The Desert Gambit – A Kaiserreich Submod
The Desert Gambit is a mod that aims to gradually rework the Kaiserreich Content in the Middle East, with more content for both the countries in the region, and powerful outside forces. Below is the content of the current version.
Updated the content to fit the current Kaiserreich mod.
Implemented the new Faction mechanic in the new DLC.
A new focus tree with three path under two monarchs (currently planing focus)
A new military tree (finished and waiting for other content)
A new Industry tree (finished and waiting for other content)
Japanese Pre-war economic tree (finished and waiting for other content)
Japanese Post War tree, with involvement in the Middle East and Mid Asia. (finished and waiting for other content)
Update the political landscape, and match the existing lore in the rework proposal. (brain storming)
5 key performance indicators to track your progress at modernization.
74 new focuses and reworked focuses.

Added a short path for Nationalist Iran under the leadership of Abdolhossein Teymourtash, similar to the existing Iran Rework. You can set him as the leader of Iran In Game Rules. More might be done about the political tree and gameplay of Iran at a later date.

Reworked 1 focus related to diplomacy with Iran
Added an event chain to negotiate with Iran regarding the Ashgabat

Added a mission to build the Aswan High Dam
Added numerous decisions to aid Egypt, and invite them to the Phalanstère
The mod is designed to be minimally intrusive, as I had tried to mod the content in the lightest way possible. Almost all the files, excluding the Focus Tree files, which is necessary to be replaced, are new files. Thus compatibility shouldn’t be an issue with most other kaiserreich mods that doesn’t focus on the same region. Please report bugs if you encounter any.
The mod is currently available in English and Simplified Chinese.
I welcome to suggestions on gameplay and balance improvements. I also welcome ideas on how certain focus trees should be structured and the characters included.
Many thanks to the Kaiserreich Dev Team and Kaiser Cat Cinema for the inspiration, the setting, the mod and the graphic contents. And most importantly thank you for taking a look!
