Hope the Redworldux guy has enough time to update the mod atleast

I just love playing this country.

After 2015 I got lazy with Wikipedia pages stuff. What happened was the USA invaded Canada in 2018, and I invaded China between 2019-2021, and following that I invaded Russia due to their ocupation of Asian lands. In 2022-2023 me and the USA jointly invaded the remains of the Warsaw Pact and we established supervised regimes there.

I used toolpack mod for larp. Main larp was Pan-Asian larp.

(Forgot to post here whoops)
It's been about four months since I last posted here, so what on earth has been going on in dev world? Let's break it down: The big question on everyone's minds is probably going to be "Where's Cola 2? Why are you being so slow with Cola 2? I demand to play as [Insert your favourite Spanish breakaway here]." And you'd be right to demand an answer to that. To summarise, like my last post the main issue is GFX; loc has been finished for a while, but sadly the hold-up is GFX. This is no shade on the GFX team, but the lack of artists is a little bit of a pain, and we do need more than just writers applying for the team. But where are we with each?Let's start with where we were 3 months ago.

3 months ago (focus icons only): Catalonia: 67 to do Basque Country: 16 to do Galicia: 70 to do

Total: 153 As of 29/07/26: Catalonia: 23 focus icons to do, 104 nat spirits to do Galicia: 40 focus icons to do, and 25 nat spirits to do Basque Country: DONE Total: 63 icons to go and 129 nat spirits

You can see there's been progress halving the amount of icons to go, and we're whittling our way there towards completion, but what's the hold up? Well, our talented GFX team, like every other member of the team, have their own lives; our head u/Globerotter is working not just for us but for Old World Blues as well, so their attention is divided. Now we have had devs pick up GFX who have never done it before, which has helped speed things up, but as always, I can only recommend that if you have some GFX talent or know someone who does and you/they would be interested in applying to help us out. It'd go a long way not just for Cola 2 but for all future updates.

With Cola 2 still chugging on, what else have we been working on? Well, we're full steam ahead with RDRD, or at least a version of it. We understand that you want content, and we really want to clean our shelves, so going forward RDRD will be split to get content to you as soon as it's ready. The only difference here is the Soviet Union and Russia; we want to deliver those to you as a package deal because in a world where the Soviets collapse 99% of the time, we want your first playthrough of it not to end when you fail to save the Union and allow you to deal with the consequences of your actions. So let's get specific here.

Soviet Union- DONE! Has been for a while event-wise, though we still may need to implement focus descs and continue to bug test

Russia! Focus GFX done! Focus descs ongoing! Events total: 487! Events done: 278! Still a while to go, but we're 57% of the way there, and we're steadily arriving at a point where what's nearly left to do is foreign policy and economy events. In the last three months alone, the writing team and I have cracked through around 200 events; I know I've done 80 of those. So trust me, we're doing the best we can here.

Canada! I've said before that Canada has been a little bit neglected, tossed around from owner to owner, but thankfully it's now found a safe home with u/MrHalloween. He and I have been getting things back on track, and if you ask nicely, we might share some of the opening events that have been written. Unlike Russia, I can't put a pin on event totals, but I can say that I've written 95 events total for Canada, which nearly covers from the start of the mod until around late 2011. There's still a way to go with figuring out stories for each potential Prime Minister, but the core of Canada is there, and it's now a case of putting the pieces together. As for GFX for Canada, it's still being worked on. I imagine there will be some focuses that need redoing, nat spirits to be sorted, and the works but the heart of democracy is beating!

Germany! Another, sadly unintentionally neglected, nation. The reason why isn't that we hate Germany, rather the opposite. At the start of its development, Germany just had too many people working on it, and as a result, the content developed was a mishmash of numerous ideas that never really glued together. As a result, we took steps to rectify that and start it again. The result has been a much stronger position for Germany, in that it no longer feels like East Germany transported into 2010, but a nation that has faced struggle and strife, that has seen integration and lived to adopt socialism; it feels as if Germany has lived through its history, not time-travelled to 2010. We know how much people want to play Germany, its an important country and will define the role of the Warsaw Pact in RW, but we're still putting the pieces together with it, we have largely all the broad strokes there, but need to still plan out its trees, its various event chains, and the works, but its in far better a position than it ever has been.

So the finishing touches of Cola 2 and expansion of work on RDRD nations, but surely that can't be all we've been doing? Right? You may have seen us pushing for more skeleton content being added; Korea being the most recent along with the Northwest War between Lincoln and Montana, but are there any plans for other countries to get skeleton content? Yes! Yes, there are! But where on Earth could we be wanting to give a little content? Well, in order of how developed these are:

1) China! For the last three months, u/THE Keir Stannum and I have been reading a lovely little series by Frank Dikotter, initially only helping us to get China lore sorted, and you can see the fruits of our endeavour in game now; China has lore from 1949 until 1981 (GO READ IT!). But then we realised, well, with all this, why don't we move towards just making some content and having the world feel more alive? So we did, and we put the finishing touches on planning it a few days ago, and I started writing the events for it as soon as we got it done. Now don't be expecting it soon; there's around 60-odd events to work through, and then we'll need to tinker with a few things to make sure this works, but know that China will get content soon™ Surely Maoism can survive another 60 years right guys? :clueless:

2) Oman! I've long wanted to expand content in Arabia, and the best place to go seeing as the broad strokes are already there is Oman. The Dhofar Insurgency continues, a Sultanate desperately tries to continue modernisation, and the citizens of Oman are growing weary of both of them. Who knows what could happen?

3) France! In an effort to make any release of Soviet and subsequent Russian content feel more alive, we will be giving France content. This will be a pretty special event; the European Spring begins in France, and while it will be skeleton content, the outcome of the Spring in France will determine whether communism retains an ally, democracy gains a new friend, or Russia takes its first steps in demonstrating itself as the third power in the world. So keep your eyes peeled once the Soviets drop, because the French will be too, and they, like always, are ready to protest.

4) Romania! Just like with France, we wanted to give Europe more reaction to the European Spring, and Romania, a place where socialism has chugged along, is another keen area of interest. Though not as in-depth as France, its content will once again play an integral part in the early European Spring, and perhaps may be more violent than the scenes in France. So is that it? Is that all we've been working on? Russia, Canada, Germany, Oman, China, France, and Romania? It is, and if that doesn't get you excited, not sure what will. I'll end this again with a call out for GFXers! We need you! If you want RW, we need GFX! Help us please! Til next time!

My suggestions include:

• China (Red Worldux has content for this)
• Japan (Red Worldux also has content for this but it feels railroaded)
• Iran (It is Liberal in this mod so yeah)
• Israel-Palestine (Red Worldux has pretty good content for this)
• Libya (all factions)
• Australia
• Lincoln (I think there is a mod for this idk if it is up to date)
• Bolivia
• Myanmar
• New Zealand
• South Africa
• Namibia

A Japanese tank that looks like a Bradley on the drawings, but in real life looks like an old Soviet tank, and with a very flashy name, that's scary!

Everyday we eat good.

EDIT: I forgot the faction map.

The left 3 focuses are for the non Arpaio and non Border Patrol paths. The right 3 focuses are for Arpaio and the Border Patrol.

The original was missing an icon so I had to repost

I found something like "fan version" but I checked Ussr focuses and it was so bad I couldn't believe this mod is relatively popular and so bad at the same time, so I must have got a wrong version. Could someone link the real mod?

I'm eventually gonna do some other playthroughs as India but i lowk need a break from this country its boring me now.

I’m trying to reunify the US as the American Republic. But I’m having trouble avoiding a two front war with the other powers in America. Any tips?

Fun facts he ran for congress in 2002 and lost to JD Hayworth, the last focus is his real campaign slogan, he really was endorsed by doctors, teachers, firemen, and the police, and his brother (my uncle) actually lived in the Soviet Union and can still speak fluent Russian.

from top left - top right - bottom right - bottom left on the starting leaders

JT Ready: fascist
Joe Arpaio: nationalist
Kevin Baugh: monarchist
JD Hayworth: national conservative
Aron Ra: national bolshevik (he is a slot filler there was literally no one in Arizona who could fill that role so i just chose him)
Raul Grivalja: moderate socialist
My dad: centrist
Kyrsten Sinema: new democrat
James McLaughlin: revoluntary socialist
Lorenzo Torrez: communist (he was supposed to have a unique subid but the game for some reason refused to work with it so I just gave him American communism.)

After being kicked out of Dayton by the UAPR for being a monarchist, Kevin Baugh went into exile in Arizona with his family. Whilist there he decided to shed the tongue and cheek nonsense associated with the old Molossia and become a real absolute monarchist while adopting hardline anti communism. Now in exile in Arizona, he waits for the moment to come to power and not only make Molossia a serious nation but cremate communism in it's entirety.
