Mod «Executor Redux» for Hearts of Iron 4 (v1.12.1 - 1.12.13)

Executor Redux is a complete expansion to the original mod under the same name. Redux expands the content of Executor with a bigger emphasis on fun and interesting gameplay. Much effort went into re-coding the original content of Executor to a more up to date modding standard as of No Step Back. Redux features many focus changes and updates to existing paths for the player, offering a fresh new experience.

Redux plans to expand into several different territories playing bringing in the Rebel Alliance as a counter to the Imperials, and a extra (meme) playable country being the Grand Army of the Republic.

EARLY TESTING

As this is the initial early testing version of Redux, the Imperial Focus Tree with all of its ideas have been implemented. Further expansion will occur with new focus widening out the choices for the Empire.

Events have been reedited and some of their rewards and consequences have been changed, but their current state leaves room to further explore. The plan is to have the Empire to be able to always be able to do new decisions and have story events that shape the play experience throughout a session. Current launch of Redux will be for ironing out and suggesting what type of content players would like to see.

NEW CONTENT

IMPERIAL COMMAND

--NOTE-- all original focuses have been adjusted on time to complete and are now shorter due to the abundance of new focuses

New Focuses

1. new military focuses for the Empire, allowing the Imperial Player to diversify the army of the Empire into a larger force focusing on sheer grunt numbers rather than quality.
2. new economic/industry focuses allow the Empire to further expand its industry by either focusing on a quick industrialization, long term building or quick access to arms factories.
3. new political tree for the Empire is all about rebuilding the Executor. This path has been expanded and combined with the original's war plans and will eventually be expanded outward to allow more concentrated efforts in different theaters of war.

New Ideas

New ideas have been implemented throughout new and old focuses to help the Empire expand their gameplay providing a whole host of benefits for the Imperial player.

Future Content

REBEL ALLIANCE

New "Country"

Rebel Alliance will act as the counter to the Empire. Rebels will be much more story driven through focuses and events in comparison to the Empire, and have a wider selection of leaders. Expansion will be limited in the early stages of the game, so the Rebels will be able to send out volunteers at a much faster rate than any other country available within HOI4. Rebels will get many buffs that will allow them to truly act as a Rebel force, being able to interact with a myriad of different countries through events, focuses, and volunteers. Eventualy, Rebel Alliance will slightly expand before going into a war to prevent the Empire's expansion upon the world.
