PFU Multiplayer Mod

Description
Overview

Mod development is currently paused for next month atleast, i lost alot of will to mod because of the terrible DLC. ~ 1/19/22

The definitive HOI4 MP mod is back!

PFU is a historical overhaul mod for HOI4 that seeks to make the game more accurate to World War II by dozens of new events, decisions, focus trees, flavor choices, realistic combat changes, new units and new theaters of war that are often neglected, while still keeping balance adjustments, quality of life improvements, anti-exploit mechanics, and runtime optimizations typical of other purely competitive MP mods. PFU is the only competitive multiplayer mod that reliably and consistently has games go to 1943-1945. While PFU can be enjoyed in singleplayer, it is intended and balanced for a multiplayer audience of 15-30 players per game.

I've spent over 1000 hours adding new content and improving/smoothening out the game as much as i can, if you enjoy the mod please give it a thumbs up. If you have any questions, ideas, complaints, or bugs please post them below in the comments or add me as a friend.

Please note this mod is NOT compatible with non English game versions, or any other non cosmetic mods. If you would be interested in playing this mod, we host regularly on https://discord.gg/4hR8wfNYHY.

WIP:
-Improving game stability, smoothening out existing focuses, events, and general gameplay. 95%
-Naval rebalance. 89%
-General balance of modifiers/macro. 75%
-Adding new flavour decisions for Italy, Commonwealth and Japan. 80%
-Expanded Chinese war with new states and dynamic modifiers. 60%
-Expanded North Africa with more provinces, terrain types, and VPs. 55%
-Expanded Europe/Russia with new urban provinces. 35%
-Alternate and historical scripted peace deals so game can continue in certain situations, like fall of Soviets and allies want to continue, Japan capitulating, China war, fall of Germany for cold war scenario in 1945, ect. 40%
-Rebalancing/railroading nuclear weapons to make players unable to put their entire production on them in 1945+. 0%
-Adding welcome and general information events at the start, to help newer players, catered for each country. 0%


Main Features:
(Missing lots of changes that should be here, temporary until i make full changelog)
