Creating a faction??

[Storm_Chasee]

I see that in the game I'm playing I can create a faction, but I don't see the mechanism on how to do it. How do you do it?

On a side question do airplanes go to carriers after being built automatically (like equipment going to divisions) or is their a different mechanism for that? I see you can set the default types of planes go to the carrier type.

Unless you have the national spirit/focus you cannot create a faction as a minor. You can create one by clicking on the "double white flag" pop-up button.

If you carrier already has a set number of planes on it, newly built ones will automatically reinforce/upgrade the planes on your ship. Idk wheter it will resupply when your ships are on a mission tho.

You can manually set the number by clicking on the AIR map view and clicking on the little plane button near your port where your carriers are.

You can create a faction as minor if you follow down the below focus tree:

Political Effort > Collectivist Ethos > Pick either the facist branch or communist branch > follow it down to Ideoligical Fanaticism.

Once you've got all of those focuses complete you will be able to create a faction.

This only works for minor nations with the standard game national focuses. Bigger nations such as Japan have their own focus trees which give you an option to create your own faction, however this will only allow you to create a pre-planned faction that was built into the game.

As for carrier aircrafts. Airwings are automatically asigned to a CV upon it's launch according to it's specifications during construction and the wings then take their material from your reserves just like any other airwing.

You can alter the airwings just like any land based ones using F2 screen whenever the ships are not engaged in a mission or using L screen whenever you feel like it.
L screen gives you a list of all currently active airwings, clicking on the group you want in their opens up their stations screen where you can alter, add or remove wings to your hearts content.

Thanks for the replies.

I'm playing the US using the Great War mod. The link said I can create The American Concordat faction and invite the Mexican opposition and Panama into it. The Mexican Opposition exists. What "double white flag" pop-up button? I don't see it. Where does it pop up?

Venidis, I'm playing as Buhtan; what button/thn=ing do I click that actually allows me to create a faction? I have researched Ideological Fanaticism, as well.

You need to click on the nation that you want to create a faction with (with same ideoligy as you) and there should be a button below Justify War goals saying Create Faction, if this is greyed out it will tell you why when you hover over. If the button is green all you need to do is create a faction name, once this is done a news popup will show saying you have created a new faction.

Hope this helps
