Worth it to buy waking the tiger?
Played base game of HOI4 for a while and I have just brought together for victory and death and dishonor as they add some good details to the game. But is waking the tiger worth it or are the two what I have currently got today good enough for now? :)

I personally do recommend Waking the Tiger on sale since it features some of the most expansive focus trees for the Chinese theater. Also the additional features do change the gameplay somewhat although your overall strategy will probably remain the same unless you play as China or one of the cliques.
There's also some alt history stuff going on for Germany and Japan but besides Monarchist Germany there really isn't much to those, some mods do it better in that case.

Ehh, then it depends wether or not you want the other features.
Those being sending airwing volunteers, manual trait assignment to general & marshalls, activate general abilities, send attaché (mostly irrelevant in singeplayer), more decision which include harvesting otherwise unobtainable resources or Japanese alt history (which imo are badly done).
If you would like to go alt-history Germany then i would recommend Deutschland Erwache 2 mod instead.
Personally i do consider the Chinese nations focus tree a big part of the DLC and without it i will be far more hesitant to recommend the DLC even on sale.

Im mean I am not planning on playing in chiona theatre right now and would it be worth it playing as germany for instance such as more complexity and option diplomacy and what not?
