Description
OWB - Darkness Falls
------------------------------
4th December 2024 - Hotfix
Compatability fix for submod OWB - More Custom Paths.

14 November 2024 - Hotfix
- Updated for compatibility with OWB update 5.0.10 and HOI4 1.15
- Temp fix for missing icon for Within The Blizzard. Affects vanilla OWB too.
- Went back to vanilla high elder promotion event when seizing control of Lost Hills. Should see less instances of Immortal not being in charge.
Let me know of any issues here or on Discord.

19 August 2024 - Hotfix
- Updated national focus priority, should decrease conflicts with mods such as For the Little Guys.
5 August 2024 - Hotfix
- Fixed theory advisors & bookmark errors introduced by OWB update 5.0.9
ATA changes in main OWB game are not incorporated in Darkness Falls. Will need to do some balance testing first.
24 June 2024 - Hotfix
- Fixed a pipeline not found error on decision menu

3rd June 2024 - Version 4.1 - The Northern League
WashBOS:
- Added a dedicated focus tree section for The Northern League. The player can now invite the Broken Coast to the Northern League, just like the AI.
- Lots of bug fixes for edge cases relating to decisions and focuses by other nations.
- Oregon Chapter should no longer steal your Montana puppet.
- If Lost Hills falls before you join the Western BOS, you can take up the mantle of the BOS.
Timberline:
- Re-jigged the Pilgrim focuses. Should work much better for the AI now.
- Lots of bug fixes for edge cases relating to decisions and focuses by other nations.
- Can now choose between Montana and Dakota Chapter. If everyone dies early, you can go it alone too.
------------------------------
4th March 2024
- Updated for 5.0 compatibility. Let me know of any issues through comments below or on Discord.
- Added event for WBH when The Cause disappear
- Changed Bone Dancer focus to only be available if WBH actually owns it (not owned by allies)
- Added a Brotherhood of Steel bookmark, so you can easily pick BOS nations while DF is running
------------------------------

Darkness Falls on Oregon. Can Abel, Bear Bunyan and the Timberline stand against The Immortal?

Welcome to Darkness Falls 4.0, featuring a revamped Washington Brotherhood tree, an expanded Troll Warren tree and a brand new unique Timberline tree!
Over 500 new focuses, 50+ new events in a tightly linked story.

As The Immortal, delve into the mysteries of the P-1 complex, reforge the remnants of Lance Squadron into a true Brotherhood of Steel nation, and then decide your own fate: Seize power in the Lost Hills, become Absolute Elder in Seattle, or support the Lost Hills as they turn the Western Brotherhood of Steel into the mightiest faction in the wasteland.

As The First super mutant of the Warren, accept Timberline aid and advance your technology, so that you can better stand against the Immortal. Learn how to engage in diplomacy and invite fellow Super Mutants to your faction: Thradd's Chimerean Pact and Whoz Land. Or join forces with the Timberline, who may have a proposal you can't refuse: The return to Mariposa backed by the steel legions of the Oregon Chapter!

The Timberline stands at a crossroads. After integrating The Cause remnants, what path will it choose? Betty and her super mutants wish for a clean start, as the Northwestern Unity. Dipping is voluntary. The Seraph Pilgrims have little use for mutants. Their leader pushes for closer ties to both The Children of the Gate, and the Seraph Lords to the south. Should the Rotpurgers survive, they too can embrace the path of the Pilgrim. The true faith will come to the rest of the world, by fire or sword. In Walla Walla, Bear Bunyan sees the NCR as his best hope for survival. He is preparing an expedition to make the long journey to Shady Sands. With a bit of luck and a bit of aggressive diplomacy, the Oregon Territories will form the northern frontier of the expanded NCR. Cascadia needs to be civilized, one way or another.
Unless they turn to The Cause remnants. Abel has moved his troops and equipment to Enterprise.  Their bunkers are ready. He just needs the go ahead, and the Oregon Chapter will be born. He too stands at a crossroads. Does he stay true to the ideals of the Midwest and Glorious Purpose? To stand against the Immortal he needs allies. Perhaps the Montana Chapter could be persuaded to join forces? Betty could be sent to the First with an offer of alliance: A carrot so sweet they can't say no. Or he could walk the same path as the Immortal: Align with the Lost Hills and the Western Brotherhood of Steel. Help them reclaim California, and hopefully convince the Elders there to banish the Immortal from their ranks, for if the Immortal gets appointed Absolute High Elder of the Brotherhood of Steel, the outlook is going to be bleak.
Whatever the path, one thing is certain: Cascadia is about to go up in flames. Whose side are you on?


The plan is to release each path separately. The BOS and NCR paths are fully playable right now, but the NCR will get a major revamp next. The Pilgrim and Unity paths will be expanded later.
All of the paths will be available as game rules for the AI, so if you fancy a late game challenge, set these manually.
Thanks to Berrick for helping out with events, GFX and brainstorming.
Thanks to Basta for Warren focus tree icons.
Thanks to Discord Submodding for all their assistance.
Thanks to everyone who provided feedback during the beta.

Update pls

No, new tree is being built from the ground up. Some of it may seem familiar, and some focuses may get re-used, but it's a brand new tree, so no partial releases.

Would you not consider even just releasing the military focuses for the WashBOS first in a small uplift update? Im happy to wait for everything else but it feels so strange that the WashBOS has such a massive expansion tree in this but then every other subtree for base WashBOS is tiny :(

Months away, it's still in the design / test stage. I do have some vacation coming up, hoping to spend some time working on this.
GarlicSauce May 3 @ 5:41am 
Nice! Any ETA on when it would be released?
SilverHood  [author] May 2 @ 7:11pm 
Hi Garlic, I'm working on a total overhaul for WashBOS, The Cause and the Timberline. Air and navy will be included.

This mod rules
GarlicSauce May 2 @ 7:21am 
Will you expand on this mod in the future? I’d love to see the other trees for the Washington BOS expanded, like their economic/military/air etc considering the expansion tree absolutely dwarfs it atm

I think someone said the troll warren can join the Oregon Chapter, but it may break some stuff on the Troll Warren Focus tree. I haven't looked at it yet in detail.

does this work with "A Northern Fairy Tail"?
