AUSTRIA REDONE - "Between two Giants" [550+ Focuses]

Major Update 1.2 "Neues Leben" and the patch alongside it to the latest version of Hearts of Iron IV is currently still in development! If you want to play the mod right now you will have to revert the game´s version to 1.13.7!

The ultimate Hearts of Iron IV Mod if you seek to play Austria. Finally after almost 3 years of development I present to you Version 1.0.



The years is 1936.

Two years have passed since the Austrian Civil War occured in 1934 and the Dictator of Austria, Engelbert Dolfuß, has been assassinated by Austrian Nazis. His successor, Kurt Schuschnigg finds the austrofascist state in a precarious situation. Internal Stability is decreasing; international isolation seems a fate impossible to dodge and there is Germany; with their always pressing claim of Anschluss; the annexation of all of Austria into the German Reich.

Unstable and difficult times lay ahead. The choice, what will happen to Austria, no Europe or even the entire globe, is yours to make.

The Roadmap for the next planned major updates:



I can not say when exactly the updates will release, since Im working on the mod alone and real life is also a thing. I will post teasers on the progress of it on my discord server, so join it if youre interested.




Thanks goes to @Zischlaar for the cutting of all the teasers and trailers and the continued support.

Thanks goes aswell to the playtesters that reported back to me during the closed Alpha testing phase: @Kaanpleb, @Fredrik Kaarle, @tiger_, @HZR

Assets from following mods have been used in completing my mod:

This mod has been made out of interest in the history of Austria, and the interest in Hoi4 as a game, with Austria being an interesting nation lacking any kind of content in vanilla.

A Submod to make my mod compatible with the Road to 56 is available here: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3123839995 by ZJM




Current Version of Hearts of Iron IV Supported: 1.13.6
Current Version of the Mod: V 1.1.1

Note about DLCs: DLCs are not a hard requirement in order to play the mod, however I can not provide support if you run into issues because you do not own them, so I recommend to play with all DLCs enabled.

Should you encounter bugs, have suggestions, questions or simply want to talk about the mod, please, join the discord Server as I may or may not provide support in the steam comment section, but I will on my Discord Server.
