Baptized in Fire

Compatible with version 1.13.7
Compatible with all DLCs

Overview:

Baptize in Fire is a historical mod primarily for multiplayer. It has additional content and balance changes which provide for a more stable and enjoyable multiplayer experience. These changes, however, mean this mod is not recommended for singleplayer play due to the AI being largely disabled.

Baptized in Fire is a total overhaul mod that aims to provide a balanced World War 2 experience. The mod features playability improvements that focus on the player's experience against other players. It strives to provide great gameplay, within the rich history of the Second World War.

Baptized in Fire includes unique tech trees, focus trees, designers, and advisors for all majors, and important minors, to ensure you are immersed playing your country of choice. Moreover focus trees can last late into the war, and units on the field are precious, as the industrial capacity of a nation takes time to develop.


New National Focus Trees for:
USA
UK
Germany
Italy
Soviet Union
Japan
Commonwealth Minors
Axis Minors
Reworked and improved Paradox's DLC focuses

Authors' Note:
Due to the launcher being quite bad delete C:\Users\yourname\Documents\Paradox Interactive\Hearts of Iron IV\mod\ugc_1682664456 otherwise it crashes if you have downloaded the mod already before 1.9
It is advised NOT to use any other mods, most files have been changed and compability is rather low
Play with historical focus on for the intended experience
