Battle of the Seelow Heights

Description

The Battle of the Seelow Heights is a mod aimed at creating a historically immersive recreation of one of the most chaotic months of World War II. Set either various months before, or a mere four days before the Battle of Berlin, or during the Battle of Berlin, play as either the German Reich or Japanese Empire and challenge yourself to see how long you can hold off the Allied onslaught.

World War II is coming to an end. The Wehrmacht is defeated, retreating on all fronts as the Allied and Soviet onslaught continues. The Allies rush towards the Elbe River, while the Red Army shells Berlin. Losing on every front, Goebbels calls for a total war and a final victory, to no avail.

In the Pacific, the disastrous Operation Ten-Go has crippled Japan's once-mighty fleet. US naval landings on Iwo Jima, Okinawa, and the Philippines have further cornered them. The success of Operation Ichi-Go offers a glimmer of hope, raising questions about whether Japan can end the war in China before the US reaches Tokyo.


Is this mod compatible with an existing or old save?
- It is not.
Is this mod compatible with ‘X’ Mod?
- Generally, due to the amount of files changed, it is not compatible with any form of larger mod. Smaller, or Ironman-compatible mods usually work but should be proceeded with caution in mind.

For the full experience, play with all Expansion DLCs enabled.

Has even the moder himself made it succesfully as Germany? Any opening strategy and guide?

I also discovered a hidden modifier dramatically increasing Japan's wargoal justification time, so my plan to win in China and use that 10 day wargoal justification on the USSR to seize every supply hub in the region and cripple their ability to invade me has been foiled. Although with that modifier I do think it should go away if China has been annexed.

When does the setting sun debuff on Japan go away (or does it ever)? I have conquered China, held the Philippines and Indonesia and really have not lost anything other than minor island holdings. Maybe I am just impatient with it only being June 1945.

I find a bug. The tanks used by the armored divisions of the United States and Italy only had the shape and data of the chassis.

Every time I try to play (Trying to play as the Soviets for fun), it crashes while loading, regardless of the start date I pick.

this may be a dumb question but will we ever see start dates in late 1944?

It also doesn't seem to do it if I just start the game and act similarly, I play speed too and pause for commands like I would and it runs just fine, only when I assign order, do production etc. does it crash

I tried on a new save file, similar set up and am still getting constant crashes, I don't know if its an issue on my side or dlc related, I have until Gotterdamerung. But it's really weird, if I speed 5 not too zoomed in its fine, but as soon as I regularly pause and play speed 2 it crashes.

I also just really loved the head canon of Eva escaping the Bunker on a mission for vengence.
