Making History: The Great War - Community Patch

Update June 14

The colonial Railways are completely overhauled representing both historic rails as well as representing navicable rivers routes. The Belgian Congo, Portuguese colonies, and numerous smaller holdings benefitted from this. As well as additional rails along navicable rivers in Russia and along the Danube basin.


There is now a direct connection between Danubia (northern Bulgaria) and Banat in souther Hungary to represent the ease of trade and tranport along the Danube river.
Marmara Sea is now considered a Canal controlled from Constantinople, no longer can the Royal navy or Russia just sail right through the Bosporus like they own the place, they must fight tooth and nail for control.
Suez Canal now grants port access to most sea going countries so they no longer need to sail around Africa in peace time.


Resource production especially in the colonies was expanded both to meet economic demand and increase the importance of the colonies. New coal metal and oil deposits are added to some parts of Africa, Europe, and Asia.


Some new factories that came with the new cities were removed to maintain balance between countries and stabalize demand for raw materials. Increased the power point value of factories.


Farming upgrades added across many colonies. Hungary, Ukraine, and some river valleys saw similar upgrades do their nature as major world bread baskets historically.

Decreased the food efficiency of open field farms and increased the farming efficiency in some region types such as plains. Reduced power point value of farms.
