Italy Expanded

Description
Hello and first of all thank you for taking the time to look at my mod. Being my first true mod it may not be of the best standard but I hope it's still somewhat enjoyable. It aims to expand the quite limited Italian national focus tree and make it more diversified for the player.

This mod can follow a historical focus order with only minor adjustments from the vanilla Italian focus tree.

Updates
  • Update 27/12/21: Added decisions to form Italian protectorates including Italian East Africa.
  • Update 17/6/21: Compatible with v1.10.7. Localisation has been streamlined to allow for usage with other mods as well.
  • Update 14/6/20: Now compatible with HOI 4 v1.9.3 with some small graphical changes and decision balancing.
  • Update 25/4/20: The mod has been made compatible with HOI 4 v1.9.1 and some small bug fixes have been made.
  • Update 13/9/19: Added events for the new branch allowing you to choose to setup Croatia and Serbia as puppet regimes. Also added event for the Support Hungarian Claims focus.
  • Update 08/9/19: Brand new Pact of Rome has been added. Work together with Austria and Hungary to prevent the expansion of the Third Reich as well as the possibility of dismantling Yugoslavia.

Languages Supported & Contributions

Idea Changes

  • Added an idea Divergent Aircraft Production that increases the research time for all Italian aircraft to represent the reliance on biplanes.
  • Added a synthetic resource concern, AGIP which can be unlocked by prospected oil in Libya.
  • Added another ship designer available for Italy - Ansaldo as an Atlantic Fleet Designer.

Focus Changes

  • Expanded Industry Branch to include tech bonuses for Nukes and Rocketry with Gaetano Crocco .
  • Expanded Fortification Branch for alpine forts against Germany as well as coastal forts for the colonies.
  • Expanded Colonial Development branch for directed mostly at Libya with the possibility of integrating them. Also allows for developing the new colony of Ethiopia.
  • Changes Special Forces focus to increase the Italian Special forces Cap by 5.00% representing their expansive use of paratroopers, mountaineers and frogmen.
  • Adds a Unified Aircraft Development focus to remove the air research debuff.
  • Adds a formable nation decision to form Imperial Italy and core all states that were historically claimed.
  • Changes Befriend [Country] focuses to unlock decisions to invite them to the Italian faction if created.
  • Adds a develop Spain focus to the Invite Spain to faction tree to give them better footing as an ally.
  • Rearrangement and changes of some focuses and their effects to be more historical.
  • Changes the Claims on France focus so that it doesn't require Vichy France to have both Savoy and Corsica to fire. (Thus letting Italy gain Corsica if it owns Savoy or vice versa, it will still work normally even without Italy being able to secure both states.)
  • Brand new Branch! Form the Pact of Rome as Italy giving you more options as to decided the fate of Central Europe. Prevent Anschluss, Dismantle Yugoslavia and take the initiative against the Third Reich.
  • Adds and modifies localisation for all new and changed focuses in as close to vanilla language as possible for people who want to stay immersed.

No sorry, the new tree made this one redundant since it addressed nearly everything.
eldo.gusti 30 Mar, 2023 @ 7:26am 
is it updated?

Thanks for the answer.

There are a total of 73 focuses (51 of which are the default Italian ones with some changes in places).
iamtheknight3 22 May, 2022 @ 11:19am 
Just wondering, around (preferably exactly, but I'm fine with just an estimate) how many focuses are there?
Portal #0  [author] 19 May, 2022 @ 4:02am 
Alright sorry for the wait everyone, the mod has now been updated.

It's weird because some of the features work some no. For example I can make reichcomisariat of Italian east Africa but it didn't show the focus tree.

No it should work for vanilla Hoi4. Could you try resubscribing? Otherwise I'll check if I've accidentally broken something.
