America At War | An American Rework

America At War is an overhaul for the United States built from the ground up with immersion, flexibility and a vanilla-like experience in mind. The military part of the national focus tree has been completely overhauled while some changes have been made to the existing tree. Much more is planned including additional work on the national focus tree, new designers, new events, new generals and more, but I've reached a point where I'd like to get player feedback on the work so far.

Inspiration is taken from work on my Hearts of Iron III mod, Realistic Progression Mod (props to jasonf for continuing the work in HOI3/HOI4), and Kaiserreich's American tree.

Current Features Summary:

• Completely redesigned military section of the USA national focuses with unique ideas and icons

• Completely redesigned political tree for the USA national tree

• Changes to existing focuses (no more every focus taking 70 days!)

• Changes to the Great Depression national spirits (harsher starting out, no more American juggernaut by 1938)

• New generals and admirals

The new military focuses aren't ideology bound, so if you decide to deviate from the historical path you can still benefit.

Compatibility

This mod should be compatible with any mod that isn't a total conversion or doesn't change the United States files. I use a ton of mods myself and haven't had any issues. The most common reported issue is with advisors or MIOs not working properly. If you experience this, it's likely due to a mod conflict.

Confirmed Mod Conflicts:

(https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3413890094) makes changes to the USA MIOs. If you use this mod with UTTNH_2.0, MIOs won't work or may not function as intended. As a workaround, you can go into the files for UTTNH_2.0 and simply delete the USA_organization.txt from \common\military_industrial_organization\organizations. I've been doing this myself when playing that mod. I may make a compatibility patch in the future if possible.

• Expert AI doesn't work with AAW. It may work if you delete the USA files in that mod, but I haven't tested this.

Note this mod was made with all DLC activated, but I don't believe any are required.

Definitely not achievement compatible.
