Overview

As Europe teeters on the brink of war, the Vatican suffers its own unique and mysterious crisis. Pope Pius XI has begun hearing voices, only whispers at first, but they grow with each passing night. He is convinced they are of divine origin, although many suspect the old man has gone mad. Could these ethereal voices lead the Papacy into a new golden era, or might they spell doom for the whole of Christendom and beyond?

This mod aims to create a fresh and bizarre experience for players with the introduction of the Vatican City State. Follow a story full of branching paths and a heavy dose of the supernatural, building up the Vatican’s military and industrial prowess along the way. I worked on this mod in my free time over many months, and I plan to continue working on it for a while.

Features

• A new nation, the Vatican, with its own expansive focus tree, including paths for democracy and communism, both with their own sub-paths - the non-aligned and fascist routes will be completed in the future

• 100+ new events to heighten the flavour, narrative, and gameplay options as you steer the Papacy towards heavenly glory or demonic ruin

• Dozens of new potential leaders, generals, admirals, and advisors based on historical and biblical figures

• New portraits, focus icons, loading screen art, formable nations, and dynamic puppet names to enhance immersion

Compatibility

This mod alters the world map slightly, adding a new state for the Vatican, so it will likely experience compatibility issues with overhaul mods like RT56. Mods that implement minor changes should work fine, but you will need to test them out.

Enjoy!

I hope this mod proves to be as unique an experience for you to play as it was for me to make. If you are interested in using any of the assets here, or simply want to discuss the mod in private, do not hesitate to get in touch.
