The Great Model State | Manchukuo Remastered & Expanded

THE GREAT MODEL STATE | A MANCHUKUO FOCUS TREE (REMASTERED & EXPANDED)

Manchukuo, envisioned as Japan's Great Model State, stands at a pivotal crossroads. Historically a puppet under Japanese dominion, the nation's future now teeters between continued subjugation and the dawn of a new, sovereign era.

As global tensions escalate and the winds of war intensify, Manchukuo has drawn the attention of ambitious powers. The time has come to decide the fate of our nation. Will we remain under the shadow of the Japanese Empire, or will we break free and forge our own destiny?

Featuring seven different potential endings and over 300 focuses, this mod offers a new way to play as Manchukuo.

What's New:

A Truly Democratic Manchurian Focus Path - In the original TGMS, the closest option to a Democratic path was through Empress Wanrong. Now, there is a fully fleshed-out and unique Democratic path.

A Communist Focus Path - Previously, in the original TGMS, the only way to make Manchukuo Communist was at the end of Empress Wanrong's focus path. Now, the Communist rebels and bandits have their own unique focus paths.

Condensed and More Engaging Focuses - In the first version of TGMS, many focuses were unnecessarily drawn out, such as the administration focuses. These have now been condensed into one or two focuses to free up space for more engaging and fulfilling content.

Additional Nations - Originally, TGMS only provided a focus tree for Manchukuo. Now, Mengkukuo has its own short focus tree, with future expansions planned. Mengkukuo isn’t the only new nation: through the Manchurian focus tree, an autonomous government can be established in Eastern Dornod to contend with Mongolia. While this nation currently has no focus tree, one is planned for future updates.

ADDITIONAL NOTES: This mod is a remaster of the original The Great Model State (TGMS). I originally planned to release it after completing my main project, Pax Americana, but progress on that project has been slower than expected, and I've been struggling with writer's block for a while now.

Unlike the original The Great Model State (TGMS), this remaster is designed to be played in one of three ways: on its own in vanilla HOI4, with RT56, or with Hagakure. Any other combinations involving this mod and additional content are not supported.

(RT56 Compatibility is on hold)

This remaster includes fewer focuses but offers more choices for playstyles and paths, and overall, it is of higher quality than the original.

Please report any issues you encounter in the mod, along with details of what you were doing prior to encountering the bug.

The original Discord server is no longer supported, and has now been replaced with a new server: https://discord.gg/GNJ6NuDheM

I am aware that the national spirits lack GFX. No, I won’t be adding them. If you or someone you know is interested in creating GFX for the national spirits and has the skills to do so, please contact me.
