this gives me warm fuzzies of my CSA playthroughs in kaiserreich. crawling from the ashes of revolution to lead the International in an epic world spanning crusade against the monarchists and imperialists. all flavors of socialism, from M-L, syndicalism to anarchism uniting together. Landing troops in the ports of Spain to help the CNT-FAI defend their shores and finally marching on Berlin. Then starting a game of Stellaris as a Union of Soviets earth.
Have you tried The New Order? It looks like Nazi trash but I'd argue that it's actually anti-fascist. What it does really well is it has vignettes showing how life is under your leadership. Playing as Leninist Sablin's Buryat SSR is absolutely blessed, you get popups about a father being freed from a nazi concentration camp and being reunited with his daughter. Of a man who has to deal with his friends not being interested in learning how to read as an adult, but how worth it it is to him to be able to read bed time stories to his daughter. Of a peasant woman deciding to bring the communist revolution into her own life by deciding to do her husbands job of chopping wood for the stove, he can wash his own damn clothes!
It's great. The community is horrible, don't interact with it. But the mod is a ton of fun.
That mod has some of the most complex mechanics I've ever seen in a Paradox game, in a good way. Like, balancing power between two leaders? Try three, with a tracker that looks like those soil composition diagrams. The resistance mechanic for England is really cool as well, and their storyline with the lesbian couple is really nice.
Can also vouch that it isn't pro-Nazi at all, they're portrayed negatively in every country I've tried.
Yeah the mod is very openly anti-nazi, the entire theme of the mod is showing how the nazi ideology is unsustainable and will inevitably collapse in on itself while also showing a story of how dark life would be under it.
The idea of electing Michael Harrington as PotUS fills me with dread. I can balance the budget of a siberian soviet republic, I have no idea how to handle a senate.
I just 'finished' (as in played out the research tree and was given a text popup saying thanks for playing) the Siberian Black Army which involved reunifying Russia into the Russian Free Territory.
I'm not sure what else there is to do, fascist Europe still exists but since you can't declare war whenever you like I suppose I have to be satisfied with that
No. TNO is liberal horseshoe propaganda from an anarchist who bans anyone he deems as a "Tankie". While the Sablin playthrough is good it's also just about the only good portrayal of socialism in the entire mod, and it's only good because it's not "authoritarian".

Yep, it's an alpha. It's unfortunate that there isn't post reunification content, but it's still a fun ride on the way there.

TNO is fucking trash.
LMAO I do that too, with stellaris too
The moment when you unite the country and they let you make Solidarity Forever the national anthem is just perfect
I suck at HOI4. :( I can't even finish a game.
I'm going to acquire Stellaris now. That sounds dope.
make sure to take Shared Burdens when you create your empire and pick the Soviet advisor!
