American Flavor Overhaul

A small patch to American Flavor Overhaul has been released.

The American Civil War JE will now complete properly when the USA wins the war. Now the Appomattox Treaty event will fire when the USA wins the war (i.e. the JE is completed)

Along with this, Civil War skirmish events have had their war support effects reduced to +25 war support. This should make it easier to end the war quicker when victory is imminent, but this is only a temporary fix.

Finally, some localization issues regarding American political parties have been patched.

The American Civil War was arguably the most important event in American history. It redefined the United States as a nation and idea. It led to a massive shift in the political landscape, the repercussions of which can still be felt today. It resulted in a decade of political, economic, and cultural reconstruction, and it led to many questions over how the Constitution truly is interpreted. Unfortunately, Victoria 3 does not model any of this in the base game. In Vanilla, the American Civil War is triggered if the out-of-government Landowners become sufficiently angry enough to start a revolution over anything. And even then, given the way the political system works in Vic3, the states that secede are almost never in the South. This mod aims to fix all of that, and now even more.

The American Civil War can now fire in 2 main ways, resulting in two different Civil Wars:

Confederate States of America: The United States elects an abolitionist President in 1860.

Free States of America: The United States elects a pro-slavery President in 1860.

The American Civil War is completely unavoidable as of now. The war WILL occur beginning in 1861, and typically lasts until about 1864-65. Dozens of journal entries, events, decisions, and more flavor content build up to the American Civil War, from compromises to wars to Congressional decisions.

-Beginnings of the Spanish-American War flavor content.

-Continuing fixes and patches.

-Far more flavor between 1836-1845, 1850-1860, and 1870-1890.
-Fixes and patches.
-Finding ways to lower the amount of railroading necessary, in order to allow more unique, organic, and fun games to take place, depending on what your goal for your individual run is!

I am very much active in checking this mod’s page, reading comments, and sifting through the mod’s files to fix any issues for the next patch. As of now, I’m back to the drawing board with plans for future content. Once I finish the Spanish-American War chain, I will need to look back on what I’ve made and decide where I can fit in new content. Regardless, I hope you enjoy American Flavor Overhaul.
