Best Cold War Mod Ever? | Hearts of Iron 4 [HOI4: Iron Curtain Mod]

The Iron Curtain Mod has quickly become one of my favorite in the HOI4 workshop. This game had multiple alternative history twists, the best of course being the return of the German Empire. Let me know if you'd like to see more of this Cold War mod in the future!

No joking America bro, is cuz is such a weird union, its rememberable

Yukio Shinmon not that weird panarabism used to be extremely powerful

Aye Drew, this mod actually does use the Hitler is in Argentina conspiracy, it's in one of the Germany's focus trees. You can get him back, even though he "died" earlier.

[@saelk09]

it have a 10% possibility of comming back do

[@gamingconveyor4743]

That focus tree is bigger than my future

[@sdfopsdmsdofjmp7863]

Anything is, except my future:(

[@SlavicUnionGaming]

Im sure my Russian family ancestors date all the way back to the beginning of Muscovy or possible even further than that..

[@d3tective949]

[@sixtenfrid6895]

Because you don’t have one. Like the rest of us

[@culturecroissant3166]

Hey dude ur a new mod on the age of civilization 2 unofficial community

[@mortenbund1219]

Drew there is a focus called "DDR_expedition_to_south_america" Which gives you the event "The return of the Führer"

[@jimatwood6915]

Was it secretly truman who made JFK go AFK?

[@JohnFKennedy.]

No

[@quickdrawmacaw2497]

Tito was actually a leader of the Non-Aligned movement IRL cause him and Stalin didn't really get along and Tito hated taking orders from the Soviets.

[@zurdddtk3025]

Not only Tito but also Nehru,it wasn't just Yugoslavia which founded the movement

I know I'm late but drew could you do an ai only for rise and fall, I would also love to see it done in the old slower, unedited format you used to do, it's nice to have a series to gradually watch, rather than single episodes with jokes thrown in.

I guess they have individual focus trees and can declare full independence? I'm not familiar with this mod.
