The Great War mod is a total conversion modification for Napoleon: Total War. It creates an authentic representation of World War 1-era tactics, strategies and general warfare within the game. Including stunning new visuals that include entirely new models and textures for equipment, vehicles and more, the mod immerses you into the era with brand new gameplay unlike anything you've experienced in Total War before.
Using the new square agent icon model we gave the Soviets a new agent icon/roundel of the classic red star.
Hyped
BDIZZLE356 Are the imperial Russian units specifically attached to the absolute monarchy government type? If not, then they should be, so that when the revolution happens, the collapse of Russia is total and complete. Having the imperial Russian units attached to the absolute monarchy government type would mean that when the revolution occurs, all imperial Russian units are disbanded, and the generals as well, because this is what happened historically. It would force the player to create the Red Army like what happened historically, because historically the Bolsheviks had to create an entire new army because the old Imperial Army that served the tsar and the provisional government had totally disintegrated.
If it is possible, after the revolution, the general roster should have new generals which were soviet generals historically, like Simeon Budyonny, the general with an army of cavalry.
Yes, Russian units are tied to government types and disbanded when a revolution happens.
That's not possible for generals though. Their recruitment can be checked by government type, but they can't be disbanded through it.
Is it possible for the general's unit to change though?
don_durandalBDIZZLE356 Will there be nay unique White Russian troops with their distinct uniforms? For example, Kornilov,Drozdov,Markov,Alexeyev "colour" regiments? Some of these were issued British uniforms with volunteer insignia.
They are not a priority since they are emergent. They will most likely just use the Russian Empire units.

So,when this comming out ? Year - two ?
I am pretty sure the star should be fully red, without the white edge. That how it was during the civil war. White edge more related to WW2.
Ah ok. When I was researching it the red star with the outline came up for the air force and was adopted in 1927 but that was when they officially became the Soviet Union.
I'll change it to a solid red star since its more indicative of the civil war era.
Thanks. I think for fast reference you can use this wiki article in russian "Опознавательные знаки военно-воздушных сил". Its also showing evolution of insignias over the time. For some reason equal article in english does not have such nice table(
imho, this roundel variant would fit the best

Different variants of insignias of the red airforce during CW you can see on this page as well

Please work more on Romania and find these Romanian names for leaders, generals, captains, officers, gentlemen and more. Youtube.com HOI4 Romanian voices, choose some suitable
cant wait for this beauty to update!
Can't wait for this to come out
Tell me please:1) I have version 5.1.5 is worth, but it does not have French tanks .where can I get a FT-17 reno? 2) the patch 5.1.5 is installed, but the launcher writes 5.1.4. So it should be? 3) on the last German artillery gun in battle, you can use gas, but in the company can not. All the research has been studied ,what is the problem
Thats because the French tanks arent in 5.1.5, they will be in version 6.
How come Soviet Russia is called Russian Empire in the picture? Will that be changed or is that not possible?
Also, I thought the mod uses the RSFSR flag and not the Soviet Union one?
The name of the faction can't be changed for different government types.

Funny to see the shoulder straps because they did not use them in the Red Army until 1943, as it was considered a sign of a previous regime, i.e the White forces like imperial and/or republican-bourgeoisie.
Campaign models are tied to factions. They can't be changed for government types. Only the colour can be changed.
So no, we can't make a strap-less version for Soviet Russia, otherwise default Imperial Russia won't have them either.
Loving this mod!! I know this is an old thread but does anyone know how to trigger the Russian Revolution?
