I briefly review the Python tools I’ve written to help with Hearts of Iron IV modding.

Building Europe.

Hitting the road with my new balance values to get a Schlieffen-esque opening invasion.

Using flowchart models to adapt HoI IV’s combat system to the sluggish stalemates of 1916.

Initial forays into balancing models for the mod, mainly to get an idea of unit limits.

Making things a little easier for myself.

My grand plans for a HoI IV total overhaul mod.

Figuring out the sweet-spot of resource frequency and distribution.

Outlining plans for a HoI IV mod to bring dire food and oil shortages to the game.

Applying and testing my balance model in the game.
