Rivers of Blood - An Alternative History Mod for Hearts of Iron IV, set in dark days of 1934

Rivers of Blood, or RoB for short, presents a timeline far different than the one of ours, with the first divergence occuring during 1794, in which the rebel forces of Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth secure their independence from Russian Empire up until 1823. This, in turn, leads to much weaker Russian Empire. The Great War, which saw the fall of age old empires in Europe, was much more gruesome, lasting until 1919 in Italian Front, and 1920 in Western Front. Now, in 1934, the Spartakist Regime is holding Germany, with monarchy still existing in East Prussia, Russia is frozen in a warlord era, while France and United Kingdom is on the brink of a brutal civil war.

This mod has been in development since the first DLC and has had many join and leave the developer team through out the years. The mod is designed around gameplay with no DLC content, so some issues may arise from DLC features (example: autonomy gain messing with puppet conditions). We are aware, and we will fix it when we find time. There is a real need for people that can code, write events or think of cool but intelligent ideas, so if you are interested, do message me.
