Description

Build the industrial and research foundation to survive the world’s greatest conflict In Hearts of Iron IV: Götterdämmerung. In this expansion, players can write new histories of Germany, Austria, Hungary, Belgium, and Congo. Pursue exciting new research and military options, opening new paths for devastating new weapons and dramatic raids on strategic targets.

Features of Hearts of Iron IV: Götterdämmerung include:

  • German Focus Tree:  Revised national focuses and alternate historical paths for one of the most played nations in Hearts of Iron IV. These political paths include new monarchist content, a restored democratic Germany and an alternate communist path. More character driven events add flavour to the war’s central player.

  • Austrian Focus Tree: New alternate histories for Austria free of German control, as well as content for surrounding countries that were once part of the Habsburg Empire. There is also a historical path for AI controlled Austria.

  • Hungarian Focus Tree: Rebuild the nation, using technology to overcome manpower shortages. Reform the Austro-Hungarian Empire and forge a powerful, unified faction.

  • Belgian Focus Tree: Resist or welcome German supremacy. Draw on the natural wealth of the Congo and build potential for an African government-in-exile.

  • Congo Focus Tree: Collaborate with Belgium to grow your economy and harness natural resources. Support the Allies or time your independence to follow a Communist, Democratic, or Monarchist path.

  • Special Projects: Build scientific facilities to pursue advanced research in special projects, assigning scientists to further your war effort. Special projects include nuclear physics, advanced aircraft, rocketry, advanced tanks and artillery, naval engineering and electronics.

  • Raids: Attack important enemy targets with carefully planned strikes. Enemy ports, industrial structures, research facilities and special resource collection areas are potential targets for bombing strikes, commando raids or paratroop attacks.

And more: Added Landmarks and Dams that are visible on the map. New changes to the use and effectiveness of atomic warfare.

Good dlc in theory but special projects are way too late in the game and this ♥♥♥♥ is too expensive like all dlc for this game. All the dlc up to newest should be in a bundle for 60€ or less. 100€ should get you the

This is currently one of the few positively rated DLCs on the store, and trust me when I say it deserves that. This is negative because Paradox is greedy but otherwise really good DLC

I kinda wish there had been more imagination put into it. The DDR was a Soviet created puppet state and a native German created communist republic would have been quite different. Also I was hoping for maybe something

Thank you Paradox for letting best girl Mussolini build flying aircraft carriers so he can impose his state-mandated garlic-maxxing on the foul beings known as the Greeks.

Overpriced, even on sale. The new soundtracks are the best part, they're awesome. Some of the projects are cool, but I haven't had any games go on long enough to 1) research the late game projects, and 2) actually need
