This is a collection for those who want an enhanced but close to vanilla Hearts of Iron experience. These mods all modify the game slightly to make the gameplay more fair and interesting. This mod list will be updated regularly, so check it often!

Disclaimer: There will probably be one or two mods you wont like. Instead of demanding that I remove them from the list, just don't subscribe to them thx.

The Mod List:

No Experience for Division Design - This mods makes division design (almost) free. I like this as I think its ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ that you can't just design the division as you want. The points are much better spent on tanks.

Allied Construction Projects - This should just be in the game. This allows you to build stuff in other nations territories. Really nice for singleplayer where the AI doesn't know where to put strategic defenses, or boosting small nations by building factories in their states.

Better Nukes Less OP + Slower nukes - Hate how nukes basically doesn't matter in this game? How you can drop 50 nukes on a country and they're like "its just a flesh wound!"? Well this mod fixes that and actually makes nukes deadly. Firstly, dropping a nuke kills tons of pop in that state, it also reduces any unit there's heath by 70-90% and gives the victims nations a huge debuff to war support and stability. To balance it nuke production is now wayyyy slower, making each nuke much more impactful.

Colored Puppets - Colors puppets the same color as their masters. Makes it much easier to see who owns who.

Colored Buttons - Makes the Buttons colored. It looks nice.

Coring States - I don't think its realistic that you can recruit the same amount of troops from a province when you just occupied it and a year later, this mod fixes that. It allows you to core states over time, which allows you to recruit fully from their manpower pool. This is a bit crazy if you pick the fastest coring option, so I recommend that you take the slowest.

Minor Nations Revenge - Essential. This mod buff the generic focus three a bit. You can now turn unaligned, you get a bit more factories, and democracy path isn't ♥♥♥♥ anymore. Should just be the vanilla generic focus tree.

More Division Icons - As the name says, it adds more division icons.

Puppet Diplomacy - Allows you to give and take states from puppets kind of like in EU4. This game is usually not good at this as the only option you normally get is to give your puppet ALL its cores, with this mod you can pick. It also adds a few other ways to interact with your puppets. I prefer it to Puppet Manager.

Strategic View Adjustments - If you played HoI3 or HoI2 like I did, you probably don't like how the division icons gets merged into one when you zoom out, this mod fixes that. There is the non-ironman version that does this fully and the ironman version that does it somewhat.

Toolpack - Basically a god mode tool to change everything in the game. I included this as I use this tool after a peace conference where the AI ♥♥♥♥♥♥ up the world map, like Japan puppeting Greece or France taking siberia. I know Player Lead Peace Conferences mod exists, but it doesn't allow you to give vassals to other nations, or often not to change ideology of a nation.
