Version 1.2 is now uploaded. This should fix the Northern China issue where that possession shows up on the map.
The big change for this version is that it adds the ABC Islands (Curaco, Bonaire, and Aruba) into the Caribbean, which compels you to actually maintain warships in the Caribbean. The slightly good news for you is that the Possession has oil, so you've got some redundancy if you lose the DEI.

Excellent! You know I was very surprised to see an offer from the Army to Blitzkrieg English Hong Kong while I was at war with the Japanese. Was Germany used as the template, or did you add this in intentionally?

Was Germany used as the template, or did you add this in intentionally? That should not have happened, and I have not seen it happen yet. Were you still a liberal democracy at the time? Bug #1 for 1.3!

Yes, Liberal Democracy. I have a save if it is of use to you, but it is from several years on at least.

I think the netherlands .n20 file is misnamed in the 1.2zip Edit: cv10

cv10 Does that file need to be corrected? I was thinking of grabbing this again tonight- I have to change versions so often while testing (and I've found a clean start is the best start) that I haven't played NED for many months.

It shouldn't if you're doing a 1900 start. I don't think that this mod supports a 1920 game. I think the 1920 war missions files were included because I thought they had to be included for error messages not to pop up out of hand. I don't play the 1920 start, so I don't think I created files for it.

Just wanted you to know cv10 , I concluded my 1900-1955 campaign of the Netherlands using the E4Z SpeedHPTable2 mod and a few other very minor tweaks. I think I made 17-20 inch guns a little less heavy... Anyway, probably my most favorite campaign to date. Started on patch 1.10 and ended with 1.11. I ran into a couple of mission irregularities concerning spawn on top of enemy bugs a few times related to patch issues but other than that, the campaign was great. I've posted a few screens to show how things ended up for the Dutch after 55 years. Thanks for this mod... it was kinda like playing the French in a way, but with more of a blue water navy slant due to no Mediterranean holdings. So it was a mix of the USA as well. Just a lot of fun.

Regarding the above charts, the UK and France recently had their Navies sunk by yours truly and France had recovered somewhat. The USA and Germany show what naval buildup is all about having no wars that saw any appreciable naval attrition for the last 10-12 years. What's curious though is my loss of 300 submarines compared to other nations limited losses. I attribute this to the one sided nature of AI nations not having to war against themselves. I think this is one of those things where tortugapower 's AI Wars mod would really come into play for RTW2. I can't explain what happened to Japan's BB fleet. I only managed to sink two. I think they scrapped their BB fleet which was a mistake imo., as some of their late designs were very menacing using heavier caliber guns and were some of the few vessels able to go toe to toe with my BB's. I'll have to let Fredrik W know that the AI should probably extend the scrapping of certain BB's built after 1940 to 15 years. These were excellent designs and should not have been scrapped. Probably the larger displacement designs should not ever get scrapped? I dunno. I just don't see CA/CV fleets as viable like the BB/CV fleets are. So I can't explain what the Japanese did there. Overall, GREAT campaign! Thanks so much for making it!

While I thank you for the kind words about the mod, I think you might be using the other Netherlands mod that's on the forum made by Jeeweej. His mod uses the Dutch naval ensign as the map flag and includes the ABC islands in the Caribbean, both of which I see in your screenshots.

His mod uses the Dutch naval ensign as the map flag and includes the ABC islands in the Caribbean, both of which I see in your screenshots. Lol, you made me double check! No, it's your mod. I changed your flag cuz I didnt like how it looked so similar to the French flag. As far as the map, this is the one I'm using on all future campaigns, or a derivative of it. Isnt this one the one from your campaign? I just DLed Jeeweej's Netherlands mod for the 1st time and looked at his ship names. [BB] Jeeweej's shipnames Groningen Utrecht Drenthe Limburg Groot Hollandia Eendracht Prinses Royaal Johan de Witt Johan Willem Friso Koningin Emma der Nederlanden Johan Maurits van Nassau I never saw BB's with these names for my BB's. So I know it's your mod. Edit: I'm really wondering about where I got the map now. Do you not have the ABC Islands in the Caribbean in your mod? Edit2: That map is the one in your mod. I just checked the DL. Also, I remember why I DLed your mod instead of his, he said his mod was inspired by your work and probably had bugs. He says this in his mod post. I didnt see any updates on his mod, but I saw this thread on yours and it seemed you had done some bug squashing, so I DLed yours. Today is the 1st time I DLed his. So there ya go. I dont know what to tell you about the map other than maybe you incorporated his map into your mod?

I think I added in the ABC islands in a later version. It’s been too long since I tinkered with it. I’m glad to see people using it, and I should probably give it an update

For what its worth, this has been my favorite mod since my Irreplaceable assistance with testing it. Kidding aside, *this* adds to the game what it needs from both a NED and Japanese perspective. Playing this mod as Japan is a million times better than having Italy in the game. I am incredibly grateful for cv10 's work!
