RULES

Please note that we require a minimum account age and karma in order to comment. Comments from accounts which do not meet minimum requirements will be automatically removed.

  1. Posts need to be directly related to Kaiserreich

Submissions need to be directly related to the Kaiserreich mod or its setting.

Just the title of the post being relevant does not count.

  • Stay on topic

  • Keep discussions on topic. This means no headcanon posts outside the scope of Kaiserreich and its playable content, or drawing parallels to current events.

    This also means no posts that focus on other mods.

  • No low effort content

  • Low effort submissions are subject to removal.

    Here are some of the ways in which this can apply:

    • OTL historical photos as 'historical person before KR event happens'.
    • Low effort reposts of/edits to existing content.
    • Low effort polls (“which faction best faction?”).
    • Side-by-side comparisons with other mods.
    • AI art without meaningful input.
  • Follow Reddit’s content policy

  • We enforce Reddit’s content policy, which prohibits conduct including, but not limited to:

  • Explain your images

  • Explain or highlight what you want people to look at when you post an image. Explanations should be posted as a reddit comment.

  • Self-promotion

  • Promoting your own content is welcome, as long as it is related to Kaiserreich. This can include submods, art, videos, and other personal content. Use the appropriate flair when posting (“submod”, “art”, “other”).

    If you seek to profit financially from promoted content, ask for permission via mod mail.

    Promotion of your mod is welcome, provided it either:

    • Requires Kaiserreich to play (a submod, not a standalone mod).
    • Uses Kaiserreich lore, without significant modification, up to KR’s start date.
    • Has received prior permission via mod mail.
  • No Piracy, affiliate or key reseller links

  • No links to pirated materials, no affiliate or key reseller links. Other profit generating links must get explicit permission beforehand.

  • No present-day politics

  • Do not discuss present-day political events or figures. This includes modern-day “headcanons” involving present-day political figures.

    Civil discussion of in-universe politics is allowed.

  • No political extremism

  • Do not glorify or use any symbols associated with undemocratic and unlawful organisations and regimes, be that the Nazi swastika, the IS flag, the Russian Z, or otherwise.

    Open sympathisers and defenders of totalitarian or militaristic regimes are not welcome.

  • No openly pornographic content

  • Do not post content that is openly pornographic or hardcore in nature. Suggestive content must be tagged as NSFW.

  • No Gatekeeping

  • Do not belittle other sections of the community. This includes, but is not limited to, insults about their favourite country paths, flair colours, or how recently they have started playing Kaiserreich.

  • Spirit of the Rules

  • Content that breaks the spirit of these rules may be removed at moderator discretion. This includes posts made in 'bad faith' and posts that are about moderation or ban appeals.

    If you have a grievance or ban appeal, please take it to the modmail or one of the Heads of Moderation, chiron29 or zimbabwesaltco. , who you can find on our discord.

    Can we codify a name for the scenario where a Reactionary Entente wins the 2nd and 3rd weltkriegs?

    I personally think Dreadnought works well as an ominous allusion to British naval supremacy.

    I have a name for scenario's riff on this from the Japanese perspective; Teikoku Datenshi/Datenshi Teikoku, translating roughly to 'Empire of Fallen Angels.'

    The Old Order is a little on the nose but it is referenced in certain Entente-aligned focuses.

    Is the "A People's Union" focus only able to be taken by a Totalist Russia or can a non-Totalist Russia take it?

    The title basically. I thought the choice between that and "A union of Peoples" would be mostly free, but looking at the requirements it seems to not be the case. However, there are no straight ideology restrictions to the focus requirements, so I was wondering which, if any, non-Totalist Russia can take it.

    What's the PSR party would be like in the future afterwards under Ilya Fondaminsky/Christian Democrat wing of SRs path?

    Looking at it after getting Monarch-SRs path, I was curious if this will lead to a split in the PSR postwar as it will be most likely becoming like PSL in Poland (agrarian socialist to christian democrat) as under Fondaminsky; and if so, how in the long term politically and culturally?

    Since this path is weirdly underrated I wanna know peoples' thoughts on this is appreciated, as it doesn't quite give me the full picture.

    So I was playing as Sabinkovist Russia and I noticed that this national spirit is taking away natpop support. I wasn't playing attention, so I don't know where I got this and I don't wanna loose natpop support. Will it stop if I do something/wait a bit?

    Τips for the Russian Army?

    I just did my first playthrough as Russia and while the content was enjoyable, I had some trouble building up my army, most notably my infantry divisions (9/3) were melting. I didn't use tanks nor motorized but I had air superiority, so I guess don't know how to make templates, I would appreciate feedback, thank you.

    Marx has smiled upon us comrades! Saratov has been liberated, and the forces of capitalist reaction have been cut off from their supply. This day will go down in history as the day we won the Great Patriotic War!

    Is there a timeline where Kaiser-maker event seems even plausible?

    I really like the idea of monarchist Poland regaining the Posen and Upper Silesia, yet the plausibility of this case seems questionable at best. Do you think, there is a certain setting where such outcome would be likely?

    Can integrate?

    I created a Korea map submod. But I'm busy now, so I want integrate my submod to KR original.

    There is a mod in the workshop but It's in Korean only. If team agree integrate my submod in KR original, I will rework my submod by English.

    I would really appreciate it if the development team would agree to this.

    Can't elect anyone else as democratic Russia?

    Hi. So I was playing as democratic Russia, went for the Kadets as my choice of first election winner and then went for the coalition of idealists, also completing every single focus that I could, removed Maklakov and placed Dolgorukov as president. I was thinking to elect SocDems in 1941, but I was not able to - instead I had a choice between two Kadets that would replace Dolgorukov as president.

    Is that normal? Should I be entirely unable to elect anyone else at all? Or am I doing something wrong?

    Help with the Russo-Ottoman Convention, please!

    I'm playing as the Ottoman Empire, and I ratified the Russo-Ottoman Convention whilst at war with Iran, as I wanted a white peace, however this didn't happen, and the war continued instead.

    I've never done the Russo-Ottoman Convention myself before, but I have seen it as a pop-up before, followed by the white peace, so I'm confused as to why it didn't happen for me. Do I need to do something specific?

    Could a Post-2WK GEACPS Rival a Victorious Entente and Reichspakt?

    Let's say the Halifax Conference succeeds, the 3I loses to both the Entente and the Reichspakt, Russia is split at the urals by a German puppet and a GEACPS aligned Transamur, the Federalists wins the 2ACW and joins the entente, and Japan conquers the DEI and GEA. Would the GEACPS be able to rival both the Entente and the Reichspakt and if not, what events should change or happen for them to be an equal Faction?

    Advice for LibDem Russia?

    I feel like I’m hamstrung by PP growth (heh) and what needs to be done prior to WK2. My latest run with a Kadet/AuthDem government still had my economy dominated by Germany by 1940. That’s with 2 ministers giving 20% PP in my cabinet. I know it’s not supposed to be easy to adapt to a sudden change of government but am I doing something wrong that I can improve?

    Haven't played KR in a while. What changed with MacArthur's USA? It used to be really hard but I just smoked everyone by 1939. I'm certain it's not b/c I've gotten better

    Advice for Savinkov Russia game?

    Which military paths to go down etc. Botched my last Savinkoc game despite many hours sunk into hoi4. I was pretty distracted so missed a lot of essential stuff before it was too late.

    Any advice for beating the Reichspakt?

    What movies/tv shows would like to see in the KR universe ?

    This could be anything, real, fictional, a parody, something you though of one day based on your own play through, anything really. Just tell me what kind of shows and movies you'd like to see on you inter dimensional Netflix subscription
