Line 9:
** Has two expansions: ''Doomsday'' and ''Armageddon''
** As well as two official updated version/add-ons: ''Arsenal of Democracy'', and ''Iron Cross''
** Another update which includes [[World War
* ''Hearts of Iron III'' (2009)
** Received a download-only expansion titled ''Semper Fi''.
Line 59:
* [[Evil Versus Evil]]: Depending on the course of history, it's entirely possible for the game to end in a final showdown between an alliance of fascist dictatorships and their conquered puppet states and an alliance of equally repressive Stalinist dictatorships and their puppet states. Or a final showdown between Germany, Italy and Japan when they're the only ones standing at the end.
* [[Finns With Fearsome Forests]]: The Winter War is scripted to happen in III, although in the other games it might happen or it might not depending on the circumstances. Alas, the Finns almost always lose the war in a matter of days or weeks.
* [[Game Mod]]: Countless, including ones which take the game to an [[Alternate History]], [[World War
** Some of these mods have/are being released as stand-along games, such as ''Arsenal of Democracy'', and ''Darkest Hour''.
** Among the more notable ones is ''[[Kaiserreich: Legacy of the Weltkrieg]]'' which starts off in an [[Alternate History]] 1936 where the Central Powers won [[World War I]].
Line 67:
* [[Hypercompetent Sidekick]]: The Silent Workhorse minister trait is basically this.
* [[Indians With Iglas]]: Theoretically available, given it is possible for the vanilla game to extend into the 50's and 60's and India is an available nation. India can also be released as a puppet nation by Britain in Hearts of Iron III. You wil have boatloads of manpower and a decent industrial base, but your main constraint is Britain's AI controlling your resources. If however, the British surrender to the Germans, you will get full independence.
* [[In Spite of a Nail]]: Most often seen when importing in a scenario from [[Victoria: An Empire Under The Sun]]. Whilst the borders and existing countries will change, the leaders most often won't. Meaning that you can have [[Adolf Hitler]] in charge of a democratic Germany, with or without the [[World War
** The fourth game in the series has a selectable option that intentionally does this, prompting the AI to work more or less in line with real-life history.
* [[Israelis With Infrared Missiles]]: See [[Indians With Iglas]].
Line 117:
* [[We Are Not the Wehrmacht]]: See [[Indians With Iglas]]
* [[Winston Churchill]]
* [[World War
* [[World War Two]]: Pretty much the point of the game, though it is possible to avert in very rare circumstances.
** In Hearts of Iron 3, the UK is scripted to declare war by 1940 even if Germany hasn't done anything threatening yet.
*** In Hearts of Iron 2, if Germany declines to declare war on Poland or Poland gives in to Germany demands, either a war will start in the Balkans (Hungary attacking Romania or vice-versa usually) which will bring all of the super-powers to declare war on each other (just like [[World War
* [[World War Three]]: Happens 8 times out of 10, given the fact that the victors (for instance, the Allies and the Comintern) tend to fall out over the spoils in a pretty dramatic fashion.
