Rewrite history in this DLC

Hearts of Iron IV: Arms Against Tyranny is a premium downloadable content that breathes fresh life into the already captivating world ofHearts of Iron IV. This expansion invites you to script an alternative history for the Nordic countries of Finland, Norway, Denmark, and Sweden.

These democracies are facing looming threats from predatory dictatorships, and it's up to you to lead them to survival or conquest. Hearts of Iron IV: Arms Against Tyranny introduces the ability tospecialize national manufacturers and weapons designers, allowing players to tailor their industry to their ambitions.

Unleash the power of Nordic nations

The Winter War, in particular, is a standout addition found in Hearts of Iron 4: Arms Against Tyranny. Reliving the defining moment of Finnish history against the mighty Soviet adversary is a thrilling challenge. Despite facing military disadvantages, the Finnish homeland defense advantage allows fortailored army preparation. Your choices can lead Finland down a path of territorial expansion, socialist ideals, or collaboration with the Soviet Union.

Sweden, the richest of the Nordic nations, adds a unique layer to this expansion. It thrives on neutrality but can become an arms designer and trader. Balancing strong unions to prevent government instability is a compelling challenge, especially in a world engulfed in chaos. Sweden's struggle to modernize its forces and avoid taking sides in regional conflicts makes for a complex and interesting narrative.

Norway also presents another compelling narrative, navigating the fine line between neutrality and resistance. Meanwhile, Denmark, often characterized by a policy of neutrality, finds itself unprepared for continental war. The International Market feature is another curious addition, enabling arms exporting and fueling civilian factory output. While this expansion is a significant inclusion to the game, it does have some balancing issues and a few game-breaking glitches that need addressing.

Shape alternate histories

In summary, Hearts of Iron IV: Arms Against Tyranny is a compelling expansion that breathes new life into the game. The nuanced storytelling, rich historical detail, and challenging gameplay options for the Nordic democracies make it a must-have for fans of the series. However, there are some issues that need to be addressed for a truly seamless experience for this new narrative.
