the Apocalypse 1836 mod is- to put it nicely- rather old, having been first released to the Victoria 2 community (which itself is also very old!) somewhere around the time i was still in the sixth grade. though its talented creator, ZomgK3tchup, remains active and provides support wherever possible in the original Apocalypse 1836 thread, few adaptations of the mod to present overhaul mods exist. given that it has been some time, though, no one seems to have wanted to bother with merging Apocalypse 1836 with any recent campaign overhaul mods- until now!
i present to you, citizens of the Victoria 2 forum, a WORKABLE(!) merging of Apocalypse 1836 with HFM! i have very little experience in modding paradox games other than editing files to suit my gameplay/roleplay desires, but i noticed that Apocalypse 1836 is a fairly lightweight mod, and i made relatively quick work of merging the files into a new Apocalypse HFM mod!
quite frankly, i did a terrible job. if an experienced modder were to look at how i arranged things like the conditional provinces needed for rebels (zombies) to break a nation, i think it would bring a tear to their eye. and when i discovered that the HFM events for the Boxer Rebellion used the same event codes as the events which kick off the zombie apocalypse, i decided to simply remove the Boxer Rebellion event series and comment out all of its localization text. because, really, is China going to survive that long? i doubt it.
