The New Order: Second West Russian War (**2WRW**), formerly known as Brave New World (BNW), is a submod for The New Order, implementing the Second West Russian War, and aiming at giving each Russian unifier a post-unification focus tree. The development team split and as a result the Second West Russian War mod became its own thing again. Brave New World has since ceased all development.

## Development History

#### **Early Days**

Inititally starting out as a simple state change mod that aimed renaming the states of Eastern Europe. But quickly after releasing, the mod gained traction amongst the TNO team, forcing the head developer, Solstron to take the mod seriously and begin expanding upon the mod.

##### **Foundations 1.1.0**

The foundations era of the 2WRW was a series of updates that added in much of the standard functions that made the mod playable including decisions to declare war on the Einheitspakt, standard peace deals, basic super events (both generic and unique) and various other editions that would see the 2WRW transform from a basic localisation mod into a proper TNO Submod. It was during this period that developers would join the team such as Solo, Socks, Pina, Tukh Enjoyer and Majchin who would go on to become head developers.

##### **Dreams of Federation 1.2.0**

This is the first major update for the 2WRW which would introduce content for Vasily Shukshin's Russian Federation which included 8-9 years worth of content along side the Federal Assembly mechanic. This was a first major step as the 2WRW become one of the few submods to drop a major content package for its mod, allowing it to stand along side other submods such as the Ma Mod and the Kamchatka Mod. The Toolbox Theory Patch would also see some quality of life changes to 2WRW such as integration icons as well as adjustments to Shukshin's content.

##### **Ulysses of Serica 1.3.0-1.3.5**

This Major Update included the content from The Ma Mod, another submod. As a result of the merging of these two submods 2WRW was renamed to **Brave New World.**

#### **Codetalker 1.4.0**

Codetalker was the next major update set to release for the 2WRW. Starting its development around the same time as Dreams of Federation, Codetalker aims to release various new mechanics such as War Mechanics, Reconstruction Mechanics, Nuke Mechanics and new proxy wars such as the Second Great Northern War. There are also plans for giving nations outside of Russia such as Germany post war content such as the return of Willy Brandt to Germany. Codetalker was released on December 23, 2022.

##### **Solaris 1.4.4**

Solaris is a minor update with the purpose of bugfixing and patching BNW. Originally all new content added in Solaris were meant for "Global Conflict", but the team has decided to update and patch the submod as soon as possible.

#### **Global Conflict 1.4.X**

Global Conflict is a smaller update aimed at enriching the world of TNO pass its original expiry date of 1972. Events, interactions surround Europe, Asia and the aftermath of the Second West Russian War and its consequences, especially in Germany and the former Einheitspakt.

#### **Battle on the Ice 1.5.0 （In Development)**

Battle on the Ice is an upcoming major update planned for BNW, covering the Black League and their clash with the German Reich that will see the world crumble. But even then, the fight is not over! Explore the League after the Great Trial and lead them towards the ultimate victory over Nazi Germany, once and for all！

##### **The Breach**

On the 8th of August 2022, a raid took place upon the discord server of the mod. The new owner proceeded to spam all the channels, promoting his own mod and proclaiming Brave New World dead. The server was then deleted, along with much of previous work. The mod team moved on to the server previously hosting TMM development, and continued there.

## Focus

The submod adds post-unification decisions in which Russia can invade the ex-soviet republics in Central Asia, negotiate with Japan for the return of the parts of Manchuria historically controlled by Russia, invade eastern Finland, and a decision to declare war on Germany and their controlled Reichkomissariats. Along with these decisions, there are events for German and Russian victories in the Second West Russian War, the invasion of Central Asia, intervention in the Iranian Civil War, the reconquest of Murmansk and Karelia from Finland, and the negotiation with Japan for Vladivostok.

### Novosibirsk

Main article: Novosibirsk
Currently, the only Russian unifier with a post-unification focus tree is ConDem Novosibirsk, known as the Russian Federation and led by President Vasily Shukshin. In this path, the player chooses which former Reichskommissariats the player wants to reintegrate into Russia, instigate uprisings in Poland, Western China, and Armenia, and to choose if the player wants to form their own faction, or to join the OFN.

In Codetalker, the Russians will have more options for their national leadership, ranging from Shukshin’s followers to pacifists, who will have widely different focuses, each with unique mechanics.

### Qinghai Province

Main article: Qinghai Province
Qinghai content joined Brave New World after merging with TMM, being shorter and in an entirely different time frame (the 1960s). Unlike Russian tags, Qinghai’s content receives small but continuous updates.

Qinghai is the remnant of the Nationalist Chinese government after Japan’s pyrrhic victory in the Second Sino-Japanese War. Their main objective is to of course liberate China, but they cannot hope to do it themselves. While Qinghai seeks friends abroad, it must also face domestic opposition, as the Chinese brought their disunity to the remote province also.

--This has since been removed since TMM has split with 2WRW
