Hello guys!
I have talked in length about making a 'Best HoS mods' official post, for a long, LONG time...
Actually, the last similar post was made on July 31st 2022... (Link to the post for those of you who don't remember)
This time I will not make a top, I will just give you a few links to some mods that deserve some attention, and that you may have missed.
These mods are not ranked by 'the best', they are unsorted and ranked purely by me.
Alright, now that you know what we're gonna talk about today, let's start! Here's the top HoS mods I would recommend you to play...
As the mod name may suggest, it features a world map. It has pretty much every country that you can think about, it adds and modifies a ton of units, highly recommended to show the creator some love as it took over 6 months to complete.
Yet another world map mod. Although watch out for this one as it is truly massive and may not be supported on lower end PCs (I'm not even gonna talk about phones/tablets). A ton of work was put into that mod as well, and still is, as it isn't finished yet, but I'd really commend you to check it out :)
A brand new Europe map, very similar to the vanilla one, but bigger (not to a point that it is unplayable, though). It is not yet finished, so don't worry if you subscribe and you cannot see the map in the game, but it will be finished very soon. I cannot wait for that one to release as it was made from scratch, using a mash up of real life maps (for cities, terrain, height, roads and railroads). I will definitely base my next playthrough on YouTube on this map!
Still one of those mods I use all the time. It basically changes the graphics of the airfields a little to give higher visibility even when units are on it. It looks very natural and fits the game quite well.
A total conversion mod to bring the 1800s into Hex of Steel. Highly recommended if you are a fan of the era. There are pretty much all campaign of Napoleon and the Coalition as well as entire Europe conversion scenarios. I cannot fathom how much work was put into that mod as well.
Ever wanted a historically accurate HUGE eastern front map, where each hex is 10 km? There you have it :) This is a high quality mod that also took a very long time to make, but as it is now ready, I highly recommend you checking this one out!
Total conversion of the game, brings the Korean conflicts of the 16th century into Hex of Steel. To anybody interested in this particular era/geographical area, a must have! Features high quality counters.
Total conversion mod which brings the 1770s to Hex of Steel. High quality mod, beautiful counters. Lovers of the era/period will absolutely love this mod!
Yet another total conversion mod, this time focused on more modern events. Not only does this mod bring brand new modern units into the game, but an entirely custom hand-made map. Hats off to the author for that one :)
This total conversion mod brings the Korean war into Hex of Steel. Nothing much to say, except it is a great mod! Highly recommended as well.
Changes the base game commanders counters to give them a more personalized/unique look.
It will show the portrait of each commander on the counter.
Mod adding a brand new scenario to the game, the Burma road campaign!
Another mod bringing some uncovered events of WW2. The Ethiopian front!
Total conversion mod (high quality) that brings China in the 1850s and 1860s. Just great!
Visual mod, just like the improved airfields one, but this time with trenches!
Alright, that's it for me, this is only my favorite 15 mods (not sorted in any way).
I invite you to take a look at the 200+ other mods available on the
workshop and see what you are most interested in!
Have a great week-end
Val
