just finished my NSM run, and it was very bland, probably the most unfinished path in the mod. you get like 2 or 3 flavor events (and 2 of those are right after you reunify michigan and 1 is during the war from a focus). they dont even get a news event announcing they reunified america or even a superevent. nearly all of the focuses dont even have localization for the descriptions, nevermind the fact that you dont get the event giving you back the navy (which the AWD gets) if you conquer alaska. the national conference which will always result in war as the AWD results in you outright annexing both the AWD and PF as the NSM, and the event for this even has placeholder text saying something like 'we've reunified america, yeah!'. they even share a generic reconstruction tree with trump, same focuses and everything except a different icon for the first focus. you retain the 'fractured movement' spirit even after firmly siding with one side, and the only thing that happens if you lean extremely hard towards one is some bonuses, nothing like congress and the military making moves against you as trump or the AWD factions taking over depending on the influence.
oh and the event to take on prewar americas debt is broken so you take on the debt either way
