English is not my first language. So basically how it works is you buy the base game and then you can download mods on workshop. Then you download the cracked version (preferably with the latest patch.) Then you launch the game through steam and select the modlist you wanna play, then you launch the cracked version and it will have that same modlist. I tried it with CK3, HOI4 and Stellaris but i bet it's the same with all of their games. Only thing that sucks is you can't easily download the latest patch for cracked version, but you can stop steam updates while you finish one playthrough or something. Hope this helps if you need better explanation dm me
Thanks! I thought it was something like that
