previous thread: >>493325660
last thread lasted for 12 days AND died before the bump limit lol, what are you all doing
here's my run guys!no this isn't a year-old repost out of pity to artificially keep this thread alivewhat do you think of my empire? just got rid of the mali disaster so now i can expand without worrying
me? i was avoiding bumping the thread because of the janny problem
I have owned HoI3 for probably 10 years and I've just never really gotten into it. Mostly because I played a shit ton of Vicky 2 and CK2. I'd really like to play HoI3 and have fun but I've never been able to get over the learning curve. Is there some basic tutorials or images that anyone has to help? Not the super basic stuff like how to organize a military. I mean the more meta stuff like which techs are good/worthless, whats the ideal army/navy/air force comp, is there certain things I should rush for certain countries, certain ways to get the best government policies quickly? Shit like that.
if you think hoi3's learning curve is hard just imagine how hard war in the east 2 would filter you
>>494977684To expand on this, some of the stuff I've heard:It's always cheaper for IC to build the shittiest units and always upgradeCarrier Air Support is the best air force unitGround air defense instillations do not workYou can strategically bomb a province down to 0 supply limit and easily make sure it never recovers

look at it from a different lens, and the proof will be clear
i think it's just hard to have all of these detailed shapes and make them to work modular for the 3d modelers and programmers and the money side of things as wellthis is why they chose tall cube slop with details only existing in the textures but i've seen some really neat looking modern housing in the benelux region mainly when playing geoguessrdo check out townscraper btw

Are there any good grand strategy games with a good combat aspect?
>>495118859>good combat aspectLike what? But probably no, the closest thing is either HoI or Total War
>>495119502Like Shadow Empire or War in the East
>>495119692ok>>495118859War in the East
war in the east 1/2 aren't grand strategy, but 'war games' (see: hearts of iron games)
>>495120846The combat in HoI fucking sucks though and it focuses on a lot of other dump aspects besides the war aspect.
the fact the paradog launcher will show me ads before it loads my playsets so i can pick the mods i want (or dont want) and PLAY THE FUCKING GAME I PAID FOR WHEN THE LAUNCHER WASNT SHIT is infuriatingfire the devs

It was more about the absolute state of the /gsg/ today. Anyway, current state of the Foxreich. After grueling war I conquered Tianlou, but it completely exhausted my manpower. Time for the decade of recovery and consolidation, I can annex Kohai next year. I'm also pretty behind in tech.

raus>he didn't understand
Can someone please help me understand how to play this game?I already got my ass kicked by Ethiopia and now I'm getting my ass kicked by Afar.Do I need moar divisions?Am I not attacking correctly?Am I like under supplied or something?I don't understand what I'm doing wrong hereIs this game just a meme? Do I need to go back to Victoria 2 to be cool?
>>495250228Use your army XP to make your infantry templates better (add support companies and more infantry to push them to 20 width to begin with)Draw a frontline with a battleplan and let the planning bonus meter fill up on the divisions before you attackHave air superiority in the zones where you are attacking by assigning fighters with the air superiority mission to your attacking armiesThe final aspect has to do with supply and can usually be solved by spamming ports, railways and supply bases in the areas where you are fighting If all else fails, pray to The Good LordGood luck gentlesir
shame i have to kill them later
maps
okay guys i know i'm retarded here but how the FUCK do you use autohotkey? ive spent all fucking day figuring out how to download mods for hoi4 without owning the game, and now i realize paradox is too fucking retarded and lazy to add a keybindings setting into their own game.all i fucking wanted to do was use WASD to move the map in HoI4 but because fucking paradox is too overworked selling trainwreck games piecemealed in twelve $50 segments over the course of three years in order to add a KEY BINDINGS SETTING, i need to download a third party program in order to move the god damned camera in this dogshit attrition simulator. Fucking swede pieces of shit.Anyways I made WASD work no problem, but how the fuck do I make a button toggle the fucking script????I do F12::Pause, it says it pauses, nothing fucking happens. F12::Suspend great, but I can't turn it back onThis game dev company is proof hitler was wrong. Fucking inbred jackals can't put in keybinding options. Surprised they don't sell the option for $14.99.Spare me the lecture and just copy and paste the EXACT FUCKING LINES you put into autohotkey so that I can press F12 and the script will deactivate and then F12 again and it will reactivate.
>>495250228On all of your armies there's a little camel up in the top right cornerClick it. It will become a truck.Your troops will now use trucks to resupply instead of horses.Yes people unironically think this is a good game.In all seriousness, dont do any microing. Before you unpause for even ONE HOUR, set up two armies with front lines, one north ethiopia and one south ethiopia.Go to mainland italy. Highlight all ground troops. Right click on the army general face with the front line that is the south of ethiopia.Go to Libya. Highlight all troops. Right click on the army general in charge of northern ethiopiaHighlight every single plane you have on the entire map. Deselect all fighters and naval patrol bombers.Click the little airplane + sign on top of the generals face who controls the army in northern ethiopia.For Northern Ethiopian general: In the bar where you made your front lines, look for "Offensive line". Click on it and then right click and draw a line through the country in the middle so that the green line has addis abbaba in it, and it draws an arrow showing all your troops attacking down.In the South do the same thing but going up.Click the green Go arrows on top of each of your troops generals to have the troops begin your plans.And lastly BEFORE YOU UNPAUSE:::Start building railroads towards the center of the country on both ends. From the coast in Northern Ethiopia down, each province you take make a new railroad there, in the South make one from Mogadishu to the tip of the horn back down and follow it up until both railroads meet in about April 1936. If you micro your own air you can probably get it done before the middle of March.

>>495250228Italy is one of the most difficult majors to play and not recommended if you are just starting out. If you insist on playing them then you need to learn how to stack the tables in your favor. You are missing lot of things that you could be doing, for instance you don't seem to have air support in the fight, go to your air map mode and bring in some bombers and few fighters to give you an edge. Then you ought to click on the fight bubble and check out various modifiers. You could for instance let your troops rest, build up a battle plan and then attack with it, you should also assign your general under a field marshal (also choose a better general than this shitter) from the big plus on the left of his face which gives more stats. You lost to Ethiopia so it's 1937 so you could have better and more suitable units, mountaineers would do good in the highlands of Ethiopia for instance. You also could probably have few more troops, the templates you are using are if I recall pretty small at the start, check your combat width in the combat and see if you are matching or exceeding it and bring in more troops if you aren't. There's a lot of little things you can do to improve.>>495269570Korea, Netherlands and some merchant nations like Lubeck or Venice are good choices. I think Netherlands has the most fun gameplay since you can participate in European wars while staying small and just dicking on the French, the Austrians, the Germans and then the French again.

Ass slam allah-cum sisters I have never, ever played as a Muslim before on CK3.Thought about starting as a Balkan pagan and converting. Probably become some kind of Alevi or make my own esoteric Sufi inspired faith.Problem is, it feels really really wrong to be culturally Serbian and religiously Muslim.What would you suggest? Maybe I create my own custom / divegent culture, too? Or should I marry some hot sexy foreign Muslima princess and make my children her ethnicity?

Yeah I wasn't buying military suppliesAlso even chuncky CSA sucks ass and I'm getting my shit pushed in by yankees. They outnumber me like at least 2 to 1 and I was lucky to peace out only losing Kentucky but they're absolutely going to come back for more after the truce expires.

>>494972121On a whim I tried Vicky 3. Might as well rename the game to "Nothing Ever Happens".
>>495522568One thing that would help you is if you use your national focuses and encourage soldiers in your most populous states so you can actually get an army going. Also just because you are large doesn't mean you are necessarily strong, USA probably has more people packed in fewer states and more industrial power as well.

If you guys haven't heard the news already I thought you might find this interesting.Albania is planning to create an independent sovereign theocratic state within their capital city of Tirana.An Islamic Vatican, if you will.It will be ruled by the Bektashi Sufi denomination, which is a pretty whacky ancient sect that believes Allah allows you to do whatever you want and doesn't really give a shit. They drink alcohol, allow men and women in the same part of the mosque to pray together, believe in books besides the Qur'an, have weird esoteric Sufi practices, and are basically the most Albanian form of Islam you can imagine.It's basically everything about trad Islam that Wahhabis/Salafis hate and seethe about, which more or less why Albania is trying to push it to be a sovereign state and global representative of Islam.If you're wondering if they exist in game, the Alevis are playable in CK3 which are almost identical only historically Turkish instead of Albanian.

I just got recommended a youtube video with 100 views of a Chinese living in Wales and learning Welsh Now if that happened in game I'd rage quit as it being impossibly unrealistic and immersion breaking And yet I just had proof it's happening in real life. Wild.

the thing I don't get with EU5 is they're splitting Christianity into lots of denominations, they're including Waldensians and Miaphysites and whatever the frick elsebut for all other religions they're consolidating them and not including the lesser denominationsthey should make it consistent. split all religions into their little sub-denominations, or consolidate all religions into their overarching label.don't divide Christianity while doing the opposite to other religions

i also clicked and realized that the uploader means it as victory in spanish and if you go to his channel you will see a prequel video titled "Victoria"
was it another fortnite video?
yes and also fortnite has "Victory Royale" as ending tag line just like pubg's winner winner chicken dinner

Alright I have been putting this off for the entire time you've been doing this, over a month now, atleast. I am really fucking annoyed by this meme. Victoria 2 is a great game, by far the greatest grand strategy of all time, in no other game can you manage an economy, your pops, your diplomacy, your taxes, your army and your sphere of influence at the same time. Victoria 2 takes every element of every game and makes it great. Your pathetic fucking mana/dynasty/OoB/insert single issue game simply can't compete. I've tried playing them, believe me. They are pathetic. You play them and you only have to manage one, maybe, two things. Hah, what is this mess? It's a botched job. A complete write off. And sure, if you like that sort of purile simplistic shit then more power too you, it's not my job to kick down your sandcastle. But why must I spend my time arguing this with you? Just because Victoria 2 is too complex for you doesn't mean it is for everyone. And when challenged you crawl back into your same abhorrent memery, because that's all this is, you don't have the slightest clue what you're saying or who you're messing with, because if you did you'd stop. Go back to playing your blob simulator, little man, because this general belongs to us. The true strategy gamers. Not your lame, disgusting casual shit. And you know the worst part? We can't even meme back. Hell, I'm sure there's some really overpowered trade good in EU4, but we can't say "hurr durr naval supplies" or whatever because the simple fact is nobody has played your favoured game since EU3, back before they dumbed it down for people like you. So well done, my friend, you made an intellectual victoria 2 fan MAD. You've achieved your greatest feat since you formed grossulmiums, mark this on your wall as a victory for your abysmal existence because I can tell you now, kiddo, this is your peak.

Went back to war against Mexico for Sonora. My economy is sort of teetering (after I started upgrading my Atlantic Shipyards) so I haven't maxxed out my armies and I lost my entire Age of Sail navy when I tried to invade Ethiopia (Daddy Britain said no and we drowned on the return journey or whatever)In Europe Daddy Britain and Germany successfully defeated France and Austria in "The Great War" which doesn't seem to have changed very much.I think my next move will be another Mexican state since I still have no Navy and will take some time to build a battle ship level navy to actually attack Europe or Asia with.I guess this game is going to end soonish too. Is the HOI4 converter just a meme? This was my first "real" V2 campaign and it's a lot of fun for sure
Converters are a meme in general unless you’re heavily modding the game.
929bait used to be believeable
This is what I did in my very first successful CK2 game, and then I conquered Sweden to make my Suomi more groß.
nice imaginary campaign
>>495772527Converters are larp especially for hoi4, unless you are invested in the role play aspect there's no real reason to convert into a hoi4 game. The game can't really handle it unlike say vicky which is still interesting game even with a converted eu save. If you want alt history hoi4 it's better to stick with mods instead.
Are 20 and 40 width divisions no longer good in hoi iv?
>>495777702These days basically all widths are useful except for mountaineers. The terrain is varied enough and the maluses small enough. Just do what you feel is the best. You just want to strike a balance between the amount of divisions you need on the field and the amount of army slots your good generals have.

Yeah adventurer gameplay in ck3 is kinda ass. Suffers from the horrible balancing the rest of the game has.The game desperately needs to bring back societies so there's at least something to do during peace that isn't just a resource sink.

>new dlc is out>now have to wait for 2 weeks for my mods to update so i can for grobromanums once again.
Took me a bit to get the start going. I had to fight several defensive wars, including one where fucking Bjorn Ironside called in Dyre the Stranger's 4500 men. Had to lead them on a wild goose chase until they were out of supplies. Also went into Chivalry as I always do when starting small because the Knight upgrades are huge. Same dumb tricks from when the game came out. Matri-marry all my female courtiers to men sorting by prowess. If a knight dies, I remarry them. If a wife dies, the knight gets a nice young healthy wife that can in turn import a new knight husband if she is widowed.
>matri-marriage enabledngmiyer ruler looks a maninteresting you do the court eugenicsnever bothered with it in 3, found that it wasn't as effective, or something about the interface or something just never found myself keeping tabs with the court as muchhow are the royal court fixes? good farts?
I wouldn't exactly call it eugenics. I do want the courtiers to be good, it's nice to have females with good traits on hand in the court. But the main focus is just to get tons of knights which can actually be kind of annoying when starting out if you don't do this trick. No idea I don't have a court.
>play jianzhou >ming collapses within first 5 years
Ming more like Bing! And it's gone!

I'm still going to do my Greco-Norman campaign but the Darktide update surprise dropped a day early so I hopped over to that. Porfinn will soon conquer Normandy though.
You're about 2 years too late buddy, get in line.
Is ck3 fixed? Is it good now?
no, and it also never will be
CK3 IS GOATED. However, some questions about admin government stuff. Does having military education do anything? I am finding that my military skill and prowess is way less useful because I can't dunk on my fellow vassals via war. So I have no idea how to gain more influence to push my kids into governor positions. I am currently a 1 county governor in the abbassid empire.
>Fellow governors revolt against the Sultan but I don't join>Next in line to get one of the other revolting governors lands>Governor DIES in jail and I inherit his lands>I am now at war and the Sultan now hates meWhat in the fucking world? Whats crazy too is that when I inherited the land, it instantly put me at war with the Sultan? How the fuck does being a governor work?
They can use the assets, it's just that anyone who wants to play the mod would need to own that dlc. Which is probably self-defeating.
Like literally the only use I could remotely think of (and what I originally assumed from the name content creator pack) is for modders to fill out their focus trees with more official art, but it's not official art and I'd imagine that wouldn't be allowed anyway.
Swing and a miss. I would have been interested in a portrait pack. Couldn't care less about focus icons.
Yeah, scrapping culture groups for a culture system that sees it as more of continuum of cultures with shared and diverging traits seems like a good idea. Like, it definitely makes sense to see Danish culture as an intermediary between North Germans and Swedes, especially after centuries of German rule of a Danish state ruling Germans and Danes. Or Turks with Roman aspirations ruling Greeks with Roman heritage.
Every single time Paradox set up a shop to develop something that isn't a totemic grand strategy title it goes horribly wrong.
I always thought it might be interesting to have a game where medieval battles play out that way. Having the luxury of a top-down view to get an idea about the layout of the battlefield is pretty modern. I wanna talk to local guides who tell me about the layout of the fields and forests and villages. Of course it would probably be boring and annoying as hell :v:I know there's Radio Commander for the Vietnam War but that still uses a map
This doesn't say it directly but I bet there's still a "we just want a border province" CB so functionally it will be just like EU4 but with a little bit more planning and inertia involved. If it's not like that then I'll be very surprised and wonder how the diplomatic system works in general.
This rat fuck gave my family member something that doesn't exist!? In administrative government for the Arabian Empire. It said it gave him the Sunni Caliphate title for governorship but he has no lands. YOU FUCKER!!! Petitioned him and he gave me basically nothing.
use the gold to pay for an admin advisor to bring down the inflation, or use the money for troops to beat up nations around you to pay for an admin advisor to bring down inflationthe secret to EU4 economics is that if you aren't in perma-bankruptcy you're basically fine
"take the customs where it comes" perk is a little bit overpowered imo
Oh, and the other important thing for Great Horde (and anyone in that area) is to take the Kazan gold province ASAP and dev it for renaissance to like quadruple your income

Always take money because money pays the mercs that let you beat up more people for more money and mana and land.
i've had some fun playing chill 2p coop with a friend. I let her choose the region, her nation, and our objective, and then I pick a nation that I think would be fun/weird/complementary.
A major fix would be that it moves the casus belli to whatever it was when you last had the declare war window open.I often open the window many times while checking the allies etc. and then accidentally click go forgetting to have changed it.It's the absolute worst when you have 10 years left on a restoration of union claim and you accidentally declare for something else
if it's just for players can't you just all agree not to fabricate? you don't trust your friends/self not to cheat?
oh god that one, i ended up setting up dozens of little statelets in india and trucebreaking as required
It's actually quite possible to just go directly into Manchuria, noCB one of the northernmost tribes on 1444-12-11, vassalize and expand from there. If you have a bit of luck with what AI tags ally or fight each other you can become dominant in the region in a couple of decades and then roll over Ming when they have a moment of weakness. If bad luck... well, it's early game, not much lost by restarting.Qing is a beast, easy 75% CCR even as Confucian and a good amount of admin efficiency on top of that.
imo you should wait until October 2027, after paradox releases the dlcs that fix colonization and diplomacy

They always lagged it a little, but since the new update Crusades slow the game down to a crawl.
in CK3, what the fuck am I supposed to do with daughters? I am a muslim playing in the middle east. I just have no idea w hat to do with them. They seemingly sit around and cause issues. Had one daughter try and kill my wife. Had another freak out and fornicate with some 70 year old Imam or whatever. I know they can be used for alliances but I don't want all these shitty alliances right?

the big initial collapse of Abbasid power comes during the Anarchy at Samarra, which the game starts near the end of (861-870)the Turkic guard breaks into factions regarding succession and in their dispute they kill four caliphs in ten years' timethe end of that coincidences roughly with the Zanj rebellion, a lengthy slave revolt that drew all of the caliphate's resources and allowed everyone even remotely close to the fringes to de facto break awayand they never really recovered from that. there wasn't a proper year of implosion, but a gradual process over the first few decades of the gamewhatever your preferred answer is, it's definitely within the first 80 years of the game - by that point they had lost all of Egypt to the Fatimids and all of Persia (and their sovereignty) to the Buyids
>>495998515Goated historian anon. based. It would appear that Administrative government makes the realm WAY too stable. The whole region seems insanely safe? Not even sure where the turk chads are at right now.
>118 posts deletedlol nah, this shithole isn't worth savinganyways back to the other thread where they don't ban me for saying the n-word
>>496000532Wait, whats the other thread?
not going to say, you see, for we don't need any reportfags from here going to there

>>495982293They got rid of a bunch of the mana in Imperator and it’s a way better game now.
narural borders is obsolete afte the invention of Haber–Bosch process
I want an actual challenge in eu4. Has anyone tried xorme ai with responsible warfare/blobbing? Thinking of using those 3 mods with a mod that slows colonization
just do a no ally campaign dude
wanna establish mexico as the pope but ottoblob looking kinda vulnerable and memeluks stronger in the east... no ss because it's page 10 my dude
what how did i get all of these info
you blobbed
no such thing as blobbing in eu4
those generate baal worshippers have gone too far
meh i didn't even notice the typo
>east Bantu cuisine heh
First Campaign with Xorne AI(no cheats) feels good. they all stronger than me. but this mod is more fun atm than trying xorne in normal eu. so cant say
i think i'm done see you in another life brothers
holy based, Slaves gives you domestic tradepower instead of fking tarrifs
745based, thank you for response. going to try out the setup i mentioned in normal eu and see how it feels
>>496056076w-what are herbs from east bantu cuisine?
>>495966769you might be. i love to play the early game slow
gee
@0769It’s simple, the game is about the wacky antics of your sims now, not the crusades. It all started with playable pagans, especially Reddit’s beloved Vikings. The game should be called Quirky Chunguses, not Crusader King.
i'd actually play Quirky Chunguses
850let me know how it goes, I'm using a few mods like responsible warfare/blobbing but not xornecurrently playing a comfy tall qing game
>>496066096see ya
who would have thought kicking out all productive modders and LARPing as 1850s reactionary politicians would get dull after a while? whoa!
Bantuland.. home
>>496114352bros... wait until they recreate the Kurgan migrations...
missed a trick calling it "Bantustan", a humourous connection to the real life Bantustans of Apartheid-era South Africa and a Bantu kingdom in an area with historic Persiatic influences :)
was looking at the cultures in CK3 and ran into this.
>arabsalaam goyim
>>496115719i don't get it?
i just like looking at the developer comments.
>>496114527I assume they'll add nomads soon(tm), but kurgan migrations not even that impressive according to this https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kurgan_hypothesis#/media/File:Kurgan_map.png
>no Scotlandbullshit map
Is it any good?Shill it to me anons
656Nah
903why not
the cool thing about vicky 2 was the unique combination of economic simulation in a strategy game and with a bit of politicsWhat you get in VIC 3 is:- no simulation of goods- no simulation of money- shit diplo system- binary warfare system with no control- no parties, and a gamey law enactment system, even if the idea behind the laws is good- tech tree is good in concept
Do any gsg paradox games actually have any strategy because they honestly feel like a more boring version of King of Dragon Pass where instead of getting a cool fantasy story you just have a bunch of charts and numbers that say the modern HRE or Communist America rules the world now and the only 'challenge' was exploiting a braindead AI.
In CK3 my first wife has 10 children and my secondary wife has 2. What the fuck is the point in being able to have all these children in Muslim areas of the world? Like realistically, what the fuck am I going to do with 10+ children. I am getting confused on which kid is what kid too. I have like 3 kids named Bashar or whatever because I click the random name.
>>496125427Don't pretend like king of dragon pass doesn't also have dog shit AI. It does have cool events though.
hey guys do you have an eu4 game running now with vc?
>>496128485Oh I'm not excusing the dumb ai, it just feels like paradox gsg games are basically just dumb visual novels with very little actual strategy
