game's cancelled for the year
How should I start a moneyball save should I start from the get-go o sim a season and then play?
>>1938389Simming a season gets you the stats, just make sure to jump back in before the season resets.
>>1938390>>1938389Make sure you sim with full detail otherwise the stats won't be accurate.
>>1936812Do I still count as boring if I'm trying to emulate a tactic from real life that happens to be 4321? I normally play more psychotic tactics like pic related.

this thread is dead on arrivalI just wanted to make a collection of anime themed RTS games because many anons claim that there is no such thing>Star Maidens Chronicle>Lost Technology>LotusCraft - SecondSeason>Touhou Boushuen ~ Age of Ethanols>Terra Centauri>(upcoming) The Touhou Empires>(upcoming) Some anon making an RTS with schoolgirlsThere are of course also mods like>cymod (Red Alert 3)>Anime DefenseX (WC3)>Gundam OneYearWarA11 (Rusted Warfare)Comment too long.

>>1937674>hurr, I have to zoom in to see the animu unitsGet a bigger monitor. And in-game units aren't even the only way to show off the waifus. You can plaster them all over the main menu, the loading screens, the briefings, the cutscenes, the victory/defeat screens, the unit portraits, the army painter, the unit guide, the bonus content, etc.If there's a good reason why anime RTSes aren't a thing, it's definitely not because of visual constraints.
>>1937711>Literally conceived of as an anime site>Non-anime content is segregated from boards like /w/, anime is considered the site's default>"4chan is not an anime site"4chan was always an anime site. This thread is simply /vst/ returning to the site's origins - its true home.

>>1937842Animetrannies are honestly quite endearing. Like a weed trying desperately to cling to a plant.
SC2 is LITERALLY deadBW is better than ever, flash is back starcraft ghost soon
>>1936529In lower ranks sure. But if any better player knows what you're up to you're dead. Generally bad players don't scout as much and focus on doing whatever strat they decided before the game started. If they're going mech they're going mech no matter what.

so sc2 is dead finally? i only have to complain about zerg in bw now.

Heavy nailguns work underwater.
How do you defend your bases in the early game? Either because I'm on a higher difficulty or due to Dio's meddling the attacks are a lot more frequentI've lost 3 farming bases already - one to govs, one to ninjas and one to banditsThe strategy of stuffing outposts with peasants and dogs stopped working very quickly
Use the security corridor. Time-honoured method of grouping in the next building along and hiding around corners, popping out to fire, and taking cover again. Gayops from governments are a good reason to keep your gothic raygun and axes around, that armor is no joke.
>>1938576That's why you stuff them with peasants and dogs with live landmines.
>want more radars and hangar space to play air>can't effectively defend more than one base>don't want to risk millions in base investments bothering with low tech air
Lets ignore the civ switching thing they stole from Humankind.What actually is there in Civ7?There seemed to be no workers, cities still spread out but for each building?combat is continuous?Didn't seem like a lot of inputs.
wassup with that wonder construction animation? its straight up a bland downgrade compared to 6!!
thanks chud
>>1938428>paying for the modern/information era is "hopium">paying extra for civs that should be in the base game is "hopium"I'm not funding this trashfire in the hopes it "gets good" later. I've learned my lesson from Paradox.
>>1938442>ahhsomeone explain to me, did a rapper tell zoomers to not say ass or something?
>>1938414NTA, but you shouldn't, different terms for different things. There's a clear difference between Beyond the Sword and a little plugin that changes your scout's dog to a cat.
shooting your paragon before it even enters the battlefield.
>>1938525The PC is definitely special in some way. Not just through lore, but through gameplay mechanics as well.How many officers do you see exceed the double digits? Even the Tesseract and Ziggurat pilots don't go higher than 10, and they're supposed to be supernatural beings.
>>1937807>Is Kaysar fucking retarded what is the point of making the industries VoK adds less powerful and making them use 2 slotsWhoa whoa whoa. Back up. When did this happen? I've never seen an industry take two slots.
>>1938376In all seriousness, they're probably dedicated anti-boarding batteries and internal defences, on top of the barracks and shit to house security.>>1938585>I've never seen an industry take two slotsIndEvo's raider base also takes two IIRC
Kaysaar recommends greatly increasing the amount of industry slots:https://ashesofthedomain.wiki.gg/wiki/Installing_Mods,_Setting_up_VoKI don't know who is building 36 industries on one planet.

If you see a gibberish post, it was made by raiders, ignore it.No, Vic 3 is not good yet. In fact it never will be. Neither will EU5.How fares your empire /gsg/?This week in history:1010 – The Jews of Limoges, France are given the choice of baptism or exile.[48]1012 – One of the first known persecutions of Jews in Germany: Henry II, Holy Roman Emperor expels Jews from Mainz.1021 – A violent earthquake occurs, which some Greeks maintain is caused by a desecration of Jesus by the Jews. For this reason, a number of Roman Jews are burnt at the stake.1078 – Council of Girona decrees Jews to pay taxes for support of the Catholic Church to the same extent as Christians.1092 – The Synod of Szabolcs, Hungary prohibits Jews from working on Sunday or marrying Christians.1096 – The People Crusaders led by Count Emicho, decides to attack the Jewish communities, most notably in the Rhineland, under the slogan: "Why fight Christ's enemies abroad when they are living among us?" 800 are killed in Worms. Another 1,200 Jews commit suicide in Mainz to escape his attempt to forcibly convert them and 600 are massacred in Mainz on 27 May. All in all, 5.000 Jews were murdered.1099 – Jews fight side by side with Muslim soldiers to defend Jerusalem against the Crusaders and face massacres when it falls. The Crusaders set the synagogue on fire while the Jews were trapped inside. It is generally believed that hundreds of Jews died in the synagogue fire, and many more were killed throughout the city.

I'm playing a lanfang game right now it's pretty fun tbf
ill be honest i never played lanfang
it's a lot better than a few of the other campaigns I've done, I've posted some of my Alaska games and that's literally just me alt tabbed for 99% of itbut as lanfang you are in a mad rush to dab on the other unciv subhumans before the Netherlands swallows them up, thereafter you have to keep conquering to Westernize at a decent pace
>>1938616>>1938616>>1938616>>1938616wtf do you even DO as ALASKA
mine precious metals, raise militancy as fast as you can so you can pass all the reforms, goad the USA to war the UK so you can gobble up Canada,kick your feet up and look at your pops
Aztec Defense editionHow goes your conquering?Fantasy mods for historical games welcome.
>>1937802best you can get is this
>>1938091Played plenty of it as well, im eventually going to try Bannerlord but it seemed like a barebones Warband on release so it killed alot of desire to rush out to play it.>>1937927I know and it makes this problem suck even more.>>1938103Looks cool, but doubt it will quite scratch that itch. Still whats the game?
>>1938368Bannerlord is basically still like that
>>1938388What the fuck man its been in development for like 15 years.
>>1938368>Played plenty of it as well, So you're running out of games to play just like me. I look into other older games that always get mentioned but I never played. I have better luck finding good games if I'm looking in the same era. I've found a few that turned out to be great. Whereas I rarely enjoy newer games for some reason
https://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/developer-diary/tinto-flavour-2-17th-of-january-2025-florence.1726233/Tinto Flavour #2 - 17th of January 2025 - FlorenceHello, and welcome for the second week to Tinto Flavour, the new series in which we will show the flavour content of the latest super secret Project Caesar!Today we will be taking a look at Florence! I hope you get visually stunned by what you see, but not a rapid heartbeat, fainting, confusion, or hallucinations, as it happened to Stendhal when he visited the city in 1817. So, let’s start! The Florentine domain stands strong at the cusp of a new age! Our republic has stood the test of time and is located in a prime position to take advantage of our region's prosperity and affluence. Around us, rivaling states and potential allies all make their moves in a bid to influence and expand their territory in Italy. \n\nHowever, few are as well known for their aptitude in arts and cultural influence as our forums of thought in Florence. Under the guidance of a capable administration and an educated people, the coming century will elevate our people and have us shine brightly as pioneering innovators during a time of great enlightening.

>>1938408Paradox in 202X could never make anything this kino
This game is just an EU mod for Vicky 3. It's going to be rat piss, Paradox has learned nothing

>>1938095Lol dumbass
>>1938096you might be right, this isnt the board I meant to click. sorry for shitting it up
>>1938095it is truly miraculous how quickly he managed to destroy all goodwill from every single side of the political spectrumhe destroyed the goodwill of the onions slurping liberals who drive his dumbass electric cards by siding with the MAGA movement for some reason and he destroyed the goodwill of the both retarded milquetoast right and the far right by calling Americans subtarded and openly proclaiming he wants to replace them with "talented" (cheaper, if they learn US labour laws they'll be fired and deported) H1-Bs from India.
>>1938095Oi imagine paying some nerd to play video games for you to look cool. Truvth money can't buy everything
>>1938273he's just a classic midwit who held the mask up a loooong time.
Are they gonna kill him off?I’m hoping they don’t since they could do a lot with the character
>>1932333Works for me. Have you tried unmuting 4chan?
/vg/ ahhh thread
>>1935156Shut your lame ahh cracker head./vmg/ thread is better though I will admit it.
>>1931641FYI, just so nobody gets surprised: the next version of Enhanced Combat Page View will be dropping the zoom function in favour of a new scrolling function, which supports displaying arbitrarily long ability/keyword descriptions as well as an arbitrary number of dice/keywords
>>1938526And even though this also requires altering the layout a bit (since it would've been weirder to have longer die abilities form tall columns while the spaces under the die range values remain unused), most vanilla pages still fit on one page's worth of space, without needing scrolling to view all their dice. Some of them can now make even better use of the space they have.The new version also makes keyword tooltips visible on slotted pages in combat (mostly important for enemies).
Talk about Stellaris here. Which expansions are bloat, and which ones are good? When will Psichads get their time to shine?How much a nigger is the Synthetic Queen?
>>1938112
>>1938112Imagine Berlin on the very end of WW2.Something like that.
>>1938069its so dumb.just add more slots to space station where hangars or police modules give a global reduction to piracy. or trade losswith diminishing return per station so u need to spread it out over 10 station
>>1938195Berlin wasn't that bad off.
>>1937880Extreme perk changes, it's that easyEvery perk gets a bigger bonus and all drawbacks are biggerIn short, behead compfags and those that listen to them. It's that simple.
Time to talk about the most popular and unfair franchise about defending Earth from Aliens.
>>1836849It’s shit. Sure it’s more polished than the first, but the story and feel is awful. The aliens no longer look like aliens. The only ones that look somewhat look alien are sectoids and mutons. The rest just look stupid. Archons look like they belong in a fantasy game. Vipers are literally just anthro snakes.They replaced the ethereals with troll dolls.
>>1936349So why didn't WB implement it in any other of their games? They patented it right?
Are laboratories any good in WotC?They seem to cost a lot for just an extra scientist, but maybe it's actually a huge benefit I'm not seeing?
>>1936751Even if you get the meme bonus and ignore the fact that the game is already over after you research mag guns, you'll still need resources to buy all the shit you research instantly imo.
>sharpshooter>all basic abilities + rapid fire>icarus armor>bluescreen rounds + mindshield >chosen sniper and pistolIs this the most overpowered playable character in any xcom game?
Every RTS game with three playable factions can roughly be stuffed into these categories.Prove me wrong
faction a: advanced with few unitsfaction b: scrappy with lots of unitsfaction c: highly technical
>>1937941I liked how Planetside 2 handled this.>the "primitive & raw volume" faction is like this not because they lack the tech or budget, but because it's better to have everyone filled to the brim with ammo, supply and old-but-proven gear than going fancy and risking to run out>the "advanced & experimental" are just guys buying whatever shit they can get their hand on the black market and jury-rigging stuff beyond its intended use>the "high technology" ones just copy-paste what they can from alien tech without really understanding how or why it work
>Faction A: Quality>Faction B: Quantity>Faction C: Innovation This covers pretty much all human civilisations. You can be a Quantity Civ like the USA, Russia, China, France and Rome. You can be a quality Civ like Germany, Sweden, Japan or Greece. Or you can be an innovation civ like the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Korea and Persia. It is neat, tidy and fun.
>>1933181Starcraft doesn't even fit this
>>1933181while the premise is pretty accurate for a lot of games (even xcom falls into this), and could also be described in other similar ways, as per thread, there are many games that fail this specific description for various reasons (dune 2 for instance due to there not being any real differences).supreme commander franchise (it's all just robots)as per >>1933308(no real faction differences)dune2super dune 2dune 2000https://playclassic.games/games/real-time-strategy-dos-games-online/super-dune-ii-classic/settlers 3 without expansionComment too long.
