ABOLISH THE ELECTORAL COLLEGEI went full fire and fury, and only Cali, Wisconsin and Boshwash were blue around the question 28, but all the white states went blue in the end. Should have went all in on Florida
Lmao what are those awards>Astro getting all 3 best moder awardsThe fuck? >Our Revolution getting best alt-histWHAT ARE YOU SMOKING??? You literally gave an award to March on Washington for its lore, not to mention other alt-hist mods on the list. How did this lazy ass "What if Bernie but actually its Biden" shit with awful overengineered mechanics got anything???>Best Gameplay for IcarusOh I see, so the way to win best gameplay is to just do a lot of hahafunni CRT monitor NATOWAVE gifs.
Hope is very cool mechanically but when it comes to the writing it's absurd dogshit, worst characterisation of Bill Clinton i've ever seen. Where's that entire part where Clinton had to defend himself from the rape allegations that came up from his years as governeror? you can end the war on drugs?? as BIll Clinton??? the man that was so pro death Penalty he flew back to Arkansas mid campaign to assure that a guy was going to get executed???? and despite all of this you can still get supermajority shit, honestly just really weird. the good part are the foreign relations decisions, those are rather well written, but everything else is awful.
>>2318819half of the time it feels like TCT mods depict people that dont actually exist IRL
>>2320237Why make a "Positive vibes" mod about fucking Bill Clinton in the first place.
waiting for elder kings editionprev>>2229560
>>2320007meanwhile, the other province modifiers are pretty negligible >combat advantage: natural via terrain>travel safety: never any issue>fortification level: part of the city tier/defenses upgrade>garrison: a raw numbers gameat least duchy capitals get their unique building, but only Universities provide a mechanic, rather than just modifiers
>>2320007>Without any kind of pops, rural/urban split,That's some potential for interesting discussion.I don't think any PDX game captures urbanization very well. Maybe EU5 and VIC3, but I haven't played them.For CK3, I think one way to represent urbanization would be to have an urbanization percentage for every barony, which would represent the percentage of people who live within the main settlements, and not in the countryside.And such a percentage could modify garrison size, levies, taxes, and disease resistance.But people would say it is too similar to Development, though Development is a kinda shit mechanic and should be replaced with something.
I dont think CK needs pops or a more developed economy/urban management. It's a game about characters and that's fine. Not every paradox title needs to evolve into the omnigame that features every system to simulate every aspect of reality.If you want more complexity, put it in the stuff that matters. Interpersonal relationships, succession, laws.
>>2320125>If you want more complexity, put it in the stuff that matters. Interpersonal relationships, succession, laws.Based. Just don't add paradox style "complexity" for complexity sake, ie, now you need ten more clicks and three submenus to have less agency than before.
If I make a 20 minute long video of me playing tall (afk-ing) and then TAKING OVER THE WORLD in every duchy in the game do you think I could put every ck3 streamer out of a job?
why is nobody talking about this? biggest total war mod just dropped for attila and it made the games peak population triple overnight.
>>2311543The best part is that patching old games always breaks all the mods. The main reason that the big high effort mods always get released for the old, outdated TW games and not the latest shiniest piece of kit is because it's impossible to properly develop a large, long-term project when the game is still being updated and thus breaking your mod every few weeks.By going back to patch old games they're going to break every single mod. A lot of those mods, like QoL, bugfix and performance mods are essential to play the games but are long-dead and definitely won't be getting updated after the patch breaks them so the net effect on the overall game will be a huge negative, and larger mod projects whose entire workflow is built around the stable environment and the presence of those long-standing performance and bugfix mods will be sent into a tailspin.I'm very much looking forward to the absolute shitshow when they patch Attila, fix like 1/10th of the things the community bugfix patch fixes and simultaneously kill both 1212AD and Dawnless Days.
>>2303478It's fun for a game or two (I'm sure the terrible faction balance will be fixed soon enough/with submods) but honestly the War of the Ring just isn't very suited to a Total War game unless you completely go off-script. The good factions were able to hold the line for like six months once Sauron started moving and had basically zero offensive capabilities. They should just set the game during the 2nd or early 3rd Age, that way it'd make sense to have the factions relatively balanced (save maybe Numenor during the late 2nd Age) and have the usual TW gameplay of actually going out and conquering shit with all sides.
>>2315179Why would they do that? It made sense when Bethesda tried this because they wanted to make mods a paid, copyrighted product. But what does killing mods for old games get CA? Surely they don't think people will buy their newest slop just because they broke mods in an older game with an update.
>>2312749Because they make playing as any of the good factions boring as shit by mopping up most of the evil ones.
Did they nerf Dale yet?

Romans should get Isis as a major god. You know it to be true.

>>2320229some posts are just too based of sissy jannies, but I saw that
>>2320212The god artist for AoM called the Atlantean gods Roman. And several of their units are gladiators or Roman siege equipment.
>>2320202yeah I meant food uus. when do you add the farms? I want to do it as spanish.
Has anyone tried this game? could a smooth brained person like me enjoy it? I found Dominions and Conquest of Elysium too much menuing and strategy for my taste
>>2314292that sucks, hopefully they explain it more in the chronicles somewhere
Is Musket easy mode?
>>2319691It's probably one of the best factions, but you do have to conquer the Demon Island if you're following their story.
>>2320136Demon island is a breeze if you attempt to attack them in end game
>>2319691very much, yeah. lars's squad solos just about every army in the game, and muskets in general are OP.
I love the Jadd editionPrevious thread: 2167441
>>2320201Giga retarded. Jadd clearly is elf mohammed
Jaddar - MosesJadd - JudaismHarpy Sex - the Promised Land
>>2320205Except Jaddar is way more honest than Mo was."God commands me to marry this kid", "God says adoption isn't real, conveniently allowing me to marry my adopted son's ex-wife", "God says men can marry four women only but I get to marry as many as I want", "God says my wives can't marry after I die", "God says we need to raid these caravans"
>>2320201Sun Cults are supposed to be zoroastrians.>>2320205They never denied Jadd = Mohammad connection.
>>2320260Huh, makes sense in hindsight with how they're monotheists focused on fighting darkness I guess. I just wrote them off as Abrahamics with old/new based on whether they felt Elves were the master race or not.

You guys think this game is gonna be an FF6 style game with an ensemble cast or will it continue the Fire Emblem tradition of being shackled to decades long tropes?
Did Erika ever have romantic feelings for Lyon?
>>2312350nah, at most they were friends, but Lyon didn't like being friendzoned.
>>2312350It could have been. Maybe if they had more time, but it was never explicitly stated.
Which game would benefit the most from a Sequel or a trilogy ending?
>>2320165A sequel to Awakening who will be Futur past dlc with Morgan as the new avatar.Awakening would be the original timeline story with a bad ending so no time travel from Naga.For a Trilogy, a game who will be the sequel to Gaiden and Fe 3 book 2.A war between Akaneia and Valentia.

>>2296016>picthis mission starts you off trying to break tanya out of jail right?
>>2320118Yeah, you only have the spy. Then you have to dismantle SAMs with Tanya to get your actual force. I hate that part on OG RA because you get discovered instantly and V2'd.
Is after the end worth playing? If so which version? Also CK2 thread
>>2164054In my personal mod, I added coronations to a few other Christian religions (Like Nazarene) and also fixed a few errors in Cristo Rey coronations. I meant to add them to Deposed, but never got around to it.>>2174199Yeah, but unfortunately, it's really barebones and I kept forgetting to add that one anon's Scientology additions to Deposed, I'll have to do so in the next update.>>2179403For the True Cross revolt, I mostly just fixed things, renamed/edited a lot of stuff, and changed some genders (Originally, two female characters were spawned in married to each other, with one of them starting pregnant with the other's child (???)). The starting date and troop numbers are all untouched from the original Mormon event. I always meant to come back to and refine that whole event chain, as it was originally left unfinished. I'll try to at least rebalance it if I have the time.In almost all of my tests of the event chain before I released that update, if the invasion didn't outright fail, it would start off strong but the empire would collapse after Saul Tarsus died, so I thought it balanced out well.Going by your experience, maybe pushing that event chain out 20-50 years would be a good idea?Also, thank you.>>2180219There's a few easter eggs hidden amongst those fitty men.

>>2319198>>2319215very nice, with these new counties I assume you're gonna add in new houses and probably make all of wisconsin part of that one kingdom that's north of chicago?I love the attention to detail with the lakes and rivers tooI hope you find your info>>2319256what if you merged the counties of Morris and Kittinen? also, will you remove that kike and add in more americanists? I feel like north and south jersey can be ruled by two familiesI agree with renaming Raritan to PalisadesI feel like Staten Island should be added to Brooklyn, being its own province is kinda dumb, plus even Staten Islanders call it the forgotten borough lolLiberty island should also be part of Manhattan, NYC is the biggest city of the USA, so I don't think it's a big deal if they get a lot of stuffI'm pretty sure most of these have flags, even if they're just the seals on a colored background
I feel like I spend most of my time in the find character menu. Is that normal?
>>2320181No. I mean, it's a useful menu, but I don't check it all that often. I use marriage menu and look for claims through title menu more often.
>>2316148Got 600 raiding troops from the councilor mission and made 250 gold in pillages and ransoms just from raiding 4 counties around me. Feels so good.Waiting for war event troops now so I can finally start conquering.
How long until Paradox abandon EU5? This was supposed to be their magnum opus.. no one wants to play..
>>2320279I would play it but I only have 8GB RAM
>>2320279civ6 bros, huge W
>>2320279Seems fine to me.This time after Civ6's release, Civ5 had gone back to being on top.Took 2 years for Civ6 to finally beat Civ5.Yet here Eu5 is still ahead of Eu4 already.Would probably do a lot better if more people could afford upgrades to run the game.
The unreal engine is a crime against humanity.
>>2320279>Less players than StellarisLmao
>passing laws is now slightly less annoyingAmazing! At this rate the game will finally be be fixed by 2035!
>>2318633Damn, the internet is full of Joffreys.
When am I going to be able to use my home country's techology in a foreign investment ? Can this shit be modded in any way ?Its retarded to have a corporation from a modernized country be limited to just building farming huts outside of it.
>>2319246>men on the MoonNASA use predominantly metric units tho
>>2314512agree and disagree... I did hated the mobilization system and how every war was dragged out by infinite infantry spam but at same time i miss cheesing by forcing ai to fight me on the top of mountains KEK
Why cant i put a gun to my central bankers head and tell them to just print more money in thus game?
so what exactly went wrong with this one?for me the very first thing was the prefabricated buildings. they advertised the game as rimworld meets ck. let me build everything manually bro....!
>>2319767>Rimworld, but without the modding, DLCs or handsome developer.Buy the Book.
>>2319767It's more focusing on the sim elements of the characters than the city building. How is it going wrong? There's still multiple updates in the works.
>dev says its out of EA in 2027 maybeoh NIG
>>2319767Fun for about 2 hours, and that's it. The hard cap on the character limit kills most of the social sim elements and makes the economy even more into a micromanaging hell.
>>2319767>so what exactly went wrong with this one?... everything?The sole fact this game was made from ground up for the sake of forced memes should tell you everything
Can anyone tell me why my guys are starving despite available logistic points being like 7 times higher than consumed ones? Are they just too fucking lazy to pick up their stuff or what?Logistics man, how the fuck do they work?
>>2318516Its advised not to go totally ape shit with your army maybe breakthrough with a few units, just to be kind to your logistics.Cause if that breaks down you can pretty much drop the soap to your enemy.People aren't joking here that logistics will filter you.
>>2319654Click on it. And in the bottom left of the screen you should see the option to nationalize it for 500 credits. It’s the same place where you can mothball assets.
>>2319658alternatively, overbuild your truck / rail station?truck station level isn't tied to zone level so you can go as wild as you want.also also, if you get applied science council, have them discover logistics optimization and put points into it for free logi points
>>2319797Really depends on your infrastructure you have ready.If you are getting suddenly invaded unprepared for whatever reason in some remote area. Even 2 full brigades with some tanks can be a nightmare to supply when they all are in combat.And you don't have the economy or tech for sealed roads/trains.Plus the amount of ammo they can eat up.You are pretty much forced to go "soft" on your enemy.
>>2320230If you don't have infrastructure to defend and area then there's no point in defending it, it's too far away from your cities to matter.
play the original? or the Civ IV spinoff? or Imperialism I (or Imperialism II)? I did play the original Colonization a bit as a kid but concerned how the DOSBox version (GOG version) runs
MONTREAL has been capturedhowever i still have to launch a punitive expedition against the Iroquois for supporting the french, man all of my forts with soldiers and guns, and get circa 30 dragoons and 10 artillery as a land army, before i can even think of fighting the King's Army
whats the difference between normal civ and civ col? is this more economy focused?
