I've no idea how this is going to work out but rate my masterplan for crushing Soviets:>build up infra towards poland + build a fleet of transport planes to make a chain of supplies being flown from Paris to the frontline>get some extra convoys as well to supply ports close to the front line>lower NU on soviets through spies>USA at 63% neutrality, raise some threat on the Japs to get sweet lend-lease>maybe try influencing Romania so they remain neutral for a smaller front>invade spring 1942 with a target force of ~1.2M including one full high quality armoured army and 800k MP in reserve>build as many Tac/Int as I can (current airforce is pathetic)>I get stalled? take up defensive positions and wait until mid 1944 to nuke MoscowI only get 50 MP per month and I'm currently fielding an army of 850k so I don't think I can go sooner than 1942. My techs will be much better but unlike Barbarossa my supply comes from paris rather than berlin. At least the fucks won't get great patriotic war.
is eu4 a railroaded game? like when you play smaller nation is there only one way to grow and become 1#GP or there are a lot of viable options?
its not railroaded but most nations have mission trees and the player is encouraged to follow those because they give big bonuses.but you can do whatever you want

That's too fucking bad, but it's true, for fucking hundreds of fucking years, EIGHT HUNDRED fucking years Lithuania has been fucking dabbing on you cocksucking motherfuckers. Look, look I get it dude all of your history is bascially just tending the fucking potato fields for the big fucking baltic bull, but look it's not that bad? I mean we treated you pretty good, right? We gave you fucking rights we let you speak your language, we let your people, you know participate in the governing process, it's beautiful! We were such benevolent rulers you don't have to be so fucking mad, you don't have to be upset you know? Just accept it. Lithuania ruled the slavs, look, look we're all friends here right? Like I get it you gotta suck your fucking dictator cocksuckers dick Lukashenko, whatever the fuck he is, porkashenko, fucking Kikelensky all the fucking shenko's, who gives a shit. You fucking Cossack mongoloid spawn of satan, accept the fact that WE WUZ DUKES AND YOU WUZ SERFS, and we can all live peacefully, and if you use that fucking LE ZMUDZIN, I mean.. dude like there's no hope for you, like, first of all. Žemaitėjė or Samogitia in autist terms - is a region of Lithuania, pretty cool region, but to say that the ENTIRETY of modern nation of Lithuania is just Samogitia, is just so fucking braindead, like I honestly can't even wrap my fucking head around that shit kid, look dude, Accept who you are, accept your history, accept your past and you know your life is gonna be better.

How do you get a good industry in vicky 2 as a small/undeveloped country? Been trying to play as countries like Greece, Argentina, etc. and I manage to get good armies, prestige, literacy, population and all that, but I simply can't get my industry goingTried managing everything with state capitalism and no subsidies and it can work for a while but I always get stuck at some pointAlso tried going free trade with really low taxes and negative tariffs and I have a steady progress but doesn't feel like it's enough, even similar countries get so much moreI also tend to get resources from Africa and other smaller countries I have access toThe only moment in which I got a decent industry was by conquest. Managed to form the Gran Colombia and I got into the top 8 thanks to all that oil I got, but otherwise I have no clue.

>>1929696Early industrialisation is an easy trap to fall into. Pops get a penalty for promoting to craftsmen if their literacy is below 30%, and a penalty for promoting to clerks if their literacy is below 50%. Most of the majors and a handful of the minors can get going from day 1, but shitholes like you're asking about are better off ignoring industry completely for the first few decades.Obviously look into industrial tech before you get going - input and output in particular. If you don't have good input/output, high throughput is useless at best and can even be downright harmful. Similarly, building your factories so their inputs are produced locally provides a throughput bonus, so while it's a good idea later on it's not something you should be concerned with initiallyCapitalists reduce factory input costs, and clerks increase factory output. The latter are extremely useful when your populace is literate enough. A 4:1 craftsman:clerk ratio is the most efficient, though naturally it becomes harder to maintain as your craftsman population growstl;dr just build liquor factories everywhere
>>1929696The industry score only cares about the amount of pops you have employed. Not about how full your factories are or how much profit they make.This basically means that countries with small populations, or countries with big populations that started with very low literacy, will never be able to naturally break the top 5 in industry score.

Anonymous 01/06/25(Mon)11:32:39 No.1929749▶ how will you cope when someone makes a better eu5 before eu5 even releases

>>1929696Don't try to industrialize too early, you will sink lot of money for little gain. Make sure you have literacy and bureaucrats first. Tariffs are mostly a trap, the game doesn't operate on "you buy where it's cheapest" but rather 1st GP buys and sells first, then 2nd GP buys and sells and so fort. Negative tariffs thus don't help your goods to sell, rather it's a cash bonus for your factories and artisans especially which granted you may still want to do but it's equivalent to subsidizing them. If anything you want high tariffs to starve out the artisans while subsidizing your factories.As a result of the previous the most important thing to industry is getting a high enough rank to sell first, high enough domestic use (e.g. large pop + many armies for military goods) or lots of sphere members which share an internal market with an emphasis on the sphere members total consumption e.g. their population and to lesser degree their industrialization. These 3 factors usually correlate well but there's cases where it's easier to focus on one or two of those aspects on certain countries.Build as best as you can for your domestic use. It's not called Liqqi 2 for nothing. Craftsmen, farmers and labourers have only RGO's as their life needs but then demand lots of liquor in particular + lesser amounts of clothes and furniture and bit of fertilizer on top. Focus on these goods in particular with your early factories because you have infinite domestic demand.Beyond that it's really just a matter of getting enough techs to stay competitive or staying rich enough that you can constantly expand your factories while subsidizing them. Try to keep your taxes on the upper class low and high on the other 2 to encourage the useless pops to switch to craftsmen and clerks.

is the apotheosis mod for ck3 fun? I feel like larping as a greek nigga but dont feel like learning imperator
Essentially, total wars battles and strategic map, but part of the game is making sure supply lines stay up, making sure those supply lines have wagons, carts or some form of vehicle to use, making sure soldiers and cities have food, weapons, Armor, etc. Anything like it? Or at least close
saluzzo has nice ideas but I can't be assed to restart a million times so I decided to start as milan and try doing sardinia-piedmont -> italy as them, we balling so far
There's nothing to learn in imperator if you played dogshit4 before (I know you did), mechanically it's a very simple game
i once restarted like 50 times until i got a pu on milan as savoy in 1445
doesn't france always rival savoy so you can ask them to support independence
as saluzzo? they start independent

kinda interesting Paradox goes with the jewish claim and portrays second temple judaism as strictly monotheistic while total war just doesn't put Yawheh and his special tribe in the game about the relevant period
no wonder we aren't on /vg/ anymore, this thread ded

Why do you have different fonts everywhere? Like the one on the left is vanilla dogshit4 font but the one in the outliner looks like stellaris font, and then a third font for the map

i really like RJ01281684 and RJ01057538i like the general setting of them being gods, but on top of that their voices and manners of speech are very fitting for their roles which makes it fucking brilliant, and theres plenty of talking which is nice as i personally dont give shit about trite like ear cleaning and that other stuffone other thing i deeply enjoyed is how when during ear cleaning they just start repeating a certain sound, for example in 01057538 she starts going "kai~ kai~" for a while very softly and gently and while that kai means fuck all it certainly DOES feel good and relaxing to hear thatas i have written in the comments i certainly hope for many sequels to this series and judging from the sales i assume & hope that at least one more will come out

been learning about stalinwhat a sneaky bastard with that operation snowtruly a hoi4 master
my favourite Stalin fact is that he was a bit of a jokesterhe forced Khrushchev, a fatass with no finesse, to do traditional Cossack danceshe'd dare his guards to fall asleep with the implied threat of whatever Stalin did with people who displeased him... and then let them sleep without issuehe repeatedly put tomatoes in the pockets and on the seats of Politburo membersoverall the sort of guy it'd be cool to have a drink with, if he wasn't a raving paranoid lunatic who'd have you shot for existing

>>1930964There are the Elephantine documents that shows there existed a respected and large jewish polytheistic group not long before the start of the game. That's just one group but it's also the only pre Alexandrian Codex jewish stuff we got. Even if we assume the polytheistic elements had all become irrelevant or were on their way out by 300 years the Game errs in portraying Judaism as a static already finished religion. Daniel wasn't written till about a century after the startdate but he exists from the start as a prophet. But like you said it's about playing it safe.
Why is Nahuatl an unreformed religion in ck2? Aztecs are a literal continent-spanning empire (events mention them gobbling up the entirety of NA too so two-continent-spanning empire), and they are as advanced as Europe if not more, how come they've achieved all this while still having an unreformed religion? Every other nation that's even remotely on the same level as Aztecs has reformed religion. Seems like a large mistake on pdx's partFeel free not to post about just how unrealistic that dlc is and how much you hate it because such sentiment doesn't concern me much
I think it's meant to make it slightly harder for an AI Aztec empire to stay intact and give the player a challenge if he decides to convert. Or because it became out before the old gods DLC and paradox likes to ignore fixing old bugs
bless up bros turkey is back on the menu
I like the first hypothesis, but the second one is probably the correct one.Interesting how ottomans blobbed into ukraine instead of going central europe. You still have yet to disclose your visual mods
i have the best looking eu4 map mod installed and multiple people have asked me what do i use and i also gave them my answer....and yet literally no one ever posted using the same visual mod as me :/
1.8.0 has been for two months and had six patches and they still haven't fixed nationalists being able to flip provinces where they make out a few percent of the populationthis was before 1850 for me as greece

the shades of color still make it look like dogshit
let's goooo
also what the fuck, why is the color of one nation bleeding out past the border onto the other country's coloris it the mod that sucks or the game?
different mapmode from the political one, dark green is full core light green is territorial core

This partition thing is so fucking aids, italy dumps all their fucking mana into trying to claim my side of the yugos first
this nigga hasnt read sun tzuprolonged warfare has never benifitted a country
This is how the first attempt ended up
>>1931709If the Great War wasn't so bloody and prolonged, almost every country in Western Europe would've had some sort of socialist uprising at home, but most of the potential revolutionaries had died at Verduns and Passchendaeles.
oh really?
yeah it hits the ottomans but it doesnt benefit youyoure better off finishing your war asap
Second attempt. Germany and Italy kept staying x2 and x3 claims on shit that belonged to me and wouldn't claim those two states on the left, forcing me to do it so I could issue the ultimatum to Yugoslavia

HELLO
hi how ya' doin'
>>1930660>>1928383does a thanedom have any interesting mechanics or is it just another word for duchy it makes me think that in history there was an event or multiple concurrent similar events where the vizier-equivalent ("thane") of the feudal country seized power and ruled in a shogun-like way where the monarch is still the head of state but the thane rules the land feudally, so all the land is held in thanedom and the monarch would only own his bedroom in a castle in the capitalyes??? no??
Finished my trial run of Romania. Things went pretty well, but I want to aim a little bit higher. I forgot that monarchies are a little more restricted with conscription laws, and I hit a wall with manpower. I couldn't get the necessary 700k into the field to annex turkey with me missing a law and having 100k stuck occupying. This time I'll do Greece before Yugoslavia (it's so early I roll them and trying to get a wider front wasn't necessary). I was worried about getting my divisions on the map the gear they needed and slowed down recruitment to better handle the early wars.This time I'm going all out until I've got 700k in the field right from the beginning, and I'll actually know what wars I have coming because I wasn't sure who would accept partition/puppeting and who wouldn't.
>>1931755
that faggot doesn't actually use that word in its original wayto him, 'thane' is just another name for himself or his god or his idea of what jesus ishas nothing to do with dukes or earls or jarls
wtf is that what a weirdo
*pushes you*stop bullying thane if you know whats good for you
bet i could lob him out the window with one hand
>>1931757Son of a bitch, this time they just accepted. I think the Czechs are big enough for me to upgrade laws so I'll have to try again.
Alright, I've cucked Germany by getting them stuck in an early war with France and eventually the rest of the Allies, while I should have free reign to take Greece and Turkey without interference. Then I'll be in a prime position to have the Soviets kill themselves on two short fortified borders.

why in 5 years

i never cared about railroad tree but it seems you clicked the mission too soon bruhanyway new redhawk ft L8 collab just droppedhttps://youtu.be/ugm3sjpzHKw?si=8sFEpFjXu8H6qPIZ
you just need to not make the retarded mistake i always do and ally one of the non-free cities with the land and you should be good
>>1932231I've heard that mission is a trap of sorts and just giving up the union is much better starter for Brandenburg, since even if you succeed, everyone will be pissed at you for years
>>1932252Correct you need to start working on it day 1 if you are going to do it. Everyone getting pissy is irrelevant as you should be able to ally austria + 1 regional power in 1444
do you think johan would send me a test build if i sent him pictures of my maps ??

no map mod is based. yeah eu4 map is ugly but map mods are just polished turds, might as well stick to the turd and be authentic.btw disabling post process effects and bloom in video settings gets rid of the ugly glow effect which makes it easier to look at, only learned this recently myself.
