Click the "More Info" button under their portrait. You're going to have to conduct harassment and maybe a conspiracy to send them into political exile. There's also a choice of conspiracy to switch their sympathies, as well as options to conduct training. Might want to check their ages, because Soviet Union is a gerontocracy, and most of these guys are on their death's doorsteps.

>>2090285
That's just Ostalgie. Refusing to liberalize in the original Crisis, you can get the choice to criticize China when they start to liberalize, and get the Tiananmen Square incident, starting an event chain that may cause them to lose Xinjiang and Tibet. That's about it.
>>
>>2090285
You mean reconciliation? When I went through the demo with Romanov I got an event about diplomatic relations that allowed me to pick between focusing on relations with one of France, China and America. Picking that I managed to roll the outcome where the Chinese start preliminary unofficial talks about mending Soviet-Chinese relations. I assume there'd be more events down the line where you have to jack them off until you manage to get them to agree. There's buttons to invite China to COMECON, the Warsaw Pact etc as well so I can only assume you can sway them to your side some way or another.
>>
>>2090356
Don't assume the demo will simply be the same with time limit removed. Check every button for new hidden conditions. The original game had an exception for China being in Comecon on the condition alliance management doesn't go above United, but Sovereign. No Economic Unification with China for you.

I genuinely do not want to do that, they can be Maoist or Dengist or whatever and they don't even need to be in Comecon or the Pact as long as they buy my shit and I can buy theirs. I do not care about Africa or Latin America outside Gaddafi and Castro respectively, I tentatively care about Vietnam but the Eastern Bloc and Afghanistan are the only ones important to the USSR's survival. North Korea also, they are cool. I also don't even know which awful army I should choose between Iraq and Iran, Saddam has the Left Nationalism thing going on but Iran has a great position.

Honestly it seems crazy that they included monarchists even as a concept. Not that I oppose that but the game starting in 85 really limits that kind of thing. Maybe a later start date but even then I don't see it.
>>
Is reviving Bukharin's politics good as Romanov? The check needs moderates (which I get) but what else is possible as Conservatives? Can you change you politics? Romanov is described in game as a Conservative Reformer so it's such a leap as expecting the ability to turn Winespill into a Stalinist.

No, he just does it after you pick Kosolapov. I dunno, if it's part of one of the events, but only Romanov gets it. It might be a hidden stat, since you can actually investigate the real alignments in the politics tab.
>>
>>2091538
That's interesting, Kosolaov is quite the effort to shape into being useful at the real level of power so having an established Stalinist would make that much smoother.

From what I have seen of Volody it states he was a neo-Stalinist, I can see him as just being a hardline conservative but with Chernenko and Romanov already present I don't why they shouldn't include him as a Stalinist. Also what did Romanov do that was so Stalinist? All I have heard is he was a technocrat conservative rather then a return to the 40s type.
>>
>>2092163
That's just Ukrainian nationalist seething. In the twilight of CPSU, wreckers like Gorbachev and his ilk were deathly afraid of anyone who was against dismantling the Soviet system.

It's like current American politicians/newspapers shidding and farding and calling anyone and everyone they don't like a socialist.

I'm actually not sure what the devs obsession with Romanov is. Besides the fact that he was Gorbachev's rival and also a young cadre from Andropov, trying to reform the Soviet Union. But if your goal is based Fully Automated OGAS Luxury Space Gay Communism, he's your guy in every one of their games.

got to 2000 after a few failed attempts as Romanov. Throughout the game I tried turning myself into a Stalinist/Social Patriot and at one point had 100+ points in both, revived the Cult of Stalin, etc, and then somehow a few months later moderates dominated the entire political scene by 200 points and I just couldn't get back.
Won the Afghan and the Nicaragua wars, invaded and split up Iran after they lost the war with Iraq. I was gearing up to invade China (which was embroiled in a civil war) when the game suddenly ended. Wish the whole thing was paced better to make it a proper lead-up into 2000. The second half of the game has a lot less content than the first.

I think what fucked me up when I started was switching to new doctrines via events without understanding what they are (they only show you the names, not the effects). Some of them have really debilitating maluses. Pay attention to those, enable autosave and reload in case you select something that turns out to be dogshit. If you do things right, economy and political power become non-issues in the second half of the game.
>>2092692
just had another run as Grishin. This time I went full Pinochet (or so I thought), concentrated all power in myself and had a semi-market economy. I got to see Trump fumble the presidency into Ron Paul's hands and then I became the undisputed new leader of the economic, if not free, world. And yet the compass shows me I was no different from my attempt at being a social patriot. I don't get this thing at all.

If that was the case China would collapse and millions would starve when Deng did his thing. The actual reason for collapse is political liberalization which makes this game weird since they want me to retain planned economy while liberalizing which doesn't make any sense.

>MOSCOW -- Russian President Boris Yeltsin has issued a decree banning the Communist Party, nationalizing its property, and condemning its activities.
>>
>>2093227
Wait till you learn what party Yeltsin's main opponent in the 1996 election belonged to
>>
>>2093227
Boris Yeltsin did not ban the Communist Party of the Russian Federation (CPRF) because the Russian Constitutional Court ruled that the ban on the Communist Party of the Soviet Union (CPSU) did not extend to its primary organizations, including the CPRF, according to Wikipedia. While Yeltsin initially suspended the CPSU's activities, the court's decision in 1992 effectively allowed for the reorganization of communist forces under different names, with the CPRF emerging as the largest and most prominent.

China under deng was not free market. The state still had lots of control over the economy (state owned sector). The major top corporations were also still soes. This model has continued to this day
China is closer to dirigsme instead of free market
>>2093185
A lot of the developmental succes stories in real life history used dirigsme/dirigste economic policies. Japan, south korea, singapore, taiwan, france and etc were all dirigste economies.
The state guided market economy is the best system. Its superior than free markets and planned economies.

Shcherbytsky is the best starter if you want to become a Social Patriot as he doesn't have any traits that fuck over your influence gain, Chernenko is the best Stalinist as he can start the Cult of Stalin pretty much immediately.

1. You're not a comrade.

My favourite cope is pirates promising to "spread awareness" of the product. As if "paying people in exposure" isn't always same bullshit.

I don't blame you. You're a product of your degenerate, gibsmedat ""culture"".
>>
>>2094433
spread awareness of the product does happen though. i think a book or wahtever publisher hated piracy until he realized piracy rapidly increased his profits by spreading awareness

So is political power gain when you're going democratic tied to congress composition or politicians or whatever the fuck? I suspect it's tied to to either my ministers being from whatever sympathies even though they're loyal. Either that or there's some inconsistencies debuffs due to restrictive stuff elsewhere or civil activity and freedoms being low.
God I wish I knew how this shit worked. Going Perestroika fucking sucks big dick, especially when trying to integrate into the EU. Going full Deng or full Stalin is ezpz so why is going full AnCap so hard? Gonna try for AnCap Stalinist next, fuck Gorbachev and his drunk gremlin sidekick.

According to this game the Soviet Union collapsed because Gorbochev was weak and going full Stalin would've saved the union. Really?

With Stalinists there would atleast be an active attempt to resolve the situation, whether that would would work is debateable but the Conservatives would have had everything go to shit but keep it together with nukes and aks. We all saw what happened when the Liberals were in charge of "saving the Union".

the great purges and etc werent wrong ideas conceptually. It just needed to be moderated and target the right people

It's mostly just minor nerfs, rebalances. Territorial Defense no longer gives +50% to MIC income. You can select Adoption through Referendums directly, instead of going through the Party composition.

Atheism still not buffed, State Ownership of Religion is crazy strong.
>>
>>2095105
It was a classic case of a policy that need significant rework/reform being completely rebuked which lost any benefit from it ever having existed. Khrushchev should have moderated De-Stalinization so it did not dilute the party's authority (Keep Stalingrad but stop naming any new locations after him) and so all the energy you found in the late Stalinist era would be retained yet focused on more modern goals (battling corruption, enforcing social cohesion, underming nationalist discourse). The USSR bouncing between subset theories of Communism really exacerbated every issue.

Im saying that the policy should have been geared more towards anti corruption, anti liberalism and etc like xi jinping is doing. And should have not engaged in this weird trot-bukharin-zioneiv saboteur mass conspiracy.
In china, this style of purging is working. The anti corruption campaign in china has achieved a lot of succesful results. Without engaging in the extreme excesses associated with the great purges

I did my first playthrough as a conservative and lost in 1990 because my economy went into the shitter and radicals could not be tard wrangled.
I need basic pointers on what to do, what to invest in and what not, how wars work and that conspiracy decision in the politics menu.
>>
>>2097272
there are guides on Steam. Stick with conservatives or moderates for your first few playthroughs, you can branch out into others later (the hardest ones are informal socialists IMO).
on your first month, invest 80 into importing luxury goods. This will kneecap one of your negative modifiers (acquaint yourself with all three of them, they're very important). You can immediately remove that import next month.
investing into heavy industry boosts light and military industry. You can keep the latter at 100 most games, though probably not right off the bat. Invest into government to prevent corruption, you'll get all of the money back because clearing out corruption unfucks your economy.
>>
>>2097272
Always keep an eye on the economy tab and which sectors of the economy is going up or down. As long as they're high your economy does well. You wanna stack % increases for big money, otherwise neo colonialism can give insane amounts of cash.
Just get cash, reinvest where needed. Fund departments as needed, KGB is your friend
>>
How do wars work and how much can you influence them?
>>
damn game looks shit
>>
>>2097585
click on the yellow symbol near the war zone, a menu will pop up. The more boxes you tick, the more support you will send (and the more it will cost you in funds, special service strength, military strength, etc). Your scientific progress affects some of those effects.

I bought all of their games before. I'm waiting to buy this one after a few patches because i was really disappointed with Collapse, it looked like it was made in MS Paint and it had the most confusing UI ever, big stepback from their older games, especially since Ostalgie and Mao were very polished compared to Crisis in the Kremlin.

Of the top 15 guys only like 2 of them have less than 100 loyalty, and last I checked they had like 60~ on average. Did the event I get appear because of a conspiracy? I thought it was just a random or periodic one that existed more to let the player shit on the groups that he doesn't like.

Yes, AI can start conspiracies. Yes, you can join them. One was likely started against you. It is NOT a scheduled event.

Do you think they will make a USA dlc? I was wondering what other nation they could make and I think it is a toss up on whether a smaller nation (South Africa perhaps) would be easier to make or whether a larger nation (USA) would be worth more comparatively. I personally hope for the US, maybe keep it simple with standard Democrat-Republican factions but with unique wings such as Buchanan vs Bush or Clinton and his Third Way. I was surprised but interested in just how much options you are given regarding influencing foreign politics such as Britain's Old vs New Labour and Germany's NPD.
>>
>>2099193
Yugoslavia is next. The devs really want to show off their war mechanics, I suppose. Also, China.
>>
>>2099200
I know it is different but they have already done Yugoslavia in Ostalgie and gave a whole game to China, I would be disappointed if they spent their time and effort on that again. Crisis in the Kremlin works so well for geopolitical chess that the US would fit it perfectly. What new gameplay would they even add to Yugo and China to make it different from before? Half the events needed for the US are already there they just need to switch perspective.
>>
>>2099213
>gave a whole game to China
It actually ended in 1985, Ostalgie is just 3 years.

Giving The Great Satan a chance for a playthrough defeats the whole purpose of the game.

USA or another major NATO power could be fun as a way to play through a different collapse of the USSR, ie, dismembering Russia.

They were apparently going to add Libya, Vietnam and Greece to Ostalgie but the dev got drafted. Would be interesting if they returned to those. Egypt, Iran or Iraq could be interesting as well for a middle eastern royal rumble.

Well anyway, I managed to avoid getting deposed by starting from the last autosave and picking the option to criticize reformers, instead of doing nothing. I'm not sure how it works but that helped. Then I absolutely raped the whole world.
I just checked Gorbachev up to the latter half of 1986 and it seems like it's pretty much impossible to fracture even as him? Or at least there didn't seem to be anything that allows it. What's the method for breaking the union and going for Russia here?

I would definitely return to Ostalgie for those countries, I also think it would be interesting if you could collapse the USSR as the US but play it better then our timeline. Actually taking an effort to rebuild Russia and mould it to be Western ally. Of course if that is too much of a wholesome world peace path then you could explore the plundering aspect.

>>2099814
From what I can tell it's all three of their stats falling below 10. After that they have an election and collapse if Ayn gets elected, revive if Donald does. If the latter then you have to lower their stats again for them to abandon NATO and being a world power. Then they just sit there like that unless you declare victory in the cold war.

Or will you just pretend that its a-okay for the entire Caucasus to explode with racial pogroms and every border republic to demand independence the moment you slightly lift the jackboot? Have you considered that if all it took for the entire state to be looted overnight was the appearance of the ability to do it, then maybe literally no one gave a shit about USSR to begin with? Simple truth is the entire structure was rotten to hell and you're just blaming the guy who tried to do foundation repair and had the entire thing fall on top of him after the first minute.

And even if we accept your premise that
>id wuz all da gorbachebs fault!!1!1
It doesn't change my thesis that Russian 90's ass-disaster was self-inflicted. I don't know how else you can come out with any other conclusion when you see that all post-Soviet/WPO states that maintained a westward path are now way better off than Russia.

nta but he quite literally says right there the collapse started with khruschev

Yes, which is the ultimate schizoid commie talking point considering that Khruschev basically did fuck all different from Stalin except...
>Destroying Stalin cult
>Making planned economy slightly more planned
>Giving gibs to collective farmers
>Focusing more on consumer goods
So the quetching about him is ultimately no different that Moldbug's NRX schizoposting about how great it would all be if we had a religious god-king to unify the nation to pre-enlightenment values, except here the god-king is Stalin. This is hilarious because it displays how hard stalinoids actually hate the common man and think they are cattle that would all betray them so long as they aren't being brainwashed into leaderworship. Granted, we are talking about Russians here...

>Destroying Stalin cult
He literally created in the first place. Stalin was against the cult.
>Making planned economy slightly more planned
He reintroduced market elements to the planned economy. Khruschev's economic reforms were the exact same things Stalin warned not to do in his Economic Problems of the Soviet Economy.
>Giving gibs to collective farmers
He ended the MTS system, thereby significantly buggering up how socialist development of agriculture

Are you perhaps planning on pulling off some grand, beautiful acrobatic moves to completely ignore the fact that states like Poland are several times richer than Russia is?

DLC, you mean. Don't worry, CitK will get there, too, eventually.

I just said GDP, nigga.
>>
What does "economy" mean in the context of essential goods.
>>
>>2121179
It really is.
>>
What causes inflation and is massive inflation after moving off planned economy expected?
>>
>>2121186
Most of Russia's problems today unironically go back to the way Yeltsin handled things.
GDP dropped by 40% in 10 years, hyperinflation, collapse in living standards across the board, every social service destroyed, every major enterprise run by a small group of extremely corrupt kleptocrats.
All my homies hate Yeltsin.

Is it possible to prevent chernobyl by having the nuclear or ecology sliders at a certain value?
Being forced to rush the nuclear techs at the start seems very inefficient if you don't plan to research further down the tree.
>>
>>2126236
>Is it possible to prevent chernobyl
Yes, if I remember correctly you need to go through the first two peaceful nuclear techs and do their decisions.
>Being forced to rush the nuclear techs at the start seems very inefficient
I wouldn't say its inefficient at all, they have decent bonuses. I also have no clue why you wouldn't want to go further down after that.

i just got rid of that conscription shit shouldnt the army love me??

It's like decay, costs more to keep the numbers at a higher level.
This applies to political authority too, best to spend it all at the end of the month.

>>2126349
>>2126359
First time dealing with logarithmic functions? Rate of returns isn't linear. Pushing a value higher and higher takes more and more effort.

>>2126364
>>2126365
oh wait u guys were right i guess the decision made the army super loyal so the game was balancing it out, im at +12 now, got scared for a bit
>>
>>2126367
It'll even out and settle on a number, relax.

Feels like half the time I have to prepare for a million different things that I dont even know are gonna appear

Live and learn.

There's no RNG at all in the game, even the events that seem to have random outcomes are deterministic. Seems they always depend on your ideology.
None of the events by themselves are all that nasty either, most likely you've been neglecting a slider but didn't notice it.
>>
>>2126319
None, fuck Yugoslavia. You can always invade them after the US collapses.

>Sometimes this game popped up in my mind because I never managed to "win" it, just stay in power with a union dissolved and a nation surviving but in ruinous debt. So I decided to try again and perhaps discover the intricacies of the most mysterious part of the game: the budget. My challenge being: Can I keep the union playing as a hard liner?

>So I used cheat engine to give myself an "infinite" amount of money to see if maxing all social values I could have a different outcome, and the result, as I suspected back then when I first started playing this game in my teenage years is: No, you can't keep the union. As I can infer, many of the events are scripted and cannot be altered regardless of how well the nation is.

>You can set economic aid sliders of republics/soviet bloc/foreign aid to 9999 and it won't affect any outcome.

>So the game sets you up in a linear path and only gives you the illusion of choice and control, you can have all your stats maxed in the green and it won't matter;

>This is not an ask for help, I just want to leave this here for posterity.
I guess this settles the debate forever.

How do I get Market Share up?

What exactly do the dimensions have to be for a custom portrait? And what should I focus on to make him live long, can I settle for age 68 and make it to 2000? What improves health/decrease it?
>>
>>2127710
this is dumb because you can in fact keep the union together
>>
>>2131109
They're talking about the original, before Kremlingames (RIP the old name) decided to pick up the property and make a game where you could actually win.
