Nigga, there is a good chance this game is older than you

So the royal navy can blockade Budapest, duh.

most recent one is this

haven't played it but looks pretty kino

Looks like temu Thrones of Lorraine, but I'm willing to give it a shot if it doesn't lag like ToL does
>>
>>2131880
>Thrones of Lorraine
Whatever happened to that mod anyway?
>>
>>2131908
it's dead.
but there's a super railroaded DoD fan fork and it's kinda fun
>>
>red ottomans

absolutely fucking disgusting

Don't listen to that anon.
DoD fanfork is pure commie bullshit.

>DoD fanfork is pure commie bullshit.
Haven't played it but how?
>>
>>2132488
I don't know about the commie stuff but I've played it and the writing in the events and decisions is kinda ass, and some of it hard to take seriously. There's one path in the Belgian Confederacy with event choices that are just like "PILLAGE AND BURN HAHAHA" and most events for other countries are just Hoi4 mod TNO visual novel shit with purple prose.
And it is really railroaded, like half of your playtime will just be waiting for events to happen so you can actually do something and the paths are prone to bugging out if you decide to practice free will and start wars on your own. Also it's based on Pop Demand Mod instead of HPM which is pretty annoying if you're used to vanilla DoD or other HPM-based mods.

I really like how the setting is much more "historically plausible" than vanilla DoD but I can't recommend it for the aforementioned reasons.
>>
>>2132526
dod has always been based on pop demand, someone only made an HPM version many years later
>>
>>2132526
there are no good alt history mods
>>
>>2132897
False
>>
>>2132897
Napoleon's Legacy is pure kino
>>
>>2130778
It's called a Meme River. Normal rivers only give a 1 point crossing penalty so some mods add inland sea tiles that look like rivers so that you instead get a 2 point crossing penalty.
>>
>>2132897
trail of khans in your path
>>
>>2133422
it's 2ez4me

>>2133422
Best version/fork to use?
>>
>>2130728
Someone should make a mod where you can see river crossings. EU4 has a mapmode built in where every province is colour-coded by terrain type and has thick blue borders for rivers. The province screen doesn't even describe rivers.
>>
>>2132897
Regular Divergences of Darkness is extremely good.
>>
>>2133694
I'm pretty sure one of the UI/map mods that the multiplayer tryhards use improves visibility of rivers, I don't know what the name of it is though
>>
What happened to that early modern period mod that had RGO's working as factories ?
>>
>>2133440
>Meme River
everytime I see that term it reminds me of nurse reno's slayzer rant

What a fag

>>2134141
So the winning strat was supposed to be just him retreating behind the rivers ? What are you supposed to do that after that if the enemy now has everything beyond the river occupied and entrenched ?
>>
>>2132526
>based on Pop Demand Mod
yikes. only hfm/hpm for me

I'm working on a Total Conversion based on the CK2 Middle Mars mod. Almost playable I just need to re-do the States and then add some more decisions and events and testing.

Otherwise the LotR mod is cool but still being worked on.

Drop the "alt"
>>
>>2135540
flavourful
no meme larping we wuzzing
constant updates
>>
>>2135970
this and based on HFM
>>
>>2135992
Is there any real difference to basing a mod on HFM over HPM? IIRC HFM is just HPM with a lot more flavor which means a lot more events and decisions that have to be removed/edited when making a total overhaul mod. Might as well just save the effort of changing all that and start with HPM instead.
>>
>>2135970
So GFM.
>>
>>2136355
gfm isnt alt his though and the historical flavor mods all have larp shit in them anyways
>>
>>2136332
yeah its just more flavour hpm
>>
>>2136332
yeah its just hpm with reddit bloat
>>
>>2131089
Has anybody played this one?
