>Player Led Peace Conferences
Effectively mandatory for all playthroughs where scripted peaces aren’t a factor. Puts (you) in total control of the peace proceedings so post-war Europe/Asia looks pretty.

Gives the player a togglable menu to change party popularity, give buildings, transfer states and annex, etc. Great for getting yourself/an AI country out of trouble, or fixing bordergore.

Swaps the stock AI package for one that is much more aggressive, and gives them in-game stat buffs. Best for people who think base HOI4 is too easy. Not compatible with mods that also change the AI/unit types.

>Industrial Expansion
Adds 5 new building types to refine steel, aluminum, tungsten, chromium and coal. Adds a new infrastructure type of the same name as the mod, adding building slots the more IE is built.

MG talked about it during the stream as well, he practiced for a completely different strategy.

Also it's not really cope as it was still their fault for not sticking to the plan.

When asked why he went Germany, despite having 0 practice on it, he just said "For fun."

>Muh 0 practice
That's wrong. He's made several videos on Germany. Even if we assume for the sake of argument that he only bullshitted it for narrative reasons since that's his shtick, it's literally impossible for him to not at least have some understanding of Germany since he must've spent several hours on the tag just getting footage for his videos. Guy should've known better but just refused to learn.

How? The UK can't make divisions, edit or create new templates.
They're handicapped in several ways that don't go away after the 1EW and if they lost like they did in the match then UK would have become a puppet of the EU.
Atleast Poland can do something and has a decent economy.
>>
>>2434987
With Poland you are kind of building for Russia as Russia ends up with Eastern Poland. With the EU path everyone gets annexed or becomes a puppet of Germany anyway.
The national spirit for England can be removed, worst case via editing the save game.
My point is that a country outside of Poland could have been better. They would have lost regardless though.

they are generally portrayed positively in their own focuses, you're there to stop La Raza and Attomwaffen and later you get into a fight with the Federal Government after they carpet bomb Atlanta to ruin

after you unify Florida a rogue Attomwaffen militant assassinates Guterres and Amira Mohammed is appointed interim General-Secretary, from then on you have to manage the balance of power between the Doves and the Eagles: prioritizing civilian initiatives and administration will drag you towards the Doves prioritizing the UN Army will give more power to the Eagles
Eagles are the memeir faction, you have a neocon, two unelected technocrats and peacekeeper stratocracy
the Doves are have a progressive, two neolibs and a True Globalist(I'm assuming this guy is the Dove world conquest route)

I haven't played the mod but I feel like it's not what I want to see. They should have played up the dramatic aspect to draw comparisons between how us looks down and mutilates third world countries and how un starts to treat them the same way.

Interesting. Apparently there is some bad blood between this and the previous roster. Segl is completely right to be mad in this case. No one on this roster was as good as him in terms of micro or macro, and yet they, some of them, at least, shit talked him and/or the other players in the previous roster. I wonder if this bad blood is the reason the actual pro players didn't return.

>Apparently there is some bad blood between this and the previous roster.
Segl says so in the first 30 seconds.
Some of the people on the 2nd roster were criticizing the 1st roster for not building air or defending ports, then the 2nd roster proceeded to make obvious fuck ups just the same.
>>
>>2435706
>Also isn't BLM more of a RR or the commie Black Panthers thing

Second roster was arguably worse so them talking shit before is just asking for ridicule.
>>
>>2435707
I just don't get why the 2nd roster neither put their fleets in the Baltic not did they guard the ports there. They even left fucking Kaliningrad open.
You don't have to focus on navy but at least put your starting navy there to not get naval invaded.

Literally just Otto putting his starting navy on patrol could've cockblocked the naval invasion that raped him or at least given Grisha's forces a bloody lip as they landed there. It'd be something at least. If you listed to Otto's stream you can also hear them talk about obvious things like guarding ports and then fucking nothing happened.

True but I'm more saying that even the most minimal safety measures could've greatly imporved the situation. Just getting caught off guard like a bum having the navy out there practicing would've been a major improvement because at least those attrited 20% org ships would've fired a few shots at the landing forces.

I personally think Otto should've been more humble, admitted before the match that he wouldn't be a good player, and just joined another streamer to provide color commentary or doing his own. Him being a lore nerd could've provided some interesting in-universe perspective on events. Instead he talked big, stepped up to a challenge that was completely out of his league and now he's going to have to deal with the ridicule for a long time.

Otto isn't a big guy, but he's sure dug himself a big hole in the ground early into his youtube venture.
In a couple short years he has pretty much earned lolcow status in the community.
He soiled good will with the TFR team on purpose because he's a lazy schmuck.
He gets casted TWICE into a game he has little experience in and doesn't reject the role. He expects to get carried and now the guys who were on his team probably won't play with him again.
He built an audience of detractors out of people who didn't harbor any ill-will with him before hand.
The breakdown he had after losing to Grisha just cemented him as a charlatan.
HOI4 Jschlatt pretends to have dad energy while he burns all his bridges before they could be built.

I'm not not a comp player so don't quote me, but in my experience in TFR, you can't really use the meatwall inf + armored spearhead blitzkrieg larp like you can in vanilla (indeed it's meta in vanilla) in TFR. Mech and tanks cut through infantry like butter which means you really need every division to be mechanized. I guess you could make a pile of mechanized and still concentrate your tanks in a few divisions; I prefer to spread my tanks through every division because that makes them beat any pure mech division (ie most of them).

>>
>>2435813
There are niche scenarios like guarding Murmansk or the Caucasus where infantry divisions are more viable. However he built infantry divisions against Russian divisions that had more SPGs in them than IFVs.
The AI is bad enough that you can probably still get away with putting line infantry on the frontline if you have decent enough CAS but against players it is suicide.
>>
>>2435803
You can literally do the scientifally feasible.
>>
>>2435759
Good summary. All just a bunch of unforced errors really. Like I said if he'd just been a little humble, avoided streaming (especially drunk), avoided political drama and quit the TFR team while maintaining ties with the team all would be well. But like you said he's become a lolcow. It's not terminal, he can turn that around, but I think his ego is too big.

>>
>>2435941
In MP you do need dedicated templates but I can't be assed with that in SP. I just have
>Line
>Marine
>Airborne
I don't bother with a port garrison template because if I don't need to do it (like I've sunk their navy or they don't have one) then I want to be able to send those troops to the front instead of having them sit around.

>The Satanic Temple's HQ is in Massachusetts.
If the American Iron Front ever gets content they'd make a great path, their wholesome chungus reddit satanism would fit right in there. For fun factor you could also include a hidden path where they become genuine satanists doing sacrifices, defiling churches, and engaging in general debachery and sadism, but set them apart from O9A by not making them Nazis.

Maybe they thought Putin would invade in 2022 like in OTL.
>>

That implies they've never played the mod or they'd know he fucking dies right before the invasion is supposed to happen.
>>
>>2435989
That was unironically the case though. Some players in the 1st roster were genuinely worried about the SMO focus and thought Putin could invade early.

Schizo theory:
Nayf, Dankus and/or Segl were going to return for the 2nd game, but Otto and/or some other players on the 2nd team shit talked them, so they quitted in protest. To me, that explains why Otto was suddenly moved from Ukraine to Germany, and MG's build had to change last minute. And I bet my fucking ass, if that were to happen, they would be like
>we don't need them
>at least we know the mod
>we outnumber Grisha, no way he can micro 4 fronts at once with air this time
Being all smug ass and shit, despite throwing most of their test build into the trash.
>>
When was the last time From Men To Wolves dropped a teaser? Hope the mod isn't dead, leans a little too much into schizo territory imqho (all though I guess with the scenario that's a given). But I think it still looks fun and really want to play it.

>"GUYS THIS MEANS IT IS FAKE XDDD"

So I can just claim the holobunga was only 1 million people and then since the estimates have such a wide range it never happened in the first place?
I am so happy this nigger got mogged twice by Grisha.

>He killed a lot of people to industrialize the union
Lmao the former Russian Empire was already industrialized. Had the Tsar lived it would have continued to industrialize to OTL WW2 levels anyway since the war demanded it.

Can I just take a sidenote to say how this guy is probably pro-Ukraine IRL as all leftcucks seem to be, but he's literally making excuses for the Holodomor?

Dude unironically sounds like a betacuck version of Socialism4All now that I think about it. If you're gonna defend Stalin at least do it in a well-spoken manner with a smooth voice.

Number of people who died in the camps was about 250k, largely from typhus (ironically enough), and in the final stage of the war, from starvation due to utterly destroyed and bombed out supply lines
Number of people put to death in homicidal gas chambers using delousing agents was zero, didn't happen
Hope this helps

That's not schizo at all. Segl at least complained about the shit talking several times and we know there are some big egos involved. I don't remember when the rosters were originally announced and this may contradict you slightly and have offered them more prep time but the timeline you present is very plausible.
>>
>>2436054
I really do hate that argument so much. Stalin definitely did incredible leaps and bounds to FURTHER industrialize the nation that much and that fast but people genuinely act like the Russian Empire under Nicholas was a fucking Monty Python sketch where the largest economic factor were mudpies. The Great War and the Russian Civil War, along with all the other garnets on the cloak of war such as famine, did far more to "reset" Russian industrial progression then any of the Tsar's minister's flailing. Stalin had to not only rebuild after those wars he had to make up for the lost time spent fighting them. The conversation becomes particularly awful when you realise the person making the point that "The Empire was a feudal backwater with no industry" has no idea who Witte, Stolypin or Alexander III are.

A guy who I know from another project is a FMTW dev and he screenshared a build for me a couple weeks ago. What I saw looked solid in that nations on the map were filled out and portraits + natspirits were present. They are trying to finish a Central Asia Warlord demo. I would expect it and Judgment Day to launch sometime this year, if they can't meet that goal and 2027 hits idk if it'll ever come out.

The map was cool except for India which looked like it was covered in Tumors (if i remember right it was like a bunch of British owned bits of India joined in a confederation around pakistan and North-West India but because there were like 16 of them it looked butt ugly) Idk if they've teased that or not.

Here's the Italian player on the roster. We don't know who is the original Italian player who Grisha mandated was, but my schizo theory is that it was going to be Segl, mostly because of how salty he was in the video. Also funny that Grisha picked MG for Poland, because he was the only one who was kind of competent in th 1EW.
I would also take this post with a pinch of salt, because it looks like the EU team gave up way too many concessions to Grisha for this to be a fair negotiate as both sides had put it before the game. That or they are not only shit at playing the game, they are also completely retarded in diplomacy as well.

He also sounded very authoritative about the decision of not allowing the French player returning. Yes, the French player was bad, but I doubt he's one of the organizers of the event, so big ego for context.

Every single nu-Paradox Game hit some inflection point where the game became ruined and bloated by an unending stream of retarded DLC
Unironically skip the DLC and just learn the base game and then later decide to add specific DLC on an à la carte basis, judiciously
Bad advice for a new player

There was a Tiberium timeline one but I don't think it really went anywhere. Another Tiberium one ended up being dead in the water. A dev colleague of mine wanted to make a Red Alert one, but he joined TFR instead. Which to be fair is the closest we have to a Red Alert mod right now so he's fulfilling his dreams that way.

That's the low estimate. It's unironically worse than the holobunga since the chosen people had several of the most powerful armies in the world fighting for them.
Who was fighting for all these girls? The very authorities that were supposed to protect them did too little, outright ignored it, covered it up or in the worst cases actively participated.
I read one case and I don't need to read beyond that. Genuinely disturbed me how that one girl was failed by the authorities on every single occasion. It was just one of the countless cases. Can't imagine how terrible it must be to go through that. Fiction writers struggle to come up with comparable horrors.
The death penalty for everyone guilty in these cases is not enough.

Cmon man be for real. It's like tiny fringe parts of Maine and NH that are anywhere close to PF. The Republicans in New England aren't secretly fascists they are Republican because they are business owner and want their taxes slashed. The mayor of Boston is Michelle Wu. They're all economically republican and socially dem, this is not the PF's base. Saying NE isn't all republican because of gerrymandering is pure cope.
