i hate monica>just enact these clearly tyrannical feminist policies in every playthrough>in the middle of a depression by a vehement nationalist man since university who promised to protect national valuesWhy couldn't you pick a wife or not marry at all in the prologue, she seems fit only for a red youth play through and just shoehorned into other scenarios. why can't i fire ministers while at it? I want Symon to run education, interior and the econ at once, probably leave the country to him as an appointed successor if possible.Imagine amassing a harem of women from every neighbor as a part of diplomacy. Housebreaking the queen with 2 kids seems like a great reward for the player desu. Haven't played the expansion yet, can you go full absolutist? monarchs are pussies in this game, the queen shot my plane down so i shot hers to call on to not nato which i joined and lespia and agnolia to destroy the rum subhumans with ease but noo, she just bitched out at the not UN
>>2440001Why did her reforms cost so much money? Was Ciara stuffing some away or did Gus and Rusty have some kind of a ponzi scheme going on? We're in the middle of a goddamn recession!
>>2440001In my first playthrough of Rizia i created a Theocracy with myself as Holyking/Pope and failed an invasion. Though Rizia is probably alot more complicated then Sordland its also more fun
Originally you were supposed to be able to cheat on her with the Central Bank chairwoman. And the Rumburg war wasn't supposed to be this half assed either. The game is full of unfinished and cut content because lasy ass devs who take multi year siestas.
>>2440001Yes, you can go absolutist as Rizia. And you get a non-gimped chudwife option. As for Monica, I divorce that wretched whore in every run. Sorry bitch, too busy oppressing Bluds. DECLINED. A MORGNA WES CORE!
I fucked it up big time and an hero'd :(Rizzia next I guess
>>2440237How did you find any of this out?
>>2440001It really does make zero sense that you can be an open member of a fascist organization like the Young Sords and then your libtard wife acts surprised that you act like a chud for some reason lol.
>>2440291It's a unity game, not hard to datamine.
>>2440237>Originally you were supposed to be able to cheat on her with the Central Bank chairwomanthat bitch has like one scene right? definitely reeks of cut content>>2440274>I divorce that wretched whore in every runskill issue. just tell her you're going to do her retarded shit in private and then actually do none of it. then when she asks for an explanation for why you didn't do it tell her the time just wasn't right. she totally buys it like the idiot she is, it's kino honestly.>>2440288wait how do you get this ending, I didn't know you could an hero
>>2441050you have to lose the war, you get the führerbunker endingiirc you can either give Monica and Deana cyanide pills and die with them in bunker or lock them inside and go back to the presidential palace with Iosef, he gives you his service pistol and goes out like a hero gunning down a whole squad of rummies and suicide bombing into another, you can do the same and go out shooting, calmly sit in the presidential office adjust your tie and blow your brains out or you surrender like a bitch and get tortured and killed by Queen Beatricealso if you funded the Young Sords you can call Valken and he'll pull a Steiner(they all get massacred)honestly it's way more depressing than the nuclear war ending
>>2440001This is why the dlc is far superior to the base game. Much better choices
>>2440234is theocracy cool or ultra larpy? rizia's religion is pretty libtard so it seemed silly to me to try to become the theocrat of episcopalianism basically
>>2441050>definitely reeks of cut contentthe biggest dead giveaway is that she's hot though that would mean there was cut content for "i can fix her"-core cheating with ciara too
>>2441070There should be a schzio ending where you can choose to rape Beatrice in the surrender wagon after reminding her who her suzerain is.
>>2441356it can be fairly fun, even though you can be very reformist with it you can essentially ban/oppress most other religions if you go full in with wruhecism, plus if you go all the way with Sal i think he will claim you are part of some divine plan.
One of the issues with Sordland, and the wider Suzerain lore, is that you are playing as Turkey but a utterly butchered version of it with other nation's cultures and histories mushed in. You cannot larp as House of Cards because you live in a banana republic and you cannot larp as literally Hitler without it feeling weird and disjointed in parts. No matter what rp you run with, it always comes back to Turkey. I also want an option to execute Soll in the name of Luderin, monarchy larping would also be cool even if you are a Lord Protector with some retarded kid as a figure head.>>2440001Monica is genuinely, unironically, a awful wife and really shitty feminist. She doesn't care about Bl*d women getting slapped and she seems to really just want the movement to be about her instead of the actual strong women like Not!Thatcher in the USP. That whole plot is shitty to be honest as about half the most powerful characters in game are women and the best one is a genocidal girlboss who's nukemaxxing. Also it is kind of fucked how you can only get custody of Deana in the emergency run with Hawker still alive, seems like you should be able to force that issue in Dictator or even in Emergency with Hawker LongKnived.>>2440237>>2441360It would have been great to be a Berlusconi Rayne, I choose Ciara because I can fix her lesbianism with law degree penis.
>>2441822>can kill Peter but not MonicaBut not being able to get custody over your daughter is the most bullshit thing in this entire game. Given all of the things he can and is willing to do I should be able to send my nigga Karl to get her back by any means necessary.
>>2441837Not just kill but submerge into a vat of acid along with his girlfriend really arresting Monica and pretending she had a mental breakdown whilst committing her to a private asylum is merciful in comparison.
>>2441070>honestly it's way more depressing than the nuclear war endingThe first time I played and I lost the war I was legit depressed because of how fucking evil Rumburg is.>uses chemical weapons on your civilians>heh,, nothin personnel kid
>>2442190>uses chemical weapons on your civiliansBased on Rumburg, Whelen and Rizia, if you are not doing this then you are simply behind the times.
Sordland should have really got that war game that Rizia got. Also are they developing a DLC or what?
>>2442384The running rumour is that they are making a commie dlc for Galmland. It could be good but I'm guessing the devs will either fellate the ideology as they sort of do to Cortana and Valgsland or act as though social democracy is the only way forward and that Stalin's success was a fluke. Allegedly we might also be playing a woman. Personally I hope with the dlc they set up a quicker system of setting past choices because I don't like playing Rizia without my own set Sordland history but between updates and the time needed its burdensome. Something like setting Sordland to go broke and get invaded versus having them be rich and neutral or what alliance they join. Like the hoi4 country path gamerule.
who has the more annoying and retarded family: Romus or Anton?
>>2442494>AntonAwful wife, moronic son, good daughter>RomusDead wife, based mom, libtard daughterI think Anton takes this one, though Romus did fuck up by not breeding Beatrice's sister more.
Did they ever add to an absolutist Rizian playthrough regarding the military? I know religion is important but I don't remember the Azaros(?) going anywhere other then the marriage. It would be cool to form a Clerical Fascist state in Rizia, rather then just "King do what King do". Perhaps show the difference between the old conservatives and the new Rizian young men like Rico and his org.
>>2442552There should have been a path where you democratize only for the fascists to win the elections
>>2442563I still have not done a reformer run. That is so silly when I can sign whatever law I want. Pollution? Ended. Foreigners? Out. RIZIAN workers? Protected. The faith? Enshrined. I'm usually not even tyrannical when it comes to Manus and the liberals. Pales does usually get glassed though.
>mmphhhmmrmmphmYour response?
>>2444313uhm.. you're going to share that, RIGHT?
>>2444313most kino moment by farhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vZDT1vaCUqE
>>2440001Yeah she needs to be beaten with a cane.
I quite enjoyed the ground warfare aspect of Rizia.>>2440234>failed an invasionMake sure to use your marines and support land with your ships.
I think Rizia should be richer then it feels, I know that might make choices too easy but the whole point of the Kingdom is that money is the one thing they have no problem with.>>2444745I liked how you can use different strategies and your investment into the different sides of your militaries matters. I remember focusing navy and it was fun to blockade them.
What is best for a Mussolini Rayne? Dictator or Emergency where you never end it and you kill the Old Guard judge?
>>2445146Dictator where you get impeached and join NFP
>>2445149How does that work? Do you lose power or are you simply kicked out of the party as President? Also would Kibenar really just accept being second fiddle? He is too much of a fox for that.
>>2445150Kibener becomes the president and you become his VP. It's the most based option since he institutes racial laws and you get rid of sollists once and for all. >BUT I DONT WANT TO LOSE POWER REEEEEAny true leader must prioritise country's wellbeing over petty ambitions.
>>2445156That is fair and honestly I think Kibenar would be a very good leader. I'm not sure the family situation of Rayne though in this supposed NFP run, especially since Deana's custody is locked behind leaving Hawker alive for some reason. Do you have to avoid the war to get this ending because I just don't see the USP impeaching you if you won it.
>>2445164>I'm not sure the family situation of Rayne though in this supposed NFP runI never got divorce no matter what I did on any of my runs because I picked the correct dialogue options so I'm not familiar with this storyline. >Do you have to avoid the war to get this ending because I just don't see the USP impeaching you if you won it.Obviously. You also need to not form SSP since it also locks you out of impeachment
>>2446032I'm not sure about that then, it seems like the better larp is emergency, ban the reds, make the deal with the Young Sords to kill the Old Guard, legalize guns for the death squads and send the military to crush the bluds with a successful solo Rumburg war to top it off. This and the dictator capitalist ATO Rayne rank top for me.
>>2446032>I never got divorce no matter what I did on any of my runsFunny, I got the divorce every single time despite my best efforts. I never figured out how to trigger the lesser bill.
>>2446506Rumburg is based and allying with them is the best option and USP is gay and I hate everyone there. No matter what you do on emergency you could never top the NFP presidency which will always be the most positive option since you aren't stuck with the baggage of leading a republican third world socialist party filled with feminists and can rehabilitate the legacy of Luderin and maybe restore the monarchy in the future. >>2447443Just don't let her speak and say that your hands were tied and promise to work with her and then reject her bill and when she's mad at you say that it wasn't good enough and then reject the second bill and she will never bring it up again.
>>2447447ah. so my mistake was trying to talk to her and reason with her like a human being. figures.
>>2447447>Rumburg is based and allying with them is the best option and USP is gayJust roll over backwards hand the hostile expansive neighbouring power everything they want so much their bitch queen can't believe how gullible you are in exchange for vague promises she'll leave you alone, and also becoming unelectable is the dumbest strategy I've ever heard. You're willingly becoming Czechoslovakia post Munich only you have options both diplomatic and military to come out swinging to win quite easily before you get into the situation.
>>2440001I really dont understand how the economy works in the base game
>>2447669it changes with every update too. last I played two years ago the devs had hyperfixated on synergy bonuses, so you basically just need to maxx development in one or two regions and one or two industries. don't try to spread out development evenly. and generally build the high speed rail, it mogs the road except in certain edge cases. and don't be a retard and go into massive debt or run massive unspent surpluses for no reason (no clue why some people do this but you will be punished)
I think at this point economy in base is more just pick an ideology and economy model and stick to it to the bitter end based than anything actually economic based.My last playthrough I followed a guide that nationalised Sordlands 2 biggest companies, arrested the Oligarchs, flirted with UNC, raised taxes, Gus quit in disgust while people called me a Malyvenist at the end and got the most ridiculous economy I've ever seen
>>2447629>Just roll over backwards hand the hostile expansive neighbouring power everything they wantAll they ask for is -2 budget and a trade deal which is much cheaper than funding the military. >exchange for vague promises she'll leave you aloneYou become their top supplier of energy so they couldn't go to war with you even if they wanted to since it would devastate them economically and they already achieved all their geopolitical aims. >You're willingly becoming Czechoslovakia post MunichNo you don't retard. >only you have options both diplomatic and military to come out swinging to win quite easily before you get into the situationYou win diplomatically by reconciling with Rumburg
>>2447712I also like inviting the local niggers into my house to fuck my girlfriend on the vague promise they might not rob us later btw
>>2447689Well thats expected if that economy came at the cost of sacrifising healthcare and social services
Something kind of similar releases in about two weeks. But by the looks of it you are trying to prevent the world hegemon from collapsing amid early industrial revolution, French revolution and it's own Protestant reformation
>>2447787Oh neat, I mostly enjoyed Sir Brante, I'll check it out
>>2447775>If I say the n-word those chuds will surely support my wholesome socialist utopia against those evil monarchists
>>2447712fucking cuck mentality. i'd rather shoot myself.
>>2447712Yeah this. Allying them is the good ending, but it requires some understanding of geopolitics. Most players just become useful idiots for globohomo instead.
>>2447787>>2447791the initial playtest was pure kino. surprised it's coming out this early though, hope it's not too rushed. they also did a last minute stopgap kickstarter campaign so they're probably still really hurting for funds
>>2447776>https://www.reddit.com/r/suzerain/comments/1oztkhk/suzerain_31_153_democratic_socialist_guide_the/It didn't all ministries got an increased budget except military which was maintained and workers got just about every rights act they wanted. Granted don't know if it still works I last played before latest update
>>2447775you forgot that you also have to literally pay them muh reparations
>>2447712>You become their top supplier of energy so they couldn't go to war with you even if they wanted to since it would devastate them economically and they already achieved all their geopolitical aims.This completely ignores the fact that as Rizia you can be their biggest supplier and get dropped in 30 seconds just for being diplomatic to the guy holding 1/3 your kingdom hostage even though its no harm to Rumburg
>>2447922You have to completely braindead to sour your relationship with rumburg as rizia. Let me guess, you're the guy who's also mad that you get kicked out of grace after forming third world alliance with wehlen?
>>2447944sorry, not going to be a rumburg goy like you and stay on that sinking ship
>>2447944>You have to completely braindead to sour your relationship with rumburg as riziaYou don't though you get a bigger economy boost from Intermer- however the fuck you spell it than you do sticking to an increasingly fractured widespread BRICs like alliance block as a vassal of your menopausal sister in law where you can be kicked out for drinking tea wrong
>>2447956Seriously become a regional hegemon and energy superpower binding the economies of 4 nations to Port Drazon or mired in civil wars being constantly asked to send a tank brigade to every grand duke whose having peasant issues and taking darling Bea's strapon.
There is literally no outcome where Sordland survives the next decade unless it reconciles with Rumburg. Since the setting had no prior world war, there isn't that much stopping the superpowers from attacking each other, so a nuclear world war is almost inevitable. So Sordland is nuked if it joins either of them. Otherwise, if Sordland stays neutral but beats Rumburg in a war or gets it sanctioned by the AN, it will still get nuked by Rumburg the moment they get their shit together and come for revenge or when the AN inevitably stops giving a shit about this issue.
>>2447964Thats why you build a moon colony after the war. Rumburg cant reach you and you can threaten to start dropping space rocks on their heads if they misbehave
>>2447964Both alliance blocks seem pretty set on GRACE not getting nukes which is presumably why everyone and their mother immediately voted for sanctions so ruinous the economy almost collapses can't see them mellowing on that going forward
>>2447964Nah in my Rizian playthrough a God-Emperor ascends who's also an economic genius and Napoleon reborn.Rumberg has much more to worry about.
So I just got the Rizia DLC. I hit chapter 2 and realized that not only can I not peacefully annex Pales because I was rude to their president fifteen years ago, but that in order to get half the oilfield in arbitration, I need to splurge on bribing governments around the world. I haven't built a single military building yet. I'd have married my daughter off to the guy like a broodmare if I had a choice. Do I have to read a guide to navigate this circus? I love the idea of these games very much, but it seems like one of those games that really wants you to play it one highly certain way. Not going to be entertaining building a prosperous nation with a not-monoculture government type when I'm learning to hit a combination of conversation choices that look like a Mortal Kombat 1 finishing move. pic unrelated
>>2447964>implying R*mburg would survive the next decadeI could easily see a Sordish victory leading to the fall of Queen Beatrice and a power struggle that sucks up all of Rumburg's energy. Especially if all of its neighbours have a vested interest in seeing Rumburg caught up in internal issues forever.Maybe even becoming a failed state or suffering a civil war if it gets too bad.
Neither the crazy old man or ice queen bitch of Morelia are anywhere near as bad as Lespia or ATO. For fuck's sake they should have made them at least a bit likable. Lespians will fuck you over at every opportunity in both campaigns and joining ATO literally makes you a cuck. Meanwhile old man gives you ships, ports, trade, freshly mined Lespian salt and military support all in exchange for punishing the Agnolian retard trying to strongarm his much stronger and only ally, or for fucking over Lespia. I mean fucking hele, Homo-Taliban are better and more useful allies.
>>2448031There should be more room for error in Rizia, particularly economy-wise (most annoying part of Sordland imo), compared to base game.>realized that not only can I not peacefully annex Pales because I was rude to their president fifteen years agoI doubt it's locking you out entirely due to that, though you really shouldn't have been mean to Chadxel if you wanted to play nice with Pales.>I'd have married my daughter off to the guy like a broodmare if I had a choiceIt's imminently doable, I managed it on my first try. Felt good keeping the family together and gaslighting my libtard beat-looking ass daughter, way easier than Monica was that's for sure.
Fresh to the game. Did I fuck up investing into Berger territory?
>>2440001If you just tell her you'll help her with her reforms but that you can't use abuse your state power she'll be happy with you. Ie bring it to a vote and then let the senate decide and they literally always say no unless you fully fund education AND reform and remove nationalist propaganda from the education system. Just support your wife in the nicest way possible and then when she fails tell her she belongs in the kitchen and there's nothing you can do and she says you're the best husband ever. It only costs you that fag curtis' support which only matters igf you're reforming the constitution.
>>2447964>a nuclear world war is almost inevitable.Uh, no?>if Sordland stays neutral but beats Rumburg in a war or gets it sanctioned by the AN, it will still get nuked by Rumburg the moment they get their shit together and come for revengeSo what you're telling me is that we need a genocide.
>>2448175see >>2441489
>>2441822I like how everyone who plays this will see Sordland as turkeyI bet it's the mustache
>>2447964I wouldn't go that far but Rumburg is the only country who has a chance of standing against globohomo and by removing them you leave the world to be divided by "I can't believe it's not NATO" and "I can't believe it's not USSR" which is a terrible world to live in. Sub 100 IQ retards see that you can form your faction or defeat rumburg in a war and assume that's the best option because it makes them feel good, completely ignorant to the fact that you just created a much weaker and shittier Rumburg 2.0 where instead of politically aligned monarchies you have third world dictators who hate eachothers guts.The best option for Sordland is to become a senior partner to Rumburg like Lespia is to nato or valgsland is to ussr and split the world together but that would require actual thinking and coming to terms with geopolitical realities instead and there's no feelsgood larp involved
>>2448256>but that would require actual thinking and coming to terms with geopolitical realitiesOr a different game where the big bad isn't rumberg. You're a pseudointellectual.
>>2448256You can have a conversation with Alphonso about this, although he says Rumburg is a bit too close to Arcasia to act as a stabilising third power globally. But I agree being the Lespia of Grace is the best outcome you can achieve economically. Anything else you do, you become either the third guy in some other alliance or you ally only with poverty nations. With the Rums, you have a huge market that is mostly unavailable to both Lespia and Valgsland. In the Rizia campaign, at one point Alvarez begs you to speak up to Rumburg so they can get into an arrangement like Sordland can, so it's definitely a desirable deal.
>>2448148going agriculturemaxx and Bergiamaxx is a strong synergy, just keep a lid on the bl*ds in one way or another
>>2448212It’s everything. Even the religious divide is more like Islam than Christianity.
>>2448409I triggered debt crisis for staying in the negative for too long and about to take even more debt by Total Femoid Rights. Can I still recover or is it gg? Bludroaches just took the dam
>Sordland and RumburgHonestly I am a massive fan of GRACE as a concept due to the sheer kino of a personal nato/warsaw pact between monarchs against liberals and commies but I don't really see a good reason for Sordland to be part of it. From a Rizian perspective I am a Beatrice cunt kisser till I die but Rumburg and Sordland are just incompatible imo. They hated each other even when they were both monarchies and they are really each other's natural enemies based on geography and history. Maybe if you had an option to fully chud out as a Young Sord Rayne and privately tell her you are working on restoring the monarchy then the pieces would fall into place for a harmonious relationship against shared ideological enemies and membership into GRACE but that would require an additional path/content made for a dictator Rayne that I doubt the devs (lame) will ever do. There is definite possibility for a very cool story there but until that happens then Sordland is better off either forming an alliance with their local retards to deter Rumburg or joining one of the superpower blocs. An actual war is bad just from the amount of instability that will add into Sordland's already instable mix. Imagine the Rummish equivalent of the BFF. I do like Rumburg personally though, even if I do think the devs have done the British-Russian mix poorly.
>>2440288>Failing the warRetard.>>2441050You have to lose the war like a retard aka listening to a single word of Vulken.
>>2447787Sir Brante broke me in a lot of its parts. Like that where your mother nearly has a breakdown unless you unite the family and embrace your sister, your younger brother and yourself become something like Jesus in the religious playthrough, that aristocrat lady turning into an ayyy lmao if you don't slap some sense into her, and other stuff which really depressed me, especially with the great music in the background.I hope this one doesn't ruin me.
>>2448957>not solo winning the war and taking agnolia and whelen's war spoils for yourselfVulken is based, just don't mess up the economy and you are golden.
>>2448960>not having a single allyRetard.
>>2448961Cry about it liberal, my map of Sordland is bigger then yours. Dome is mine and agfag martin can seethe.
>buddy up with Agnolia and the based Total Blud Death funny guy>increase funding to military & keep conscription for reserve>modernize army>integrate the bludistan without kicking off a revolt>economy mixed but stable and growing>UN puts gorillion sanctions on Rumburg>pick strategy 1, 2, 3 or 4>click Continue>"lol u lose"thats it? this is the game? no wartime stuff? you click a button and game ends with "you win" or "you lose"?
>>2449188It's gay and retarded, especially since you did a lot of other stuff right, but if you are going to keep conscription then you should also expand the military rather then modernize it. If I recall correctly you can win with a mixed military system but you need a very strong economy. Rizia has an actual war system which is much better in my view.
>>2449194I am genuinely feeling deeply disappointed, like the entire course of game decisions are hyped up as important with long-lasting consequences reminded at every moment but none of it is actually delivered. Game just ends.
>>2448031This is a guide game. there's no strategy or logic to anything. You just read what the guide tells you to do.
>>2449194The gayest outcome I had was experimenting with expanded military with full modernization, but I gave Gendarmerie to the interior since I heard that giving gun rights would have militias fulfill the same niche. This was totally wrong and I lost. I then confirmed it was the Gendarmerie through save editing so the game thought I had it and magically all the battles went my way.I also find it unfortunate that the game punishes good planning by only allowing one ultra synergy. If you qualify for multiple it goes down a priority list.
>>2449188It's actually a hoi4 visual novel mod in disguise including their defining feature of arbitrary fail states. It doesn't matter what the numbers for the economy say, if you go the dictator path you HAVE to join vagsland marxist OR go full solist with no in between or you just hit a lose screen. if you don't do either of those in dictator mode you caqn also appease Rumberg at every opportunity and then surrender the backwaters in the west but I suspect Lucian and not Tulsi Gabbard coup you if you do that, though I haven't tried it out yet.The Rizia DLC has great combat but even if you roll palehhhs over and kill 5+ tanks with just infantry per turn the entire international community sanctions you which gives you -20 income by the end and kills your nation no matter what. I'm not sure what the point of that is but I'm sure if you mathed it out you could possibly win it with Rumbergs' helpies.None of the routes are documented so figuring what redditors missed IS the fun game.
>>2449188This is what I'm going through, very arbitrary lose cases. I'm playing Rizia, I kissed that Turkish carpet salesman's ass all game and I have to make a trade deal with him, and no matter what I do he just walks out. I love the idea of this game, but it assumes I have an absolutely staggering amount of free time. My weekends are short and I know I wasted this playthrough. Does anybody know what redditor tier hand wringing horseshit I have to do to make this happen?
>>2449292That's why I >RiziaDLC.Army_Unit>RiziaDLC.Resources>RiziaDLC.Resources_Military
>>2449292That's a lot of text but I use cheat engine for all my games.
>>2448461you're almost certainly fucked yeah, just a question of which flavor of fucked. the bad endings are some of the most kino though so you should play all the way through.>Total Femoid Rightsthe fact that it costs budget at a critical juncture economy-wise is the funniest shit, had to be added in by some crypto chud dev
>>2449292>you caqn also appease Rumberg at every opportunity and then surrender the backwaters in the west but I suspect Lucian and not Tulsi Gabbard coup you if you do that, though I haven't tried it out yet.If you get an ultimatum then you haven't appeased them.
>>2449298>https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3434031783I'd presume you can just do ctrl+f do the Wehlen stuff and ignore the rest but this game links the weirdest variables that can fuck up if you do something slighly different so not fully sure. The general theory is kiss his ass and have a strong enough military to force his hand, there's probably a way to be a total dick and have overwhelming force as well.
>>2449714You can't appease them as a dictator doe
>>2449732Yes you can. Your political system doesn't matter, only how you act towards them and your choice of allies (making allies with wehlen or agnolia blocks reconcilliation for obvious reasons). I even joined NATO and still got reconcilliation, I think joining USSR also works but I haven't checked.
>>2449737>(making allies with wehlen or agnolia blocks reconcilliation for obvious reasons)Why the fuck doesn't david whatshisface tell us this.What a useless fuckass traitor of an advisor. I was in a call with my buddy talking about your post and he was like "oh yeah dude of course he would tell you to fuck your relations up with rumberg and wouldn't even tell you it's an option, he's an anti monarchist."
>>2449738David and his father are retarded idealist Republicans, his father died in prison because he was too trusting to build a country but was political enough to tear one down. Genuinely annoyed that you have to be polite to him even if you are a Young Sord. Though it is unfair, an argument can be made that his father caused the civil war in Sordland by destroying the monarchy rather then reforming it to be constitutional. No King equals no system equals Commie and Fascist generals ready to build their own. If the Democrats can get rid of the Monarchy then the military can get rid of the Democracy.
pretty much all the sordland advisors are trash except for symon and karl
>>2449718So I fucked with this for hours and I think I've found some kind of base logic behind it. The Wehlen trade deal has 1) the trade deal scale between positives and negatives, 2) the behind the scenes variable for how much their president likes you, AND 3) a separate leverage variable that influences but is not the same as the scale tipping in #1. I fired off pharmaceutical industry before the meeting, then asked why I would want his opioids, and my scale was more favorable, but what was extremely interesting was that I moved the scale lower than I had it at before and he went from marching out to asking for Rico. Fuckin' wonky programming.
>>2449860Which is why you need to switch to NFP. Imagine what their ministers would be like
>>2449860Paskal is pretty good at his job he's even open to privatisation long run his reforms probably have the biggest positive effect, and Gus isn't terrible his Gruni investment is pretty good for synergy bonus (also he's great at investment tips), I'll even say Nia is pretty good at running the justice department unless you're trying to subvert democracy.
Really disappointed that the game is only 11 turns long. It felt like I just finished the prologue when suddenly, the rug is pulled from under my feet with how the game ends.Would refund if I could
>>2447669>economy>workslmao, it was k*ynesian last time i checked but they might have updated it
>>2448995>Take over Agnolia and Whelen claims>Now has two new enemies added to Ramburg>This is a apparently winClassic. Very fitting that a guy crying about "muh libruls" knows jackshit about geopolitics.
>>2449188>increase funding to military & keep conscription for reserveThere. That's your problems, you fucking retard.God, can't stand retarded faggots like you going like a spaz moron all over the place then bitching why "X didn't work" like bitches in heat.If you're going to modernize the fucking military, then modernize the air force and abolish conscription, retard.Agnolia as ally is enough and trust them that they will take Dome by themselves, especially if you have the H1 highway, then do the pincer attack of your bald minister.It's easy as hell and you still fucked it up.
>>2449966Calm down rajeesh and take a sip of your cow piss. Unlike in whatever shithole conflicts your third world country is known for where bunch of shitskin retards shoot at one another for couple of days, in the civilized world (white countries, not your shithole), history has shown again and again that wars are won by those who had the equipment and the reservesFor anyone not a screeching retarded subhuman, its perfectly reasonable course of action to have a well-funded big army when sharing a border with a huge hostile country who also has a big army
>>2447787Played through the demo and it looks interesting. can't wait for it to release.
>>2449974Nayrt but nigga, that's just how the game mechanics work. Stop seething about imaginary jeets and take it up with Torpor Games.
I feel like you should get to...pick your cabinet at least. Playing Rayne as anything other than some mildly kleptocratic oligarch just doesnt feel right. Put aside the fact that you'll just get shot for going full commie, it doesnt even make sense that youd have a cabinet full of capitalists in the first place given, presumably YOU picked them.
>>2450101I'm most bothered by the inability to pick my starting party.
>>2449974>>2449974>Calm down rajeesh and take a sip of your cow piss.>Unlike in whatever shithole conflicts your third world country is known for where bunch of shitskin retards shoot at one another for couple of days, in the civilized world (white countries, not your shithole), history has shown again and again that wars are won by those who had the equipment and the reserves>For anyone not a screeching retarded subhuman, its perfectly reasonable course of action to have a well-funded big army when sharing a border with a huge hostile country who also has a big armyYou're one fucking retard to play the game wrong like the retard you are, get called out for that fact, and then have a meltdown over poojeets out of ganges shit river out of nowhere.There's no shame in using a guide if you're this much of a shitter.
>>2450155Your parents definitely could've used a DIY abortion guide to save themselves the trouble of raising autistic manchild like you who has screaming meltdown when someone critiques his faggot visual novel. Now continue your little autism meltie, its funny to me
>>2450293>LOOK HOW ANGRY YOU ARETake a breath, my guy
>>2450317>does exactly as I order him togood doggy
>>2450319Nayrt, faggot.Not having a melty at all, you're just being a sperg who randomly rants about Indians because a VN isn't exactly how you want it.
>>2450409what a well trained obedient doggy you are
>>2450101>I feel like you should get to...pick your cabinet at leastIt kind of makes sense you don't have too much input on that its a broad coalition cobbled together of Solists and social reformers who only banded together to take down Alphonso they'd probably already been promised their jobs during that one slide in the prologue where you decide how you want to ask him to step down.
>>2450419Is this some sort of fetish?
>>2450430should have an option to purge them if going full commie though.
>>2450431You sound raped
>>2450101You should have the ability to "remove" them through the game but lore-wise you don't have a choice on cabinet. The deep state is pulling strings.
>>2450619You are the deepstate in suzerain in the Sordland campaign bro. peter vectern, lucian, gus manger, karl, and anton rayne are the VERY DEFINITION of the deepstate embezzling money and fucking over the entire country no matter what they do. When I first played through the game I kept trying to assume that nothing was wrong with the country and there was no shadowy cabal out to get everyone because everyone had individual motivations that made sense. Then I made one backdoor deal after another and suddenly the economy was collapsing and I was dunking peter in a vat of acid. Then I had a moment where I said out loud "Ohhhh. I just suicided epstein". EVERYTHING you do is at the expense of everyone else in the Sordland campaign and you are not the most intelligent person to govern. This is in extreme contrast to the dlc where it's basically impossible to lose. You're king and everyone loves you and you make the best decisions for everybody because your family stands to benefit.
DLC announcements have been made - DLC where you play as a journalist in Kyrute, a standalone war game, and Galmland DLChttps://www.suzeraingame.com/the-neutral-lenshttps://www.suzeraingame.com/galmland
>>2450775>Rule Through Collective PowerGovern alongside a committee of comrades, each with their own ambitions, loyalties, and vision for the future. Build consensus, delegate authority, and manage internal rivalries to keep the government united.Sure, I swear I am definitely going to do that.
>>2450775Cool stuff. Not sure I dig the whole "Suzerain but without a country to lead" thing though, and the text at the bottom of the journalist dlc page saying 2026 but not the Galmland one makes me think the latter won't come out this year.
>>2450788hmmm yeah I'm thinking it's purge time
>>2450843It doesn't help that by the looks of it we are getting the lame communists instead of the ones like pic rel who I could actually believe were workers. I won't feel anything when signing the orders.
>>2450293>Your parents definitely could've used a DIY abortion guide to save themselves the trouble of raising autistic manchild like you who has screaming meltdown when someone critiques his faggot visual novel. Now continue your little autism meltie, its funny to me
>woman MCSo will we be nuking Derdia faggots?
In my heart I'm with Hegel, but Sordland is incapable of imitating Valgsland. Its culture is too reactionary and its deepstate too entrenched. It needs an orthodox Malenyevist dictator to crush its deepstate and carry out a Mao-style cultural revolution so that the place won't do a 180 if people are allowed democracy again.
>>2450775I'm most looking forward to the Rumberg war game, I enjoyed it in the Rizia DLC.
>>2451048>Join the ranks of the Kingdom of Rumburg’s high command and lead your forces in the struggle against the Republic of Agnolia’s unyielding armybased, fuck agnoids and their retard president. tie me to a missile and fire me at Staalport, I am ready.
is the Rizia DLC worth it? maybe at the next steam sale?
>>2451093Yes, its less suffering and more options. Also you get to do some fun combat, if you choose to go to war.
>>2451094>>2451093And no bitch wife, but you do get a selfish daughter.
>>2450775>Rule Through Collective Power>Govern alongside a committee of comrades, each with their own ambitions, loyalties, and vision for the future>Survive the Struggle for Power>Navigate foreign influence as rival interests challenge your authority*puts all budget into internal security*we'll see about that, "comrades"
>>2441489Nothing schizo about that, perfectly reasonable to make her understand she's a woman and not a leader.
>>2450705>"Ohhhh. I just suicided epstein"A bit of a reach, Peter was just a guy who had an inappropriate relationship with his assistant who had big tits and who also turned out to be a spy. The Epstein of the Suzerain world is more likely to be her Rumburgian employer or maybe that media mogul guy you can make a deal with, if I remember correctly, he had some ties with a gang.
>>2450775I wonder if I will have any reason not to hate Lespia.
>>2450862Yeah, though I guess it should have been obvious that the socialist country dlc would be really progressive, they had a homo-taliban and a gay marriage bill in Rizia and the franchise has always had women in places of power (even military power), so of course the dlc would make the country led by a woman with a racially diverse government and populace.
>>2451383I'm getting True Korea vibes from the trailer so hopefully you can ditch champagne socialism and become true Juche niggaz.
>>2451417Considering how the player character is apparently the woman in the white uniform I think one can as play as a female Stalin/Kim-Il-Sung
>>2451383>>2451417>>2451429I think it will be more Cuba judging by the racial diversity and bright tropical colours of the clothes, ships and environment, along with the island nature of Galmland. I'm guessing female Fidel but I do doubt that we will be able to be as based as the actual Castro when it comes to social issues. It will be interesting to play a smaller nation that is communist from the start but I think there is a real opportunity for a good story following Malenyev's death and us playing the successor. To my understanding he is a Lenin figure due to him being the actual original revolutionary who unlike Lenin lived long past his power struggle. We could be anything from Stalin to Khrushchev to Xiaoping.
>first playthrough >do a bunch of shit for my whiny carpet salesman neighbor >accept invite to intermerkopum >i guess you can fuck yourself Riveting storytelling here, guys. Lots of choices to make. What do I do with this? He's already given me a doorstopper that has a buttplug on it. Morella already backed out because I guess I didn't grant birds the right to vote or something.
>>2451244You haven't played the game
>>2451545>PLUS TWENTY SIX AUTHORITY PER TURNwtf? I never had above about 6 total the entire game past the first turn
>>2451510Wouldn't the successor to Malenyev come from his country?
>>2451547Oh? Thank you for informing me of that.
>>2451554I meant as a different dlc based around Cortana. Though I doubt they will do that given Galmland is the commie dlc. It is like I also want a dlc from the perspective of a new Arcasian president. Being a major power instead of a shitter one would be cool.
>marrying the commie bitchDon't tell me you can actually do this? I almost want to try.
>>2451805Think about it two kingdoms under one crown. Worth putting up with a bitch. I dont think it is possible
>>2451805She always says no, no matter what. Funny that you can ask though. And personally, I want commie mommy to feed me biscuits and sit on my face
>>2451884You can hug her at least.
>>2451884Pretty sure you could marry her if you offer to buy lespia's portion of the deal AND let her country privatize and then she says "whats in it for you?" and you threaten to call off the deal if she doesn't agree.I haven't tried it though so you might know better than me.
>>2447787They just made Sir Brante free to promote release of the new one, for anyone who didn't have it yet.
>>2451907Thank you I didn't know or have it.
>>2451907>it's realwhat the fuck, based
Now if only my retarded daughter had just shut up and got herself married off to a duke.I investigated the death of the MCs father and found out that the blonde military girl was responsible for it. Was I being thrown off by false information or is this actually correct?
>>2451907You beauty, merci>>2451946Oh anon...
>>2451946Yeah, you got had.
>>2451429The chick in white looks like a flight attendant, like bro :skull: look at my general-secretary :rose: #FREEGALMLAND #HEGELPLS
thanks for making me feel like shit Torporguess I kinda deserved it
>new dlc>female commieI think we know how female tankie politicians usually end
If it were up to me I'd have Tusk hanged on live TV
>>2452226Kek wish she looked like that
>>2451510I wonder how the game will react to certain situations. AnCap Raine and Monarch Toras aren't going to be the most receptive to True Valgsland, especially once Juche marches on the crypto-imperialist old man, an unbreakable tide of devout youth bringing an end to the false socialist-capitalism that has corrupted the once beautiful nation! I'm going to get nuked. >>2451946 Yeah, it was yo boy Alvarez. Devious little bastard, but a shit none the less. >>2452467JUCHE AWAITS!>>2452641I hope the visual novel DLC they're making lets you interview these assholes. Rusty's sleazy enough and shitty enough, I can easily see him sitting down for a couple bucks just to get roasted on live TV.
>>2451946>I investigated the death of the MCs father and found out that the blonde military girl was responsible for it. Was I being thrown off by false information or is this actually correct?It's not correct, the blonde girl caused false flag but the priest murdered the father
It's worth it more to blackmail Lespia so I can get Rusty and the RRG than to tell the world about the bombing no?
>>2453179For sure, nothing happens to Lespia internationally if you snitch on them, but they lose a major asset if you blackmail them.
>>2453135>I wonder how the game will react to certain situations. AnCap Raine and Monarch TorasThey really need a hoi4 style gamerule at this point, I don't really want to replay Sordland just to get the game history I want for Rizia and Galmland.>TorasMy King has a bromance with Hegel, we call each other late at night and bitch about the Lespian-Pales gay relationship.>AlvarezAnon...
>>2453179>>2453181Can you still only do this by sending the Golden Guard onto SU? I don't want to break relations with Rico as I am planning to chud out. Also is it worth it to shoot his dog so him and Vina get along? I don't care that much about who she marries as I am going to breed the blonde for a true heir. I get the feeling that popping his dog will sour our communiques.
So why can't we drink that crap? I'm pretty sure Romus is the chosen one since he can see the future.
>Hegel's a loose cannon.>Sordland is a failed state with a broken economy, a screwed up one-party system, and not one but THREE potential uprisings on the horizon. >Rizia's an expansionist monarchy ran by inbred naarcissts. >Galmsland is best Valgsland. >Beatrice clearly plans to destroy Sordland.Alvarez did absolutely nothing wrong. I'd be building up and expanding too.
>>2453179Yes. Its not too hard to get Zille back without snitching and that way you get RRG and Rusty's toilet seat for yourself
>>2453400This post was typed with shaking alcoholic lespian hands
>>2453421Considering how I never won as Sordland, but won as Rizia, I have to say the superior and more finely cultivated genetics of southern Merkopa played a distinct role in the fall of Sordland. Those half-Valgish mongreloids are simply too low IQ to compete with their betters.
>>2453400They've character assassinated lespia by making them comically evil. If you don't negotiate with Morella he will try to steal your shares which is retarded because you can just say no and nothing will come out of it and he'll be all pissed but if you vote yes and give your shares to lespia he will act smug and mock you for it. It's literally just acting evil for the sake of acting evil because devs are leftists roachmen who can't write
>>2453429Nukecel says what?
>>2442190I hate that there's no war path where you give beatrice the romanov ending.
>>2442190Kind of disappointed Rizia didn't get to see any of the aftershocks from the Nuclear War. With my oversized military, I was wondering if I would get a 'Gaddafi after the bombs dropped' scenario where Rizia uses it's oversized army to raid Lespia and Whelen for resources, blackmails ATO with refugee hordes, while somehow providing a relatively high quality of life to it's citizenry. >>2453446The Rums are, at best, a second rate northern race. While they're certainly above the slobbering Sords and the Lespians who have yet to learn how to control their bowels, one cannot deny their noticeable weaknesses when compared to the Rizian bloodlines.
Dear pernicious taxpayer-money-sucking berliners (turks) of Torpor Games, please put the fucking gold bar on sale so I can complete my collection.And do Wehlen or Lespia next instead of literally who micronesian commies.
If you can't Beriamaxx in the commie DLC it's a waste of time
Reminder that the reason this takes place in a fictional world instead of IRL is because Erdogan would have the devs killed if they dared slander the glorious Republic of Turkiye.
Reminder all you niggers who spent the past 5 years seething about Rumburg will bend over backwards and simp for teen Beatrice in the next game
>>2453614I won't. Total R*m Death.
>>2453439It's just aggressive protectionism.Rizia is supposed to be a chuddy reversal of Sordland wherein the fading leviathan reasserts itself and puts the uppity bourgeoise republican libtards in their place but Alvarez being such a greasy Berlusconi expy somewhat undermines the point.
>>2453616YOU WILL SUPPORT THE QUEENYOU WILL LEAD HER ARMIES TO VICTORY OVER AGNOLIAYOU WILL BE ASSIMILATED
>>2453614uoh erotic warcriminal
>>2453614>Join the ranks of the Kingdom of Rumburg’s high command and lead your forces in the struggle against the Republic of Agnolia’s unyielding army.>A high-stakes, turn-based war strategy game set in the Suzerain Universe where every decision on the battlefield can decide the outcome of the war.>struggle>agnoia's unyealding army>high stakes
>>2453766I think Rumburg's army may be incompetent.The fact if you use any sort of actual clever strategy it folds to a third rate power like Sordland should tell you that.
>>2453773Yeah, but then looking at it again, Rumburg seems to be very sparsely populated. Look at the Agnolian border. God knows how poor their logistic situation is going to be in both wars.
>>2453776I think they are going for a Russian thing but the issue is their setup looks more like Siberia then anything else. I'm guessing the vast majority of the Rummish logistics will be railway networks but given that sparsity and underdeveloped frontier it will probably be like pic rel with all the bottlenecks it faced irl.
>>2453773It's explained in game. The Mark, Sord, Valg and Agno tribes are all purple-blooded people (Aryans) from the Great North. They raped the inferior peasant people of the Kingdom of Rums for 1500 years. Only in the recent years did the Rums manage to multiply so much they have the possibility to win by sheer numbers but they are still not strong compared to smaller but purple-blooded nations like Agnolia.
>>2453789>The Mark, Sord, Valg and Agno tribes are all pur->*NUKED*Credit roll...
>>2453792>can't win a war without throwing nukes around like a spergLet's be real, if you thought the AN sanctions for having their nuclear program revealed were bad, nuking Sordland because you can't fucking win a conventional war against a country as dysfunctional as Sordland is would likely lead to Rumburg becoming North Korea-tier isolated. When they're dependent on energy imports.
>>2453773Well, the Pincer maneuver failed for me one time after I funded the army. I'm pretty sure that game was bugged due to Rictor accusing me of shit I didn't do but I wouldn't call the Rums incompetent.
>>2453766Rumburg is basically just Tzarist Russiaif that doesn't clue you in on the incredible depths of their military incompetence not sure what will
>>2454146Tsarist Russia mixed with some strong Anglo-Saxon influence, you have some names lifted straight from 9th century England like Eadric. I'd also argue it was less the Russian military and more the house of cards at the home front. Brusilov would have continued his dance over the Carpathians were everything peachy back in the industrial heartlands. Despite her bold expansionism, I'm assuming Beatrice's domestic situation is not as stable as it appears.
>>2454146Tsarist Russia was overall not that incompetent, just middle of the road. It just that:German war machine was built different.The army's logistics were failed by the home front and politicians.Kerensky's or some other republican's retarded reform was passed that kill the army. Elected officers or something I can't remember.
>>2454187
Do you think they will add a war option for Zille? It might be redundant honestly given you can use your paramilitaries to get it back.
>>2454188Initial forces not counting reinforcements.. Germans and Austrians then began desperately funneling everything they could spare there to plug the Brusilov gap. Else Austria would have collapsed and Russia would have gotten the Good Ending.
>>2454194Where's the strength counting reinforcements? every other article for battles includes that number.
>>2454176>>2454187Reading the "The Russian Army in the World War" by Golovin shows an utterly incompetent Tsarist administration and officer class.And this was written by a White, not a Red.
Solo war is the only correct choice. You bismark Beatrice.
>>2454198It's somewhat relative, you have to remember that the other Great Powers had many similar issues with procurement and tactics so zeroing in on the Russian failures paints an incorrect picture, as would only looking at the Somme or Nivelle offensive when judging the Entente's capabilities. Don't forget that the Russian army was not routed from the front until their home front collapsed in on itself, their main issue was a lack of supply and domestic stability rather then a lack of competence. That is not to say they were amazing, they had many awful command decisions, but just that when compared to their contemporaries they were by no means lightweights. Their government were definitely, undeniably, incompetent however.
Wait, is the wiki right? Can you actually get away with going full commie so long as you give Iosef a pile of money and win the war?
