Neither will EU5.How fares your empire, /gsg/?On this day in history, the 11th of September:9 – The Battle of the Teutoburg Forest ends: The Roman Empire suffers the greatest defeat of its history and the Rhine is established as the border between the Empire and the so-called barbarians for the next four hundred years.1185 – Isaac II Angelos kills Stephen Hagiochristophorites and then appeals to the people, resulting in the revolt that deposes Andronikos I Komnenos and places Isaac on the throne of the Byzantine Empire.1297 – Battle of Stirling Bridge: Scots jointly led by William Wallace and Andrew Moray defeat the English.1708 – Charles XII of Sweden stops his march to conquer Moscow outside Smolensk, marking the turning point in the Great Northern War. The army is defeated nine months later in the Battle of Poltava, and the Swedish Empire ceases to be a major power.2001 – Nineteen members of al-Qaeda execute the September 11 attacks, a series of coordinated terrorist attacks that killed 2,977 people using four hijacked aircraft. Two aircraft crash into the World Trade Center in New York City, a third crashes into The Pentagon in Arlington County, Virginia, and a fourth into a field near Shanksville, Pennsylvania.Random Country Pickerhttp://orph.link/random>Archive (mods only)https://mega.nz/#F!plMxFYTB!sn9MTrvJ0tYjWSHgM8CZow>Where to get these gameshttps://web.archive.org/web/20190720131512/http://hastebin.com/raw/moqugasume>Mods>> READ THIS FIRST.https://web.archive.org/web/20200712212437/https://pastebin.com/33A7wXdB>>[V2] - Niggermodhttps://pastebin.com/Xgjd5LvG>>[V2] - Crimeamodhttps://www.moddb.com/mods/crimeamodPrevious thread: >>2481098
Good OP but id say it's missing a few events1980 – A new constitution of Chile is established under the influence of then Chilean dictator Augusto Pinochet, which is subject to controversy in Chile today.1982 – The international forces that were guaranteeing the safety of Palestinian refugees following Israel's 1982 Invasion of Lebanon leave Beirut. Five days later, several thousand refugees are massacred

eu5 is actually kinda lame like that, most of the christianity verieties it offers are medieval and there's only 3 (or 4 if you count hus) christianity verieties that have anything to do with the reformationother chrisitan verieties have it even worse, i mean the orthodox don't even get the funny cut your dick off movement in the game

any other /gsg/ooks still playing I:R?having fun with vanilla and trying to decide if this invictus mod is actually good or just massive bloat
>orthodoxy>clergy cannot marrythats because the clergy you interact within the game with are supposed to be the higherups and in the orthodox church while priests are allowed to BE married, they aren't allowed to MARRY as in, get a wife after being ordainednot only that but since they're high up enough to talk to the king, they are presumed to have been either widowed or never married, since those are the only priests that are allowed to advance past the parish priest stage (and even in the case of widowers, they need to take special vows to compensate)this is because in the bible being single (and celibate) is seen as ideal and being married as a lesser evil and a stopgap measure to stop those with low self control from sinning even further, see: 1 Corinthians 7the roman catholic church at one point decided that it will hold up their priests to the highest standard, though not really since they do allow "eastern rite" churches to still do what they do just as long as they bow down to the guy in rome, and let's be real there is a near total lack of enforcement when it comes to having a lover outside of marriage in the regular church anyway

i am not allergic to the word orthodoxy, i just assumed you were discussing eu4 stat shit which happens everyday in hereif you want to know, i think orthodoxy is based because, like protestants, it broke away from the roman catholics
>bibleposter is also a prudeshould've been expected desu
>i think orthodoxy is based because, like protestants, it broke away from the roman catholicswhat's funny about this statement is that the orthodox would very much disagree with you, on so many levels too...
>>2486735>it broke away from the roman catholicsRoman Catholics broke away from Orthodoxy. Do you even schism bro?
in this household the patriarch of rome holds primacy over the other 4 patriarchs
>everybody and their mom sees that "roman catholicism" and "orthodox" christianity are two different things>but no, members of the orthodox claim they are one and the same, seamless and allathatmental gymnastics, but okaywait, this is you baiting me isn't ittime to stop
imagine the world where henry the 8th asked the patriarch of constantinople for a divorce...
okay well i honestly wanted to leave it at the remark being funny but my main point was that the schism here has very little resemblence to the protestant reformationthe protestant were openly and proudly breaking away from ("protesting") the catholic church (with anglicans claiming to be the inheritors and true continuation of the church but w/e we're talking about lutherans and what have you now)meanwhile the division between the eastern orthodox and roman catholic bishops happened without any declaration, along geographic lines, slowly over a large amount of time, all due to which bishop the local leader pled loyalty to. the average parishioner didn't even know there was any kind of schism, everyday practices continued as normal with no announcement or anything of the sort. if a catholic priest gets stranded on an island along with 10 parishioners, are they starting a new church because they're out of contact with the vatican? meanwhile, when a church went lutheran it was openly declared with major and minor changes blatantly obvious
okaynow, that textwall, i actually did read
>imagine the world where henry the 8th asked the patriarch of constantinople for a divorce...should've included this in my last reply, those schizo orthodox converts in america have a conspiracy theory that england was orthodox until 1066these are the same people that canonised nicky II as a saint so i wouldn't put too much faith into this but you know...
So under the new DLC, would a catholic China spawn a new rite? Going around as a missionary sounds like it will be actually meaningful this time

>in other words, what i stated equates to what you stated when you said "Paul blatantly states that being single (and celibate) is preferrable to marriage"no, your tone implied indifference, where as what paul was talking about is more akin to "you shouldn't do drugs, but if you do then at least you should read up on them so you don't overdose", it's still a condemnation. being single is the only thing there that's seen as "good", being married is seen as a lesser evil, a compromise, not "cool"

Close translation (from AI)1 Now concerning the things about which you wrote: it is good for a man not to touch a woman.2 But because of sexual immoralities, let each man have his own wife, and let each woman have her own husband.3 Let the husband give to his wife what is owed, and likewise also the wife to her husband.4 The wife does not exercise authority over her own body, but the husband does; likewise also, the husband does not exercise authority over his own body, but the wife does.5 Do not deprive one another—unless perhaps by mutual agreement for a time, so that you may devote yourselves to prayer—and then be together again, so that Satan may not tempt you because of your lack of self-control.

The worst you can do is spill a few more grains of sand from the hourglass that represents the limited time you have left with your family before God blesses the middle east with split atoms.6 But I say this as a concession, not as a command.7 Now I wish all people to be as I myself am; but each has his own gift from God—one in this way and another in that way.8 Now I say to the unmarried and to the widows: it is good for them if they remain as I also am.9 But if they are not exercising self-control, let them marry; for it is better to marry than to burn.
woah melty

If anyone here actually knows Greek and would like to bless us all with a more faithful and literal interpretation from Paul the Apostle with which retards can justify their backwards world views, feel free. But that's the actual translation of the text, unlike whatever is in (((modern))) bibles. Both of you were completely fucking wrong. Shut the fuck up about the bible, you have never read it.
someone let me know when this retard realizes that marriage is a holy thing from god and not this bad thing that equates to smoking cigarettes and drugs and getting drunk
The poll is clear, unsure of what to do about the "CB" question but I think i've come up with a solution: i'll see how long fabricating a real CB will take and if it takes too long, I'll use the tributary one. Who knows, maybe it'll let me make a tributary out of norway? that would be something.Until then, there is a more pressing matter: what agenda should be chosen for the next parliment? Vote in the next fan poll, I think we've made enough progress for now. See you next week!
>what agenda should be chosen for the next parliament?mandating non-removable bottlecaps
>>2486884Yet the Holy Bible says that chuds like you and I should first take the sword to the enemies of God.Let whichever of us survives come back and marry and sin to our heart's content. To sin is to be human. A marriage is a sacred union, the binding of two souls together, it is not a sacrament you perform out of pure ritual of just doing the thing but so that you can bring life into the world without feeling a sinful barbarian as you do so. Women create- Men destroy. (Or at least they are intended to, todays women don't create a damned thing.) When you marry to create a child you are becoming something new, you become a creator. Women who are married are known to be capable of feats of destructive strength to save their children in harms way, and in that way they also become something new, the Alpha and the Omega, as you do.The Catholic Church does not allow marriage because their Priests are SUPPOSED to dedicate their entire life to destroying the enemies of God by doctrine.
why are you giving a guarantee to v-novgorod?>what agenda should be chosen for the next parliament?whatever is least regrettable, i guess? you know the drill, nothing that gives one of the estates too much power and/or nothing that has bad side-effects and isn't too difficult to repeal later on because of retardedly huge stability hits
that's cool but i'm still not going to let priests marrysorry bro...but i'm just like.... just NOT gonna allow it okay? sorry :(
>The Catholic Church does not allow marriage because their Priests are SUPPOSED to dedicate their entire life to destroying the enemies of God by doctrine.this is an act of prohibition which was never implied in the bible to be an act of prohibitionit's not measured, instead it is extreme and therefore unnecessarythere was nothing of this in the old testament among the jews but then you see god taking the form of a man, and maybe as a result, he never has any woman, and so you throw sex and marriage out the windowsame with paul/saul who wasn't even a christian in the beginning, who never condemned marriage but also just happened to not have any attraction to women (maybe he was born asexual or struggled to fight with faggot thoughts, it's very debatable which one)
why does the bible use the ai dash
>>2486908Have you tried reading top to bottom instead of right to left like a chink or bottom to top like an alien?
i never understood languages that read from right to leftif you're right handed and write from right to left you'll just end up smearing what you wrote with your hand
that's working with the assumption you're writing with a pen and paper which wasn't the norm for most of historyif you're carving into clay tablets you're not going to smear the clay are you?
most people draw with pencil/pen/crayon/grafitti-sprayer/etc from right to left
yeah because most people are chinese, duh
okay just kidding, i picked the noble backed agenda simply because that's the only one that has a real chance of passing. The war plan, as per the poll, was a compromise between the moderate jingoism of "just invade with whatever" and the less than moderate "get a blobbing CB first and enact total coalition death" sides. And like every compromise, it doesn't leave anyone (me) satisfied. While we're waiting for the lithuanian CB (pictured, the wheel barely moves and you can't check when it will end in any menu), Scotland joined the coalition. This is the final straw, the compromise has failed. Robert de Bruce has either sacrificed his nation all together, or changed the future of eastern europe. With Scotland in, nobody can be sure if France will join the war or not. This leaves two options, attack now before that's cerain (?) or... just let go. If anything is certain, it's that we're not beating France right now.But there's also good news, the nobility has been placated by the parliment, making the insurgency actually tick down, not up. That's something. And uhhh... yeah, what do, but actually asking this time? Will france join?
again, why are you giving v novgorod a guarantee
i really really like how this guy hasn't even reunited poland proper yet he's invading random places like ireland or finland
he owns ireland because i told him to get irelandit shall serve as his launchpad into america

>why are you giving v novgorod a guaranteei'm not. that's another russian country guaranteeing them. I just showed it because it means next time we go to war, we'll have to fight them too.Ready to declare war, but here's the problem: am I reading this right?If i AM reading this right, that would mean they all can call in their allies into this war. If that is how this works, there is no way to declare this war now, there is no way we are fighting france AND denmark's allies AND norway's allies ect. if it doesn't work like that, this will still be somewhat tough on us since the polish navy is nonexistent, but it won't be impossible.Does anyone actually know how this works? I want to oblige by that poll's results but uh... we might just have to let this one go lads...
wasn't there a ck3 mod that allowed you to integrate bannerlord with it somehownot that i ever played it, i stopped caring for mount and blade gameplay after coming to /gsg/
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p3G5IXn0K7Ayes that was a real mod, or is a real mod?whenever you had a ck3 battle (i think maybe your ruler must've been a general also) you had the option to play out the battle and the mod would open an instance of bannerlord and set up a battle for you to play out where the troops would be scaled by a factor of 30 or something like that, so a battle with a few thousand on each side in ck3 would be abattle of 2x 300 guys it'd try to match troop types with what's in bannerlord but idk how successful it was with that

colonial ottomans makes infinitely more sense than colonial poland and even that is horribly retarded
one of the reasons for this run is to see what eu5 allows for, as far as ahistorical colonialismin this sense, you calling the scenario of poland colonizing amerca "horribly retarded" is a strong argument for why he should stick to the plan and do it
poland should go east and beat the steppeniggers at their own game

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Batu_Khan
he does that, it's kind of his weaknessi've been ignored too, don't take it personallybut anyways, playing as spain and colonizing even the entirety of both americas isn't nearly as reassuring of possibilities that eu5 allows than playing as poland or muscovy or something else that hasn't colonized america and successfully colonizing america>and again you can do this as anybody that is european and has pops and moneyyou say thisbuthave you actually done this with a country that has never in history done thisi want to see it done
the mechanics simply allow it what more do you want me to say if you aren't braindead and you try to colonize you can just grab all of the new world in exchange for like 50-100 years of bleeding cash and popsyou already see sicily and whatnot colonizing every run(well not YOU i suppose since it took you 5 months to play the game for 30 hours but uhh)

colonizing is BORING AND POINTLESSok bismarck
colonizing africa is boring and pointlesscolonizing america is cool
Africa has some great coastal nodes. Ivory Coast, Cape and Zanzibar are all amazing for creating value.Zanzibar can even draw trade from India.
colonizing america is boring and pointlesscolonizing finland is cool
1. were talking americas not africa2. no trade = no value
I mean, create 5 colonies in a zone and then that will form a colonial nation. The colonial nation itself will then colonise for you.Nation such as Spain can take almost all of the Americas by 1600.The return on investment is definitely there and sometimes they will even send ships and armies to help you in your wars.
r we talking about eu4 or eu5?yeah colonizing is great in eu4, but going inno ideas is better
the fact they dont need pops from home and instead just make them up out of thin air as well as jus assimilating redskins into whiteys ruins the vibe
there's one guy talking about eu4 and another 2 talking about 5no clue how none of them realized they're talking over eachother they look like utter fucking morons
there's an option to kill the indians, but it's bad because it requires you to garrison your colonies

I'd like to thank the helpful people who correctly parsed this UI and identified allies of these nations as not joining, thank you.Just as we start our war. France started a war of their own, and cruicially, it's a war against the HRE, meaning Bohemia. Let's hope the war lasts for 4 years and their entire army dies.The Irish front of the war is going surprisingly well, the polish army is almost entirely cavalry so we can easly outmanouver the enemy and never fight directly with enough micromanagement, basically performing guerilla warfare.The relevant front(s) go even better with Lithuania being a total pushover. However, an enemy does arrive at the gates. Will they disrupt out war machine? Tune in next time (sunday) to find out!>what do you guys think?definitely will at least consider some of the suggestions>poland should go east and beat the steppeniggers at their own gamethe funny thing is, I can no longer fabricate a CB on them since they moved their capital "out of range", i'll need just a little tiny bit more blobbing to the east to be able to do that. definitely a goal to beat them up in some form, though blobbing there is a bit much IMO>pole5bro read my comment then ignored my request to answer my questionwhat comment and what question -_- i'm scrolling through the thread and not seeing anything?all the comments about colonising don't apply to me because they all start with "if you have pops and money" bitch i have neither
Concerning the discussion from earlier when people were talking past each other: This is more of a grand strategy than EU4.

desu in hoi3 u just pushed the autoadvance button and ur motorised would instantly overrun the entire soviet army in a week and drive to moscow with no opposition
sounds realistic
kind is now that i think about it problem is the soviets wouldn't counterattack you when you got there
idk they counterattacked me when i played hoi3 so i switched to fall blau and taking petrograd

well i can't play that way as hungary, it drains all my manpowerand no don't go telling me to go play as germany or russia either
play as germany or russia
>no you don't get it i HAVE to play as san marino in this ww2 game
who said anything about san marino
for me, it's andorra
anyways, if the paradox interactive game only lets you win if you pick a big country that you put no effort into building up to that size then it's a bad game
at least san marino and andorra could reasonably putsch italy and spain, respectively, and the local populace of those places could reasonably accept being sent into the meatgrinder against gpsbut hungary is limited to hungarians so no matter how much you expand you have no hope of matching germany in power and even germany at her full power couldn't win against the rest of the world
>ww2 game is bad for representing ww2 correctly

Decided on a Poland "Prevent the partitions" roleplay run, with a goal to cripple the future partitioners and own a piece of them, it later expanded into additionally punishing those who indirectly contributed to them.And a suprising second main character in form of the Timurids(they technically own more land than me).Would consider getting Hungarian PU luck but considering how agrresivly i was marrying their heirs and rulers it was only a matter of time. Also becouse of the Succession of the Danube situation I managed to get my dynasty onto the Austrian and Bohemian thrones though that didn't amount to anything except that offshot of my dynasty still rules them to this day. And the fact that Bohemia became fiefdom of Austria(they had 0% loyalty for the last 250 years and like 60% of europe supports their independence except me and France)

i much prefer my lunch to have no trajectory at all
are you jain? most people dont mind eating like that
yes, i hate the removal of hourly ticksyour best move with this is to just preserve the pirated version 1.3.11 you have so that you can always go back to it if eu5 gets even worse than 1.4, at least then you can play the last version that has hourly ticks

The Danish army, after sieging down one random location that isn't of any note whatsoever, decided to march east, presumably to regroup with lithuanian forces.Well too little too late, the Polish forces (actually mostly vassals) intercepted half of their army. Historians still debate if the number of losses on each side that we have on record are accurate or not.Meanwhile, the nobility at home rally the peasantry in an attempt to both garner some stability out of the situation and, perhaps, to call in another palriment session, Should they?

>>2487910Not even, 1.1 was better thank 1.3 even though it completely broke the economy. 1.3 fixed quite a few gamebreaking bugs 1.0 had where subjects were exceptionally buggy... but fun. 1.2 had some interesting introductions to trade but the problem is that it brought such massive performance issues it's not even worth touching. It's possible LAUNCH is the best version of yet another paradox game.
so my dear replyfag what you're saying is that we were wrong in our prediction that eu5 will be good in 5 years after 14 dlcs because every update makes the game worse?
>>2488214Yeah. Sadly. My prediction was honestly that it would be good on launch and it was, I played 500 hours, I just didn't predict they would intentionally make it worse after that.
*cracks down on protestants in the council of trent*
>>2488211>1.1i never played that>1.2i never played that either>1.3 fixed quite a few gamebreaking bugsgamebreaking how?>LAUNCH is the best version1.0? really? what's so great about it? you just said 1.3 fixed gamebreaking bugs, so wouldn't the first version have gamebreaking bugs? doesn't this make it absolute shit?i don't mind my vassal having a bitch-fit over me taking bits of land from her, but damn do i hate the cool-down10 years to annex before setting up a vassal is another painful cooldown
"Millions must die" decry the noblechuds in parliment as someone tries to throw the peasants a bone. "If they are to get anything out of this, millions must die!" and just like that, poland's entire cultural landscape drifted even more into jingoism.The army remains a little cool headed and tries to set a defensive parimiter behind the river Niemen, or as the locals call it, "Nemunas". If everything goes well, they won't be calling it that for very long.Meanwhile, the polish achilles' heel, the navy, is being outdone by Ross, a single province vassal of Scotland. They sure are pulling their weight in this war.
after* setting up a vassal is another painful cooldown
>>2488228>1.3Allowed laborers to promote to soldiers and burghers.AI Trade will know prefer trades with bigger surpluses if the profit difference is small, in order to promote stable and reliable trades.Pop demands scales down if the prices of those exceed default.Changed mercenary availability to draw from population, with per-arm scaling.Fixed war declarations on a subject to now check truces with every overlord that gets auto-pulled into the war.Province-claim casus belli is no longer lost at civil-war start.Changed smallpox to now spawn in subtropical climates and caps its distance-based stagnation, so outbreaks no longer cluster overwhelmingly in compact Europe while large Asian continents go relatively unscathed.Smallpox outbreaks have been shortened and rarefied. Spawn chance halved (0.1 -> 0.05), calc_interval slowed to match influenza ({2 8} -> {4 12}), and added a 15% location_spread_threshold so lightly-infected edges no longer creep into neighbors forever.
>>2488228>1.2COMPLETELY broke the fucking game btw. Infinite plagues and infinite mercenaries and infinite performance issues (including massive lagspikes when you click on any province.) Literally all slop AI code this is when they started slopcoding without a doubt. I can't even be bothered to point out all the issues with 1.2. Reddit denied the game was even lagging when you click a location even though every recording of the game indicated they were having a cpu processing spike of like 50% and were going from like 120 fps to 20 when clicking a prov on a 5090 current hardware. This one was easily worse than leviathan lol.
You shouldn't expect a Paradox game to be good on release.
okay, but you didn't answer my main question, about why you say the launch (1.0) version of eu5 was the best version
>1.1>There is now a game rule for how aggressive you want the AI to be.Single worst change in any game ever, they kept fucking with the aggression because the AI was playing the game TOO WELL. Holy fucking reddit.>Added transfer subject peace treaty.This was nice.>Added a new disaster for Brandenburg, “Turmoil in Brandenburg”,handling the content concerning the ‘Wittelsbacher Neglect’, ‘FalseWaldemar’, and ‘Robber Barons’ event chains in a more cohesive way. Also added 6 new additional events for it.This is just the "rape and kill brandenburg" event chain. Idk what the fuck this shit is but it's ALL vibecoded.>Added automation for auto balancing armies.Absolutely mandatory and something I can't even live without. Shit was BAD in 1.0 and that's all that made this a good release.>Added Music Player.lol >Any ruler and their family is automatically crown estate, but loses it if they leave the role (note for elections).lolhttps://eu5.paradoxwikis.com/Patch_1.1
>>2488241That's because I'm still posting and I'm not done yet. 1.1 made several massive changes that made the game worse but which made the game PLAYABLE. Here's a big one that was made in 1.1.>AI subjects will not develop their province on their own.So, now AI subjects will actually fucking work on their own country and actually use their own advisors for their self interest. They'll core shit and PLAY THE GAME. Before they didn't even do that on release. But this particular change makes it so that every colony is rebellious all the time because they set their advisors to rape your subject loyalty, instead, because it's the only thing they can do with their advisors now that development is gone for them, since colonies have 1 less option or 2 less options than regular subjects for whatever reason and that's the next one they go for.
>still in 1.1 patch notes>Stop export of food from markets with no food stockpile.Absolutely mandatory change.>The game now tracks if a location has roads connected to the capital or not.Absolutely mandatory change.>Hostile troops in a location have a direct impact on food production and decay.Absolutely mandatory change.>A lot of raw materials got increased transport costs and a lot of produced goods got reduced transport cost.Absolutely mandatory change.
Now for the anti fun changes of 1.1>Cannot annex while at war.>Stop subjects being picked for rebels to secede to.>Cannot sell or buy capitals.>Halved the colonial migration, and made it more costly.>Vassalizing the Pope will now lead the Tithe to be funneled into the Catholic Church's treasury instead of the Pope's pockets. The Pope is allowed to withdraw that money from their Holy ATM once they are independent again.>The HRE will immediately re-elect an emperor if its current emperor becomes revolutionary. Additionally, revolutionary countries are now blocked from being eligible for HRE elections.>Rivals can no longer join or create Defensive Leagues with their rivals.The big one that reflected a total shift of design philosophy.>The HRE AI will no longer declare no cb wars within the HRE.Wtf? The entire point of no-cb wars being the standard is that the AI would do them and lose some stability for it. They said this over and over and over.
All of 1.1 is like that. Mandatory change that should have been in 1.0 followed by the biggest fun ruiner you've ever seen in a sandbox just to make the rail roadie redditors happy. These are two completely different design philosophies which could not have come from the same design lead. EuV was a SUCCESS on launch and I have no idea why the fuck some new railroaddie design lead was allowed on the team to rape Johan's sandbox sim when it sold great and was a fun game ON LAUNCH NOT EVEN A FEW MONTHS EARLIER, just because some youtubers complained that 'ermmm le brandenburg conquered northeast germany early again ;(!!! Spain conquered portugal!!! Johan... this is le bad!'
ahyou do realize though, that...>EuV was a SUCCESS on launch... this "success" wasn't determined by what is in the game, but by the hype and excitement and faith of the playerbase/fanbase on the game, right?you can't say "many players bought the game on day 1" and say "the game is good because of that" because people that buy the game on day 1 are absolutely fucking ignorant as to what is inside the game until they actually play itthat's why dumbass day-1 buyers are stupid normie cattle, they speak with their wallet but they shriek "THIS GAME SUCKS" at least four hours later because they realize the game wasn't what they were expectingnow if you've actually played the launch version of the game a shitload and say it's good, then yea', you're worth listening to
when i was deciding on what version to play on i was doing some reaserch and based on my understanding, the game's meta used to be to create a shitload of 1 province vassals and flip tje culture for each of them, since then they made the meta not quite obnoxious so imo that's a 1.3 win over 1.0
>>2488257>now if you've actually played the launch version of the game a shitload and say it's good, then yea', you're worth listening toNot a veritable shitload but I've played about 150 hours of every major version since launch except for the newest. I'm not even gonna touch the hourly ticks version of the game.They also had a 1 to 6 diceroll at launch which was much better than the 1 to 10, and hill and mountain terrain modifiers were much more important, but they removed that without a word in I think 1.1 or 1.2. That REALLY sucked.
>>2488259>so imo that's a 1.3 win over 1.0That's not even the meta that's just what youtubers do. Even in 1.0 it's better just to annex and then leave it uncored until all the new wrong culture wrong religion pops migrate to your capital and assimilate over time.
funny because that's a liqqy strat as welland an irl strat of multicultural empires
>I'm not even gonna touch the hourly ticks version of the game.you mean... the daily* ticks version? 1.4? i understand>They also had a 1 to 6 diceroll at launch which was much better than the 1 to 10i don't see the big deal about that, but me not being a d&d fag might have something to do with my lack of understanding as to why that's a big deal>and hill and mountain terrain modifiers were much more important,ah... i've only been dicking around in slavshitter land, so there's so far no hill and mountain adventures for me
>>2488265>you mean... the daily* ticks version? 1.4? i understandYeah my b. They wrecked performance and don't know what they changed on the back end to do it between 1.1 and 1.2 even though they have the source code and their solution is just entirely removing random features until hopefully the problem is fixed when the game works in 1.0. Very infuriating. I just rolled back to 1.0.11, guess I'm gonna give the game a try on launch and see if it's as good as I remember on last January's patch. Stuff like the music player will be missing... but Eu5 still only plays the same fucking 5 'contextual' songs no matter what with no way to enable all the other ones lol.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U_0XuGUri9U>>2488265>slavshit landMajor river crossings are I think a -2

The Pope is allowed to withdraw that money from their Holy ATM once they are independent again.i am allergic to anything involving the pope in these games, so this wouldn't affect me i don't think>>The HRE will immediately re-elect an emperor if its current emperor becomes revolutionary. Additionally, revolutionary countries are now blocked from being eligible for HRE elections.basically same answer to the previous one, i only care about/have plans for playthroughs of russia and maybe japan or china in this game, and maybe, just maybe, starting as padova and germany and blobbing as each>Rivals can no longer join or create Defensive Leagues with their rivals.this makes sense, thoughwhy would two nations that hate eachother get something similar to an alliance?
poland got cucked by tyrone
>greenblack>greenblack>greenblack>greenblack>greenblack
>>2488274>Stop subjects being picked for rebels to secede to.It means that when you have a small subject bulgaria and you rape the ottomans with devastation and bulgarian rebels succeed in the ottomans at rebelling, they don't flip to your subject. And vice versa. It also means that if you have a subject with a bunch of land but they don't own the entire culture group, ie you're hungary and you own part of serbia, it won't flip to your subject it'll become an independent randomly generated nation of that culture. This is a big anti fun change eu4 could never ever ever make.>Cannot sell or buy capitals.It's a big deal because capitals can move alot in eu5 especially for countries like bavaria. It's just weird anti sandbox change I guess it's not as big a deal as the other ones though.>but i once heard that colonizing is absolutely pointlessYep and it's sad.>why would two nations that hate eachother get something similar to an alliance?To fight off a larger scarier nation?
>>2488274>>2488280Furthermore it was a gigantic deal to the dev team that the SOLE PURPOSE of defensive leagues was to allow rivals to work together against bigger scarier nations and they explicitly talked about it before launch, indicating that somebody other than the original devs was working on it during 1.1. That's the reason I brought it up.
but poland can't into space

i agree the trannification of femboy spaces is cringehowever i suspect many of you are into them anyway
how did you know? :3
I wanted to post in the thread that was posted earlier but that got archived.Anyway... The sejm gathering already paid for itself with this great opportunity to give silesians a say in how the country is run and thus, assure them they are now part of something greater than before.Just as Poland is about to become part of a great monetary organization apparantly. Is this good? Bad? Leave your thoughts below, but it's happening, Kraków is getting a bank.One of the actual anti-fun mechanics in this game is the fact that you're not allowed to separate peace someone until a year has passed since the declaration of war, in this case that'd be May. You can only bypass this if you 100% occupy it seems. Our first victim, a little later than I would've hoped for, is out of the picture.Just as Denmark is about to be.
i assume that destroying any noble estate buildings that i can in eu5 isn't going to hurt me in the future
>>2488302It reduces the amount of noble pops and noble pops get on horses and go to war. With the massive levy buffs this is actually amazingly powerful, each noble manor represents a massive boon that scales through the ages for free. Nobles also consume a stupidly high amount of goods, which is great for a consumer economy.
so what you're saying is that i should stop destroying them? got iti really want to strip them of their power thoughbut also i think that would make their support in the parliament weaker, which is bad if i want to get parliament-issued casus bellis
You neglected to mention how it makes nobles more powerful, which translates to them not being taxed as much if their power is over 25%I'd say that's a big downside.I destroy them myself and I think it's to my benefit.Here's what I propose the peacedeal against Lithuania should be. One of these provinces I need because a vassal of ours already owns part of it, the other 2 are there so there's no bordergore. I'm open to suggestions though.
>>2488312>which translates to them not being taxed as much if their power is over 25%Which lowers your taxable income which lowers the cost of your stability AND cost of court while leaving that money to your nobles, which they can then use to upgrade buildings to increase your GDP overall, just so long as they are loyal.Keep them loyal and you win forever. Balancing your estates of course is the entire game.Lithuania, of course, is lovely for this. But as always I am biased.
>replyfag is trying to lazy fairy eu5post your lithuania game where you're actually doing this and lets see how it plays out*buils medieval clipper factories in vilnius*
Imagine how scary it must have been to border the Timurids back in the day.You probably go to sleep every night, praying that he will invade a nation on the other side of the empire from where you are.
>>2488320Pretty good so far? eu5 takes a long time to play. Won my first war handily and took half of teutons, I'm trying to gobble up as much amber as I can there before I'm forced east.
>>2486484>a third crashes into The Pentagonlol if you believe this garbage
>>2488325Why bother pointing that out in particular? All of history is a fake constructed narrative. Carbon dating on the Colosseum reveals the Romans either didn't build it themselves or, worse, that our timeline for the Roman Empire is off by hundreds of years. This is the 'constructed narrative' enjoyer general. It makes sense to have parts of 'history' included in the OP that supposedly coincide with today no matter how farcical.
>Keep them loyal and you win forever.how do i make them loyal? or, when do they ever become UNLoyal?i've never suffered estates becoming unloyal, the only thing i suffer with them is them giving me a stability reduction and what-have-you just because i didn't hand out enough privileges after demanding a casus belli to circumvent the gay tatar yoke
>>2488327>or, when do they ever become UNLoyal?Events usually. Overtaxxing them will do it too.>how do i make them loyal?'only nobility as leaders' privilege, 'primacy of the nobility' privilege, 'elaborate court life' privilege, 'elite council' privilege. Pick and choose which suit your country best, I would say you want 2 or 3 of these usually.Also you want to undertax your estates by 10% to make them loyal loyal. You want your estate equilibrium at 60% so that they love you and have a 9/10 chance (or whatever the number is) to build only buildings that benefit your empire.>the only thing i suffer with them is them giving me a stability reduction and what-have-you just because i didn't hand out enough privileges after demanding a casus belli to circumvent the gay tatar yokeIt's better to just no-cb unless you are suffering from extreme aggressive expansion in the region.
ugh...i'd like to see anyone say roman catholicism is not the best religion

What a lovely little HRE. Look at all this war.
So what is your primary focus in between wars?Never played EU V.
good, never do
>>2488344Mostly you build up RGOs in towns. It's different from vicky 3 in the sense that you're really managing individual towns instead of individual buildings, but you can micro on that level. Sometimes you also heavily minmax what your court wizards (cabinet) are doing especially when you're just recovering from war. Much like eu4 you spend basically all of your time just preparing for the next big war but the interwar period is a little more engaging than in that title.Newfag retard nigger is right though, don't play euv. It's not great.

The Teutonic Order just had a rebellion which intends to break off and join my vassal Lower Prussia which I made after the first Prussian-Lithuanian war, enabling me to go to war before my truce and with no real aggressive expansion cost. This mechanic was partly removed in 1.1 because of the bug in the next screenshot where the top level overlords did not get a choice on whether or not they wanted to join the war as the aggressor nation, even though they are technically the "defender' because they are on the side of the rebels.
didn't ask

Worst the estates can do is declare war on you in a civil war which your allies, LOYAL subjects, and personal unions will come rape to death for you.
>>2488364>The Teutonic Order just had a rebellion which intends to break off and join my vassal Lower PrussiaRealized I am completely wrong and it's actually that there's a nation breaking off of my vassal which intends to break off to the teutonic order, where neither I nor the teutons are war leaders lol, but instead our respective vassal nations.
Are you playing on an older version? In 1.3 the top level man is supposed to be the leader no? Or at least leading in the peace deals? cuz when i saw my discord gf play this she said in 1.2 those rebels would lead wars and then they would be war leaders and the peacedeal would be horrid blobbing meanwhile here we are non-horrid non-blobbed still but if the vassals are in charge of the peace deals who knows?walking through an empty hpuse mmmm.....m yeah....I'm thinking eu5 got the update alrighr
>my discord gf
>>2488380>in 1.2 those rebels would lead wars and then they would be war leaders and the peacedeal would be horrid blobbingYou can just change nations to the war leader and then propose peace and then tag back to your nation without unpausing lol. Even in multiplayer. It's not game breaking unless you're an ironman chud.>Are you playing on an older version?Yes I talked about this extensively, I'm in 1.0 right now seeing if it's as non laggy and PLAYABLE as I remember, and it is.
>laggyoh no hes a performance retardyoull LOVE the next version, they fucked up the warfare just for you
I have played eu5 and you are legitemately having a psychotic episode, I'm on 1.3.11 and it doesn't fucking happen you're just looking for reasons to bitch
not him, but i managed to make my pirated eu5 not lagthe first time i was giving eu5 a shot, when i was extracting the game's folder using winrar, a single file got corruptedi tried redoing the process a couple more times, but that file kept getting corrupted as i was extracting everythingso i ignored it and played the game and the game seemed to run fineuntil the game kept crashing to desktop at random times, i had to turn down the settings to make my pc to run it without crashingbut it still kept crashing, and then i ragequit not just because of the crashing but also because i suffered a stability hit (not to be confused with a pc hardware stability issue) to my empire when i declared war using a casus belli cbso then after deleting the game and doing other things for the next few weeks, i decided to go back and play eu5 againand this time when i went to extract the game folder, from the same zipped file, again did i suffer the problem of a single file (it was like a terrain.ini file or something like that) being corruptedso i went and pirated the game from a different source, and even used a different extracting program (7zip, not winrar) to extract the gamethis time i didn't get a corruption error on that file, but on ANOTHER file, weirdly enoughbut anyways, i decided to copy and paste the file from there that was missing(due to corruption error) in the other eu5, to the other eu5essentially i did heart transplant and made eu5 work without any more crash 'bug'thanks for reading my pirate blog
>>2488372they changed it
that, or the slavshitter variant is different
>>2488329>It's better to just no-cb unless you are suffering from extreme aggressive expansion in the region.i forgot to address this: it is impossible to no-cb a motherfucker when you are under the tatar yoke
>>2488397>eu5 not lag>and made eu5 work without any more crash 'bug'
Good morning /gsg/
>>2488416yes, when my eu5 was suffering from a persistent crash occurrence, it was crashing every 20 or so minutes in the first 15 in-game years and then every 10 minutes in the latter 10 years or soi don't think i ever made it past the 1360s
good morning you jap
>>2488424That's actually because of a bugged event with a mean time to tick, turn on monthly autosaves.
The Timurids can get 30% cavalry combat ability from their mission tree. They can also have both Aristocratic and Horde ideas.Absolutely no idea if mass cavalry is good but we are going to try it out.
>Imagine how scary it must have been to border the Timurids back in the day.do you know who timur was?after the osman sultan rebelled against him he put the sultan's wife and daughters into his harem while having the castrated sultan tend to his harem. he was absolutely a scary turkic savage, but after he died his dynasty lost their balls and died out>absolutely no idea if mass cavalry is goodmass cavalry is great, better than infantry but you have to have the economy to support it. against the ai a super strong army is an overkill so it's better to still mostly rely on infantry while having the income to build buildings that give you more money
>turn on monthly autosaves.holy shit, no thanks
and no that's not because of a bugged event, i no longer suffer crashes
all this bitching about ticks and other nonsense yet you're still playing the latest gsgJohann saved the day
who is complaining about ticks
me, they are a fucking blight and carry diseases
don't worry gamers, afterworld will bring ticks back
You know that you're a real demon when even the Ottoman armies are running away from yours.It turns out that +35% cavalry combat ability can defeat 15% discipline.
your mother also said i'm a real demon when i was pounding her nonstop last night

We are well and truly into the snowball phase of the campaign.The objective is to finish the Timurid mission tree and then form Yuan.I have been trade companying everything outside of Persia. This is amazing for money but it is really hurting my force limit. Usually it is the other way round.
why are you playing as cucumbers?
why would you form yuan when you can form mughals
I picked the mission that gives cheaper core creation but disallows forming Mughals. I have already played as the Mughals so I wanted to try something different.
let's be honest, would you rather rule over china or over india?
>>2488820I'd rather rule India without a shadow of a doubt. Any single thing you decide as ruler of india would have massive impact over an otherwise desolate land, with long reaching consequences. Whereas in china you'd have to deal with an entrenched ruling elite, some of whom would be people smarter than you. Quality of life would be higher as the ruler of china, and you could always insulate yourself from the people's problems and fuck your harem for 80 years and nothing bad would come of it, though. So there are some upsides.
my dear replyfag, in china as well you can get to a state where whatever you say goeshave you heard of "queue"?
how the fuck is india desolate?????

Nobody replied to my request for hints and/or judgements, so I had to use my own.Going by vicky rules, it's accepted culture so it's not blobbing. Had to take the rest so borders don't look awful. I'll distribute these betweeen vassals momentarly, for now i want to at least try that "hint" someone said yesterday about leaving conquered land like this so pops migrate to your capital. I put "hint" in quotes because i doubt it works.
what are ur accepted cultures? you should unite them all instead of blobbing into finland/ireland
>Nobody replied to my request for hints and/or judgements, so I had to use my own.you never check your responses anyways you polish gaynigger from outer space
questions answered in the next postI can't use the actual expel people action but, nevertheless, people are indeed migrating to my settlements. I'll see if this makes a sizable difference.Now, as for Denmark... I do "need" to secure the strait now that they revoke my sound toll exception, it's serious trade money... but... an opportunity presented itself... I don't really know why I'm allowed to do this so easly, it seems like it should be more expensive, but... well... the option is here... This would mark the final fiefdom/vassal we take, surely... But should I..? no... yes? no...
have you tried playing a better game?
answer this question: why are you gay?
>what are ur accepted cultures?Both the "Polish" cultures, Silesian, Mazovian and Kashubian. I also tolerate Prussian because they are a large minority in my northern cores, and Askhenazi for no real reason other than I start with them as tolerated and i never bothered revoking it. If I do downgrade the jews to discriminated status I might squeeze 1 more culture in there if it's fellow slavs, but I don't really want to at the moment because so far all of my accepted cultures are Polish proper, that is, they speak the Polish language. Might accept Sorbian or something, we'll see.>ou should unite them all instead of blobbing into finland/irelandAs for rightfully Polish people outside of our borders, other than small minorities not worth bothering with, only populations are the Kashubs in eastern Brandenburg and Wolgast, some Greater Polish men in Brandenburg again and, well, most of Silesia (Bohemian controlled)Bohemia is on a truce timer, working on a CB as we speak. Can't declare on anyone in the HRE since that would bring in Bohemia and their allies as well, and I can barely beat them with Hungary's help, or at least that's how it was last time. Working on it, I assure you.>you never check I do, I sometimes miss stuff but I do check trust me :( I'll do better in the future though, you're right.>have you tried playing a better game?yeah I beat all of the historic battles in Shogun 2 recently, but this game is hardly bad.>answer this question: why are you gay?>>>/gif/31173802
>But should I..? no... yes? no...everyone it gives antagonism to is already a rival of yours, blobhemia needs to be contained and thus attacked on cooldown. do it or no balls, take all that shit THEN chill. but actually chill after this for fuck's sake
don't...antagonism multiplies further antagonism, doing this means you forefit any chance at cordial relations with your neighbours for like 100 years...
antagonism begets further antagonismvery poetic johan
yea puppeting denmark is a massive waste of ae, the strait money is negligible in the first place
why does he want to take the strait if he's gay?
you guys keep bitching aobout blobbing but when he asks if he should blob or not you're 50/50 on it i dont get it why the bitching? seems like bro should blob harder if anythingTHAT SAID i wouldn't take over denmark if i were you in this situation simply because they're not the main target so you get a +25% mutiplier to antagonism generatedis that so bad? idk honestly, they're additive multipliers so it's not that much, now that i think about it im not entirely sure what the right play is honestly, you do you
do it or no balls>muh antagonismwho cares lol oh no you'll fight a coalition big dealeveryone that will hate you on the list will seethe anyway lol
Fuck it, I'm indecicive and so is the thread.I'll go by the results of the poll, tomorrow. We sure made progress today.
>indecicive
ok eu4 pros, what's the best option here?me, i know what i'm picking
middle duh
how is it duh? it's just 6 extra ebin winged hussars and -20% fire damage on themsure, that -20% fire damage received stacks nicely with full drill for a total of -45%, but it's just fire damage and it's just on winged hussars, which are still gonna account for less than 10% of my force limitme, i'm taking the bottom one for full cavalry armies
first option would actually be interesting to get rid of drill loss whatsoever, but -83% is good enough
well, unless his goal is to solo europe 1v99 for an out of universe reason of dick measuring contest, i don't see why would anyone field a hecking full mlp army when that force limit and money could go to artillery for filling the back rank and getting a faster siege in game literally titled WaitingForSieges4
^ he's right you know
ill be the only one to post NOT poland fuck you https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1sJnofcxM4c
it'd be a full global rule 15 army only in the front row obviously, artillery is of course important, especially since i'm about to pick up a policy from infra-offensive that gives me +2 artillery lvls vs fort, but my siege ability is really good already from inno-offensivealso this is all mostly hypothetical because ottomans already fear me

I was wondering why Oirat wasn't sacking a 0 mandate Ming. It turns out that they are 4 military techs behind.Time to accomplish what Timur could not.
>>2488931In that version of the game you need to blow prestige on hating other cultures WHILE still tolerating them, you right click the checkmarks or equals sign to change your cultures opinion of their culture and it causes prestige each time you do it. There are no downsides and it makes those cultures convert much much faster, and as a result they'll assimilate sooner. You need to startwith kashubian because you accept them even though they have a low opinion of you, so they will be taking up the most cultural capacity. As your primary pop culture grows substantially it will lower the culture cost of ALL OTHER pops, which makes it comically easy to accept new ones, down to a minimum of 0.15 which, unless a cultural is more than 1% of your empire at that point, you should then drop below accepted and tolerated until they are finally all assimilated. You can do this even in non cores and migration will mostly take care of it all for you.
Cavalry get +0.5 fire at tech 11. Infantry have about 0.8 fire at the same tech.So is it theoretically possible to have cavalry be better at the fire phase than infantry if you stack enough combat ability?
yesthere's even precedent

first of all, there's a significant difference between using land to feed your people and using your land to support a device that's only good for creating funny videos of cats dancingsecond of all the water ecosystem is much different in europe where drinking water comes primarily from rivers and the water used eventually ends up back in the rivers via the water cycle. meanwhile the arid shitholes that white man was never meant to live in rely a lot on aquifers for drinking water. and the short story about aquifers and artesian wells is that they have a certain amount of water that when it will run out will render the arid shithole that relies on it completely uninhabitable because it will not have drinking waterthey are slowly but surely genociding themselves

it's on ext.toit honestly makes gladiator ii look good in comparison. i never read the og story so can't comment on the writing but visual-wise, ancient troy/greek cities and architecture look so AI and pixelated, and everyone wears outfit and armor with a precision that's only possible if they're made with modern manufactory. i swear jewlywood intentionally shit out shit historical epics so we collectively stop thinking about them, and at worst hate them

but fallout 4 happens 250 years after the warthat's like saying ck2 is a post apocalyptic game

^ what is this guy's problem with ck2? ^
>and armor with a precision that's only possible if they're made with modern manufactoryof all the things wrong with "our bronze age is collapsing" you choose armor quality of manufacture? yes, it looks bad, like it's made out of plastic. yes, it's uniform among whole unitsbut made with precision? you shouldn't be able to tell at the distances the film was shot at
>what post apo films have they even made in the last 10 years?not going to contain myself to things within the last 10 yearsjust uhhhnot including book of eliit's not even just movies, it's shows and videogamesall the zombie slop out therethe walking dead (which i don't hate, i enjoyed the source material and the show)resident evil moviesshit i can't even think of right nowpriest
i'm no metallurgist or smith but wouldn't bronze armour be exceptionally uniform considering you make bronze shit by pouring it into a mould? as opposed to iron which you have to hit with a hammer for it to be the right shape?
i really don't understandwe haven't had that many post-apo films, which is why i asked you to mention them. btw i didn't watch the walking deadi also yearn for good post apo games, of which we haven't had that many either. i really liked dying light which i think was an amazing zombie game, but not much more than that. yes, there were shit games, but it's easy to ignore them when you have good games to play15the laestrygonians had iron armor, including the fucking child that was out for a stroll for some reasoni wonder what did the author mean by this
you can't cast any metal into a thin sheet like a breastplate would require, let alone a helmet or a greave, it has to be hammered into a flat sheet either wayi don't know what that guy meant by uniformity so i'm not disagreeing with either of you just pointing out metallurgical factst. engineer
I'm seething, I want to enjoy being a coloniser in EU4 but it's actual cock and ball torture, I feel like I have to be everywhere all at once. Rebellion that's been put down? Get raped by some Indonesians revolting, sick back to Europe, psyche, there's now Animalist rebels, psyche, there's now peasants in California that isn't merging with Colonial California, woops there's now rebels in Amsterdam, Dutch Mexico? It just collapsed under it's own weight (entirely my fault on that one I won't lie)But how the fuck do you actually deal with this? This isn't a joke, I feel like when it comes to dealing with Empire there's just too many things for one person to manage. Maybe I like my Land empires because everything is in my peripheral vision.
do you not have -100% native revolt chance in colonies?
N...No... I don't know how to get that. Colonialism in EU4 is new to me, normally play as Russia, Prussia or Italy.
you know those 3 colonial policies? you need to pick one when you first start a colony? one of them gives u -100%, what it does should be obviousprivlidges to the estatres also give some and some mission trees or whatever also give some reduction-100% is obviously highly desirable because it means you dont need to garrison themhaving said that, new world provinces arent THAT populated so you can just leave 2k troops on a colonial province and move them whenever you get a new colony simple as
The new colonies I don't have an issue with per se. I had the co-habilitation(?) policy with the estate policy to lower it furtherThe issues in the colonies were, separatists, i.e. England's former colonies, Mexican minors etc, peasant rebellions in the far far stretches, animists and other rebel pops that I'd then need to steer X number of troops to Y place at each of the four corners of the earth. Maybe that's just over extension (physical not modifier) but it felt like a cruel joke where one would pop up in California, then Amsterdam, then Indonesia then Peru etc. Should split the fleets some more or something like that, but I'm starting to get actual stress headaches from seeing and hearing the rebel pop noise so much in 5 years.
see these 3 buttons? what that guy saidthe meta is the middle button for native assimilation, which just gives you goods produced based on the amount of natives present, and then taking the clergy privilege that gives you another -50% native uprising chance for a total of -100% so you don't have to ever ben garrison your colonies, much less micro that way
mexican minors...
its not exactly rocket science, i fyou conquer natives you have to put down revolts until your colonies are strongfor the ones you only colonise empty land you can safely ignorenot that deepif you want to play truly stable colonies go play 1.20 or something lol
>65Yeah I'll do that next time, so goes my larp of White Dutch colonies...But again, it's not the native uprings, it's more just a crazy amount of rebel pop spawn across my ENTIRE empire, not just the colonies.The issue with colonies is the tribes ganking my shitter colonial nations 0.01ms after they spawn and finding them insanely weaker than the other colonies that eventually appear. >68^^^
can't you just garrison your african and indian possessions with a transport fleet nearby to move your troops where they're needed?you do build forts for zone of control everywhere, right?
this is what your country should look like, it also provides you with army tradition
>72Yeah I need to split my transport fleets up some more was the lesson from this most recent campaign. Had too many troops in one place, whilst I had the troop cap to make more... I don't know, I should have just played better.
ok but where's the screenshots?also force limit is just a suggestion if you have the money and you should ahve the money you're a colonizer
isn't it funny how you can field an army of 200k even if your max manpower is 50k in eu4 as long as you don't take too many loses?
I'll be honest I'm too ashamed to even post the playthrough. It's not bad, it's not over, I'm just done with it, I'll play again and play better next time.
something tells me you didn't even play the game, just wanted to shitpost
Fine here
>i really don't understand>we haven't had that many post-apo films, which is why i asked you to mention them.there were others, i just can't think of them right nowi remember there was one with arnold schwarzenegger of all actors, lmaohttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maggie_(film)movie was fucking garbagei'm pretty sure i remember a viggo mortensen one, toohttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Road_(2009_film)there ya go, two more lackluster movies that contributed to my post-apocalypse fatiguethe trope was tiring even back theni'd imagine the contributors to the trope are even shittier now since the trope is so tread upon like an old granny prostitute
when i play a colonial game (which i hate doing) i make stacks of 4k with 4 transports to move province to province
I wonder what Genghis would think.
>make a disjointed mess of nordamerikan colonies>gun strait for the spice islands while getting beaten to zuidafrika, the dutch colonial crown>take random provinces in mexico>is surprised he can't garrison them allbro you're supposed to create a strong colonial nation that can fend for itself and can attack natives and other colonial nations, not create small colonial nations that need babysittingand as for the old world i thought you owned the whole african and indian coastline that you had problems with defending, not a total amount of 3 provinces that you should be able to garrison with ease
in liqqy 2 i keep 30k stacks in key colonial provinces with 10 transports docked at all times to squash rebellions can't you do that in eu4?
>84I'll actually do that from here onEnough for natives, not bad when it comes to the troop cap.>86As I said, Mexico all but collapsed. With North America, I made the nations and they just got ganked by natives, fabricated the wargoals to push them back, but even then they couldn't even get 2k troops out even with gifts, subsidies etc.
Mexico used to look like [sic]
who's the green cunt?
Native Federation that ganked Dutch California the second it spawned.Should have taken it out, but my navy was in Europe and I didn't want to go all the way to the pacific.
good old 30k stacksi havent been the same since i stopped doing 4-1-5, 5-1-4 just feels wrongand using minoritties as infantry cannon fodder, no other game lets you do that
bro, your engineers?
this is the power of +50% cavalry power
vgh.....
>>2489552The real answer is you give 2 ducats of subsidies a month to every colony and that fixes the entire problem cause AI can't handle eco but it can if you give it 2 ducats of tolerance that it doesn't count towards it's personal income.>>2489613Anon why the fuck do you have 8k cannons ALL in the front row? Add more horsies.
wtf do you mean cannons in the front rowthat's an 18k front row and an 8k backrow of artillery
>>2489843combat width is 25 at mil tech 9 so no the fuck it ain't. You've got cannons in the front row.
cannons deploy in the back row, even if your stack width is below combat width brotake a look at a battle sometime
>>2489845Dearest bot: The wiki.Artillery not only fight in battles like infantry and cavalry but also speed up Fort level.png sieges. Artillery has a base flanking range of 2 and costs 3 times as much as infantry.Unlike infantry or cavalry, artillery can fight from the back-row, attacking with 50% of their combat power. From tech 16 artillery starts becoming the most valuable unit in the game when artillery fire jumps by a full +1. Additionally, artillery regiments bestow half (rounded down) of their defensive Shock/Fire/Morale pips to the regiment in front of them. As of 1.35, this effect implies that artillery starts providing this bonus as from military technology 10, assuming the player has chosen the more defense-oriented of the two available artillery models. However, Artillery takes double damage when attacked (if it gets moved to front rank).
>>2489847Hence artillery are best used to provide supporting fire from the second line and it's necessary to have more units in the front row (infantry and cavalry) to ensure the artillery back line always stays 'protected'.https://eu4.paradoxwikis.com/Land_warfare#Combat_widthhttps://eu4.paradoxwikis.com/Land_units#Cost_3And of course, the classic video that got arumba removed as a paradox sponsor which unequivocally proves you wronghttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h-62B7GiwDw
>SAARRRR I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY DO MY CANNONS NOT WORK SAAARRRRRRR I CANNOT READ!!!the absolute state of johans shills in 2026
why is this guy in meltdown mode????
>>2489855Even under that circumstance you're still getting more bang for your buck with horses because of how expensive artillery are. The enemy are able to directly attack your economy if they have cannons of their own while you're not meeting combat width. You can strike at their cannons yourself from the sides if you have a shitload of cav, which is the cav usecase. If you have massive fuckass cavalry buffs you have to be filling the combat width+2 (or whatever your flanking range is) before you can even consider cannons.
horsies don't help me siege constantinople faster and i already win battles so why do i need more poweralso are you gonna explain your chimpout?
>>2489863>so why do i need more powerYou don't, but the cannons in every stack are a waste of money. Optimally, you want separate cannon stacks that avoid enemies while you march around and rape enemies with your horsies and then you bring in the cannons to take down their forts after all the fighting is done.>SAARRR YOU ARE CHIMPING BECAUSE I AM RETARDED AND CAN'T READ!!!idk what to tell you, maybe try being less brown.
>>2489866You'd have more money for more stacks if you were wiping them out more cost effectively with your horses. Otherwise you should have taken quantity for a higher force limit if eco is not the problem but manpower and forcelimit is. I'm sure there's also something to be said for your policy choices as a consequence of that.
bro, i'm not wiping them out, their armies are literally hiding. they're scared of my stacksthat's the power of inno-offensive67but i want to :(
the best army composition in late game eu4 is 40 infantry + 40 artillery>cost efficient>fastest sieging ability>inf being better than cav by default even when the cav is having all the stacked combat modifiers possible
time for a nap
>>2489874>erm here's the best army comp not including what WE ARE LOOKING AT which is the polish army
persiums is also a cav-focused nation like poland
don't you persia mecall me by my real name, aryanistan
it's the best army composition for any nation in late game eu4 you nonce never reply to me ever again
is it though?
cavalry is better than infantry, ceteris paribus
imagine if there was an estate that just gave you +20% infantry combat ability and -20% infantry cost for free...
I was trying to take the Mandate of Heaven from Ming but it turns out you need to be an eastern religion.Wiki says that I need to let religious rebels break my country. Is there truly no other way?I am playing as Sunni Timurids.
The Russian Boyar estate can give +15% infantry combat ability which is kind of epic. Their mission tree also gives +5% discipline.
yeah but what if i don't want my kang to die in battle?
You can just keep your ruler in an army away from the homefront.
>>2489919They don't need to break your country, just to enforce demands.There are other ways, but they're either janky at best or inconsistent. or both
I meant in the homefront and away from the battlefield.The infantry combat ability effects all units and not just the ruler's army.
yeah but general death pulse is kicks in earlier than ruler death pulse in eu4 for some reasonso just making him a general and not even assigning him to an army will make him die quicker
fnuuy because the cavalry equivalent of that policy gives more bonuses
The Timurids mission tree can provide +35% cavalry combat ability.You can also get a +10% artillery combat ability on top of that.

In fact, next thing i'll do is i'll reduce the number of subject Poland has. You'll see.Meanwhile, place your bets everyone. It really is anybody's game, France has lower morale on the flanks but a stronger centre and still a few reinforcements at the back, but will those be enough?
*builds a liquor factory**demand for chasers skyrockets*
Another battle that Poland should've thought instead of the Hungarians, sadly they are taking all the glory and thus taking money isn't an option.While taking all this glory, it has come to our attention... The King is dead, long live the King. Can we please have a moment of silence?The new king, Karol, inherits a lot. Three loans, (Poland quickly paid off two just to avoid the embarassment), a mess of an internatl policy and, is it a surprise, he doesn't care. His home, like his Father's, is Hungary, he's not even reading this eulogy, whatever, we'll be fine.
you didnt address my point

what point? huh? sorry, too busy playing liquoria 5
people who pay not for the paradox games don't realize how much of a condemnation awaits them in death
he wasnt memeing
Peace in our time! In March of 1374 a historic treaty is proposed, one that will finally put an end to this conflict as the last major power in what is officially the Poland-Munster conflict, but onofficially the West Volhynian Independence Coalition, capitulates. The shrewed queen of Norway negotiated a peacedeal that is measured, not "full". Poland gets a token amount of money, duly earned war reperations to the cost of 1 (ONE!) ducat per month, all of the rights that the troops need in order to leave peacefully, and a guarantee that Norway will annul all traties with the kingdom of England. Though the heir to the throne will be of the same dynasty as the one on the throne of England, in an attempt to please the Hungarians, this peacedeal attempts to prevent another such power bloc to form between two major european powers. All of this just so the Polish populace can be as weary of the new king as of the old. Something HAS to be done, but there are always more pressing matters... Oh, and one more thing, all of that wasn't quite enough to get the peacedeal going, so something a little extra was thrown into the mix... I promised no more fiefdoms, but... The new subject is no fiefdom, no vassal, it's a Dominion(tm), a subject that is, in principle, oathbound to spread the Polish culture and faith. The island of Iceland will no doubt serve as a great vacation spot for our nobility, once the local populace learns proper customs. A true long term project.When "peace in our time" was announced, there was still the matter of the little subjects to be finalised. Without major powers to back them up, the three tiny countries in the british isles will capitulate to any reasonable demand. What should our reasonable demands be?
how long has this fag been playing as he's not even in 1400s yeteu5 is definitely a medieval game
which ideas did they pick
horde
Scotland can stand to be punished from this war, for getting involved in the first place, for blocading Polish ports (something they are still doing right now), and for refusing to sign a separate peace treaty. (I'd be fine with just war reparations)Munster is actually willing to give out a lot of scotland. The only part that I'd consider would be Dumfries and the surrounding coastline. What this would do is "fix" bordergore (a vassal would be created and trasferred to Iceland to administrate) and give "us" a large population centre for almost free, meaning about a year's worth of antagonism with relevant countries in in Europe. But... I mean, would this really be a good thing? An indep. Dumpfries state? Let me know what you think.Clanridarde, idk if I spell that correctly, is ruled by a pest and the state itself is a pest on the Irish people. Breaking it apart and humiliating them should be welcome and demonstrate good will. They need a little more convincing but I bet 1 more occupation and standing on their capital would do it.Munster itself gets off for free, using the "threaten war" CB means they can't be a tributary and vassalising them for Iceland is... idk, might do it, it's actally kind of free also. Let me know what your thoughts are on this. There is the chance that this is totally unfounded blobbing and I should just peace out for money and be done with it. >le 1400i'm getting there, just let this war end, next one will be easy and non-controversial

*sigh* whatever... just... whatever, get me out of this war, there's more important shit to do... *sigh* like... managing this.Can't declare bohemia to be a rival because of that (bugged) HRE interaction from earlier. Any way to fix this? How does one lower their own opinion of a country?
you send an insultthat's how you lower their opinion of youi had to learn this the hard way, as declaring war on a motherfucker without having a relations that wasn't so positive gave me a severe stability hit
and actually, i'm not entirely sure of this, but i think you can keep on sending insults so long as you wait for your diplomat to return every month, stacking the amount of dislike
>irish iberianfake
Insult sent, another one will be sent as soon as I have a diplomat.In the meantime, Poland is enjoying some well deserved (though unplanned for) peacetime. This could be interpreted as a calm before the storm as the truce with Bohemia expires, or as exactly what it seems like. Stopped paying for stability, economy doesn't look that bad now.Tried to do the culture thing one anon said yesterday, should help with assimilation, sure... but honestly I kind of need the prestige right now for the antagonism decay. Will do this in the future though.Depopulation of the conquered frontier is a mixed bag. It looks impressive on the population mapmode but when you actually check how many people are moving out, it's like 2 pops a month per province. Eh. I'll stick with handing out land to vassals for now.Poland's ambition is finally reached. The king is, thankfully, far away, as he is less than an ideal influence for the majesty of this catholic nation. The first slavic nation to host a cardinal seat.
>anyhumanever.comis it true that half your kids would die before becoming an adult before the industrial revolution era advancements in health?
In true catholic fashion, we have to pay for the privelidge of course. Insulting multiple times does NOT stack so i need another way of lowering relations by 30.Gave the mazovian culture land to the mazovian culture vassal, seems fitting, though the borders are... off. This is just what the state borders are, sorry for the tumor, will fix it any second I thought. I was looking at this funny little war here, thought oh how quaint.and then...
What the fuck am I looking at? What the fuck is this? The new king is way worse than the last, Hungarian domination over Polish politics needs to end, like, now.

>>2490284The real reason is because paradox didn't know how their game worked, I believe because the developer who actually designed the cavalry/cannon/infantry combat systems left around 1.25. They called Arumba's behavior in the video 'disrespectful'. In the video, tl;dr, he mathematically proves that cavalry are never worth taking unless you meet one of the following conditions1. You're playing a horde2. You're playing poland or a nation with similarly strong ideas3. Very early game brandenburg type nations where you need to absolutely maximize force limit to annex nations and where going above force limit would bankrupt you faster than cavalry.Because if you're allowing enemies to deal damage to your cavalry while not meeting the infantry combat width and using full cannons, you're wasting your time, since cavalry don't get a bonus to dealing damage while flanking, they do the same amount while flanking as infantry, but cavalry ALSO don't move inwards.

dear diary:i saw a reinforcement army out of position and main army marching on my own reinforcementsi made the reinforcements march into the mountains then disbanded them after the main enemy army was going therei then attacked the reinforcement army and wiped them within 1 dayall of this made possible due to the hour tick systemin eu4 this would take at least a month or two with the battle lasting multiple weeksin eu5... well... until the next update...
I go into (lead my vassal swarm into) a battle, this battle de facto forces my ally to join the fight. this will take two days, in the meantime our people (vassals, largely pagan scum to be fair) are fighting and dying en massethis takes a realistic amount of time (two days)in 1.4, this will either take a week, or will happen so fast it's impossible to micro for a human not pausing every tickbut at least we pleased youtubers who speed 7 through everything for content :)By the way, you'll notice that due to that inflation reduction event (the other option would give even more), our income is back in the toilet, but our money is still growing. all of that is looting. nice
your income is in the toilet because your spending on stab when you dont have to why dont you just abuse the commoners for 20 stab
how would you feel if someone abused you for 20 stab?
glad to hear that our resident tranny is an hourly ticks chadat least one part of your brain is healthy
Because I already did that and I want my stab to be above 0 ASAP. Pictured, more abuse, this time for money.More importantly, the nobilty has chosen to expand the iron mines of Częstochowa, something you might remember happened IRL if you've been paying attention.Hungary stole our valour in that battle. Whatever.
>heed their advice>event option>we lose 20.00 stabhnnnnnggghh motherfuckerwhat was the other option? do you remember?damn what a bad a hiti hate stab hits, stability is hard to build up and i only spend it on changing laws and taking privileges
what a bad hit*
*sights a comet*
*sees your mom in the sky*holy shit she's fat
*gains overextension*
why were you even minting shitdoes it really hurt your income that much if you stop minting and instead put the slider to kill your inflation
cool it with the antisemitism
>what was the other option? do you remember?Printing more money, which grants 4 additional % of inflationCould be worse, at least there was a positive and a negative aspect to it.By the way, i had a cardinal for less than a month, just arrived, and i already got penalised for not siding in this squabble. Lesson learned, sided, sorry. Picked France because my one vote is hardly going to change much so I might as well side with the winner.I feel like I'm not covering this war really well, sieging down Lviv, defeated the Volhynian army, with Hungarian and Moldovian help, but the southern front is collapsing. Hungary marched to deal with it, lost one battle, regrouped and the armies are just going past each other at this point. I disbanded most of the polish troops, less than 2000 polish peasants are still deployed, their time is money and better spent toiling in the fields.
>Printing more money, which grants 4 additional % of inflationdoesn't sound like a big fucking deal, something you could undo just by stop minting for a couple yearswhereas gaining 20 stability back is going to take you maybe 7-12 years, and your previous stability was already barely mid
stability is whateverearly game you should keep if floating, i used to do this strat of sitting on low to abuse the decay for revoking privileges but its better to just tax the nobles with medium stab and inflate them away with city growthso you just float itwhen youre economically strong you can spend on it to make estates loyal so you can safely revoke and have even happier peasants
happier peasants? just enserf them
I simply lack the willpower to conquer the world.

The Papal state has been somehow called into this conflict and are landing troops (they got wiped offscreen moments later because they're not reinforced in any way)Other than that the war is going slowly going like this with backcapping the crimean steppe by yours truly and hungarians taking all credit. I think we're just waiting for the occupation of Lviv to finalise and the fort to fall. Check this out, i put 32 men on a different fort... and they actually sally out to kill them. pretty cool.
why are country names in english but sea names in german?
In order to invade France, England had to cross the Deutsche Channel.
it's called la manche, chud
its a map skin, they make one for every dlc and i was playing prubia in the previous game so i had to german (technically austrian, the art is depicting austria, its pretty beautiful but you cant see it here)i like the japanese one a lot because of its warm colour, sadly theres no greek one

>why are country names in english but sea names in german?...are they? bottom pic, no they're not? oh, in memegame3... i see...well anyway, >doesn't sound like a big fucking deal, something you could undo just by stop minting for a couple yearsyeah and that's serious money i'd miss out on. the polish economy is hardly wonderful.stability isn't that important in the positive, it gives you pop promotion speed and whatever else i forgot but nothing cruicial, but NEGATIVE stability is a serious detriment since estates hate you for it. (pictured earlier actually)the polish clergy made us both drain our treasury for their building AND pressured us into dropping stability slightly. Oh well.At 100%, hopefully the war is over soon... I'm still scared of a coalition forming or Bohemia declaring on Poland (it says they desire war, have -200 relations and have a CB) so I'm fabricating a humiliate rival on Austria, which would call Bohemia in. I know that's a lot and it'd end up just being money + war reps, but i think austria can be bumrushed easly enough for them to accept white peace if it looks like a bad battle is incoming. idk if i'll actually do it since...
>memegame3the sissy poster has finally shown his true colors
are you gonna subjugate moldavia and make clean borders
...since the hungarian army has taken heavy losses this war, something we could use.>are you gonna subjugate moldavia it's complicated. poland has events for subjegating them, i need to border them first, which will take a while, and i'd have to look at that again. they will definitely be under polish rule one way or another because >and make clean borderseventually, that's the plan yes. And yeah i will clean up that tumor on poland's eastern border, that whole thing was a test setup to see if what one anon said made any sense, namely that if i leave uncored territory like that pops will just migrate to my good lands and, eh, they are migrating but one at a time, it's pretty slow and IMO not worth the downsides. but yeah, the hungarian army is somewhat devastated, lower than ours at this point. building spy network, hopefully i'll manage to get the "claim seniority" over the personal union CB while they're still weakened, but I don't think that's fast enough, they're licking wounds while our troops barely fought, that's why it looks like Poland is ahead. Might have to declare on austria to weaken them one more time and hope Bohemia doesn't go after Poland too hard and focuses on Hungary while I bait them into doing most of the fighting, but that's risky in of itself, since if we lose troops during the war we've completely negated our advantage, and the war still needs to be won. IDK we'll se.The peacedeal is basically: a LOT of land goes to hungary, Halych pays hungary war reps, Halych annulls all treaties with serbia and wallachia (they have no allies now). It's like this in large part because I wanted to expand there so I rushed to occupy them and never trnasferred occupation :) though they could have taken the eastern half and given it to Moldavia.cont.
Unrelated image from my immersion visit to Czestochowa, look at the borders of the vassal of Łomża, it's almost exactly like the one I made in game, but before I gave them that newly conquered lithuanian tumor in the south, whoopsie :3Anyway, some of it is their cores, some of it is Bosnian cores (formelly a hungarian vassal, we even fought a war over it, with many polish casualties...) and some of it are Croatian cores, which feels like a real scummy move considering it's thier ("our") PU. Definitely reutrning that to Croatia if I get the chance.Didn't show it earlier because I didn't think it'd be relevant, Bohemia cought our spy. This means that we can actually, finally, announce them as rival. Sadly the spy network remaining is less than 20 so no luck getting a CB on them directly, either austria gets called in or we wait longer, which desu doesn't sound that bad since the coalition has yet to form so maybe it won't.So going forward the plan is to either:>just fabricate the hungarian CB and attack them, even though they'll recover a lot of their troops in the meantime>declare on austria in the meantime and use the hungarians as cannon fodder, get whatever money we can out of them and bohemia in the process>wait somewhat longer to fabricate on bohemia directlyWith that open question, I leave you be.

The real answer is that I fucked up by not preparing for the Great Pestilence btw (delayed my plan to grab a bunch of tribal land before settling by like 50 years.) I'm gonna try my hand at another Haida game eventually but it kind of killed my motivation to continue the run

what religion feels appropriate for japan other than shinto? protestant might do it but idk, doesn't feel right considering it failed massively there and the whole stomping on jesus thing is in their culture. islam is kind of a meme. what else? i dont like shinto ever since i saw this image
roman catholicism
being force converted into tengri under ainu yoke
why do you specifiy roman catholicism as though any of these games make a distinction between them and whatever else
because that's what it's called
because catholic just means "universal" (as in globohomo) so every church trying vying for the seat of "one true church with the REAL apostolic tradition" (eastern orthodox, anglican ect.) do officially have "catholic" either in their name or in some document somewhere, it's just not part of common parlons
>what religion feels appropriate for japan other than shinto?vajrayana buddhism
follow the tengu traditions and convert to judaism
bhuddhism isnt a religion
yet in eu4 even confucianism is a religion
legalism is a religion

hi just wanted to say i have this in my downloadsdont remember what the context was or why i saved it, does anyone remember?paradox is not a billion dollar company and more importantly, yes, the problem is the fact that you're trying to run a modern game that just recently came out on a craptop from 2009 and are expecting top level performance
>vgh... can one do anything with this information in imperator?yes you can do a mega campaign as athens where you restore alexander's empire and then you split from the athenian empire in the east and let the ai athenian empire deal with the roman empire and you create an epic greco-buddhist empire in the east that stretches all the way to beijing and then you have the roman empire, the athenian empire, and the greco-buddhist empire on the map and it would make for one epic screenshot that you could share with all your gsg buddies.at least thats my campaign idea that i will do some day.pic related, a vajra on an ancient greek coin from epirus

>and in all other instances in the world the north is richer and more civilized than the south>see germany, italy, spain, usa, egypt, yugoslaviacounterexamples: scotland, sweden, norway, finland, russia kind of (the richest is actually their north-middle), denmark (greenland), canada>but that's cheating because their northern posessions are wastelands nobody lives infair, real examples would be england, south africa and as I understand it Brazil.
imagine sankt petersburg, but built right outside of moscow
brazil doesn't count because they're in the southern hemisphere and things work differently therealso zuidafrika is a mess, while it still wasn't a mess it was johannesburg, not kaapstadt, that was the pearl, which is in the north actually
today i learned: south africa is in the northern hemisphere, unlike brazil, which is wholly in the southern hemisphere
im not sure but i would guess slovakia is richer south to north as well
yo momma so fat she's present in both hemispheres

>counteraxmples: scotlandlol retard detected, north eastern scotland is the fourth wealthiest region in the uk, just behind central london and "berks, bucks & oxfordshire". aberdeen itself is wealthier than everywhere in scotland bar edinburgh, and southern scotland is the poorest region in the uk.>denmark (greenland)you might as well say "england (scotland)", genuine retard

what does that have to do with anything
ugh the famously wealthy parts of usa... texas and flora... their industrial centres let the south win the war of northern aggression...
>aberdeennot the north of scotland
i suppose the region called "north east scotland" is really in the south west, as far as you're concerned?
it's more east than north
Okay, so, what to do with this tumor in the east? the meme of "just let them migrate" is too slow and the low control tanks my reaserch more than this helps. I wanted to give this land to volhynia so it eventually (eventually) becomes Polish but I doubt this will happen soon if I do it like this. I also don't want to overwhelm the vassal becasue they will likely stop culture converting and start coring + converting (to catholicism) which ruins my mojo here. The solution would be, I think, hope that after they convert from orthodox they go back to converting culture, and when they hit 50% in eastern volhynia i force move their capital to to force them to move their capital to Brest-Livostok (black circle) and that'll prompt them to do that for that region as well. The region nextdoor is a complete shithole, honestly doesn't matter what happens there, so I'm thinking I create another vassal there and then transfer it to Volhynia as a vassal, they'll annex them at some point, whenever that may be.Do you like this plan? Let me know.
will scientists ever find out where waldo is
he's in tel aviv
yeah sounds good, like you said that region is completely irrelevant so really it doesn't matter
tel aviv is relevant doe

i member when he first told you to take knib and here you are still not even bordering them
Halych just allied them man, trust the plan, when the truce is up, war is coming.IN THE MEANTIME, more important things happen, the polish minority in Brandenburg is being genocided. They just allied Bohemia, idk if you want to look at this as killing two birds with one stone or as simply a bad idea and stacking the odds against myself, I'm going in ASAP.I think the best solution here is porbably parliment CB honestly. Lowering noble tax to get like 1% more support, hope we clutch it.
all of the noble proposals were terrible so there, another cathedral, hopefully to fill another cardinal seat.War declaration next month. Declared on tha shitter in ireland as a way to minmax, so all the vassals raise troops early. Let's hope hungry pulls their weight here.
that has nothing to do with eu5 you offtopic shitter
hes never gonna blobe
war posponed 2 months epic
guys he meant irl months
Relax... take it easy...Millions will die.
please blob all of silesia
it's not blobbing if it's your ancestral homeland
^ uneducated remark
Our vassal succesfully defeated Ceasar's Legion.Meanwhile, our own troops aren't doing quite so well, they need to hold out for the reinforcements, Will they?
no it's true he should go conquer sarmatia, it's his birthright
Notice how few days have actually passed on the clock and how dire the war situation is.Without hour ticks, we will lose this.
>Ceasar's Legionave, true to kaiser
the reinforcements arrived maybe not just in time, earlier would've been better, but they were enough to save the day.I would've shown the battle but I got distracted by uh, this. I recognise the name, as should you, but uh... why do i need to know about this guy?distant cousin apparantly?
>take over silesiaI really really really want to but you have to understand, that shit is expensive! and bohemia is a tough opponent, I'm hoping to knock them out for war reps here, I have my hands full as is.Also, Silesia is safe, it's in the hands of silesian culture vassals who are investing into themselves. Meanwhile, Poles (and kashubs) are being genocided in Brandenburg, if I don't blob there not they will all be speaking german.
see this is the problem with paradox gamesirl lithuania can blob all over huwhite ruthenia and ukraine in 1 generation yet g-d forbid poland takes silesia and a bit of the baltic coastline
so creamapi no longer works?V3 is unplayable without DLCs, especially the companies one
you don't need creamapi to play a game
Eh, the reason I can't blob into Silesia is because it's in the HRE, ruthenia doesn't have this problem.My problems are: The bohemian army being way bigger than mine, the Hungarian army doing fuck all, vassals being less than useless and most importantly the HRE emperor having superpowers and being able to call random HRE members into the war (i was told this is a thing but forgot)ehh... I'm not liking what I'm seeing.
>noo why wont the game let me blob savagely :((
Who are you quoting? am I complaining?In fact, another thing, even IF i were to blob all over Silesia, I would still have to core it, and I'm still coring what I took in the last war. No thanksThe bohemian army marches north, the polish troops are desperately trying to coordinate the vassal swarm and prepare for a retreat. It looks like they are about to group together with a brandenburgian army, together they might actually be unstoppable. We'll see next time.

so they're finally adding republics to ck3?took them long enough i guess
for comparison's sake the republic dlc for ck2 released in 2013, one year after releasethey had 13 years to improve upon the concept, let us see how well they've done
How long until they add America?
why would they add ameriga to a medieval game?
i hope they don't, that'd be kind of gay
they added america to eu5 so there's precedent
They already added India to Crusader Kings.
playing as transvaalthe british didnt bother sending troops until after i beat south africa, they tried one naval invasion and gave upnow for whatever reason annexing the cape fails the highveld journal entry, counting as a loss (???), the problem is you need to finish the journal entry to become the south african republic / Suid Afrika which im cucked out of now, the formable has been removed
nice pickle, bro
what does forming zuidafrika even give you? do cores exist in vic3?
usually you get accepted cultures, claims on all their homelands (instant integration) and maybe an event or twoon release you could actually form south africa, get english accepted then reconquer england and form englandnow in my case all i would get is a new name and flag, would be a lot cuter than just transvaal
why would a nation defending its own homeland get the invaders as an accepted culture???????in liqqy 2 zuidafrika only got the englishmen as accepted when she was a dominion of england, not when she was a union of transvaal, oranje, natal and kaap
well yeah i assume thats why they removed itcape colony starts with only english primary then gets to accept either the boer or the griquathe boers dont get any accepted
why do paradox games not get mods anymore?where is the ck+ or hip for ck3?where is the death and taxes for eu5?where is the hyper prussia mod for vic3?
Isn't hyper Prussia just forming the German Empire?
no the joke is that Historical Project Mod added a bunch of decisions for preußen that made them quite powerful, and even as the mod creator nerfed the economy it was prussia that suffered the least and could still industrialize very effectively
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salami_slicing_tactics
vic3 having no major mods after 4 years is just sad , the best mods they have is one based autist making balkan content, one mod for just the usa and one for just australia but you cant play these mods together because they all change states
there is no way liqqy 3 has been out for 4 years alreadyyou're lying!
>Mali, 1458Some major developments have occurred during the « long peace » in the Sahel. Having recently conquered the lands of the upstart rebels from her kin in Timbuktu, Queen Tanteflest has taken the ailing Malian state to new heights. The newly established court in this historic city and close relations with the Sultanate of Morocco has brought new technologies and ideas into the country, and colonization of a land connection to the Maghreb has begun in earnest. Domestically, great efforts towards centralization have been made in the provinces, and any resistance has been brutally suppressed. Trade is also on the rise, as new fleets brave the waves of the Ivory Coast in search of opportunity and gold. This period of tranquil prosperity, however, could not last. In response to the wanton aggression of the Sonni and sensing weakness in the neighbouring state of Jenne; the Queen-Regent has rallied her marshals to march forth once again. Back on the warpath.
>the Royal CourtLove me my black queens
Everything really lined up perfectly here with the timing. I got the notification that Songhai was preparing for war due to my spy network, and the peasant revolt in Jenne happened right before I was about to declare. The goal here is to white peace Songhai for the truce timer and get PP out of Jenne from a Show Strength. Ideally this will be enough to catch up to Portugal/hopefully colonize Cape Verde and Arguim to cuck them out of Brasil

TIL chainmail actually offers better protection than that one iconic roman armor (lorica segmentata) and was more harder + expensive to craft
i find that hard to believe unless romans fucked something up about the segmentata, or just had shoddy craftsmanship trying to arm 12 legions at oncebrigandine is basically a medieval lorica segmentata and offers better protection than chainmail
it's mail, chud
i find it hard to believe that an entire continent, across hundreds of polities, chose to downgrade to a worse armour than that which was available last age
hard how? no amount of steel can stop a bullet
yeah, medieval peoples made great use of roman concrete and gayreek fire
people who use the term gayreek sound gayer than the ancient greeks themselves
wtf this guy just debunked tanks
so how did the romans blow up the greek peninsulawe all know it used to look like a shoe in ancient times before the romans blew it up thats why theres so many islands now
it was the koreans, not romans
A reminder that Confucianism allows you to eventually make all religions tolerated as though they were your true faith.Do yourself a favour and make sure to take Humanist ideas if you play as China or Korea. You will never face a rebellion ever again.
you also get a deus vult cb on all non-confucians from humanist ideas for whatever reason
or you could take an actually useful idea group that makes u stronger and just put down the rebellions
Strength through peace is the greatest of all power.

Even they can eventually be pacified and integrated. Manchuria conquered China about 250 years ago... yet, Manchuria is now controlled by China.

is the phrase "offense is the best defense" actually an oxymoron?
you're an oxymoron
nah, i'm just a moron, thank you very much.
ur logic is backwards. when manchuria conquered china they became china and manchuria getting filled with chinks was the russians' fault. after they annexed outer manchuria the ching dynasty was forced to abandon their ideas of idyllic homeland reservation for trve manchurians only and settle it with chinese to strengthen their claim on inner manchuria with accordance to the "use it or lose it" mindset prevalent at the time (see also congress of berlin)
you don't need to build your own castles if you quickly capture your enemy's castles then defend in them
if you're being on the offense, then no defence whatsoever is taking place so how come it's a form of defence, best version of it even?
you can't push everywhere all at once doeimagine you're campaigning in enemy's lands and in the meantime he goes in and sieges ur capital
Just split your stack in half.

Back at home we're at war with Katsina to raise more funds for these expensive ventures and grab 2 3-dev-shithole provinces for our missions. We're barely turning a profit despite our goldmines at the moment
>Diplo/relationsGuarantueeing Oman to keep the Hanbali school alive, as Mamluks usually kills all the other tribes with it. I want to ally either Tlemcen or Granada so I'll likely dissolve my alliance with the Moroccans and Zazzau
Damn this is pretty good, I don't know of any other mission that instantly gives you a colony in the New World except maybe Portugal with the Cape
doesn't Gotland's pirate path give you one in Bermuda?
>Castille gets union with Aragon>Goes bankrupt less than a year later082I wasn't aware desu but I played them last a few years ago. I got permaclaims on all of Brasil region as well btw
oh yeah and Norway can get Greenland for free too
I suppose I was overstating the rarity, it is a very strong mission nonetheless. Also do you know how I can change an unknown country modifier without a royal marriage? I could do something very funny here but Aragon is Catholic so I can't marry them to make them 'see' me
blob into morocco then save and reload is your best bet
Thanks bro, they rivalled me a few months ago so I guess that should be doable fairly soon
>peace dealBig shoutout to my boy Zazzau for their contributions over the years
or you could just rival the ottermen and get humiliate or trade dispute cb and get fat stacks of ducats while making them go into debt, weakening them more than taking even 100% warscore worth of provinces

So PDX insists on maintaining standing armies/navies as a baseline even in periods where it wouldn't be accurate to do so. As a result you probably forget about the exploits of individual divisions because they blend in with the military as a whole.But are there any moments where one of your armies/navies pulled off a victory you didn't expect, or otherwise engaged in some action that drew your personal attention? Come on, /gsg/, let's hear your best stories of wartime men under your control

why are kaiserreich devs so racist
racist how?
they stole all resources from persia and arabian peninsula because they hate its people
probably to rebalance thingsin a normal ww2 game where you play as the protagonist (germany) pushing that far into asia you've already won, and now your oil troubles are overbut in a kaiserreich scenario where germany and england have a much less firm grip on the whole world you can just blob into aryanistan, so they had to reduce its worth
yeah, i'd think twice before attacking a country ruled by an immortal negromancer
kaiserreich devs like all other paradox mods these days are a bunch of chinese doing china modding and a bunch of trannyfriendsthey didnt touch persia in like 7 years except when they removed persia expansion options and those oil-only resources is basically how persia has been in hoi4 for the last 10 years until recently when paradox shat out a dlc for them

If ever you want to dominate your neighbours in the early game then I recommend playing as the Aztecs. Within 6 years you can get:+20% infantry combat ability+15% discipline+10% moraleWhilst having the biggest army in the AmericasJust remember that you are supposed to make tributaries and take provinces only to delete level 2 forts.
as aztecums you can even dominate europeans easily because you get access to high american units
my prubia deactivates your austriche
heh, you just activated my trap cardby annexing these catholic lands you just halved the effectiveness of your preubische armee. i will now use the special ability of my hero unit alexander suvorov and occupy berlin
The power of +3 flanking range and -50% shock damage taken.
test
yes.. me too... cowabunga...
It is greatly amusing to me that the way Aztecs bring down doom isn't by creating prosperity or forming alliances but by slaughtering armies on the battlefield and ritually sacrificing the royal families of their tributaries.Got me thinking, maybe the Aztecs were the doom all along?
rawful my waffle... :/

back in my day we played vicky 2 and posted dank unfunny memes only a mother could love
Perhaps they should consider adding mission/focus trees to EU V.
missions are good thing but i don't trust paradox not to do what they've done with missions in eu4 and turn them into an absolute powercreep fiestait's like the gold standard. there is nothing inherent in it that makes it better than fiat money except it prevents retarded governments from printing with reckless abandon
that's because nothing ever happens
>player tag has completed one of the following:>player tag:>has a monthly income of 10.2 ducats per month>has clicked "i am a retard" button for 10 times>congratulations you have received +50% discipline, +20% morale, and the undying admiration of your entire nation! advance through the following branch to unlock personal union over the entire multiverse!riveting

it's because paradox has no restraint when it comes to missions>trade value jumped from 22 to 66

Iberia is going through massive turmoil. Castille and Portugal are fighting France and Aragon for control of Navarra and the Aragonese Crown. This indirectly benefits us as it should slow down their colonial efforts considerably

no his plan is to make brazil huwhite by importing european slaves

Do you accept cultures in Imperator Rome or just try to assimilate everything?
>großAragoniums>Never bothered to take JenneThey're the next war planned. I have them set as a rival and have been using them to farm PP or reduce truce timers with other nations which is why I haven't gotten around to it
blvd any other player would blob all of west africa in this timeframe and just colonize later
Maybe but I'm not interested in what any other player would do rather than just playing the game and having fun doing so
i dont see how losing one stab + fighting a rebel stack every 5 months is fun
Because you have poor theory of mind
7this is true and he should do that4this is also trueconclusion: playing eu4 (especially competently) is inherently unfuni suggest uninstall.exe
how about every tuesday?
no playing eu4 is fun if you havent done what youre doing but if youve played every country in the game its overevery time i queue up for another game im just burnt out the moment i get in
>Noooo you don't understand you have to play the singleplayer game the way I do STOP DOING IT WRONGNo.
I was looking at Imperator Rome reviews and they were mostly negative.Apparently, an employee of Paradox was racist towards Turkish people and now the community is in uproar.
apparently that guy was calling some turk an arab-greek mutt
lol i literally just read through the dramaapparently a discord mod on the official pdx discord banned a guy for having ataturk as his profile pic because armenian genocide while people with mao and stalin pfps are just chilling
never forget the 6 million armenians
yanno how people say im too employed to care about this? im too unemployed to care about this
Mao defeated HirohitoStalin defeated HitlerWho did Ataturk defeat?
the british?

>every single PDX game is getting review bombed right nowWhy are they like this?
its so odd to me the brits and french saw the turks as just as uncivilized as the arabs then just ignored them retaking their landimagine if they just enforced their kurdish mandates, armenian satelite and greek anatolia the way they kept a thumb on syria and iraq
They should of gave Constantinople back to the greeks after WW1
They would be no more fucked up than the Balkans are today.How would it change the way WW2 plays out though? Surely more of the Anatolian states would fall under the influence of the Soviets. Would the Eastern Front just include Anatolia? Would the race to Baku be more feasible? Though that would of course open a potential front to the Allies in the Middle East. Not to mention all the supplies that could be funneled through right around Persia.

All I can do is speculate like everyone else but I can't help but feel like the comical level of censorship on the modern Internet is in part to clamp down on the potential for talented people who aren't working for major studios/corporations to make money producing content. I mean, think about all of the juvenile retarded euphemisms people have to use just to be allowed exposure- "unalive", "sewer slide", etc. Having to censor somebody holding a gun or a knife. Words like "rape" and "sex" completely off-limits. It has gone way beyond porn or even adult stories in general, you can't even talk like a normal person on the Internet without being suppressed and it all feels very artificial. I don't have any smoking gun here but I'm not entirely sold on the narrative that it's because companies want to make more money selling ads; I'm sure that's part of it but I also think that the suppression of the average person's ability to express themselves in any way is a deliberate kneecapping of freedom of expression in a time when corporations are more creatively bankrupt than ever, and as we all know these companies love to jerk each other off any chance they can get.
scale is too small go a bit biggerthey're not doing this to make more money from ads or fuck over a few people who would otherwise become millionaires but trying to cattleify the entire planet
I'm having such massive fucking fatigue from all this censorship. This is seriously the most censored that the internet has ever been. When the fuck will this end?

i like how real pops move to the new world when you colonize shit in eu5 and you can lose millions of pops because of this
yeah and then they asexually reproduce at record rates and turn red kids white
would you prefer they remain red
better bred than red
that was a good thing irl but is a bad thing in a medieval game that tries to be a victoria 2irl having too many people led to things like unemployment or everincreasing parcelization of arable land via inheritance among multiple sons, which led to poverty, which led to unrest. in eu5 you just build more buildings to employ everyone and import the food
yes i agree one of the biggest problems of the late qing were the massive population boost which led to migration to non-han lands which lead to ethnic conflict, as well as the stuff you saidreally the issue with eu5 is that it tries to go too tall and too economic, these were obviously very important and should be focused on but the game vastly overdoes it and simultaneously does not focus on other aspects of leading a nationi've had my entire peasant population turn into labourers and burghers, had my economic development completely halt because i wasn't producing enough iron to feed my massive industry or didn't have enough people(despite having over 10m) and so on by 1500-1600 which is just ridiculous

one thing i've felt odd about gsgs was the military system, sometimes it's okay and sometimes it's dogshit but never greatit never feels like it properly captures the whole issue of fog of war, logistics, delegation etc and the ai is always fucking stupidin the case of the latter i think it's unavoidable that the ai would be dumber than the player and that it's not necessarily a bad thing, but the difference is simply way too huge and ensures ai can only threaten a player when over double the size and sometimes even that is not enoughi honestly have no idea how i would implement the military if i made a gsg of my own
of all the paradox games, the one that handles the ai warfare surprisingly well is eu4. not because the ai is good, because after 6 million dlcs it's worse than the previous games, but via the mechanics like forts and force limitof course that's all pissed away by the fact that eu4 is at its core a modifier stacking game and the ai is terrible at stacking modifiers, so who cares that the ai will correctly choose to attack you while you're besieging their mountain fort if you have +20% discipline and they don't
most gsgs don't even attempt logistics, you just pay gold to maintain armies, the same amount whether they're sitting in the capital or on the other side of a continent an ocean away, and they have a small attrition modifier in enemy territory/adverse climate
liqqy 2 comes the closest with goods necessary to support your armies, but of course it doesn't simulate transportand honestly whenever i hear someone say "muh logistics" i cringe because i've encountered so many redditors (outside of reddit, but you can still tell) that think they've discovered america by saying logistics are important. and of course they go overboard with that opinion claiming logistics are the most important thing in warfare, when they're clearly a means to an end
ah yes, the unparalleled realism of memegame2 where assembling ten literal rifles and ten literal tins of preserved meat translate into one fully uniformed regiment of 3000 men

paradox are so biased in their games, as usualplay as a swede or norse, get the best perks
i was wondering for a good minute why scandanavia was so powerful and rich in my eu4 campaign given that they had so few provinces, most of which cost a lot to develop and i had also cucked them out of every trade node where our borders collide
its funny because eu5 scandi is shit because you cant build for half the year and you dont get pop growthonly denmark is good and they start off in a financial crisis
well tbf mid 1600s - early 1700s sweden was a formidable power though, they btfo russia, poland, and the hre shitters multiple times and was rich by the virtue of selling some large wood to england and the netherlands basiclyhistorical vikangz was quite troublesome too obviously
ck3 vikangz though allows the player to siege down and blob much of white europe
I'm trying to explain the Ace Combat universe to my zoomer brotherwe are both Chuds; which country is Israel and which is Iran again?
when i played ace combat i was too young and politically ignorant to compare those gayass countries to real life countriesall i remember was the belkans being the bad guys in uhhhh ace combat 5 was it? or 4?and yuktobania was the good guys i think? in 5? or 4?i forget country names in ace combat 0, that game was more about literal who throwaway characters, that game was about as character-packed as game of thronesi don't think ace combat 2 had any lore about countries, it was just barebones "do this mission... okay now do that mission... okay now stop this icbm... okay now fly into this epic mountain fortress gate and starfox the shit out of it"ace combat 3 (japanese version) was the absolute cream of the crop, kino storyline path choosing with tranime characters and delicious cutscenesbut there were no countries, instead it was corporations fighting for power while this 'peace-keeper' org tried to wrestle with themace combat 3 (european and usa version) on the other hand was a flaming piece of shit, more barebones than ace combat 2ace combat 6... i can't even remember what happened in that game, i only remember fighting a big chungus v-shaped airshipall those games sucked except for ace combat 3 (jp import) and 2never played air combat (ace combat 1)
>>2496074that does not go in the bum o___O
i knew you girls were degens but what is that man
i played all of them except 6 and i still have no idea what the story is i was too busy blowing shit up to pay attention
can you Form teutonic Order in ck3 this coming dlc?
you can form a teutonic order in your pants faggot keep your kinks to yourself
no you have to play as poland to invite then choose to play as themfor extra humiliation ritual
you can already make a teutonic order they just dont become properly landed
almost complimented some dude on the girth of his biceps but god sent a signal through 5G and i got the shivers before i could speak
>humiliation ritualoutside of irl politicians and schwabian meet-ups, i never understood the use of this meme
yes that's the main usea couple months back it was spammed a shitload on boards like /tv/ and /v/ trying to dilute it quite specific meaningbut imagine wanting to play a grossgermanische genocidal crusader state and having to start off as poland. that's the opposite of what people who play as the teutons want
anyway i wait for the merchant republic dlc and trade goods to Play proper Teutonische Orden with Danzig included and Play eu4 in ck3
>However, only 1000 soldiers are needed to create the first 3000-man brigade from a province. >Behind the scene, the game gives you 3000 men out of thin air to make the first brigade, and your 1000+ solders stay as reserves[1].

>The name Islambol (اسلامبول lit.'full of Islam') appeared after the Ottoman conquest of 1453 to express the city's new role as the capital of the Islamic Ottoman Empire. It was first attested shortly after the conquest, and its invention was ascribed by some contemporary writers to sultan Mehmed II himself.[11] Some Ottoman sources of the 17th century, most notably Evliya Çelebi, describe it as the common Turkish name of the time. Between the late 17th and late 18th centuries, it was also in official use. The first use of the word "Islambol" on coinage was in 1730 during the reign of sultan Mahmud I.[37] The term Kostantiniyye still appeared, however, into the 20th century.
good morning /gsg/
gmornin cunt
most turkish names are muttified greek namesbolu is literally polis
there's like at least 3 places where the root of the modern name had polis in it according to wikipedianothing wrong with that though everybody does it
its like if the french conquered england, heard the locals call london the city, assumed thats the name and wrote it down as "chiteu"
may erdogan have mercy on your brown soul
