The funy thing is that it wasn't even the actual Tsar bomba as designed. It was a testing prototype that only had half the projected yield, yet even this prototype would have been enough to wipe a city like San Fran completely from the face of Earth. The projected 100 megatons would have devastated not just San Fran, but surrounding cities as well

For Nueva España you need Mexico and all of Central America, for Nueva Granada it's all the countries comprising Gran Colombia and Rio de la Plata is all the Platineans, Bolivia is optional. You can also form the Peru-Bolivia Confederacy if you want but that's for the upcoming release.

Why not also add decisions for requesting military missions for modernising the army or navy for latinoamerican nations? It might sound like free tech but at least in Chile, it played a role in the causes of the civil war of 1890, a drawback for the modernization should be an increased revolt risk of officers and a smaller one for soldiers (aristocrat officers are now requiered to delegate power and learn math to do logistics and they were just put in charge because of nepotism or because there was no other more competent arround), reactionary/conservative revolt risk and Army/Navy morale penlty for the duration of the modernization.

I diff'd your event and decision files with HFMs out of curiosity and noticed a lot of differences, probably about half of which were more significant than just your changes or an older HFM file which left out something optional like an ai will do = 1. Things like the Gott Mitt Uns Italy decisions having apparently been rewritten sometime after you made your edits, the Setup (startup options?) decision file getting expanded, Russian military modernization getting buffed hard, or Austria-Hungary becoming confederal rather than federal, weakening it.
https://a.uguu.se/K2GO1RHvVujP_diff.7z
Also Russia cores all of the Caucasus except for one of the Ossetian provinces and Pontecorvo never gets its core removed when Italy is formed so whenever the Italians begin to lose a stupid war they started always, their enemies a add liberate Pontecorvo wargoal which is automatically 100 warscore because you can only liberate by state, not by province, and so they want to liberate southwestern Italy, dragging the conflict out and ruining Italy's military and economy. And I'm not sure if it's yours, but the remove microstates option doesn't really work well - giving Andorra to France doesn't make much sense since it starts with a Catalan core, is in a Spanish state and technically boosts the French economy by adding another state and more factory slots, and Monaco only gets a Sardinian/Italian core so when the French claim Savoy (not sure how it works out when the Italians just give it to them) the HPM post-war liberate core event gives it back to Italy. I think the best way to fix that is to have mutually exclusive options in the decisions/events with limits that check if Monaco exists or not to see whether France should get a core there.

Thanks anon, I'll give it a look tomorrow. Is there anything else I might've missed? I usually try to make my changelogs as concise as possible in order to avoid this kind of stuff, I hate it when the HFM devs are vague as fuck with their changelogs or don't even list the changes made to the files.

Other than a lot of country files in common and history, where I'd guess most/all of the changes are yours, very little. issues.txt is littered with small differences (mostly just minor number changes) and the help_ai_russia and help_ai_usa triggered modifiers give a 0.1 boost to mobilization size in HFM.

>>15662033
Is that even historically relevant, though? The cultural differences were nowhere near as important as in the times of HRE. I guess I could understant making Austrians separate, but other than that, it seems like all it'd bring would be Germany getting several new entries in the accepted culture group. If you're going to dick about in the area, how about fleshing Lusatia a bit? Right now it's basically just there to keep Wendic pops from assimilating (the whole Wend thing is an oversimplification much greater than south/north German, btw) and aren't even included in the Zapadoslavia thing you can do as Russia, or anything else for that matter. Historically, they always were the closest to Bohemia and Czechs (they held the area during the early modern period), so perhaps an event that'd annex and set them as accepted if you manage to get them under you influence as Czechoslovakia GP or similar?

I like how he's made Edinburg and Cardiff a capital, since they are, and the Isle of Man not in the UK because it's ruled by the crown, not the UK government. Also the fact microstates exist. It's things like this that Paradox usually just says fuck it to and leaves to modders. Don't like how it's turn based though, it'll just end up like CIV where everything is too tedious to organise or where everything is automized and you do nothing. Also some of the borders like really nice, like you can see how you can get a really fucking sexy 1914 Germany in the polish lands but the italian provinces seem like shit, especially that province where Genoa is. It'll make expansion as France ugly. As well as the fact that we can't get the Austrian italian land right. The lack of cities is concerning aswell.

How do I make the mod (HFM + Anon Edits) not run like total shit in the midgame/late-game? I can play Blood and Iron all fine without the game lagging to hell and eventually getting annoyed and simply quitting, but I think HFM has so many pops or is badly programmed and it really makes my games slow as fuck. I've even considered upgrading to an SSD but I don't think it will have that much effect.

THREADLY REMINDER
We're currently experimenting with a patch tested locally in the studio to provide a population diversity feature in Victoria II, starting with the Ottomans (because, as our games has proven, they remain sort of weak) which will gain buffs depending on how diverse the ethnicities are, and since the Ottomans had quite a lot of tribes it makes sense that they get the greatest benefits from this. Also, homogenous populations (for example_ Hw*te e*ropean countries) will get penalties because, according to recently discovered historical census documents that only we have seen and can't really show you, there has always been a social push towards diversity, meaning that you'll get social unrest and instability events that'll put your country at risk. This test will help us shape the future of Vicky III!

Several days ago I implemented some new terrain types: montane_farmlands, montane_dry, montane_desert, montane_jungle, montane_boreal and farmlandhills; 'rebalanced' several pre-existing terrain types and updated all the special provinces (you know, the ones with pictures like London, Königsberg, etc) as well as other random provinces with the new terrain types I've ripped off from different mods added.
Right now, after being done fixing the stuff >>15660194 pointed out, I'll begin coding some more flavor decisions for Cascadia and South America, namely the Spanish San Lorenzo de Nutca and El Orejón, the Sale of Fort Ross and alternatively, turning Fort Ross into an actual city (the place was colloquially known as Novy Sevastopol/Nizhni Sevastopol, so either name should do.), the implementation of something along the lines of what >>15660128 suggested, turning slaves into soldiers for ex-Grancolombian countries might be OP though as well as dumping niggers slaves in Haiti/sending them to Liberia as ex-Grancolombian countries I'll probably try to flesh out Liberia in the future as well.
After I'm done with all this, I'll release a new update.
Then, I'll try to fix the messy soviet borders in Uzbekistan, Kirghistan and Tajikistan. Those didn't exist back in 1836, so I'm trying to figure out what the actual fuck should I do, because the soviets sent a cartographic team in like the early 30's which visited every village in the area and documented its ethnic composition, the outcome was laid on a map and thus you get the modern borders, a real fucking mess with enclaves and exclaves and all sorts of horrid bordergore; might have to use stuff exported from EU4 for some inspiration, because I honestly hate the soviet borders as much as I hate the Sykes-Picot.
After that I'm gonna add more bloat content to Persia with the rise & fall of the Babi-Baha'i, some decision to change RGO in Mazandaran to tea and MAYBE different Persian subgroups Tati-Talyshi, Gilaki-Mazandarani, Luristani and renaming Persian to Farsi, if the different Persian subcultures bloat goes through I'm gonna make an event/decision chain to form Greater Iran. I'll also flesh out Afghanistan since you can reform the Durrani Empire as the Emirate of Afghanistan, which was ruled by the bloodline of Dost Mohammad Khan Barakzai, who actually imprisoned the last Durrani ruler (Ayub Shah) and exiled a bunch of his family members to Delhi and some other Pajeet shitholes. It doesn't make any sense that you can reform the Durrani Empire as the fucking Barakzai, it's like saying you want to reform the CSA as Abraham Lincoln.

Victoria 2 isn't any harder than for example EU3. Trade can be safely automated. AI is braindead.

The image of yours, under 'CAS', is the flag of one of the modern Northwest independence movements; however, it's completely marxist, antiracial, and antiwhite in its' nature. You can read about them here: https://www.cascadianow.org/
It's the standard, kosher, pseudonationalist trash, stressing how 'inclusive' it is.
The rainbow variant of the flag is actually from the same movement, seen here:

The flags I posted are from the Northwest Front, which is a pretty small movement, but is National Socialist, with info here:

>Is it possible to restore Byzantium as the Hellenic Empire?
No, the Roman Empire is nominally dead though it could be argued that Tsarist Russia was the 3rd Rome and after a long deliberation which spanned like 2 /gsg/ threads a few months back in this very board, we came to the conclusion that the so-called 'Byzantine Empire' would be too meme-y and silly for the 19th century Greeks to create. The Hellenic Empire was deemed as a historically-plausible alternative since the 19th century saw a resurgence on all things Hellenic, which along with Orthodox Christianity, could be used to unite all the Greeks. Now the ERE worked in a similar way, but I guess you don't want to dig up a rotten corpse and make it wear royal garments, so the capitalization of the Hellenic cultural boom would be a suitable alternative. I admit the acceptance of Armenians, Assyrians, Serbs, Montenegrins, Bulgarians and Copts might be a little bit too LARP-y, but you still have dreams of an Empire, don't you? That's the reason you can now LARP as 19th century St. Justinian and piece your old realm back together.
And as for Grosstexaniums, the Texan version that will be released as Grosscascadiums will only encompass the aforementioned areas. If you wanna play the true Grosstexaniums you'll have to actually play Texas and it's gonna be a surprise because I haven't started working on it, but it SHOULD be ready for the upcoming release.

For example, Oklahoma being granted statehood as an Indian state (or some way of representing the Albert Pike treaties with the Indians, maybe by giving both CSA and Cherokee cores in Oklahoma minus the panhandle and giving CSA Cherokee as accepted culture) or Border States flipping sides during the war if the whole state is held for a certain amount of time by the CSA (and the reverse I guess).

It sucks. It's a neat idea but really only for the mod potential, because the base game+base DLCs are shit. This is of course completely discounting Parakike's absolutely belligerently Jewish DLC practices along with their complete retardation inspiring them to balance their games around multiplayer that virtually nobody plays.
The problem with Stellaris is that in a game and idea as vast as micromanaging an entire, boundless empire in the galaxy there's nothing to fucking do. Once you've got a good ship design you're just going to boilerplate it and copy it for the rest of the game. Combat comes down to zerging as opposed to clever engineering and tight tactical choices so you're just going to spam shitty corvettes at the enemy because it's provably more efficient than risking huge battlecruisers. Changing the government options/sliders feel like they do nothing and all changes you make through tech, diplomacy or otherwise feel so incremental that every single game devolves into the following:
>rush a particular tech that you want
>rush to expand until you're at capacity
>rush to create a superfleet because again, that's the only way you're going to get anything done
>sit and do nothing for literal hours waiting for the endgame tech to unlock
>occasionally hire a new scientist/admiral/whatever
>watch as the galaxy almost immediately falls into federations/alliances, which means that small expansionary advances never happen without turning into full-fledged total galactic war (which is somehow less interesting than it sounds)
>watch as the wargoals have been changed from launch, which now means even if you've wiped every last enemy ship from the galaxy and bombed/captured every last one of his planets, you're not allowed to completely annex/destroy them because reasons

Oh yeah, for the Anon who asked me for an event to make Deseret secede during the Civil War: Deseret can actually secede if rebels control Salt Lake City for about 120 days, if you wait long enough (about ~12 months in the right conditions, maybe even less if you meet certain criteria), they will secede. In fact, a bunch of states can secede if their respective capitals are controlled by rebels, the existence of CSA or other independent states simply speeds up the process.

Vietnam and Croatia had no help at all, with the exception of Vietnam being given around a hundred planes from North Korea on loan, to fight against the US (with North Korean pilots), that was the extent, and they didn't even have that help when China invaded, likewise they had no help against France.
Romania had some help in the later stages of the war, after they started winning already; same with the US.

Yeah, the Sioux/Lakota and others in the region were fighting against encroaching settlement until well into the end of the century and there were multiple phases where things ebbed and flowed between treaties and wars before the final American triumph. They ended up having to outright genocide the fuckers in many cases.
Assuming they could survive long enough for the south to successfully secede and for the Oregon country to go it's own way the midwest natives having their own state sounds suitable, they've even got their own meme secession movements to steal flags from.

I think that the fascist one would look better without the written phrase on it, and the communist one would look better without the green/white/blue stripe, just sticking with the red/yellow; having all those colors on one flag is visually jarring.
Looks good otherwise, though.

I think the CAS default would look better without the blue circle around the tree, and maybe see if the FASH one is improved at all by re-positioning the cannon so it's contained within the white stripe.
The monarchy flag is okay, maybe check out other symbols to use instead of a wreath? BC has loads, ones that stick out are the westward setting sun and dogwood flower.

Depends how you view how fascism is founded. The reason the fasces is used is because the word fascism is from fasces. Fascism without the fasces just doesn't make sense. I liked the original commie flag you had in the first picture you posted, with the flag and the tree with the sickle and hammer.

Got an idea for Grosstexiums, the Federation would be divided into 4 countries (or states I guess): Texas, Rio Grande, Sonora and California. Texas & Rio Grande can unite as a single country in the beginning (Texas-Rio Grande Republic) and claim their rightful historical clay as shown in pic related. Once you've consolidated you could either integrate the Californios (Hispanic) from the First Californian Revolt Which almost succeeded like 10 years before the Bear Flag Revolt. I have to add this before even working on Grosstexiums or wait until America takes over and free the Californians (Not Hispanic) and annex them to your country. Sonora would be optional, but I suppose you'd want it in order to have cleaner borders.
The union would have 3 main cultures: Texan, Norteño (Hispanic) and depending on your choice, Californio (Hispanic) or Californian (English-speaking); these new cultures sans Texan will appear once you integrate its respective states. Cascadia, Deseret and California also have similar mechanics which have been already implemented and ready for the next release.
As for the country's name, I'm at a loss. It'll be the Texas-Rio Grande Republic in the beginning, but once Sonora and California have been integrated, I don't know how should I name it. Feedback is appreciated.
I also planned to add Louisiana to the federation, but then I'd have to add their historical claims as well because you can't have Louisiana without FRENCH LOUISIANNE. But if I do so, the borders would look too fucked up so I'd have to add Cascadia and fucking Alaska in order to make the country look decent enough, defeating the whole purpose of a Grosstexiums.

Sure, if you were to provide any ideas I could probably do it. So far I've only implemented Theocracies to represent Middle-Eastern Christians without a nation like Copts, Antiochene Greeks and Assyrians, makes sense to give them Theocracies so their pops don't get assimilated since the closest thing they've ever had to self-rule would be their churches.

All is good but I have little chance of fighting off the spaniards, specially with such a strong relationship,

Plus, should've stayed with Britain, now I'll hope to regain their alliance and go to war with France so I can fight their colonies off.
Also, ended up coring colonies which could have been trade companies (simply because I didn't know about it), namely Ivory Coast and S. Africa, is it still worth turning them back into territorial cores for the trade company bonuses?

Welcome to every single Portugal game ever. It's honestly the most boring nation to play in my opinion, since most of your time will be spent on x5 speed colonizing. as for what you should do, don't bother with GB and attacking france. French troops are horrendously more powerful then your troops can ever hope to be, and GB won't be much more help when land battles are a threat. Just about the only way you could beat them, is if your navy can stop all major transporting of soldiers either across Atlantic, or to your mainland European holdings, assuming spain doesnt give him access. If a single stack of 20k French soldiers appears in SA, you're probably fucked, since their quality is probably that much higher then yours.
If anything, the better option would be to look into expanding eastward into South Africa and beyond into India and Indonesia. Your mission tree accentuates this, as well as you can earn a ton more money controlling the spice trade, since GB tends to leech a ton of money from American trade since lol English channel tradennode.

That's more of a Greek emphasis with the whole eating the Olympians and all that. The Romans adored Saturn with one of the biggest festivals in the Roman world, Saturnalia, being in his honor. According to their mythology Saturn ruled on Earth over a Golden Age of prosperity for mankind and was associated with agriculture (hence why he's often depicted with a scythe - and why Father Time is since Saturn was later associated with Time) and wealth.
One could argue pretty handily that Saturn was in the top 3 most adored gods by the Romans. It makes no fucking sense to have him as an evil god.

Playing as a Shi'a sultanate in Inida 1066 start so I'm not really experiencing a lot of the new Catholic and pagan mechanics that come with the DLC. I will say though that a lot of the free changes with the patch seem great, mostly with the addition of hundreds of new provinces to flesh out areas like Germany and Russia and the steppe, along with new de jure empire and kingdom changes. I also like the movement lock update since it forces you to think more about your movements, if only a little more. Plus you can disable it without affecting ironman if you care about that stuff, so options like that are always a plus imo.
Random world is a disgusting clusterfuck that reminds me of the BELIEVABLE WORLDS that was the early days of the Random New World generation in EU4. Shattered world is okay but theres already mods for that.

Here's another beta release, fixed all the issues from the feedback and started working on Texas, California and Northern Mexico. I'll probably take a break for now and resume development in January, nevertheless I'll keep fixing whatever issues pop up from this beta, but I'll probably won't add anything new to the game.
I really do need a break before getting burnt out; life is catching up as well, so I don't think I'll be able to mod that much in the upcoming weeks or even months.
Remember, I'll be lurking on this thread, so please, if you do encounter any issues, do post them. Have a good one.

That's what happens when a game gets designed partitioned up into DLC instead of made as one coherent whole. A game can maybe tolerate one or two optional features and still work well but when half the games' mechanics are locked into DLC then it's impossible to make a good game.
You either design the game around having all the DLC in which case it's fucked up if you play without any of them (and probably fucked with them because they're made staggered after release and not designed coherently in the first place) or you design the game around having no DLCs in which case adding any of them fucks up the game. Or, you do what Paradox did, and design the game around expecting DLCs, but not the specific exact DLCs they made, you just make it barebones in general, and then you shit out DLCs one at a time that add on shit or change shit around and what you have is an incoherent mess that doesn't work, with DLCs or without.

it will be shit since it's not focused on one historical period. You can't apply the same mechanics on the middle ages as you would on a modern scenario. Besides, any GSG set in modern day would need to be an economy simulator first and foremost. Due to globalization, the states are no longer fully independent or sovereign in their actions - they all rely on other countries in one way or another, be it for their imports or for their exports. That drastically limits who you can afford to wage war on, since you're not just pissing him, but also anyone who is dependent on him in some way. That's not even mentioning the gargantuan alliances like NATO, or OSN fuckery.
I do not think a game that would even come near to realism, regarding modern day GSG, exists.

The site has a Tor version that's up, or you could just use the Codex release.

Only enjoyment you're going to get from it is either:
1. Installing retarded mods to break the game in fun ways or
2. Play multiplayer with autistic children and ruin their fun by going off the rails with ahistorical Tannu Tuva becoming fascist and dragging Japan into a war with the Comintern, or by sniping the USA and sitting on your ass all day long while getting screeching insults from the Allies, or even, if you can get away with it, play as a tiny nation, go some political ideology and start influencing neutral AI nations to throw a wrench into the plans of other players. Multi is a treat, but for the worst reasons possible.
A quick note: paratroopers into enemy nations just before declaring war on them IS a viable strategy, find out all the funky exploits like switching military to civilian factories in Axis members and going straight to war economy to regain free civs and creating horribly shaped puppets on cores of conquered lands to get free units, and go to town with that.

Austria was no longer friendly after that.
Greece left me and lost their hat, but still maintained Cyprus from the war in Turkey.
Ironically, the war of Mexican submission was a disaster without purpose, but resulted in the annexation of Hati for sake of convenience.

I tried playing Indochina in DH. However, being a puppet, I can't stockpile any supplies or money since France/Japan will suck away excess production, and so I can't mobilize. The alternative is starting in 1940, at war, mobilizing immediately, and trying to mount a defense against the *nglos in just a year with 4 IC.

First time I've seen Qing Empire westernize, not collapse, and become a Republic. Too bad they got dismantled less than 50 years later.

The first Great War didn't occur until 1961, became the deadliest war I've seen in my games so far
