The Eldership elective system works exactly as well as you'd expect from Paradox. These faggots would rather vote for a 9 year old kid than the 16 year old brilliant strategist because he's somehow "entirely unqualified".

>>15762088

Oh, so its like that situation.

>council is mad! you have too many holdings!

>council wont allow you to give out holdings!

>>15762088

Also worth noting that the council is coded to be contrarian to the point of idiocy when they're in whatever the buttblasted state is called. They'll always vote against your selected heir in this state, so if you designate someone else they'll be more than happy to back the guy they previously thought unqualified.

Charly start, going for the White Hun cheevo thing. On that note, I fully understand why Indians are as fucked up as they are. It's hard to stay INDO-ARYAN with all these Dravidians around.

>>15762233

Lol to whoever thought this was impressive to post online. Nice double dubs though.

Imagine you were making a grand strat not in a Paradox engine and there was some more freedom to decide some of the fundamental elements - would it make sense to move away from a fixed province map and over to a cities & towns based hex tile map?

By this I mean of course that the tiles would be very small and mostly just used because there has to be some level of granularity rather than gigantic Civ/EL tiles, but let's say that the average European province in Victoria 2 would translate into a dozen or so tiles, so there'd be a fuckton overall. Cities and towns could have fixed locations or could be dynamic and either hand placed according to history or if not in a historical setting than in logical locations such as major rivers. The idea here is that for every "province" equivalent area there'd be a town, for every "state" equivalent area there'd be a city, and for several "state" equivalents together (call it a region) there'd be a major city (Paris London Munich etc).

Instead of fixed and locked borders you'd have control over non-urban tiles which would run a gamut between wilderness, cultivation (farmland or mining industry), and urbanizatin (development of minor towns). Control would vary depending on policies, technology, and pop cultures, so on the map you'd see thin lines of your nation's colour on tile clusters you own, thicker as you have greater control, and solid for full control. Border lines would be based on your claims de jure, map colour on control de facto. Areas under full control would be places where your law enforcement and bureaucracy is in full effect, areas under low control would be places where the law is weak. Frontiers and the like, civil war areas, or places heavily damaged by war (think 30 years war Germany or civil war Russia).

City/town ability to control areas would have some extrusion strength variation depending on terrain, so cultivated farmland in flat areas is going to be easy to control, a large river is a fair barrier to extrusion, mountains and hilly terrain limit control, etc. So two towns near each other owned by different countries would not necessarily have a straight line border with each other but rather it might end up following the curve of a river running between them. As RGOs would be on a tile basis, one province-equivalent area could produce an assortment of goods rather than just one.

Cities and towns would be what you'd own directly (or if in a CK2-ish time period then you could link each city and town to a given character running them), and then they'd also yield farming/mining output and manpower depending on effective control over surrounding countryside. So, a bit like some 4X, but trying to leverage the flexibility of tiles to get something more dynamic going and theoretically reduce border gore. Potentially, play as your capital city, with the political entity of the nation arising around that, rather than playing as a tag (in the Paradox sense). As it feels to me like most of history, at least in Europe, has had major cities as the main axis that countries revolve around.

I also think this would be a good way of modelling things like Austria-Hungary where you had lots of small German and sometimes Hungarian towns/cities surrounded by countryside inhabited by Poles, Romanians, etc. In V2, you don't really see this very well either on the map or in province pop breakdowns, and it's kind of represented by pop type but that's about it.

Does this sound like it'd work well or am I retarded?

is paradox shit even worth it? the insurmountable amount of DLC is fucking staggering

I only ever played CK2 but that was waay back when I got it from a humble bundle and only a couple of expansions where out

>>15765157

As a rule of you should never buy games and especially never give your money to Paradox. Always pirate everything. It's not that hard nowadays with so many torrent sites and cracking groups.

>>15762889

is Paradox random gen better than Yemmlie's? He said he was going to replace the random country generation with this one.

>>15766807

Paradox's random world gen is very much worse than Yemmlie's. Paradox's random world gen works simply by randomly generating a political landscape based on certain parameters specified in the random world options. Their random cultures and random religions are not truly random religions or cultures, but rather they are renamed vanilla cultures (these names are generally taken from wherever the culture randomly spawns on the map, rather than from anything else). The religions are much the same, except I think a few of the religious features are randomised as well. Yemmlie's random world generator allowed you to generate entirely maps, which Paradox's generator doesn't. These maps were then imported into the history simulator part of Yemmlie's application, which would simulate the entire history of the world, essentially spawning civilisation of an entirely random culture and religion in a single province and letting it spread out from there. The cultures and religions mutated over time, spawning entirely new cultures and religions, leading to a somewhat more cohesive world. I'm not explaining any of this properly though and I've got sick of trying to so enjoy this shitpost.

>>15766964

Actually I thought of a good way to explain it.

Paradox's world gen is random and gay, whereas yemmlie's was procedural and pretty cool.

>>15766964

Random world is a dumb idea in a game about history in the first place, but to each their own I guess.

The fact that none of the Christianity shit works out in a pre-1066 start, still, is the bigger problem.

>>15764075

I just needed a Luxembourg WC map to make a joke.

But the funny thing is that WC in HoI4 isn't easy as much as it is boring as fuck. If you play as a tier 1 or 2 nation and manage to beat the main opposing faction, then that's it, you're done with the game, no one else will stop you as long as you put a shitton of forts on your border and occasionally encircle naval invading forces. Since the rest of the game is basically waiting on you and your puppets to regenerate political mana and mannpower, you can just let the game run in the background for an hour or so to build up time. Playing as a minor or a meme nation like Luxembourg though is just being in spectator mode while waiting for your ideology to switch to either of the fun ones, declare war on a neighbor, then wait for the AI to do all the work for you, then placing your units near the victory points to grab as much points as possible and then just rinse and repeat for the rest of the game by basically hijacking another nation as your puppet.

>>15767161

Eh, Yemmel's at least made a history you could use your imagination with.

>>15767255

That's how WCs are in EU4 also. Not even hard, just boring as fuck.

>>15775269

I usually manually edit the Otto units to be weaker, since they're fucking ridiculously strong at the start. Lately I've been getting into CK2 more, but in the past their hardon for the sandniggers is way too obvious.

that timeline ignores the middle eastern contributions before islam destroyed everything and tried to steal the later contributions as "the islamic golden age" when islam was finally being lax and then the mongols arrived and made sure it could never rise again, all the knowledge that was saved and not burned or destroyed was sent over to europe which became the known as the renaissance and the revival from the dark ages.

>>15777404

>Not Prussian Zentralamerika

why would you do this?

>>15777450

No the new fresh (((academic))) meme is that muh muslim golden age. Sure they preserved some stuff, especially Aristotle's works, but most of the shit was destroyed. Something like 90% of the texts? I forget the actual number. They also burned down this massive library in Hindustan, the muzzies were bastards.

>>15777509

The islamic golden age did happen, but it was incredibly short and it's main leverage over europe at the time was it's strategical trading position, giving them access to cheap indian and chinese goods, and the mutazilites&co, which were the one sect of islam to actually give a shit about philosophy. They were in many ways the direct ancestors of aquinas' though, if you want any comparison.

Overall, muzzies compete with early christians for the highest number of knowledge destroyed. Do not forget that they put the last nail in the coffin of the Great Library of Alexandria.

>>15777566

I think muzzies are number one for knowledge destroyers. At least Christians had the renaissance.

>>15777591

You can't really compare early christians with late midde age christians, tbh. Might just call it a different religion altogether.

There was circumcision, priests could marry, knowledge was highly frowned upon, war was highly encouraged, iconoclasty, etc…

Not to mention the actual theological differences, considering that up to the mid-400s, before the nicaea was effective, there literally was no consensus about what actually comprised the biblical canon and what was the nature of god. Heck, even into the 600s there were christians that didn't think Jesus was divine AT ALL.

>>15777611

Pretty sure circumcision was slammed in the Pauline epistles, which means if it was practiced by some 1st century Christians, it didn't last long.

>>15777611

Yeah I won't disagree with that but the muzzies never had that change and stayed goatfucking savages.

>>15777656

Out of all these things, yeah, circuncision was one of the first to go. It might have lasted up to the early 100s simply due to miscommunications and people who hate change.

>>15777696

Well, yeah. The people responsible for their golden age were literally a handful of intellectuals compared to millions of goatfuckers.

>>15777717

Most of the people responsible for their golden age weren't even Muslims. See: https://warosu.org/lit/thread/S10010639

>>15777533

Nah, on that beta release comanches were a placeholder culture, I've overhauled the natives in North America since that one; they're now divided in Plains, Northeast, Southeast, Southwest, Pacific Coast and Great Basin Natives and I'm planning to do the same with the natives in Northern South America (Chibchan/North Andean Native and Northern South American Native for those on the Venezuelan Coast and Guyana, I've also renamed Moskitian to Central American Native.)

Also the Colombian province Paraguay got is 2254, it's supposed to be 2554 (Misiones), it's a typo I fixed already, thanks for pointing it out.

>>15777736

You're talking about avicenna and averroes?

I mean, they were mozzarabs (Iberians who converted to islam in order to get social acceptance), so their faith in islam wasnt really that pure. However, saying that they actually weren't muslim is sort of a stretch, since that would definitely be closer to that than christianity or judaism. In the philosophy side of things, they were the pinnacle of "islamic philosophy".

One funny thing about all of this is that the overwhelming majority of islamic intellectuals weren't arabs, when they comprised most of the higher class AND the population. They were always jewish, iranian, iberians or greeks who converted, but very rarely arabs.

>>15777820

>However, saying that they actually weren't muslim is sort of a stretch

So denying the core tenets of islam doesn't make someone not a muslim? Nothing to do with them being mozzarabs.

>>15777870

Well, most modern christians deny the core principles of christianity, however, they are still very much christians. This is much more of a social condition than an actual matter of faith.

>>15777396

Anon, the entire timeline you see there is a joke played on the original image made probably by some retarded redittor.

It's bullshit fit for /r/atheism

The real problem is that NIs are just a shit idea to begin with, nothing but filler to pretend that EU4 is getting content for paradox shills to talk about when in reality it's just devs throwing darts at a dartboard.

I have no Idea why Alania decided to change regions, but I had hoped that by swearing fealty with the shia caliph, we'd at least have enough troops combined to withstand the byzantines as they were mopping up the sunnis. we even had a successful jihad against them, which is why that little blob exists in the middle of byzantine territory. I'd feel like overthrowing the emperor would be best at this point, but the game won't allow me to do that yet unless I increase the council power first. I got a feeling that I'm gonna lose a good chunk of territory first before I can start gaining more strength in Africa. Also, the event troops from china helped the crusade a bit until civil unrest started plaguing the nation, so now any protection offered is rendered moot.

Next Seven centuries game I start I'm gonna enable the Aztec invasion to see if that stops the growth of all the rising superpowers in midgame.

>>15781687

I mean Franco's position was understandable. He was asked to enter a war just a few years after the Spanish civil war ended, with basically no potentional territorial gains in return (except maybe Gibraltar but Germany would probably keep it anyway). When he asked for at least Morocco, he got rejected, so why would he join the war indeed?

>>15781536

>the National Socialists weren't responsible for the German economy recovering

They were, but they were also the reason Germany had to go to war in order to cancel its debt, otherwise it would have collapsed. The recovery was effectively a Ponzi scheme, with the government hiding its debt from the balance sheets.

>the German army was just lucky

In France, yes. Lucky both in that France reacted poorly on the spot and that French doctrine since the end of WW1 had assumed and prepared for another WW1 scenario.

Blatant lie pushed by modern kikes and (((professors))) to discredit National Socialism.

It's a pretty funny 'coincidence', though. The only economic system which kicked out the jewish bankers and freed itself from the International Banking system gets kikes saying

>oy vey, it's useless to resist our control, the nahtzees would've collapsed anyway! trust us !

Get the fuck out of here.

>>15781809

To be honest it's true that the system wouldn't have lasted…. But that's just because it was essentially a last ditch effort to get people to live in a non shit country anymore. Remember that after WWI most belligerent countries and non were torn to pieces (for a purely coincidental reason, (((The City of London))) was still up and running fine). The Labor Money system was meant to get people a job in public services and building and to prevent the worldwide embargos on Germany from crippling its internal economy, given that their coin was absolutely worthless. I'd imagine they'd have switched back to something more privatized like what they had in Italy hadn't war broken out so soon.

What's the deal with these far-left transplants- literal gommies and anarchists- making revisionistic meme mods lately, anyways? Same crowd in nu-Kaiserreich and The New Order; insufferable 'ha ha le nadzis ar sod amb' faggots with an understanding of things that starts at 'the Germans weren't literal techno-wonder supermen,' this being a mythology promoted by both sides (for the Germans because fake it 'til you make it, for the Allies to explain their continual abject failures shored up by a far larger logistical backend & schizophrenically maintaining and unraveling the narrative depending on time or audience to this day) and ends there very promptly, with every other Allied myth and apologism continuing to be shrieked under a thin veneer of ebinly sarcastic Goon flavor forced memeing. I have to wonder how many of these smug, insipid faggots will turn out to be (((people))) with a chip on their shoulders.

>>15781806

They had a bit of help from the French, who more or less ignored de Gaulle's Vers l'Armée de Métier- 'Towards the Professional Army' - which laid out the blueprint of a mechanized, tank-heavy army in the early '30s in parallel to the German thinking, and preceding it in clarity. Guderian and Hitler read it, at least. But being willing to go balls out radical was definitely their strength and their doom; the former for how far they were willing to go, the latter for the incompleteness of their effort.

>>15781882

>making revisionistic meme mods lately, anyways?

Don't know, that is a good question though.

>>15781872

It wasn't a 'last-ditch effort' of any sort; it was a genuine alternative to the other methods of backing up currency.

If you think that the NS system wouldn't have lasted, then provide evidence to support your claim.

Doubt you will though, considering it's a lie made up by kikes to push their bullshit capitalist-communist dichotomy without admitting to there being any alternatives.

>>15781806

The tactics weren't entirely new, literally everyone in the world was developing the same ones. The fucking allies in WW1 were using tank spearheads to end the war. These were the same tactics used by every mobile army in every war for centuries. The complication was that France was specifically assuming the opposite strategy of trench warfare AND they left the Ardennes nearly undefended AND the Belgians completely threw in the towel early leaving a huge hold in the front.

Shit like Schwerpunkt for centuries? Are you literally retarded? There weren't even proper fronts centuries ago which would make that tactic applicable. The mobile warfare tactics of prior ages centered around using cavalry to disrupt unit cohesion and cause a rout, or around circling enemies

No one was hostile until around 1937 or so. Also was hidden from everyone in Germany.

What do you think happens when you are in debt and can't pay your debt?

>>15782219

>Please explain how socialism is not socialism then.

Marxism and Socialism aren't the same thing. If they were, that kike Marx wouldn't have been able to spend an entire chapter of his bullshit manifesto criticizing various forms of socialism which, according to him, had existed for decades, at minimum.

>No one was hostile until around 1937

Lie. There was an international boycott of German goods instigated by the kikes and supported by the major Western powers in 1933. The Poles had been slaughtering Germans in the Danzig corridor since 1934 at the latest. The USSR had been mobilizing troops in the west in preparation for invasion of Poland and German.

President Roosevelt had been instigating war since the day Hitler took office, and had been doing everything short of actually sending soldiers there in order to provoke Germany (and Japan, as well). The Czechs had refused to grant Germans living in the stolen German land (which was occupied by the Czechs since the Treaty of Versailles) equal rights, and stole their property. France had been instigating conflict since 1933 as well.

>What do you think happens when you are in debt and can't pay your debt?

A bunch of kikes in New York and London claiming that the Germans still owe debt as per the Treaty of Versailles and other problems which sprung from it doesn't make it so.

>>15782219

>What do you think happens when you are in debt and can't pay your debt?

When you owe the bank $100 you have a problem. When you owe the bank $100 million, the bank has a problem.

All countries have debt. So long as the economy grows faster than the debt it isn't a problem. If you mean Versailles that document wasn't worth the paper it's written on.

>>15780233

It's quite simple, it's a way to live out their fantasies of what they want.

Of course, this is never going to happen, but something to keep their fantasies going before everything starts falling apart.

>>15782989

Hitler didn't consider the economy to be an afterthought. The economic aspect of National Socialism was a genuine, working alternative to the two main kiked systems (capitalism and communism), and that's why kikes lie so much about it like your pic.

>>15782219

>What do you think happens when you are in debt and can't pay your debt?

I dunno, ask the USA. They can't pay their debt.

>>15783162

Yes they can. The US is still more than capable of paying off the interest to the debt each year, which is the primary concern of investors. That's not to say everything is peachy-keen with American debt but its not at "cant pay their debt" tier yet.

>>15783169

When you pay off interest by borrowing more money (which is what the US does, they run a massive budget deficit every year which means they are constantly taking on more debt) you are not paying your debt. You are shuffling it around and digging yourself deeper. America pays interest on its debt (around 250 billion dollars) and then dumps 750 billion dollars into welfare for niggers and spics. It doesn't have the money for this welfare, so it borrows it… going further into debt.

Nobody can collect on them, for threat of military force. So their economy is actually just propped up by their armed forces.

>>15783200

The government being able to borrow money to pay off interest is an ability to pay for it though. It's not a sustainable or even preferable way to do things but when you're comparing the debt situation of Hitler's Germany and today's America it's apples and oranges.

>>15783200

>Nobody can collect on them

The US pays though. Some countries have failed to pay like Greece, Argentina, Zimbabwe, etc but that makes any future debt come with very high interest since more conservative investors don't lend them anymore.

Lefty fag's attempts at "improving" germany always crack me up. And they always center around reddit and discord circlejerks. I hear the thousand week reich thing is better than most tho.

>>15783220

If you are "paying" for it by going deeper into debt then you're not actually paying for it, you just have a big enough military to force people to keep buying into the charade. And that is the only difference between the USA and Germany. The USA is able to force people to play along with the charade, Germany was not.

>>15783243

The 'issue' didn't exist with Germany, they weren't in debt the way that the USA is; their debt was based on on the Treaty of Versailles, which the allies kept claiming that they needed to pay back in spite of it being bullshit to begin with.

NS Germany would not have collapsed on its' own, that's why the kiked nations invaded; if it was just going to fall on its' own anyway, they wouldn't have needed to.

>>15783252

Yeah, but the point here is to show that even if Germany was in debt it couldn't pay off and its economy was somehow "wrong" as a result, then that means the USA's economy is just as wrong because it can't pay off its debt either. And Communism is even more wrong because the USSR actually collapsed.

So the whole "national socialism doesn't work, it was unsustainable, they couldn't pay their debts!!!" argument just doesn't work.

>>15783331

Their corporativism ways are always used by left wing governments as ways to achieve autonomy from the outside world market, this never worked for Germany since they are a small country and they even had fuel shortages later in the war by the year '42, they pretty much also tried to enforce compulsory labor on their population, practically they made illegal to be unemployed and also they made all the unions into one single state controlled union, this is also something done by the left nowdays Whit the excuse of making unions stronger because they will be bigger even if their leaders are appointed by the party, another point is that the natisoc believes that wealth comes from production, this is a problem because it doesn't take into account if the production is efficient or if the business is profitable no matter the production, like of digging to many holes randomly in the ground makes the enation richer, most of the pro natisoc material focus on production so much that reminds me of the propaganda from 1984, the sources doesn't even state if this production was efficient, profitable or meet the market standards of quality.

Natisoc supports central planning and corporativism in short words.

>The Czechs had refused to grant Germans living in the stolen German land (which was occupied by the Czechs since the Treaty of Versailles) equal rights, and stole their property.

That's a lie. The land was given to Czechs because it was historically part of the Bohemian kingdom and the Germans did have equal rights. In fact, they had their own political party in the parliament. German property was not being stolen until after the war.

There is also no evidence that Poles ever massacred Germans in the Danzig corridor prior to WW2, save for literal German propaganda.

>>15784134

>>15784134

>no evidence of Germans being massacred by Poles

Bullshit. There is tons of evidence for it, including statements made by Polish officials who openly supported the action and mocked the Germans. Edward Rydz-Śmigły, in particular, mocked Hitler and said that the Germans had it coming.

Next, when Czechoslovakia was first created at the behest of the Brits and Americans, its' population consisted of 28%~ Germans. Yet in spite of this, their political ability was surpressed, they were forbidden to unite with Germany (until 1938 when an agreement was reached with other western powers), and the only reason this changed was because the Germans there all voted for one party (Sudeten-German Party); before that time (the 1930s), there was active discrimination against Germans there.

Also worth noting is that you contradict yourself; of the land that was given to the Czechoslovaks to form their new state, not all of it was historically Bohemian; if it was historically Bohemian, and not newly Bohemian, then there wouldn't have been such a large German minority there. The land given to them coincided with some hundreds-of-years-older Bohemian territory that had long since ceased to be a legitimate Bohemian boundary and had been German for longer than it was Bohemian; nonetheless, the land was still given to Czechoslovakia in spite of this. German land inhabited by Germans was stolen and given to Czechoslovakia because the land had had some Czechs in it during the Middle Ages; that is an aggressive and anti-German act.

Doubt someone who's stupid enough to think that the massacres of the Germans in the Danzig Corridor was a lie would be capable of cognitive thought in the first place, though.

>>15782219

>marxism = socialism

>nazi = socialism

Is this bait?

>>15784537

Not to argue with your statements but I don't really think the part about German minorities existing there meant it was or was not Bohemian clay, IIRC there were plenty of German minorities living under Soviet territory and the United States of America who had to either convert to the majority culture or got killed or exiled because of their ancestry. I believe this was also true of Polish and Prussians.

>>15785196

Not only was the Sudetenland majority German and Bohemia proper inhabited by a substantial German minority, Czechia as a whole was actually majority German, which is why they had to make up Czechoslovakia. Czechs were a minority in Czechia and Slovaks were a minority in Slovakia (although unlike the German majority in Czechia, Slovakia had no one majority but a bunch of minorities - Slovaks, Hungarians, Poles, and so on). There was no justification for the Sudetenland to go to the Czechs, nor for Upper Hungary to go to the Slovaks, nor for Ruthenia to go to the Slovaks.

So the Entente stitched Czechia and Slovakia together into one frankenstein country, Czechoslovakia, in which the new made up Czechoslovak ethnicity would be a majority, and all the other ethnicities would be denied their right to self-determination.

It would have been completely reasonable to establish a Czechia without the Sudetes and a Slovakia without Ruthenia and Upper Hungary and given all the other lands self-determination - north half of Sudetes go to Germany, south half to Austria. Upper Hungary goes to Hungary, Ruthenia made independent, Polish parts of Slovakia go to Poland, as does Tesin. Self-determination preserved. Similarly the German parts of West Prussia should have gone to Germany (but Poland allowed to get a route to the Baltic Sea), Alsace should have stayed with France but Lotharingia gone to Germany. Transylvania should have been partitioned along ethnic lines between Hungary and Romania instead of given wholly to Romania.

The new German-Danish border was about the only reasonable thing to come out of WW1, the rest was pure idiocy.

Had the Entente actually been serious about ethnic right to self-determination and not just been using it as an American excuse to dismantle monarchies and an overall Entente excuse to weaken Germany, WW2 would not have happened until Soviet aggression forced it. And by that point the world could unite against Communism.

>>15784537

>if it was historically Bohemian, and not newly Bohemian, then there wouldn't have been such a large German minority there

German minority was there due to a policy of Ostsiedlung, but all of the land had historically been part of the Bohemian kingdom. If you're gonna go "majority means it belongs to them" then you're just being a hypocrite, since Germany itself then annexed lands that did not have a German majority. I'm also gonna need some sources on that poland shit

>>15785322

> all of the land had historically been part of the Bohemian kingdom

All of the land had been historically part of German nations for close to a thousand years, first in the Holy Roman Empire of the German Nation, then in the Austrian Empire, which was German. It is also worth noting that there was no actual Bohemian kingdom when the Carolingian Empire rolled around, just an assortment of tribes which were annexed, and then organized into a duchy and finally elevated into being a kingdom by the Germans.

>>15785371

>HRE = German nation

>Austrian empire = rightful German clay

So you're a Germaboo. Got it.

>>15785402

To be fair, the official title of the Empire was 'Holy Roman Empire of the German Nation' after 1512, but you could finagle about that being a bit of German preeminence and a bit of 'We lost Italy and Burgundy so we may as well emphasize that in documentation'.

>>15785371

"Holy Roman Empire". This is a very difficult thing to say while keeping a straight face. I wonder who can, because indeed it is hard.

"Holy", you say, while grinning like Voltaire did. "Holy", it is it's name. But then, thinking of "Holy", you think about all the emperors who were excommunicated. You think about all those who tried to fuck with the pope. You think about the wars of religion and how many of them ended up as protestant heretics.

But then, the funniest is coming. "Roman". Yes, now. You cannot contain your laughter. “Roman”, it is called, despite the fact that this “Roman” body is standing on Germania, a land so harsh and poor that the Legions of Rome refused to set foot on it. A Germanic and barbaric people, yes, but still calling themselves “Roman”.

And now, here is the end of the fun: “Empire”. Now you fell on the ground, laughing so hard that you cannot breathe. An “Empire”, a body made of dozens of petty duchies and counties, all fighting for themselves, giving strange names to their position, full of Grand-Dukes or Archdukes. An “Empire” who will stay between Poland and France, while the great powers of Europe will create colonies all around the world.

>>15785410

It's still just a name, taken at a time when Bohemia was already under Austria personal union. Despite that, the kingdom of Bohemia wasn't dissolved up until the founding of Czechoslovakia, so a claim that it didn't exist or attempts to discard it are just plain lies.

I find aruing with Germaboos tiring, because they're liars. They never tell you their actual position which is "Germany über alles, anything Germany does is okay by me". They're ashamed of their position for some reason and try masquarading it behind other pretexts so as to look more objective, but of course will go to great lengths to deny the fact that Germany did the same things they accuse others of.

Seems about right.

>>15785474

Nobody has claimed, anywhere in this thread, that the Kingdom of Bohemia didn't exist. What you are claiming is that it wasn't part of German nations and so somehow the German majority living there under German rule should have had to been moved to living under Czech rule. Czech governance over the region under the authority of the Holy Roman Emperor and later the Austrian Emperor - thus, self-determination as they're living under German authority at the highest level - is hardly the same thing as living purely under Czech oppression.

>>15785527

One key hang-up here, everything else regarding Woodrow Wilsonian hypocrisy stands.

>Transylvania should have been partitioned along ethnic lines between Hungary and Romania instead of given wholly to Romania.

Because of the ethnic lines, you can't do that so easily. Southern Transylvania is full of Magyars, while northern Transylvania is full of Romanians, completely flouting any reversal of Trianon as worse than pointless. And creating a weird double-exclave situation is bound to get messy and satisfy no one, though probably no worse than the Second Vienna Award.

The correct thing to do would be to hand off the small Hungarian majority strip on the border, and then effect population exchanges between the north & south as the Carol II line is gradually demilitarized, important material salvaged and its guns poised easterly with some of the old casemates rendered into logistical depots, rather than hastily abandoned and totally scrapped by Hungary. Once you do that, Hungary can receive a sizable portion of Northern Transylvania that is now Magyar majority, while Romania does not suffer under an arbitrary diktat.

Yeah, it would have been atrocious border gore. But if it isn't partitioned along ethnic lines, then the whole "self-determination" thing falls flat on its face and one must admit that America in general and Wilson in particular simply hated Hungary for having a king instead of being ruled by oligarchs.

New Mexico as rightful Russian clay just sounds silly, which is why I posted it. I don't expect you to change it. Although I'm curious what makes the game think Russia = Anglo names. Like, would the same thing happen if I blobbed there as Spain?

>>15787334

>Although I'm curious what makes the game think Russia = Anglo names

Simple, it's just a decision to change the names back to their original 'state', the names those provinces would be if they were under USA rule, because they're supposed to be under USA rule after 1845 or whatever.

> Like, would the same thing happen if I blobbed there as Spain?

You'd get the same names as Mexico. Basically I added two decisions: One that gives you Spanish names and another one that gives you what the USA would use.

If you're curious enough, I've added several decisions to give Russian names to all the Russian claims in North America (Columbia and all the way down to California), most of them are made-up, but who cares? Also you can rename Hawaii as Russia (Because they, or rather just one guy, attempted to take over the Archipelago.)

Because I wasn't gonna make 6 gorillion native cultures to represent the natives living in the Perija mountains, as well as those in the Llanos and Delta Amacuro, so they're better off under the umbrella term of 'Northern South American Native' it's more generic than Guajiro, but less generic than Native American Minor.

>>15788725

>>15788707

I mean if you wanted to keep the 12 gorillion to a minimum whilst still adding glorious bloat you could draw a line with literal whos like the Pawnee on one side and honourary relevents like the Lakota/Guarani/Cherokee on the other.

Even as early as 1920 when there was an actual fucking coup d'etat attempted no one wanted the fucking Kaiser back.

Why the fuck do they think a generation that grew up without him would desert to put him back into power?

I know how pointless and retarded it is to criticize this after all their other nonsense, but it really vexes me somehow.

>>15803272

it's for the memes, anon. Paradox doesn't care about the history behind it

will anons make an accurate version of the TNO shit?

>Thread is almost over

>No one has dropped the question yet

So lads, is Holy Fury good?

>>15803703

May possibly be an unpopular opinion, but yes. HF is overall a decent DLC, and how almost all DLC should have been. Adds a slough of new features (mostly idea's taken from Mods however) that make the game better.

>>15803703

It is alright although the initial excitement has worn off. It's just as imbalanced as any other new DLC - This time because of Warrior Lodges. Don't try to send your martial genius guy off to war and expect him to come back any better than before if you're not a lodge member. In fact, chances are he'll just develop PTSD.

reminder that if you don't disable matrilinear marriages in your games, you're a shitter

>>15803703

It's alright but most of the features are simply stolen from HIP anyway and Paradox somehow made them worse. I still wait for HIP to be updated before I will truly go back to playing CK2 once again.

>>15804837

But believable worlds!

>>15804837

What exactly does that do? Does it improve the AI in any way?

>>15805176

it's more historical and prevents your from just matrilinearing all your daughters to blob your own dynasty, thus making inheritance shenanigans a bit more difficult. Above all, however, it makes dynasty trees look a lot less retarded.

Historical revisionism. Paradox wants to push some kind of narrative of National Socialism not being supported by most Germans, and of German monarchism having been non-authoritarian.

How bad is event spam in Holy Fury? I've heard they added a bunch of "flavor" events as usual.

>>15805403

Tell us more about it, anon. What's better than EU4 in it? What's worse?

>>15805614

Disable pregnancy flavor for starters. It can bankrupt your realm if you're a lowly count and turns what should be an easy and automatical process into a never ending event spam. Children's Crusade, Shepherds Crusade and Child of Destiny are huges memes too. Get rid of them as well.

>>15806794

I guess there isn't a game rule to disable all those events? I'll have to rename/delete the files with those events, right?

I don't get naval combat in Darkest hour. The Russian ships appear, sink all my transports and then disappear completely from the map. My own ships also take fucking weeks to move.

>>15809326

you're probably mixing slow and old ships in your fleets with newer models or something

>>15809326

Build a fleet of 1/3 aircraft carriers and 2/3 heavy cruisers, then park it outside the enemy's largest port and wipe out their entire fleet with port strikes while they do nothing to counter you. Use whatever shitty starting fleet you have to escort your transports so you don't have a dozen divisions drowned by a lone destroyer.

Improved combat my ass - Holy Fury made it a fucking death sentence for your character to actually go out and fight and anyone else will just end up a disfigured depressed stressed celibate. Fucking Paradox.

>>15809363

I'm yet to lose a single battle duel. Maybe it's because I usually choose combat focus unless I'm RPing or going for some specific objective.

>>15809382

Are you in a warrior lodge? Those are the only guarantee against shit results in battles.

>>15809396

Nope, playing as orthodox.

>>15809358

>>15809422

I don't have carriers, it's the 1904 scenario.

>>15809430

I just lost another 19 Martial 40 Duelling character completely randomly, so… Fuck this shit.

>>15809326

DH AI cheats and doesn't have to consider naval range – it's infinite, which is why they can send ships to ridiculous distances. It gets really obnoxious if you play Japan, since you need to island hop but the enemy doesn't.

An easy and cheap way to dominate the waves is to just spam subs. I think that's just one or two techs to keep up to date to have the best subs, they're cheap as fuck to make and don't take all that long, and you can stack as many of them as you want. I heard carriers and shit are even more effective than that, but there you need to take fleet composition into account and need more techs to stay up to date, so I just spam subs which reliably obliterate the enemy navy every single time.

>If it is daily, it means in a week of battle this commander has 19.65% chance to die. At 22th pulse the chance this character is still breathing is just above 50%. And that's just death. We have same chance to get face cut off or fall into coma and 50% more likely to get maimed.

Somebody on Leddit looked at the code and found this shit, so no surprise there.

>>15810104

Does Paradox just assume every general charged head first into the fray?

>>15810008

Stack all your best ships into one big stack. Put transports in that stack. Then all you can do is pray the enemy won't target your transports during battle. That's the best way to protect your transports without carriers.

>>15810125

They changed the way events work and this resulted in characters with BETTER stats getting fewer good events like improved martial experience… Which only leaves the bad events like maiming, disfigurement and death able to trigger.

>>15810148

This is also why being a lodge member tends to protect you from bad events, since it lets other lodge-related events fire.

>>15810148

So if I get this right, now it's just a chance to trigger (any) event, and which event it is is then picked from a set?

Why the fuck would they do that? That's a fucking step back.

>>15810233

Here's the full Reddit thread in question:

https://www.reddit.com/r/CrusaderKings/comments/a1v9yc/do_you_feel_like_you_die_more_in_battles_thats/

They split the event lists and that seems to cause most of the issues.

So yes. It's picked from a fucking set. What the actual fuck possessed them to do that?

>>15810260

>>15810264

>Hussite HRE

Does that have any special events tied to it? Do you get to actually enforce the Hussite demands on the Church, rather than settling for the (historical) compromise?

>>15810303

Technically at the 1444 starting date the Hussite wars ended, but you get a choice to have a Hussite resurgence. Which basically makes EVERYONE pissed off at you and the pope will often excommunicate you.

Sadly the events pretty much stop once Protestantism and Reformist hit hard.

Maybe if you stick to being catholic?

>>15810314

>hussite resurgence

But Hussites didn't get obliterated, they got tolerated (as basically the only catholic heresy pre-reformation). So how can they "resurge" if they were never gone in the first place?

>Sadly the events pretty much stop once Protestantism and Reformist hit hard.

That's why I figured. It's a shame since Hussite Wars is one of the things that could actually make great alternate history event chains, but of course Paradox is too lazy for that.

>>15810437

There are some more events tied with it, but it's basically for memes.

>>15810279

>>15811508

>but still, miles better than the kurds

just kill em all

I have come to the conclusion that Holy Fury is a meme-tastic expansion that at its core fixes nothing and makes many aspects of CK2 worse than they were. It all looks good on paper but it really really isn't. Enclave settings do fucking nothing, the AI is still utterly incompetent at fighting wars, the new elective voting AI is just as bad as before. The game has reached EUIV levels of retarded design now. Good job Paradox.

>>15815002

>the AI is still utterly incompetent at fighting wars

It's incredible that even after all this time, parashitters are still incapable of making a decent war system. Consider:

>CK2

>AI dumber than a brick

>Big enemy? Blitzkrieg his borders and win one battle before he assembles army. Congrats, you won.

<EU4

>AI sort of competent, still easy to outsmart and rape

>War score actually makes se-

>war needs to take several fucking years for the AI to accept white peace even if it's losing badly

<Victoria 2

>>15817197

What version?

>>15817317

v1.44 Beta 0.55

>>15817365

I don't remember which version he fixed that Gran Colombia decision, but I think he did fix it, at least as a separate GP sphering those nations and then forming GC.

>>15817406

I believe the issue was with Zulia, Federalist Venezuela, and the United States of Venezuela. My guess is that if the last two lack any cores, you can't own all their cores, and since they don't exist, you can neither sphere nor puppet them. Zulia having cores everywhere didn't help.

>>15817518

You are right, that is the problem with the decision I referred to earlier.

>>15817197

>>15817681

Yeah, I fucked up. Here's a couple hotfix files so you don't lose your save. Simply unzip and paste over your mods folder.

Just reload an older save and replay.

>>15817799

There is some problem with an event regarding UK, USA and Venezuela as well. Playing as USA, Plea from Venezuela event fires saying something about UK bullying Venezuela too hard and "muh Monroe Doctrine". Option 3, taking Venezuelas side, has crashed the game 3 times so far, going to try some other things now.>>15817799

>>15818803

I think I found the error, I didn't comment out some information text on the event. Thanks anon.
