How fares your empire, /gsg/?
This day in history, March 25th: 1000 – Fatimid caliph al-Hakim bi-Amr Allah assassinates the eunuch chief minister Barjawan and assumes control of the government. 1199 – Richard I is wounded by a crossbow bolt while fighting France, leading to his death on April 6. 1807 – The Slave Trade Act becomes law, abolishing the slave trade in the British Empire. 1941 – The Kingdom of Yugoslavia joins the Axis powers with the signing of the Tripartite Pact. 1949 – More than 92,000 kulaks are suddenly deported from the Baltic states to Siberia.

>hospitals only help with preventing disease spread
What a ridiculous, backwards mechanic. They don't reduce the effects of the epidemic, they don't make the disease clear out sooner, they don't do anything else useful except provide you with 0.00003 technology points and +something opinion with bishops (lmao) at the highest level.
A million ducats and couple thousand tech points after you've built a hospital and upgraded it to level 5 it might prevent the epidemic spreading into your province, or not - halting your development, killing your family if you don't shut the gates, suffering a devastating peasant unrest after they blame the Jews and/or depopulating your province and removing ALL your prosperity modifiers AT ONCE. Fuck this shit.

My Britbong playthrough, latest HPM no cheats or exploits. I regret releasing Rhodesia, it doesn't even come as a puppet. Canada also became GP and I lost puppet status which was annoying.
On an aesthetic level the Cape to Cambodia is pretty pleasing, but the Empire looks really Africa/Asia heavy. I think the only way to get it to look truly good is to Annex the carribean and Guyana, and then somehow annex all the dutch colonies. I think you could do this by breaking the infamy limit in the 1830s and fighting off the coalition wars while Britain is strong and the GP's are weak, adding wargoals to take all of the initial french, dutch and maybe american colonies, then resetting to 24.99 infamy when you win and letting it burn for a bit. You can only efficiently blob if you get lucky, the uncivs don't westernise before you can annex them with that cheap 5 infamy establish protectorate CB you get in the lategame, or the oriental crisis goes in the direction that lets you claim the levant for free. (I don't actually know why that happens)

Nice, did you get them all from the core integration events? Or does Rio grande do sul have some decisions for cores? Also be careful about those fascist, you need a surprisingly small amount of fascist to get the fascist coup event.

I'm pretty sure that you can take the Levant if Egypt wins the Oriental crisis. Because you need to protect muh eastern christians.
Also did you somehow annex central Asia or is it a puppet?

Hey gsg I want to play as a country with a very small population, and use it to blob into Africa,
My idea is roleplaying as an evil and very rich dynasty that starts colonizing Africa for using the niggas as their slaves since they don't have enough people back in their homecountry.
What country should I play?
Cameron Moore
Belgium obviously.

>what are the conditions to get a NAP You must be laying down or sitting, eyes closed, and not doing anything active. >Do allainces only last for one war, and why can I not offer non aggression pacts with all marriages What game? If you are talking about CK2 you get non-agression pacts from marriage automatically. Alliances last until conditions for the alliance are broken, but you get opinion penalty for calling ally into war.
Aiden Hall
What does this mean, and also r8 the Byzantine capital
Austin Myers
yes ck2 but not all marriages, it says 'desires better NAP' as reason for no marriage, but when I hover over the NAP icon it says' 'We would get no NAP from this marriage

funny you'd say that as I'm now building upgrades into holdings rather than just saving up to put 2 cities 1 bisphoric 1 castle in each thing Or should I fill up holding slots and then do upgrades. I'm just worried about further wars atm, and really want to break free from the Pictish yoke
Colton Harris
So far, so good. Going hard on the early push, before anyone can build forts
Andrew Cooper
> 2 cities 1 bisphoric 1 castle in each thing Build only castles in you capital and hold them yourself.
Austin Watson
>not following user's advice and setting vassals to 1/4 limit and prioritising a retinue to have an authentic mediveal play through to each their own user
Tyler Morales
If you control two good duchies and don't plan on relocating then you want to build the towns and walls first for the bonus income, then additional holdings in the counties you directly own since barony-tier vassals don't count towards your vassal limit and generally aren't nuisances, only contributing bonus tax and levies.
Ryan Martinez
thankyou user

Annoying siege against against Cyprus and their fort. At least I knocked out aan ally of the Hospitallers
Adam Murphy
they finished off byzantium, and then got gangbanged by bulgaria, venice and hungary, oushing them back to constantinople. Ottomans then tried to invade georgia and got hit by revolts, and imploded into a bunch of smaller states. Bulgaria became stronk and nabbed constantinople. Karaman and venice took turns raping the ottomans and here we are
