>HOI4
I retract my previous () statement. You can fuck straight off.

Read the actual statement about it, lad.

Help my copy of Victoria 2 is bugged. Only liquor factories are profitable and my pops keep eating cement. How do I fix this?

I guess it's okay then. Maybe.
But that doesn't change the fact that this general is pretty much /pdxg/. You should put AGeod games and Gary Grigsby's War in the East in the OP.

>so far four major dlc have been released: conquest of paradise, wealth of nations, res publica and art of war
pls update

Why? All other expansions have pretty much all been shit.
The last even remotely fun patch was Common Sense.

>EU4 not banned
wew....

At least is gsg...

>Trash is acceptable
>a good-looking game that is both /gsg/ and 4x is not

Makes sense

>EU4 is gsg
I wonder who could be behind this post...

But stellaris is not gsg

Blah, blah, blah. Let's scratch /gsg/ and make it /Pdxg/.
No discussions necessary.

But then we'll have to include stellaris

So what?
We won't get around Stellaris posting either way, you faggot.

>general that explicitly bans stellaris posting as evident in both the infopic and the OP
>still gets stellaris'd
Wew lad, first day on Veeky Forums?

>implying mods will do anything

Jesus, your bait is pathetic.

>17 posts
>3 posters
KEK, nice "poomunity" you've got here

>implying it matters
All that matters is it's technically breaking the rules, even if it's spammed here our values still refute it's legitimacy.

Also, commenting on the state of moderation is a banable offense :^)

Try harder next time, see you

Enjoy your ban.

It's 4 now ;-)

r8

What if Washington accepted congress's offer to become king, lads?

Show policies

I'd like to but I literally stole this from /r/Victoria 2 for content.

You motherfucker

We must keep the t. /gsg/ seed flowing, lad.

I'm just starting to play Victoria 2 again after a few years, what should I play and what should my aims be?

Play France and extend to the Rhine. The annoying Algeria events don't last too long.

Very well

What I'm currently working on is updating my ck2 save game into 1.6 eu4

That's a groß Muscovy.

>casual scum
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

That's a really nice end game, did you start from 1337 or something?

Allowing wastelands to be coloured might be ahistorical as fuck but it looks gross.

In fact, since I'm remaking the localization file, does anyone wants to suggest new missions?

4u


I started in 1066, this was the endgame

>anything besides Vic 2 allowed
>unironically EU4 in the infopic
epic thread me lad.

>that nappy ass Jerusalem
Why are EU4 provinces so shit? Why do they randomly stop in the middle of the Sinai?

So, uhh, I must've missed some drama

What's the difference between the 2 threads?

t. false flagging false /gsg/er
Enjoy stellaris, babby.

Wew. What mod?

Blame paracucks, I even tried to fix some provinces

Bonus trianon borders


It's HIP

/gsg/ is nothing but stellaris posters and other casual paradrones, basically /r/paradoxplaza. This place is the real OG shit.

>>>/paradoxplaza/

DELET THIS

Do all HIP games end this nice? I tried installing HIP once but it wanted to overwrite shit so I chickened out. Does it run well?

Sorry lad

Here, have some Arpad

Are Navarra and Spain the same dy asty?

Let's see religion, lad.

It slows down a bit at higher speed but generally it runs ok.

To get the nice borders I used the "lucky ruler" trait: basically you can give AI ruler this trait which gives them something like 10+ to all stats, +10% morale, +10% troops and +60 vassal opinion


Yes


Gimme a sec

stellaris leak when

monday my senpai

I need to fix some provinces, like northern finland and those catholic provinces in muscovy should be orthodox, also the nation above jerusalem should be catholic

>fetishist
wew
Cultures in Britain, pl0x

>HoI4
>worst paradox game ever

get the fuck back to your consumer goods slider and railroaded lack of diplomacy

I haven't changed them yet but what I plan to do is remove the welsh in cornwall and maybe make a new culture for the kingdom of the isles in ireland

>welsh in British group
Fuck paradox.

t. proud sheep fucker

Not sure if meming but leeks are nothing like British. Same reason Breton shouldn't be in the French group and Basque shouldn't be in the Spanish group.

I also ran a couple of test games before 1.6, if anyone is interested I have some screenshots

>Cromwell dynasty
Wait, do they eventually become a monarchy or do Republican dictatorships get a dynasty? Because they really shouldn't, they're still technically republics

In that case they stayed a monarchy

Bonus dutch falkland

I'm not familiar with the history events in EU4, does Crommie get an option to become king? That's wildly ahistorical.

I honestly don't know either, but knowing paradox I wouldn't be surprised if that were the case

Bonus french philippines

>those frames around the rivals
What mod?

FUCK YOU JOHAN AND YOUR MEMESASTERS

name my literal miracle baby

If you're going for a meme run Mohammed. If you're serious, John.

William.

I'm using the theatrum orbis terrarum mod with all it's add-on mod plus a revolutionary borders mod

Bonus norwegian cape

Who owns Oz?

Charles

What's oz?

Aus. Australia.

I have only this pic of australia

>that NA
hnnnnngngnngnnn

And then this happened

I sure do love the random revolutionary flags

FUGLY
U
G
L
Y

I know, jesus christ

Bonus random map

This your game?
Why didn't you take all of India?

mod?

Why won't I form a PU on the death of this lad? We're both habsburg and I have more prestige.

claim it

Already have.

because you're at war / spain is at war

I was planning to, but then the 1.16 patch destroyed my saves and my mod


It's a converted save game from ck2

Wew, really? That's fucking retarded.

meant for

>>[V2] unHPM v1.3
pastebin.com/zK3YrpNx

Shame. Any sort of European raj looks gross.

Thanks unHPM.

So, is this a meme thread war or is this shit for real?

/gsg/ has always been shitposting general.It's always memes my man.

Hopefully for real, and to point out that 90% of threads were stellaris shitposters.

Well, I tried to have a gross colonial empire in asia rather than in the americas

This is the last pic I have from test games and, to be honest, I have no idea why I saved it

>those pathetic drawn on mountains even though the map is 3d
For what purpose?

Nah, it's real. The other thread is full of reddit casuals so something had to be done. We only allow posting of proper history games, not space fantasy 4x jellyfish simulators.

I have no idea m8, everything in vanilla looks like plastic, I just wanted something different

I tried. I got shat on by infamy. It was going well too, got almost everything outside the Netherlands.

Fixed now we're all at peace. Going to have to fight France for it but it should be okay as Castille will be on my side and defence is easy.

You know what to do lad

I am conflicted between choosing Despotic Hegemony and Science Directorate in Stellaris, which one you think is the best?
