/gsg/ - Grand Strategy General

How fares your empire, /gsg/?

This day in history, May 13th:
1787 – Captain Arthur Phillip leaves Portsmouth, England, with eleven ships full of convicts (the "First Fleet") to establish a penal colony in Australia.
1848 – First performance of Finland's national anthem.
1940 – World War II: Germany's conquest of France begins as the German army crosses the Meuse. Winston Churchill makes his "blood, toil, tears, and sweat" speech to the House of Commons.
1948 – Arab–Israeli War: The Kfar Etzion massacre is committed by Arab irregulars, the day before the declaration of independence of the state of Israel on May 14.

Thanks, just saw that in the OP didn't bother ot check. Good to see gsg is as autistic as ever.

It's sad HPM decided to drop his mod :( I wish someone would pick it up.

he didn't tho

>fresh install of victoria 2

>ck2
>try to imprison someone
>fail literally always
this game is fucking rigged

Clean your map cache

delete map cache

Stellaris bois where we at????

crashes on creating rivers

do i delete cache or the stuff inside?

it's pretty bad as it is now and it has it's own thread

I'll be pro-stellaris in about a year, shit is so barebones it's bad

pls buy dlc

Will KR ever get updated again?

fuck that, I'll pre-order hoi4 at most

>buying games from companies who practice this

loving every laugh

Yes

Most of India is independent and they went back to shitting on the streets, not a single one is westernized.

Most of britains colonies are controlled by communists, while the mainland is largely controlled by facists.

Britcucks seek peace with Hitler after he storms through France. It is not found. Preparing my troops for the German invasion of Soviet land - biggest grand strategy boner I've experienced yet.

Is a Sino-Japanese anti-communist alliance a good idea or should I just puppet the Chinese and be done with it?

In HoI3 at least, puppeting the Chinese costs manpower and leads to the IC that I gain being used inefficiently because of revoltrisk and non-core penalties, whereas if the AI was left with it, the IC could produce divisions that could help me fight through Siberia. What do? I usually just fight the Chinese and then take whatever I can get but I wonder if anyone's tried the other route

Is this HPP?

>42% chance to succeed
more like 0.42%

But Hiltler was the one who proposed a peace offer and the anglo rejected it, what is this revisionism?

>Actually reasonable diplomacy options in HoI3

u fukn wot m8

>modding HOI3
>not building IC as USSR

>In an attempt to help out people with less endowed computers we have added a ton of settings to graphics where you can lower texture resolutions and turn off visual features. You can for example turn off all 3D models leaving you with just counters.

Glad to see they finally caved one month before release.

It's actually a modification of HPP made by the infamous Rob. Dare I say, I would recommend it. There are a few more events and they are actually balanced, such as the peace deal between the Allies and Germany as shown, which don't appear in the regular HPP.

Edward VIII is still king in the UK. If you know what that means...essentially he was a sympathizer of National Socialism so in this save he would have pitched the peace deal but to no avail.

Literally cannot wait for HOI4 desu ne.

You don't actually need so much IC. As you can see from the screenshot, I have troops prepared in the interior which are like two levels of reserve troops. I'll be fine with the divisions available from the beginning. The USSR can stomp the shit out of Germany when it's a human player, but not so much when it's AI in HPP.

I'll be mad if they don't use NATO counters.

any good tutorials for hoi3 to read through? especially military) the ingame one is dog shit

Fuck off rob

Well, this isn't good.

There's a guide in the archive

Is King of Dragon Pass a grand stratedgy game?

Delete the files in victoria 2/map/cache folder and the my documents/paradox/victoria 2/hpm folder

lad it was like 2 months ago when they changed it

might just ironically unironically pre-order. hoi4

Rate Europe

Why pick a fight with Russia anyways? Should've blobbed further into SEA and then into India. Or did they pick a fight with you?

has the Power & Revolution - Geopolitical Simulator 4 crack come out yet?

So where do I blob now family? Keep in mind I'll finish eating Algeria once our truce expires.

develop your land and build liquor factories

I wanna do an Anglo-Saxon non-Christian megacampaign, what religion should I do it as?

Take Sardinia

It has a Catalan minority on it

So I wanted to go and buy DLCs for CK2 and EUIV since i've been enjoying myself so much in Stellaris and finally have friends I can lure into playing GSGs with me

fucking 500 maplebucks for the whole set? what the fuck
im pirating this shit

>Rhodesia
noice

>no corsica
>no sardegna
>no sicilia
>no napoles

The game crashed when I was about to take a picture but Sardinia got fucked by rebels all game and has like 50k pops on the entire island now, no visible Catalan minorities left either.

>Dat Argentina

How should I build my first race in Stellaris, /gsg/?

Barbarossa begins. Iran lends us the northern part of their nation for easier transport of troops. Mobilisation is in progress. All is well.

>when people post their Vic II pop screen but the largest pops don't appear in the screenshot

FUCK YOU

Druidism

please answer

The monarchies of portugal and brazil have been unified once more

Brazil completely outnumbered the portuguese invasion force, but they stupidly chose to get baited into defense battles.

huh?

What provinces in Brazil are good for defensive battles?

Wish me the best /gsg/. I'm going to need it.

Anywhere with a jungle and river.

please answer.

project your idealism onto this alien races so you can fantasize about arriving on their home world as an immigrant and being genetically uplifted into their own race.

ok I want to be a huge shitskin that just coerces the less dominant sexes of other races into sexual intercourse for entertainment.

>You will never play a megacampaign from 300 BC until humanity explores and colonizes space

>tfw all you see is 500 size grossdeutsche aristocrats

As the former colonies of spain could not consolidate their on-paper boundaries very effectively, portugal has decided it will resume its colonization of the new world.

hahaha holy shit

Am I allowed to shill my mods here?

I made a mod where you can select different national languages for character names (European, East Asian, or more specific like English, Italian etc). Ship, planet and fleet names aren't done yet though.

It'd probably go well with the whites only mod.

stone age to iron age GS when?

Wrong thread
