/gsg/ - Grand Strategy General

Reminder that SteIIaris has its own general and discussion of the game doesn't go here. Thank you.

We don't have an official steam or discord group. If anyone posts in the thread about any "official" or not steam or discord groups, promising MP or not, be sure it's a shitposter group known for organizing raids and shitposting in the thread. They are known for false-flagging.
Report and ignore it.

How fares your empire, /gsg/?

Steamgroup absolutely BTFO, will they ever recover?

pls buy

So I tried to install the DLC for EU4 through the Crack that's available on MEGA.

>> check if the DLC is activated then exit the game and copy over the original files from the Original Files folder and replace the cracked steam_api.dll with the original one.

The DLC was activated - then when I replaced the steam_api.dll with the original one it disappeared in the Game menu (however the files were still in place).

With the other steam_api.dll I can launch the game fine, however it behaves very oddly at times.

Torrent for HOI4 pls

Just leave the cracked files

The great spanish explorers are the first to reach the south pole, bringing glory to our nation.

At the same time, Ecuador accepts membership into the West Indie Co-Prosperity sphere, although declines the military alliance portion.

Mark Wolff here, vanilla?

"SHUT UP BITCH I KNOW WHAT I'M FUCKING DOING I WON WORLD WAR TWO I AM A GOD I DON'T NEED TO TAKE THIS SHIT DON'T MAKE ME THROW YOUR SON OUT THE WINDOW AGAIN"
She probably only stayed with him because he threatened suicide or agreed to an open marriage or something

DLC WILL FIX IT

PLS BUY!

I know the leather club is two blocks down, you don't have to remind me.

For some odd reason, granting the County of Finnmark to one of my subjects turned the place into ''Grand City of Finnmark'', I have absolutely no idea why this is, but now the vassal had the negative opinion thing called ''Wrong government type'', so I thought maybe that's a one time thing and had him killed, but his heir also has the ''wrong government type'' negative opinion modifier.

I don't understand why this is, I did nothing while conquering the County of Finnmark differently as I did when conquering other places, so why is this placed called ''Grand city'', when it has only one holding which is a castle like I have everywhere else, and why is it ''wrong government type''? I don't get it.

And you guys said quill was bad, quill haters btfo again

Don't talk to me or my wife's son ever again.
If you think so donate to my paetron :)

marcoan7onio_ is the most competent hoi 4 streamer there is at the moment right?

If u have at least 10 sub's you got hoi4 for free

On June 16, 1934, after months of intense fighting, the capital of the Heavenly Kingdom, Tianjing, is finally captured by Beiyang China. Weeks of intense street-by-street fighting has left the city a wreck, and the Imperial Palace is little more than a smouldering ruin after the constant gunfire and artillery barrages the Chinese have fired upon it.

The current Hong ruling the Heavenly Kingdom has been forced to abdicate and had all his wealth seized by the Beiyang Chinese, but he has not been executed. During the long rule of the Heavenly Kings, they moved many within China to convert to a sort of syncretic Protestantism, wherein the Hong dynasty was seen as blood relations to Jesus Christ. Over one-fourth of the Chinese people publicly profess to follow this creed, and, although the Chinese warlord states are pushing hard for a return to normalized Confucianism, the Beiyang clique, at least, is all-too-aware that killing the Emperor, a relative of Christ, would only lead to a rebellion for the restoration of his position.

Instead, China enters into a period much like Japan did during the Shogunate; now defeated, the ex-Emperor is removed to the Beiyang capital at Peking, for "safekeeping," and to "oversee the maintenance of the Christian people of China" from the safety of the "capital of China herself." What this really means, of course, is that the Hong dynasty has become a puppet of the Beiyang clique, to be used to legitimize their conquests and pacify their peoples.

In late 1934, the Congolese government in Kananga undergoes the same "growing pains" that the government in Namibia did. Having previously been a British colony and still being presided over primarily by Britons, these Germanics do not wish to subject themselves in any means to the Party's control. Prior to the Purge, which eliminated five million traitors to the French state, the Party had been relatively lax in its position on the Congo, as it saw it as little more than a "German-infested jungle" which would take too much effort to liquidate. Now, however, Napoleon V has made it clear that he desires total control over any Germanics in his colonies, and so orders the imposition of total Party control in the state.

Predictably, the British living in the Congo are not impressed with this proposal. Unlike the Namibians they cannot consider a reunion with their previous overlords, landlocked and interior as they are, but they nevertheless seize the capitol in Kananga and proclaim a "Republic of the Congo" contrary to Napoleon V's Empire of the Congo.

Napoleon V is not all that impressed with the show--he simply orders his colonial garrisons, already in position on the border, to invade and put down the British rebels.
