/gsg/ - Grand Strategy General

I think that production lines is one of the best mechanics that paradox could have implemented, it should be in all games

What do Anti-Aircraft guns do in HOI4?

Not the division level ones, but the ones you create in the construction screen

Kill yourself and take your rainbow coloured star spangled game with you

>I'm playing with the AI research and production mod

Literally nothing. I mean they shoot down planes but the amount is minuscule.

is there literally any reason not to set national borders on linguistic lines

>failing the global revolution this hard

EBIN :DDDD

>Unironically losing s USSR

Just literally walk your shit to India and Indochina and take their rubber from there.

>I don't have enough oil and rubber

if only there was something you could build that provided literally both these resources in great amounts, and if only the USSR had large amounts of IC to build them

idiot

looks like a real rubber meets the road moment for the soviet union huh

Shoot down planes.

Unless you plan of Roleplaying and not expanding then they are never worth it, just build more military factories instead and up your fighter production.

Xth for britannia being rightful norman clay

You ckeeky cunt

...

wew

Why is the capital of Belgium in the congo?

there's no synthetic rubber though

sounds like your parents didn't have rubber when they had you, either.

Is HPM still here?

t. steamgroup

>R&I autist falseflagging
He did it again guys, give it up

God, why was Mussolini so ugly. At least some of the Nazi elite had a certain air, but he just looks like some stupid hired muscle

Is steel über alles in the newest HPM?

>he just looks like some stupid hired muscle
all Italians look like that

Fucking finally

Question

Is there some culture or whatever that can have multiple wives in CK2?

Like the Indians, Mongols or Muslims or whathaveyou, those people can have more than one wife, right?

Why does the AI in V2 mobilize every time it ends up at war?
It's completely retarded for a country to conscript a fifth of its population in 1860.
Mobilization should barely be a thing until Great Wars come around.

how in the hell do I create a faction as democracy on hoy 4?

I did the "why we fight" focus yet I still cant create a faction as it is greyed out telling me I need to get national spirit first..

how many more threads are you gonna ask this retarded question

Until it gets fixed

>It's completely retarded for a country to conscript a fifth of its population in 1860.
no, it's not

>fix
>AI
well memed

consider fixing yourself first
no sense in spreading those retard genes

>ACW is going for 4 years already
>my navy is shit and none of my allies have a decent navy
>I need to research two techs just to get the ability to build lvl 3 naval bases to build ironclads
End me

>Mobilization should barely be a thing until Great Wars come around.
>what is Levée en Masse

Welp, being reactionary isn't as easy as I thought with all those penalty events one after another.

synthetic oil plants literally produce 5 oil and 2 rubber each

>not playing with the industry meme mod

REALISM

Plan to do a grand campaign as the dutch duke of Holland. Rate my goals for ck2
>Form Frisia with de jure + all of Lotharingian territories
>Be HREmperor 3 or more times
>Participate in all Crusades
>Have a dynasty member hold the Kingdom of Jerusalem for 2 or more generations or till endgame
>Free Iberia from the muslim hordes and have Portugal ruled by my dynasty
>Have a dynasty member become pope 2 or more times
>Have dynasty members hold 5 or more kingdoms

Any other non-Gimmick goals I should go for?

Muslims can have more than one wife, and most non Christians can have concubines, which are basically wifes but their children get opinion modifier.

How is having synthetic rubber plants unrealistic? Companies make 56 billion dollars worldwide using purely synthetic rubber

>comparing today to ww2

>B.F. Goodrich Company scientist Waldo Semon developed a new and cheaper version of synthetic rubber known as Ameripol in 1940. Ameripol made synthetic rubber production much more cost effective, helping to meet the country's needs during World War II.
>The production of synthetic rubber in the United States expanded greatly during World War II, since the Axis powers controlled nearly all the world's limited supplies of natural rubber by mid-1942.

Talking about synthetic rubber being produced by synthetic oil planets lad

Any cold war mod for paradox games? Is EvW with the mod playable or is it fucked beyond hope?

I have always played 1066, Charlesmeme or Old Gods starting points in CK2. Is there a nice start date after those ?

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbonylation#Reppe_chemistry

shut up retard

even the Soviets had state-run synthetic rubber plants by the late 1920s.

The Nazis never looked this good though t b h

Nice.

see It adds separate synthetic rubber plants

Shit I need a coaling station, otherwise I will never get to China

I will conquer one of the Yemeni sultanates for Socotra, that will do nicely

Most of them were ugly old fucks, that's for sure but at least some still had the looks of prussian nobility

Germany alone produced hundreds of thousands of tons per year of synthetic rubber before allied invasion.

>imblying you need a coaling station

>prussia goes over the infamy limit
>gets DoWed by Russia, me and Austria all at once
>fucked over obviously
>Now Poznan declares independence
>plan on taking the Left Bank decision and liberating the Rhineland as soon as the truce ends
FUCK GERMANY

>suddenly, war ends and I won
Shit I didn't even know I wasn't the leader
We won, I'm taking Kwangchowan for that sweet silk

Still going to conquer the yemeni fucks

My ships are taking attrition out of the ass, I need a place to stop so they can recover

At least it's better than being killed by Muslims.

>not seeing Carolus rise

I got to agree that those exclusive 40's song they produced sound really good.
Any idea on which artist they hired?

>that Hitler face
>that caption

Looks clear, no arguments here.

>tfw you will never be the British king-in-exile after Operation Sealion in Canada, slowly rallying the disparate British expats of the world into an all-volunteer British division
>tfw you will never return to your home in 1949 at the head of a US invasion, retaking London street by street, as the English resistance rises all around you
>tfw you will never give a victory speech from the ruined remains of Buckingham palace to the cheering adulation of a war-weary population
>tfw you will never visit the grave of HRH Elizabeth and your children, who were murdered by Nazi agents crossing the Atlantic as your family fled Britain

Not an argument.

How the fuck did Ethiopia turn into a shithole after a single Communist revolt after it wuz kingz n shiet?

t. reddit

>turn into a shithole
It went from being an overtly feudal shithole to a de facto feudal shithole, literally nothing changed except the imbecile in """""""charge""""""

Anyone care to share Geheimnisnacht mod for c*ck kings 2?

there was never a point in time when any sub-Saharan country was not a shithole

Ethiopia has an average IQ of 63. """Mild""" mental retardation is defined medically as ranging from 50-70.

>Ethiopia has an average IQ of 63.

Pls no. Africa is a shithole, that's a fact. No need to bring shitty memes and pseudoscience into it
