How fares your empire, /gsg/?
This day in history, July 9th: 1776 – George Washington orders the Declaration of Independence to be read out to members of the Continental Army in Manhattan, while thousands of British troops on Staten Island prepare for the Battle of Long Island. 1944 – Finland wins the Battle of Tali-Ihantala, the largest battle ever fought in northern Europe. The Red Army withdraws its troops from Ihantala and digs into a defensive position, thus ending the Vyborg–Petrozavodsk Offensive.

>Is there any reason to NOT automate trade? Actually having a stockpile of shit you WILL need at some point. If you're merely civilized you'll want to buy all the shit you can get, esp coal and other stuff for factories (otherwise you'll end up with a factory taking goddamn decades to be built), munitions, small arms, etc. If you produce a lot of a particular good you might want to stockpile it until you get factories that turn it in profitable stuff.

The year is 1066, my vassals attempted the 15th civil war for increased council power. I don't know why but they keep trying and failing over and over again.
Why the fuck is this?
Also, why does all of my fucking lords all seem to have strong and weak claims all over the place within my realm? Duchy titles are constantly shifting back and forth, and there doesn't seem to be any calm in the realm ever.

Just replace EU Rome with HoI4. Nobody plays it anymore.

Reminder there are still a ton of meme Unions that should be removed in HPM.
Poland-Lithuania >literally never existed in the 19th-20th century >Lithuania would never agree to a compromise
Gran Colombia >Bolivar's Union ended in 1821 for a reason, to many differences existed between the Colombians and Venezuelans
Arab Union >lack of Arabic nationalism
Scandavia >different currency,language and cultures
Tocouler Empire >historically implausible a Westernized African Nation would take most of Western Africs
Turkestan >not likely to happen
Wew why do these nations still exist?

When will he remove the German union? France never would have let that happen, and why the fuck would Prussia of all places unite the Germans? It's bullshit. Don't even get me started on China.

My only complaint about this is that Germany moved probably half of their army into China instead of preparing to war against Poland, France and UK, OR simply attacking the mostly empty western flank. I'm sure they get BTFO and leave me against rest of the world alone. I don't think I would have needed AIs help there when USSR was fighting with their Purge debuffs, they didn't attack very often.

>destroyed the Roman Empire must be a pretty shitty empire if some unorganized tribesman can destroy it
Tyler Richardson
Nice false flag btw
Angel Turner
Listen I don't want meme unions I want historical plausible gameplay and balanced multiplayer.
If you want to keep shit like Scandavia and the PLC. You are no better than the people who ask for Iberia and the steam group shitters.
Sebastian Martinez
Is it just me or is CK2 more enjoyable when you get a really shitty king and still do well despite the odds?
This queen was crowned into a regency as a hobbled midget with a 26 intrigue aunt who wanted to kill her and she ended up being the best of her line so far
Brody Brown
Nice falseflag
Leo Foster
By those standards, France, Germany, the Russian Empire, Italy, the United Kingdom, China, Switzerland, Spain, Austria and many more are all "meme unions", especially in the nineteenth century before more concerted efforts at language standardization.
Oliver Phillips

PLC should not be in HPM and you fucking know it. It had not existed in 100 years and had no chance of forming
Brayden Martin
At last, I can truly say I've become a master of grand strategy
Lincoln Young
I know that feeling.
This happened after one of my better kings died. Got saddled with a regency and a civil war with this kid, who ended up getting some pretty shitty traits (glutton and cruel, most notably), but I managed to hold it together, and now I'm almost done conquering the Deccan Empire's dejure land.

Scandanavia would then have Danish,Norwegian,Swedish and Finnish language speakers. How would they communicate then. It's not like any of there languages are similar.
Colton Hill
I'm more concerned with your dismissal of Scandinavia, which was no more linguistically or culturally divided than Italy and which might have formed similarly if the political circumstances were different.
Evan Lopez
Most countries need to stay in their own area.
Noah Bailey
Watch out, the autist will call you out for being a shitposter because you are criticizing HPM
Benjamin Allen
They're all (except finnish) mutually understandable Finnish children all learn swedish in school (even today)
Matthew Gomez
As I pointed out, the same was true of Italy, France, Russia, and to a lesser extent Germany.
These languages are all on a relatively small spectrum of mutual intelligibility that certainly wasn't out of the ordinary for "national" unions during the period.
Aiden Rogers
This actually looks sort of neat
Daniel Rogers
>answering seriously Lads he's that guy who is butthurt about iberia not being in the game, he's not serious about this Arguing with him will also not change shit, HPM will never remove any of the shit he wants
Carson Lewis
Danish, Norwegian, and Swedish I can understand but Finnish?
Liam Nguyen
Like clockwork
Blake Rogers
You don't need Finnish to form Scandinavia in HPM, you actually need to exclude them
Leo Bennett
I'm playing as Republican Spain and I can't figure out why my divisions are at like 10% strength constantly. I've only got 3 military factories working, but Nationalist Spain seems to have full strength divisions with no problems.
Anthony Brown
Yeah, Finnish is obviously excluded, and low and behold, Scandinavia as represented in the game generally forms without Finns as accepted pops.
Caleb Rivera
>implying I want something as ahistorical as a Iberian state Icelandic and Finnish are not anything close to the Swedish/Norwegian/Danish Language
Brandon Perez
t. Report and Ignore
Easton James
Yea for some reason Italy was a bro and didn't do that bullshit, they saved Nationalist Spain from certain doom while Germany was moving their army to chill to some desert/plains next to Sinkiang and Mongolia and they're not doing anything now, just digging trenches I guess.
Next they probably declare a war on Poland with their army in China, drag Allies into the war against me, get wiped by Poland and France and then I'm fighting UK and France on top of USSR, I don't probably have enough factories or manpower for that war. Or maybe I do if I abandon my Pacific defenses(10-15 divisions) and move them on Indian border. Then it's a fight to the last Chinaman and after that Jap. youtube.com/watch?v=e4OPSaX1PxM
Joining Axis was a mistake, also provocating USSR that early by attacking commies was a mistake, I didn't think they cared about China at all.
Anthony Edwards
I play it you uncultured swine
Blake Price
Reminder that the celibate, chaste and homosexual traits should have no effect on fertility for non-ruling female characters (such as spouses).
It literally makes no sense.
David Long
And even if something as ahistorical as Scandanavia ever forming how would the currency conversion work would they adopt the Swedish riksdaler or the Danish krone or would they create a new currency all together? Either way a union of 2 countries like that would result in inflation of whatever currency they use.
Benjamin Anderson
And Finns aren't part of the Scandinavian Union in game.
Icelandic is relatively speaking close, although certainly farther than the big three. Icelanders can understand a good chunk of speech from most of the others, but not the other way around. Again, there's plenty of precedent in the nineteenth century for speakers of "dialects" with barely any mutual intelligibility with the standard form of the language becoming parts of a national union.
Michael Gonzalez
Icelandic is also not required The guy doesnt even play the mod
Lincoln Thompson
>expecting anything else from steamgroup shitposters Just report and ignore
Kayden Martin
Iceland is already a part of Denmark in 1836. If you form it in the game you inherit it anyway That's like having Scots,Irish,Welsh and English and telling me they are the same
Jose Reyes
But you don't need them to form Scandinavia If the Danes can manage Icelandic why the hell would Scandinavia not be able too?
Luke Sullivan
>Implying I'm steamgroup Yeah if I criticize the ahistorical unions in HPM I'm definetly a steam group member and a shitposter. Iceland is a colonial province, that's like saying because the Brits own parts of Pakistan they can form Arabia.

It's not hard to win that war, just assume the control of your puppet's armies and play defensively.
Hunter Sullivan
I did dismantle them. It's why Brittany's independent. Either way, they didn't recover. By the end of the game, they were a Communist Dictatorship that went through about a dozen revolutions prior.
Brayden Sanders

Why don't people remove the countries they don't like from HPM instead of asking for HPM to remove it for everyone?

I'm currently playing EU4 1.16.3 + M&T 1.24.5 on a 2.20-GHz Intel i7, and it runs at 40 FPS paused and 10 FPS unpaused. M&T 2.0 is purportedly not any slower than M&T.

So if I critize HPM I'm a shitposter? Your a pathetic piece of shit Report and Ignore. Why don't you do something productive with your life other than shield HPM from attacks all day and get a job and not be a fucking sperg. HPM is human. HPM is not perfect and his kid is far from perfect. However it is one the best mods for Vicky2. Why don't you get off your high HPM horse and fuck off and stop sucking HPM's cock 24/7
