/gsg/ - Grand Strategy General

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/?

This day in history, August 8th:
870 – Treaty of Meerssen: King Louis the German and his half-brother Charles the Bald partitions the Middle Frankish Kingdom into two larger east and west divisions.
1588 – Anglo-Spanish War: Battle of Gravelines: The naval engagement ends, ending the Spanish Armada's attempt to invade England.
1863 – American Civil War: Following his defeat in the Battle of Gettysburg, General Robert E. Lee sends a letter of resignation to Confederate President Jefferson Davis (which is refused upon receipt)
1908 – Wilbur Wright makes his first flight at a racecourse at Le Mans, France. It is the Wright Brothers' first public flight

Lad you won already, RadYug is no more. You can relax a little now, there's no need to make threads early

Reminder anarchic liberals have a place in V2.

JUST

What an ugly city

> anarcho capitalists come from them
[citation needed]
> would leave the "left" spectrum with 3 parties to make coalitions
Which is exactly how it works IRL? I know reading /pol/ and TVTropes gives you all the knowledge of the world you require, but at least humour me.

FUCK YOU REEEEEEEEEEE WE WUZ CATHOLICS N SHIIIIIT

Reposting from last thread

Anarcho Liberals aren't supposed to be anarchists but extreme liberals. That is home Victoria 2's ideological spectrum works, you have the ideology then you have the extreme version of that ideology and then you have Fascism which is the 3rd way. (HPM has explained this before) Bourgeois Dictatorships represent shit like the Reign of Terror in France where the constitution was suspended in the name of Liberty.


Please say this when a non autist newfag asks you why Anarcho Liberals are in the game.

discord when

Is this you?

>tfw you try to make the German R but end up spittin an chokin on ur coke

Give me some examples of historical anlib parties and movements.

Nothing? So I thought.
#rekt

of course not

R&I alliance wins again

As long as liquor kiddies continue to exist, the R&I alliance will claim every new thread.

Your obviously a newfag and don't understand how Victoria 2's ideology system works. Whenever someone tries to tell you, you kick and scream while calling them "teenage /pol/tards".

Now please join your friends at /r/paradoxplaza where you can complain that "muh ideology" isn't in the game but Anarcho Liberalism is.

Looks like Sim City 2000

>Which is exactly how it works IRL?
Yep, you are 100% retard.

> don't understand how Victoria 2's ideology system works
I do, I just consider it ridiculous "believable worlds" nonsense. Just because it's in the game doesn't mean it's good, lad.
> calling them "teenage /pol/tards"
You are, though, don't try to deny it.

> equating anlib with classical liberalism
You're even dumber than I thought.

Inform me about alcohol

>He unironically posts on /pol/

You didn't read did you? It's the only way you keep this going anyway, pretending to be a retard.

I personally like it. It represents all sides of the spectrum without having to much clutter or "muh speshul forms"

Also i wasn't aware that defending a game mechanic made me a "teenage /pol/tard" thanks for clarifying.

>he doesn't shitpost on every board

/pol/ is like 50% of this general, the other half being /int/ and a small Veeky Forums minority.

don't forget the 0.5% of /a/ users who post here

>and a small Veeky Forums minority.

> You didn't read did you?
I've heard enough aynclaps talk about ancient origins of their precious ideology to not take any claims towards that direction seriously, yes.
> It represents all sides of the spectrum
Even the nonexistent ones. Especially the nonexistent ones.
> i wasn't aware that defending a game mechanic made me a "teenage /pol/tard"
Given that this is /gsg/, calling anyone at all a teenage /pol/tard is a pretty safe bet, you have to admit.

I only post there ironically

Yeah, you are just trolling. You keep this going by ignoring anything that proves you wrong.
I take comfort in knowing no one is retarded enough to agree with you.

Well, most people left here for Veeky Forums. Not the the other way around.

Historical discussion here took a big hit when Veeky Forums was created.

I agree with him, I can just see you're also not worth meaningfully engaging with.

Or people who just like grand strategy games?

Don't you fucking label me.

Can anyone help a dumb fuck? I'm having trouble with the CK2 on the archive. It crashes on startup. I've tried the 3DM crack and the skidrow one too. Same story with both.

Oh, and do I need the beta patch?

Maybe if they'd finally make a decent /gsg/ set in antiquity

Well no wonder it's absolute shit!

>Veeky Forums nearly destroyed
Veeky Forums didn't give a shit.

Reminder that anarcho-liberals and bourgeois dictatorship are reddit-tier memes created by Paradox only defended by ancaps who want to keep their never-tried-before special form of ideology which is pandering to retards worse than lefty pol.

>muh balance
Anlibs never get more than 5% UH, which are votes they take from the liberals anyway.

>muh equality
Where are the fascist moderates?

>muh Terror
Not how it worked, not ideologically similar, not in Vicky's time-frame.

>muh left anarchism
Equally as dumb, anti-nation-state ideologies cannot be rightfully represented and thus shouldn't be in the game.

>muh flavour
Their parties are made-up for 90% of the game's countries.

thats referring to when rad yugo spammed simpsons porn threads, killing pretty much every slow general.

I did that too, still fucks up. I'll try doing that again later. Too tired of this shit right now.

>not in Vicky's time-frame.
It should be though. Vicky 3 should include it.

Read the readme, it's supposed to crash the first time. Then you run the game normally.

> using a single easily googlable nick for everything

What even is this?

One teen doxxed another??

Hail to Odin! Hahaha

Rate my Scandinavia guys what do you think? christians btfo

Vicky should start at most in 1815, so no.

babbies first blob

>CK2
It's shit

> Vicky 3

lol I bet you guys are some butthurt christians or smth. I reformed the norse faith u mad ?

Yeah I read it and tried a couple of times, doesn't work. Maybe I'm just being a fucking idiot here.

>On the other hand I like having the option to make Japan OP as fuck by taking 100+ factories in 1937.
1938*, I underestimated how long it would take to capture the US. I think a more skilled/knowledgeable player could do it much faster than me though. In retrospect I think I could have blitzed along the southern border in order to reach the eastern US as quickly as possible, attempting to secure naval ports along the way to make sure supply doesn't run out as the US cuts off my connection with captured western states.

Also it's a gamble whether or not Germany will start WW2 while you war the US so you need to capitulate the US as quickly as possible, or resistance in a mass war will render those 100+ civilian factories almost useless.

> I reformed the norse faith

ok

>thats referring to when rad yugo spammed simpsons porn threads, killing pretty much every slow general.
Is that what happened? I remember some generals I frequented vanishing oddly but never knew why.

Alas.

The city centre is actually pretty lovely on street level.

Why isn't this thread being shat up with grandiquor?

Where should I expand next?

In Kaiserreich, when you release the Soviet Union as a puppet, you get an event to give them control of Siberia, right? How long does it usually take for that to fire? I've been waiting almost a month and it hasn't yet.

I'm the Combined Syndicates, if it matters.

Balearic Isles. You must restore the Tyrrhenian Antediluvian Empire to its former glory

Ok so what are my objectives now?

Baleric and Carthage, maybe.

Balearic Isles, then Crete, then Cyprus, then Iceland.

Conquer Libya and some Balkan territory like all the other unoriginal Italyfags
OR
go west and blob into Francee

Miss Alice best Alice

What the fuck man. Why is the AI so retarded? Isn't this shit reparable with simple checks?

Blob into Greece and then Turkey. Don't touch the Balkans until you're finished with them.

>turkey doesn't get cores on all of central asia

Neat. Any more like this?

Tunisia, Trent, all of Dalmatia, Aegean Islands, Cyprus, Crete, Thailand, Shanghai, Suez, Lebanon, Malta, Baeleric Islands.

I wish, I just found it on Veeky Forums.
