/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, September 18th:
1066 – Norwegian king Harald Hardrada lands on the beaches of Scarborough and began his invasion of England.
1739 – The Treaty of Belgrade is signed, ceding Belgrade to the Ottoman Empire.
1812 – The 1812 Fire of Moscow dies down after destroying more than three-quarters of the city. Napoleon returns from the Petrovsky Palace to the Moscow Kremlin, spared from the fire.
1914 – The Irish Home Rule Act becomes law, but is delayed until after World War I.
1931 – The Mukden Incident gives Japan a pretext to invade and occupy Manchuria.

I like this pic of him

hes got a very skinny waist/trunk

was the king of england a beta male?

Now that ck2 was fixed, what will be the next dlc about?

CK2 was never broken, you simply needed to wait to buy more DLC for it

>falling for the steel meme

Yes it was

>HoI4 patch out
>Nothing on le pirate bay

>buys eu4
>pirates the dlcs

is it possible?

I dunno m8 first you'd better tell me who you're quoting.

whew lad

jesus

is /gsg/ finally dead

dead thread

of course mate
its the only sensible thing to do

hastebin.com/raw/moqugasume

get dlcs only and use the 3DM crack from the 'cracks' download

Reminder that shitposting is the foundation of Veeky Forums.

Danubian Mitteleuropa look? Red designates puppets and green represents the spherelings I intend to carve out.

Also, can I create United Baltic Duchy as Austria and if so, what would its state religion be?

Stop posting maps here

Does this look like the map posting general?

You can create the UBD.
I think they would be protestant.
It looks good.

give me a ck2 kingdom to play

play as finnish count convert to jainism and form great empire

Wtf?

Count of Aargau

Greece can now "intervene" in the crimean war with the Russians when it comes up by sending aid to them, funding rebels, or entering directly into the war. If Russia still loses, the monarchy gets unpopular and you can either stay with Otto or go for George I

If you go with George I Britain will give away the Ionian Islands for free, but if you stay with Otto you will either have to buy them or have 200 relations

Does it have to be a kingdom? I get the most gratification out of starting small and becoming somebody.

eu4 constantinople or ck2 georgia or vic2 chile?

vic 2 chile

ck2 georgia
establish an epic paulichreich

>tfw tried doing exactly that, but character got knocked on the head in battle and died a couple months later before he impregnated his wife

Lost interest after that.

Is /gsg/ looking forward to Civ 6?

same simple shit, with even less game mechanics and complexity i'd wager

nice try johan

Not sure if this is the right general.
I'm looking into ROTK XIII and NA: Sphere of Influence, and was wondering what people thought of them. I'm familiar with the novel and history of the former, but am also interested in the Sengoku period. I've never played a Koei game before so I'm not sure what to expect.

It's kinda allowed here though people don't really talk much about them. I remember seeing some people talking about NA but there's no consensus. The consensus for ROTK is that it's better than XII but worse than XI which in turn is worse than VII (or was it IX? I don't know, the one you can rise from an officer to emperor).

The earth is approximately 6000 years old and God exists.

I'm going to get banned (because fedora mods) so make sure to copy and save this post.

Truth does not fear investigation.

I'm a duke in the HRE and another HRE duke is raping a couple of my counties. There's been a lot going on and my levies are pretty much wiped out. I don't face a ton of gold either but I can hire holy orders. Will holy order troops fight this invading duke or no?

No

nope
ur fuqed

No unless he's from another religion.

yes

Go business focus and hope to god you get that business deal event, then spend it on mercs.
Don't forget to look around for vassals and courtiers loaded with NEET bux, and see if you can get them ransomed or banished.

>business focus
I usually forget about this one, but will do, thanks.
>NEET bux
What did he mean by this?

I meant money piled up.
Also, start looking for some allies in the HRE who'll back you up.

Though, it comes with the slight risk that they'll go full retard and revolt against the emperor, which is what happened to me when I allied Bavaria as some Dutch duke, and this was during the version that forced you into wars with your allies.

don't you inherit the money of unlanded courtiers who die?

I think so, so you can try killing them off.

Steel factory was already there when I released from Britain. But you're right, it's been nothing but a waste of craftsmen

Based Cobra

thanks alex

Fairly new to CK2.. just wondering: If I start in 769, will historical dynasties appear dynamically throughout the game, or am I "stuck" with the ones from 769?

If they're not in 769, yes, they do not magically appear.

Uhhhb

because of the very low historical accuracy in the 769 start it is unlikely as ever for another resembling historical to form by 1066, which is why it's a garbage starting point and you should never start before 1066

Don't play anything other than post-Standford 1066 desu

And now pan over to western europe non-white

t. incest pro

do i want to update my ck2? is the new dlc shit? i heard they added coalitions and shattered retreat?

Is this worth saving or should I start over?

That's the second latest dlc. The newest one is pretty good as far as I can tell. I don't like the mechanics you mentioned too much, but I haven't found them to be very punishing, and you can turn them off at the start if you don't want them.

>added coalitions and shattered retreat?
That was conclave, an entire months ago user.
You can turn it off.
New DLC is better than average

>an entire DLC ago

>not even zoroastrian

Escort yourself to the recycle bin

>check how's the CK2 after the long break
>can disable bullshit features
>can have small, comfy, prosperous kingdom now
>they actually allowed me to blame jooos for the plague, the absolute madmen

Has reaper's due fixed the game?

so i need to disable conclave and the usual and the newest dlc is actually good?

>becoming a filthy moslem

It's more broken in favor of the player this time around.

No, it allows you to disable the shit parts (or most of the shit parts) of conclave before you start a game.

idk

Now onto the russkies.

So how do we fix HoI4?

Just downloaded 17.1 Europa Universalis IV, but can't load MEIOU and Taxes : it stops at "Processing Flags" . Any way to solve ?

You just need to download the fix here: uninstall.exe___________________________

Uninstall your life

Based uninstall your life poster

Some day mate

>the sudden realization when i remembered i've been educating any and all children based on characters with the highest learning stat

Why won't EU4, HOI4 and CK2 load their respective DLCs? They just randomly stopped working. Help me /gsg/

buy the field marshall edition and it'll solve your problems

see

If my liege owes me a favor, I know I can have him repay it by pressing one of my claims, but if that title is currently held by another of his vassals will he do it? Or only if the title is outside of his realm?

Why is there so little interaction between Vic 2 mechanics and the player?

because Victoria 2 is a meme game

Because you're from Reddit and need to go back.

Rate.

I tried an alternate history playthrough where France randomly blobs into everything and then liberates Prussia cuz it misses them.

>importing liquor

based

liberate polan

I'm roleplaying a france that doesn't construct liquor factories in every province and let's capitalists handle everything because this game is EZ.

But reddit loves Liquoria.

>lets capitalists handle everything
>Fascists
lad...

I can't even play eu4 for at least 50 years without getting memed on
>poland declares on hungary
>my alliance web is worth shit because I can't call them in, so its me, brandeburg,hungary and bosnia against poland, lithuania, bohemia, bohemia's vassals, denmark, sweden and norway
>polacks just allied two countries and that was enough to bring in half of europe
>muscovy donates 100 ducats
epic, but that's not enough
And I can't even advance further because the next step in my master plan is getting bohemia, but poland can easily crash my empire with no survivors because of their bottomless pit of manpower. And if I don't advance quickly, the turks will arrive and rape Hungary.

I don't know why I bother tbqh

you are so fucking bad

I cannot imagine being this shit LOL

>when eu4 is unironically more challenging than liquor sim

What did he mean by this?

He probably meant that vicky is a meme game
