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 23th: 622 – Muhammad and his followers completed their Hijra from Mecca to Medina to escape religious persecution. 787 – Second Council of Nicaea: The council assembled at the church of Hagia Sophia. 1180 – Manuel I Komnenos, last Emperor of the Komnenian restoration dies. The Byzantine Empire slips into terminal decline. 1645 – Battle of Rowton Heath, Parliamentarian victory over a Royalist army commanded in person by King Charles.
The problem is /gsg/ is entering a civil war between the old guard and the kiddos. This has always been inevitable and, sadly, the result is inevitable. Many people have seen it coming before now. There are two groups on /gsg/, everyone is in one of them, to varying degrees. There's the faction that only likes old paradox games before they started jewing and shitting up their games and there's the new, reddit inspired lads who like the new games, stellaris, HoI4, etcetera. These kids hate old games like vicky2 and HoI3 because they don't understand them so they shit on them. You can see this evident in their tired impotent memes, they rag on Vicky for having no economy outside liquor, despite the fact any factory can be profitable with the right techs and rgos but they're so casual they have only played an hour of Vicky before dismissing it. The newfag faction will always win. HoI4 was released, then stellaris and everyone has flocked to the new games. We are at the eye of the storm, lads , just before the complete victory of the shills/redditors. We must vehemently defend our general to the dying end. We must fight the reddit beer and magistrate memers, we must fight the welp actually just preordered faggots, we must defend our culture for as long as we can. Do not go gently into that good night.

Alright I have been putting this off for the entire time you've been doing this, over a month now, atleast. I am really fucking annoyed by this meme. Victoria 2 is a great game, by far the greatest grand strategy of all time, in no other game can you manage an economy, your pops, your diplomacy, your taxes, your army and your sphere of influence at the same time. Victoria 2 takes every element of every game and makes it great. Your pathetic fucking mana/dynasty/OoB/insert single issue game simply can't compete. I've tried playing them, believe me. They are pathetic. You play them and you only have to manage one, maybe, two things. Hah, what is this mess? It's a botched job. A complete write off. And sure, if you like that sort of purile simplistic shit then more power too you, it's not my job to kick down your sandcastle. But why must I spend my time arguing this with you? Just because Victoria 2 is too complex for you doesn't mean it is for everyone. And when challenged you crawl back into your same abhorrent memery, because that's all this is, you don't have the slightest clue what you're saying or who you're messing with, because if you did you'd stop. Go back to playing your blob simulator, little man, because this general belongs to us. The true strategy gamers. Not your lame, disgusting casual shit. And you know the worst part? We can't even meme back. Hell, I'm sure there's some really overpowered trade good in EU4, but we can't say "hurr durr naval supplies" or whatever because the simple fact is nobody has played your favoured game since EU3, back before they dumbed it down for people like you. So well done, my friend, you made an intellectual victoria 2 fan MAD. You've achieved your greatest feat since you formed grossulmiums, mark this on your wall as a victory for your abysmal existence because I can tell you now, kiddo, this is your peak.

Is AFPG here? Can I request a flag for a Fenno-Mongol colony in Greece?
