Incoming butthurt.

tgruica and Cobraaah lose as usual, just like they are massive losers in real life.

>Can I make my tributaries into vassals eventually through diplomacy?

No, you really shouldn't be doing that on anyone but merchant republics, as all it does is give you half their income forever and a commitment free alliance with them; and you might or might not keep them when you die.

they do technically count as part of your empire, but not your demesne, which has the effect of having your title name on the map go over their lands, while their lands stay their color.

Thanks for killing /gsg/ a little more every day

What a bloody hell of a war that was. Not by difficulty, but by insane amount of people killed. Wave after wave of Chinamen crashing into my troops trying to hold a zone for ticking warscore.

That shit always makes me feel bad when you have to remove the historical friend buff

Fucking madman.

>Historical Friend
They were historically rivals though. Whole reason Portugal always stuck around with the UK.

BLACK ICE IS __FUN

1× respectfully disagree

1× Agree

1× Helpful

It's to stop Castile from blobbing in Portugal every game, but there's nothing to stop France blobbing in Spain every game.

Yeah, that's what I thought too.
France loves to blob in spain and the UK

Respectfully Disagree x1

Because Wiz and Podcat are unrepentant ouiaboos

1x disrespectfully agree

How do I make a tricolor heraldry in CK2 like the French or Italian flag?

Can I ask you something?

What's the point of your mod?

Is there any modder who isn't regularly declared dead?

fun?

>f*n

I'm not trying to meme you so please don't meme at me. It's a serious question.
I gave your mod a try because I thought it was an interesting idea but literally nothing interesting happened. I'm wondering if I missed something or if the fun part comes later and I quit too soon.

HPM dislocated his shoulder after he made the fascist Rio Grande do Sul flag too ugly

I dunno what to tell you, you pick one the storyline countries and then watch the railroads unfold, if you're not into that then maybe read an aar of someone playing it? there's a lot of events for a lot of things to happen, into the endgame. they might take a while to kick in I guess.

Who did you pick and how long did you last? I think Krupp might take into the 1850's for serious stuff to start happening.

When I read this, I exhaled sharply and it made me cough.

When I read this, I laughed a little bit but I didn't cough.

The point is to play a European nation in east asia, so you get all the blobbing potential of an east asian nation without having to do any of the westernizing first.

>blobbing
For me, this was the tip-off that you're a moron.

For me, this was the tip-off that you're a moron.

I played the Krupps but I don't remember how long I lasted because it was a few months ago. I decided to stop playing when the UK declared war on me and it didn't feel worth the effort. It could very well have been before the 50's. Now that I know there is actual content ahead I will give it another chance.

Are any of the companies particularly content-rich or should I just pick whichever I prefer?

For me, this was the tip-off that you're a moron.

Krupp is by far the most fleshed out, though if I were you I'd just wait for version 2.0 from that user, there'll be some other, probably better stuff in it along with basic bugfixes.

The mod is neat, and I still really love it but it was my first project from years ago, before I really knew what I was doing or HPM existed so it's buggy, unfinished and not great in places.

Bavaria has upset the balance of power and conquered Bohemia. I am considering a Great Holy War to reclaim it, but I do not wish to involve the Romans.

HPM, I had an idea for a "reverse manifest destiny". The reason being that the land out west was uncolonised at the start, still full of Indians, in the event America becomes shit it would make sense for Mexico to expand into it, and makes a really fun game for a player. Here's the sort of conditions I think it would be fair to take it:

>Mexico is a GP
>USA, CSA, FSA, or any of the other american tags are not GPs
>ruling party is not pacifist
>Mexico owns all of it's cores
>literacy is atleast 25% (White man's burden and all that.)

If you agree they could have a decision after this, once they capture these cores, to expand to the "natural border" of the Mississipi river. That's a bit more controversial though as there were Yankees and Dixies there from start and some of those places are US states at start, it was sparsely populated though.

The reason I suggest this is because I played a Mexico game and America makes those places states in a few years, meaning every single one costs 11 infamy to take, which would mean 121 infamy for all of it, which seems excessive for a lot of deserts and mountiains where nobody lives. Alternatively you could make a North America specific CB which allows them to be taken for about one infamy each, but that could lead to Britain blobbing into the American west, which would be too memetastic.

How's your Russian

>that fucking face

For me, this was the tip-off that you're a moron.

The word "Disrespect" never appears in that post you fucking moron.
