/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/?

Old Thread

Reminder to report and ignore shitposting.

Do we have a release date for the new CK2 DLC?

Based

When the fuck is paradox going to fix institutions

Probably 2-3 months.

:^)

never the redditors at paradox plaza and in the forums are praising it as the best thing ever.

Never.

When they figure out how to make it a whole DLC

The most up-to-date version is in his pastebin newfag

It's fucking dumb as fuck, west africa gets better tech than China.

Didn't they already do that?

MP WHEN

WE MADE FIRST MODS DELET

Next time try to make a proper thread.

They did, but they'll do it again.

Fuck off

Any good mods for EU4 or HoI4?
Tiring of vanilla but I don't know what to play.

What

Sadly neither have good mods

third oddysey is pretty fucking good
extended timeline if you want to take your autism to new heights
and there used to be more good mods but they are outdates since paradox cant stop on updating this old game.
purple phoenix is good for a byzantium campaign

MEIOU if you can handle the bloat and awful map
VEF if you have no standards

Kaiserreich is alright for HoI4, but it's still in early alpha.

>make a thread 75 posts earlier
>ask mods to delete other threads
wew

>extended timeline
Should be renamed to extended masochism mod desu

Are you kidding, KR was shit in DH its even worse in hoi4

t. the Eternal Anglo

See the release announcement.

t. commie

How long does it take for GP alliances to clean themselves up? Prussia is allied with Netherlands and the Anglo which is scaring france from joining my next war to give them napoops dream of a rheinland free of germany.

Not him but i see shit all about a date there.

You don't have to be so defensive, Jacques.

Depends on the AI changing priorities, there isn't a set date for it to happen.

>Jacques
>english name

10 years

Fuark. Queen victorias flag is giving the Prussians their alliance which is fugging me. I might just tag to France and accept my call to war as Prussia. A little gamey, but the system is malfunctioning with them having two GP alliances.

Delete this thread mods, please

legit someone host a mp game either napoleon legacy or hpm.

That isn't a malfunction.

>mods deleting the thread everyone's using
Why would they do that?

Them having Netherlands and the Anglo is causing the AI to fuck up and get scared to join the conflict.

>cheating

That isn't a malfunction.

Is it actually viable to form a country as a puppet for your empire? Does it net you more brigades than keeping the clay. Can you fight wars for your puppets cores?

What game

Vicky 2

>Does it net you more brigades than keeping the clay.
No, why would it?

>Can you fight wars for your puppets cores?
More or less with the free peoples CB

W-why is nobody posting in the steamcord thread?

>no R&I as the first post
That's how I know I shouldn't post there

>Does it net you more brigades than keeping the clay.
>No, why would it?
what them not having to assimilate soldier pops?

What?

...

Fucking gross (especially since I'll be doing a mega campaign)

Nice old image, was I supposed to give a fuck?

Ck2 deals with inheritance in a retarded way

...

I feel dirty

>becoming a Mediterranean nigger while playing Brittania
What is wrong with you

You should, give up on Germans and focus on the balkans

they'll recover and destroy you. You didn't take a very valuable state. Should've released rhineland

>Mediterranean nigger
Explain?

...

The portrait is mediteranean, aka negro

...

Oh shit, my bad lads.
Silesia is actually more valuable since its a cheap target that makes your border with the Germans small and easy to defend. Rheinland requires 95 war score to demand which is quite a lot in that first war. I quickly overwhelmed the Prussians in this second war, destroying their armies in the east letting the french charge up through the corridor.

Shit I just realized.
F racial purity, the price of "genius" wives.

...

much better, please post more prussia cucking

...

Victoria 2 A.I is piss retarded. But for the banter you should create gross austriums, annex all of germany without actually becoming germany.

Does DH have better ai than hoi3?

wtf is this meme my middle class is getting 100% life needs 0% everyday needs and 100% luxury needs. I'm also rank 1.

no

a bug or a shortage

liquor is hard to come by

I'm conflicted. Should I carve up more of Prussia, or start eating up my sphere to keep Bavaria from becoming GP ever?
I could take Posen/Westfalen from them next.
Westfalen I would probably seize as a state, then release it as a satelite. Get the bonus influence on Rheinland from bordering a satellite. Posen would give me delicious poolish pops when I go danube.

What you should do is 1v1 me, I'll be prussia and you austria.

I'll show you REAL quick prussias true power in the hand of a prussia pro...

morons

To an extent. Since theres less provinces the AI does better and I've seen a few successful naval invasions in KR.

What to reform here? Peonage seems like the most obvious answer, but doesn't the krakow event involve peonage for free?
Its a cute idea, probably gonna just remove poles from them to protect their cuteness and whiteness from Ackbar inviting swine.
Goodbye currywurst

>wahhhh wahhhh why didnt people post on my thread 78 early

Allow slavery

ripip

enslave the serfs.

how do I fix this "shortage"?

>wahh wahhh the proper thread had to be made early because i was so autistic to make mine 80 replies early wahhhhhh

>two threads
R&I just couldn't wait his turn, he just HAD to make a thread when there was a perfectly good thread made before this one

who are you criticizing with this post

>This day in history, December 11th:
>perfectly good thread

Voting or union reforms

>victoria 2 crashed

HPM+Apocalypse mod

can someone post the /gsg/ /v/ musical

what are acceptable borders for a nazi germany v2 run? conquer everything?

Take Belgium and the Netherlands plus Denmark and that poland and you're getting close

all of europe should belong to germany , make italy a puppet state and feed them anatolia and jersualem and north africa

That's a nice looking Europa you've got there Mr Steppe Wolf.
