Do you have the right patch and installed the shit from the OP? What's the vanilla checksum?

Springtime of nations?

When are the new CK2 DDs coming out again?

Probably next week the year just started

>7 seconds

Jesus Christ, man.

I'm using the 3.04 beta patch and downloaded HPM from the pastebin linked in the OP, on a clean HPM install. Vanilla checksum was WNVU after validating my V2 files

Did the AAR man even do his HoI3 China AAR?

Start the game twice with the mod, first time you start the game it gives you a wrong checksum
The patch is out of the beta too but the checksum is right so that isn't it

nvm fixed ;)););)
got the checksum after validating

Your installation was fucked up

huey

ahueyhueyhuey

'no'

Someone host EU4 MP

>EU4

Anyone have a download for NWO 1.07? Apparently it's the "good" NWO with unfucked borders.

Pretty sure someone posted a link for it before, did you check the Veeky Forums archive?

>1889

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japanese_invasion_of_Manchuria

>established a puppet state of Manchukuo

This user's just taking it a step further.

>it's canon
>they never owned it directly
>but it's totally canon

>they invaded Manchuria

What, would it have made a difference to your fetish wank-off if they had incorporated it directly? The point is that they went in, took it, and won.

They didn't took it, they established a puppet state. That's the only reason it was tolerated actually

How close was Japan to the infamy limit?

So I have to ask, why did Paradox make Darkest Hour? They already had a WW2 game, why did they need to make another one? Not complaining about it, since Kaiserreich is pretty much worth it, but I'm just curious.

Paradox didn't do it.

You're right, it seems.

Let me rephrase the question to avoid the technicalities. Why was Darkest Hour produced when they already had a WW2 game?

>eu4 theocray
>you can select a heir
>your options are: ?/?/?, ?/?/?, ?/?/? and finally ?/?/?.

It was made after so no competition and it's basically free money

There is no such thing as a perfect Europ-

nice blob

Only dlc i'm missing are RoM and Mare Nostrum, they worth getting at full price?

No

I'll never ever give them money for Mare Nostrum, no matter what.

He probably has set up a macro or something

>Gauls
>being celtic
>Germanic people
>being celtic

Stopped playing just before it came out, how bad was it?
RoM is a good improvement though?

I've got a rainbow Africa here lads.

...

W&B

I wanted to puppet them but Manchuria did not appear under the release puppets list so I had to take it myself. Then I wanted to release them but they would get Outer Manchuria too which I wanted to keep.

What should I do if i accidentally get nominated to be byzemp? I just wanted to be the humble kind of croatia (female) (greek) and don't want to bother with this other clusterfuck. Everyone's in a faction to overthrow me anyway.

so what's to do?

Get the Byzantards to switch their succession laws.

>no romania

lad

>I'm Blind: The Post

Become emperor and convert to muslim

So considering even the music by not-Paradox is better than Paradox, which non-Andreas theme is most comfy to you lads?

I like V2's Oh I'm A Good Rebel
youtube.com/watch?v=quP_YS4fan0

It's a really beautiful rendition, the Eastern flair to it definitely makes it beautiful.

In MP, I usually do my own playlist of Vietnam War songs.

Not him but I like counters only if they aren't space program tier.

Well fuck you too

Thanks
You too

I just looked it up and apparently hotjoing has been bugged since the release of EUIV. Fuck, sorry for my ignorance.

What are some countries in EU4 that have a lot of events, but are also difficult

I love lots of events but I don't want to be France: the monster blue blob; I want to be the underdog

g.i. go away

nice eu3 run dude

Playing DH Kaiserreich with the mongol empire, when is the next war event/decision supposed to fire, and against whom?

I'll put more effort into the shitpost next time. It's pretty late here.

what's with all the screenshots from people playing the shogun? is it somehow better than the imperials? t. stupid newfag

Earlier conquests and westernization, I think.

based HRE

The Japanese will probably invade you.

When that happens put every unit in a stack and head for Mukden (that VP in the centre of Manchuria), when you take it you autowin the war. (Impossible to win otherwise)


If that doesn't happen I think you might have run out of events. There used to be ones for central asia but I'm not sure now.

Or Qing will attack you/try to negotiate with you, but they usually don't in my experience.

When are we continuing MP? I have Sepoys to fight.

t. CIA hope no one fucked over UK too hard

In 7 hours.

>you might have run out of events
That would suck.

Anyway, thanks, gonna wait for the nips for now

Did you guys play any longer last night? Is UK kill?

Like half a year or something. UK is fine #1 again so the AI is doing something right.

how do i change a country's goverment system to nomadic?

>how do i change a country's goverment system to nomadic?

set_government nomadic_government

I considered keeping or letting go of India completely but I think I'll reconquer the lost fags because otherwise Austria or someone might instead. From what I've tested no India doesn't hinder the UK all that much, you lose the manpower from that region but it isn't good for anything other than invading Russia.

thank you. but that doesn't work.
nomadic goverment system is the best.

Austria taking India? Who would plan and then do such a thing?

t.sim

>thank you. but that doesn't work.
it literally does

>tfw reason I lost India was because I sent all my regiments into Russia where some died and others i couldn't get back in time

Was a fun war though, I have to admit. Not letting Prussia pro become gigantic early results in more fun MP games, even if I was on his side, mostly as revenge to France for it siding with Spain in it's memery over Egypt.

fucking trilby seriously

>let him have all of Portugal
>he wants all of Egypt as well
