/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.

Old Thread

based

CK3 WHEN

Absolutely based.

Fifth for Willy

...

>he deleted his shitpost here to post in the new thread
wow you got worried people might miss your good and useful post?

Not bad actually, they actually look like a St Andrew's cross mixed with a green St Patrick's cross.

not an argument my laddy

Random lad BTFO.

t-thats because it is

nigger

Lets rate the OSTs shall we

Best: HoI2/DH

Great: CK2, EU3

Good: EU4

Average: HoI4

Low: HoI3

I only rate HoI3 so low because honestly the only songs that stood out to me are Letters from Home and the Soviet Suite.

2017 CK2 mod when?

nth for Christie

I assumed so, I'm just saying I'm impressed you managed to pull something that made quite some sense symbolically from a Paradox flagmaker, which sounds like quite the limitation.

THICC

>its great people.
The Japanese were never great.

hes a big governor

La Plata

This took way more work than it was worth, but at least now I have some scripts to extract useful information from the game data files which could come in handy again in the future.

As promised yesterday, here's a list of all the countries in HPM and the cultures they accept according to their definition file in the history/countries folder. You can find some countries with amusingly large numbers of right-culture pops on the map, like Luxembourg (accepting French and North German), Corsica (French and North Italian), or UBP (Russian and North German + minors).

For new joisey

do not worry

A shitty city. Even Poles have better taste and ability in architecture, and that's not counting all their German engineered buildings (aka 90% of the good ones)

yeehaw

Shhh
La Plata is white and based

hmm
Really makes me think lads

Planned cities are shit laddo
unless they're colonial

all me

Yeah, I looked for a Celtic symbol but all I could find was a Celtic cross but it didn't have any knots on, it was just a cross and a circle which looked pretty shit on everything.

stop playing grand strategy

>Ingria was a releasable nation in vanilla

Based Louis

Based Erdogan

By the way this also proves that "Swiss culture" is an unnecessary and silly idea, because lots of small countries are already divided multiple major cultures. If Luxembourg can be French/German Switzerland can survive being French/German/Italian.

yes very based

Based Mali is a multicultural paradise

>Kurdistan

culture of mountain jew

>Accepts Turkish
Now THIS is a meme too far

Good job wasting your time with this irrelevant bullshit, HPM would be proud of your autism

Quality post lad

>Kurdistan

World domination as a shitty tiny province is impossible in Vicky 2 isnt it

...

Krakow

>I am an expect at map staring

Pretty much unless you go out your way to do some exploits

>Mali will never come back to HPM

>"What's wrong with Kurdistan? Shouldn't based Kurds have their own land?"
>actually find them in chart
oh

>Pretty much unless you play the game properly

?

>Shouldn't based Kurds have their own land?"
>shouldn't these commie quasi jews have their own state
They are literally just Iranian.

>kurds should have their own state

k lasd

>Greece should own Anatolia

See

Hello /gsg/ it's your CK2 roleplayer average fag here and with a serious question today

How do I learn to play Hearts of Iron IV? I just feel overwhelmed by the amount of shit that's floating around the screen randomly and nothing linking any information together and I don't know where to start.

>anyone but me is white

>all these subhuman t*rks chimping out
Don't worry shitskins, they are gonna be independent soon after the ISIS meme is over :^)

More accepted pops = good thing

So what's the problem?

>I think Byzantium is a legitimate state

>the Armenian Genocide

try building a wall this time

>how do i play the easiest paradox game

>look at my Germany blob

>Man I fucking love the French Rhine (NATURALE XD) border hahaha Napoleon was based right?

>>all these subhuman t*rks chimping out

>ck2
>Easiest
wew lad. looks like you havent heard of infantry of iron 4
pic related. 3 stacks with 50 infantry managed to do this

>Hasn't taken even a single extra state
>Being this low energy
Sad!

Think of this like Ireland accepting the British.

have we created the most funposting thred yet lads?

i see reading comprehension isn't your forte

They might as well literally be considered the same culture at this point, so not a very strong argument lad

>blobbing into their cores and having to destroy them every few years over and over
I'd rather industrialize first 2bh

>Blobbing
You already have a blob

hmmm really made me think . you see lad i dont have time to read shitty frog posters. the first thing i saw was ck2 and then decided to proceed with my shitpost.

in what game

>Shitposting is justified if its in response to shitposts

Then Chechens accepting Russians.

Can you take Alaska?

I didn't go anywhere beyond New Spain.
America is the blobber, they shouldn't go further than the 13 colonies.

...

>no glory in removing muslim king from Europe
wtf

>>no glory in removing muslim king from Europe

>New Spain.
>Not a blob

Liquor Uber Alles

Unironically the best fedora post ITT

Like most of the releasable nations for Russia have Russian as accepted

I still don't know 100% if I'll be doing an AAR, but if I do one, I'll post it here.

>Council having power

Lol

>Silesia has Polish as the Primary culture despite North German being the clear majority by far

>nazis in current year

If it wasn't for me /gsg/ would consist entirely of shitposters shitting each other up.

>nazi
Please remove your post, and perhaps reformulate it so that it does not contain kike propaganda.

Where is this?

"no[/spoiler}

neat
