Should I do my first HoI3 playthrough vanilla?

How is this for a partition of the Levant?

Also, how do you release the dynamic tags?

Reminder

Same answer as with every other game ever, with exception to maybe Arma 2, yes.

bretty gud

>Not releasing Palestine as a secular Arabic republic

'tis shit-tier laddddddo.

Reminder.

Initial operations are highly successful, with minimal losses for the Guomin Geming Jun and major defeats for Japanese forces. Although Jiang does nothing to quell the sense among the men that victory is inevitable, he knows better than to draw any great conclusions based off of this: the soldiers encountered so far by the Second Juntuan are mere scouts, a few brigades of soldiers prodding at the extreme ends of the lands which fell under their control when Taiyuan fell.

Although the early victories earn rousing cheers and keep the spirits of the soldiers high, he knows that the true test is to come. Only more Japanese will be encountered as they march forward.

Stop posting this.

Whats a good cultural union to play in EU4? I tried playing Irish but got bored when no one would war with me.

You just jealous?

Well user, the first trick is to be an incurable autist.

I don't know, I enjoy it quite a lot. But I also actually have fun with the OOB; even if I find it a little tedious, I usually do really like doing it. That's where most people trip up.

As for everything else, you just need to know how the different command levels work, how supply is likely to fuck you, and other things like that (to be successful, anyway). Oh, and having garrisons to put down revolts, of course.

So long as you play smart and play aware it's actually really fun, until it gets too simple. The one major downside of HoI3 is that there really is a "proper" way to play, so long as you have the IC to pull it off, and it gets quite boring because of that. All the best divisional types for pretty much any situation are all mostly identical.

I unironically think it would be better off to have everything in that region bulldozed, the people cleared out, and have the Chinese come and build a confucian qingqong metropolis in its place.

Yeah and the fact playing as any nation outside of Europe or Asia (Excluding Australia, the US and Canada obviously.) is literally impossible. It's railroaded as fuck.

How do you make a country use a different flag for a constitutional monarchy? I used the govt_flag = theocracy like HPM told me, but it still doesn't work. Does anyone know? Pic related is supposed to be absolute monarchy flag, but is the only one that shows up. (ignore the name, i fixed it in the flag files)

You need to liberate the British and French colonies and create a Carribean Federation

Meiou France is a shit show. You have to wait 100 years just to drag it all together or 50 if you want to organize the vassals.Then you have claims of all of Naples you have to force, large parts of the HRE to take... I tried it once. Once I got Naples the game was just wait for

This is the perfect Europe

Yeah, in many respects I prefer DH. I think a DH system with HoI3 combat would be a perfect game, but since we got "muh abstraction simulator" 4 that's not likely to happen in the next decade.

>6.8%

Now use the US to reclaim Cayman and the Bahamas.

I find it to be too simple, it lacks depth to satisfy my autism.

But pretty much im a naziboo and i like ww2, thats enough to like the game.

and pic related is what i want to be the constitutional monarchy flag, but doesn't show up at all. govt_flag = theocracy doesn't work (again, ignore the name, i fixed it in the gfx files)

Not an argument.

Ok, do I give parts of the CAR to the neighbors? Congo to the Congo, West Cameroon to Nigeria and Gabon to Gabon.

Or do I leave the blob? (it's all African Minor accepted anyway)

only acceptable europe

Release Congo as a puppet, keep Gabon to yourself (it has like 20k pops anyway, right?) and keep the Chad-Cameroon-CAR blob.

By the evening of December 5th, Taiyuan has been retaken by the Japanese, and forces under Yan who had defected to Mao in the region north of Taiyuan have been cut off by a Japanese armored push to the south. Isolated and with the only major city in the region captured by their enemies, their destruction is certain; even if it wished to, the Guomin Geming Jun cannot reach them in time. Yet there is hope that it will be able to retake Taiyuan, at least, and do justice to their fallen leader.

The Seleucids did nothing wrong.

>Any darky existing

I beg to differ.

Only complaining about the speed it takes to put everything under control. At little to no reward. I mean you get alot of Italy but other then that... A legitimate claim on the entire kingdom of Sicily from ck2, all of England, distant claims of Spain. Probably make Italy England and Spain into Vassals in a long game.

Is there actually a Carribean Federation nation? I don't have any unique decisions as Cuba so far. Just generic stuff.

I'm working on it, geeze.

The first major Japanese force is encountered the following evening at Hejian: a group of elite infantry, two tank divisions, and three infantry divisions, all grouped south of Tianjin. The surprising amount of armor is both worrying and frustrating for Jiang, who had hopes to capture Beijing before the Kwantung could reorient.

Nevertheless, it appears that the Imperial Japanese promise of reinforcements to the Kwantung were at least somewhat facetious; the highest-ranking officer that Jiang's subordinate General, Xu Yongchang, can identify is a Captain. It appears the Kwantung is operating largely without Imperial support, despite last year's proclamation.

Even so, two tank divisions are nothing to trifle with. Jiang orders reinforcements to Hejian, although the ultimate goals of Operation Yanqiu are maintained.

Where's the best place to get cracked DLC for genuine EU4? Does the old activator still work?

Me on the right.

How did you do this anyways, play, take a screenshot, and pause to write? Or take the screenshots and come back to them afterwards and write.

I'm using the US to take minor's land right now, if Denmark breaks their alliance with England I'm eating their islands too.

A bit torn about the Dutch East Indies there, considering it's a state of the Netherlands and not just a colonial province.

From the 6th of December to the 13th of December, under the operational command of Yang Aiyuan of the Eighth Jun, the Eighth and Ninth Armies move into position south of Tianjin and begin simultaneous assaults at Hejian. Although all forces are unfortunately attacking over rivers, they are also doing so over an incredibly broad area, and even Japanese tanks begin to have trouble holding the line against the mass assault of militiamen.
