Didn't you post this before?

Yes it is, for the updates

It was a different guy and it was an way uglier blob

Use the activator

When is the new EU4 DLC coming out?

What game?

forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/index.php?threads/earn-the-dragon-throne-in-europa-universalis-iv-mandate-of-heaven.1002488/

That doesn't help at all

I want to play vikings but I don't want to play pre 1066, what do?

There's a pagan, erik the strange, in sweden.

Hardråde was the last viking, so you need to mod the game if you want to create an alternate history. If you want raiding you need to mod, that is. If you just want to start as a norse pagan you can still do so in 1066, even create your own character if you want.

Probably CK2

Africa mod works with HPM?

Wait why he can't raid as a pagan?

It's made for HPM.

I think it comes with HPM integrated, might be wrong tho.

ckiiwiki.com/Raiding

Culture plays a role too

>variance
That depends, but I guess EU4 since it has randoms tuff

>challenge
Definitively HoI3 with minors

At least it's only 15 years now.

Well shit, thanks.

When the fuck are they announcing a new game?

Doesn't help much considering how long it takes.

Paradoxcon

Is HoI4 good yet?

Anyone?

New version of HPM when?

She's dead

No.

>she

Yes

False.

rip Alex

>ck2 starting to slow down on toaster

>load game
>immediately fires
>5 plagues in 5 months
rip

Remove india

I have that and some other performance mods but decided to keep india this game, had plague and disease on deadly to make up for that but it clearly didn't do a good enough job.

until now.
gonna turn india off next game but for now I've given plague free reign to rip and tear as much as it wants to for a while.

Diseases on deadly won't really help as much as removing india

>this thread is good but the retarded janny is probably going to delete this one instead of the other one that is filled with shitposts.

I don't think so, this thread has way more posts and posters. Janitores aren't dumb.

>Janitores aren't dumb.
are you sure about that.

>work for free
>not dumb

Well, I certainly got what I asked for. Not even 3 years in and 22 epidemics have merged to create super death.

I'd remove India, Mali, Iceland, Abyssinia and much of the steppes to the east. Along with that there are some other performance tweaks you can do, though I'm not sure how much they impact the game.

under engine in defines.lua you can set the day interval for events to be checked, default is 20, 50 for courtiers, which can be turned off entirely, but that'll fuck with unlanded courtiers on your councils since the missions won't fire. There also used to be a line about 'normal' population in here but it seems they removed it in the M&M patch

>>I died by sickness, another fucking 10 years regency
Just close your doors when there's an epidemic

Does anyone know how to make the Crusader Kings II mod: Nova Monumenta Iaponiae Historica to work on steam?

Offer to help him but make it blazingly obvious you support Trump.

Drop in the mod folder and run?

But I can't find manual download

>he reports me out of spite and my paradox account gets banned

If it's only on steam and there's no manual download, how the fuck you can't use it?

Alternative Manual Download
A very good news for some people who are hated by Steam Workshop.
Here is the alternative link of NMIH ver.0.5.5, including graphic/event screen add-ons!
{LINK REMOVED}


He added it. Just that it was removed

Is there a manual download for HIP? I've actually bought the game but this installation shit is too retarded for me.

How can you be too dumb for the installation?

Use steamworkshop downloader.

thanks

>The Emperor of China can now use 20 Meritocracy to enact Decrees that last for 10 years and give various bonuses.
Officially meme game

How do I grab my liege's duchy in HIP? I can't send my chancellor there, and the fabricate claim option doesn't appear in my list of possible plots.

Don't think you can usurp your liege as a lower ranking vassals, usurp another ducal title and then , when equal in rank, come back to your former liege's title.

So,where do i upload it?

The trash bin

>t.johan running away from it

how should i name papal controlled Greece?

>Cannot create or usurp a title of the same or higher rank as our liege's.

Shithole

Well i patched it and it works with DH 1.04c.
Might try it out later this month, that map sure looks interesting.

>Catholic nations now better recognize the Treaty of Tordesillas.
Only took 5 expansions and 10 patches. Hopefully now you won't have Brittany stealing Brazil from Portugal, and should also make more people convert making 30 years war more fun

If any of you newfags are still around this is why we hate you

How many provinces does SWMH add to England

what is SWMH?

>complains about newfags while browsing reddit on phone

Shaking Warely My Head

What happened in May 2016?

the launch of hoi4

How can you form Yugoslavia in HPM? I aldready have all of the Balkans in my sphere except Bosnia and Croatia

watch this

Somewhat more historical
Pretty racist in that it removes India so there are more white people in Europe

Started as Malacca, formed Malaya for the achievement and now I'm nearly within coring range of North Africa and Europe.

What should I do next?

about to get..

Play MAYO and talex

GYPSIE'D

I started as a one province Armenian count and carved out an Empire for my creepy autistic Christian sect.

Now what?

Remove Rum.

>landing your successors

>tfw there will never be a ww2 grand strategy with the production system of goy4, the combat system of hoi3 and the research and politics of DH

Please don't make fun of my wifes son.

I will call the next crusade for Anatolia!

Which one's that again? Slow or imbecile?
Just plot to kidnap him and kill him, user.

I didn't knew there were SJW in 17 century
Should i control Jewrusalem directly, give it to knights or something else?

Not trying to start shit, but is Stellaris not discussed here? And if not, anyone know where? For all its casualised flaws I still enjoy it.

>I didn't knew there were SJW in 17 century
What do you think Frederick the Great was?

>"If Turks came to Prussia, I would build Mosques for them."

>Ottomans Annexed all of Egypt in the Oriental crisis

What.

so that's why he hated poles so much
really makes you think

He was so great he could predict the future

What's that little blue province
