Reminder to report and ignore shitposting.

W&B

In this moment, I am euphoric. Not because of any phony god’s blessing. But because, I am enlightened by my intelligence.

Black and wasted.

What's the problem here?

>typical day in the life of a christian monk
Stupid book gives you +5 learning and -2 piety.

it looks ugly as fuck

First example is clearly better

Code isn't supposed to look pretty dumbass, it's supposed to work

t. hpm

where do you get the colourful things

only the most advanced programmers have access to the different color text.

so you ARE unhpm?

I hate HOI3's AI so God damn much.

This is why you play multiplayer

its wonderful isnt it?

based janny baby sitting us

nah, it's supposed to be readable AND work.

the only saving grace from that map is germany. your slovenia is a disgrace.

If the author can read it, it means shit if you think it doesn't look pretty.

fuck off back to your discord

Would have more Slovenes than italians if i had not taken Lombardia in the last GW

more like BASED

>if the author can read it
Yeah uh about that
Generally speaking it's simply poor form to write shit without good spacing because it makes it harder for anyone to look through it, while not actually obfuscating the code.

>waaah the author of the code didn't write the way I wanted and I think it looks ugly
Just man up

>it's supposed to be readable
Supposed is the keyword

>company fires me because they need to fire people
>they try to get me back because I'm the only one who understands my coding
>I already have a better paying job so no
>they had to redo it from scratch

I'm not the original guy you dumbass, but code style is universal. There's a reason people say Japanese code looks like shit.

>getting fired in the first place
>not making yourself irreplaceable
git gud son

>I'm not the original guy you dumbass, but code style is universal
Who cares, man up and stop whining that hpm is giving you the D from beyond the grave

>implying I care about HPM's mod
Why are you defending objectively poor coding practice?

I'm not, I'm just saying you are a whiny baby for thinking anyone here gives a fuck about what you consider pretty code or coding practice

Or maybe you're just ignorant? Again I didn't bring up HPM's code, I don't fucking care about HPM or his mod.

>I don't fucking care about HPM or his mod.
You sure like to whiny about it and get pretty butthurt that we don't care for your whining for someone who doesn't care about this

Which DLCs are necessary for CK II ?

Pirate all of them.

everything but conclave

There's nothing wrong with the Conclave though

Rate the after effects of manure explosion.

Karlings were completely unified

All/none.

None of them are really good by themselves, but they add up to alright results. Just pirate them, a lot of those features should have been in vanilla game.

it`s shit

How can I force other country to join a war by event in vic2?

Now this is kinda harsh.

make them declare war against a fake country and call allies in, just look at the great war events in the files

you deserve it for being a heretical piece of shit.

fucking ridiculous, thank you very much user

So why is HPM a giant bloated piece of shit that runs like trash?

Planning my first ever D-Day in Darkest Hour.

Any tips on what do do? I want to keep the game fun so don't want to do any cheesing.

Playing as UK btw.

Wait... Are you talking about him or his mod?

Would you play 769 start date if it had SWMH compatibility?

I honestly don't know how reddit continually gets stupider, it seems no matter what happens they manage to out retard themselves in some way.

>nickname
Neat

He's probably just greek, that cant be helped.

It wasn't funny the first time, mr redditor. Now fuck off back there.

here's a thought, why not go back to plebbit and stay there?

You may pick one of these to become a reality
Which do you choose

Croatia

>Manchu provinces now start with Feudalism again.
Too late Paraduck
Also why is Manchu a horde in the first place?

I thought they weren't nomads, also how do I keep horde unity up?

Israel, of course

POLAND

>Haven't touched EU4 in a year after getting sick of bad changes
>Check in this morning
>Parafucks making even MORE muh chinee stronk content
God how I hate this studio.

>trying to keep horde unity up at 700+ development
this shit's ridiculous

So far every time I use this event, all allies get called in. How can I make sure that Russia will call only Prussia, and that Ottoman Empire will stay out?

Is breaking all alliances with countries I don't want to call an only option?

Is the call 100% sure to be accepted? I think once it wasn't.

Got the after the end mod, chose where I live. Turns out we are the only pirates on the mainland (or it seems so). My treasury is a ton, and I've taken over most of florida, got one tribituary. My main issue now is a lack of good commanders and people in my realm and chancellors, plus gavelkind will strike soon and assblast my realm. Such is life.

>its 1700 and Ming is 2 techs ahead of GB in everything
>with a 200% tech penalty

>Is breaking all alliances with countries I don't want to call an only option?
i think so
what you could try doing is triggering an event to all russian allies (that aren't prussia) to set a country flag that, after russia has already called prussia(or whatever allies they kept), re-creates the alliance with russia

>Is the call 100% sure to be accepted? I think once it wasn't.
i'm pretty sure it's like any other call to arms and the AI may or may not deny it

How is 1.21.1?

Fucking hell, I give +200 relations and military alliance and some still refuse. Fuck you Paradox, fuck you Johan I hate you and thank you user.

In the past you couldn't leave Europe or they'd fuck shit up.

Now you basically have to spawn as a Manchu just to stop Ming from making Portugal a tributary

How the fug do I form Arabia in HPM?

no problem, and i feel your pain
an idea i just had, maybe you could try setting the enemy's country capital(or any province) as a core (temporarily) so the ai may want to join the war to 'reclaim their land'?no idea if that could work

>>Manchu provinces now start with Feudalism again.
again? didn't they have feudalism at the start of RoM?

>also how do I keep horde unity up?
War
Razing early-mid
Pillaging provinces can be enough for late game as long as you war enough.
Keep troops in provinces until you've completely pillaged it.
The horde unity from development has a cap iirc.
Played in a coop game with three different hordes we ended all with 3000-5000 development.

You can strengthen government during some rough times.
Colonized provinces don't give overextension so those you can keep around without coring them and then razing them when you need horde unity.

I miss Mingsplosion
I want to see all those chinese minors fighting for the mandate

I'm Mongolia and my only borders are with Ming
can't raze
losing like 7 horde unity a year
the second I break tributary ming invades me and kills me since its 3 techs ahead, has a gorillion mercenaries and blobbed into India and Persia

>again
1.21 removed feudalism from their provinces.

>you know ming was a little hard to play so we should nerf its only threat

Croatian fascists have awoken.

Daily begging for someone to upload his HIP so I can manually install.

>you will never be a self concious redditor desperately lashing out at criticism of his site

>I'm Mongolia and my only borders are with Ming
How?
Post maps.


>1.21 removed feudalism from their provinces.
Yes but when did they not have Feudalism?

why tho?
and with what modules?

SHOULD they start with feudalism?

Switch to confucianism early in game with tengri
Improve relations with Ming
Get them to guarantee independance
War oirat
You are now independant. Go fuck up the other Manchu tribes

I would have to restart my own game. Ming too crazy.

Manchu weren't nomads.

>fascists dont support any reforms when not in power
>despite MOSLEY advocating socialism and nationalism his entire life despite not being in power (outside of being an MP for other parties for a while)

For some reason I can't get the installer to work. Also as many as you can so I can pick and choose.

It's weird because I have a 100% legit version, only pirated stuff is the DLC's.

>Switch to confucianism early in game with tengri
first mistake
>War oirat
And you didn't secure a way to the west?

What time is it in Turkey?

Someone call based Erdogan.

Ming snaked to Chagatai and anexed the fuckers whole. Fuckers also anexed Tibet, most of SE asia and Bengal.

Got him and my boy Putin in a group chat right now. You want to talk with'm?

>as many as you can so I can pick and choose
you can only actually choose when using the installer
instead of having a bunch of submods you can turn on as you please, it's all installed in the same mod/folder
anyway, i'll upload a clean version with everything installed to MEGA, just wait a minute

who is fun to play as a commie or fascist in v2
