How fares your empire, /gsg/?

Eternal reminder that La Plata is the best city in South America

How's this possible?

WHITE AND BASED

how can i change history and win the boshin war as the tokugawa? hpm btw

He raised the levies before everyone started to hate him for some reason?

ɐʇɐןd ɐן

why are you gringos so obsessed with it?

You can westernize as Shogunate and unite everything before Boshin war.

yo anyone wanna hit up a eu4 game?

EU4 ran fine yesterday, but today when I try to launch it, it gets stuck in "creating checksum"
Any idea what might cause this?
I have a cracked version

>1942 – Holocaust: The SS executes 588 Jewish residents of the Podolian town of Zinkiv (Ukraine). The Zoludek Ghetto (in Belarus) is destroyed and all its inhabitants executed or deported.

Never forget the 6 million, goyim

so the only thing i have to do is encourage intellectuals and that's it?

Shogunate isnt a puppet, you can invade uncivs too.
With some smart playing you can take out China before Russians colonize Sakhalin.

use the mod "Fast Universalis" i use the one with units on.

>With some smart playing
that's it, im done for
conquered a big part of malaysia and tried to conquer vietnam and korea, but failed

delete everything in your user/documents/eu4 folder (other than the saves). this should do the trick.

Problem with China is sadly that you cannot connect your land properly because they got a capital state in the middle.
Totally ruins the aesthetics unless you cheat.

oh yes the 6 trillion thank you for reminding me R&I

>England and Portugal formally ratify their alliance with the signing of the Treaty of Windsor
Greatest ally.

M-manuel?

i dont believe the holocaust deniers
any proofs or sources that i can read about the denial of the holocaust?

Yes, John.

hdot.org/debunking-denial/

Or basically any WWII book by a reputable historian

should I move to la plata?

woah woah hold up there cuck
let me tell you something about this

Of course

sou Brasileiro :^)

hmm, didn't work, still stuck

Go on.

Oh fugg did not expect

What is it

the whole eu4 culture shift thing is annoying. i always end up forming a country with better ideas. completely destroys variety.

white men

Last Kingdom has inspired me into a CK2 run that is going to go all the way to the end of Stellaris.

Who should I play as? Northumbrians, Wessex or Skjoldung Danes?

lusosphere > anglosphere 2bqhwy

youtube.com/watch?v=Tu5-h4Ye0J0

Danes desu. Go full on Anglo-Norse and turn the British Isles into just another part of Scandinavia.

>all the way to the end of Stellaris.

Alright then. Not played CK2 for about a year but let's do this shit.

I'm going to get Immortal trait on some Danish fuckknuckle and RP him through EU4, Vicky and Stellaris how does that trigger you

I never understood how people pull if off.
You literally blob to no end in a single game and its over.

>N-no (You) for you!

If I blob in CK2 the land gets dished out and the ruler gets given independence. I don't play it as a blobbing game. I play it as a breeding game.

you are a sad little fuck.

Cmon laddos. Let's be friends :3
Have some tasty (you)s to jump-start the bestest friendship on /gsg/!

A post has to be at least 1.5/10 before it gets a juicy (You). Oldfags know this. Sumer doesn't.

>cheating

Why the fuck do people blob? I don't mean taking India as Britain or Algeria as France, I mean why do they fucking just blob all over the map like this? What possible enjoyment do they get?

>vicky 2 late game

I'll never understand redditors.
>xDxD i made an ebin blob!"!!!!!111
>better exit to desktop now

people who don't have autism are like this

it's the same reason why they can put up with the play-doh map

liqqy 2 late game combat is boring

Christendom continues to fracture as the king of Scotland turns to Catharism.
Meanwhile in the Holy Land, the first crusade crumbles as no significant state has contributed any number of soldiers. Shockingly, the only ruler of kingly status to have fought is the Waldensian monk-king of Serbia
Perhaps most amazing, the Holy Roman Emperor Heinrich IV had converted to Judaism.

wtf? All Paradox combat save DH and HoI3 is fucking worthless. In fact, V2's war system only gets interesting late-game when you have enough regiments to make frontlines.

t. franz conrad von hötzendorf

How do you play these games?

>mfw you probably just stay in your starting borders for 400 years like the God of All Autists

>doomstack penis measuring
>interesting

Yes, that's literally all Paradox combat.

How does one add something similiar to development in EU3? There's no mana, so what cost/resource would be appropriate for continous development of provinces?

Nope. I go to the maximum possible extent my country could reach, with all their historical colonies and/or aesthetic additional colonies if I feel they're justified and once I've reached that extent I solely war for partitionments, fund the side I want to win in wars, and if I'm playing EU4 fund rebels in foreign governments too.

...

Have you ever played DH in the WWI scenario? Vic2 should switch to a similar combat style upon reaching a certain age

Is there a way in EUIV to be involved in the wars of my colonial nations?
Some fucking dirty indian nation annexed my colony and I could do nothing about it. And if I want to retake it it's -2 stab hit.

The power of money, and of money alone!

>EU3 lags on my computer even tho I can run bloat4 in it with no problems

Well, that's good for you, user. I hope you keep doing that and I hope you keep having fun doing it. No memes.

Now follow my example and let other play how they like without whinging like a smacked bint

Did you miss the 'except DH and HoI3' previous post

Vicky 2 should slowely switch to this combat during the 19th century. If only paradox could make a last dlc adressing this and make great wars truely great and horrific. Or give the source code to modders but this will never happen. ;_;
