/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.

How fares your empire, /gsg/?

Thread question: Tell us of your episodes of rapid fire diplomatic horsetrading /gsg/ and how'd it work out for you?

Choke points and spreading your lines out is how it's done. It's supposed to be a LINE of battle that advances into enemy territory rather than the chaotic, messy skirmishes the AI naturally produces. Give them a wall of targets, all besieging, and force them to attack you or lose 3-5 provinces. Then if they take the bait have the whole wall collapse onto them.

>decide to refuse privilege request to the estate that has 11 fucking privileges already?
>-25 leg, -15 prestige, -2 stab

bravo gigau

help /gsg/ what should my discord avatar be

Posted in last thread, but didn't get much response.

Does this happen often? Zun is wrecking shit.

Never saw something so beautiful

Talleyrand

>estate is super strong
>you dont give them what they want
>their tantrum hurts
What, are you supposed to get that when they are weak? They set it up s that if they get too strong the only way to cut them back is through a war Ive never had because I always tell them to fuck themselves early and never get to that point.

who

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_Maurice_de_Talleyrand-Périgord

Pretty much the reason the map looks like how it looks

shut up virgin

Is this vanilla

If so shit like that happens all the time now since the devs fucked everything up with monks and memes

lol Scheer won the CPC nomination

time to vote Bloc Québécois

CK2+, and a couple other small mods.

Rome borders or bust.

The only time I've seen Zunism spread that hard was when I was playing Afghanistan myself.

I must unite all the indigenous peoples under one flag.

About to start another Inca run after almost getting Sun God this time around.

Anyone have tips on how to reform the Inca religion faster? I only failed this time around because I couldn't reform the faith fast enough and missed out on colonising the outer South American islands (Galapagos, St. Helena and the Falklands) quickly enough (because apparently Incans can't boat without touching Europeans first).

Also, pic

what is the point of unholy impregnation in CK2 if you can't make the demonspawn your dynasty?

Europe in 1550 lookin good

It just straight up doesn't work at all for me

Like the option isn't even there

ah sweet relief me m8s

>wanting ANY supernatural shit
I bet you playwith Aztecs as well.

Please tell me thats not english italy

nope, it's Tuscany. England doesn't have a reason to meddle in Italy

We do have an official discord group (Reedcord). If anyone posts in the thread about any official steam or discord groups, promising MP or not, be sure it's a funposter group known for epic memes and franzposting in the thread. They are known for posting hilarious wilhelm speeches.

Encourage and partake on it.

That name doesn't fit that image at all.

Wheres the trash rivers of Argentina?

You have to be female and right-click your portrait. The problem is female rulers don't have the right to legitimize their bastards.

pesky foreign meddling

Alex Grandi e uma delícia local

Someone should play as China and TRY to lose people.
Mobilize and then just have them all die of attrition in the Tibetan mountains.

I went there once, pretty cool state, way better than the shithole one i live in.

I was both of these things, and the option still wasn't there

Wasn't pregnant already either
