>the place shipping food over to Europe has a famine
>continue shipping food over to Europe so they dont have a famine
>have your people starve instead
How does this even work. Nowhere in Europe is having a famine due to lack of food being shipped over. Im assuming that if you are having a famine you would solve it by feeding your people instead of selling it to the ghost people across the sea.

need one or two more beautiful lads here

How do you know the rest of Europe isn't sourcing locally?

it's completely plausible

the nobility is selling the food to europeans and letting their people die

Is military access redpilled?

Soon, lad.

The are, but some cities should rely on the trade if the trade is even a thing and I actually got a boost to my city growth this time, 3.5k instead of the normal 1-1.5k. Im Milan so I rely on other for food, and Egypt should be my sourcer. Paris and London eat the Northern France bread bowl, being the largest city in Europe and all that. Southern France is shit caues I looted it. Casstile just had a large series of wars and Aragon is still recovering too so their provinces are mostly shit. Germany is mainly self sufficient with 70-80% food eaten. That leaves the Turkish lands as the only option.
Yea they are at -2 stability so they must have told the people to go fuck themselves and lost both points.

just looking at semitic people leaves me unease

Adding more food markets sounds bloat/10. I think the warehouse level 2 is what enables food imports to matter more.

They're not a puppet because they've been a GP, but they've also been a very loyal ally, so I guess they get saved.

>socialist solidarity in bringing down rebellious bourgeois traitors in Finland

Based.

randy boy...

Spoke too soon. Just needed some time. Only provinces they hit were the mountain provinces I dont care about so thats a plus.

natives are supposed to disappear after i use "attack natives" command and win the battle, right?

what the fuck

I don't play games tho, I only like to complain about them...

>that ottoman empire
I like those borders, should be modern turkey. that whole thing with a city-state international zone in constantinople should have happened too

what mod(s)?

the king is probably some pathetic shithead who thinks you'll give him albania proper if he's nice

Just HPM.

So when do you think that it will level out? Im guessing around 65ish. Might invest more to get into the 67% range for some insurance.

I just realized that in CK2 certain rarity 5 artifacts like the pagan ones get randomly distributed when you start up a game

why do I always forget the pics....

What the fuck is going on at Paradox?

>getting rid of claims in CK2
>everyone hates it
>lol joke not really

Have they all been replaced by retarded interns or something?

Doesn't have it apparently

They announced they were introducing a no-claim CB and changing how claims were fabricated.

The fuck happened? Does that shit carry over lives or did some Satanic curse me or was it just a bug

God punished you. :^)

I was wondering...
>conquer denmark as germany
>heavily industrialize (but keep the denmark industries emptry)
>shut down all factories except the ones in denmark

Will my workers start migrating there en masse? If so that would be a great way to colonize areas with no accepted pops.

Yes or is it too imperialist?

Honestly that was a shit idea. The game already gets some major bordergore, that would just make it a clusterfuck of wars.

Fabricating is fine.

All the workers of the world must be liberated, that is the only way to ensure no burgeois backlash.

So time for Finnish SSR?

Yes, comrade. Also, why don't you take that reclaim poland decision?

I never seem able to get the right checksum, currently just getting checksums that end with LV (ie YZLV, AALV, etc)
have the latest HPM and believe latest version of vicky...

>presidential dictatorship
Do they have any special features on HPM? In vanilla they were practically just like a kingdom. Oh and I recall passing an election reform but never getting any elections, probably because it was a dictatorship but still...

I have no idea what is going on in any M&T images. Why is there SO much on screen

>believe
Reinstall Victoria 2 3.04. Before that delete your v2 documents folder.

Hey guys I think I've been aggressively expanding a bit

t.aungu

Unfortunately everything is on the trade screen so the trade boxes get in the way if you want a large picture. The wheat is famine, red being the worst. The metal bars show mines there. The white blue and purple boxed ones are trade goods. then the trade centers are marked with shekels. Art palets are for centers of art. pilgrims are pilgrimage sights. anchors are good harbors unless its red then its bad harbors. That white house thing means the AI built a building there.I think thats about it.

At the same time, Im glad they're finally making it so kingdom can do Duchy de-jure CBs and kingdom-level fabrications
Honestly, with the penalties for it, maybe needing to buff those as well, I dont think the no-claim CB will be that bad.
And as well the removal of the Fabricate CB was just a suggested idea, they werent even sure if they were going to do it or not. Honestly speaking I have moderately-high hopes for this. I mean so long as its just more CB's and they dont ruin any core mechanics

So this... is the power... of the Great Purge. Thank you based Comrade Stalin.

Kinda want to go for post-WW2 USSR borders in that area. I'm just not sure whether to give all German territory to Poland and leave Germany with modern day borders, or establish some kind of Prussian/NGF People's Republic from parts of both Silesia and Germany. Probably Pomeralia + GDR borders.

Hey I started a historical discord so we can play GS games and talk about history.

Kill ALL of them.

I wonder. Would a reactionary pop be more tolerant to a conservative government than a liberal one? Would a jingoist guy be happier with a pro-military party than a pacifist one?

Fuck off back to Steaparacord

>3.4% intellectuals
You know what you must do

Don't bully pls

Intellectuals reduce consciousness, they're based.

Fuck you

How do I genocide in HPM? I need Albo blood to flow through the streets.

why do people still use this honeypot

Silesians have gone uppity and decided to rebel against our Czechoslovakobavarian comrades with the aid of the treacherous Hungarians. Here's my plan on partitioning it. Germans can have Pomeralia in exchange for the Polish majority areas. When they inevitably go fascist, I'll dismantle them and establish a GDR.

>The honeypot meme

Conspiritards like you deserve to be in the dark bunker you built yourselves in

t. good goy that is completely docile to the NWO

it's not conspiratorial if you have plenty of previous evidence of steamcordplaza raids and honeypots to attract more retards to their "movement"

Pol Pot pls

Democratic Kampuchea was white and based.

Egypt and Yugoslavia cleaned up, now time to crawl up through Palestine.

Any helpful negroes in here or memers that are sometimes helpful?

Is Castile a fun game in EU4 for a beginner?

What visual overhaul mods do you recommend? The default map looks like playdo and crayons.

Any other little mods that are essential? Not game mechanic overhauls, I'll get into them once I've played through some vanilla.

delete the game if pirate or refund

Liquor and bureaucrats, my friends

When did you realise Victoria 2 was a bad game that is barely salvageable by mods like HPM?

2012

Peace in our time.

Or should have I given Germany Silesia in exchange for full Polish East Prussia?
