would you consider playing an indie grand strategy game /gsg/?

La Plata

White Men

Who should I play in CWE?
ISIL?
Republic of China?
Iran?

Thats not hitler you tard plus hitler was german not austrian

Islamic State of China and Iran

>hitler was german not austrian

Is that Mario?

give me a rare country in vicky 2 and something to do

Alright it has its UI faults and the map is still kind of fucked (far less than ~march though), but it's clearly the better mod currently and has far more potential than CWE, which is a huge, unplayable clusterfuck.

HOMBRE BLANCO

Wrong pic

What do Airports do

People would consider playing any game as long as it's good.

Well, I guess that scratches Iran off my list.

An airport is an aerodrome with extended facilities, mostly for commercial air transport. Airports often have facilities to store and maintain aircraft, and a control tower

That's what I would do, if it's even possible.
What country do I start as to become ISIS anyway?

I'm not playing yet, I just picked a random developing nation to see if they start without electricity like in CWE. I was wrong, they do start with electricity as well as a lot of other techs.
Honestly, you should download NWO and delete CWE, played for 7 years as the Dutch and 10 years as Iran in CWE today and it's simply not playable.

Reminder to report and ignore shitposting.

wait isnt this CWE

Has it always taken so long to westernize as Korea in V2?

I've been encouraging intellectuals in one province (capital) since the start of the game and it hasn't reachead 2% yet. It's 1874 already.

syrian civil war game when?

>tfw DeZ is finally free

When rojava stops being a US puppet state

Those people could literally just joined a mob and won all by themselves but instead they left the country

So do I just repeat the strategy of trapping the Ottomans on Chio ad infinitum or what?

Is trading the French king for Aquitaine and then white peacing with a 1.6:11 ratio redpilled?

Can someone explain to me why people have such trouble with doing naval in DH? It's so easy and intuitive, and yet people just throw their hands up at it. Hell, some people even complain about HoI4's naval even though it got babyfied to kingdom come.

Does this make you butthurt /pol/ autists mad? How does it feel to know HPM won't pander to you ignorant fucks anymore?

>not winning the first war
Are you playing on AI cheat mode or something?

Much worse is allowing Mazula to live. And yet people do it.

PeruANO confederation or gran colombia?

My plan was to exhaust their manpower supply so I can start annexing Northern France in the subsequent wars without any issues whatsoever. All I need is the 5 Channel provinces and pretty much nothing else from France.

>subsequent wars
I dont know if youve ever played as France but they start with 100k manpower over their cap, or at least I did, so the only chance youll ever have of beating them without 2 miltech +discipline advantage for a while is the first war where they dont have alot of troops at the start.

>is the first war where they dont have alot of troops at the start.
they had twice my army size in a single stack with half my army size in another stack sitting behind it, coupled with all the vassal armies around them

You have to take out their main army when you land with more troops, since theyll still be gathering theirs from around the country. Then break up the tiny stacks they have that are moving towards where their main army is fleeing. Theyll have to take loans, so then you wait for them to go bankrupt.After that youll crush them just by the siege advantage. Using transports to dodge them is a good strategy.

Based HPM btfoing Neo Nazis

>Using transports to dodge them is a good strategy.
That's actually how I got that ratio. Anyway I can't really do anything in the first war because it was Montfort's war which means that France, as their secondary ally, has twice the cost of AE for their provinces.

The good news is that I have cores there anyway so all I need is a bit of luck with France getting in a war with someone and my goal is complete. I'll wait, no problem

>taking provinces
You just have to take half their country and you become the owner of all of France with cores and everything. I spent a few dozen games to get this down pat because I wanted to be ready for colonization, but then colonization sucks so...

>You just have to take half their country and you become the owner of all of France with cores and everything.
Wait, what? You mean just occupy it?

>Start in 769 as Slavic duke
>Convert to Christianity, feudalize, start expanding slowly
>Everything going according to plan
>Suddenly county next to me get captured by random Bolghar adventurer
>lol wahtever
>Get fucked two times bcs he have have 6k no upkeep event army
>Treaty end in one year and he still have 5k

What to do? Event troops despawn only on death of ruler?

is acok for warband playable?

Sorry didnt mean to link to your post

all the got mods are pretty shit in general

>tfw it all keeps tumbling down

no mods will fix that dumbass ranged AI that allows you to circle around them until they run out of ammo

yea, then you get an event saying the war is over and youve won the crown. If you mess up theyll be a vassal and you wont get their vassals.

Does this make you butthurt /pol/ autists mad?


How does it feel to know HPM won't pander to you ignorant fucks anymore?

how do I have fun in CK2?
every campaign I start gets tiring except republics

One step at a time comrade

play republics

once you become the head honcho for the first time in a republic the game becomes trivial because you get so much gold you can just always win the elections

rp

or get friends and play with them

republics are the most boring government type in the game though
