>i've actually never seen one this bad before
Wew lad.

aren't the rich a minority though

wtf i hate everone now

Was going to do a real hands-off USA game to see some of the economic changes HPM did, mainly the tariffs things and the vassals paying tribute as I plan on puppeting everything I don't take
That being said, what should i shot for border's wise? Hawaii and Alaska obviously, but how hard should I expand past the 50 states? I'll make the canal, but should I take just the one province, or take all Panama? Should I take all of Cuba, using the Gitmo bay core to core the whole island?

tfw finally hit 1111 hours in Vicky

finished the other maps desu. druze is now present

Is there any conceivable to expand aesthetically as Chile? Something of thought experiment.

step up nigger

>liberals about to win again
send help

>druze in
>no chaldean

show homeland

Yes, Cuba is naturally an American territory. Then take the Virgin and Cayman islands from the UK for aesthetic reasons. I would also recommend full Oregon territory including BC, cutting Canada off from the Pacific and connecting Alaska to the continental US.
Unless you're taking all of Mexico and Central America, I wouldn't recommend taking all of Panama.

63.16m people live here and it's a tax haven.

should croatia be ruled by hungarians or they should be independent?

what, if anything, should I release

They should be a puppet of the Slovenians

Not really besides modern borders.

>4
I'm shit with industry.

Hungarian rulership of Croatia is a pure meme

then croatia must be independent?

Absolutely nothing

Croats are rightful rulers of Pannonia.

Daily reminder that Croatia should start in EU4 under Hungarian PU and not as completely annex.

Croatian sabor had to confirm Hungarian king as ruler of Croatia in 1102 and had to confirm Habsburg as the ruler of Croatia in 1527 before either of them could rule Croatia.

Yes, by refusing the treaty with Argentina over Patagonia.

but I'm talking about V2

Why don't you expand?

Rate my Byzantium lads

FUCK liberals
Why would I?

Is spamming elections only useful once socialism gets invented?

t. genny boy
I'm still using the last good version, 0.3.7.1

>cheating

New england plus new york plus the antilles and brit carib as colonies?

I don't know why I feel compelled to do this.
It should be more interesting this time around, as not only will I be able to assimilate the native american populations due to the new Native Assimilation act, but also the new trade policy is something real nice, up next.
To start, here's the population of all civilized provinces in the New World (Minus Hawaii which is technically on the American continent but I want to sphere annex them via decision)

Please, stop with this "cheating" joke, it really stresses me out.

>Russia breaks our alliance
>proceeds to ally with France
>only for the Crimean War to immediately follow
>here I am offering to ally them while they are in the war and they still won't say yes

I'm going to be platinum mad if they resume their alliance with France once it is done.

Now look at this fucking trade policy the States can take at the start. Asides from the tech bonus, that fucking tax and admin boost tho

Fuckers led my precious healthcare industry to bankruptcy

What is this 0.3.7.1 meme? The last version before he changed genocide was 0.3.8.2. The last version he made before coming back was 0.3.6. What exactly did 0.3.8 do wrong to warrant people not using it?

Who is more based between Colombia and Venezuela? Colombia has more pops but Venezuela has more oil RGOs.

Gran Colombia

What culture should own this land? Design a country based here and tell me about its lore.

I'm going to play CWE so Gran Colombia is irrelevant.

Even if it existed it still wouldn't be relevant. Like Peru. Just a big blob of shit no one cares about.

I meant "irrelevant" to my question, retard.

I meant it wouldn't ever be relevant in game or not, retard.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Italy

>gee, harboria, why does your mom let you have TWO harbors?

Venezuela then, Colombia is fucked in CWE with absolutely no mineral resources and not a single White Spanish pop outside Medellin, Bogota and Cali

What's wrong with 3.9?

Nobody was wondering that or thinking otherwise, retard.

Carthagenians are white and based.

I have a narcissistic personality disorder and believe my thoughts always to be pertinent to every discussion, retard.

Irrelevant. Fuck off, retard.

Okay, Venezuela it is.
Fair enough, retard.

Dozens of irrelevant nigger cultures who lag the game, genocide now completely useless and what's more costs huge amounts of infamy, liquor renamed beverages just to spite memers, can't annex Persia or Korea, HPM has started just ruining his own mod rather than adding to it.

Retards are white and based.

>genocide now completely useless
Please explain this, the changelog is confusing.

Thanks lad
Anything can be relevant in CWE though

Glad we got that sorted, retard.

What should i play and post.

See The absolute MOST it can kill is 40%, and that's only if you gas by religion in a colony. If you gas in both states and colonies by culture you only kill 10%, if you're lucky.

Compare that to the 75% of Armenians Turkey removed in less than 5 years. In the game they could only do 5% of Armenians because it would be by culture in both Anatolia proper and the Armenians in Homs.

HPMIDF, migrants, and /leftypol/ will defend this though.

Change capital from DC to based Pensacola, i.e. the 'New Carthage'

hungary

Country : Principality of Benisia
Capital(Gold): Meata
Culture: Cavernosan

In 1069, the Normans invaded the kingdom of Sicily, attacking across the Ureta mountains in the south and laying siege to the coastal fortress of Meata. During the time, the castle was dealing with a particularly nasty epidemic of UTIs, leading the garrison to surrender the castle within a week. The Norman general tasked with the conquest of the penisula, "Pétit" Mortimer du Coq, decided to take up reidence in the castle, and captured the city of Deferens to the south-west the following year. In 1073, Mort moved north to invest the barony of Prostata, capturing and sacking the castle after a 30-second siege, which brought great shame to the Baron Flacide, forcing him to flee the country and leaving Mort in complete charge over the land. In 1084, the Kingdom of Sicily and the Duchy of Sicily had split, and Mort, now an old man, used the situation to declare an independent principality with the support of Venetian merchants. After his death in 19095, his son, Prince Albert I took over, and quickly made his way into the history books by building the Via Semina between Meata and Rome, and the construction of the fortress of Glans, which remains the largest fort in the Italian Peninsula.

How the fuck do I play Teutonic Order in EU4?

Either I get raped in 5 years because no one wants to ally me or I stay isolated and do nothing because PLC will declare on me if I declare a war of my own

the so called 'armenian genocide' never happened though

how did that japan game go?

up the percentage in the files then you big fucking baby

>cheating

Damn. When you think about about how many Armenians there were at the time and how many they killed its mind-boggling. like 50-60% of all Armenians and that's only Armenians. All the Greeks and Assyrians too. All of that cultural history just gone within 2 years

>have to change a mod myself because alex is too much of a nigger to do it
Yeah. This is exactly what you get when you bring up Grandi has broken genocide. It's either. "5% is actually a lot more realistic!" Or "just change it yourself!". Is it too much to ask that he simply not break a mechanic to the point of worthlessness?

I am still going with it, just kind of bored of it desu. The later years get a bit bloated in black ice, so the game speed slows down quite a bit.

Almost sure it only needed time for me to leave the US sphere. Maybe this will work better though.

Actually it's still both of those things, you just started taking your meds.

based venezuela fighting the congolombian menace while I siege and do nothing

>blobbing as New England
stop fucking doing as my beautiful homeland you cretins

Playing Kaiserreich as the Union of Britain, already won both big wars and the Internationale is the last major alliance standing so I've just been spreading the revolution all over the world. I'm expanding my army to gear up to attack Austria and the Arab Axis so while I wait for those units to get built I sent my marines and paratroopers with a couple of battleships and planes to the Caribbean to mop up the last little banana republics in North America and all was going well until I got to Haiti, the last non-syndicalist country left in North America. I sent all my units to attack this one province and bomb the shit out of it since they had no navy or airforce to watch out for, rightly since it was a two province minor the war should have been over in like a day.

Nope, they must have conscripted their entire population because they had 20 units of infantry waiting for me. The battle went on for like a month and a half before they won and wiped out my paratroopers and like half of my marines. Fucks sake.

Any memorable times you lost to total shitholes as a major world power, /gsg/?

Reposting, please respond

So close.

I literally get a boner each time I fire up CK2. The only thing I can do with CK2 is masturbate to all sorts of scenarios. And Dark World, much as it tries, is not fully fleshed out enough to realize all my fetishized scenarios.

What should I do with Nicaragua and costa rica?
Incorporate them into the FRCA, leave them balkanized or give CR to panama and Nicaragua to FRCA?

Because they don't wanna offend K*reans.
