what the fuck

ahahahahahaha
HPM/R&I BTFO yet again

AFPG I need you, my love
Also, why was the last thread removed?

They're deleting the threads because they're made by notirous ban evader, Alex Grandi.

How do I form Preußen in EU4?

Yes, what can I help you with?

Favelocide, release when?

aight boys, the 4-step program is already underway
we gunna make it, /gsg/?
we gunna be kangz?

On the NAU (mestizo primary), it looks more globalist. Though the populist version would be Greater USA for sure.

What ideas do you have for a Holy Roman Imperial Mexico?
Most of the Americas is Imperial provinces but I don't want to demand all that job from you, so let's settle for Mexico for now.

Can you make me a Pan-Arabist nationalist shite flag, please?
But it has to be all one colour, like Gaddafi's flag was.

oops, missed a spot

AYO

You mean a Mexico that has been colonized by the HRE?

HOL' UP

It's either red, green or black. White would look too French.

>mestizo primary
So it's Mexico dominated or something? I'm not quite getting it. Kinda sounds like what /pol/ says globalism will lead to.

>mestizo primary
VIVA LA RAZA GRINGOS!!!!!

Yes, Frankish culture and so, since systematic extermination is something that the Holy Roman Emperors have been doing for generations on end

Well, that's lovely. Since all the posts for the DH mini-AAR are now in the deleted thread, should I repost what I had or just continue and backlink? I don't know how many user properly use 4chanx.

SO YOU BE SAYIN

we were monarchs, among other things

I just use the archive, lad. It had your trip on so it's fine.
Perhaps as a precaution you should stop posting in Grandi threads all together, lest this happen again.

>Kinda sounds like what /pol/ says globalism will lead to.
Pretty much yeah, that's what it looks like.

that is absolutely correct my fellow of african heritage

Hey thanks for the stormtrooper icon, I'm gonna check how it looks ingame

Which start is better in CWE?

1946, you can kill communists

Since HPM is a jew has hasn't implemented a way to ship the niggers to Africa, how does the following plan sound?
Buy out Liberia's debt and hold onto the area as the USA
Have the civil war happen, crush the south, free the nigs
After the war's over, more or less copying the tail of tears decision, for a cost of $ and some militancy to liberals, ship them all to Liberia, then release Liberia as an independent nation
Boom, only Texans, Dixie. and Yanks left in America, no nigs

Should I also make a decision for all the African diaspora cultures and the caribeno for an all american Caribbean as well? Send the unaccepted ones there to nearby countries that do accept them like Cuba, Jamacia, Guyana ect?

what game do I play?

muddafukin cracka's takin' black man land, KILL BOER

Release Favelocide mod first.

I would if I was him. Not however

>grand strategy games
>play
pick one

Wew

Looking good, time to edit the unit build icon to see how it looks with that background.

>lost 7 infamy in 2 years

Anyone else finds joy in helping uncivs westernize instead of colonizing them?
I especially like helping countries like Egypt, Ethiopians, Tunis, Persia and Arabians.

Did I make this OP?
My issue isn't with the picture, my issue is with "Report and ignore it", "Reminder to report and ignore shitposting", and then "Reminder to report and ignore shitposting" again as the first post. It's ludicrous. Either you're so stupid as to not realise this repetition just causes more shitposting or the alternative, you know it does yet still eagerly spam it just so you can get your little meme in the OP.

Either way it's absolutely retarded and needs to stop. It was bad enough when it was just the first post and the OP, but now it's twice in the OP. When will it end? When the entire OP is just variations on the R&I message for 2000 characters?
Fuck you, and fuck anyone who thinks that particular element of retardation is something to aim for.

Oh, and look, your post was deleted. So it seems you are in fact R&I after all, you ban evading nigger.
Fuck you doubly for that, never come back here and stop trying to get your R&I message in the OP thrice, take a solid fucking look at waht you're doing.

I'm glad it works, user. Now I feel more confident for unusual requests such as those.

...

Soon enough, the matter of rearmament rears its head once again. With the new Wehrmacht reaching basic operational efficiency and the various armed forces headquarters planned by the central government finally operable, Germany must decide how she is now to spend her not-inconsiderable resources.

Goering is quick to suggest a further expansion of the Luftwaffe, but as an air force at all is itself a violation of Versailles (and one which, as-of-yet, the Allies have refused to comment upon), Hitler is reluctant to expend resources on antagonizing the western powers. Requests for naval expansion are likewise flatly turned down by Hitler on the grounds of unreasonable expense while the armed forces are still lacking.

Yet when the generals duly recommend an expansion of the infantry, Hitler is uncharacteristically recalcitrant. Thirty-two divisions was already a momentous break with the spirit (and letter) of Versailles, and Germany actively thumbs her nose at the west by putting 100,000 men through armed forces training every year, as well. Fearful of potential counter-action, especially following the re-occupation of the Rhineland, Hitler thus vetoes direct divisional expansion, at least at this juncture.

The Fuhrer, along with recommendations from Beck, von Blomberg, and Heinz Guderian, works to outline a plan not to expand Germany's standing divisions, but to "enhance" them with the introduction of "basic support systems." On paper the plan sounds simple, but the reality is the production of almost 5,000 tanks to support the Wehrmacht "at every angle, from every division."

In Guderian and Beck's thinking, a general dispersal of medium armor throughout the Wehrmacht will prevent enemies from ever being able to take advantage of a Schwerpunkt--a critical point--by strengthening Germany's basic divisional structure, while simultaneously allowing a basic infantry division the kind of power necessary to take advantage of the Schwerpunkt of an enemy.

>, as-of-yet,
Aww yeah, we real trite hours now boyos.

So "Report and Ignore" are what trigger you so much?Seems like a very petty thing to get so upset over.
It hardly encourages shitposting.Do you think shitposters specifically look for that message to start shitposting?No.If someone wants to shitpost, they are going to.
I just follow the norm and tradition.If the other people who make proper threads decide they want to remove it, I would also stop using it.
I'm not going to reply past this because I don't want to get my router blocked for resetting too many times again.

How are you posting when you just got banned?
Also, it's impolite to leave a conversation for the exact length of time it takes you to reset your router.
>reminder to report and ignore shitposting
>t. ban evader

i-i made the base infamy decrease .25 monthly

I hate how retarded the gameplay is for a horde in EU4. Everything the game basically trains you to avoid is completely the opposite - fuck corruption, fuck debt, fuck positive income, fuck everything. People say this shit is fun, but it isn't.

Pretty good. Thanks m8, I hope it wasn't too hard to make. Guess I finally have a reason to go back to modding. God I fucking hate UI editing.

It wasn't as hard as I feared, I'm glad to have helped.

Fuck off

In mid-1936, a crisis of government occurs in Spain which pits the reactionary, pro-Catholic, pro-monarchist elements of the government against the liberal-minded Republican front. Worryingly, the Reich's information specialist, Wilhelm Canaris, indicates that the Republicans may be being covertly supported and indoctrinated by the Soviet Union.

Just a few days after the beginning of the Civil War, Hitler sends a representative to the nationalists promising a wing of fighters, an expeditionary force, and naval support when necessary. Both France and Britain make gestures against the move, but as Germany is not becoming directly involved in the conflict (and, indeed, as they are worried about Soviet influence themselves), they allow the matter to slide.

"That such foes, weak of spirit as they are, could ever have defeated Germany is a shame that the November criminals must always bear," Hitler spat that evening at dinner. "I begin to believe they would not lift a finger were I to invade one of their own allies! Would that Mussolini were so accommodating, and we might now be dining in Wien!"

here's to hoping the russians accept my call ally

Who'll win?

oops

attrition, naturally

Also, what ideas do you have for a Holy Roman Republic? Something like early french republic, most likely

Oh, you think so?
British blockade at the Dardanelles, with additional Persian troops backing up the hills just incase the AI fails. Austria is a sacrificial lamb to slow them down before I get through Anatolia.

You because you're the player and you know how to use terrain, how to use generals, when to accept peace and all that shit.

That's probably why.

Raping female slaves, I presume. The left like to fetishize whites falling for blacks in this way.

The purest form of love.

play bradenburg and save scum :^)

the Hapsburg jew fucked me from getting all more german cores

Rape. He's LARPing as a horny teenager whose father would bring female slaves for him and his brothers to gangbang them.

Why does the OP always give that autistic warning about the steam group? What's the fucking problem? Who even cares about Steam groups? If there isn't an official steam group why not just make one? What's the issue?

how new

Almost a year has passed with little enough change in the international situation. Germany has been quiet, as has Italy following her conquest of Ethiopia, and Germany's adherence to the thirty-two divisions it mandated in its initial creation of the Wehrmacht in 1935 has somewhat pacified France and Britain, for the time being. Relations are still strained, but naught of great import has yet occurred on the international stage to warrant worry.

In Spain, the nationalists have spent the last year securing the north, capturing Madrid, and punishing the now overtly Soviet-backed Republicans. Although the going has been slow and Barcelona has been lost as a casualty of the focus elsewhere, with Madrid firmly in hand the Republicans are unlikely to be able to recapture it. Although the civil war might last as much as a year more yet, it seems a foregone conclusion that it will end in the nationalists' favor.

In this quiet time of slow rearmament and little international uproar, the only real move of note is Hitler's formalization of the previously-disgraced SA as a militia force. The move is yet another underhanded one meant to strengthen Germany's armed forces without breaching thirty-two combat divisions, but by definition, training, and equipment, the newly weaponized SA will truly be a militia force, well within the stipulations of the treaty. Although the Fuhrer envisions them as the future garrisons of the conquered east, that eventuality is yet far off for them--more likely they will be garrisoning important cities in the Reich for many years more.

It's been decades since my wife got pregnant and now she's 41. I only have one daughter and I'm desperate

r8

>tfw my government was so unpopular an army of one million fascists, commies, and liberals joined forces to occupy my capital

fuck some concubine or something like that in your court and get some male heirs

I've already seduced all the young ladies in my court. The rest are in their 40s or 50s. Also the fucker won't allow me to divorce my wife. I need to make my own damned church

Could you do one where all nations are cultural/economic unions bar the ones that can't form any unions at all (Japan, Israel, China)?

Alas, it seems the only solution is to murder your wife and get a 16 year old as your new wife

>tfw just died and been succeeded by my son
>he has 5 fucking daughters but no sons
>wife is 44
I fucking hate gavelkind so much

That international calm is shattered by mid-year, when Japanese forces cross Marco Polo bridge and begin a war of conquest against Jiang Jieshi's Nationalist China. The move unites the various Chinese factions behind Jieshi, but with China unindustrialized and backwards, and with corruption rife in its ranks, it seems unlikely that it can overcome the well-organized and mighty Japanese. "The Aryans of the East," as the Fuhrer calls them.

For a long while, Germany maintained positive relations with the Nationalists in China, both as an expediency measure intended to check the expansion of the communists there, but also due to their plentiful natural resources, so necessary for German industry. In light of Germany's growing ties to Japan, however, and the weakness of China's position, Germany is placed in the somewhat awkward position of choosing between her old ally and a potentially much mightier new friend.

The decision is a simple one for the Fuhrer: power first, and all other considerations second. Germany's military advisor to China, von Falkenhausen, is recalled immediately, and Germany recognizes Japan's Manchukuo puppet state.

That's what I'm doing with this, Strasserist Europe of Nations (I have pretty much all European cultures as accepted, rather than assimilating everything to European, though not sure what to do with Albanians to accept them or not) aligned with Eurasia of Russia and China against global capitalist North American Union with ISIS on the sidelines. Might make a Gaddafist North Africa that can expand further. Going to give South America its union too.

Finally got me one. Looks like I won't have to murder my wife after all!

>inb4 you die and your son is murdered by some power-hungry faggot in your court who hated you
Happened to me once, don't trust those fucking boat rides

Don't foget the meme ASEAN.
>though not sure what to do with Albanians to accept them or not
I feel the Albanians from proper Albania would be completely fine with European rule, while the Kosovars would chimp out.

Well I'm still worried because he's not even in the line of succession. Bunch of nobodies except my base-born son

Hey dude, I think you may have missed the Eurasian flag (flag of the Eurasia Movement) I posted before the other thread got nuked.

Oh there we go

Where the fuck do I find the Israel minimod

ISIS keeps auto-annexing Israel for some retarded reason.

Thanks, colors look similar to the Strasser EU which has the (good) implication that they're loosely aligned, like old USSR and PRC.

Well?

Finally, after years of diplomatic struggle, the Italians under Benito Mussolini begin to relent on the question of Austria. The guarantee on its independence is retracted, and negotiations between Germany and Italy move to a new level of friendly cooperation. Although Italy is yet unready to join Germany in a formal allegiance, Austria must now sweat with the knowledge that the Italians no longer protect them from the German bootheel.

For all the danger, though, the Fuhrer has no intention of invading his former homeland. The Anschluss should be peaceful, if possible--or, at least, it should have the appearance of being so. Plans are made to move forward with a program of destabilization in Austria which will make anything but adherence to Berlin's will unthinkable.

nice grobpapaciums fag

Love this AAR.

What is with that huge military population of korea in the HPM? Is this legit?
