/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.

Reminder to report and ignore shitposting.

Reposting from the last thread.
What do?

For what game is the random country picker ?

...

>/pol/kid can't even reply to the proper post

How is ck2 reddit?

Treat yourself

I'm not him. The original guy is quite literally /r/eddit, that's still a fact

Forced meme

Is Dirthmarschen supposed to be OP and blobby?

see

What's the problem?

Problem? there is none, I'm , just wondering what I can accomplish with this.

I just went to reddit out of curiosity and saw this
How is this even possible? Just how reddit do you have to be?

Reddit thread

Stop obsessing over other sites.

Look at that screenshot
fucking look at it

Victoria 2

What's wrong with it? Some player blob snaking to border china? Or him calling the Basileus "maximos" when that's latin and the byzantines are greek?

>soviets weren't russian
What?

>3 IPs in the other thread at 12 posts
>one of them complaining about how there was only 1 before him
ah yes, the state of /gsg/

Blobbing, playing before 800 and so on
not him btw

...

I think he means soviets were composed of a lot of nationalities.
It's literally that control freak trying to bump his thread so mods don't delete it. He's pissed off we are not using his thread.
He's always causing these thread wars desu

>It's literally that control freak trying to bump his thread so mods don't delete it. He's pissed off we are not using his thread.
I always love how it's the people complaining about people doing things that do them the most.

>he original guy is quite literally /r/eddit, that's still a fact
What makes that a fact?

There's literally nothing wrong with blobbing in CK2.

I don't think he's complaining about it legitimately, he was just doing it for the shitposting. Same reason he likes to report these threads and create thread wars. He's just doing it for the shitposting, the brony and waggle pastebin literally tell us that, so it's not a problem being a hypocrite if all you want is shitpost

I can only imagine the lives of some people whose only purpose is shitposting in an autistic subgroup of people dedicated to maps on a Mongolian basket weaving forum.

Why do you fags care so much about this?

Some people find purpose in destroying what other people enjoy. Like griefers. In the end we are still primates, but some of us like to fling shit like chimpanzees. They do it anonymously most of the time because it's easier.

Time to update the OP

>uniting japan as Oda

>who is replying to all the other threads posts, because it's either an excellent false flag or they are just seething

Yes it is.

>So it's exciting times for the Far East in the upcoming 1.24 Japan update which people can expect before the new year rolls around. The update will be free, contain the above map changes, more ideas, bugfixes and more. Consider it an early Christmas present from us to you. We'll go into detail about some of the fixes and balance changes next week. See you then!
So before christmas then?

>meanwhile nothing for CK2
Sounds promising.

t. reddit

What?

Because calling someone reddit is a serious accusation

Ck2 is literally the only game where it's ok to blob.
Prove me wrong.

This is literally an anonymous board. Who fucking cares. Who'd track, who'd judge.

btw wasn't Oda in the game before?

Wasn't Paradox supposed to announce a new game sometime soon? Project Augusts or something like that?

Can anyone tell me if the mod WtWSMS is already updated t the current version of CK2?

Just like yours.

When's hip gonna be updated?

>Compatibility: CK2 Vanilla 2.7.2
Nope.
Keep an eye out on their github
github.com/loup99/WtWSMS

I swear those fuckers take any excuse to not write dev diaries for CKII

Ok, thanks

fe weeks probably

desu I don't even know why they are still making expansions for CK2, it has tons of DLC for it already and it's close to its "end life"
they should just make CK3 already and includ esome new features instead of the really minor ones the last DLCs area

btw if you want to keep up to date with mod releases, add
github.com/loup99/WtWSMS/releases.atom to a RSS-emailing service like
blogtrottr.com
This way it will send you an email when the mod has a new release

Defend what? I ain't watching no shitty youtube videos nigga.

>This mod strives to emulate the difficulties of managing the realm and capturing the deadly, unforgiving life of the late middle ages/early modern period in Western Europe while highlighting the struggle between the sovereigns and their nobles. It is a complete overhaul with new mechanics and greatly altered vanilla mechanics designed to create a very challenging and tense atmosphere.
Anyone know if this mod is any good?

It makes money though.

Anyone conquered China in ck2 yet?

>Castles holdings have the capability to build the “gathering” buildings in order to harness the resources while city/town holdings establish the manufacturing buildings.

youtube.com/watch?v=WHV4A98UG1g

RIP

No, no-one though about making that.

88

Looks too ambitious. Is he just one guy doing this?

F

Yes and I can tell you that the war was fucking frustrating even when I had a massive advantage.

Ck2 feels very complete. What features are missing that would justify investing time and resources into a sequel?

I find it hard to believe CK2 is still making a lot of money after 5 years.

How many troops do they spawn? 80k? Also did you get any rare artifacts?

I think so year. It looks good though, it could be a great mod if he doesn't give up on it and maybe we can have an alternative to CK2+/HIP which are basically the same thing.

The fact that under socialism the youth was much more disciplined and not acting as a bunch of entitled brats.
Sadly I can not argue with this. The pure amount of degeneracy I see in my lawless country is enough to make anyone advocate for socialism's return. Thankfully I know shits a little bit better in the west.

Been playing AC Origins a lot. Is there any good Rome mods for CK2 or am I stuck with Rome:Total War and that one old paradox game?

Tactical battles. Hidden traits so the entire world doesn't know someone is gay. Naval battles.
Just to mention a few.

Spawned a stack of about 175k. Got 4 artifacts you can get from the "Request Artifact" boon. I assume invading just gives you every unique artifact, I had a ton of them already.

New engine will be tested in an upcoming side game, and then said engine will be refined and used in Victoria 3, their next big title

Screencap this post you know i'll be right

Lux Invicta is shit. Avoid it all costs. There's just "dark ages mod" I think like "when the world stopped making sense"

This is like predicting a black man will rape.

It's more likely that Victoria 3 will be a test game.
Also they didn't make a test game for HoI4.

Doesn't it install a ruler of your dynasty on the chinese throne?
Like the user who posted Hohenzoller China?
>Paradox will do the same thing they did before, which is proven to make profits
>Screencap this I am literally Nostradamus

>Doesn't it install a ruler of your dynasty on the chinese throne?
Yes, it's basically all it does.

>Doesn't it install a ruler of your dynasty on the chinese throne?

Yes and you get 10k gold, 5 or 4k china mana and trade privileges. That's it really.

white men

how mch grace does that get you

Lux Invicta isn't bad. I had a fun run playing as a Phoenician slave trader. I was making tons of cash kidnapping little blond girls and selling them my income was so high I could afford to keep mercenaries permanently hired. You should give it a try and see if you can restore the spqr.

WTWSMS (when the world stopped making sense) is very good too.

So you can develop your country with Chinese money?

Lux Invicta is pure meme material.

See

It was, but only at later start dates and without unique ideas.

This.

is that the one with the HUGE COCKS and toothbrushing

Why exactly is WTWSMS good? I won't pay money to paradox just to look at a mod's features(other than pushing the start date back)

I think that's VIET

Why
Oda is one of the most important clans in Japanese history

Yeah, that would be nice, but personally I think it would be more interesting if paradox tried to visit a different time period entirely, like rome.

Yes.

That would just be a slightly altered ck2

There's literally a GitHub link in this thread. Why would you need to pay money?
