We don't have an official steam or discord group.

They are known for false-flagging. Report and ignore it. How fares your empire, /gsg/? On this day in history, the 20th of August: 636 –Battle of the Yarmuk: Marking the first great wave of Muslim conquests and the rapid advance of Islam outside Arabia, Arab forces led by Khalid ibn al-Walid defeat the Byzantine Empire and take control of the Levant. 917 – Battle of Acheloos: Tsar Simeon I of Bulgaria decisively defeats a Byzantine army. 1672 – Former Grand Pensionary Johan de Witt and his brother Cornelis are lynched by a mob in The Hague. 1858 – Charles Darwin first publishes his theory of evolution through natural selection in The Journal of the Proceedings of the Linnean Society of London, alongside Alfred Russel Wallace's same theory. 1940 – In Mexico City, exiled Russian revolutionary Leon Trotsky is fatally wounded with an ice axe by Ramón Mercader. He dies the next day. 1968 – Cold War: Warsaw Pact troops invade Czechoslovakia, crushing the Prague Spring.

>The investigation was halted by Hermann Göring, the commander-in-chief of the Luftwaffe, who produced an affidavit by Milch's mother stating that his biological father was her uncle, Karl Brauer, meaning he was a product of incest but not a Mischling. Milch was then issued with a German Blood Certificate though his legal paternity was never changed.[2] Those events and the later extension of the "Certificate of German Blood" were the background to Göring's statement "I decide who is a Jew in the air force". oh wow very cool

a strange thing i've noticed with this game using the road-builder to make a route through multiple 'locations', the game leads me to choose something inefficient i've done all the math, and the route that builds the road through obolensk is cheaper than the route that leads through serpukhov but when i actually lay the entire route from borovsk to volkona, the game chooses the serpukhov route this makes the road builder unreliable, wouldn't you say? inconvenient i have to math everything!

Anon08/24/26, 18:55No.2474081

well maybe i'm exaggerating by saying they're competing with paradox, because none of the games linked to them have actually been direct candidate replacement of paradox games, other than memegame2 >is hooded horse [...] manure lords and gelded destiny? yes yes

Anon08/24/26, 19:03No.2474089

you must recall incorrectly as the only game that fits the memegame2 criteria is crusader kings 2 hoi2 is fun and eu2 is a fun boardgame facsimile and has more historical flavor than eu4, while victoria 2 is obviously the best paradox game because eu5 is not finished yet and doesn't have total overhaul mods like hpm

Anon08/24/26, 19:08No.2474091

isn't it interesting how people don't make total overhaul mods for paradox games these days? as in mods that stay within the historical timeframe but improve upon the flavour and mechanics eu3 had plenty, so did eu4, ck2, vicky2. hoi2 had its own overhaul mods released as separate games even (DH and AoD). even imperator got itself an overhaul mod — i believe it was called invictus but modern paradox games don't get em: ck3 has none, vic3 has none, neither does eu5, so we're completely reliant on paradox's idea of balancing and flavor, which modders have historically done better

Anon08/24/26, 19:11No.2474094

next time you ask yourself why paradox games have become shit, remember that it has private investors that probably exercise power and influence over what kind of bullshit goes into these games these are the two swedish fuckers and then there's tencent, but i doubt they're at all involved in communicating with the devs

so i was searching high and low for map mods that i can somewhat tolerate using to play the visually atrocious game called hearts of iron 4 this is what i found i'm going to showcase them here, i'm curious as to what you guys think i should go with usinghere's the first one i found, with the 'water reflections' effect turned on

and here is the same mod, but with 'reflections' effect turned off

Anon08/26/26, 13:06No.2475416

and then here is another one it looks a lot like vanilla but when it's all zoomed out, the country colors are way more opaque 'reflections' turned off, which is a must-have for something closer to a one-tone sea color

and then there is this one i respect the mod for trying to not sharing any of the vanilla's filthy aesthetic, but zooming in, i kind of wish the colors would become more of an 'illustrated' tone, something similar to eu5's non-3D colors zoomed out i like it a lot, but zoomed in...

Anon08/26/26, 13:14No.2475430

i would, but i really don't like the land distribution event in that game, where germany inflexibly took land that i wanted, which messed with my map painting autism i also realized that with mods, i can actually make hoi4 function more a crusader kings, europa universalis or victoria game, where peace deals can be made and fighting stops momentarily between two countries instead of being this constant chaos which i'm not accustomed to

Anon08/26/26, 14:30No.2475487

yes, i know what you're talking about and that's more or less my stance on all the other paradox games HOWEVER, it's simply not feasible in a game that spans 10 years at most. you do not have the time nor manpower to build up a small cunt to win the weltkrieg, realistically

Anon08/26/26, 15:12No.2475514

a ww2 game by definition cannot accommodate this "clean slate, do what you want" style of thinking, because ww2 is a direct continuation of ww1 it's like in eu4 if you play as hungary or poland the first 50 years everything you do is in one way or another related to the crusade of varna and its aftermath

always thought it's funny that the bible (new testament) is explicitly anti-procreation and pro-celibacy but modern "christians" pick and choose what aspects of Jesus' (in this case Paul's but he claims to have a vision from God so if you believe him it still counts) in the most nonsensical way possible just to align themselves with chudderism. In the catholic orthodox and anglican churches they at least have excuse of church doctrine superseding the bible because of apostolic tradition (lol) but i honestly have zero clue what the protestant excuse is supposed to be here, feels like the sort of thing where if you confront them they'll just scream "satan!!" and "liberal!!" at you until you leave. If the world made sense church influence should DECREASE pop growth is what I'm saying. This however isn't nearly as bizzare of a choice as clergy loyalty increasing reaserch speed (or, to be fair, "advance" speed, since it's not literally reaserch) in eu5, and by a very significant margin too. Explain that one.

But if they are not practising self-control, they should marry. For it is better to marry than to be aflame with passion.Paul in no uncertain terms states that if you have the self-control you should be celibate (as he is), but if you don't then marriage is the preferable solution to sexual immorality aka sex without marriage. He also says if you converted after marrying you shouldn't leave your partner in order to be celibate, with further exceptions regarding their religions.It's a nuanced position but it's clearly more pro-celibacy than not with celibacy being seen as the ideal and marriage as a lesser evil.>hurr durr durr it's le bait go stick your head in the sand some more if you don't like it.

1 army tradition is worth 5 morale + the other buffs you get from it so you trade 10 morale for 5 ICA theyre probably about equal

Anon08/27/26, 01:31No.2476084

army tradition is easy to keep up while at war, especially if you have high siege ability; 1 fort = 1 army tradition meanwhile polen gets extra manpower and monthly war exhaustion reduction, the latter is deceptively very powerful, especially stacked with optimism from inno. if you're not lazy you can stay at war pretty much forever in 30 years of the game i've shown strength to bohemia twice for a total of 600 monarch points, that's extra 1.7 mana per month lol

If pure CCA is the focus Polish ideas are better for the morale. If better army quality overall is the focus then PLC is better for the ICA as morale is a very common military modifier to acquire

Anon08/27/26, 10:09No.2476242

it's just 5% infantry combat extra while you lose 15% morale and 25% womanpower to me the polish ideas are better for fighting and plc ideas are better for economy

Anon08/27/26, 10:11No.2476243

15% morale is peanuts when the AI is retarded and doesn't know how to stack modifiers. Off the top of my head you could get bonus morale from : >100 PP >100 Prestige >100 Army Tradition >Morale advisor + event >DoF >Crusade bonus if Catholic >Shit-ton of policies 15% morale really isn't that big of a deal, and you mog the AI with the above even without that bonus so it's superfluous

Anon08/27/26, 10:14No.2476245

but it's 15% morale extra which makes it real easy to stackwipe enemies because morale damage scales with max morale also by that logic you don't need to stack any modifiers you can just win against the ai with neapolitan national ideas (i remember they were the worst back in the day)

Anon08/27/26, 10:15No.2476246

Also womxnpower is irrelevant by the time you unlock barracks or soldiers households if you're really struggling.

i'm sure some people want to play a game set in mad max and some people don't want to play a high fantasy game. the latter is very overplayed recently but whether that is enough for the game to become a moderate success remains to be seen. if paradox is any smart they made the game on the cheap. it certainly looks cheap

>it's also so weird that you can't occupy "locations" in ck3, it's like they got the eu5 provinces but without the ability to split them? counties in ck3 start out mostly empty, depending on 'where' they are (counties occupied by tribals start out as very undeveloped, only one 'tile'/location of each county is capturable, but capturing that one tile will capture the entire county instantly, because no other tiles are considered relevant in the game... but also keep in mind that the game requires an investment of time to siege these tiles, compared to eu5's similar time metrics) yes, the eu5 way of sieging seems a mild improvemenet unfortunately, blobbing in eu5 isn't as flexible as one would hope you can't really shape your borders to the exact locations in some circumstances, for example when you're at war with someone and you're sieging down one of their allies, you can't outright eliminate/annex their ally from the game, the peace deal will force you to let aside a single location which will be the remainder of their ally also blobbing, from my experience, has been much harder than ck3's tribal system plus eu5 is currently a buggy piece of shit that gave me a terrible stability hit from using a parliament casus belli... mix that with an already more complicated game and you might be in for a headache, so treat that game with caution

Got me thinking about 1448 now... Back when the Turks defeated the Magyars, Wallachs, and Croats at Kosovo, therefore granting the Turks the Balkans foothold where by they would go on to conquer both Albania and Wallachia in the proceeding few years. To add insult to injury the Serbians didn't even bother to fight to defend their own territory. As I said it was left mainly to Hungarians and Romanians and a small number of Croatians. But the Serbs did capture the defeated Hungarians, then blamed them for the damage to buildings in Kosovo, rather than the Turkish invaders. The Serbian Despot Branković then even forced the Hungarian royal regent and top military commander Hunyadi János to ransom himself from the Serb dungeons in exchange for a total of 100,000 florins + agreeing to betrothe his daughter to the Serbian despot's son + agreeing to leave his firstborn behind as the depot's hostage.That's some real Crusader Kings type bullshit... only in CK3 I don't believe you can demand both money AND additional demands in a ransom.

Anon08/28/26, 15:45No.2477226

Grammatically - yeah, most likely, the Normans had no impact on it. Vocabulary - probably only with words that entered the language from about the 16th century onwards (i.e. words that came from enlightenment thought and not a foreign aristocracy). Sound changes and standard language - potentially not. One of the long-term effects of the Norman conquest was the concentration of power in the south east and the east midlands dialect spreading to it through migration which gave us the modern standard language. It's possible, maybe even likely, that London would still have become the administrative seat - it was an important city before the Norman conquest - but it isn't a given and, if it didn't, standard English could take on a lot of what we see today as 'archaic' features of wherever power ended up being concentrated.

by manacel i meant that your assumption that i was behind in tech was driven by your own experience not having enough mana to reach the feats i was capable of but reading it back i think you didn't mean to imply i was behind in tech and just meant that if i had taken more ideas i would be and so i should've taken a different idea group to which i'd reply that while i don't remember precisely the situation i was in before i took the mil group i'm pretty sure i was okay enough on mil tech and mil mana gen to do so and still get the benefits of it and didn't have any better choice, probably needed the first quant idea more than some trade onesregarding the economy upon reconsideration you are probably correct and i wrote it off improperly if we are to consider my economy compared to my goals it is not sufficient even if i do not adopt the whole game playing style that you might reccomend me so i will need to fix that (it was 60 for a moment because i got an idea but its 58 again because i pissed off the bourgs) not having light ships going is not good and i would probably be making more money if i had them i will not improoov any further than necessary thovgh

he was "one of the good ones" you see piłsudzki's funeral was hitler's only state visit to poland by the waytried the same gamble again, this time with a fellow slav and it went through. no clue what determines being okay or not here.tried to get 5% taxes, i can tell you right now this isn't worth it, bad decision, eh, fucked up.Here's two events paired. We have no qualms with arresting foreign missionaries, that's a given. We no longer care if Halych likes us or not, they broke off, they're dead to us. But what do we do about this guy tho? We do unironically need the money, but it's kind of a pitiful amount all things considered. Our income is boosted by minting, it's normally just 8 per month (this is AFTER getting 4 from hungary and 1.6 from novgorod), but I would say that for sake of consistency and for religious influence it's still worth it to kill him... idk, is it? we DO need the money. There's also the issue that i have no clue what to dowith the legitemacy, there are no towns to grant additional rights to. Does anyone have any hints or suggestions? How does one spend 5 legitimacy exactly in this game, granting a privelige? can't grant one to anyone other than the nobility and while "elaborate court life" (bottom left) would be pretty nice, nobility influence is still too high so granting them one would be a mistake... right? i mean it's only 20%... i think i'll do it, but i'd like to hear your thoughts on this, maybe some alternatives. 5 legitimacy shouldnt just go to waste like that.

We're done here. By the way, the income is bloated because the mint is churning out as many coins as it can, close to 10% inflation now, this makes every cost 10% higher and climbing.

Trying to immerse myself into the eu5 time frame and the protestant reformation... I gotta say I don't get the appeal of the "Traditional Latin Mass (tm)". Like, you're not going to church to learn something or to get an idea put into your head, you're just going to listen to a guy mumble some mumbo jumbo you don't understand a word of and look around the building's interior? Maybe do some chanting? I don't get it, what are you supposed to get out of it? Is it like an emperor's new clothes thing where everyone pretends they totally get what he's saying and it's super profound and if you don't understand you're an idiot..? Unless you're studying Latin as part of your pharmacology degree or something, uhhh, no you don't understand latin either bro he might as well just be making random mouth noises. Like, how is this any different to going to a Spanish language mass when you don't speak Spanish? Shit like this is why I go a variation of protestant every time, I just don't get it and the catholic church officially bans publishing any arguments for since like the 1960s so..?

Anon08/31/26, 12:08No.2479036

the main differences between atheists and theists aren't some philosophical differences, that might actually be where the high society discourse is because both sides like to look more profound than they actually are, but the ACTUAL difference for most people in the west boils down to: 1) if you hear a story of some people saying they totally saw a magic trick, does that more or less prove magic is real? 2) do you get high off of ritualistic chanting? (strong version: ritual in general) 3) do you get so impressed with big buildings that you don't internalise that they're manmade structures anyone could build with enough money?You seem like the kind or person to answer no to all 3, that makes you an atheist. At some point something might flip in your head and instead of reading books or playing eu5 you'll start to ritualitically chant for hours instead, then you'll find a really big building to chant in and from there on you're mostly there already.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bracteate >The bracteates were usually called back regularly, about once or twice a year, and had to be exchanged for new coins (Renovatio Monetae). For example, receiving three new coins for four old coins. The withheld 4th coin was called strike money and was often the only tax revenue of the coin mint-master. This system worked like a demurrage currency: People were discouraged from hoarding their coins, because they lost their value. So, this money was used more as a medium of exchange than for storing value. This increased the velocity of money and stimulated the economy. if you ever had any doubts that the germans were evil

bad post the first dlc in eu4 were cash grabs introducing core mechanics locked behind paywalls and in the ones released after they managed to get worse go back and look what mare nostrum does for example, a tiny bit of shitty content for north africa (they released WAY more for FREE in later patches) and then a few mechanics for core gameplay for 15 bucks and the people ate it up because the core game itself was fun, dlc or not. these days paradox gives you the core mechanics for free and people are butthurt over 20 bucks for a flavor dlc because the game itself is slow and boringalso the final game is just the best state it ever was, missions are casual fun and give way for mods to make countries interesting. theres a reason people still replay eu4

With lithuania? never i'm afraid, somewhat my fault... the teutons won their innitial war with them, they made them annul all treaties with Poland. Then when Poland war with the teutons, i decided to take ALL their land... including those lithuanian cores you see there. I could have released them for less warscore but eh... the vassal of Kaunas (that has YET to core all of that by the way) was free so... honestly, they're right to be upset, but they're pagans and clearly a sinking ship so i'd say it was the right call. Besides, we have this really cool personal union with hungary instead... one where we have a hungarian king... that gives us -5% to all estate satisfaction from being a foreinger... and fucked up our country with 2 noble privliges that cripple taxes... ehhh... yeah it was worth it... (it says hungarian union because poalnd and hungary are lesser partners, working on this... i think it's going to have to be a civil war, but i need hungary's help with Bohemia first.

I took over Tyrone because I'm a good little threadling like that and people have asked me to "go west". From there it's been a case of "well now that my standing army is here and I only have 1 transport...", by which i mean, i'm protecting the good people of ireland from the british aggressors of course. Here's the thing though, the guy that we're at war with has an ally, he's cobeligeriesed so we CAN make a tirbutary of him too. Look at that antagonism though. And it all goes to Bohemia pretty much, that modifier from already hating you is crazy. can't say it doesn't make sense, but it's a lot. Should I expand Polish influence into ireland even further? and yes, polish troops are still marching on finland.On the plus side, the king isn't THAT bad and we got a cool statue out of this war at least.

Fuck it we ball. 2 new tributaries join the club.Look at who else joins the club, Norway and their little dog on a leash denmark decided to invade sweden, how original... I guess help is appriciated, but norway and denmark both hate me, I don't like the idea of either (especially denmark) growing too big for us to handle. ESPECIALLY forming scandinavia. I'm still going to take max money and war reps from sweden though. War update: check out the aftermath of the Turov independence war. If someone was saying Lithuania kind of looks like poland before, what do you think of it now? this bordergore is actually justifiable, Turov was forced by Lithuania to switch religion, that's what this whole war is about basically, and so they were b-lining to get provinces of "their" religion. What a shitshow. Something we'll have to correct...

ok eu4pros, i need your opinion on my next idea group: do i go espionage or trade? yeah, espionage is great all around and would also make my cavalry even better down the line, but trade would make me a lot more money right now also judge my trade setup

Anon08/31/26, 21:47No.2479509

We technically, in a weird way, peacefully enlarged our realm recently, One of our tributaries just got a vassal on their own. It's a tribe that I didn't bother making a claim on because just look at that population. How did it get That empty? to give you some perspective, 1000 is what you need to work the default size 1 RGO that every province starts with. There's places in the arctic circle with bigger populations. But congratulations on the vassal I guess. Didn't bother screenshotting every one but I got A LOT of money by looting finland and their nobles, at least 80 ducats.Here's a proposed peacedeal, I would really love to hear what you think, it might be a bit much. Money and war reps are obvious and necessary in our situation, every little pittence of money we get has been going to paying off debt so far. I don't really *want* Scania that much but if I don't take it Denmark will, and it's full of their cores. They would benefit from it way too much IMO and so it's prudent we nip it in the bud and take over. The land right next to Novgorod I need for a very good reason, I know i'm being vague but you'll see. It'll got to the vassal. Technically I could only take 1 location there but I think this way is actually prettier, the lake makes for a natural border plus it separates them from novgorod via claimed land. And as for the most controversial part of the peace deal that I'm really not sure about... Finland. the Duchy of Finland is a historic subject I can release there that has 4 cores (so 3 to reclaim) in the area. the plan is to release it as a vassal then transfer it to Oreshek as their vassal. Why? you'll see. Next war with sweden the borders will be a bit cleared up, I plan to take all of Findalnd (modern day) for a vassal at some point, but as of now it'd basically be the free city of Åbo, and i don't know how to feel about that. Isn't that a bit much? What do you think, should I scrap this idea and not... well... blob?

the south isn't Arctic but it still has barely any pops and low market access from Riga Market access is basically a throughout modifier in a game with no other throughout modifiers, a market access of 50% means the BEST buildings in Finland will have a throughput of 50% of that of Riga When you go up to the Arctic provinces it only gets worse.

yeah i saw that and I thought that it seemed reasonable, though with all the objections idk why I shouldn't just create a market in finland then continue as normal, that should solve the access problem. also it wouldn't tank crown power if done via a vassal. Speaking of, this is why i wanted to do all this time and why i took that land off of Sweden. new subject type, England can do this anywhere they want where as Poland has to make them in this roundabout way but here it is, a dominion. now i have a vassal that is dutybound to spread Polish culture, or at least that's what the tooltip claims. fingers crossed this actually works. Also idk if it's an exploit or not, I couldn't do it earlier due to a "distance" modifier but then I took some shit provinces next to it that aren't connected to anything and it just worked, if the vassal had more than 1 province i could've just revoked it done this then given it back. but hey it worked.also negative stability is really bad, don't do it.

Instead of ending on some moment of triumph, we end on a ragequit. What am i looking at exactly? Why is Bohemia allowed to spam these like that on a 10 year (?) cooldown? is there any counterplay to this or does every HRE province ever taken eventually get unlawful territory at some point? fuck -_- And why does coring take so long for my vassal? I get that it's not supposed to be instant but don't you think it's a bit excessive to have to wait until the new world gets discovered? any way I can speed this up or are they just fucked forever because I didn't create a separate vassal for them to diplo annex instead? Not only that but this independence league is a real clown fiesta, what a diverse cast of characters. an english realm fighting side by side with an irish tribe fighting side by side with lithuanian pagans and danish colonials, all in the name or east volhynia... believable worlds... tho i get it, it's like a mini-coalition.next time, i think it's necessary to attack into this before it grows further, i thought it'd peak at denmark but no, it's growing.

This are going terribly. Lithuania has chosen to destroy my plans by converting to catholicism, rendering my (if I understand the game correctly) CB useless. (It will dissapear as soon as it's fabricated) The plan was to attack into this quasi-coalition before truces with others who would like to join end. Now that's nearly impossible. By the time a new CB would be fabricated, truce with Bohemia would already be up. But there's one ace up my sleeve, the Tributary CB on Munster. Can't cobeligerise this way and the CB prevents taking land. This would mean this war would have to be for exclusively war reps + money pretty much, which is fine by me honestly, we have blobbed far enough. The problems with this approach are: >we need to actually siege down Munster (this is hard because our only forces on Ireland are the standing army of 400 men (100 are auxilaries that can't fight) >we can't take the land in Lithuania which is what I actually wanted (they have provinces of mazovian culture) >with norway and denmark in, i don't know if I can manage to end this war before 1375 (truce with bohemia) I'm really scared that if I don't declare on bohemia as soon as the truce expires, they will start or join a coalition and crush me that way. They ARE looking for war, it says so in the UI. I know that it says we're stronger but that's only because of hungary joining, and i don't know if i trust them to actually attemmpt to march onto anyone other than volhynia, lithuania and cilli. Lithuania is honestly doubtful.What should be done here in your opinion? I'm leaving this one to the council. We can either >declare on munster sometime within the next year >wait until the CB on lithuania finishes being made and hope that it works (extremely doubtful) >just ignore the independence movement and focus on gathering strength for the bohemia (and allies) war >grant volhynia independence and be done with it, it's 3 shit provinces not worth the salt (fair) Vote now!

why would i ever switch off parliament when parliament grants me great things like 30 government reform progress or 5% crownland which is around 3k gold at this point in the game?

Anon09/03/26, 00:06No.2480858

because its tied to your T1 gubmint reform you will get rid of through a mission later for something better and you dont want to take the reform that deletes your noble to have a parliameme absolutism is king lategame

Anon09/03/26, 00:08No.2480860

absolutism is just 5% discipline and 30% core creation cost reduction meh

Anon09/03/26, 00:13No.2480863

it's still a decent modifier to stack although i think going overkill and shooting for max absolutism is only necessary for wc

THINK ABOUT THE ECONOMICS. THINK ABOUT THE BORDERS. THINK ABOUT THE ABSOLUTE AURA.meanwhile hungary is still roleplaying 1848 Austria-Hungary with 3 pixels of territory and a dreampoland poster: “behold my encirclement” hungary poster: “BEHOLD MY AUSTRIAN SUCCESSOR STATE” everyone else: bro what are you DOINGthe map is NOT gonna paint itself boys, lock in and stop doing the cringe austria larp

Spain can wait, I was planning on vassalizing Aragon for the easy reconquest war on Castile. Poland abuse is far from over; once they're buckbroken enough I might be gracious enough to let them serve as the Emperor's lapdog. Also I was going to post peace deal but image limit has been reached bros this is it
