Hey, /gsg/ began on /int/

>>74264635
I want to see people of /int/ post their empires. I know there are many players here. Plus /gsg/ are their own community and they act dickishly to outsiders.

Is VIC2 any good? I kinda like EU4 and fucking love CK2. Is it even possible to be Poland in VIC2 without any mods?

>tfw update kills your EU4 Kongolese empire

Can't be bothered to return to a previous version so time for Great Yuan blobbus maximus.

>>74264828
no, Poland is difficult as fuck to play unless you have some serious fucking luck and Austria BTFOs Prussia or Russia kills itself with civil wars.

>>74264828

You can release Poland and play as them. Although they suck.

>every paradox game
>play as Italy
>if no Italy available, form it as Sardinia Piedmont
>always take istria and dalmazia. All of it.

>Albania too hard to take, ottomans always come down with size 70 army to defend it
>I'm sorry brothers
>pass endless hours battling ottomans for Libya and Tunisia
>move down to Ethiopia, acquire all of the horn
>spend the rest of the game doing nothing but to pump infrastructures in my African clay, imagining all the niggas super happy with my ruling and extreme blanda upp going on

>>74264828
Vic2 may be the best game ever. I couldn't get into CK2, didn't really care for EU4 but Vicky is great. EU3 is fine as well.
Poland doesn't exist as the game is from 1830 to 1930. All there is is a one province minor country of Krakow. Forming Poland as them and without cheats is extremely difficult but possible and has been done before.

More like parts of Poland as it is split between Prussia, Russia and Austria. You could play as one of these powers and conquer all the parts and then you can release them and play as them as an in-game function.

You could cheat and create Poland at the beginning and play as them.

Polish-Lithuanin commonwealth is also in the game.

>>74265150
26 hours is nothing in paradox games, people learn new stuff about it after having played 1000 hours

you really have to play 4-5 full games and get your ass handed before you pick up the basics

>>74265150
Took me hald day playing as persia to get the basics.
I just learned factories makes you not need trade/buy resources, quite obvious.
Build canned food factory, get canned food, DUH.
Still not sure how to into huge army.

>>74265150
Play as the Ottomans or Castille if you're still learning. Game's pretty easy and with those nations you can fuck up often without getting wrecked.

>play CK2
>the AI is so retarded that it botches or outright fails to initiate all of the historic nomadic conquerors' campaigns every single time

>Nobody ever touches India, ever, not in the craziest scenario; it just sits there
>the nomads get BTFO'd without fail, which leads to Byzantium ruling the Russian steppes
>the Vikings do fuck all, just sitting in Scandinavia with tens of thousands of looted coins, unless you pick the 867 start where they are preset to invade England like they're supposed to

fuck this game, and fuck EU4 for being a menu simulator

Paradox is run by monkeys and I'm PROUD that I have only ever pirated their game in preference to doling out hundreds of euros for a bunch of spreadshits and 2D art.

>>74265286
Everyone says go Castille or Ottomans, but I think France is the best. You get to try expanding and exploring the world. Best of Castille and Ottomans combined.

>>74265150

>>74268282
The only time I played as Mongolia I got fucked big time so I can't really help you there. But general rules for killing Ming in Mandate of Heaven is to blob to 300 development, then refuse to pay tribute so they break tributary themselves. While you're not a tributary and you're a Horde, they'll get a disaster ticking up which will royally fuck them up once it fires and will quickly tank their mandate to 0. Keep relations up and have a royal marriage to avoid them declaring on you though, the disaster won't tick up if you have a truce or they're winning a war on you.

Pic related. Once this fires, their mandate will drop HARD and once it's at 0 their troops take an extra 50% damage. If you take the mandate from them, they will likely collapse but they will also lose the nomad frontier disaster and you will have to worry about the mandate yourself so be careful with that.

I don't even know how this game is any different from other strategy games, but I hear people complain about Portugal on it from time to time.

Is Portugal overpowered/tricky in any way?

>>74272630
in EU4 they just colonize a lot of south america really early on in the game because they are closer to south america.

>>74272630
Not really, though they do get some advantages. They start off as a historic friend with Castille so they'll always have someone to fight their wars for them and they have great ideas that let them get filthy rich real easy. The only time I see anyone complain about Portugal would be when playing as an African or American nation because AI Portugal can get really aggressive about colonizing and controlling trade nodes and other important provinces. It's also not uncommon to see Portugal blobbing over North Africa and eating the entire Maghreb, just because they can.

Southern Galicia is a thorn in the side of inexperienced Spain players.
Like IRL, in game Castile goes through a crisis upon the death of Enrique IV. Portugal and France will always help the pro-Joanna forces. But you need Isabel to win so the Iberian wedding happens
Also like in real life Portugal is usually backed by England, so unless you rush an annexation Portugal will be your main colonization rival. The game also gives Portugal a head start to colonization so by the time Spain gets around to crossing the Atlantic, Portugal already has a few colonies.
Spain happens to be the preferred tutorial nation in EU4, so Portugal constantly pisses off neophytes.
Experienced players will take exploit the in game mechanics to annex Portugal sans the Azores in the first few decades

Started out as a Sardinian count. United Sardinia, gathered some money and conquered north Africa with a mercenary army. Continued eating up Africa for a while until France was inherited by a heretic. Pope flipped his shit and triggered the Crusades 300 years early. French vassals overthrew the heretic king but the Pope still decided to declare a crusade for Andalusia. I joined it for the trait, but ended up participating the most and got Andalusia.

It is on HPM mod, I have committed genocide several times. And as a result of having that big of population, I got my main cultures dominating all of the world. I think I still have that save, it was really neat.

There is a trick if you RM Ming and then force them into a wart against you they will suffer a -1 stab from break of RM and that can lead to them loosing the mandate and mingplode. But it only works in the very beginning of a game

Tips on how I can win with Byzantium? After the 1.14 update you can't block straits anymore so it's near impossible to win.

I had Serbia and Hungary as my allies and they join my war but instead of targeting Edirne so that I block the strait they just conquer fortless territory.

Pls halp

>>74297861
Pray to god that Poland and Hungary don't rival each other and try to ally both then just play defensive since you're always disadvantaged on the offense in Paradox games

>>74297861
Ally Poland.

>>74297861
the poles are your best bet, austria is a good shot too, and if you can get hungary or serbia thats just gravy.

Just spam liquor factories across the map and you'll be good

>>74305433
Keeping this thread alive just for this.

>>74282325
Go state capitalist at the beginning so you can control what factories to build where, liquor sells well, if there are many wars in the world then so do canned food and supplies in general. Usually, the initial national focus is on clergy (literacy) in your most populated province. When you get 2.5% clergy or more (maximum efficiency is 4%), get clergy in your next most populated province etc.

None. Don't want any of that white guilt later on.

get the ultimate mod. You can play as poland lithuania. But in my experience it just gets fucked up by russia everytime. Also industry sucks shit.

I'll be taking Tsargrad like my true Slavic heritage tells me to, maybe also the holyland, then I'll free the Western Slavs and assert myself as the true based and white leader of the Slavic peoples

My only goal the entire game was to annex and genocide the Swedes. I used the remove undesirables decision as much as possible and spent my national focus points on encouraging immigration. By the end of the game Sweden was majority Arab Muslim.

The light green states are majority Arab, blue is Swedish. Interestingly, my Berber pops really loved Aaland. It was the first part of Sweden to become majority non-Swedish, and mostly from Berber immigration.

I hate Communism, but in Victory II it's tied with Fascism for best ideology. Liberalism and Conservationism are worthless because they don't have state capitalism or planned economy. Reactionaries never last into the late game, but it's the best early game ideology.

Some Communist parties in Victoria II are pacifists tho, making them worthless.
