Hey /gsg/, in your Vicky 2 games, have you ever had any good AI driven WW1 like scenarios?
I experienced a great one recently in the new Napoopan mod. I'll blogpost a bit to get things started
>Germany, Yugo, and Bulgaria allied monarchies
>Germany had suffered defeats before, and France had completely recovered from civil war
>France and denmark-norway suffer communist revolutions
>Italy run by socialists declares war on Yugo
>Germany and Bulgaria join to defend Yugo
>France and Spain join to defend Italy
>Austria, a traditional German ally, betrays Germany just as it is about to break the Franco-Italian lines
>Russia then joins on the side of Germany, to avenge earlier defeat to austria
>Romania, Poland join Germany due to longstanding tensions with austria
>Japan joins its fellow monarchies against the communists (Japan had recently put down a massive {1k+ stack} communist revolution), but they have done nothing effectively with their military all game
>Just as it appears that the Coalition of monarchs will triumph, Denmark Norway invades Russia and Germany with two 90 strength doomstacks

>The Italians lose a half million in bloody mountain warfare in southern germany and the balkans
>The Austrians throw their men into the meatgrinder against technologically superior german troops in dug in positions, and make slow but steady progress while their eastern units fight off the polish-Russian-romanian forces

>>121170885
You don't understand. I'm not trying to attracting immigrants to my country, I'm trying to get people to move out of Scotland and into my colonies in Africa.
>>121170708
In order to make people go to your colonies, these factors matter:
Is transportation your penal code?
Is there unemployment in scotland?
Are there no factories in Scotland?
Is there high population density, or high consciousness among your poor populations?
Every "yes" to an above question helps you make people move to colonies.
>>121170908
The eternal kraut
A fearsome, brave warrior
Now he is a c-uck>fucking hiroshima and his wordfilters
>>121170708
It will only ever happen if you have a fuckton of pops. I don't know if high unemployment affects it but since the game is generally broken and most RGOs will have massive unemployment most of the time if your population is large enough, immigration will just happen whether your trying or not. It's easy as hell to completely fill the entirety of African with Chinese pops for example since China is utterly broken with population, and even most large Euro countries it will happen without trying. But you're never going to turn the Congo into a Belgian state, for example.
>>121171115

>>121171195

>>121170284
dunno where you live but it's shitty cider here
>>121173326
Destroying factories will make your pops stop promoting to craftsmen, and will make those now stuck farmer and laborers more likely to move to the colonies. Essentially, choose one or two states to be your industry states, and leave the others pastoral if you want max emigration
>>121173431

unemployed craftmen (and clecks) will only move to a colony if it has become a state and has factories. If they can't do that they will go and feed the US.
Clergymen, soldiers and unemployed farmer are the ones who will move to the colonies.
why is it so great bros?

dont forget the important bureaucrats
HPM, I don't know if you noticed but many times Maharashtra ends uo with their single state (Bombay, that is) considered to be a colony, regardless of them being civilized or not.

Since I did a lot of the heavy lifting, I think I shouldfeel entitled in using the console togive Italy southern France and me Northern France.

Italy really needs some sort of malus to their military, maybe an organisation drop or something? The only war they won from 1836-1936 on their own was the Italo-Turkish war for Libya, during which no large scale battles took place. It is only historical, therefore to accurately simulate the Italian military of the period.
>>121181425
Post unification, a minor malus would not be out of place. Perhaps a -10% to org regen and total org, negatable if they somehow acquire all cores.

In 1936, Italy was a staunchly divided. In the north, Italy was ruled by the Pope in an Italian Federation. In the south, a Socialist Republic controlled Naples and Sicily. The Italian Federation was a middling power, surrounded by enemies. However, a miraculous series of events propelled the federation to the world stage.
In 1938, Pope Pius XI died and was succeeded by Pope Julius IV, a staunch nationalist. Following the outbreak of war in the Austro-Hungarian Empire, Julius allied himself with Hungary. After a series of stunning victories, Italy regained the lost territories of Trento, Venetia, and Istria while Hungary, Croatia, and Bosnia were granted independence. Austria was reduced to a puppet state controlled by the Italian Federation. However, despite these victories, the Italian Federation still did not have Southern Italy. Due to an alliance with the Commune of France, Syndicalist Italy was free from the Pope's grasp. This would change in 1939.
After years of tension, the Commune of France declared war on the German Empire. Despite being the victor of the First Weltkrieg, Germany had begun stagnating. While it was still the world's strongest power, Syndicalism was steadily growing in strength. This made the conflict between the two arch enemies especially bloody. Initially, it looked like the Syndicalists had the upper hand, annexing Flanders-Wallonia and capturing Alsace-Lorraine. However, in a heroic move, the Pope declare war upon the Commune and its allies. Years of swift military buildup enabled the Federation to sweep over Syndicalists. By 1940, Southern Italy was back under control. In France, Commune forces were being pushed back after an Italian offensive captured the key cities of Marseilles, Lyon, and Toulouse. On the German front, French forces had been pushed out of Wallonia and Alsace-Lorraine. By 1941, the Commune was defeated. In a twist of irony, France would be split in half just like Italy had been. (Will continue later - have to go)

The NF will make people more likely to chose the state you choose to immigrate to, it doesn't make people more likely to emigrate. You need that first. Conversely, the Emigrate NF will increase the number of people emigrating, but won't make it more likely for them to emigrate.

Uh, I don't think that was all of it. It's hard for me to remember for sure, because the third pastebin's first half was reworded stuff from the second pastebin to make it make more sense, but the second half was new suggestions which didn't get included into the second pastebin originally. I don't think that has it, though. Not your fault, because you probably saw the pastebin and thought it was just a repeat.
Double my fault though, because I deleted that third pastebin from my drive, and I don't remember exactly what it had in it anymore. I didn't save the link, either, so probably triple my fault.
Didn't the long-range archive go down, too? If it did, I have no idea how I'm gonna find the link. I might have to just try to remember what the suggestions were from memory.

Not until 1885 did Taiwan become a province with a sparse population of 3 Million"

Oh, you are right. The previous owners were the dutch and the first church was protestant. Changed.
>but if france releases them, shouldn't they be afro antillean?
The dutch and the danish also use afro caribbean. I suppose you are right, but since release is only done with with normal in game mechanics, it gets a little more complicated to determine when they should be or not. Maybe if they are a french puppet they change it. Could be done with an event that fires after they are released.

HIP is a mememod but it makes the game a bit bigger and more diverse in terms of actual things to do, CKplus is similar but not as much and not in the same way. Fewer memes in CKplus.
I'm currently playing a game as Mzab (North African theocracy). I'm planning on taking as much land from my heretic neighbours and then either try to become one of the dominant powers in the Mediterranean or just fuck off to the interior of Africa.

It shouldn't, they have one province they love to colonize and keep.

I know. I did a rebalance a few versions ago before reverting to the NNM state back again. One of the problems with it was that the OT ended up always colonizing Africa. Too much. Until I can come up with a solution to stop colonizing being too easy that doesn't involve the AI releasing every nation in Africa to free up colonial points.

How to get rid of India in CK2? The goal is to get the game to speed up some and I really don't give a shit about India, or Timbuktu or the Steppes. I miss the original map. Trying to gs on a Microsoft Surface 3 and it is suffering.
I suppose I should just go back to EU3.
Disappointed with HPM? Don't worry lads, I've got you covered. Legacy of Slovenia is constantly being updated, with more and more features being smoothed out every day. Currently, tweaking North America is the focus, but the other continents are being worked on as well. And, unlike certain other mods, LoS is always open to input.
A beta release will be coming soon, I'll probably have something in a decently playable state by the middle of the month.

The wiki page seems to say "Oh yeah you can do whatever you want with feudal vassals, your nomad clans don't give a shit" but it seems like I can't just revoke all the feudal titles and burn everything to the ground for more pastureland.

Ugh, I wish HPM would fix the provinces in FYROM. Not only are they ugly as fuck, but they don't allow claims to be pressed.
It should be split into Northwestern Tetovo (Albanian claim), Ohrid-Skopje (majority of the country, Bulgarian/Serbian), Bitola/Pelagonia (Bulgarian/Serbian claim, Pavlos tier Greek claim, but it would be the best option if you add a new province).
At least rearrange the POPs and redraw the provinces so Albania can claim the northwest instead of half the country.

I think it's a problem with the way NNM did this stuff. It adds +3 fort level if they use a decision. I need to take a look.
>Also, the German Empire had cores on Aarlen (Wallonia). Is that normal? Never seen that before, but I don't play grossgermaniums.
It shouldn't be. One anon mentioned it, and I know the problem now. They are inherting the core from Luxembourg.

Canada was colonized by England.
California, Alaska, and the independent Lousiana were all colonized by Portugal.
USA and Haiti were colonized by me, as Slovenia. Originally, I gave them Slovene names, but EU4 decided to just throw those and and use new names when they became independent
Mexico was colonized by Spain. ( They also had a rather large colony in the east coast, but I conquered it in a series of wars.)
As you probably can tell by the screenshot I posted earlier, for the conversion, rather than leaving this mess of colonial nations, I just consolidated every nation's colonies into one state., assuming they shared borders

They get Manchuria after they lose outer manchuria, but they shouldn't try to change the name (to port arthur). They are actually excluded from being able to change the name (unless it's back to Lushun), the only thing I can think is it being returned in "our lands returned" event after Russia changed the name.
I will see why they can't change the name to Lushun and why they are getting it back.
>>121212778
There are a few options. If you want to play as one of the Boer republics, play as the UK for a bit and the events that pop up the republics will let you change to any of them.

Can you please for the love of all that is holy fix the American civil war? Nine times out of ten it starts in the '50s, the CSA always start with something stupid like 4 brigades, the US whoops them before they have time to whine to momma.
Also, is there anything in your mod about sending blacks to Africa? The way I would have it is there should be a 75% Lincoln's assassination succeeds and a 25% chance it fails, if it fails the US should send the blacks back to Africa after the ACW as that's what he wanted to do during reconstruction.
Also, the CSA should either have slavery or be deporting blacks, there's no scenario where blacks could live as free men in the CSA, even with segregation laws.
Speaking of segregation laws, you should add segregation by province in places like colonial Africa, specifically South Africa, provinces where push for non-accepted cultures is strong,it should be optional like the cores events, allowing you to choose it for certain states but not others, e.g: Cape town and Transvaal but not the rest of SA.

I don't play EU4 because it's for faggots, what does BDSM do in terms of Boer republics?
>>121213823
I would assume so, I wasn't really paying attention to Africa at all during the EU4 playthrough. I know that at the end of EU4, they were at war with England, and were succesfully invading English south africa, but they ran out of time. There were also several provinces of Portuguese and Spanish culture in addition to Boer, so I assume that they kicked the Spanish out entirely, and messed up the Portuguese quite bad. I haven't gotten around to fleshing out Africa yet, I've mainly focused on the Americas and Europe, so I'll make sure they're interesting to play as eventually.
Why does Austria not have cores on all of her non-Hungarian provinces in HPM, despite the fact that Hungary has cores on plenty of provinces with no Hungarian population.
>>121214305
t. romanian
>>121214305
Because Hungary considers them integral parts of their nation but Austria doesn't consider shitty Slav territory an integral part of theirs.
It's the same reason Ireland doesn't have a core on Boston.
>>121214131
>>121213823
Yeah, now that I look at it, Natalia's provinces also have cores for "Orange Free State" and "Swellandum"
>>121214093
It adds boer culture through events, and through an event chain if the nation which owns SA makes poor decisions the Boer Republics will eventually declare independence. They will have cores over all of SA and the ability to form SA if they annex all of it.
>>121213590
>Can you please for the love of all that is holy fix the American civil war? Nine times out of ten it starts in the '50s, the CSA always start with something stupid like 4 brigades, the US whoops them before they have time to whine to momma.
I will re-do the ACW to end the event spam at some point, I just didn't plan on how I will get around that.

Not yet, it's not as simple as just kicking them out. Forced deportation, across the ocean especially, is something that not always will be successful.
>Also, the CSA should either have slavery or be deporting blacks, there's no scenario where blacks could live as free men in the CSA, even with segregation laws.
Can't really comment on that, since I don't know much about the CSA.
>Speaking of segregation laws, you should add segregation by province in places like colonial Africa, specifically South Africa, provinces where push for non-accepted cultures is strong,it should be optional like the cores events, allowing you to choose it for certain states but not others, e.g: Cape town and Transvaal but not the rest of SA.
Can't do that because it would segregate all non accepted cultures (like Poles) that migrate there.
>>121214305

>>121214798

In the meantime can you buff the CSA? They get beat within a year almost 100% of the time, IRL they lasted 4 years with no outside intervention.
>Forced deportation, across the ocean especially, is something that not always will be successful.
Forced transportation across the ocean was successful, and that was 200 years prior, the ships are vastly superior in 1870.
>Can't do that because it would segregate all non accepted cultures (like Poles) that migrate there.
Eh, that's not necessarily a bad thing, in SA first class was Afrikaners and British descendants, then the "second class" were Asians and Whites who couldn't speak English or Afrikaner, then third class were blacks.
is HIP or even vanilla for that matter hard wired to trigger a crusade on 1097?
>>121215525
>They get beat within a year almost 100% of the time
That's because it is vicky, bigger number=winner. Maybe USA could be given a ton of war exhaustion or both sides some kind of flag like the bad_badboy one relating to being fractured, but in the end the North is going to have more troops and a single decisive battle is going to win the war.
>>121215525
>In the meantime can you buff the CSA? They get beat within a year almost 100% of the time, IRL they lasted 4 years with no outside intervention.
They got a lot of buffs, from NNM and me. V2 doesn't model crusades very well. Even after I'm done I can't guarantee it will get nowhere near real life.
And I've seen them win all by themselves, once.
>Forced transportation across the ocean was successful, and that was 200 years prior, the ships are vastly superior in 1870.
Slavery isn't the same thing as the deportation of millions of people in a short time span, especially since they are more westernized and technologically advanced than the ones that were brought as slaves.
>Eh, that's not necessarily a bad thing, in SA first class was Afrikaners and British descendants, then the "second class" were Asians and Whites who couldn't speak English or Afrikaner, then third class were blacks.
It's awful, especially for performance. This means they would treat the dutch the same way they treat the niggers.

Wouldn't make sense either, they hated the british. Doesn't make much sense for them to have these as accepted either.
Again, it doesn't make sense for them to discriminate poles, germans or french the same way they did with the natives. And the performance hit for the lack of assimilation would also not be worth.

>Flems, maybe, but its already a huge stretch. Walloons, french, germans? never
But a huge number of South Africans were French Huguenots or German Protestants.
>>121216859
Yes, they adopted the technology, culture and language of the society they lived in. At least a good part of the ones that were in a for time already did. They could use guns and had their thoughts about liberty and democracy. It's not the same thing as shipping someone abducted from a village in the middle of central africa by a merchant and sold to a white slaver ship that just woke in a deck with 400 other slaves that don't even speak their language.

I'm another person who thinks the Greek colour is too similar to the Turkish colour, and seen as this many people have an issue it's clearly not a colour blind Mafia out to ruse you, it needs changing.
Also, consider changing it to the colour of Greece the nation.
Country/nationality colours
French = French blue
German (north/south) = German brown
Russian = Russian green
Italian (north/south) = Italian Green
Spanish = Spanish yellow
Greek = some random purple colour that has nothing to do with anything
Just change it to the Greek national colour, it doesn't conflict with anything and is easily identifiable.
>>121217430

That may be true, but the boers who had lived in South Africa for centuries aren't just going to keel over and be best friends with the British just because they're asserting control over the land. That would only make the Boers hate them more.
>>121219109
It doesn't. Being able to do something doesn't imply you have that, especially something as simple as stabbing someone or pointing a gun. Just because someone knows how to stab someone doesn't imply they own a knife or ever tried to stab someone.
>>121218772
>Yup, believe it or not, they had 5 fingers just like you can could pull triggers as well as point guns.
You can point the Europoors from 5 miles out.
You can't just point a gun and pull a trigger and everyone you dislike dies, it takes substantial training to use and reload even modern guns let alone 19th century guns, in this scenario them knowing how to use small arms without killing a themselves wouldn't mean shit, the US could and would put down any uprising.
I don't see your logic here to be honest.

>>121218687
>On 8 October 1912, during the First Balkan War, Lemnos became part of Greece. The Greek navy under Rear Admiral Pavlos Kountouriotis took it over without any casualties from the occupying Turkish Ottoman garrison, who were returned to Anatolia. Peter Charanis, born on the island in 1908 and later a professor of Byzantine history at Rutgers University recounts when the island was occupied and Greek soldiers were sent to the villages and stationed themselves in the public squares. Some of the children ran to see what Greek soldiers looked like. ‘‘What are you looking at?’’ one of them asked. ‘‘At Hellenes,’’ the children replied. ‘‘Are you not Hellenes yourselves?’’ a soldier retorted. ‘‘No, we are Romans." Thus was the most ancient national identity in all of history, preserved in isolation, finally absorbed and ended.[14]
I suggest color = {102 2 60} for Greek but it will clash with Albanian
>>121219293
Even if they know what a gun is, that doesn't make them 'westernized' or 'technologically advanced'. Hell, I'm sure most African kingdoms at least knew vaugely about rifles as well. American slaves aren't suddenly up-to-date about modern technology because they know what a gun is, and there sure as hell didn't know anything about how they operate outside of "pull the trigger to make a boom." I doubt they even knew what gunpowder was.

>>121219505
Exactly, everything this guy said is true. Plus, HPM, you seem to think that the Blacks would oppose re-immigration, which is very untrue. There were back-to-africa movements led by Blacks themselves well into the 20th century, and in the mid-1800s when resentment toward Blacks is at an all-time high, they would only have more of an incentive to return to Africa.

>You can't just point a gun and pull a trigger and everyone you dislike dies, it takes substantial training to use and reload even modern guns let alone 19th century guns, in this scenario them knowing how to use small arms without killing a themselves wouldn't mean shit, the US could and would put down any uprising.
I'm not saying they were marksmen. I'm saying they could use guns and had the possibility of getting them in a revolt. As well as the free men, some that planned slave rebellions with that.
The logic is that slowly shipping primitive people over the atlantic is not the same thing as shipping these people back. Your implication that I'm saying they were college educated or marksmen is just a strawman.
And the whole point of guns is not having to train someone for a long period of time to operate. Modern rifles will need some training, but 19th century muskets or even better, pistols. won't.

They were inserted in the culture they lived in. That's the point and it's the stuff that allowed the Dred Scott v. Sandford case to happen. They use their clothes, speak their language, use their machinery and technology. Some shared the american ideals. Mass deportation isn't the same thing as slavery but just returning them now.
>>121219983
Doesn't explain why Liberia failed in that regard. Or why a lot didn't come back.
In any case, I will do it. I've mentioned it several times in the past. It just won't be a "Lincoln didn't die, everyone pack up and go back to africa". It's more complicated to move people to a strange continent they don't connect with anymore, or to decide what pops want or not, when they resist and the effects of resistance.

I'm pretty sure the point HPM's trying to make isn't that blacks would organize, fight and win a war to stay in america. Just that they'd be familiar enough with american society to express some kind of resistance, which would just make the whole thing even more expensive. The whole initiative in the first place without much to show for any taxpayers who didn't live in a community with a large amount of black in the first place (which would be quite a few, particularly among the rich and powerful).

You're missing the point, literally anybody can fire a gun but how many can aim one? This is why "irregulars" are so much shitter than combat trained soldiers because to actually aim and reload quickly on a battlefield takes tremendous skill, do you think army training is just for lulz? Guns aren't a magic wand you point and shoot with, there's a reason people are trained to shoot.
>The logic is that slowly shipping primitive people over the atlantic is not the same thing as shipping these people back. Your implication that I'm saying they were college educated or marksmen is just a strawman.
You yourself said they had "adopted the technology, culture and language of the society they lived in" I'm not strawmanning, this is literally what you said. The truth is they weren't allowed to adopt the technology, they certainly weren't allowed to adopt the culture and slaves speaking? That's a whipping.
>And the whole point of guns is not having to train someone for a long period of time to operate. Modern rifles will need some training, but 19th century muskets or even better, pistols. won't.
19th century muskets were even worse! With modern day firearms you don't have to account for wind direction or minute plus reloading times, back then being able to quickly reload and aim accurately was not just a skill it was a neccesity, I'll bet if I gave you a 19th century musket you could hit a barn door 30 feet away, they required training to use.

I think you had had a good point, but explained it with ineffective reasoning. Taking slaves from central Africa was easier when they were from more primitive cultures, but more than that the cost was taken up by a variety of private companies and governments. Transporting an even larger population back across the Atlantic, and having the cost being burdened by just the US gov't and a handful of high-minded philanthropists right after a war would be pretty ridiculous.
Not to mention the bureaucratic costs of hiring paper-shufflers to look through census data and registries, moving troops around to enforce the program, and creating more agencies to investigate the inevitable corruption within the agencies you've just made. The idea's not impossible, it'd just be retardedly expensive, take decades to have any noticeable effect, and would piss off any and all taxpayers who lived in communities that didn't have many or any blacks in the first place.

I'm not saying they would form a modern army, that they all walked dressed as plantation owners or that they were in the avantgarde of the american culture.
>>121221457
> Guns aren't a magic wand you point and shoot with, there's a reason people are trained to shoot.
That's irrelevant to the point. I'm not saying they would be good marksmen able to match a soldier. The whole point is that they could use guns. That's all, and that's more than his first ancestor in the USA could do before getting there.
>The truth is they weren't allowed to adopt the technology, they certainly weren't allowed to adopt the culture and slaves speaking? That's a whipping.
Saying they adopted one's customs doesn't put them in college. That's where the strawman comes from.
And yes, they were inserted in american society. You can't segregate from that. Otherwise, Dredd v. Scott or even black drivers wouldn't exist. In any case, this isn't the point. You are allowed to believe that slaves lived in a completely separate society. The point is, for me, a slave just arrived from africa is not the same thing as one of the english speaking slaves (or former slaves) of the 19th century.
>With modern day firearms you don't have to account for wind direction or minute plus reloading times, back then being able to quickly reload and aim accurately was not just a skill it was a neccesity, I'll bet if I gave you a 19th century musket you could hit a barn door 30 feet away, they required training to use.
As I said first, aim or ability to hit the target is beyond the point. You are missing it entirely.
>>121221876
That has no relations to the subject at hand at all.

Excluding a very rare rebellion, at no point would a slave ever have access to a gun. If a slave in the 19th century would be able to use a gun, then so could his ancestors, since neither of them would ever have gotten their hands on one before.

>>121222831
I doubt they had access to a lot of weapons, even knives, but it wouldn't stop them from killing. The point is, they could put up resistance and using guns is easy. One or a few probably saw one and instinctively knew how to use, and the others could learn just by watching a gun fire.
I'm not saying they would do a race war and conquer the USA or carve out a state. I'm rejecting the notion that it's as simple as loading them in boats (which would be hard on itself). So, when I get around doing something like the back-to-africa proposals, there's lots of stuff to think in regards on how and when it could fail or succeed and the consequences, as well as the degree of success or failure.
But I absolutely reject the original proposition of having everyone go back to africa just because lincoln is alive.

True I focused a lot on the economics of the idea, but I also tried to get across the it'd be too complicated and clucterfuck-y to be able to have worked consistently like I believe that you're trying to say.
Plus no matter how successful such a program would've been, there's simply no way anyone could've deported every single black in the country. There was simply too much space to hide out in and not enough infrastructure (administrative or otherwise) to hunt down every last person who matched the given definition "African to be deported".

I've got an interesting little story for you folks.
As the Iceling dynasty from Mercia, I've managed to form several empires, with Britannia being the primary. I'm working toward forming the Holy Roman Empire. To that end I need to conquer or destroy the French and Italians. Prior to these screenshots I had just concluded two wars against the French. The first was to depose the Emperor of Francia and install a 14 year old member of my dynasty on the throne. The second I declared within a month of concluding the first, pressing a claim of one of my vassals against the Kingdom of Middle Francia. This was successful, placing a large swath of French territory under my control. This is where things really get interesting.
>>121241332
Within three months, the old King of Middle Francia deposed the new one that I had installed, but is now my vassal rather than a French one, as you can see in the screenshot. The other notable development is there are now two simultaneous civil wars for the throne of the Empire of Francia against the now 16 year old member of my dynasty. The larger revolt in the south is led by the only remaining king in the empire, Adalbert the Magnanimous, King of Aquitaine while the smaller force in the north is led by the Duke of Flanders. With the Emperor's forces being heavily depleted from the war against my own empire, the king of Aquitaine can actually field an army three times the size of the Emperor's. I may find myself declaring war on the King of Aquitaine just to smash some of his forces in order to give the Emperor a fighting chance.
That's the story of the Icelings dicking over the French. Any story dicking over the French is a good one in my book.

And the French Emperor recently joined my revolting vassal (random duke who's title I tried to revoke in England) in a war against me, so as soon as I finish subjugating this revolt and declare war on the revolting French, I'll be fighting 4 different French factions that are all fighting each other that one of my vassals is also fighting.

Germany fought against England and France (and Poland, the Baltics, Yugoslavia, Denmark, Norway) in the 1939 to 1941 period. By the end of it the UK was the only unoccupied country BUT the UK was isolated and useless as anything other than potential site for launching American invasion by 1941.
By 1941 Hitler launches Barbarossa and fights against USSR 1 on 1 from June 1941 to June 1944 when the Americans invade via D Day. Important, right? Not really, by June 44 Germans were in constant retreat and had basically lost all chance of winning and their front was almost collapsing as it is. Americans gave the final push and the eastern front did collapse in fall of 44 and Germans went into general retreat but the front would have collapsed regardless of Americans.
So yes the USSR beat Germany and the Slavs beat Germans.

>Hitler later blamed the failure of his invasion of the Soviet Union, which had to be delayed, on Mussolini's failed conquest of Greece.[19] This explanation for Germany's calamitous defeat by the Soviet Union has been refuted by the majority of historians, who have accused Hitler of trying to deflect blame for his country's defeat from himself to his ally, Italy.[20] It nevertheless had serious consequences for the Axis war effort in the North African theatre. Von Rintelen emphasizes, from the German point of view, the strategic mistake of not taking Malta.[21]

>>121246696
>According to film-maker and friend of Adolf Hitler Leni Riefenstahl, Hitler said that "if the Italians hadn't attacked Greece and needed our help, the war would have taken a different course. We could have anticipated the Russian cold by weeks and conquered Leningrad and Moscow. There would have been no Stalingrad".[198] Despite his reservations, Brooke seems also to have conceded that the Balkan Campaign delayed the offensive against the Soviet Union.[184]
How well does EU4 save converter work? I remember the first time it came out it was really buggy, borders looked like shit and a few countries had ? as their name.
>>121246696
>the majority of historians
they just don't want to admit that a ww2 won by germany could ever happen. they also want to give credit to their countries (uk and us) instead of the true heros (ussr and greece)
>>121247230
Germany had no chance of winning outside of mary sue levels of fanfic happening in their favor. Which quite a bit did happen. Ya sure maybe they take moscow and actually bother to take leningrad but they had no real chance to win. They would had to have made it to the urals before the rain.
>>121247127
It works decently well, but you're going to have noculture pops all over the place (mainly in colonies) because it doesn't add new cultures, it only uses what Vic2 has. It will condense some pop types, all the various German and Italian cultures for example, but colonies will need some work. Other than that, though, it converts pops quite well based on the development of the provinces, and even addd in seperate culture pops based on what nations have cores in a given province. Also, it doesn't add any industry whatsoever, so you'll probably want to add some factories by hand. Everything looks fine, though, whatever visual bugs you talked about are fixed.
>>121247362
>mainly in colonies
That's probably because you used BDSM, which adds colonial cultures.
>>121247447
Huh, yeah, I guess that is why. That being said, it does a great job of converting all the extra BDSM nations, I've had no issues in that regard.
>>121247317
Once Moscow, Volgograd and Archangelsk were taken, Germany wouldn't even have to bother making peace with them. USSR would have lost 30% of their population, 50% of their Russian population and more than 50% of their industry and resources. Even by transporting the remaining industry to Siberia, they would be practically a useless Steppe nation. So I don't undestand why some people think that Germany would have to reach Vladivostock to win. Once they reached Moscow, Stalin would surely capitulate.

Im tired as shit and dont have time to write everything and bring up sources so heres a lazy version. German imports still wouldnt be enough to fund its war machine at 41 levels. SU still would had gotten most of its heavy industry out. Hitler still would have to do with partisan activity. Stalin still would had burned everything denieing hitler access to crucial resources. Im not saying hitler couldnt win just he got so many lucky breaks IRL that him winning would be so horribly implossible I cant even stress it. And again im tired ive been up ill night if you want to discuss it more ask someone else on here or go on that new fangled shitpostin board.

Its the usual sort of quality we've come to expect from Paradox then?
>>121248747
Yeah desu. But so long as you haven't been using mods, it shouldn't be an issue, according to that other anon. However, your borders or going to be shit no matter what, due to fact that Vic2 and EU4 don't have the same provinces. Also, thanks to Wiz's "every nation must be playable in a meaningful way" bullshit, only a handful of nations will be uncivs, most will be westernized.

I think I am going to play a HPM game with all poor strata set to recruitable. I just did a quick test and there doesn't appear to be any problems with it and the AI will build armies of farmers too.
>>121252217
Thanks man, I was terrified my save was broken.
I want to release Brittany from France, or should I just leave them alone? I could take some colonies in Mocambique or French islands in the Carribean / Australasia.
Ay le mao
>>121252453
Thats what mobilization is for you twit.
>>121252631
If you are going full Weltpolitik, then concentrate on getting your place in the sun from France. Let them keep Brittany, but take away their juiciest colonies, provided you can defend them, like the other anon said. Build yourself a decent fleet, you have quite enough money to do so.
>>121252631
>release Brittany
Don't release anything from France, for fucks sake. Just take their colonies.
>>121252631
Leave France as is, it always looks like shit.Maybe occupy them for 10 years

Germany invaded Russia in summer.
>>121246357
I am
I was playing as some custom dude as the topal sea with the tall and agile traits as my gene traits, others were pretty generic, i married some dunmer girl and managed to impregnate her 3 times in the 15 years we were married, some people were making rumors about me as a vampire and i went insane because of it, ended up injuring myself multiple times and becoming infirm, i then became ill and my wound got infected and then i died at 31
My oldest daughter now sister is matrilinealy betrothed to the 3rd son of the king of morrowind, i don't plan on assassinating the other brothers
My goal is to make a comfy mixed nibenean/darkelf kingdom with a bunch of sexy argonian slaves ruled by magic users, my plans for invasion are the black area, blue is the possible invasion areas, i will then make a bunch of tributary argonian states, my current capital is darkfathom hollow, i may keep it that way and put a focus on intrigue alongside my magic because of what the place was in oblivion

I'm super late, but is it not possible to give the US's unique election events that only effect Democrats and Republicans?
Obviously you can't do anything about social issues, but the events that change 10% to a different party loyalty can be changed, right?
Lads I need help.
Playing as Mexico, managed to take back all my cores from the US and force them to release the Cherokee, New England, and Columbia.
They still have a way bigger population than mine, and their army buildup is scaring me. They currently have ~80 brigades to my 55, and I'm pretty sure they'll have 200+ to my ~130 when we both mobilize. I know they're going to try to take back their cores soon. Do the US get specific immigration events or something?
