Reminder that SteIIaris has its own general and discussion of the game doesn't go here. Thank you.

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.

How fares your empire, /gsg/?

This day in history, June 24th:
217 BC – The Romans, led by Gaius Flaminius, are ambushed and defeated by Hannibal at the Battle of Lake Trasimene.
1128 – Battle of São Mamede, near Guimarães: Forces led by Afonso I defeat forces led by his mother Teresa of León and her lover Fernando Pérez de Traba. After this battle, the future king calls himself "Prince of Portugal", the first step towards "official independence" that will be reached in 1139 after the Battle of Ourique.
1812 – Napoleonic Wars: Napoleon's Grande Armée crosses the Neman river beginning the invasion of Russia.

Don't ever accept the "western winds" modifier (the same one that removes your "isolation" modifier) and let the UK/Russia have whatever they want when they ask for it. The Taiping rebellion happens around 1850 so use the standard civil war preparation techniques to make it completely painless. Other than that you can pretty much sit on 5x speed until the late 1870s when you westernize.

>it's doable
It's only doable if you build a modern infantry military instead of just using irregulars, and at that point the 40-percentage-point RP increase (+20 from winds and remove -20 from isolation) is offset by the decrease in admin/education spending you're forced to take in order to fund your military, and the fact that half of your provinces will be getting occupied almost non-stop for the last 10-15 years of westernization which ruins their productivity. Plus, you have to spend decades microing army stacks, constantly on the edge of accidentally letting a province or fall under rebel control and then losing all your progress to the unstoppable reinforcement wave that inevitably comes once they get a few provinces.

If you were willing to save/load constantly in order to get favorable rebellions it would be the best way to go, for sure, but in that situation I'd definitely call it cheating.

Could someone help me with what National Ideas I should go for as Holland in EUIV?

I was thinking:

Normally I would skip Quality there and go straight to colonising, but now I don't think I can because of the corruption modifier.

Also, would Quality actually be the best military idea to take? I'm not sure.

>turn UK into absolute monarchy
>name changes into 'British Empire'

What is this shit? Monarch's powers increasing is no reason to change the country name. 'British Empire' always referred to the UK's colonial possessions, not the name of the country itself.

Same reason why Germany shouldn't change its name from German Empire or Russia from Russian Empire if it just changes the type of monarchy. The Germans were basically under a Constitutional Monarchy by the start of WW1 but their name stayed German Empire.

I managed to get some work done in the airplane. The event that gives the "mormon exodus" modifier will now be a decision instead of an event, you are only able to do it while Utah isn't a colony to avoid the modifier disappearing when it becomes a state.

I also stopped animist pops with less than 60% literacy supporting communism unless they are primary/accepted cultures.

I will try to get some work done in the next few days.

I already made fascist Papal State flag, which is pic related. It actually doesn't have to do with the Papacy itself, it's the war flag of the Roman Republic. A fascist dictatorship wouldn't be lead by the Pope, so I didn't want it to be Papal as much as Roman. HPM already added them in the latest version.

I'll still do it, but I thought I may let you know that what you want is, in a way, already in the game.
Yuan Shikai was Han, which would make the short-lived Empire of China (monarchy Beiyang China in game) kind of what you are looking for. Of course though, the flag is, like the Empire itself, perhaps too modern for what you are looking for, so I will try to do something a bit more traditionally Imperial.

There was a massive anti-German propaganda campaign leading up to the US involvement in WWI which completely destroyed the German culture of America (German was spoken by nearly as many people as Spanish iirc) and had people changing their German names in droves.

-berg is a pretty ordinary name in Germany, Scandinavia and Finland.

Because they reach the uterus entrance more easier than small dicks, resulting in bigger chances for the spermatozoons to fertilize the ovule. Hence why BBC nogs are so attractive to females.

He doesn't even say he has a wife and kids in that post

If he lost them, and the reason why he's posting that, is that his fucked up family left him scarred, not because of modding
People are born in broken families. That isn't mental illness and it can affect people differently
>>
>>146531495

>>
>>146531495
Your completely ignoring the fact that he's attention whoring as a 55 year old who basically ruined his life to create a mod for a game that is going to get replaced by a sequal in a year or two. Also the mod is shit it self.

>>146530846
>Mayaka became mtf tranny
Please elaborate.
>>
>>146531679
You are ignoring the fact that nothing supports those claims

> basically ruined his life to create a mod
There's nothing that supports that assertion in that post
He's talking about his fucked up family, brothers and sisters, not his wife or kids or even his life besides saying that for him it's like a soap opera, but that's related to his brothers and his sister

The only thing we could say about himself is that he is unemployed. That could have happened before he started modding, could have happened as a result of his fucked up family affecting him

You are literally making shit up to support your claim

Remove breakthrough divisions from your theather and let the AI handle it. Manually use said divisions to make breakthroughs and flanking.

For the bulk of your army ou should use 3 INF 1 ART and for breakthrough divisions 2 MOT (2 MEC on mid to late game) 1 ARM 1 T.T.ART

Changing your entire government is as simple as choosing an specific kind of minister and waiting.

the only thing i dont like about production is that units that require fuel don't require any more fuel. I guess the justification for that is you need to produce more for reinforcement, which you need access to oil to do.

i think having the decision to take a particular leaning at any point would be a good way to go about changing your government rather than getting political mana to do it. rebellions should be more common in this case and transitions shouldn't be easy, but they should be rewarding
