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/?

Does that mean they have 9 spies fighting against my own?

How do I remove enemy spies so I can raise support for their Nazi party better?

Also, as you may see by the pie chart on the right, support is just all over the place for all the parties. Is it worth it to try and coup India in this case or should I just stick to using leadership points on research?

The more you spread spies with multiple actions, the less effective they are, since you can have a max of 10 spies in a single country.

Do only counterespionage until you kill all their spies, then leave it at the minimum. As soon as they start getting more they'll be likely killed.

Get enough Covert Ops for a Coup, but don't do it early. Then stop investing in it and switch everything to Support our Party

For a decent chance at couping you need 40%+ party support and shitty national unity on the target. Even then it's still mad difficult to pull. Just savescum.

Also use influence to bring them to your side of the triangle, and max diplomatic relations by trading a lot (just do a shitton of small/negligible trades like sell 1 energy)

As a fascist New Persian Empire I started working on Colombia, Venezuela, Peru and Panama. About 100 divisions between them by 1943.

Panama I didn't get for soldiers though. I did it for military access for the other 3 to the Panama Canal, which they piled a hundred thousand soldiers into. America couldn't send a single ship through the canal from 1941 to 1954 when my war ended.

In Europe, the Republicans won so Germany invaded. Then Germany was wasting 70 fucking divisions watching the Portuguese border so I coup'ed Portugal to Fascism too

Get independence
Unite scandinavia while taking innovative, quality, economic, and offensive ideas
Enjoy your spess muhrines with policies and national bonuses.

Sweden used to be easy mode because you could block straits with navies. It was literally horde money for the first few years, then build a fuckload of galleys, block the strait to sjealland, fuck norway and denmark, and take all your cores/claims in the deal.

Now because armies can ignore blockades if they control both sides of the strait it requires more diplomacy. Ideally denmark fucks up in an early war and you can pounce while they're weak.

Don't even try to fight muscovy before you have space marines or at least the first couple ideas, you might win, but you'll take more losses than you should. If you can break away early enough you can stomp novgorod though.

this misses the point and deliberately exaggerates the argument

even if the percentage of refugees isn't exceptionally high, it is still enough to create a permanent presence within the host country that will grow stronger with time

Of course. This furthers nationalism and exclusion of non-ethnic Germans and as such should be banned and is evil.

Here, some fag broke off someones mini-flag from their car and left them a note saying how this causes nationalism and how the flag doesn't represent football or whatever but the German Identity (and of course implies that this is an inherently bad thing).

There's a more-or-less famous picture of a now important green politician (Claudia Roth) demonstrating in back in the GDR against the reunification and Germany as a whole ("Nie wieder Deutschland" - "Germany never again"), there's lots of short clips of higher up politicians from basically anywhere left of the CDU (Merkel) saying how Germany is shit and should be dissolved or something to that effect.

They need to integrate and stop causing problems for the societies they flood into.
Give them a free year to learn German and find jobs and shit. After that they're on their fucking own.
They need to be punished when they cause problems, they need to be shoved out of the country if they can't behave themselves.
If they can be civilized then no issue.

And refugees are not the same as the nigger migrants from N.Africa. Refugees can stay because they fuck off back to their own country when the war is over.

I may have chained 5 wars together after getting the chinese warlord focus unlocked, and the war with the guangxi clique may have been declared third but lasted a year and a half of fighting.

and the reason it lasted so long maybe possibly was because half or more of my army had no weapons.

Fuck this stupid shit.
Who the fuck thought it was a good idea?

The obvious improvement would be if they let you choose the rewards your allies get, but then stupid shit happens like somehow Turkey got 88% of the war involvement out of nothing, despite being the last to join, and losing less than a hundred thousand men.

Then they do stupid shit in their peace conferences like liberate Poland and the Baltics and take unconnected Siberian territory.

The whole series is p.fun and are strongest in the multiplayer but they also have good singleplayer campaigns, althought with a bit cheaty A.I that knows exactly where your all units are. It's common in games but it really stands out in the wargame series because of how huge the maps are and when making a intrigate flanking manouveur with a mounted motorized infantry only to see a column of tanks in march formation coming to meet them on the same road five kilometers away.

The game allows a wide variety of strategic and tactical choises. No deck is completely useless and with TACTICAL GENIUS you can assfuck a player who's rolling an armored division.

I used to play both quite a bit

They were fun, but unbalanced as fuck and the devs never unfucked it.

And the naval war stuff was absolute trash. Shouldn't have even bothered - game would've been better off if they worked on more important gameplay mechanics, like making infantry into actual infantry instead of vehicles that could die multiple times and move inside buildings.

yea but you can't just jump into HoI3 and wreck as Germany in the first playthrough or two.

...or can you?
>>
So, interested in HoI 4 but it looks pretty odd for someone who only tried HoI2/DH and little 3.

I'd like the less micromanagement, but every time I watch someone's let's play his units can win 1 vs 3-4 battles easily in every province. Is the whole game just that - your soldiers are superhuman and worth 1-5 soldiers of enemy army?
>>
>>147251896
Yeah. I think the lack of new content killed it.. Mods kept it fresh for a while but it wasn't enough.
And the visuals are pretty amazing even these days.

1m dead Germans, 1m dead Hungarians, and 1m dead Romanians, Bulgarians, Italians and Frenchmen, to ~80k dead Turks.

And yet 77% of the warscore was Turkey's somehow.

The AI will build divisions with 50 soft attack while you build slightly more expensive divisions that get 5k soft attack (which is effectively more like 20k soft attack since attacks in excess of defense are 4x as powerful).

>>147251721
Wouldn't believe how many people I've argued this over with.

I played NATO almost exclusively, swapped over to PACT to try out some helicopter fast-attack ideas I had and the difference in capabilities is night-and-day.

The most egregious issue was Eurocorps - basically took the best parts of France and Germany and mashed them together into one perfect deck that had no holes anywhere. In particular Eurocorps had shittons of recon units for absolutely no reason, on top of the completely broken AMX 13/90's and Ceasar.

And lots of little bullshit things relating to french units being min-maxed; all their "trade-offs" on their units were things that didn't matter.

You'd figure a game about the cold war would focus on USA vs USSR, but no - the US was treated almost like a backwater second rate country with limited options and capabilities compared to eurocorps. You'd almost think it was the French military leading the war against the USSR and not America.
>>
>>147252689
The whole game is just ridiculously imbalanced such that players can literally instagib AI divisions. If the AI built divisions like players then wars would be 1-week holocausts of a million soldiers per day on both sides.
>>
>>147252503
Turkey mutilated the core of Russia and Siberia before I could blink, and for some retarded reason, because Turkey had so much more "points" than me, I could only spend like 25% of the "points" the game had allocated me.

Russia, Finland, and the Baltics are all Turkish "puppets".

>>147252645
What are you talking about?
The Soviet airforce was destroyed pretty early, and Turkey did not suffer anything we didn't.
>>
>>147252220

First playthrough? Problably not, but that's because HoI 3 has a clusterfuck of a UI to take in, and filled with noob-traps. HoI4 is a lot more friendly, and has been streamlined to become much easier to read and understand.

in my experience what happens every time is that Poland forms the Intermarium, and so gets taken over by the Germans without dragging the Allies in. Then the Germans declare on the Soviets and eventually conquer them, at which point the game ends because the Allies sit there with their thumb up their ass until 1948.
>>
>>147252875
This is why I usually solo the USSR as Germany, so I can completely annex them. It's trivial anyway.

If I want Turkey to divert some of the USSR's troops to the Caucasus, I'll call them into the war only after I'm sure that I can cut off Turkey's land grabs/advancements in that region.

You don't need to use it. Just draw a fake line to anywhere and your units accumulate planning mana when they aren't attacking.
>>
>>147253931
AFAIK all you lose is the bonus from planning, but if people are to be believed, just drawing a plan gives you the bonus (I haven't confirmed this, though it would be extremely useful when you're trying to do pincer movements and/or want to use multiple generals to get traits and experience).

The grand tourney of Jerusalem concludes on the 1st of July, 1193. Baudouin invites the victorious participants to await a great commencement the following day, and surely enough, the announcement astounds all the assembled knights: Baudouin, in the name of the sign provided by Jesus Christ, announces a campaign against the Ayyubid Sultanate to seize Mount Sinai, "so that holy place where God himself handed His Commandments to Moses might be returned to the hands of Christ."

In spite of their surprise at the sudden declaration, the assembled knights are quick to pledge their loyalty in the venture, as are all of Baudouin's vassals. Undoubtedly, this has much to do with the death of Salah ad-Din in 1190; his successor, Al-Afdal, while by no means an incompetent leader, is burdened by wars on two fronts, the legacy of his father's incredible indemnity payments to the Kingdom of Jerusalem, and the hatred of his brothers ruling in Syria, who all wish to depose or assassinate him to seize the Sultanate for themselves. Unlike what occurred in 1187, Baudouin's vassals are now supremely confident that a defeat can be inflicted upon the Ayyubid Sultan, especially with the aide of the Knights Templar and Hospitalier.

Disaster! Barely over a month after the war against Al-Afdal is announced, Raimond de Toulouse breathes his last, and in so doing the childless lord bequeaths all of his land to his nearest relative, Raimond VI of Toulouse, vassal to the King of France! All of his territories in Jerusalem are now technically sworn to France via the Duc de Tolosa, which serves only to drastically weaken the Kingdom at a critical moment.

"This is truly a grievous loss," Baudouin V mourned, "yet we cannot permit it to interfere with God's own work. We will defeat the Musselman with or without the Comte de Tripoli."

Foolishly, the Musselman host decided to recreate the Battle of Monreal from their own offensive years prior, and paid for it in spades. It was another crushing victory for the entrenched Christian defenders, followed only by another crushing win for the Catholics in the semidesert of Syria.

As before, Baron d'Arsour pursues the Mahommedan host in anticipation of their swift surrender, "for their forces are demoralized and they lack the will to face the proud hosts of Christ," d'Arsour wrote in one of his letters to Baudouin V.

Victory! After seizing control of El-Arish, the Ayyubid Sultan was forced to concede the loss of the Sinai peninsula to King Baudouin V. In celebration, Baudouin V dipped deep into his treasury--spending the vast majority of the remainder, in fact--to construct a temple complex at the foot of Mount Sinai. To the chagrin of his mother, who desired an expansion of her own territory, Baudouin has decided to retain control of the entirety of the peninsula for himself.

In a meeting shortly after with Duc Boudewijn, Duc Honfroy II of Oultrejourdain (his mother having died just after the war with Al-Afdal began), and the newly-minted Comte Gauthier of Tripoli (Baudouin raised him as a counter-Comte of Tripoli in contest to Duc Raimond VI's claim), Baudouin V hesitantly raised comments on the situation with France. "I do not wish to challenge a fellow Christian King," Baudouin told them, "yet I suspect that such may be inevitable. Without the territories which now belong to the Duc de Toulon we are quite vulnerable to the Musselman, who will undoubtedly seek vengeance upon us. Moreover, the Duc de Toulon, or the French King himself, may yet try to expand their lands at our expense. I do not wish it, as I say, yet it might be inevitable.

"If it is, though, it will not be this day. Other matters must yet be attended to first. I call upon you only to be ready, for the time being."

A few short months following the defeat of Al-Afdal, Baudouin's old friend Joscelin, the Comte de Acre, was able to enforce his claim on the Comte de Edessa to the north. His victory--although important in that it helps to secure Jerusalem's northern boundaries and that it will help counterbalance the loss of territories to France--is nevertheless not so impactful as Baudouin V might have wished. Joscelin does not control any of these territories directly, but rather through a Sunni intermediary: none other than the uncle of the current Ayyubid Sultan, al-Adil Sayf al-Din Ayyubid (although he is referred to as "Aladil" to his Christian overlords).

The presence of any Muslim in his realm would infuriate Baudouin, but that it is an Ayyubid, and one closely related to Salah ad-Din at that, is even worse. "Find an excuse to remove this man," Baudouin ordered Joscelin, "or see to it that he converts--truly converts, that is. I will suffer no Muslim ruler, not even as an intermediary, in the Kingdom of God."

This is the last one for tonight; since I started so late, I mainly just wanted to get through the war. I might be able to post some tomorrow, but if I do it'll probably be early and stop quickly. Monday I should be here as normal.

Sarkel did most of that. I blobbed into central Asia to increase my chances of kicking Muslims out of Baluchistan and the like.

2. Apparently mountains are OP

I boought it on impulse to be honest, and while it's fun in a casual sense it's very bothersome how broken it is.
To begin with, World War 2 is still raging and we're 2 days away from 1957.
Only Axis nations left? Japan and... Dominican whatever?

>US doesn't invade Japan, too dumb for that
>US can't invade an island that is right beside Cuba, too dumb for that

You know, like put them in their own category so only they show up in the nations list.

>>147283517
What's even worse is that if a civil war triggers the rebelling side gets a new generic tag and a generic focus tree, regardless if you are Germany, USA or Russia.

Paradox fucked up this time even more than on Stellaris.

HPM has that feature, but it's hard to enable you'll need to go into the game's folder and launch the uninstall executable yes haha funny meme xDDD seriously launch it. After that just go through the steps and then install HPM directly into the folder. Now when you launch the game through steam you'll have access the UI improvements HPM offers

no thats about it.
you could try uninstall.exe it's gotten some good reviews from here

What's wrong with EU3?
I think everything is pretty balanced.
Well... in a sense that any nation can become top dog after a while by becoming trade masters.
Still have to watch out for large armies. It doesn't mean shit if you have a 10k stack with the first guns versus 50k men at arms and Latin cavalry.
>>
>>147284937
CK2 and that's the only game you can do it tbqh

Someone refresh me.
In Victoria 2, is it worth it to use the people's reform desire to pass trade union acts even though that's not what they want? In order to get them to want social reform so I can get better schools and health care. Or is it just a quicker slide into unemployment subsidies and other drains on the economy wiht no benefit?

When was the last time you played it?
Since they cut down manpower to around 10% of original...last year i think? No announcement no nothing - like a big fuck you for playing it basically.

Here is manpower for Castille on start, does it look normal to you? Since obviously nation as big as that can only get 200 soldiers per month.
>>
>>147285965
Nah. To pass social reforms early on you'll need shitton of militancy (6+). Steer away from passing political reforms early on and wait for Liberal Revolution. Farm militancy, pass a few social reforms then please the masses once Lib Rev+Springtime of nations is over
>>
So if I have something like castle walls or a keep increasing my levy size, is that a flat bonus across the board that applies to all things, so like if I already have a keep for a +5% to levy size and I build a militia training ground, would I get 84 light infantry or only 80?
>>
>>147286194
Sounds good.
>>147286045
Eh? Does that do something other than being a factory that's guaranteed to make money? I can't imagine they were smart enough to implement something like placating the masses with booze.
>>147286164
I remember the one where you get less soldiers per month, but a larger pool. I think it worked out fine because once you get over 1k per month you're solid. 5k per month just let the AI pump out deathstacks, now you can actually drain their army without occupying them completely first.
>>
>>147286569
Well since ai has no idea how to use mercs it only made the game easier and more tedious.
Main reason they did it was because EUIV crowd and MP balancing (so you can threaten each other).
And seriously it makes no sense that gigantic nations get so few soldiers on a yearly basis.
>>
>>147286164
They doubled 100% manpower recovery rate from 5 years to 10 years in the 5.2 beta patch IIRC. This was to prevent too frequent wars and grinding down millions of soldiers in endless wars lategame. It puts a bigger focus on managing attrition and your stacks more properly, though I'll agree that it's fucking annoying at times, especially as small nations.
>>
Did they finally make the AI less retarded in the Red Ball update?
>>
>>147286842
haha no
>>
>>147286820
>lategame
True on that, after you start piling up province upgrades manpower stops being a problem.
>>147286842
>Paradox
>having any idea how to fix ai
>>
>>147286820
I kinda like it.
As >Byzantium I liked having to resize my armies once I had to fight in the deserts and mountains. I can see how people would find that tedious since it would be much easier to take 20k azab infantry and run every army in the world over in the early game but it at least made byzablobing a little more interesting for me. I guess I find fun in the timing aspect of it all. Waiting for manpower can suck, but if you're good, you can time it up so you're still burning down infamy.
