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, August 25th:

1543 – The first Europeans and firearms arrive in Japan.
1830 – The Belgian Revolution begins.
1939 – The United Kingdom and Poland form a military alliance in which the UK promises to defend Poland in case of invasion by a foreign power.

Ok I have a full proof plan to make /gsg/ great again

1. Shut down the discord group that raids the thread.

(Most of the non-modders on there are cancer by doing this you eliminate liquorlad and make liquor great again)

2. Join or create a new mp group led by popular modders who are moderate. Make sure a majority of /gsg/ is a part of it so it dosent turn into a steamgroup.(Moderate meaning not as extreme as R&I who harnesses and doxxes steamgroup members and not as radical as Cobrah who shits up threads with drama)

3. Ask Meneth to create an HPM suggestion thread on Reddit and hand over updated links of mods to him regularly so Reddit dosent have an excuse to go on the general

4. Known shitposters and steamgroup members are welcome into the mp after a formal apology. Also a proper vetting system analyzing users who have been in every steamgroup. So they can't fuck it up

5.liquor,willy,waggle,kaiser,grandi,alex,rob and steamgroup become word filters or result in a 2-3 day ban.

We are going to make /gsg/ great again folks!

>>152917969
It's not really that it's more likely to cause deformations that is the lie (cause you can see the logic in that), it's just that it's also just as likely to create a super child between two super parents. Which makes incest a pretty neutral thing in those terms.

>mfw Chinese predate god
Truly glorious

You're not some mutant animal that crawled out of a soup.
Man is made in the image of God.

All races/ethnicities can be traced back to Noah's 3 sons:

A. Four Sons of Ham:
1. Mizraim (Egypt)
2. Cush (Sudan, Ethiopia)
3. Put (Lybia)
4. Canaan (Hivites, Jebusites, Arvadites, Girgashites, Amorites, Arkites, Sinites, Hittites,
Sidonians, Perizzites, Zemarites)

B. Five Sons of Shem:
1. Elam (Arabia)
2. Asshur (Assyria)
3. Lud (Lydians)
4. Aram (Aramaic, Armenia, Mesopotamia, Syria)
5. Arphaxad (From which Abraham descended)

C. Japheth's Descendants (14 Nations came out of Japheth):
The immediate descendants of Japheth were seven in number, and are represented by the nations designated Gomer, Magog, Madai, Javan, Tubal, Mesech, and Tiras; or, roughly, the Armenians, Lydians, Medes, Greeks, Tibarenians, and Moschians, the last, Tiras, remaining still obscure. The sons of Gomer (Ashkenaz, Riphath and Togarmah) were all settled in the West Asian tract; while the sons of Javan (Elisah, Tarshish, Kittim and Dodanim or Rodanim) occupied the Mediterranean coast and the adjacent islands.

Seven Sons of Japheth
1. Javan (Greece, Romans, Romance -- French, Italians, Spanish, Portuguese)
2. Magog (Scythians, Slavs, Russians, Bulgarians, Bohemians, Poles, Slovaks, Croatians)
3. Madai (Indians & Iranic: Medes, Persians, Afghans, Kurds)
4. Tubal (South of Black Sea)
5. Tiras (Thracians, Teutons, Germans, Scandinavian, Anglo-Saxon, Jutes)
6. Meshech (Russia)
7. Gomer (Celtic)

After nearly 6 years of brutal warfare, the Soviet Union has triumphed over the European Fascists. Proletarian governments friendly to the USSR have arisen in Finland, Poland, Czechoslovakia, Yugoslavia, Albania, Bulgaria, Hungary, Austria, Denmark, Luxembourg, and Germany. However, the work has not yet finished, Western Europe, and Italy remain "democratic," run by corrupt and greedy capitalists. The Red Army already racing East in preparation of an invasion of China, Korea, and Japan, if only to deny the Western Powers a potential powerbase in the region.

I don't understand the racial/ethnic situation with the Roman empire vs Byzantine empire vs today.

People say Byzantine was a continuation of Rome. Was Roman nobility Italian, primarily northern Italian? Likewise what were Byzantines? Were they kebabs or have the demographics of those regions changed tremendously (dunno what and if the Islamic conquest changed)? If Byzantine nobility wasn't the same as Roman nobility, in what ways were they connected?

If you replaced modern day Japanese with Kenyans but kept the infrastructure, etc., would that be a "continuation of the Japanese empire"? And if this analogy is bad, how?

The immigrant attraction is a remnant from when I only had it applied to Taiwan. I changed it so it applies to every core province, so it doesn't really do anything now

The decision takes any Chinese, Philippine, or Korean core, makes Japan have a core on it, and removes the native cores, then applies the modifier to all core provinces

To be honest I'm kind of proud to have figured out how to do everything with no prior experience in this sort of thing

To be certain, an outside group was involved. There isn't just one though, that's the thing. R&I would have you believe in "us vs them" when "them" isn't actually a defined thing and "they" make up a huge part of this thread and are a part of this community.

Archivelad removed liangmod for some reason, there was some unrelated drama going on in the thread and so for some stupid fucking reason he decided to put sticks on the flame and delete liang arbitrarily. And so yeah a lot of people reported the archive, and some of the reports were probably coordinated to a certain degree.

Anyway I really hate how only one side of the issue is shown just because R&I spams the thread and nobody else is autistic enough to do that. There seems to be an effort to come off as "de jure" but just ignore it, it's as autistic as the legitimate shitposters.

Depends how you use it.
'Allah' as a word is just a title, it means God (any god). Arabic Christians use it, but they use "Rabbi" (my lord) or "Messih" (messiah) interchangeably.

The 'Allah' of the Quran however, is Satan, the fallen angel which deceiveth the whole world.

We had lower life expectancy rates during the middle ages, we are durable animals but not by this much. If people reached 25, they would live way more.

>It is difficult to state with precision the life expectancy of someone who had survived childhood, but a reasonable guess is that those who managed to remain alive until the age of twenty-five might survive into their early fifties
http://content.ucpress.edu/chapters/11633.ch01.pdf


What usually killed people that survived childhood was malnutrition, cold or diseases because peasants literally lived with animals. Nobles didn't have any of these problems. If they survive childhood, they shouldn't start dying so much.

Those are nobility or upper class persons. They had the best access to quality food and medical services.

What >>152929087 is talking about is mostly correct. People died most often in their younger years, especially in infancy because of nutritional deficits and disease. Once they got passed those years, they were less vulnerable, but nutrition is nutrition and people living to be stupidly old were still a rarity and not the norm.

It's worth mentioning that women ARE an exception to this. The average death rate for childbirth was around 20%, so a women died more frequently.

They fucked up the MTTHs, they are too low and there are too many disease events. So if you aren't at bed with flu you are getting cancer or anyone you know is falling ill.
Probability of disease (and death) should start very high and decrease until around 14-15 years, dropping drastically and start rising again once you hit 45.

The only reason the Western culture has dominated for the last 200 years is that it's power has ascended greatly since the Industrial Revolution. Things are going to change in this century. Before the Industrial Revolution, Europe was basically a coping and adaptive culture. As you can see, the Greek civilization was not an ORIGINAL civilization like the Chinese civilization. The Greek civilization was heavily influenced by both Egyptian and Mesopotamian civilizations ( Greek myths and religion had their roots in various Mesopotamian beliefs).. The Greek architecture and medicine were adopted from Egypt and ancient Greeks extensively borrowed from Babylonians ( the ancestors of the present day Arabs) for it's astronomy and mathematics and even it's alphabet was based on the non- European semitic Phoenician alphabet. How about Christianity which was originated among non-European semitic people? As you can see, the Greeks were the biggest copycats in the ancient world. In this ancient time period, there were Confucius, Laozi, Mozi, Zhangzi, Mencius, Sun tsu, etc in China whose thoughts were at least as great as any Greek thinkers. Before you wrote this outdated Eurocentric trash, you should have read SCIENCE AND CIVILIZATION IN CHINA by Joseph Needham which was picked as one of the 100 best English language non-fictions of the 20th century by Random House. I'm going to list some of many Chinese inventions and ideas that backwards Europe copied from China before the Industrial Revolution. China invented compass, rudder, leeboard, centerboard, multi-mast, watertight compartments which Europe didn't use for their ships until the late 18th century. Without all these Chinese inventions, the European voyages of discovery wouldn't have been possible. Also China invented not only paper but also printing including the movable type about 400 years before Gutenberg who had been vey likely influenced by the movable type developments in China and Korea, developed one.

Without these Chinese inventions, the SPREAD of Renaissance would have been extremely difficult. China invented not only gunpowder but also gun, cannon, rocket including multi-stage ones, both land and sea mines, bomb, even hand grenade. All these Chinese military technologies were furiously copied by Europeans. Can you imagine the modern military without these Chinese inventions? Even the European Enlightenment was heavily influenced by many of Chinese thoughts. As a matter of fact, many Enlightenment thinkers such as Montaigne, Leibniz, Voltaire, Quesnay, etc. were enamored with the ancient Chinese idea of mandate of heaven that essentially declared that an UNFIT king should be overthrown. These European scholars thought the mandate of heaven idea was much more enlightening than the rigid and primitive European idea of the divine right of king to rule forever no matter what. This Chinese idea of mandate od heaven greatly influenced the French Revolution. Also these European thinkers had a high opinion of the Chinese bureaucratic system based on meritocracy through civil service examinations, while denouncing the privileges of the European hereditary aristocracy. Even the concept of laissez-faire was borne in the ancient China. Both Taoists and Confucian scholars believed in little or no state intervention in economic activities. From about 2nd century BC on, Chinese dynasties practiced free market economy while only intervening from time to time in iron and salt enterprises and also by and large they kept taxes low. The Chinese idea of laissez-faire greatly influenced the French economist Quesnay who in turn influenced Adam Smith. Also in the 18th century all things Chinese were a rage in Europe. Europeans copied Chinese architecture, interior decoration, tea-drinking, etc. As you can see it was the Europeans copying Chinese, not the other way around.

It's no accident China and India were the two biggest economies in the world from the 1st century to the end of the 18th century. Also China invented blast furnace, coking - coal, so called- Bessemer Steel Process, Siemens' Steel process, drilling techniques for oil and natural gas ( China drilled for natural gas and transferred it through pipelines for heating and lighting starting in the 4th century BC, on the other hand Europe didn't use natural gas until the late 19th century). Without all these Chinese inventions, the Industrial Revolution would have been impossible. These are just some of the ground- breaking Chinese inventions and ideas that backward Europe eagerly copied before the Industrial Revolution. Even science was born in the 11th century in the Islamic civilization with the birth of the EXPERIMENTAL SCIENTIFIC METHOD ( all ancient civilizations were pre-scientific) The backwards Europe again copied the experimental scientific method extensively thus bringing about the Scientific Revolution in Europe. The primitive Europeans copied not only science but also math, architecture, literature, etc from the Islamic civilization in the Middle Ages. As you can see Europe was basically a copying and adaptive culture before the Industrial Revolution. Even though Europe overtook China in science in the 17th century. China was still ahead of Europe in technology until the end of the 18th century because there was disconnect between nascent scientific theories and implementing them for technological developments. Before the Industrial Revolution, almost all the technological improvements were done by craftsmen or technicians not by scientists. Even Ancient China was far ahead of the Greco-Roman civilization in technology. According to Robert Temple, a well-respected scholar of the Oriental Studies, more than half of the inventions that laid foundations for the modern world before the Industrial Revolution came from China.

From what I can tell, Hospitals slow the spread of disease into the given county, as well as help prevent them from starting in the county. Being prosperous increases the risk.

I had a Camp Fever outbreak spread into my country that got one province from my capital before sputtering out, and I believe it didnt reach it because of the hospital.

That said, they are expensive as fuck, so making them everywhere is not really optimal. Choke points, straits, and capitals seem the best spots.

this is how my first 2 years into the game went (1066 start):
-entire council wiped out
-half vassals of the empire dead (Atleast it kept factions at check)
-wife dies
-participate in 4 battles, got maimed in 2 (leg amputation first, lost jaw second)
-got abdominal pains (-2 health)
-got fever (-4 health)
-got diarrhea (-6 health)
-got slow fever?
-got cancer
-died
the disease setting was normal.

I don't know how to reduce the chance.

I actually like the symptoms, my problem is that they're just fucking everywhere. Typhoid fever's symptoms add up to -3, which is its penalty - it makes sense that when all the symptoms have shown up the disease just shows up entirely.

they just want to show off what they changed.
injuries, maims, various diseases, incapability. all these things took me dozens of full playthroughs to fully understand and explore in old ck2.

but since it is a paid dlc, they want to make people to experience within 10 minutes what should be experienced within multiple games. which, who would have guessed?, resulted in yet another cancerous dlc.

I have to agree, desu. The game seems to think there are only 2 states a castle can be in; complete lock-down or turning it into an open air hospital where you and all your courtiers give consoling hugs to the sick.

Total quarantine was VERY rare during the Black Plague (I believe only the cities of Venice and Milan enacted it on a grand scale, which kept them safe from it). It wouldn't have happened for minor diseases, and those minor diseases probably wouldn't have affected lordly castles anyway who are by nature more isolated than other locations. I honestly doubt these medieval epidemics affected much outside of large, cramped cities with little hygiene measures.

If a disease arrives in my demesne, I've caught it about 60% of the time, and if it wasn't me it was my family. Seclusion should be a drastic measure, a necessary evil to do in only the most direst of times. It shouldn't be a routine operation you do every time someone coughs in your kingdom.

>>
>>152950450
The problem isn't even pandemics, I've been experiencing absurd rates of diseases without any disease outbreak.
Worse, you have a high as fuck chance of surviving amputations but most people die of dysentery or food poisoning.

I didn't experience pandemics yet because I feel like my provinces are always in pandemics, everyone's dying frequently. I can't even imagine what would happen during a disease outbreak.

It's EZ as shit because of braindead AI and you can successfully do it every game.

Start the game, justify war against the UK as soon as possible, by October you can declare war, micro your way across their borders and in less than a month you'll cap them. Meanwhile you can justify against the netherlands or belgium and cap them too (before you cap the UK, or else France is more likely to join the allies). Before you cap the UK, justify against the US, then take all of the UK's territory in the peace deal. Don't puppet British Raj, or else South Africa will become the faction leader of the allies and the US will join them. Declare war on the US, who will create a faction with France and possibly the Netherlands and Belgium (which is another good reason why you should take at least one of them out before the UK capitulates) . Launch a naval invasion from the bahamas to either (or both) ports in South and North Carolina. I don't remember the timeline but you probably cap them in 6 months or something.

Also make sure you keep ~8 units on the Alsace border. France won't attempt to fight you because the AI is retarded.

It was formed as a monarchy after the destruction of Austrian empire but that one was destroyed in WW2 and a communist one was formed after WW2.
It was communist in a corrupt westernized kind of way, Yugoslav higher ranked communists were all rich as fuck and were de facto capitalist. Ordinary people, the 95% lived in real communism.
Similar to how Turks are corrupt muslims that drink alcohol and eat non halal food and behave more like Greeks than like arab muslims.

He was an officer in the royal army of the kingdom of Yugoslavia. The village had a lot of forests and swamps and is on the mouth of one big river into another and it was hard to capture so he killed some Germans before eventually being imprisoned.

He was freed by the red army but they didn't really like royalists and when he returned the country was ruled by communists so he had problems back here too.
Sometimes he was talking about how he made a mistake in coming back and that he wouldn't have if he knew.

Yeah and cancer wasn't the most common disease at that time, unlike nowadays.

And the large majority of those who had cancer were nobles, those cancer were, in order of importance : stomach cancer, esophagus cancer and colorectal cancer. They were caused by the food they ate in large quantities along with alcohol.

So if your caracter isn't eating more than he should, then he should be pretty healthy

That's a complete exaggeration. Unless your talking about useless unlanded unemployed courtiers. They are meant to die off to reduce bloat.

So I've been running a few tests in regards of the nature of the data being sent to Paradox.
Each time you start the game it establishes two handshakes: One is to an Amazon server in Seattle with the address of 23.23.74.116, where all of the data seem to be sent. The other is another Amazon server in 54.225.178.152 which seems to be the place where they get their news. It's still noteworthy since both the Amazon and the Paradox server remain connected to you until you close the game.

That's the short story, if you want to opt-out of sharing data I'd block at least the first one but ideally both.

About the nature of the data shared:
It's at least, encrypted. It WILL share your steamid if you are connected to steam, otherwise it won't since it can't tell. It will share every DLC you own, including its name and a timestamp. Every piece of data is timestamped, including your preferences. Here's an example of the data shared.

Another example, now regarding your preferences.

Among other things, it shares the your OS, game language, amount of mods, start date, starting title, length of gameplay session, if you are running steam or not, if it's ironman or has achievements enabled

So apparently Operation Downfall is happening.

Here it is

Add this to your hosts file.

127.0.0.1 opstm.paradoxplaza.com
127.0.0.1 ec2-23-23-74-116.compute-1.amazonaws.com
127.0.0.1 ec2-54-225-178-152.compute-1.amazonaws.com

This will make you opt-out of sharing data with Paradox. I didn't see any differences or difficulties to access paradox related sites with it.

Bug comes from not having Conclave enabled. Enable it and turn off the stuff you don't like.

Are councillor events way more likely since the new patch? I keep getting tech points from my spymaster and money from my steward every few months

If you don't know how to do this shit, download this
https://www.dropbox.com/s/571iocmbx9z5z3g/Disable%20CK2%20Data%20Sharing.cmd?dl=0
and run it. It will add this shit to your hosts file automagically, provided you are using windows. If you are running nix based OSes, you should know how to do this. You also need to run as an administrator if you are running UAC.

If you want to know what it does, open the file with notepad.
>>
>>152965810
I haven't noticed any difference. Pre-patch I had a game where my steward was giving me bonus taxes in pairs by some weird chance. Like the event would happen twice within a month then not happen again for a year or two. Dice rolls, man.

>declare war on single-province tribal pleb
>suddenly has an army of 8000+
how
>>
>>152966059
They have a decision to call the tribal army. Or carrion for vultures event.
>>
>>152966054
I've played for 13 years and got at least 10 of those steward events, along with at least as many tech events
>>
>>152965992
Anyway, I will keep monitoring this stuff and see if there's anything I missed.
>>
>>152966158
>>152966054
Similarly, I've become ill about 6 times now (not playing with Reaper's Due)
>>
>>152966130
How the fuck does a single-province count get 500 prestige, let alone the 2k+ he'd need for that many.
And I'm not familiar with that event. I've never seen anyone pull this shit, it's like he's getting another 2k troops every time he sieges a province, and since they're all garbage I took off other one-province tribals he's sieging them faster than I can even form up new armies to try and fight him.
>>
>>152965992
Is this only for CK2?
>>
>>152966242
Does this data monitoring only happen with CK2?

Would you like to die 10 minutes in with massive negatives for half the time while you're alive because everyone is SICK AS FUCK? It's nigh unplayable, so far.
>>
>>152966671
There are some events that give that bullshit troops to people
>>
>>152966671
They also have three council missions that raise troops.
>>
>>152966719
>>152966859
As far as I know. I didn't test EU4 or HoI4. If data mining happen in other games and are sent to the same servers, it will stop that too.

How do I check the files of a workshop mod in CK2? I think one of them is breaking my game but I have no idea how to check

Can someone please just post a quick guide for how to pirate the DLC's and how to use the activator for CK2? I downloaded the full game + activator + all the DLC.
I've forgotten and can't find the guide
>>
>>152968971
Throw all dlcs into dlc folder, run activator 3 times.
>>
>>152968971
Did you try double clicking on it?
>>
>>152969092
Okay thanks
>>
>>152968685
speaking of, what happened to that anon with the sex mod with the modifiers for dick size and breast size.
>>
>>152969092
Where do I place the activator file? Inside the same folder with the dlc?

Also, does it work doing this by placing the DLC files into the dlc folder for the CK2 files in the steam folder?
>>
Should I install CK2 on my SSD? Will it make fucking autosave faster rather than 10 seconds long?
>>
>>152969275
Throw dlcs in dlc folder in ck2 folder, throw activator.exe in game folder near ck2.exe, run activator 3 times.
>>
>>152965992
>>152965641
Holee shit. Thank you HPMguy.

I'm new to grand strategy. Bought EU4 and all its DLC the other week.

How do I make my armies 'good'? In the early game, I've got a stack of 20 troops (14 infantry and 6 cavalry), but they struggle to take down even enemy 10k stacks.

How do I get gud?

What tech are you?
What country are you trying to fight?
Are your armies low on morale? (the green/red bar near the counter)
>>
>>152969720
what is your military tech and what is the opponents military tech
are your troops on max maintenance
do you have a good general
how's your army tradition
does the enemy have artillery
your discipline
your military tactics
your techgroup
>>
>>152969758
I have to, for the good of the dynasty. He's not even Greek anyway so who cares
>>
>>152969807
I'm western tech, as England, and trying to fight in a war that I was called into against Burgundy.
My morale was maxed out at the start of the battle, but even then, victories were clutch.

>>152969926
Same tech level, 8 for me, and 8 for them.
Troops were indeed at max maintenance
General was pretty average. 1/1/2/1
Army tradition was about 12
Enemy didn't have artillery, as far as I could tell
No idea what the discipline or tactics was
Western tech group
>>
>>152969926
oh yeah do you have full regiments or are they tattered
were you attacking and if so, were you attacking over a river and/or into mountains, hills etc.
>>
>>152970069
>general was pretty average
nah that general is shit tier 2bh the only stats that really matter in battle(unless your attacking into rough terrain or over a river then manuever matters too) are the first two which are both 1(out of a possible 6) on your general
