which country are you? Depending on your tech you'll want a max percentage of cavalry in your stacks. I think it's generally around 60% for western countries, but muslim is like 80%, so they have an advantage there. Generally Shock is for damaging enemy morale, and morale is what's really important in fights. Fire is usually done by infantry while Shock is done by the cavalry. Military Drill can really make a difference early with its boost to morale, so if the Ottomans have it plus their superior troops, you really won't have much luck.

Castille. With 16 land tech, I've only Latin Cav and Chevauchee. My infantry can be Reformed Gallows, Landsknechten, and Condatta (Respectively, they're offensive, defensive, balanced(?) options, right?).
I'm also at 16 Gov tech, so I could just dump my research and get Military Drill in just short of 3 years.
Should I just let my French allies shit over Anatolia while I diddle my thumbs in Iberia until I get Military Drill? I'm not too keen watching these Turks run about with Spanish land.

Spanish netherlands is coastal, in the rare cases someone inherited a castle far away in the middle of somewhere they left someone local in charge and at max spent a few months there away from everything. It certainly didn't end with crossing the Seine to go to Paris making you enter Portugal.

Not my particular flavor of autism but I don't judge you.

>>153990887
yeah that sounds about right. I believe the offensive and defensive stats only come into play depending on who is attacking, so if you figure you'll be attacking more than waiting and baiting, I'd go for the Reformed.

It took me a little while to get the hang of armies too, and knowing when to send a stack and when to bait the enemy. It's also a good idea to learn about attrition and taking notice of if and when an army is going to enter a province after the first of the month.

But do take Military Drill when you can. It's usually the first idea that a lot of AI countries take, so you can be at a disadvantage if you don't as well.

>>153991510
Okay, sounds good. I'll stay in Iberia while France provides a distraction, add more cavalry to my armies and more transports to my navy, rush towards MD, and, hopefully, that'll work out.
What are some other things I can try to work towards in the mean time? I'm also curious about Generals, as the ones I buy are pretty shitty. Do they just apply their bonuses towards the rolls of the phase of the battle, but, then, what does a bonus to maneuver or siege mean?

>>153991823
The think the nation of Israel sucks but I don't hate Jews for it.

>>153991823

>>153992092

t. reddit

>>153992086
When you click on an army and it shows its info in the UI, the cavalry number will turn red if you go over your bonus limit, so pay attention to that. Like I said I think it's 60%. If you hover over it it should tell you.

Generally as Castille you try to form Spain or go colonizing, but since that can be expensive you should try making more money. Also I just noticed you're in a war but your military maintenance is not at 100%. That'll really deplete your army morale and cause you to lose many battles.

Your generals are bought with Army Tradition, which is gained mostly from winning battles but you can also get it through events and buildings. The higher your tradition, the better your generals. The generals add their bonuses to your army during battles, but if your general has a +2 to shock, and the enemy has a +1 shock general, you only get a +1 bonus, as it subtracts from whichever is higher. Maneuver bonus means your army moves faster through the map, which can help you get to a province before an enemy army, giving you a terrain advantage, and siege bonus just makes province sieges go faster.

>60%
It says 50% for Combined Arms bonus
>military maintenance is not at 100%
My armies are at 100%, but I'm leaving my navies at 70% because there's not a lot of naval combat going on, so that'd just drain my income. Is this a bad policy, or is it worth the extra drain on resources, especially as I'm above my build limit?
>Generals
Okay, cool, that's nice to know.

Is Johan based?

>>153992825
Maybe 60% was for Eastern Tech. Lowering your maintenance during peace or when unused is definitely recommended. Putting the slider all the way down is fine, though it takes about 2 or 3 months for them to regain their morale when you put it back up, so be wary of that before you declare any wars.

There's really no penalty for it other than morale, so either have it all the way up, or all the way down. As for being above your build limit, that gets really expensive and can give you a nasty event that causes a shortage of naval supplies and gives you a big penalty to ship build cost and time and things like that for the rest of the game. Try to stay at or below if possible

HoI3 has a pre-ck2 UI that killed my interest, but is acclaimed as the much better game.

HoI4 is much more accessible at the cost of being a shitton easier and more casual of a game. I've seen mixed reactions around the general.

>>153996543
HoI3 is a better game, objectively, in most features. It's a tad hard to get into though, and if you're like me, it crashes every ten minutes

Personally I enjoy HoI4 as just a WW2 strategy game to just get comfy and play, but as you'll soon see from a flood of replies, nobody else here does.

Holy shit I made my Heir a Merc in CKII, when I died he had a fuckload of gold, and was involved in a war on a petty kingdom. When I finished the war, I got to keep the kingdom. I also got to keep his court of commanders who he mercd with.

>>153996543
Much better game if you enjoy the sandboxey feel of eu4 over the historical simulation that was hoi3. Dont play it for another few DLC though, its at a place where playing it could make you hate the game

>>153996662
How do you make your son a merc?

>>153991305
Yeah sometimes, but then if you split/merge the armies it fucks up the naming. I'd spend ages renaming my German armies so that the numbering displayed in order, but then after one war it would be completely fucked, and I would have to fix it all again. It gets kind of tiring after a while.

>>153996694
I just wish they'd fix the fucking rockets.
They infinitely fly into whatever province they hit and don't explode.

>>153996948
Its from a DLC I think, but you just do it like you do anything to them from the profile, and I think he uses your troops while he's away, as well as costing you 50 gold to set him up. You get a percent of his profits from people hiring him. Can be done to anybody eligible but with the Heir it's a bit unique because they inherit halfway through.

Also they must be militarily trained and competent.

Jesus christ the new war system in Hearts of Iron 4 is so unbelievably garbage. I love the political system in the game, but going in to a war just ruins everything.

>>153997336
What part about it, specifically?

Did the /qa/ thread get deleted?

>>153997471
I feel so out of control of battles, it seems the divisions automatically make the most inane strategic choices, the offensive line painter just feels horrible to use, and air stuff is needlessly overcomplicated. Maybe I'm too used to the Darkest Hour/HoI2 format, but it feels like wars are a lot more of a chore than they used to be with the terrible front mechanic and piss poor interface.

It just disappoints me so much, because I absolutely love the political systems they implemented, and think that portion is a great leap over HoI2's.

Yeah I know how you feel with the AI. "Lets push one province and keep pushing down in a straight line far away from the actual front." The supply system is an underexplained pain in the ass, the planning system only benefits you if you aren't already in a war and naval battles are so bizarre and fairly mundane.

The air system seems fine to me though, don't really see the gripe with that. I will say that they should really let you designate an area for your planes, rather than pre-determined regions. Even my jet fighters can't cover all of eastern-canada, which fucks them over in efficiency.

>>153995839
I sometimes do the same in DH.

>>153998074
I can't seem to actually get my planes to work, for whatever reason. They don't want to do anything.

>>153998226
You have to create air wings in air bases, and then click the air base, select the air wings, click on a province with them selected (might be right click), and then give them missions on the left menu, where they will continue to carry them out until they either die or the war moves on.
Also, you should try to keep your fighter wings to 100 planes for various reasons.

>How to fix HoI4 economy with one move:
Add fucking money as a currency into the game. They are produced from unused civilian factories (which might motivate the player to keep some instead of converting all of them to military ones at mid-late game). Instead of civilian factories (how the fuck do you export a factory), you now export money for resources. You can also import money for resources (how the fuck did they release a game where you cannot export things). Military equipment can also be bought for money (expensively), which will represent how smaller countries had to import weapons, ships and airplains from greater powers with contracts.

This just fixed 25% of the game. Another 25% can be fixed through several small fixes (remove ms-paint portraits with historical ones, add ability to demand/offer territory, make the tech-tree not look like a fucking World of Tanks store, add more than 1 historical personality for small countries, map redesign, fix unit/symbol/animation sizes, etc). Rest 50% is up to fixing the literally useless AI.

It's pretty sad how much content is missing from previous HoI titles that could be easily implemented with literally no downside. It appears that the millenials they hired to make their game haven't even played HoI2.

it's pretty sad actually. this suggestion is perfectly within the game's engine capabilities, it will make the game more immersive, it will fix multiplayer to some extent and it will make smaller countries much more fun to play without making blobbing necessary.

but they still won't do it, because it is paradox. and in the 0.1% chance they do it, it will be in the form of a dlc 2x times more expensive than the base game, that will come up with a shit-ton of other broken features.

I think I made up a good way of ending border gore in CK2.

When an inheritance would end with a foreigner controlling a whole county in the middle of another kingdom's, that county should automatically flip capitals to another holding. First it would try a another equal holding, then churches and cities. That way you still have external inheritance but you don't have dumb shit like pic related. Far-away holdings in landlocked places should have to still pay some taxes to the count and would net less soldiers. He should probably have to pay for a constable or some shit like that to take care of his fief too.
If the owner of a holding is a count and owns barony in another kings kingdom and the province is ruled by a mayor or bishop, then said count could betray his former master and swear allegiance to the new king in exchange of his barony becoming the capital and moving his court there.
The only problem with this is how to deal with one-holding only provinces.

If a king inherits a crown and ends up with a landlocked kingdom, or alternatively if anyone ends with a landlocked duchy or cluster of holdings, he should be obliged either to move there and make it their main holding or appoint a viceroy or governor. They would pay taxes and would need to answer the king's calls to arms but would otherwise remain with a separate council and separate nobles. Name and color should also remain separate.

>>154005558

>>154006227
Won't do it from the start but I can make an "Alaskan" culture which is generic enough to not imply anything but region and a decision that flips the capital to the culture.

Migration push is already more than double than vanilla (for unemployment). Besides the increased chances of leaving it's largely vanilla. Do remember that in places with factories pops won't move as easily and it's not about how many people you have but their living conditions.

>>154006519
Already answered that and the answer didn't change.

>>154006972
No, didn't have the time. Speaking about time, I have to go. Bye /gsg/.

>>154006948
These kind of enclaves happened irl though
What if the color of the county changed to the color of the highest title of the dejure liege of the county, it would make things much easier on the eyes, and it would make sense since the holder of the county is technically a vassal of the dejure holder there

>>154007216
btw, is there anything you can do about pops(labourers/farmers) emigrating when the RGO thing is full? Do they still work there even though it says it's full?

>>154007216
congrats on getting married by the way

>>154006948
It'd need to be messed with a bit but this sounds like a good idea if you ask me.

Another thing that, in my opinion, would fix nomads for good, would be to set up a sort of "flow" of the nomadic cultures down the steppe by limiting the amount of land a nomadic entity can hold (in terms of counties + subholdings, so an empty 7 holding province needs about as many people to hold it as 7 1 holding provinces) based on their population size. Population growth would be dependent on holding lots of land, but over time land you've held the longest should deteriorate, doing so faster if you don't hold enough land, and when you expand, either above your limit or while holding these, they get abandoned. Other nomads can claim them at their leisure if they border it, and civilized sorts should be able to build holdings there.

>>154007283
They happened in the way I'm proposing they happen. If a Spanish noble inherited a castle in the middle of England he wouldn't control that whole county, he would just get the castle. Only situation that can be true is when distances aren't really that great that makes control of both effective.

When a king inherited a crown he didn't rule it all like it was nothing, he can't be in two places at once. It was like the Iberian union: the king sat with his ass in spain while Portugal was de facto separated. If the King of France inherits the crowns of Hungary, he wouldn't control the nobles there with his telepathic powers. He would name a regent to rule in his stead.

>>154006948

Just set regulated inheritance to always on if this kind of things really bothers you. Inheriting county and getting a barony makes even less sense than inheriting an exclave. IRL this thing didn't happen because one man could pay taxes to two people, i.e. count could be a vassal of two dukes simultaneously, now if you could impliment that, that would be singularly impressive.

>>154007216
Could you give the player/AI access to decisions that reduce RGO size in non-colonial provinces (maybe in exchange for increased throughput efficiency, once you develop electricity/tractors), to properly encourage industrialization or colonial emigration?

This is especially annoying sometimes just because how huge the RGOs in some provinces are, if I remember right a few provinces in New England start with RGOs that can hold 1.3m pops each.

>>154007562
I find that in general CK2 needs a system wherein far away vassals can betray their liege and become independent/swear fealty to someone else to better simulate the entropy of empires, it could happen over time with the liege having less and less authority over the vassal every succession/ lost war etc.(but it should be able to be prevented). it would make empires more interesting

>>154007701
That could work, altho I'm not sure it will solve the issue of border gore. But than again, if there was an easy solution that makes sense from standpoint of history and game mechanics, we wouldn't have jokes about Aquitaine (I think that's the one with iffy vassalage) as part of patch notes.

>>154007835
i really think that the tributary system in ck2 can be used to do this well. Like on succession the "vassals" that liked you stay tributaries and over time may integrate fully as real vassals. While the ones that didnt like you just flake off and you get a CB against them.

Would also make things harder since you now have to work with many allies instead of raising half your vassals shit for yourself.

>>154007632
That would completely eliminate external inheritance, which is its own problem. He could be nominally called a "count" but he would never control that land.
In the game inheriting the holding is tied to the county, if the county wasnt the capital it would just be a barony.
You see I think this kind of stuff (exclaves) should still happen but only if the exclave is coastal or near enought he kingdoms border to make crossing there something viable. Right now a count in iceland can inherit shit in the middle of India like it's nothing, and control both.
In the case of kingdoms and duchies, you'd still control them but they would have a far higher degree of independence, with self-rule and a designated regent.

>>154007489
I'm not sure I get what you are saying, but then again I didn't play nomads too much. Is population growth tied to peace or war in any way? Seems kinda dumb if it isn't since if you get all men dead in a war but people continue breeding like nothing happened.

>>154007835
Well that's part of the plans, you could betray your liege and swear fealty to another, without a war but pissing a lot of people off, if you held a barony/county of another king and moved there.

>>154008073
Integration over time should depend on shared borders, how can you integrate something if you don't effectively rule the place and it's far away from your court?

>>154004043
CK2+ is designed to try and make CK harder, which is pretty fucking stupid as CK2 isn't about being difficult, it's about being a Dynasty-RP GSG-lite game, which HIP excels at improving.

Plus HIP implemented most of the better aspects of CK2+ so there's no real reason to choose CK2+ unless you're just memeing.

>>154008112
>He could be nominally called a "count" but he would never control that land.
Sorry I can't be arsed to dig trough history for detailed examples, so I won't argue historicity, I will simply restate that baronies are useless, if you want to go with this, one option could be to create a new count there, make him vassal of the proper authorities and a tributary of the count who should have inherited, thus representing the sort of regency you are describing and avoiding border gore. But then again, I don't mind the gore, so what do I know.

>>154007835
Fuck off, you stupid cunt.

>>154008112

Yeah cause there is only one way to play a game where you need 100 hours to make you an average player.

>>154004043
Pic related for actual answer.

>>154008112
Basically nomads grow in size over time. What I'm proposing is that based on how big they are, they need more land to sustain themselves, but also can only own so much land given the size of their horde.

When they take new land, land on the other side of them would stop being owned by them, letting nomads on that side move to fill in the gap. The person they just conquered, if they're also a nomad, also now needs more land, so they'd push further down the steppe until they hit civilization like what happened historically.

I'm basically trying to figure out a healthy way to prevent the nomad doomstacks from forming and just holding together forever, since that's not realistic at fucking all outside of the Mongols. No one ruled the whole steppe forever.

>>154008319
>The title of Count was also often conferred by the monarch as an honorific title for special services rendered, without a feudal estate (countship, county) being attached, so it was merely a title, with or without a domain name attached to it.
When you inherit something, you inherit the holding. Castle only, titles are normally just honorifics but the game doesn't simulate that.
The current way it happens is retarded though. If a noble from Portugal inherits the "county" of Paris, he becomes lord of Paris. Like the French king would let that happen. What would happen IRL is that the french king recognize's that the noble is the rightful owner of the castle and the castle would become a vacation house for the portuguese noble, because his power would be limited to the castle walls.
The power of a "capital holding" to control the other holdings isn't something inherent, it comes from control of the land. An exclave where the owner resides at thousands of kilometers of distance doesn't control the land and if the portuguese noble didn't abide by the French's terms he would lose his holding to starvation as the french king bans any trade with the castle and harass the lands.

But when the references are about Skyrim, Anime and when you fill it with toilet humor, then who the fuck would include it in any serious mod compilation?

Paradox thinks that allowing mods with genocide in their forums is "supporting them". I disagree. But choosing to bundle VIET in your mod IS supporting it.

>>154008918
I will go ahead and assume you are 100% correct on historicity, since as I said I can't be arsed. My problem with your solution isn't that it's horribad, but rather that from gameplay perspective it creates issues, such as with events/decisions that require comple control of a county/dutchy/kingdom w/o producing anything productive. I.E. Who cares if a portuguise count holds an extra barony or if he doesn't. I'm pretty sure even if that count is a player he won't give a flying fuck.

>>154009248
Eh, VIET is a guilty pleasure for some and stupid silly fun for others. I'm not gonna defend it's silliness, becaue I don't care and am not on of either groups. Just mention that toilet humor wouldn't be a category if there weren't enough people around who enjoy it.

>>154009484
My problem isn't that it is toilet humor and a mememod, people enjoy what they want, the problem is naming it "Vanilla Events" when it doesn't even try to do that. At least name it what it is.

>>154009267
Gameplay and Reality segregation.

>>154009414
Yeah I think there's an event for that, though that's not really how it worked IRL. The Mongol Empire should only get stunned when their Khan dies as they elect another one.

For that I suggest the new baron gets a permanent CB to vassalize the other holdings, essentially making them tributaries and naming a regent to rule.
One of the problems with CK2 is that characters are virtually omnipresent. That isn't much of a problem in kingdoms with a land connection but when border gore starts that becomes glaring.

EMF v6.01
MAJOR:
(Vanilla Map) EU4 Conversion Supported
EMF+Vanilla (EMF without SWMH) game conversion to Europa Universalis 4 via the Converter DLC should now be more correct than ever.
All EMF-unique religious, cultural, and government type setup is now supported for conversion.
While we were at it, we incorporated the mod Vanilla Converter Fixes v0.8 with permission from and credit to @tkamin (see: https://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/index.php?threads/mod-converter-vanilla-converter-fixes.871522/).
CHANGES:
Coronations:
Coronation event text will now mention the performing bishop, if there is one.
Vassals of neighboring realms are no longer invited to a coronation - they are either in the same realm as the ruler being coronated or they are independent.
The bishop performing a royal/imperial coronation is no longer random. Five days after invitations are sent out, bishops will begin asking to perform the ceremony - beginning with the religion head (if invited) and moving down through the ranks by tier, friends/relatives, and then baron-tier bishops first in the ruler's capital and then elsewhere in their realm. Only one such request fires each day until the coronation is performed (and they stop the moment you accept one).
Fighter & Diplomacy Traits:
Fighter training now does not start until age 6 (rather than age 5).
Added more checks to adjust the time it takes for a child to increase their training skill.
Once a child levels up in either Fighter or Diplomat training, they will not do so for at least another year.
Female children do not receive Fighter training unless they are eligible to lead armies.
Female children do not receive Diplomat training unless they are eligible to be chancellors or are independent rulers.
Educators are now increasingly better at training children the higher their own Fighter or Diplomat skill is.
Chancellors can slowly increase their Diplomat skill over time.

>>154010784
Fighter skill can now decrease more than one level after age 45, but after it decreases it won't decrease again for another 10 years at least.
The Become a Saint ambition should now take longer to complete, and there will be far fewer AI characters who attempt it and succeed (and thus fewer saints being declared overall).
The Become King ambition will no longer be selected by rulers that are outright disqualified from creating their capital kingdom title (due to special creation requirements, which are present at least in some form for every kingdom title), if it is not already held by another ruler.
When a player ruler dies, their successor will immediately have their current focus and ambition cleared, if any.
Within the first year after a player's succession, the focus of any of their children who are in their court may be cleared once via the new Clear Childhood Focus diplo-decision.
Military:
Increased raised-levy maintenance cost factor a bit (from a factor of 2.2 to 2.5).
Slightly decreased warscore-worth of normal battles (from a multiplier of 1.33 to 1.25).
Significantly increased warscore-worth of battles that are part of a crusade/jihad/GHW (now vanilla) or a duchy adventure or similar (higher than vanilla).
One may no longer plot to fabricate a claim upon their liege's primary title if it is king-tier or higher.
Gaining a claim on an Imperial throne can no longer be done by mercenaries or holy orders, and the claimant must now be of the emperor's religion.

When a character dies due to health complications from dwarfism, the death reason should now be localised as such (instead of just 'death_dwarf').
Fixed vanilla omission of the Caliphal Subjugation CB with regard to the new "when launching a war adds a major cooldown or costs a lot of piety, it will be removed/refunded if the war invalidates" practice.
(EMF+SWMH) Great Moravia is no longer rendered titular upon formation of the HRE to avoid the 2.6.1.1 "anybody can usurp titular titles, including AI" bug.

Subhanallah, 93 years after the Abbasid caliph sent my father, Salah ad-Din, to Egypt to deal with the fatimids, we are finally returning home. The Abbasids have grown decadent, they forgot their levantine and arabic roots. Badshah Musa the just, sultan of Egypt, Abyssinia, Arabia and now Mesopotania is 71 years old but still has to root out the decadent Abbasids from the levant.

You just need to have high enough revanchism to get tons of jingoism to add more war goals, and if you become fascist later on I'm sure that you can annex civilized countries with less than 3 states in a single war, single CB.

It might be even easier than in vanilla Vic II with no expansions since occupying provinces gives you more warscore over time now.

Adding wargoals isn't a problem.

Rebels are the problem.

>>154019003
Just fucking kill them all, it's not hard. Especially once you research the gas attack tech.

Keep your capital protected and you should never have any problems with rebels no matter how big their stacks are, that is, if you don't mind killing millions of your primary culture pops over 100 years. +500k rebel stacks are common if you genocide your minorities every 5 years, yet it never caused me any real problems.

HPM will unironically defend this, because apparently IRL millions of primary culture pops in a given country fought and were killed by the government because said government decided to kill off their minorities, leaving them entirely unaffected.

You can see that my army was pathetically small, yet it was more than enough to deal with any rebels. I probably could have reduced revolt risk a bit if it were larger, but honestly, when your pops are getting +0,20 MIL from reform desire and 7 militancy every time you genocide, what will that do?

It's honestly just as bad as angry retarded vassals who fight for elective monarchy all the time.
