I think the only way to get r&i to stop is by ignoring him. He's playing 4d chess here, he's a shitposter and he knows he is but at the same time still has his self-appointed duty, so unless we ignore him, he will keep reminding us to ignore him.

so first time playing eu4 in a year or two. started out as Imerina, the tribal landlocked nation on madagascar. then this is how it ended.

didn't think i'd make it past the westerners colonizing. last time i played eu4 i was a southeast asian island country and after a couple hundred years spain came by and deus veulted the hell out of me.

but this was a lot different. surprisingly even though they were all -200 and hostile to me i only fought with the westerns once and i was the one to start the war to get capetown. then i bro'd it up with the ottomans and conquered the rest of central africa. i was too scared to go to war with france since they were #1 world power so i couldn't get the west african coast.

how'd i do?

Will there ever be any alternative to genocide to make provinces your culture in HPM?

Also do you know where in the files you can find the "national assimilation" event for provinces that I see the AI getting, and also the core creation event. I would love to see what the exact requirements are. As in my Vietnam game I have made Laos majority Vietnamese but still no event.

Well genocide doesn't make anyone your culture, it just kills people. I don't plan on anything at the moment. The assimilation programs in the 19th century just showed that you can't do that successfully without A) a long ass time or B) deporting people to the middle of nowhere.

There's an event for it, so luck. In a few cases like China and Japan, I don't think you can until you westernize. I think.

Hey yo, HPM. I know this is a silly question.

But is there a way to get at least a couple chinese immigrants from china when they are not westernized, or is that hard coded, because chinese immigrants were a BIG problem in the old west

>>160624861
So you're SHL that event aside? You can't even use actual diplomacy?

>>160624638
Number one, that's liquor. Number two, that's liquor.

HPM remember to add a flavor event that lets Persia know that the Kurds declared independence. If that's easy of course.

>>160624082
Alright, I'll sum it all up in one post.

It's a bit of an odd request, but could you make a flag of a Chinese-Japanese Empire (imagine the Japanese somehow swiped away the mandate of heaven when Ming fell, instead of the Manchus). By 1836 it'd be a Chinese Empire led by a Japanese Emperor, but one with a mixed bag of Chinese and Japanese influences.

So basically a Japanese version of Qing.

Does anyone have the raw Vicky2 3.04 patch? Got the Steam version, though without the HoD expansion so I can't use the official Steam way to download the beta patch.

>>160625201
just google the patch it's on the wiki free download

>>160624861
As shogunate Japan and China in the most recent beta versions, I was able to get rid of isolationism.

>>160625201

>>160625104
Starting December the 1st I'll do all flags I'm requested. I'll write this down so I don't forget. Remind me on december the 1st, though, just in case.

Anyway gotta go, see ya /gsg/.

So theoretically, how far can I stretch my kingdom with only one feudal county under my rule? I currently have 13 counties, with one feudal county and the rest being tribal. I'm thinking of taking four more as part of my Jewish genocide campaign, but I´m not sure I can do that with only 900 troops, and I'm scared that I will stretch myself thin with 5 more tribal vassal counties.

Thanks for the answer. Sorry that I keep nagging you about assimilation every time you show up here. I guess I just hate how the only paradox game with pops that have nationalities and religion gives you so few opportunities to interact with them.

>>160625257
Thanks, didn't realise they actually released an .zip version of that patch.
>>160625403
I would, but being in a shitty financial situation I prefer to keep money I wouldn't otherwise have to spend per sé. I greatly respect Paradox Interactive and would pay for it if it weren't for my finances. Maybe later?

Don't lie to me, piratefag

>>160624861
Also do you know if the closed borders policy affects internal migration?
Like am i right in thinking that closing the borders will increase the amount of people that migrate to my colonies?

>>160625851
>I greatly respect Paradox Interactive
Cuck.

>>160625567
I'm not sure about one county, but with just the de jure duchies of Galilee and Jerusalem in my personal demesne I could raise more men than any other realm. Though, I was a merchant republic so I was able to max out all of the holdings. I'd say that even with just one county it should be possible. Just don't expand faster than you can sustain.

>>160625002
Will do.

>>160624942
Normal immigration is hardcoded not to happen from uncivs.

>>160624954
Only through event.

>>160625348
Thanks, I stand corrected.

>>160625764
That's kinda the point of Victoria 2 though. A country doesn't (normally) have absolute control over their population. That started with the ideological stuff in the 20th century.

>>160625953
It stops overseas migration which basically kills any overseas colonial migration.

>>160626203
By the way, what are the new national foci you hinted at, and how do they work? Will you ever make a wiki?

>>160626203
Is overseas determined by continents? As it does indeed look like no one is going to my African holdings, but it does look I am getting some migration to my colonies in Korea witch is on the same continent as me(Vietnam).

I don't think I will ever take the time to write a wiki, though I add a few things to the readme if they are requested a lot or need an explanation.

>>160626923
There's two definitions in the game: any territory in another continent not connected to the capital through land and any territory not connected to the capital through land. Different parts use different definitions, I'm not sure which of the two pops use.

>>160627241
Expanding the readme or adding another text file that explains the new features wouldn't be bad either. but what about the NFs?

Is the oil in Sudan especially hard to drill?

If people knew about it in the 19th/early 20th century, would they have been able to harvest it?

I want to make some decisions like the NZ mining one, that unlock resources that theoretically could have been mined in the era. Most of Africa is fucked in regards to coal deposits, but oil is all over the place. A civilized Kongo or Ethiopia or Niger country could do really well from that.

>>160627747
>If people knew about it in the 19th/early 20th century, would they have been able to harvest it?

People would, but blacks probably wouldn't. Sudan would have to be cleansed and settled first for that to happen.

>>160627241
Give us some hints about those NFs you tease. We have waded through so many liquor memes to find you.

>>160627423
>but what about the NFs?
I quoted the post that explains it to you.

>>159864039
-Added 6 new NFs exclusive to colonies. The first one increase the attractiveness of a colonial state by 200%, the second one increases farming efficiency by 50%, the third one increases mining efficiency by 50%, the fourth one increases RGO efficiency in treaty ports and the Suez/Panama Canal, the fifth one reduces militancy in a colonial state by -0.50 and the last one decreases consciousness in a colonial state by -0.50. All of these, except for colonial migration NF, are locked to Overseas colonies ONLY. Some of the NFs have a downside, some have an upside.

>>160627876
Go back to /pol/ lad. This is a game about alternate history.

>>160627929
Sorry, I missed it. So basically the colonial migration "virtually" raises the colony's life rating? Does it work just as is or you need other prerequisites such as deportation and unemployment?

>>160627929
imma let you finish but these enefs is trash
What practical use do they have in game? I can see the colonial state one being barely useful as someone like Britain or Germany but the rest seem superfluous. Why would I want colonial consciousness down? Why would I want higher RGO efficiency in treaty ports? I really see almost no use for these and the ones I do see use in, like the mining efficiency one, only seem useful in estremely specific examples like precious metal RGOs.

Sorry if this is harsh. You get enough shit from steamcordplaza so I dont like to disparage the things you do but these really do seem to add nothing.

Hey HPM, what about a decision for giving Egypt its clay back if a GP takes it? I mean I can just edit the save but doing it via decision would be tidier.

Something tells me no amount of effort could overcome the immensity of your base reluctance to them.

It's not a joke. Sub-Saharans were seriously behind on technology in that era and would not have the capabilities neccessary to harvest oil.

I genuinely want to know how you tolerate the tedious layers of mechanics they've added since Art of War.

>>160628392
But when? In what scenario?

>>160628216
It work as is, no prerequisites.

Not really, raising LR raises pop growth. This siphons pops that are colonial migrating to the states you choose.

>>160628242
Keep in mind pops still need to decide to colonially migrate.

>>160628281
>Why would I want colonial consciousness down?
It affects ideology and pops with high CON are more likely to join and support movements.

>Why would I want higher RGO efficiency in treaty ports?
Because they usually produce gold or RGOs that aren't abundant in europe. The NF also boosts immigration to the treaty port by 25%.

> I really see almost no use for these and the ones I do see use in, like the mining efficiency one, only seem useful in estremely specific examples like precious metal RGOs.
They are meant for specific situations, like rare RGOs for europeans (tea, coffee, silk, rubber). If you only play as GPs or big nations it won't have much of an impact, but for SPs and civs with colonies and kickstarting their industry, trying to get more rare goods for their pops or simply who want more of an RGO without blobbing more, it helps. The NFs aren't supposed to be all essential all the time.

Go through Italy from Austria, turn the peninsula into a single huge encirclement.
If you have naval equity or superiority by now, invade Sicily.

>>160629485

There's the "return allied core" CB for that but I don't see it used much, I need to check its requirements one day.

>>160629485
>This siphons pops that are colonial migrating to the states you choose.
So that means that it's pretty useless if no people want to get to the colonies, right?

>>160629485
>It affects ideology and pops with high CON are more likely to join and support movements.
Yeah, so this may be partially useful in the homeland, if you're not encouraging clerks but what's the point in the colonies?

>Because they usually produce gold or RGOs that aren't abundant in europe. The NF also boosts immigration to the treaty port by 25%.
Immigration to treaty ports is pointless as there are too many Chinks to make them into states and the minor increase to the RGO isn't worth soing literally anything else with the NF.

>They are meant for specific situations, like rare RGOs for europeans (tea, coffee, silk, rubber).

Yes. Pops need to choose to leave first.

>>160629829
>Yeah, so this may be partially useful in the homeland, if you're not encouraging clerks but what's the point in the colonies?
I already said. To influence ideology and stopping pops from joining movements.

>Immigration to treaty ports is pointless as there are too many Chinks to make them into states
Well if you are only looking at colonies as another state you can make then there will only be one useful NF.

>As a shit tier nation I will almost certainly focus on intellectuals and clerks.
Cool, don't use them then. Do what you think it's best, these NFs aren't supposed to be critical for your nation. They are an addition for people who want to influence their colonies and steer them in certain directions, which is something I wanted. You are free to ignore them as much as the "encourage production" NFs are ignored.

I don't know, I kind of enjoy some of the things they've changed. In EU4 you could ally France / Spain / England just like that and have them curb stomp enemies for you, just like that. Estates feel kind of mundane, true and it would be nice if there would be more pop-ups for stuff like gibs from burgers and more men from nobles or for more mana from anyone.

And why is this colony specific? That bears almost no use in the colonies as gassable nogs are a good thing, as opposed to Europe where you want to keep your people alive.

>>160628554
what was your strategy?

>>160630152
I know this is meme toer but you really need to stop Europeans making colonies into states. In real life Gibraltar doesn't have an MP in Britain and so is still a colony, in the game they make almost all of their territory states, including africa.

>>160630413
I get that the point of favours is to stop OPMs from being able to ally a GP and use them like a pet dog to subjugate more powerful nations, but I think it's an incredibly unwieldy system, and as there's very little to do internally in EU4, it's also a very tedious system as it makes you wait for very long periods of time between wars. They should have worked more with the existing relations system desu, or tried to improve the AI.

>>160630416

Spent the first 36 years of the game just getting my people half way literate, then encouraged craftsmen in my biggest states until the end of the game.

Ended up getting attacked by the Austrians and Dutch but I had the NGF on my side so I took Benin from the Dutch and East Galicia from the Austrians.

Then just chilled and watched the other countries meme each other. Comfy as fuck.

It does, especially in big colonies like India.

>why is this colony specific?
Because the NFs represent colonial management.

>>160630683
It's already a little more expensive to do it the more distant colonies are from your capital but I can't really do anything about it besides making it way more expensive. Sparsely populated or one-province states are more prone to this, I know, but again, the only solution is to forbid promotion or immigration or make creating states more expensive. For now I think it's better to simply leave it as is.

Honestly, I would just ban it. I can't think of a single example of a country making colonis states except France with Algeria and that was both due to the administration during WW2 and not in the timeframe of the game.

>>160629485
>Keep in mind pops still need to decide to colonially migrate

yeah that's the gay thing
not speaking historically here but just for fun/experimentation I found out how to raise chances of pops to migrate to colonies and got really cool high pop post-colonial settler states, but it was just a blanket thing, I mean, I couldn't put it in an NF, it was just a quality that all pops around the world had. I did make it specific to dutch pops though eventually since that's what I wanted to play as, but still, it's just a bit weird having an abnormally large amount of people leave to colonies through the whole game, I can't dynamically play with it, the colonial migration chance is just static.

With Russia it's all about timing when fighting Lithuania-Polish alliance, or the Commonwealth.

I declared war on them too early at first, around 1550, and lost maybe 8-9 provinces. I waited to about 1580 and Lithuania entered the war of the protestant league and seizing that opportunity I reconquered a lot of my land. From that point it was pretty easy to keep conquering them.

As Russia no one wants to be your friend until the late 16th century, keep that in mind. I didn't get any alliances until just around 1570-1580.

Also watch your military tech, being one or two behind will get you rekt.

Turks are both white and based. Anyone saying otherwise is an Ar*b.

>>160648105
probably not very. You just have to edit the country history text files

I'm a somewhat experienced EU4 and HoI4 player, should I give Victoria 2 a go or is that game not that worth it?

>>160647913

It's east of Japan, so technically, I'm still right.
pls guys i tried so hard

>>160646979
Kek, just got a free place in the sun CB against France, so I used it to take south vietnam, and the idiots sent 20 full transports straight into my fleet of monitors

>>160648334
Vicky 2 is better than Eu4 and Hoi4 once you figure it out.
t. have 1500 hours in Eu4 and only started playing Liquoria a couple weeks ago

>>160648904
>Liquoria
Why do you meme on a game you like? It'd be like an EU4 faggot saying he loves mana sim.

>>160649167
Because memes means love, anon

>>160649271
No, they don't, you're reducing the game to being solely about building one kins of factory, ridiculing it. A meme spread by streamgroupers and redditors to get people to play eu4 and hoi4 instead.

Is there anything else I should do before heading east?

>>160649526
French Indochina as it was irl. Take port arthur at some point alond with Sakhalin and The kurils. Prioritize the islands near you and indonesia is rightful japanese clay

>>160649526
Establish the japonic dynasty of china

>>160649526
Is Alaska still Russian? If so it may be easier to take it from them than the US.

Either way if it's a colony go NOW, you don't want to pay double infamy becauxe the Yanks memed it.

Sadly I dont have nearly enough infamy to spare so that will have to wait

>>160649721
Alaska is full meme at the moment

>>160649797
How the fuck did that even happen? Anyway, take Cali before it's 100% burger.

>>160649929

Sorry senpai, thats a colony too

I think my best shot into the Americas right now is the Panama canal, which has yet to be snatched up

>>160649994

not a colony* whoops

>>160649994
Do America have any colonies left? If so you have to act now, don't mke the mistake I did in failing to strike when they were worthless meme territories.

There's a golden window before Merica turns the midwest into states and before Britain leaves Canada, during which time you can just use them to destroy America for you and reap the rewards.

>>160650327

Sorry bro, its all states now

Only thing left is Hawaii

>>160650427
Take that now, in a decade it will cost twice the infamy.

>>160650538

Its still an independent nation, gotta wait otherwise its 22 infamy

>>160650603
If you feel brave enough to meme on Britain you should take Northern Australia whilst it's still a colony.

Man, I really resent not having played my Mexico game differently.

>>160650675

Actually northern Australia isnt a colony anymore

>>160650731
IT'S HAPPENING AGAIN
>australian representatives in the british house of commons
HPM really needs to end this meme.

>>160650794

>tfw your state achieved statehood at least 40 years early in game compared to real life

ebin

>>160650962
>not being from the 13 colonies, australia, pretoria, or western europe
What's it like not being white?

But it was worth, my monitors destroyed over 50 Burger+Taco ships
