So /gsg/ i got a question. I've been playing Victoria 2, trying to learn it and figure out how it works. Something i notice is that, bizarrely enough, the Balkans rarely actually Balkanize (might be my personal experience after 6 games IDK). Pic related is my attempt at forcing said empire breakups. It cost me practically everything i had and i hit BB twice and had to give up on all of my colonies to reduce infamy down low enough to keep going. I've read that this a base game problem so im looking into mods. What mod is better for a more dynamic world? HPM or PDM?

So ive been playing EU 4 for the first time. Ive played EU3 and pretty much every other paracocks title of the past few years.
I have a few questions though and im a useless lazy fuck so im gonna ask rather than google.
Theres not way to get other people to join the HRE if youre emporer, right? I mean other than taking their shit, coring it and manually adding them to the empire.
How does trade even work? Merchants seem to do fucking nothing if i put them somewhere
Why the fuck did they rework overexpansion? fucking kikes
>>171934073
thanks
I'll be honest, the shitposting in this general and pointless bumps make this place look so bad I don't even want to post my games here. I'd rather watch this place die and ask questions I need answered. A general should be healthy and self sustaining, not suffering on with shitty life support.

>>171934242
>Theres not way to get other people to join the HRE if youre emporer, right? I mean other than taking their shit, coring it and manually adding them to the empire.
I think there's a -1000 modifier for adding provinces as AI if the emperor is a player.
>How does trade even work? Merchants seem to do fucking nothing if i put them somewhere
Merchants are used to collect or steer trade.
If you put merchants in inland trade nodes they also add caravan power.
Trade nodes can go a number of ways.
For example Ragusa can go to Wien, Venice and Genoa.
If no one steers trade with a merchant there they'll get pulled towards the trade capitals of the ones who have trade power there.
If only 1 steer trades there, everything goes to the node that one steers the trade to.
A merchant that steers trade adds trade value to the steered trade depending on your trade steering modifier.
>Why the fuck did they rework overexpansion? fucking kikes
because you core things manually instead of waiting 50 years

Just not sure where to go from here. Maybe try and stay in GPs and watch how bad North America gets.
Apparently one of the holy sites I need for the fylkirate has been turned into an mosque due to the now imprisoned owner being of the sunni in my mostly germanic kingdom. His son, the current title holder is also moslem. Should I just plot to kill them? The father can be used in a blot, the son not so much...

The next generation is shaping up to be interesting. I'm hoping some battlefield shenanigans help them turn their rivalry into a perfectly heterosexual friendship before Leon takes the throne. He'll be a good emperor unless he tries to take Sicily out of Konstantinos' hands, in which case he'll be a dead emperor.
Roaches have had this mission since the start of the game and done fuck all with it.

I'm playing Japan in EU4, I've annexed maybe a third of the country, and pretty much all of the rest has declared a "war of indepence" that I can't possibly win because of a combination of crippling debt, and much lower manpower and force limit than the revolting vassals.
So I decide to just give in to their demands and give them independence. Except they don't want independence. It literally says "war for independence", but it gives -1000 to their willingness to accept peace if I add it to the deal.
Why on earth would they declare a war of independence if they don't want independence?

>>171954772
explain what exactly?
if you just want to do some basic combat load a scenario like Desert Fox (no naval) or Southern Conquests (has naval). That will get you used to hoi3 combat and you dont have to fuck with the OOB at all.
for more advanced concepts i suggest watching youtube of players doing germany/italy/etc, watch them for a few hours and then play yourself. If all you do is watch youtube you'll never get better.
You'll especially want to know how to setup the OOB after doing the scenarios so watch one of the OOB tutorials, there's a couple good ones.
I do not see how this is possible, the jews exist only in my court, none of my vassals, or their vassals, or anywhere else but Wessex, what do they hope to achieve in sussex. Drunken peasants I say

After the introduction of the Hangeul language by King Sejong (which was made in order to facilitate the gains of literacy by the population, since chinese characters were especially difficult, the literacy skyrocketed.
Yangban and Jung-in (administrators and bureaucrats ) HAD to be literate in Korea, as was the law and requirements at the time. Aditionally, most of the commoners were also literate.
According to Shikata Hiroshi (四方博), a professor at Keijō Imperial University during 1940s the literacy rates were as follows:
>Joseon Period I (1690-): 9.2% yangban, 53.7% commoner, 37.1% slave
>Joseon Period II (1727-1739): 18.7% yangban, 54.6% commoner, 26.6% slave
>Joseon Period III (1783,86,89): 37.5% yangban, 57.5% commoner, 5.0% slave
>Joseon Period IV (1858-1897): 70.3% yangban, 28.2% commoner, 1.5% slave
It's safe to assume, that a minimum of 70.3% (altough commoners were often literate as well) were literate. Why the hell does HPM put it at 3%?

My daughters' lives haven't gone as charmingly as my sons'. CK2+ doesn't allow matrilineal marriages until you pass some laws pushing womens' equality/rights, so they got to go on vacations with foreign men instead.
Maria had a single daughter, took on syphillis from some other man, became depressed over her mistakes and died in the theme of Trebizond.
Phyllis lived in the kingdom of the Magyars and lived happily with husband and one son until she had a stillborn baby, got depressed, and died of pneumonia.
And now my hot lesbian daughter Konstantine has returned from her adventure in Ireland, her husband dead of pneumonia and her 7 year old son murdered immediately afterward by her own king, who didn't even try to hide his involvement.
Not depressed at all though, she's a trooper. I don't think I'll be marrying her off again, though there isn't much for her to do in court but get into lesbian trouble.

No it isn't. Research points are though, so if HPM fixed Korean literacy he should probably put a pretty hefty malus to research points too.

They're true, laddo. East Asians in general had proper writing systems for a long time but Korea simplified it so everyone could learn it. They essentially did what Mao did to Chinese in the 17th century.

Does anybody know how the Claim Leadership of Islam CB in MEIOU functions? It should be self-explanatory, but it just says to win a war while capturing the enemy capital with 80% warscore and wait. I waited for five fucking years after I whipped the Mamluks' boypucci and nothing happened.
The CB doesn't even explain what you get for successfully winning, so I don't know what I'm waiting for. I just want to know if it was worthwhile.
And at long last, the reign of my beloved basileios-kun is over. He died peacefully in his sleep at 62 years. He saved me from certain death at the hands of 24000 infidels the very year I became duke of Sicily, and I've served him loyally ever since as proconsul, marshal, majordomo, and completely heterosexual oil wrestling partner ever since. During his reign he fought the arab sultanates at the height of their power, won holy wars for God and pushed our borders closer to their former glory, put the scheming dukes of the empire in their place, and reminded the world that the light of Rome still burns.
Prince Leon has ascended to the throne without issue and he has all the makings of a good emperor... but there's a problem. My son Konstantinos is 29 years old and still hasn't come back home from Constantinople, still leading armies and serving in the imperial bodyguard. I'd hoped that, being so alike in so many ways, he and the former prince would have become friends by now, but their rivalry is as strong as ever. My son and heir is in the court and employ of an emperor who hates his fucking guts.
On the flip side, Leon has produced no son and heir. As the duke of a united Sicily, I'm the most powerful vassal of the realm, and next in line for the throne unless Leon manages to produce a son. The proverbial shit is about to hit the fan in the next few months. I don't know whether to stay loyal to my liege's descendants and hope my son has the good sense to get the fuck back home in a hurry, or cross the Rubicon now and let the dice fly.

Two options are available if I want to secure my son's safety in the imperial court. One involves the princess Melissa, born in the purple like her brother and what the kids these days call, "a bad bitch." She's a greater warrior than her brother and possibly an even more capable and ambitious ruler, and I've started talking to some discontented dukes about supporting her claim.
If that doesn't work out, she's also on board with the secret pact to murder the new emperor. If this goes through without a hitch, I'll rise to the throne and continue the work of Basileios-kun myself, and my heir will be safe and back in my hands.
All of this is hypothetical and I'd rather not follow through on any of this. I pray God will give Leon the sense not to fuck with my heir.

So I just downloaded conclave and I want to know how can I weaken the council power? It only seems like the only thing you can do is delay the rise of their power. This is a concern for me because I'm playing as a duke who just took over a prince-bishopric county and I want to set it to the proper holding type, but can't because I'd need to revoke the title of the guy who holds the castle holding of the province, and I can't do that because the council won't let me.

How TF did Milan end up there
I've never played 3 but that doesn't seem right
Sicily remains loyal to the new Basileus, who's been an amenable liege so far. Ten years have passed since our first holy war against the Aghlabids, and shortly after the truce the Doux mustered the armies of a united, christian Sicily and sailed into Africa to truly cement his place in history.
Our army numbered 11000 strong and cost a shocking amount of gold in upkeep, draining our treasury to nearly nothing over the course of the war. The men found difficulty crossing the unfamiliar desert terrain, but the Sultan's forces were weakened after a schism war with neighboring Shia muslims, numbering just 7500 at full muster.
Now I finally have a use for my surviving gay daughter. I've invited an equally gay man to court, and married the two to ensure they won't have kids. I wish my son would come the fuck back home from Constantinople and govern the Theme of Tripolitana for me, but gay Phillipos will have to do for now. When he dies childless, Konstantinos will rule here.

I'm playing ck2 now, but all the sudden when joining one of those societies my character changes into some kind of sick looking weirdo with black eyes (joined the hermetic society).

Vicky 2.
>>171988773
Mostly makes the game less railroaded and adds some flavour events for some nations.
In vanilla, Austria would always get Anschlussed, Czechoslovakia would always fold to Germany and Poland would never cede Danzig.
I've added event chains to accommodate for early and late war in Europe; ex. Germany will demand Alsace-Lorraine if they get Danzig, or Germany and the Soviets might come into conflict over Poland if the Molotov-Ribbentrop pact isn't signed.
>>171988038
If I could, I would help you with adding some events for releasing Québec as an puppet if Canada falls to a non-American fascist nation under Maurice Duplessis

>>171989406
I hope there's no possibility of them getting A-L, France simply wouldn't have given them it.
You should make a pastebin that says this sort of thing.
You should also add an event for a split between Italy and Germany, in real life, as I'm sure you know, Mussolini didn't support the Anschluss. As Germany I want a decision to demand Istria and Sudtirol from Italy and generally just shit all over Mussolini. It's not like they helped the Axis in real life.
>>171989794
probably unrelated but did you know that every time you reload a ck2 save your game rules are set to default?
>>171987964
It's accurate though. Huge population with good education and quick expansion to valued areas. 2nd largest economy up until less than a decade ago. They'd be the most powerful if they could've gotten colonies like indonesia early on when shit like SEA oil fuelled a third of the world

>>171989465

>>171989719
Even if that were true, it would probably be next on Hitler's agenda, as a historically German territory.
>>171990073
There's like a 5% chance of France giving in, it's pretty much only there to make sure WW2 starts.
Also, if Germany goes to war over Austria, Italy can support the Allies.

>>171992051
France is ridiculed for centuries to come and WW2 probably ends up broken until USSR goes on Germans.
>>171991797
>>171992051
Haven't added anything for that, some quick math says that there's less than 1% chance that Germany would get all of their demands.
>>171992178
Will you add events for a Krauto-Italian split?
Mussolini must pay for costing Germany WW2.
>>171992178
I don't think Germany would ask France for A-L, even Hitler knew he couldn't bully France and Britain, which is why he never asked for Namibia or A-L in real life.
I think he'd demand former German territories from Denmark and Eupen-Malmedy from Belgium.

Asking for Namibia in the first place, regardless of the situation, is a bit of a stretch. A-L would of course been impossible, agree with the Belgium and Denmark territory. Haven't seen that in any mods so far.
Also, as a general note regarding Poland, I'm pretty sure if you coup it before WWII starts you can ask for them to give back territory and they'll do it.
>>171993102
Based, though I doubt the allies would befriend fascist Mussolini.
Have you done anything about Spain? When the civil war stars you should be able to choose to play as either the CNT, Franco, Carlists, or standard non commie republicans, in the game you can only continue as Rep Spain.

>>171992629
>In November 1937, Ribbentrop was placed in a highly embarrassing situation, when his forceful advocacy of the return of the former German colonies led the British Foreign Secretary Anthony Eden and the French Foreign Minister Yvon Delbos to offer to open talks on returning the former German colonies, in return for which the Germans would make binding commitments to respect their borders in central and eastern Europe. Since Hitler was not interested in obtaining the former colonies, especially if the price was a brake on expansion into eastern Europe, Ribbentrop was forced to turn down the Anglo-French offer that he had largely brought about.[84] Immediately after turning down the Anglo-French offer on colonial restoration, Ribbentrop, for reasons of pure malice, ordered the Reichskolonialbund to increase the agitation for the former German colonies, a move that exasperated both the Foreign Office and the Quai d'Orsay

>>171993618
Schirach called Ribbentrop "one of the greatest fools in foregin policy"
It's always been very interesting to me how they started to throw each other under the table, even more so after the war ended. One of the reason we lost was this backstabbing 24/7.
>>171994123
Ribbentrop was a cuck, he wanted some BBC for his wife
>>171994123
Hitler literally sent him there with orders to bully UK into giving colonies back so he could have easier time in Yurop later on. He didnt expect Ribbentrop to work his ass so much Brits actually listened to him. Also he was a retard.
Ribbentrop had a habit of summoning tailors from the best British firms, making them wait for hours, then sending them away without seeing him but with instructions to return the next day, only to repeat the process. This did immense damage to his reputation in British high society, as London's tailors retaliated by telling all their well-off clients that Ribbentrop was impossible to deal with.[28] In an interview, his secretary Reinhard Spitzy stated "He [Ribbentrop] behaved very stupidly and very pompously and the British don't like pompous people."[28] In the same interview, Spitzy called Ribbentrop "pompous, conceited and not too intelligent", and stated he was an utterly insufferable man to work for.[28]
In addition, Ribbentrop chose to spend as little time as possible in London in order to stay close to Hitler, which irritated the British Foreign Office immensely, as Ribbentrop's frequent absences prevented the handling of many routine diplomatic matters.[67] (Punch referred to him as the "Wandering Aryan" for his frequent trips home.)[68] As Ribbentrop alienated more and more people in Britain, Göring warned Hitler that Ribbentrop was a "stupid ass".[28] Hitler dismissed Göring's concerns: "[b]ut after all, he knows quite a lot of important people in England." This remark led Göring to reply "Mein Führer, that may be right, but the bad thing is, they know him."[28]

Pretty sure tag switching through events in HoI3 is impossible, but you can always use the console.
Will make an event to put Carlists in power if the Comunion Tradicionalista gets into power, and will add an event for a victorious Republican Spain to decide to go Socialist, moderate, etc.

The UI is shit, the keyboard shortcuts are either nonexistent or problematic (pause break is just hard to do, if you change it to space you can't put spaces when renaming units), there are too few provinces and doomstacks are king. HoI3's simulation of war is much more accurate, in my opinion, so I'd prefer politics to be added to it to make it on par with DH's politics.
>>171995641
ok thanks
>>171996195
DH has some really neat stuff, some of the techs are superior. The peace system is pretty much 6 million times as good as the one in HoI3, better politics, more flavour andfloatplanes.
>>171996428
The war is just cancer, though. There are not enough provinces, there's no OoB. Simply add decent peace mechanics to HoI3 and it beats DH in every way.

Yes, it is better but there things about HoI3 that are truly shit.
Why are there no motorized art/at brigades in vanilla, how come I have to build SPA if I don't want to slow my armor division down?
Why can I not select my own supply dump? How come Hamhung is a supply dump but Dalian isn't even though the High Command for Korea and China is situated there.
Why do only AA weaponry on ships upgrade? Where are the floatplanes?
Why can't I manually select the provinces I want my resupply to go through?
Why does the UK never defend their fucking country?
Why is the second Sino-Japan war complete shit and ends within a few months?
Why does Germany never really build any subs?
Why can I select runway catering as a mission for my STRAT bombers even though you seem to be unable to destroy planes on the ground, which is kind of the point of this mission.
Why are the naval mechanics so strange random? A 1938 battlecruiser with superior speed and engines can't chase down and get into range of an escort or light carrier that is rusty, old and slower?
Why is the port strike mission complete dogshit until 45?
There is more but I think that's enough for now. Still enjoy Hearts of Iron 3 a lot but it could be so much better.

>>172019753
Okay let me lay it out for you
As soon as Germany was formed they wanted more colonies, but Bismarck was like no that'll upset the balance of power
Then Wilhelm comes along with the 'Germany's time in the sun' approach demanding colonies and protectorates, whose aggression leads to ww1
Ww2 was about restoring german pride and honour, so you can see colonies would be a big thing as Germany didn't have that honour properly before. And not just german Africa, but the Americas, Indies and India
>>172020173
Don't play with mods until you finish a game

Why do you think I like him? Wilhelm is the sole reason why the Balkan war becomes a world war, thus ultimately his fault that we lost the sun
In the east, Basileus Leon has won a great victory for God and the empire with the help of our dowry, taking Jerusalem out of the hands of the infidels. In response, the Caliph of the Shiias, Muzaffaraddin, initiated the age of Jihad against all christendom.
But Sicily's concern was in the west. After the death of Nizam I and the nullification of the recent truce agreement, my youngest son Ioulianos led our 3rd holy war against the Aghlabids and killed the uncrowned and unready Hafiz in battle before securing Nafusa for my heir Konstantinos to govern. Now a toddler, Nizam II, is propped up on the throne of the Aghlabids, and they will never be a threat to Sicily again.
What we didn't know was that during all of this, a berber chieftain named Abdul had risen up in rebellion against the decadence of the Tulunids of Egypt, leaving the road to Alexandria weakened and ripe for conquest through more holy wars. Our armies are at less than full strength after the war for Nafusa, but our fleet makes for fast conquest along the coast, and we will strike while the iron is hot. God wills it.

With all the wars constantly dragging Basileus Leon away from court, and possibly due to some defect of his or the Basilissa Alexeia's, I remain next in succession for the empire. My dynasty has no claim to the throne, but my son is wedded to a princess of imperial blood. Our famous conquests across the African coast have left my small family barely able to manage our realm, and having an imperial administration would secure our dominion here forever.
Once again, thoughts of treason come to mind. If my conspirators across the empire fail me, I will send my personal assassin to do the dark deed. The die is cast, may God have mercy on my soul.
