The idea of a Czechoslovak union only began appearing in the 1890s at the earliest. It would make as much sense as Yugoslavia having cores in 1836. If it's really that much of an issue just make a generic event about the Czechoslovak Legion which grants them cores at the turn of the century.

The only cultures tied are Czech and Slovak, which are already represented by their respective tags.

Ideally Czechoslovakia should get their cores during a great war with Austria-Hungary. The Czechoslovak Legion volunteered in Allied countries in an attempt to grant recognition from the international community, but a mechanic like that would be difficult to represent in Vic II.

So, I just did the thin in CK2 where a demon knocks someone up in your court and she gives birth to a demon child. So far, it hasn't done anything interesting.

Is this actually going to turn into some big event chain, where it assembles an army and brings forth the end times or some shit or is it just going to be a kid that gets some trait like "Satan's favorite bastard" that gives it +10 to everything?

I'm mostly curious if this'll somehow lead to my kingdom catching fire, cause if it is, I may as well marry the fucker off and let someone else deal with him.

>>183516881
Hey HPM, I've been thinking about the Turkmeneli flags you requested.

For republic flag I was wondering if it'd still be ok to use the Hatay flag, as it was historical, or if you think Turkmeneli is way too distinct for that. If you think the former, then I'll go with Hatay, if the latter, I may go with a modified version of this proposed Iraqi flag, which contains Turkmen symbolism in it.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Proposed_flag_of_Iraq_(Coalition_Provisional_Authority,_2004).svg

I wanted to use the actual flag of the Iraq Turkmen Front not as the republic flag but rather as the fascist flag, to drive the point of pure nationalism home. If you prefer this to be the republican one, just say the word and I'll come up with something better.

For communist I'll play around with the symbol of the Communist Party of Turkey, which I already use in the commie flag of Turkey. Don't worry, they will be quite distinct.

For monarchy I'm still thinking.

Can the CK2 nomad population system be applied to any of the other systems of government? Judging by the game files it didn't appear like there was any easy way of doing this, but if population is hardcoded to nomads could you at least make a new nomadic government and then just edit it until it was almost identical to feudalism? I can't think of any other way to add population to the game other than variables or doing something half-assed like taking a largely useless stat like piety and changing it to pops.

>>183518813
Oh that's what you mean by Strasserite. Well, yeah, in fact that's exactly why I made that Soviet flag, since in Hitlermod there will be a "Strasserite" ideology called National Populism and some nations will have flags to go with them. Although, in order to make the flags one has to have in mind what specifically it will mean for each nation. For Germany, we had the Black Front, for Soviet Russia, a comeback of Stalinism with even more focus on the nation. What form would such an ideology adopt in other nations? That's not an easy question to answer.

>>183519058
I will make sure it's distinct enough from the Ottoman and Republican Turkey one, don't worry.

The original Labour badge could be Strasserized too. This could go for Hitlermod too, I figure he'd go back to his roots and make common cause with Strasserites. UK would still be radically opposed to a NatSoc Germany for losing most of its empire so perhaps he'd avoid the fascist label as he did in our timeline post-WW2.

Wait what's Hitlermod? WW2 Kaiserreich for Vic2?

I'll bring it up to him. We actually had a discussion wether or not fascism would be popular in a post-war Britain. I said yes because all the revanchism from losing, he said no because of having been defeated by a nazi-fascist alliance. But having NatPop instead may be a good conciliatory solution to the dilemma.

>>183521498
>You mean the torch and the feather one?
Yeah, maybe replace the feather with a sword? Or a trident, more fitting for Britain?

I have several times. The game is boring as shit but its the best Ive got. When your civilization is maing 5x the food they need for every according to the game, then a famine hits, you have to call bullshit.

Srijem is the southern part of Vojvodina, and is Croatian.
