We don't have an official steamgroup. If anyone posts in the thread about any "official" or not steamgroup, 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, November 10th:
1202 – Fourth Crusade: Despite letters from Pope Innocent III forbidding it and threatening excommunication, Catholic crusaders begin a siege of the Catholic city of Zara
1444 – Battle of Varna: The crusading forces of King Władysław III of Poland are defeated by the Turks under Sultan Murad II and Władysław is killed
1580 – After a three-day siege, the English Army beheads over 600 Papal soldiers and civilians at Dún an Óir, Ireland
1975 – United Nations Resolution 3379: United Nations General Assembly approves a resolution equating Zionism with racism (the resolution is repealed by Resolution 4686 in 1991)

Why not create some cultural events for EU4 for both groups and specific cultures but make them more impactful/out there and less historically generic, for flavor? Eg, some for Nords where they find some old ass runestones or something, for South Slavs Slavicizing Turkish foods when conquring Turkish provinces or being released from Turkish influence and other shit like that.

Conquer Slovakia and Bohemia, get this sweet border piece, continue to sphere the balkans.
fight the lowlands, conquer belgium with the netherlands, later betray them.
continue against france to get elass lothringen, fight russia for lithuania.
fought the ottomans for bulgaria.
the sick man died and fought them again for sphere and puppet
manage to unite yugoslavia and romania, focused on colonisation mostly after that.
got the united provincec and bundelkhand from england.
Saw how much opium i was producing and continued to conquer siam and vietnam.
grew stong enough, annexed denmark, burgundy and picardie.
not to mention that i cheated, but only with events, not with changeowner, its not fun that way

Since you lack pops from immigration, just take Cuba, Haiti and Puerto Rico and build the canal before you drop back from GP
If you take Grão-Pará, be sure to either take Mato Grosso or Maranhão as well. A free. Slowly balkanize them when you have 7.5 infamy to spare too.

I swear I'm trying to raise up my militancy and cons to pass on reforms, but I haven't been able to pass any yet. I had to prestige whore to avoid the US sphering Ecuador and Venezuela and triggering that event that liberates them if they are your puppets.

I totally forgot about Guyana, although I'll start with the Dutch and French first, since the Brits are too strong now.

Any suggestions to improve immigration to my country or the amount of reforms I can pass? Mexico and the US seem to be taking most of the cake.

Playing as a tribal norse dude, already got a decently sized kingdom of Sweden.

Now I vassalized a bunch of single county dudes next to me which put me over the vassal limit. So I'm thinking I'm really clever and simply created two duchies, thinking that this would decrease my vassal count.

Which it did, but somehow only by two while at the same time I lost a bunch of vassal limit in total.

Is creating duchies as a tribal state actually harmful for me until I'm at feudalism?

FYI, forming the FRCA doesn't switch your country to them, it just releases them as one country for a more powerful ally. Not sure if you knew or not.

Also, don't blob into Peru more. Take all of Guyana and Grao-Para. Just be the ebin free-market whore and buy all resources you lack from other countries lad.

Yeah, I know. Part of my concern is that they may be a competitor for those sweet immigrants.

>Also, don't blob into Peru more. Take all of Guyana and Grao-Para. Just be the ebin free-market whore and buy all resources you lack from other countries lad.

God I hate gavelkind so much. Creating new titles will make everything even worse, even though you'd think the other sons would inherit a duchy they will instead inherit the duchy, all the counties in it and random counties on top of it.

This is truly the worst succession law there is. Everytime you switch heirs you lose 2/3 of your powerbase.

You need a higher war score to annex. If you need more than 100% war score, then it's impossible to do it in a single war.

I'm just trying to annex Sakhalin. Just found out that I can annex Sakhalin if I also choose to annex Deren, which has a strait connection with it. Are there some conditions that need to be met before you can core island provinces?

What the fuck? This is like saying the Dutch East Indies couldn't exist because they were too far away from the Netherlands to become as integral a province as Amsterdam. Why call it a "core" when at this point it's just "paper mana cost to conquer a province" and every province you take will become a core on like 3 years max?

Thanks a whole lot, Wiz

I did it in mixed mod aka "Germany is even more OP then normal". I disbanded my colonial militia Used everything on getting rid of dissent built all my infantry with heavy arty. I didnt spend at all on aircraft. I belive the trick is to rush to help belgium those forests on river are crucial to holding out. Also the brits showing up is very helpful I almost didnt hold in fact Germany punched through the maginot line at one point at the very begging and I almost didnt take it back. By 44 it was a straight stalemate and I switched to building IC and nuclear reactors since I was running low on manpower. Then the SU invaded the germans didnt move a single division to stop them until they took Berlin I barely was able to reach the rheine before the commies showed up. Also neither America or Italy joined the war.
