How fares your empire, /gsg/?

This day in history, November 25th:
571 BC – Servius Tullius, king of Rome, celebrates a triumph for his victory over the Etruscans.
1795 – Partitions of Poland: Stanisław August Poniatowski, the last king of independent Poland, is forced to abdicate and is exiled to Russia.
1936 – In Berlin, Germany and Japan sign the Anti-Comintern Pact, agreeing to consult on measures "to safeguard their common interests" in the case of an unprovoked attack by the Soviet Union.

Alright lads, I made some extra events for the EIC. This is the event that happens if you barely do any expansion for some reason. This is the "easiest" version I guess. If the EIC accepts their terms, they lose some land for a buffer state. Next I'm going to make the event for the average conflict, which should be a bigger war, with a bigger cost for peace

I'm also thinking about removing the event for the Spanish to turn into Cuba because of Cuban Phillipines which is pretty stupid desu. I'm also going to move some Spanish pops to Cuba to simulate escape to that area

gnight lads

I'll try to restore the lore later on and add it to the pastebin

No clue. I downloaded the game yesterday and it worked but not much more than that. Everything within it was fucked. downloaded the complete mod from the OP just now and it actually seems like a game now. Though there's still a problem of me now having a clue and the game not being particularly balanced (the game uses money for most things which means that, as the UK, I can pretty much fund everything at max without really caring).

Tbh I just want to get good at it so I can play as Rhodesia and unite all of south Africa under glorious British-African rule.

Thats literally the easiest way. I aim for communism specifically so I can micro my industry. Do you even autism?

Anyways don't try to industrialize until your literacy is pretty decent, around 40%. Build factories corresponding to what you produce a lot of. Grain? Liquor factories. Coal? Even better, glass and cement. Fruit? Wine. Subsidize and watch yourself go bankrupt as the UK goes to war. Congratulations, you've industrialized.

That's the shit that makes italians and germans emigrate a little more

The rest is stopping chinese from flooding the world, animists from moving to the USA as soon as a civilized country colonize a strip of land and stopping the muslims from loving to emigrate and convert

That's basically all the changes

I guess you are right, it would make it more slow for some new world nations because chinamen, mudslimes and niggers won't flood the new world and the changes that make germans and italians move more might not compensate for that but how does that affect the old world?

I want to do a romuva pagan game where I convert to christianity after I have my core territory up, so I'm not too keen on raiding christians and lowering their moral authority.

>>123334891
>I remember in Vanilla you could just annex all of Austria. Shit was cash

You can still do that, I had Austria in my sphere and got a pop-up about Austria wanting to get annexed in like 1897.

Not sure if that only happens if Austria doesn't have Hungary. I don't think so, since Austria in my game had significant portions of Italy and bits of the Balkans, so it's probably due to "you have Austria in your sphere" rather than "you have Austria in your sphere and [X]"

There is literally nothing wrong with raiding Christians if you want to convert later, after a good 100 years nobody will remember your warmongering, and the damage you do will be healed a dozen times over.

Raid, expand, conquer your core territories and then take a Christian woman as a concubine so you can convert through the event window.

I have a few questions about DH, specifically Kaiserreich.

In terms of German strategy, should I put all of my IC into Consumer Goods and try to rush them down to ~5% to maximize my IC as quickly as possible, or do I want to put a minimum of like 20 IC or something into Production to try getting more INF divisions out?

Second, how does fleet comp work? In a trial game I did earlier, I played as Germany and the UK fucked my fleets up just by having like 50 ships to a fleet, with a bunch of mixed capitals. Is that a valid strategy? Does mixing carrier/capital ships not suck in DH like it does in HOI3?

You can't wait for 5% dissent to build stuff. Just get it down to where partisans aren't spawning everywhere.
