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, December 1st:

1918 – The Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes is proclaimed.
1941 – World War II: Emperor Hirohito of Japan gives the final approval to initiate war against the United States.

Today it's our sad duty to inform you that it has been decided to cancel the game "East vs West". We at Paradox Interactive have the utmost respect for BL Logic and this is not a decision that has been taken lightly—quite the contrary—but ultimately we are a publisher and our actions and decisions must reflect that.

As the project has been severly delayed we dont think that open beta / early acccess could, within our desired timeline, meet the set criteria.

It has been a journey of ups and downs since we started the development of East Vs West back in May 2011. We wish each other nothing but the best with future endeavors.

We also would like to thank the developers for their hard work and their tremendous effort, as well as the fans for their long term commitment and their never ending support.
Please note that any comments about this happening due to HOI4 will be considered as trolling, and acted upon as such!
(this assumption is just plain silly. I won't even bother with going into more details about that)

>EvW announced in Oct 2012, cancelled March 2014 this breaks down to 29 months from announcement to cancellation all while being restricted by an NDA which paradox had to approve whenever the devs said anything about the game

if HOI4 does not get released in 6 more months I will be severely disappointed and pissed off beyond all limits.

It does nothing, you can either obtain a personal union by chance or claim the throne if you have a royal marriage and they have a low legitimacy and prestige, once you claim the throne, you can declare war with claim the throne casus belli, and can force a personal union, gaining an ally that will always assist you and free cores and accepted cultures upon inheritance.

They didn't present the source on the map, though it was pretty easy to find if you google "1937 alternate history map europe" which is most likely what they did minus the "alternate"

Anyone tried the muv luv mod? Unfortunately, it's only in moonrunes, but someone plans on translating it when the VN gets released in English

To install: Download the DH files in order from top to bottom. But download the "Map" file before the final patch.

Someone managed to port it to 1.04 on the paradox forum

www.mediafire.com/folder/yg3l98jm1lain/MuvLuv_1.04

Copy the files to Darkest Hour/mods/muv luv mod/ db and its good to go.

Easy as piss

When you improve relations or get improved upon, you get half of what you send.
(makes cozying up easy)

You can get favors easy by giving provinces away that you don't want now and then they'll join literally all your wars because the x-year penalty for offensive wars is gone

You can tell what the AI wants easier and its easier to maneuver politically

Only problem is rebels as you can see>>123986893

But if you're human that's almost no issue
Also you can deal with estates better than the ai I bet

How can you justify the same points being used for: Naval technology, peace deals, converting culture, reducing the nations war weariness and having too many allies? Or the same points being used to supress rebels, scorch the earth, kill natives, raise taxes during a war and upgrade your cannons?

Especially this "11k" bullshit. I guess it makes sense for Crusader Kings but here? The smallest unit possible is 1000 men. Just let it say "11" and drop the "k" WE GET IT, IT'S ELEVEN THOUSAND, NOT JUST ELEVEN.
