How fares your empire, /gsg/?

This day in history, March 15th:
44 BC – Julius Caesar, Dictator of the Roman Republic, is stabbed to death by Marcus Junius Brutus, Gaius Cassius Longinus, Decimus Junius Brutus and several other Roman senators on the Ides of March.
221 – Liu Bei, a Chinese warlord and member of the Han royal house, declares himself emperor of Shu Han and claims his legitimate succession to the Han dynasty.
493 – Odoacer, the first barbarian King of Italy after the fall of the Western Roman Empire, is slain by Theoderic the Great, king of the Ostrogoths, while the two kings were feasting together.

Actually that's a decent idea - you eat the Overseas Territories, socialist government lets you accept Black Anglos and then afterwards Black Anglo African countries can also start the move towards Commonwealth integration (possibly with a lot of anger back home/only if they're sphered or puppets).

India is basically an impossibility though, they haven't governed themselves poorly enough to want the British back. Irish are similarly a no-go.

Should Afrikaans be accepted if you manage to integrate South Africa? I don't think they'd be happy about the Brits being back.

I wanted to thank everyone in this community for being so open and kind - it's not an uncommon sight to see a post in this general with same-sex couples, and no one really seems to care. As a member of the LGBTQ community, person in an interracial relationship, and gamer, it's really awesome to see.

Also a huge shout out to Paradox for creating a game that respects diversity, and allows players to be who they are. I remember never being able to marry who I wanted in CK1, and that really bummed me out.

I think we also take for granted the small things in the game, like the interracial relationship between Ivar-Snake-In-The-Eye and Al-Mansur, the humanity that is afforded to the Mongols (which a lot of white people don't get), and being able to customize your gender with things typically associated with the opposite sex (my man is wearing ear rings, haha). This game subtly and strongly deconstructs a lot of social norms that many games simply uphold without a second thought.

I think all of this really lines up with the patient, community-focused messaging of the game and I love it. Thanks to all <3

Of course not. If this whole project happened, which it never would, in the globalist commie kike world the one unifying factor would be the English language.

Is Russia currently in a war (assuming you're in their SoI)?
>>
>>135247631
It's HPM, so obviously not. They're still the largest producer though, probably all the artisans.
>>
>>135247523
Why isn't it profitable? If you have enough wheat then throughput is the problem, in which case you need to focus on Techs that increase it.
>>
>>135247886
It says "6.78 of 32.22 liquor didn't get sold yesterday".
>>
>>135248281

So basically your factories are not efficient enough to produce Liqour compared to other countries in the sphere you are in
>>
>>135247697
Ah, I've never played with HPM so I don't really know how it works

>>135248372
What do you mean efficient? I thought every good sold at the same price?

Also, I seem to be importing 12 units of liquor, even though I produce all that my country needs.

>>
>>135248471
Well this sounds pretty fucky.

First off, if you're subsidising that factory stop doing that right now, contrary to popular believe factories will not perpetually hire people, they will only hire people who make their profit peak, so all the craftsmen producing the 6.78 unsold liqour will be fired. Unless you want to industrialise for the sake of industrialising/score in which caepse keep subsidising it.

As for why you're importing liqour I honestly have no idea, that shouldn't be happening whilst you're still dumping liqour in the ocean.

>>135249320
The craftsmen being employed is worth the subsidies though, right?
I've also heard other people say they import goods when they produce all they need in their own country, with machine parts for example.
>>
>>135249394
who doesn't :^)
>>
>>135249423

Yes, if you can fix the problem shortly through railroads/better techs, otherwise it's just a vicious circle where more and more craftsmen get employed due to subsidies until your economy implodes
>>
>>135249423
>The craftsmen being employed is worth the subsidies though, right?
You're not actually giving them subsidies, you're just saying "when this goes to shit we'll supply you" so the factory hires as many people as possible, where as without subsides they'll only hire the amount of people to meet international demand.
So, in short, it is worth it, as it's costing you no money and you get more industry points.

>I've also heard other people say they import goods when they produce all they need in their own country, with machine parts for example.
Really not sure about it, from what I understand about the game mechanics that shouldn't be the case.

Coal is great, get some glass factories, build them in areas you have coal.

Coal is also pretty damn valuable to export as well, whilst it won't be worth anything whilst you're in a sphere (Spherelings can not tariff their master, so any coal Russia buys from you will be dirt cheap) some techs from the Metallurgy tab, partidularly clean coal and clean iron will really help you mine more coal.

After installing HPM, game no longer launches in windowed mode. Checked my settings.txt again just to make sure. I think I goofed with installation.

>>135250793
Don't tarrifs only affect imports, not exports? It would be cool if they affected exports so you wouldn't give away all your tanks to your enemies, and if you do, they pay dearly.
Are furniture factories good?
>>
>>135250902

Did you check the settings.txt in the HPM folder as well? Also at least for me just having "Windowed" selected in-game isn't enough, also need to disable fullscreen in the settings file
>>
>>135250994
Tariffs do affect exports, but not to your sphere master, that's the point of sphering, cheaper shit, also why Brazil is a good sphereling.

Furniture factories are okay, you need timber and sawmills to really make them profitable though.

/gsg/ I've been reading about economy/industrialization in Vic2 and most of the guides I've come across are clearly written for people with more understanding. Is there a discussing of these issues geared for knuckle-dragging mouth-breathers that are used to playing hex-and-counter wargames?
>>
>>135265772
Economy: put your education slider at maximum, army and navy sliders at 20% and admin slider at whatever you can afford. Tax your people enough to not lose money, if that's not enough use tariffs.

Industrialization: Build railroads and liquor factories. Liquor is always profitable so it's a great way to jumpstart your industry. Later you should experiment with different goods and chains of factories as they give you higher throughput.

That's about how I'd sum it up really.
>>
>>135265772
Encourage intellectuals to 4% unless you play prussia then craftsman after you hit 20% lit and clerks after 50% lit. Build liquor factories
>>
>>135265974

But tax the lower classes more, as my rich capitalists need money to invest in the economy? I should've paid more attention when I was reading the Chartist Papers.
>>
>>135266197

Early game yeah.

Late game they're rolling in money so you want to tax them and nobody else - your poor pops are happy, everyone's assimilating as fast as can be expected, the excess cash is buying more factory goods and making everyone richer, blah blah blah.
>>
>>135266197
Early game you're gonna tax everyone, because early game laissez faire fucking sucks and you pretty much need to build shit yourself.
Later in the game yeah, I like to tax the lower class the most and the upper the least, but I don't go overboard with differences. I will tax the rich at 30%, mid at 50% and lower at 60% for example.
>>
>>135266197
Capitalists are shitters.

Just tax everyone and build your own stuff. You know better than the capitalists what you want and need.
>>
>>135266428
Capitalists are still great for building railroads and upgrading factories in the mid and late game.

Weird game so far. NGF got destroyed early on and lost Silesia, Lubeck and Holstein but somehow held onto Neuchatel, which you can see in the screenshot. Austria grabbed silesia but lost it to NGF patriots. They then got bashed so hard they turned into a democracy.
>>
>>135266550

Grab all the tax efficiency techs, throw interventionism on, and tax capitalists at 100%.

They'll still make tons of dosh and build railroads all over the country, and you can run your entire government off rich taxes.

You can check the amount of money your rich strata has in the pop screen, I had games where those 0.5% of Capitalists had like 20-30 million dosh among them.

Commies wouldn't tax the rich with a low-intervention market, they'd just shoot the rich.

It's essentially what a bank is, a way of taking money off people who won't spend it to give it to other people who will and taking the profit for yourself.

The problem comes when taking the profit is more important than keeping the money flowing.

then someone else told me they get no penalty as long as they have more points now this shit happens
