Reminder that SteIIaris has its own general and discussion of the game doesn't go here. Thank you.
We don't have an official steam or discord group. If anyone posts in the thread about any "official" or not steam or discord groups, 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.

In December of 1924, after almost three years of taxing work, every French army, colonial and home, has been fully refitted with modern equipment and support personnel. The task was immense, but the French General Staff can now pat themselves on the back: they have helped to give France the indisputably most advanced army in the world.
Each army is comprised of 24,000 infantry, 6000 airborne support personnel, 9000 tank and 9000 artillery support personnel, and 3000 special engineering personnel. The General Staff is confident that, while almost numbingly expensive to maintain, France's armies are now once again the ideal standard, perhaps for the first time since the days of Lyautey's reforms in the mid-1800s.
The battle for military funding is not yet over--Napoleon V is now haranguing Maurras and the Assembly both to ensure that he has sufficient funding for a "significant naval expansion" to help challenge British dominion of the seas--but, for now, everyone can take a well-deserved break.And me too, shit goddamn. That was taxing as hell, I barely got through 2 3/4 years this whole fucking day.
NOTHING CAN STOP THIS TEUTONIC ADVANCE

>>143502569
The starting rulers on some indian nations have fucking insane stats. Without a starting tech penalty, they'll keep up much longer. Also some of the conditions are basically based on wealth, and a larger indian nation can easily have the biggest trade node for instance. So they'll have an easy time getting the new tech stuff spread to them.

If you don't know what ASMR is it's basically that feeling you get when you pee on a cold day and you shiver, excspt brought on by sounds. Whispering with lip smacking can do it, rqin, tapping, lots of things.
The problem is there is this big history channel for ASMR, with this french person whsipering seductively about history, which would be great, but he's male. And getting tingles from a man would be GAY

>>143510069
Other names used are the Republic of China-Nanjing, China-Nanjing, or New China.
google it matey
or
use ur imagination.
>>143510354
My imagination isn't helpful, as its in english. Rep China-Nanjing and the other variants are too WW1/WW2 era specific, thats why I didn't use them.
New China isn't quite right for the EU4 map. It translates to Shin Chūgoku in google, I might use that. Also considering Chūgoku Pekin (China-Beijing)
>>143510654
If you're going by localized names rename Manchuria to Manshū and Vietnam, Annam
>>143510654
Land of the fallen sun?
>>143510995
I might do that for Annam. I'm going to rename the Malaysia area Syonan-to, so the only ones I need to figure out are the Beijing and Canton centered client states.
Whats the equivalent of Manchuoko that might be used for those two areas?

Alright I have been putting this off for the entire time you've been doing this, over a month now, atleast. I am really fucking annoyed by this meme. Victoria 2 is a great game, by far the greatest grand strategy of all time, in no other game can you manage an economy, your pops, your diplomacy, your taxes, your army and your sphere of influence at the same time. Victoria 2 takes every element of every game and makes it great. Your pathetic fucking mana/dynasty/OoB/insert single issue game simply can't compete. I've tried playing them, believe me. They are pathetic. You play them and you only have to manage one, maybe, two things. Hah, what is this mess? It's a botched job. A complete write off. And sure, if you like that sort of purile simplistic shit then more power too you, it's not my job to kick down your sandcastle. But why must I spend my time arguing this with you? Just because Victoria 2 is too complex for you doesn't mean it is for everyone. And when challenged you crawl back into your same abhorrent memery, because that's all this is, you don't have the slightest clue what you're saying or who you're messing with, because if you did you'd stop. Go back to playing your blob simulator, little man, because this general belongs to us. The true strategy gamers. Not your lame, disgusting casual shit. And you know the worst part? We can't even meme back. Hell, I'm sure there's some really overpowered trade good in EU4, but we can't say "hurr durr naval supplies" or whatever because the simple fact is nobody has played your favoured game since EU3, back before they dumbed it down for people like you. So well done, my friend, you made an intellectual victoria 2 fan MAD. You've achieved your greatest feat since you formed grossulmiums, mark this on your wall as a victory for your abysmal existence because I can tell you now, kiddo, this is your peak.
The only reason the Western culture has dominated for the last 200 years is that it's power has ascended greatly since the Industrial Revolution. Things are going to change in this century. Before the Industrial Revolution, Europe was basically a coping and adaptive culture. As you can see, the Greek civilization was not an ORIGINAL civilization like the Chinese civilization. The Greek civilization was heavily influenced by both Egyptian and Mesopotamian civilizations ( Greek myths and religion had their roots in various Mesopotamian beliefs).. The Greek architecture and medicine were adopted from Egypt and ancient Greeks extensively borrowed from Babylonians ( the ancestors of the present day Arabs) for it's astronomy and mathematics and even it's alphabet was based on the non- European semitic Phoenician alphabet. How about Christianity which was originated among non-European semitic people? As you can see, the Greeks were the biggest copycats in the ancient world. In this ancient time period, there were Confucius, Laozi, Mozi, Zhangzi, Mencius, Sun tsu, etc in China whose thoughts were at least as great as any Greek thinkers. Before you wrote this outdated Eurocentric trash, you should have read SCIENCE AND CIVILIZATION IN CHINA by Joseph Needham which was picked as one of the 100 best English language non-fictions of the 20th century by Random House. I'm going to list some of many Chinese inventions and ideas that backwards Europe copied from China before the Industrial Revolution. China invented compass, rudder, leeboard, centerboard, multi-mast, watertight compartments which Europe didn't use for their ships until the late 18th century. Without all these Chinese inventions, the European voyages of discovery wouldn't have been possible. Also China invented not only paper but also printing including the movable type about 400 years before Gutenberg who had been vey likely influenced by the movable type developments in China and Korea, developed one.
lads I am liquormemer after all
Without these Chinese inventions, the SPREAD of Renaissance would have been extremely difficult. China invented not only gunpowder but also gun, cannon, rocket including multi-stage ones, both land and sea mines, bomb, even hand grenade. All these Chinese military technologies were furiously copied by Europeans. Can you imagine the modern military without these Chinese inventions? Even the European Enlightenment was heavily influenced by many of Chinese thoughts. As a matter of fact, many Enlightenment thinkers such as Montaigne, Leibniz, Voltaire, Quesnay, etc. were enamored with the ancient Chinese idea of mandate of heaven that essentially declared that an UNFIT king should be overthrown. These European scholars thought the mandate of heaven idea was much more enlightening than the rigid and primitive European idea of the divine right of king to rule forever no matter what. This Chinese idea of mandate od heaven greatly influenced the French Revolution. Also these European thinkers had a high opinion of the Chinese bureaucratic system based on meritocracy through civil service examinations, while denouncing the privileges of the European hereditary aristocracy. Even the concept of laissez-faire was borne in the ancient China. Both Taoists and Confucian scholars believed in little or no state intervention in economic activities. From about 2nd century BC on, Chinese dynasties practiced free market economy while only intervening from time to time in iron and salt enterprises and also by and large they kept taxes low. The Chinese idea of laissez-faire greatly influenced the French economist Quesnay who in turn influenced Adam Smith. Also in the 18th century all things Chinese were a rage in Europe. Europeans copied Chinese architecture, interior decoration, tea-drinking, etc. As you can see it was the Europeans copying Chinese, not the other way around.
It's no accident China and India were the two biggest economies in the world from the 1st century to the end of the 18th century. Also China invented blast furnace, coking - coal, so called- Bessemer Steel Process, Siemens' Steel process, drilling techniques for oil and natural gas ( China drilled for natural gas and transferred it through pipelines for heating and lighting starting in the 4th century BC, on the other hand Europe didn't use natural gas until the late 19th century). Without all these Chinese inventions, the Industrial Revolution would have been impossible. These are just some of the ground- breaking Chinese inventions and ideas that backward Europe eagerly copied before the Industrial Revolution. Even science was born in the 11th century in the Islamic civilization with the birth of the EXPERIMENTAL SCIENTIFIC METHOD ( all ancient civilizations were pre-scientific) The backwards Europe again copied the experimental scientific method extensively thus bringing about the Scientific Revolution in Europe. The primitive Europeans copied not only science but also math, architecture, literature, etc from the Islamic civilization in the Middle Ages. As you can see Europe was basically a copying and adaptive culture before the Industrial Revolution. Even though Europe overtook China in science in the 17th century. China was still ahead of Europe in technology until the end of the 18th century because there was disconnect between nascent scientific theories and implementing them for technological developments. Before the Industrial Revolution, almost all the technological improvements were done by craftsmen or technicians not by scientists. Even Ancient China was far ahead of the Greco-Roman civilization in technology. According to Robert Temple, a well-respected scholar of the Oriental Studies, more than half of the inventions that laid foundations for the modern world before the Industrial Revolution came from China.
Since I have reached the conclussion that my ideal grand strategy game will not be released anytime soon, I started daydreaming about playing GS.
That's right, I no longer play strategy games, instead I imagine that I am playing them. And oh boy, this is really fun.
There are just so many options... In my mind, you pretty much play as any contemporary nation. You can play as N.Korea and try to become more liberal, reform financially (over the course of years) ultimately unifying Korea through diplomacy, or remain an absolutist dictatorship and fund extremists to steer shit up in the south, or declare war when the International Community is busy with more severe issues. There is this thing called World Tension (nothing to do with the hoi4 one). When there is not much world tension, the world is very eager to maintain peace, so unprovoked invasions or war crimes will be dealt with very aggressively, when there is a lot of world tension, the world starts getting used to the notion of wars, thus it is easier to do your thing without the UN fucking your shit up. If there is a lot of WT and the UN fails to reduce it several times, its' Authority will get reduced, resulting in eventual disbandment. The UN can always be restored, with the consent of all 10 Great Powers.
My favorite campaign was with South Africa. I picked a globalist focus, that pretty much allowed all Negroes to feel accepted in my society (pan-Africanism). After reforming agriculture, industry, infrastructure and healthcare, I started focusing on military imports and technology. I got to attack some "infamous" nations and soon I dominated the African Union, federalizing several friendly nations up to lower-central Africa. After teaching them how to be humans, I rapidly started feeling like a World Power. Having riled-up a lot of attention with my conquests and being the US rival (emerging GPs are not taken very kindly), they manipulating the global opinion against me and funding discord groups.

>tfw the uk produced 40% of the world's steel in 1875 with only 32 million people
try and beat that chinks
I soon started preparing fortifications in Southern Africa and importing AA and nuclear arms from Russia and China. I even got to spread out my industry and make some shelters. The US soon made their move, 20 divisions deployed in the Ivory Coast, plus 6 allied ones. My intel detected 3 US CVs deployed across my western coast. Shit was getting serious. I barely managed to complete my Balistic missle project before the US declared war and blockaded me, significantly reducing my import capability. As would be expected between nuclear powers, the war declaration was followed by a mutual agreement to not use nuclear weapons and instead fight conventionally. I accepted, since the US nuclear arsenal was way more threatening than mine, but this treaty can be easily revoked if necessary.
Their continential invasion proved to be much stronger than expected, their 20+ divisions broke through my 40+ ones due the crippling effect of their air-force. Being out in the plains, our army group was hopeless against the overwhelming US airforce. While our Russian imported jets were exceptional, both the larger quantity and better air-tradition of the US meant that we were to tread carefully. The first battle was a complete disaster, with us losing over 50 thousand troops (30 thousand dead or wounded, 20 thousand captured) and 30 jets, while them losing barely 2,000 troops and 4 jets.
Despite the first ominous battle, the US airforce failed to achieve her goals of completely crippling and overwhelming our military capabilities, like in Iraq. Flights deep in our country were thwarted by our overwhelming investment to AA technology and small scale dogfights proved to be effective at intercepting US jets. Our army, now deployed in a hilly environment and dugged it, while supported by our nearby forts and AA weapons, was in a largely better position. Within the next 3 days, the US lost over 60 jets! while we lost 40.

That isn't to say that we got away with it though. US troops still broke through the east part of the 2nd front, more or less forcing us to abandon a large portion of our land and retreating into our 1st line of heavy fortifications. On the meanwhile 3 major amphibious assaults, involving 3 US fleets with one carrier each and 120,000 men took place across our Western coast. Armed with special warheads, from our 10 ballistic strikes towards the CVs only one succeeded, but it was enough to force the ship to retreat for repairs. Only the northmost invasion succeded in making significant gains, with the middle one being repelled and the south one being cancelled due to the lack of air support.
Bah, this will take hours to fully type out. Let's say that as I was starting to get my shit fucked up, I used nuclear strikes against their armed forces and they retaliated. Soon I started also targeting their own cities, and even got a succesful strike on Washington DC. With me having my force completely crippled, half a million US soldiers deployed in the south-east of my country, having over 50% of my population dead and most of my land irradiated and with major attempts to overthrow the government, I got saved in the last minute; a Russia intervened on a somewhat exhausted USA, unleashing half their nuclear arsenal on them and invading Alaska.
The US withdrew from my land and was forced to cede Alaska to Russia and pay me 5 billion $ as reparations, while I lost a significant part of my African gains due to the unpopularity of the war. I am currently trying to rebuild my country and get rid of that fucking nuclear fallout. Don't use nuclear weapons lads, it's hell on earth.
Pic related: Red+Pink was my country before the war, Pink is the land I lost after the war, Blue were the US aligned countries, Yellow were non-aligned ones. X's are the fortifications and trenches, blue arrows are the major US invasions.

>>143524980
Everybody was saying the game was slow as fuck after India was added and so paradox made a forum postclaiming the reason was not the massive continent of bloat, but it was in fact to do with the AI of greek rulers choosing whether to castrate their prisoners. They then claimed it's been fixed.
https://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/index.php?threads/ask-paradox-development-studio-anything.615174/page-98#post-19138242
But the game still runs like crap, and it only started running like crap post Rajas, so I suspect this was paradox in their usual bullshit way of making a funny to hide their appalling development skills.
And it worked on reddit, at least.

is making steel a maintenence good for factories a good idea
>>143526119
Yes. It would increase the profitability, realistically. The only ones against it are people who hate HPM and Victoria.
>>143526283
This is obviously a horrible idea upon about 5 seconds of actual reflection.
In order to maintain factories, coal already appears 3 times in the chain.
You need the end products, cement and machine parts, to maintain factories.
You need coal for cement.
That's one time.
You need Coal and Steel for Machine Parts.
That's two.
You need Coal and Iron for Steel.
That's three.
And then when you add steel into the equation, that's the fourth time.
>>143526796
Then simply increase the tech bonus for coal. This would have the duel effect of making early industrialisation harder and of course making steel great again.
>>143526796
You say that like coal wasn't the most important resource in the Victorian era.

This is a very good point. How exactly do they know what country owns what, what nations even exist, etc, in earlier start-dates? Hell I would assume it's impossible to get any maps or writings from steppe and eastern nations.
I'm quite new to this game, until I can get primogeniture do I have to accept that every time I gain land I will eventually lose it until I have a higher ranked title?
Awesome news!
League of Legends publisher buys large amount of Paradox stocks.
There is just no way they will pressure Paradox into producing lowest-common-denominator games with no political elements to appeal to the chinese market.
