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.

Where does the profit from state-owned factories go? I can understand profit from private factories going to the capitalists who then pay part of that in taxes, but shouldn't profit from factories you built (after paying salaries and buying supplies) go to the treasury?

>>143774230
You have to remember it's the percentage so the number of the pops also affects. I noticed you have two Chink ports and Chinks are illiterate as hell and have huge numbers, they also probably drag you.

Also if this is HPM, you started as one of the Japanese minors. While player always rushes for education AI is retarded and never does that. So other Japanese states never got as high as they could got and that probably also helped in your low literacy

>>
>>143776387
You shouldn't really be mobilizing that often unless if you know you'll lose if you don't. Some people like to build armies with everything except infantry and then fill them up with mobilized troops, although keep in mind mobilized infantry will always be weaker than infantry you build. Also, mobilization hurts your economy, and so relying on it for every war is a bad idea.
>>
>>143776387
You should try to stay away from mobilizing as much as possible. It's usually a bad idea
>>
>>143775710
This is actually a major fault with Vicky.

During WWI for example, conscripts were actually trained - only Russia refused to train more than a handful of troops and it led to major issues.

In Vic 3 it should be an option of either just forcing them straight into the army for weaker units but much faster mobilization or longer and more expensive training them

HOI3 did conscription better desu

>>143777082
The way I see it, it punishes the player for not having an adequate standing army.
>>
>>143776387
If you're patient enough and your economy handles mobilization at all, sure. The only reason people don't do this as nations that don't have a large standing army (mainly talking about Germany, Russia, the US, Japan, civilized China and the UK) and have enough money stokpiled for over an year of war is either lazyness or large egos.

Can someone explain why is Prince Philip not King jure uxoris?
>>143777082
They do have training though, experience is not 0 when they pop up, is it? Anyway, they are shit because mobilized armies are full infantry, they lack cannons and horses to make them kill more and die less. A mobilized bunch of infantry with proper cavalry and backline support will perform the same as a professional one

That's because the percentage of literacy changed actually counts the whole country, while the literacy itself only counts the homeland. It's weird, but that's why your literacy rate on both screens are 12.8%.

>>143778509
Hmm. So would the literacy at the end of the month would be same? I can't test this now, I just quit V2 and enter MKX. I thought the education eff in the mainland also drops because you're trying to educate more land, making education a little bit harder
>>
>>143779005
I'm fairly certain the tooltip ends up being misleading - the number will show you how much of all your pops (colonial including) will increase literacy overall, but the literacy that matters will only count in non-colonial land.
>>
>>143777082
Vicky 1 had a system of like this, IIRC you used to spend 40 canned food and 40 small arms to train 4 reserve divisions, I think they used to show up as basic bitch infantry, nothing special

>>143779005
Pretty much, education efficiency is calculated per provice. If Madrid has 4% intellectuals for the entirety of the game, it'll have max education efficiency (other than the tech and modifier boosts, of course) for the entirety of the game, even if the rest of the country's provinces (both in the mainland and in colonies) have 1% intellectuals.
The education efficiency you see in the tooltip is just the average of the entire country, which includes both pops and intellectual percentage for each province.

Following the end of the Anglo-French war, the populace was left hungry, factories were left derelict or insufficiently expanded to account for an influx of starving craftsmen eager to ply their trade to feed their families, and the luxury goods market worldwide had crashed due to the three largest economic blocs in the world--France, Britain, and the United States--simultaneously fighting. Unemployment in France alone increased almost 1% during the span of the emergency taxation measures, as factory workers found their goods overpriced for public purchase, and new workers found that overtaxed factory owners could not invest sufficient capital to hire new men.

Therefore, Napoleon V was quick to reduce taxes to the lowest levels France had ever seen, to restore typical payment levels to the officers and to soldiers, and to subsidize the expansion or creation of dozens of new factory complexes to cut down on the industrial langor which France was experiencing following her newest victory. Some argued that a market crash was around the corner following the collapse of the British and their legendary lust for goods, but Napoleon V was firmly confident that French citizens, with the benefit of limited taxation, could easily take the place of the British as the major consumer base of the world market.

Although the Austrians failed to achieve victory in their war to re-establish the Bavarian monarchy, their willingness to fight for Bavarian freedom--and, to be sure, their long occupation of Bavarian national provinces, and the consequent starvation conditions and radicalization this led to, which Hitler's bumbling government in Berlin could do nothing to stop--has led conservative Bavarians to rise up in their tens of thousands to re-establish the monarchy, now under the exiled Crown Prince, Rupprecht.

Although Hitler's government has not been constrained by the disarmament conditions of the Second Treaty of Berlin for years, its long war with Austria has prevented its economy from recovering, and indeed has even served to further weaken the already-faltering German agricultural production. This has only accelerated in the course of 1928 with the worldwide economic slump, and as a consequence Hitler has been completely incapable of financing even a single significant army.

Although Hitler sent in the 5th Army under Bernhard von Hindenburg--the same radical Fascist who attempted to save Drexler from capture whilst Berlin was encircled in the Franco-German-War--Hindenburg has been defeated and forced to retreat to Berlin for reinforcement. It appears as though what the Austrians could not do, the Bavarians themselves may accomplish.

>How did you manage to join the Axis as the USA ?
>Did you cheat ?

Only if you count save scumming as cheating, but the thing I was save scumming to avoid was bullshit, so I don't feel bad about doing it.

At the start of the game, I began to align myself to the Axis while increasing threat to my nearby neighbors like Canada, Mexico, UK, and so on. I remained on very friendly terms with the members of the Axis, trading a lot to certain countries like Japan.

Eventually, as I was waiting for my neutrality to lower and the threat of my neighbors to increase, I had the opportunity to declare war on Canada. So, I did. I wasn't a member of the Axis at the time, but this put me at war with the entire Allied faction anyway. Part of the reason I made this choice was because the UK on a couple occasions had started to influence my country to bring it into the allies, and that was stronger than my own progress to the Axis. They didn't do it for long before they gave up, but I wanted to make sure I could join keep making progress to the Axis.

While slowly making my way through Canada, some bullshit happened. Japan took a decision or had an event or something that put them at war with me and made me auto-join the Allies. So, I was allied with the UK and everyone else in a war against Japan while being at war with the UK and everyone else at the same time. Also, I had a strong relationship with Japan up to this point and was supplying them with a lot of resources, so I simply don't consider it reasonable for this to have happened.

This is where I began to savescum. This event didn't happen on any particular day, so I was able to slowly make my way through time by saving and reloading. Eventually, my alignment with the Axis grew high enough that I was able to join the faction, at which point the event would no longer trigger.

Alright lads I made the inital decision for the Illinois Confederation and a few other decisions that relate to their dissolution if some specific things happen. I'll make the rest of the civilization flavor decisions after I do some quick flavor for France

For France I want a day one event that pretty much asks the player how they want their France to work. They can choose to either stay as the French empire or to gradually release land that isn't related to the Rhineland, but when everything past the Rhine is returned, I want the player to have some events that pop up relating to immigration to the Rhineland area opening up with a French immigration program, and another that fortifies the border provinces. Both will be really simple to add, but should be fun for the player
>>
>>143789504
In-universe, the Duchy of the Rhineland is a non-militarized zone inside Germany, ruled over by the Prince of France, but still a German-speaking territory with German officials and a German army. It's basically what the Rhineland was in our timeline, except overtly ruled over by a French monarch and used as a buffer zone.

Partly it's what >>143790104 said--to strike at France, you have to violate a "neutral" country--but it's also a buffer zone to be used to monitor German troop movements and to prevent German forces from immediately striking at French cities in the event of war. If a war were to happen, France could move forces into the Rhineland before Germany could move through the Rhineland into France, thereby protecting French sovereignty and her core territories.

Also, keep in mind, France has a much larger air force than Germany does. Germany has been in decline since the 1840s, and has been dismantled twice. I wasn't kidding when I said Hitler could barely raise an army.

Unfortunately for Bavarian monarchists and their cheering Austrian allies, their independence movement is doomed to failure.

Supposedly Hitler, in a rage, ordered all available units to be attached to von Hindenburg's group, to "strike down the Bavarian rebellion as rapidly as is possible!" With this influx of reinforcements, von Hindenburg was able to intercept the monarchist leader, Viktor Eisner, and wholly eradicate his forces.

Rumors in France circulate that the nervous Fascist dictator ordered von Hindenburg to use poison gas on the rebels to ensure that all of them were slaughtered, and a few members of AF suggest using this as an excuse to intervene in the German situation once again.

To this, Napoleon V refuses. "If the damnfool is gassing his own people, who am I to stop him?" the Emperor asked. "He's doing precisely what we'd like him to."

To the shock of Napoleon V, in early June 1929, he receives a handwritten note from King George V requesting an alliance between their powers.

"My Empire is gone and my nation is now left isolated, weakened, and poor. This is the fault of the French, and you will forgive me if I say that we should have executed all the Bonapartes to the last in 1815 when we had the chance, should we have desired true peace.

"Yet we did not, and this is the world we must now live in. I despise you and what your state stands for, but a King does not balk at doing what he must for the good of his people. It is clear that you have well and truly done what the first Napoleon could not, namely: you have created a Continental System which will withstand the test of time.

"Britain cannot survive isolated economically any longer. We do not possess the colonies or the wealth to do so following your disastrous invasion. Though it wounds me to say it, I request French protection for my state, and an inclusion into the French economic sphere. France would undoubtedly profit greatly from easy access to our goods."

Although some might have expected Joseph to be thrilled at the news, he is not. "This is some Germanic plot," the Emperor told Maurras warily, "some ploy to put our guard down and allow the Saxon to recover his strength. I will not accept it... and now I am doubly concerned about the prospect of leaving the British alone on Albion."

Napoleon V wrote back to George V, a much more terse note and entirely more to the point: "I despise you as well, as I despise all Germans. I confined you to your isle by purpose: stay there, out of all others' affairs, and you will have peace from France. But you will never have her protection."

In spite of Joseph's brusque response to George V's request, he is privately deeply concerned about what the "Hanoverian devil," as Napoleon V commonly refers to him, could be planning.

The first possibility which occurs to his mind is an alliance with the United States, Britain's former colony. With trade restrictions in Canada lifted following the Anglo-French war and New England once again prospering, Napoleon V is concerned that America's new President, Herbert Hoover, might rethink the French alliance.

Desperate to maintain a working relationship with the second-strongest power on the planet, Napoleon V arranges a summit in Paris to discuss their alliance, to sign trade agreements and, in general, to bolster American/French relations. Maurras wished to be placed in charge of the affair, but Napoleon V is privately concerned that his long-serving Prime Minister is accumulating somewhat too much power--he instead appoints Pujo, another senior AF official and party founder, to the task.

Thankfully for France, the summit is an incredible success. A wavering Hoover was convinced that an alliance with the world's strongest and most economically dynamic power was the wisest course of action, and any British alliance with America was seriously forestalled.

In early 1930, George V's government is wracked by dual catastrophes: a general rising of British Fascists led by disillusioned ex-Labour MP Oswald Mosley, and an invasion of Britain by their once-friends Ireland, seeking the forced independence of their "fellow Celts" in the state of Wales.

George V once again begs Napoleon V for aid to maintain his government, warning that he is a moderating factor compared to the radical forces now at play within Britain, but Napoleon V ignores him. "Britain can become as radical as she likes; it will not stop France. It will not even slow us down. She no longer possesses the power to resist us. As for the Irish: they only do what I would do myself, in freeing the bound Celts from the boot-heel of the Saxon."

George V is forced to mobilize exhausted British reserves in response, and to hope that he might somehow be able to beat back both the Fascists and the Irish who knock at his door.

Nah, they're contained. That's all Nappy V wants for Germans--those outside of France, anyway.

Yea, that's a point. I was considering covering his crazy shit in a DH mod port, but desu that probably won't ever happen and certainly won't happen soon, so maybe I should just go Fascist and do my crazy shit now.

This day in history, May 29th:
1453 – Fall of Constantinople: Ottoman armies under Sultan Mehmed II Fatih capture Constantinople after a 53-day siege, ending the Byzantine Empire.

not like this

I definitely can. Napoleon V has surpassed Napoleon I, brought Europe under effective French dominance, has secured permanent French control of the Rhine, AF has been in control of the government for ten years and has slowly been eroding constitutionalism and has been pouring out loads of propaganda for Nappy V, etc.

Desu I've just been waiting for the event to fire to explain how AF took control. It's not going to be a hostile coup, it's going to be a parliamentary coup wherein the AF coalition basically gives Napoleon V (and the party) total control of the state.

Alright, although it's a little closer than I'd like it to be, it seems like the consensus is to fire the Fascist Coup event, so I'll do that and post shortly.

...can somebody help me find the event ID for it? I legitimately can't find it.
