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.

How fares your empire, /gsg/?

This day in history, June 3rd:
1839 – In Humen, China, Lin Tse-hsü destroys 1.2 million kg of opium confiscated from British merchants, providing Britain with a casus belli to open hostilities, resulting in the First Opium War.
1861 – American Civil War: Battle of Philippi (also called the Philippi Races) – Union forces rout Confederate troops in Barbour County, Virginia, now West Virginia, in first land battle of the War.
1940 – World War II: The Luftwaffe bombs Paris.
1940 – World War II: The Battle of Dunkirk ends with a German victory and with Allied forces in full retreat.

HPM should seriously consider this in his quest to make steel great again and reduce the iron shortage.
Also, the iron shortage problem is a vanilla thing IIRC, mostly due to those insanely high iron requirements to build/upgrade a factory.

Just the regular, historical western powers industrializing is enough to make iron's demand skyrocket with those building requirements.

Governments that are more then one ruler are very difficult to model properly in CK2.

Conclave, despite being a shitty expansion actually offers the framework that could mimic it the closest with its council system. Would take a good amount of work on the modders front.

>>144254481
I scripted Odoacer's invasion, in the current version due to the way that his invasion works most titles that would make sense to reform a roman republic ( Aka the reskinned merchant republics in Italy ) lose their land after he invades.

A play through might be possible if you adjust Odoacer's CB so that it protects the vassals like it does the king of Dalmatia.

No, the point of populism is getting power by manipulating people
This usually includes telling what they want to hear and manipulating emotions
One common discurse is the "us vs them", like Chavez "it's all the americans/right/elites fault" or Trump's "it's the immigrants fault"

The point is always the same: power. Populists don't give a shit about people, only about power

Trump/Farage is the same shit as Chavez

You don't know what you're talking about, me lad. If farage was only in it for power he'd have stuck with the tories and either be PM or a cabinet minister now, but he decided to go with his believes and keep britain british.

Populism is the main disease of democracy

Yeah, he is. Like all populists.
He was nobody before his populist shit, he would be just another tory if he gave that up.

Populists only want to manipulate people, pretending they want to do something for them, to get power

Flooding away hoi4 discussion with shitposts would seal the fate of this general. It's the only thing that could breathe fresh air into this thread. Without it, we'll be stuck with 8th grade debate team-tier political "discussion" and liquor memes. Such a thread is very vulnerable to steamgroup hegemony. A healthy thread, on the other hand, is made up of thoughtful discussion of the plethora of new features, mechanics and mods that hoi4 brings.

Remember, steamgruppe shitposters are behind the hoi4 hate meme in their attempt to subjugate you and the thread. Don't fall for it. Report and ignore.

Hitler campaigned on the idea of restoring Germany, and unlike South Tyrol which had been a part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire Alsace Lorraine had been a part of the German Empire and the key bone of contention that fueled pretty much all Franco-German conflict for well over a half century. To say nothing of the anger felt at France of Versailles and the Ruhr Valley occupation.
Thinking that Hitler would be able to magically give up all claims to Alsace/Lorraine and not face absolute outrage is delusional.
