This is actually retarded because your troops take massive and constant attrition, pushing through takes forever and supply is non-existent

But that doesn't stop the AI from drawing a front "all along the border"

As France or the UK, pushing strictly across the coast works extremely well and will demolish the Italian pocket, same as Italy against France and UK

Brazilian society, culture and language are in many ways influenced by Greek classicism. The sigma on the flag means the union of the Brazilian people and all of it's races under one flag, one culture and one nation.

>>145079231
They were pretty based tbqh but they kept distance from Hitler and nazism in general because they didn't support Hitler's racist views. There were people from all races among the movement. Some of the members even supported a reverse eugenics state policy to enforce the creation of a single Brazilian race in the future. Kinky 2bh.

HPM, are you still here from last thread?

If so, with the new immigration quotas reform, were you aware that the United States established relatively strict immigration quotas by the early 1920s? I know that's late-game and might not have significant impact, but from a historical standpoint it should probably be represented.

Best overview I could find was unfortunately Wikipedia. Note in particular that the quotas established by the 1921 quota reform were harsh (very limited immigration from places like Eastern Europe, Asia, etc.) and mostly in response to the rise of Communism in Russia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_laws_concerning_immigration_and_naturalization_in_the_United_States#20th_century

Following a large wave of liberal protests throughout the empire in 1838, the Queen decided to take action.

Gathering the Navarran nobles and her advisors into a formal parliament, creating a constitution to limit her own power (of course, not by too much - the monarch was still ruler by divine right), and soon allowing Spanish aristocrats and land owners to vote would be enough to appease the people for now. An in-house election was thereafter held to determine the first Prime Minister of Navarra.

To the USA Period music guy, I had to remove your mod, I am sorry, but it took up so much filespace and I think it contributed to the crashing. Also, the USA music would sometimes play even as Germany.

After the complete failure of the constitutional process, absolute power was taken back once again by the Queen, due to the long tradition of infighting between Navarran nobles continuing within the parliament leading to a creation too unstable to be of any worth.

The echoes of the Russian revolution were still being heard however, and not even the most liberal of absolute monarchs would satisfy the public's lust for voting rights.

First, use the command tdebug and find the province IDs of all the provinces you want to move to different new states.
Then, go to history, and then states, make a new text file for the new state you're making (It should be 741ish, and then move the province IDs from the old state history to the new one.

Remember to update the states population and localization files

Following the dissolution of the parliament, the right was instead given to all free men to meet in public, and to rally others around their issues.

If the royal family were to survive this turbulent period in history, they would need to hand some power, even if only illusory, back to the people, as the nobles had proven they could not be trusted with it.

Yes, in a way. At least no one complained to me about it and I didn't notice in any of my test games. Not completely in the current version though. One of the main reasons of poverty and huge communist support and revolutions late game is due to poverty because of the overproduction of a few basic goods. I'm aiming to fix that next update, but it's an arduous task and when I release I will probably have more feedback.

Luxembourg had long been a stalwart ally of Navarra, after the wars in the 1700s to regain their rightful lands from the imperialistic Dutch, and as a useful presence north of France.

The situation was clearly not to their liking, as the Navarran ambassador was removed from the country, and the right of the diplomat must be upheld. With Prussia siding with Navarra on this issue, the nation of the Low Counties has made a grave mistake.

Iron supply and production is largely vanilla and I honestly didn't see shortages before I started these tests, but then again it depends a lot on the playthrough, what the AI researches, what you own and whatnot.
Then again I remember two anons saying they got a shortage of iron late game, but none of them had iron producing provinces (or had in their core territory, as it was Brazil and Madagascar).

>not enforcing demands even after occupying the capital
I've seen something similar happen before and I honestly can't tell you why and when that happens. I wasn't able to pinpoint the problem or even reproduce it. I saw democratic Austria a few test games back, so that isn't something that's happening consistently with them.

/GSG/ GENERAL CHANGES MOD V0.04
http://pastebin.com/ycs3f6UA


The 'stability issues' that people complained about last time I released this have been found to be one person samefagging (although I hold no grudge), so the mod should work perfectly well.

For the next OP, please link to this instead of V0.03

I did not change the DLC music files at all. The way this music works is basically the game rolls a dice for the next song within the soundtrack I believe, so you can in theory have the same song playing 100 times in a row. It is just bad luck i believe.


If anybody has any suggestions or questions please let me know. For the guy who wanted the Romanian Communist portrait, it should be in the next version which I plan to release next week.


Enjoy the mod!

HPM, I saw you talking about the immigration policy thing and I have a little doubt.

In the description you wrote it said that Open Borders either meant a policy of open borders or lack of any border control. Considering the latter, it seems weird to me that you'd have 1836's Russia (or other countries you mentioned) begin with Closed Borders since I'm not sure they had any way to prevent people from actually emigrating along their huge borders. I may be wrong, but it stroke me as a tad odd, so I wanted to know your take on that.

The description doesn't narrow it down to one thing, it says it can be one or the other.

AI is so shit,holy fuck. Why do soviets suffer from attrition inside their own borders?

What I'm asking is, would early game countries like Russia be able to have effectively closed borders? Otherwise, wouldn't it make more sense for it to start with open borders and then automatically switch to closed borders after a technology is researched?

This is probably due to HoI 4's inherent instability, I have never crashed when using the mod. As for if it is compatible with 1.01, I don't know, sorry. Can you try it and let me know please? If it isn't, just go to the .mod file and change it to make it compatible, shouldn't be hard

I want to make sure the OP guy sees it so he updates the next OP to link to this instead of V0.03
