I thought the whole point of going from CK to EU was to highlight the shift from great people to the masses of people as the driving force in politics.
Why not railroad the fuck out of every country then? Why not make Frederick the Great/Frederick William I or Henry the Navigator a super event, too?
>>96647140
Great people have always been the driving force in politics, m8.
>>96647213
Gavrilo Princip, truly a great man.
>>96647213
The whole power structure changed in the Renaissance, though. Bolivar, Napoleon, etc. were more defined as guiders of the masses than a singular force of will shaping the world like Alexander or Temujin.
>>96647350
He wasn't a mass of people either, now was he?
>>96647140
That's vicky, EU's period was the golden age of Absolute Monarchy.
>>96646179
What bothers me about these events (and the ones from Goy Dorado) is how fucking poorly written they are. They jump all over the place, switching from first to third person, from historical background info to fluffy roleplay shit, often with broken grammar and odd punctuation. Shit is just unprofessional.
Also it's hilarious that some indian woman (>>96644167) whose main accomplishment appears to be stealing a pair of dairy cows gets a fucking essay with all manner of random info about her life crammed into it without structure, while Catherine the Great gets four sentences (>>96644395).
>>96647350
He was but the tool of the masses. It's hard to have the entirety of serbia/whatever assassinate Franz, but their collective desire/hatred/circumstances lead to the "creation" of the tool.
Ultimately, it's a combination of both though.
what is the best army composition after planes and tanks have been invented? also why don't you use guards?
>>96647850
Because they suck at guarding.
>>96647978
kek
>>96647850
planes are the best defensive unit in the game. All plane stacks are viable. Tanks are like whatever fuck them and dont use them. Guards used to be a direct improvement to infantry but aren't after HOD and are basically useless now. Your comp should still be something like 5-6inf 1 eng 4art. The engineer isn't too necessary if you are just attacking.
>>96648178
what would happen if I went 1 eng to 1 art and I'm sure to be defending?
What's a good EU4 real small country to play that won't just get easily swallowed up by the Ottomans or something? Like I know I can pretty much avoid the Balkans that gets swallowed up like hell fast.
>>96648178
The only reason to use engineers is if you are attacking. They are useless on defense.
>>96648295
Too much ottoman blob.
>>96648365
Engineers are useless in combat period, they're only good in siege stacks or general purpose stacks that'll spend time sieging.
>>96648295
>pic related
>>96648339
you won't get far if you don't expand fast but I guess any prince in the HRE would be fine
>>96648328
They amount of engineers don't give you any better bonuses, only necessary to have one. More art is good, but all casualties need to be coming from your front line (infantry) or you will be getting fucked.
>>96648365
Engineers give you dig in cap while defending, which can give pretty good roll boosts. They also speed up occupation, my bad.
>>96648516
Well I try my best to expand not easy getting people to help or I get "don't you fucking dare declare war on anybody or ill come rape you" sort of shit going on too
Where did the merchant republic decision for Portugal go and how do I get it back?
>>96648468
On offense siege value negates forts.
>>96648668
>Engineers give you dig in cap while defending, which can give pretty good roll boosts.
No they don't. Dig in cap is based on tach and enemy recon reduces it.
>They also speed up occupation, my bad.
Yeah, but it's not too useful once you've won the battles.
>>96649191
Forts don't do anything in battle.
HPMguy around?
>>96649385
Not even defensive battles?
>>96649508
I don't think so, I haven't seen him for ages.
>>96649385
The wiki says that forts deflect 10% of incoming damage per level.
>>96649613
I think some mods might change it so forts give more dig in value or speed up gaining dig in but they don't do anything on their own
>>96649191
You're right m8 I thought differently, you can get dig in without any engineers. I still feel like they make it faster or something. Idk. They are only useful now for seiges, just checked it in game
>>96649385
Forts give +10% tactics per level. High level forts are ridiculous. And it does apply even if you are attacking the enemy standing on your territory.
>>96650229
The rate at which dig in increases is in defines.lua and nothing changes it.
>>96650237
Neat, is that shown anywhere in game? Time to stop building forts anywhere but defensive chokepoints
>>96650237
>And it does apply even if you are attacking the enemy standing on your territory.
As in you get the advantage on offense? I've always avoided building forts since the AI usually doesn't attack unless you bait them and always just rushes into your open territory as quickly as they can.
>>96650376
Not shown anywhere or even directly moddable. But it's testable.

Sorry for the absence, but the next update will be done tomorrow or the day after that.
It will be mainly around balance but I had to add stuff to work with that too.
>>96649508
Now I am.
>There are people here who would defend Papist scum
>>96651717
HPM Guy, do you really think Samos is worthy of inclusion? The province it's in is quite a bit larger than just Samos.
>>96651839
Not at all, part of the balance part is finding what doesn't work and what does.
Samos is cut from the next version for some good 4 days already. Kuwait is also back under the Ottomans.
>>96651717
Could you change the Machine Parts Factory in Belgium at game start from Flanders to Wallonia? That way their initial production chains would make more sense and you could actually employ all of your starting craftsmen on day one.
so lads, any chance there's going to be a good paradox game ever again?
>>96651717
Do you know of any ways to control rebellions or change what they do for a specific country?
One of the problems I overlooked with the EIC minimod is rebels freeing them from the UK, during my testing it wasn't a problem since all their rebels were nationalists but now I've made them unciv they have reactionaries.
>>96651958
Sure.
>>96652128
You could make it so it's impossible fore reactionary rebels to spawn in the EIC or you could make it so they are automatically inherited if they break free.
But you can control what rebels do by using the on_demands_enforced form the rebels_types.txt
>>96651932
HPM boy could you be able to edit unit's stats so the late combat gets more balanced? because some units seem to be totally useless like most cavalry
onii chan i wanna become an anarcho-liberal
do i just spam radical party support focus
>>96648295
How'd you make this?
>>96652512
>cavalry
>useless by WW2
I can't imagine why.
But if anything everything frontline needs a huge buff since frontline is worthless compared to backline and everything in the frontline has the same survivability.
>>96651932
Fascist Flanders has a weird black and yellow sunrise flag which makes no sense. The flag of the Vlaams Nationaal Verbond would be far, far more logical. Pic related. flag of the VNV, which is also Belgium's current Fascist flag which also makes no sense.
Also, Fascist Wallonia and Belgium should have the Rexist flag, which I've already told you about for Belgium at least.
>>96652645
cavalry is useless not only in late game but early and mid game too
I was thinking tanks and planes are almost never used at late game by the AI
can something be done about that?
>>96652574
yes
go for laissez-faire during election event spam
don't enact reforms before socialists so your pops gravitate towards libs/anarcho-libs
when anarcho-libs win make militancy go to 9 so you get the bourgeois dictatorship event
>>96651932
>>96651839
A number of other countries will also be cut, mainly because they don't work well with the global economy. Uncivs especially, the game works in a way that sphering or conquering an unciv is actually helping them.
Because of that, the Johore sultanates are being cut and I made events for the AI to be aggressive towards some specific minors, like Sikkim, to avoid them starving to death
Here's the current changelog:
http://pastebin.com/6Z4dHusH
>>96652512
>>96652645
I will work on a military rework in the future and yes, and that will need a lot of testing.
>>96652662
Fascist Belgium has the rexist flag.
>>96652803
Cavalry is essential until you invent planes.
AI uses planes and tanks almost exclusively if you buff them.
>>96652873
>Fascist Belgium has the rexist flag.
Yeah, you're right, didn't notice that you changed that in the latest version. Wallonia should have the Rexist flag also, though.
GUYS WHAT IF HPMGUY WAS MENETH ???
>>96652873
I think the cores given by the "Form Baluchistan" decision are still messed up. You get cores on Bam and Jask but not Zahedan
>>96653083

>>96652872
mission accomplished, thanks anon
>>96648896
Any ideas?
Sup /gsg/ name my band
>>96653281
Yeah, that's part of the "things to do before release" list. I need to fix that.
That and keep an eye on the USA behavior. They are too aggressive to sphere south america, but that means they fuck things up, which kinda leads me to see why a south american continent is useful.
Right now, countries in SA start as "opposed" and with -25 relations with the USA but even so they aggressively seek to sphere everyone.
How do I get a picture of the whole world map in EUIV
>>96653507
HPM guy fix the fucking economy
Also where are you from?
>>96653741
No fuck off
>>96653762
What's wrong with it?
>>96652873
good HPM boy you did that shit with the RGo sizes in America
it was really needed
>>96653741
go on...
Does anyone have that fascist America flag?
The one with a dark blue backround and the white emblem?
>>96653507
FWIW it works fine in vickymod. What I do is modify RELATION_INFLUENCE_MODIFIER in defines.lua, which controls the penalty/bonus to sphering from relations. As it is the penalty is almost meaningless.
I put it at 200, which means that at -200 relations you have a -100% penalty, so you are completely incapable of sphering a nation who absolutely hates you unless you use add to sphere wargoal. With this a moderate -25 to -50 opinion penalty is enough to ward off the USA from 100% control of the continent for at least the 19th century.
>>96653845

That's kinda what happened IRL and it happens in vanilla too. Back in AHD one tech tree even reduced RGO size to encourage emigration and industrialization.
I could change the RGO size in the old world, but that could mean even less immigration.

HPM boy I think a problem is that some stupid social reforms like maximun work hours lower the POP needs so in late game the demand is less than what it should be
>>96655079
Could be it, or maybe the technologies.
>>96655023
Use Java? What's the problem with it?
>>96655023
It might not work with newer versions of Java since the maker abandoned it, also sometimes it doesn't recognize where Java is installed so you might need to put it directly into the folder that has java.exe in it.
>>96655475
It does work with the latest version of the java and outside the java folder, but I had to increase the allocated memory by changing the .bat to
java -Xmx1024m -Xms1024m -jar Vic2SGEA.jar
pause
>>96654519
Nothing?

>>96655645
How would I get the war analyzer to work?
>>96655887
How are you planning on doing it? A blanket base tax increase of 1 might do the job. How big of an army are you thinking Japan should get, because 30k is enough to beat anyone, given a tech advantage and the right ideas.
Whats up /gsg/
Played my first game of Victoria II yesterday after finally getting bored of HoI3, CK2 and EU4. Screenshot from my plebjapan. just used Japs to learn the basics, going to start a new game with some random country in Europe. I'd like to ask a few questions.
>Is it worth to spend "a lot" on education early on? I basically had the education slider to the max for most of the game.
>Army compositions, any tips? I rolled with like 5 inf + 1 can + 1 engi, is it terrible?
>Is getting high infamy serious? Felt like I couldn't get anything done diplomatically after a few aggressive wars.
>Is there any real ways to drift my pops to support my party, apart from national focus? Dirty liberals keep getting more and more support.
>What the fucks up with these "Wars of Japanese Containment"? I've been fighting back-to-back containment wars with UK, Germany and Netherlands for ~~20years or so.
>Are there any "must have" mods?
Britbongs are the worst.
>>96655645
That's another one of the issues, the advice >>96655475 there is from the maker himself on the paradox forum, should help if increasing the memory doesn't.
>>96656090
>who are you quoting?
>>96656090
Don't go over 25 imfamy or the world tries to contain you
You'd think that a nonshit country would have nonshit internet. Alas, my cancerous posts continue
>>96656090
Badboy limit is 25. Over that and anyone can attack you for free.
Army composition, you want 4INF/4ART/1ENG/1HUS, this generic combo is good for most of the game until you get tanks and airplanes.
No such thing as a must-have mod unless you want a different experience.
>>96654726
HPMguy, I look forward to you implementing Australian states as seperate entitiesBecause I couldn't figure out how to do the federation without railroading everything to hell
Also, Fiji and Tonga should form by event similar to Seneussi, because they are in civil war at the start but later unite and have actual foreign diplomacyin fact Tonga was never actually collonized and Fiji asked for annexation after they ran out of money, and Tahiti should exist from game start, since they were a centralized kingdom and only annexed to France directly in the 1880s
And also Australia/Queensland should get an event to colonize Papua in 1883, since they actually went ahead and did it without first getting approval from BritainI wrote some flavor text but I doubt I'll actually go ahead with doing more... again

Education spending should be at max pretty much all the time
Army composition is a matter of intense debate but basically you want lots of artillery, and bear in mind artillery and engineers fight in the back while infantry and horses fight in the front and backline in frontline because of not enough frontline is BAD
high infamy isn't much of an issue but it causes passive problems, over 25 is BAD
Just the focuses and picking options that align with parties you support in events
you went over 25 infamy
Yes but it's a matter of intense debate as to which, you can't go wrong with NNM and seeing what mods do what for where to go from there. HPM is made by a guy who posts here a lot so he can help you out with issues and take suggestions.

I know a player with 30k and the right tech/ideas would be fine.
I'm not sure, I was mainly looking towards Korea/Japan when it comes to buffs but I think I would have to buff other asian countries to compensate too.
Given some of the forces they could raise by even the end of the 16th century (150k) I'll probably try something like 50 for a unified Japan right off the bat.

Federation in Australia happened from compromise between all the states, and primarily Victoria and NSW, rather than from any central authority implementing it. But because federation only historically happens in 1898, there's a chance that some states wont actually be British puppets, and if a player controlled West Australia for example, managed to outpace NSW and Victoriaor them not even existing for some reasonit wouldn't make sense for the federation events to focus on them. The other option I thought about was having a crazy system of actually going around and asking every australian state about federation individually, similar to the balkan conference, but that just seems needlessly elaborate. Finally, I think the best solution would be to have any australian state that meets some requirements, like being a secondary power and having revolution n counterrevolution researched be able to just unilateraly form australia and then everybody else getting events to join it, but it still seems pretty wonky with regard to some states being british puppets and others not.

In every game communism and fascism never get a real chunk of ideology unless you get crazy revanchism.

It will be more or less a hotfix since USA behavior and some bugs in the external formation of Argentina needs to be addressed fast, so release isn't far away.
The problem with all that is to balance it effectively without it being too overpowered.
Though you are going to see some steps towards that: the autocracy NV right now only makes pops more conservative, but before I release I plan to change it so it becomes conservative in "normal" governments and it becomes whatever radical ideology is ruling if it becomes a radical government, so fascist/communist dictatorships, still counting as autocracy, would get more support.
Maybe they should lose the ideology change in democracies and switch from conservative to reactionary.

Anglo-Saxons were too far south to be proper Scandis, so England's foundation can't be attributed to them (unless you think occasional occupation is foundation).
The discovery of America was of no actual relevance because they did nothing and told nobody, so Columbus had to go find it again before anyone started properly exploiting it.
Russia is somewhat based on the actions of Scandis, but the Scandis themselves ended up culturally assimilated by the local slavs.
Normandy's only claim to fame was William the Conqueror, who was so far removed from his Scandinavian roots as to make them irrelevant.

Also I mentioned I'd be working on events for a post independence EIC but there hasn't been much interest in the minimod aside from arguments about whether a company can be a country and you're not really supposed to play as the EIC and be independent anyways so barring any bugfixes I'd call the current version the final one, I have my own mod to work on after all I just whipped this up as a favour for an anon.

There was an anon working on an event a day or two ago who had the ideology change in the direction of the government after you unlock good education to simulate the indoctrination that children were the target of. I think he had an event that fired annually but he scrapped that because it would be spammy.
In regards to emigration I can see what you mean. The pop growth would theoretically make commie/fascist countries quite powerful, but at the moment any pop who wants to leave can do so with no trouble which is unrealistic. Even if emigration was halved it would be better.

I don't think a country would be fully from a ideology. It would make them more inclined to and a little more people to be communists, but not everybody. That's the fine point between a nation too stable, and these things need to be progressive.
There's a way to do it without even spamming by simply using the pop files, much like I already do with the islamic law decision that affects some stuff that are not shown in the modifier.
>>96660653
Sure, will change.
>>96662189
It also depends on how well your pops/country are doing. It will change it if you use it extensively, but it won't stop them from losing faith in the ruling party if you lose a war or they are too poor.
>>96662558
>It also depends on how well your pops/country are doing.
Economy, land and shit are all going great. Also since you know your modifiers, is there a any way to make a modifier that converts your pops to a certain ideology gradually? I'm working on a propaganda mini-mod and I'm looking for something like that, then planning to balance it.
>>96662740
No such thing exists, you need to use flags.
So you need to do a flag for each ideology, go in poptypes and change the ideology for when the country has the flag.

He could make an 1815 start date on a half-fixed game chassis without filling out the flavour for the 1836 start date, thus ensuring it ends up a mostly broken mess, or he could wait until he's finished with the rest and can focus his attention on implementing it on a working chassis without worrying about later-date bugs.
HPM, I know that there are modifiers that affect MIL/CON in your non-colonial provinces, but does the opposite exist? Is there a modifier which ONLY works in colonial?
If so, I had the thought that an "Indirect Rule" invention (unlocked ~1900) would be pretty boss. I'm tired as hell of Africa being full of hyper-liberal super-conscious colonials who go ridiculously communist because of how poor and downtrodden they are. A passive decrease to CON in colonial would hopefully let them be conscious enough to go liberal and rise up for independence without going full gommie and breaking my precious immersion.
>>96664072
I'd hate to disappoint you,so it's a good thing I don't have to.
>>96663718
You could make it yourself if you want it that bad, adding the bookmark and changing the borders would take all of ten minutes, pops could be anywhere from a minute to a couple hours depending how accurate you want to make them.
>>96664143
>I'm tired as hell of Africa being full of hyper-liberal super-conscious colonials who go ridiculously communist because of how poor and downtrodden they are.
It's also one problem I noticed in my tests. Militancy in africa/colonies soars.
But no, it doesn't exist. And the name of the modifier is kinda misleading, it can affect colonial areas as long as they are your cores.
The only modifier that can be used is the province modifier applied to colonial states only.
>>96664513
Oh well. You know what you're about more than I do, I trust you'll find a way to keep the colonial communism down somehow.
>>96664651
Honestly, I can't think of a satisfactory way to deal with colonial unrest that isn't too overpowered, resource consuming or absurd.
Mainly because it's hard to say when someone should rebel to see them free from their colonial masters, if they are happy with it or if they really want communism and a free country.
>>96664786
Did you fix Africa so you can colonise the edges before 1880?
>>96665009

I hope you make also improve the event so that the one who gets Congo actually gets a chance to grab the neighbouring states before any GPs can, that old NNM (I think?) event always resulted to Belgium only having that tiny strip and being unable to expand further because everything around it had been colonized/sphered by France.
>>96666816
old NNM had giant native states taking up the entire congo that the ai never bothered conquering
>>96666352
Yeah the Congo to a SP thing is essential, was oneof the highpoints of the game seeing who would get it.
>>96666816
It's a decision and it gives one province to Belgium and a few CBs that the ai never uses, and even if they did, they wouldn't colonize the congo area. Half of the point of the congress of berlin was instigated by Leopold.
Anyway, what i wanted to is really this, a chance of the Congo Free State appearing again.
>>96666965
I wonder why the hell they removed it. Maybe I will install old AHD to see how the event was and just copy it over and modernize.

It will probably be started, I don't know if it will be finished. I have a lot of work to do this year.

We know. You have to implement cultural genocide, central African kingdoms and commie and fascist indoctrination before you can do Balkan start.

Did you ever read the OP?
Hey HPM guy if your still here, I played a game as Johor the other day, and was wondering if it's normal for my pops to be dwindling constantly. They would never grow at all even with Gold rush events and for the 7 hours I played people kept dying from disease events.
I know Johor is a pretty horrible nation to play as, but all the events to form Indonesia/malaya are there. I'm just not sure how I'm supposed to do it.
>>96669456
You are an idiot.
>paradox
hold me /gsg/, it hurts
>>96669578
MEMETH YES
>>96669578
just dont buy it if you dont like it m8
>>96669673
>implying i buy paradox games
>>96669436
The problem with uncivs, and that's part of the balance problems I'm tackling, is that they are either too low ranking to ever buy anything or they don't participate in the world market at all outside military goods.
The funny thing is, if they ever get sphered, they buy stuff with their master and suddenly, the life conditions of everyones skyrockets.
So that means they live in constant poverty, which wouldn't be so bad if it weren't for the fact that because of that they get constant diseases. Some places like Doha, Qatar, got like 200 pops by end game, because they were too small to be interesting for the AI.
So your problem will be solved next version since countries with less than 100K pops don't get diseases anymore, and Johor has 77K.
Anyway, I gotta go now. If you have any more questions, leave them and I will answer later.

Best route for forming scandanavia as sweden?

How do I keep socialists and anarcho-socialists out of my country, /gsg/?
>>96669748
Yeah, I was noticing that. I couldn't actually understand what was happening with the market. Johor in particular is interesting because it has so much money from the gold mines. I could essentially buy whatever I wanted on the market myself, and I had a huge stockpile of goods by the time I stopped playing. But I couldn't understand why none of my pops could afford anything, even when I lowered their taxes to nothing.
There were some points in my playthrough where suddenly all of my pops could suddenly afford everything, It could be when I got a chain of prestige events and rocketed up to around rank 70-80, but I don't know enough about Vicky 2 mechanics to be sure if that's what it was.
Willing to do more testing on uncivs as that's what I like playing as. Will keep you updated if I have another playthrough.

Every-fucking-one joins in these wars. Castile, France, Lithuania, sometimes Russia and Ottomans.
They entered this time because me (as Prussia) had allied them to betray Austria. They didn't even entered in the war, but they helped in this religious league bullshit so it's all fine.
What have you done today?

And Italy wanted to be new Rome, despite the WRE being dead for 1500 years. People use history to justify a lot.
>>96669892
can't you core denmark and get Scand?
I got too greedy, and I created a monster.
I saw AI Japan with Qing as a puppet state before, so I thought Anhui would remain my vassal even once they took all of their cores when Qing collapsed.
I was wrong. And because I created them, they have all military techs except the very last tier, with an army so large that just their military score puts them into rank 6.
I can take them 1:1, but once the badboy wars start after I begin my final push to sphere or annex everything east of the Hindu Kush, I'll have to contend with the rest of the Great Powers as well.
So, let this be a lesson to others: Think before you blob, or you might end up with 33 million modernized Chinese nazis.
