[QUOTE=deltasquid;38989636]It's not that restrictive if you know how to use it.

Protip: remove unnecessary harbours and airfields if possible, they give loads of IC points you can invest in an actual army.

You can pick tech that isn't worthless to your nation.

I'm currently playing as Republican Spain and doing a hundred times better than I could've without TFH.[/QUOTE]It's possible to modify your starting IC points too.

[larrylumpy]

Any of you guys have tips for re-forming the byzantine empire in PDM?

I have not played a a lot of EU3, but how does Britain become Britannia?

[QUOTE=Tuskin;38995768]I have not played a a lot of EU3, but how does Britain become Britannia?[/QUOTE]

All of the Island I believe.

DAO + Miscmods

If Ireland conquers all of the British isles they can form "Britannia". The province names in the south of England also change to their Irish equivalents (London becomes "Llundain" etc"). It's a nice touch.

edit

huh it seems "Llundain" is actually welsh; it must be celtic nations in general that can form it and the modmaker only put welsh versions

I just don't like the idea of bavaria owning Germany.

Georgia could be a little bit more west, and Byzantium should own a little bit more of northern Turkey. Ukraine should own a little less of its north.

[QUOTE=Paul McCartney;38995909]I just don't like the idea of bavaria owning Germany.[/QUOTE]

There wasn't enough time for all those provinces to core so they could form germany. I only had the idea of making europe look nice around 1550 so I was late off the bat. I only finished with 9 months to spare :v:

[KoningWilders]

[QUOTE=Killerjc;38992457]yeah, why?[/QUOTE]

I recognized the "complete is not complete" and your screenshots :v:

HoI 3 is pretty great now that I've figured out how to let the AI handle combat :v:

[Thomas45]

How do you take those huge EU3 map pictures that people post, is it in-game somewhere?

It's all fun and games until it refuses to invade Britain.

[Paul McCartney]

I think F12.

And yeah. Im just kinda staring at it as it doesn't do anything.

Can someone explain the Theater system and how to expand it? I want to create another one, since I currently have two and I feel like I could use a third one to better defend scandanavia.

To make a new theatre, detach a any unit you've got, then make it a corps etc until it is a theater HQ then the button to upgrade the HQ will turn into a theater button and then you can map out your new theatre. I don't know how you get other units to join that theatre quickly and easily though, I usually just assign new units to it.

[darkedone02]

in hearts of iron 3, is there a way to select a whole sector within a click of a button or all of my provinces? i hate it when i selected at least 36 sectors and one mis-click will deselect them all, when i want to try to select all of my provinces to get all of the buildings maxed out.

So I found a working version of prince and the thane. It's post Charlemagne death setting.

[Zillamaster55]

I hope in East v West, once African nations are released, they don't get the "guarantee independence" thing.

I want to start a full-fledged land-scramble in Africa the moment they come out. Between the African Nations and the Soviet Union.

But of course, have them fight each-other too.

[Ownederd]

can you export your vicky i stuff to arsenal of democracy or darkest hour, because those are the only enigma engine games i own so far

also real talk: a project for vicky i needs to happen that more or less turns it into a mod-turned-retail product like dh or aod

What's the status of the CK2 to EU3 converter?

I feel like creating a British empire, annexing Iceland + Canaries, then meddling with the borders in Europe.

Everything [I]except[/I] unit production and research works on my end, so while you can play the game, you cannot build any characters or advance the nations.

I'm sorry if this is a dumb question, but how do you get borders that are s pretty?

[Tuskin]

I was playing Kiaserreich for Darkest Hour, and I seen something I never saw before, only a month after the Pacific States left the USA, they accepted the request to re-join the union, I've never seen them rejoin so quickly.
