[QUOTE=Zillamaster55;44894704]I'd say break apart the scandinavian holdings to your north, then take Frisia. Lotharingia and then Germany are your best bets to invade>form.[/QUOTE] Arrait, gonna try this. Fucking up Sweden should be easy enough, since I managed to proselytize their king to christianity, it's been weak and torn between the pagans and the christians ever since. Norway might be more of a problem though. Will report back when I get around to doing it :V

[QUOTE=Tureis;44897484]Problem I have with EU4 is there's actually not much to spend money on. I always end up with shittons of gold that I can't use because buildings cost power I'd rather use on tech or ideas.[/QUOTE] There's quite a few mods which get rid of power point costs for buildings.

I think this is in Base Darkest hour, if the island of Britain is mostly conquered by the Germans, the empire will start collapse, some colonies rebelling, and it ends with Canada annexing whats left of the UK, taking over its military forces as well.

[QUOTE=Zillamaster55;44900653]Does anyone else feel that EUIV is far more blob-friendly than EUIII?[/QUOTE] Eu4 is more of a map painter.

[QUOTE=Masterofstars;44910287]I'm now on the mod team for Ultimate :D[/QUOTE] [B]please write events for colonies in the Americas. Thanks - Everyone[/B] :v:

[QUOTE=Smooth Jazz;44910173]What's the name of that green nation where India, Myanmar, and Thailand are?[/QUOTE] I think that is independent India.

[QUOTE=Zillamaster55;44910479][B]please write events for colonies in the Americas. Thanks - Everyone[/B] :v:[/QUOTE] One of my first plans is to make it so that other countries can make unique Americas. So that say, Sweden can colonize the Americas and then their colonies can rebel into Suverana Stater av Amerika and instead of New York it'd be New Stockholm. But I have so much else I'm doing right now it might have to be next release. This release alone I've already added events that allows Germany to partition the conquered areas into different countries ([url]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SS_State_of_Burgundy[/url]), added new events for a Soviet invasion of America (WOLVERINES!), redid just about all the event pictures to unstretch the fuckers and implement some custom borders I made, started the unique name thing (People's Republic of Albion, Kingdom of England), added some new misc events ([url]http://media.moddb.com/images/members/1/524/523883/j0F9bIPyEDuEn2j_hLiwaeSn_X5VwekSsxZRB4M25xxr1MJ4WKb1zqdsmuRwAterfQw1483-h678.jpg[/url] [url]http://media.moddb.com/images/members/1/524/523883/IF2Qtoiq86_btntGn3L18GZOD0NkhGQ96n5ZgeLCHyomYbp9fD2rcQZsbiZo6anhVww1483-h678.jpg[/url]) and lord knows what else. And it's only been two days! So yeah, we'll see how much I can get done by the next patch on the 30th. [editline]25th May 2014[/editline] Oh and if anyone has suggestions, feel free to hit me. I'll be your guy on the inside, G's.

[QUOTE=Masterofstars;44910543]Stuff [editline]25th May 2014[/editline] Oh and if anyone has suggestions, feel free to hit me. I'll be your guy on the inside, G's.[/QUOTE] Hey, whenever I colonize the Americas my pops always remain Natives, however if I release them as dominions/satellites suddenly immigrants flood in, I'm assuming this is a bug?

[QUOTE=Lone Wolf807;44910657]Hey, whenever I colonize the Americas my pops always remain Natives, however if I release them as dominions/satellites suddenly immigrants flood in, I'm assuming this is a bug?[/QUOTE] Hmm. I think North American countries get a hard coded immigration bonus and since your country is European based you're not receiving that.

Suggestion for Ultimate: American Breakoff (in the North). [quote]Example: Denmark rustles up the Colonization Points to head into Newfoundland. They then take Quebec and Ontario and sit with a thumb up their ass for 200 years. Suddenly, after a certain point (either culture, militancy or otherwise), Denmark is struck with a decision that their colony wants to break away. They then get the choice of "Not on my watch!" or "Let them be free" Not on my watch!: "Revolutionary War" starts. Rebels spawn in full bloom in colony, colonial state gains cores. Let them be free: Colonial state gains cores, released, -100 relations -100 influence[/quote] Now, one might be wondering "What would this colonial state be?" perhaps? Well, here's an idea. [quote] Scandinavian Culture Group = Vinland French = Quebec British = Canada Iberian = Canadá Italian = Canada Slavic = Kannada[/quote] So on and so forth. They'd all have generic decisions and their own flags, but it would add flavour, and each one would have a different set of accepted/primary cultures. I.E [quote]Vinland Primary Culture: Swedish Accepted Cultures: Finnish, Norwegian, Danish, Icelandic[/quote] It'd be hard as fuck but it's an idea's guy idea so cut me some slack.

I'd want the names to be unique. Having them all be a variation of Canada would be a tad boring. Hmm... Also, I'm probably going to turn it into an event chain instead of it just popping up "yo prick let us go" Like a slow spiral out of control and if you mismanage it / try to continue making money from your colonies they're going to revolt. If you treat them well and such even at your own expense, you might hold them on to the 20th century like Canada and then part on good terms.

We need proper Welsh names for all potential colonies.

[QUOTE=Tureis;44912836]We need proper Welsh names for all potential colonies.[/QUOTE] Somebody should start a kickstarter for all the keyboards that will be broken in the process of making that, then.

[QUOTE=Virtanen;44917889]oh man oh man is that the Kaiserreich mod? my best game of HoI ever was "liberating" europe as communist britain dat nostalgia[/QUOTE] Yes it is! Great mod, so much flavour, even for minor countries.

How often does the AI actually form the HRE? I was trying to form Germany but this has dashed my dreams :~( [t]http://puu.sh/92NCf.jpg[/t]

[QUOTE=Smooth Jazz;44917541]The weird thing is that Huey Long (leader of the American Union State) wanted to redistribute the wealth so wasn't he also a socialist? Which begs the question, why are they fighting each other?[/QUOTE] No, redistribution of wealth doesnt make the difference between socialists and right leaning nationalists. Huey Long didn't adhere to the distribution of the means of production and how the economy should be handled that socialists proposed.

[QUOTE=Masterofstars;44919945]Should I play Darkest Hour or HoI2? I have both but I'm not sure.[/QUOTE]DH, it's a overall better version of HOI2.

I tried it but I couldn't get a decent resolution and there were no hotkeys, so I've been wondering if HoI2 is at all more refined.

[QUOTE=Tuskin;44918795]Yes it is! Great mod, so much flavour, even for minor countries.[/QUOTE] Aye, fucking loved the annual Internationale convention events.

I hope Hearts of Iron 4 brings back Flag changes via events. Or the V2 style of Government type. In HOI3 there was no way to change a countries flag in game.

Playing MP with some guys, we literally have WW1 happen early in our current session. It was me (Russia), France, and UK against mainly Austria and Prussia. Sweden, the Ottomans, the Dutch, and the US later entered the fray on the Prussian side. Italy was suppose to be on our side, but the player was a butt, so France nonchalantly went and whooped their asses.

Never forget the horrors of Lomza and may it never be repeated ever again!
