[QUOTE=croguy;45719158]Which is totally why they got banned in China because they portray Tibet in just about oh, [I]every game except CK2?[/I][/QUOTE] If China bans something, it's expected. If Germany/Austria bans something, it causes bad publicity because Germany continues to whine and refuse to acknowledge their past.

i wish there was a website for all of the forbidden mods which let you do genocides and strategic bombings and purges and shit

Ok so what mods would you all suggest for Darkest Hour? I loved Mod33 awhile back but it seems like that stalled and died.

Video Games are neither. They don't deny it, it just isn't allowed.

[QUOTE=Teddybeer;45720349]Really all you have to do is not post the mods on the main paradox forums.[/QUOTE] Isn't there a /gsg/ Victoria 2 mod that lets you turn all the minorities in your country into fuel or something hilariously outrageous like that?

As far as I know, Victoria Ultimate allows you to commence genocide when you have a fascist/communist. I think it leads to the death of the majority of minorities because when multicultural New England did that once on my playthrough their population decreased from about 13M to ~3.5M.

So Byzantium is growing VERY strong in my EU4, its late 18th century. Is there anyway to cause a civil war or something that will break the empire up into smaller nations? Split it into Greece, Turkey, Bosnia, Serbia and so on [editline]18th August 2014[/editline] It's a CK2 converted save so the Ottoman Empire doesn't even exist [editline]18th August 2014[/editline] [img]http://i.gyazo.com/1e1967c8c2301b463868752159966625.png[/img]

Thanks, gonna check if this works :] [editline]18th August 2014[/editline] Added a few (fifty plus) event 6018 (Civil war revolutionaries) to just to spice it up a bit. [editline]18th August 2014[/editline] It's not working out very well, somehow they just cheat back instantly to 4000 gold after I've set it too -999k. And they also almost instantly build an army of 140 regiments

[QUOTE=Lone Wolf807;45724222]Isn't there a /gsg/ Victoria 2 mod that lets you turn all the minorities in your country into fuel or something hilariously outrageous like that?[/QUOTE] Vickymod allows you to force all non-accepted cultures out of your country for a monetary bonus and an infamy spike if you have a semi-reactionary, fascist, or communist party in power. Which is basically everyone except the (anarcho-)liberal, socialist, and some of the conservative parties. ...it also has the "Turn Albanians into fuel(desc: Why Johan :( )" decision, which I think was removed(?) but was able to fire not only regardless of what party was in power at the time, but [I]even when you were playing as Albania.[/I]

Remove all Undesirables while despite being 'topkek so edgy' was also really useful to get a boost in literacy as well, such like a country like Russia for example.

Are there any cheats to give cores to countries that have been conquered long ago? For example, if I'd want to give the province Serbia to Serbia with cheats, would that be possible?

[QUOTE=Zovox;45726922]Are there any cheats to give cores to countries that have been conquered long ago? For example, if I'd want to give the province Serbia to Serbia with cheats, would that be possible?[/QUOTE]Yes, through the Clausewitz editor.

No lol, but it's okay, it was only one year in game ahead so it's okay. [editline]18th August 2014[/editline] I must be doing something horribly wrong because no matter what I change, the save file gets corrupted. I tried changing Abyssinia's religion from noreligion to coptic, but nope. Wouldn't let me

Might be worth editing it by hand if you're sure you've got the right version.

Yeah I'm using the right verison. I'm just gonna complete this game instead, it's only like 45 years left. I'll try again in Vic 2

So here's my game so far: [t]http://i.imgur.com/urmYiZ7.jpg[/t] Started as Magyars, beat the starting Bulgaria invasion but didn't make Hungary, invaded for Taurica via the Khazars, converted to Khazar so I could be Khan instead of King, and then proceeded through 60 or so years of "I'm fucked, game over" where everyone declares war on me to somehow me making it out alive. At this point I really want to swap out of Tengri (ideally for Zoroastrian but it's really hard to do, especially since its heresy is now dominant) but my real problem is the goddamn Byzantines. They have 40k troops to my 10k at best (plus a few merc companies that I could hire and even then I get fucked). I have a sizeable amount of land but not a ton of levies. Overall suggestions?

I'd say work on breaking up the empire, kill people until weak children are in power and civil war happens, then take bites out of them

Convert to an organised religion, then send missionaries to Könungarðr and Garðariki so you can be bros.

My Khan died in battle (even though he wasn't actually leading troops...) on his heir's 16th birthday and my realm was thrown into chaos. Orthodox revolts, 3 independence revolts in a row, peasant revolts, the asshole up in Garðariki ate Könungarðr and then declared war on me. I [I]really[/I] don't want to go Sunni but I might have to. :suicide: [editline]19th August 2014[/editline] Edit isn't working, but I meant to say "I fucking hate Tengri but I really don't want to go Sunni" [editline]19th August 2014[/editline] Woo automerge

Just look how well it worked out for the real deal! Kinda.

[QUOTE=Trebgarta;45739731]What do you say about Sons of Abraham and Rajas of India DLCs? Should I get them the next sale, or should I just skip them?[/QUOTE] Both of them arent super game changers, India doesnt add really anything outside of India so unless you feel like youre going to play or utilize it might not be the best choice. SoA adds some really great events like the spawn of satan, and the fact that you can requests crusades is pretty great. So i'd grab it if you want some more events and flavor.

SoA also adds the the College of Cardinals and the request money from the pope which is a great way to make alot of cash, just set your chancellor and/or courtchaplain on rome and just wait till the pope likes you more than 50 and you have atleast 100 piety and depending on how much he has, he gives you 500-1000 gold per request
