Paradox Interactive Thread: V3 'Check out my sick Germany blob'

From the youtube uploader himself, "Keep in mind: This is Vickymod, from over a year ago. The current playthroughs plays with HPM where immigration got extremely different modifiers and such"
Also, I hope with the CK2 update we're able to make alliances with characters not of our religious group.
It happened a lot, and I hope there's sorta "allies of convenience" much like the infighting between the crusader states with the turks.
[QUOTE=Zillamaster55;49164647]If I remember correctly, immigration is influenced by these factors:
Wars
Life Rating
# Of Goods
Social Reforms
Wars tend to make people leave quite quickly, which makes sense. Life rating, I believe, is accumulative, which makes the US very attractive. Goods is simply how much of the population is lacking in their "life goods". And social reforms is quite obvious, a nation with a lot of benefits is very attractive.
China tends to hemorrhage its population late game. I've seen them drop in total pop by upwards of 10% due entirely to emigration.[/QUOTE]
Don't forget there's in-country migrations that can lead to some nonsensical things. An example was someone invading Czechoslovakia as Sweden, letting a non-nationalist rebel group take control and watch as a large majority of the population leave the area and immigrate to Stockholm.
If Vicky3 ever gets made I rather hope migration bonuses aren't so tied to region.
[QUOTE=Trebgarta;49169667]IIRC theres an "Americas" magick modifier too, which causes the rest of the world population to view the new world immigration as a holy cause

At least in vanilla game.[/QUOTE]
Yeah. There's a variety of mods out there that just get rid of that, and you can do it yourself I just forgot which file to edit.
New World Order, as flimsy as it is right now, handles it pretty well. For every million of your population, it reduces your immigrant attraction, so you don't have 40% of the PRC's population heading to California by 1950

"Thanks for inventing Steel France. Now I can make the magic immigrant statue"
I converted a megacampaign where I was a cheaty Denmark-turned-Scandinavia in CK2 (Giving myself infinite funds to hire all mercs for speedier conquest of everywhere), observed in EUIV as they colonized half of the Americas, and then released and played as Haiti (in havana) in Vicky2
By the end of the game I had ~25 million Beifaren in Havana and was the world's leading exporter of tobacco or something idk i barely know how to vicky i just wanted to see what happened if half of the world was controlled by one state
And another game I saw Anchorage become the world's largest city with ~30 million people after Alaska down to Oregon became its own country
I love Victoria 2 but the great wars make some fucking border gore dear god.
GBR,FRA,Austria and NL were beaten to death by a RUS,ITA,SPAIN and GER coalition. Austria peaced out earlier

that was the result. help me
My main issue is that South America looks as pointless as usual
I find South America pretty fun to play as honestly. Colombia -> Gran Colombia or holding the Peru-Bolivian Federation together and then just dismantling Brazil.
Nothing happens in South America unless you play in it. It's admittly fun though.
The most pointless area in any Paradox game is CK2's India. What the fuck were they thinking?
CK2 India to me is the endgame area for blobbers or one of those places you go to after you exhaust all other options through previous playthroughs and want something different

Oh and it slows the game down so you [del]enjoy it more[/del] get frustrated that you can't power through boring times
In the two years I've played HoI3, I have NEVER seen this happen

Was it a coup?
[editline]26th November 2015[/editline]
Also, HIP tends to have a lot higher chance for strange events like that. Sometimes the British will roll over and ask for peace once France falls, and if the Germans accept, it's a one-way ticket to a victory in the east.
I dunno man, it just happened. Theirs no way it could have been a coup, I've never seen it work. Must have been a weird event chain, maybe with the abdications?

I believe the abdication events firing non-historically just improves PA organization/support and increases the chance for a Peace with Honour. EDIT: It also lets Edward VIII keep the throne of course :v:
Must've been a coup.

There may have been an election and the Fascists got a tiny, itty bitty 2% or more majority that put them on top
New EU4 Dev Diary. I like the new RNW features

You can earn achievements not releated to the new world with Random New World enabled, and ironman is not checksum dependant.
I once saw the UK coup the USSR in Darkest Hour, it spent the entire game getting consumed by rebels.
Apparently there will be a Sabaton music pack for EU4 once Cossacks comes out.
[QUOTE=Valiantttt;49204147]Apparently there will be a Sabaton music pack for EU4 once Cossacks comes out.[/QUOTE]
Probably going to be tracks from Carolus Rex
I'm really tied here folks.
Both Cossacks for EUIV and Charlemagne for TW:Attila are going to be about the same price and releasing around the same time.
I only have money for one.
I was thinking that I should get Charlemagne, since a lot of free stuff is being added with Cossacks, and the DLC doesn't have as many features that justify an immediate purchase.
Good plan? Y/N?
I'd wait for the Cossacks dlc, it's not really that big of a DLC compared to something like Common Sense.
Also, game is shaping up to be interesting now. Maybe we'll see the Axis slug out the SU immediately. France has yet to make a move, they could very well attack Germany while they're in the east.

One of the fantasty province names that can appear in the new version of Random New World is Belgium.
That isn't a bug, it was done on purpose.

There is a surprisingly strong amount of free content coming out with Cossacks, which is quite satisfying

Don't worry they will make it forced dlc again just like common sense
New Launcher, it matches the Launcher style used for the HOI4 Beta that I've seen screenshots of floating around. Guessing CK2 will get it as well at some point.
Having an observe game running as we speak, will post pics when I get home.

This is a possible new world in 1.14 (not my pic)
Kind of annoying, they made it so when you back out of the country select screen it restarts the game for checksum reasons. So got to wait a minute between world generations.

No that India isn't a mistake, you can have 2 Indias if you have Fantasy enabled.
