IIRC, Italian Pan-nats are different because they don't care about having a GP and will give it to Sardinia Piedmont even if an Italian cultured GP exists. I've had that happen to me as the Papal States once. Edit: Missed the section on Garibaldi's Redshirts.

WhitemageofDOOM posted:gently caress Uber Britain, Uber Britain makes the game unfun and it's impossible to peacefully beat them(which you know, Britain ~was~ peacefully surpassed historically.), i have a save day 2 that is Britain with every nation it can spin off except Scotland spun off. I've seen the US do it a few times, but that's typically due to China Civilizing and the massive tide of Chinese people moving across the pacific that causes. Civilized India is about as game breaking as civilized China, but that requires fighting Britain and taking all of those states is hyper tedious.

Patter Song posted:We'd look like a dislocated jaw trying to bite Russia. That's not pretty at all. No, I don't think we have any more territorial ambitions in Europe. That's why we'd need to conquer Krakow and Russian Poland. Which is why I said we would need to pick a ton of fights. Not forming Germany seems like an elegant solution to those problems I will admit.

But then we need to eat Krakow and Russian Poland because our borders would be hideous and that's a ton of infamy

I mean it probably still sucks but micromanaging your industry is very tedious and you're so ridiculously powerful anyway it doesn't really matter. The AI can do industrialization with enough Craftsmen, usually due to enormous populations, but anyone who lacks pops will fail under LF.

TheMcD posted:USA is kind of wonky since HoD. Sometimes they'll land in Hedjaz because their ally called them into a colonial war, but sometimes they won't bother landing in France, even though that's a much more feasible goal. The USA was a massive pain in the butt in any game I played around Arabia because they always Sphered Egypt and prevented me from taking anything.

Paradox created all of those so you could release nations that didn't have cores on them, primarily for Africa, so you could release for example the Kingdom of North Cameroon

I played a game as Austria and I didn't realize that I could have sphered all the German cultured nations in bizarre places to annex them when I formed Germany. Although Hamburg is the only one that's conveniently placed.

Technowolf posted:The Papal States is a reactionary presidential dictatorship rather than, you know, a theocracy. It probably got hit hard by reactionary rebels or something like that. Although V2 abstracts them to an Absolute Monarchy in their normal state because V2 doesn't have Theocracy as a government. Normally though any revolution should change their name to Roman Republic.

RowansWarden posted:I had a really fun game once as Hawaii, back before any of the expansions. You start as a tiny island with almost nothing going for you except for one of the most literate populations on earth. After save scumming to get around American auto-annexation, overrecruiting of generals, and unreasonable production of capital ships, I managed to claw my way up to secondary power and colonize most of Oceania and, at the very end, Korea. Pretty fun game. It might be worth seeing if you can do anything with it nowadays. I had a game as Hawaii where I was a hyper socialist Absolute Monarchy where the flood of immigrants from China caused the population of Honolulu to rival New York. Also as soon as I civilized I took over Iceland and Greenland from Denmark
