Knights of honour was an incredible game. I am so sad that no one else has tried to follow in their footsteps and meld EU with TW gameplay.

Mr. Showtime posted:Speaking of Darkest Hour + Kaiserreich, has anyone else had problems registering the game so that you can download the beta patch? I bought it from the Paradox web store a few days ago; Steam has no option to view my CD key and the Steam key mailed to me in my receipt doesn't work on the Paradox forums. I've put in a ticket, but while I'm waiting for a response I thought I'd ask if anyone else has had this problem and in exactly which way I'm missing something blindingly obvious. There used to be a line about deleting the last digit or so of some of the key formats to make it fit in the box properly. I don't know if that's still a thing or if it's your problem but it's probably worth double checking you didn't miss any instructions like that.

That's bizarre. Have you tried running the game? Maybe verify the intergrity of the game cache? Also if you check under DLC for DH you should see "Darkest Hour - Forum registration key" (although it's not viewable from the DLC menu). If you don't then that's probably the problem and it would seem like a fault a Steam's end, not PI.

Thats already in DH and it doenst really help though, as said you just take an undefended non beach with paratroopers then instantly land troops there. What should be done is add a load/unload time to ships dependent on the size of the port, so you only have to defend major ports + beaches, rather like in real life. Of course, if they can manage to fix the supply system for HOI4 you won't be able to stage a major invasion through a minor port/beachead anyway due to lack of supplies.

Well I'm sure they'll get to it eventualy, but I dont think they said anything about it yet, officialy or otherwise. I'd be suprised if their next "main" title after EU4 isn't HOI4 though.

gradenko_2000 posted:Thanks Dr Prosek for the CSA advice! I will have to try that next game. Varies from game to game but they ussualy have more soft attack and morale but less hard attack. Still no where near worth using as ground troops in an IC effciency sense though,but thats true for just about everything except bog standard infantry and a handfull of tanks. I really wish brigades were more ballanced to provide a viable IC heavy manpower light army for nations like Germany or Britian, as it is everyone is best off just spamming bog standard infantry, hell Germany is even better off not upgrading their infantry because of their central planning slider. If the USSR wants to take that approach that should be fine but it really sucks that its true for every nation.

Cowcatcher posted:How would you handle breaking up of tribes? Some of the Slavs move south, a bunch of Magyars gets in between them and the rest of the family up north, and a century later they're a separate culture. You could make it so you need directly continous territory to maintain your vassals. If someone splits your land in half then one chuck will be broken off and form its own new nation/culture.

quote:This leads to mayhem and mirth. France begins the game with land dominance and Napoleon’s Grand Armee poised to assault England, but because of its position of power, le petit caporal’s country is unlikely to win many friends. But, hey, England is the dominant naval power, needing only to grab Gibraltar and a few coastal territories to entrench its rule of the waves, so perhaps it’s best to let the two bleed each other dry. Wait, Britain doesn't start with Gibraltar?

Riso posted:They spent up to 40% of GDP on their loving military to keep up with the USA while completely mismanaging the civilian sector. There's absolutely no way to avoid collapse. Well you could try not spending 40% of GDP on the military for starters. The USSR had the resources to "win" the cold war, they just didn't use them right. Riso posted:You might as well ask what the point of WW2 games is where the Germans are doomed to fail. Except Germany is anything but doomed to fail in HOI.

Sindai posted:Yeah, that's the big weakness to the EU3 and CK2 combat systems. There's a lot going on under the hood and some fairly clever and complex systems being run, but the game is really bad at showing the player what's happening and there's no way for the player to influence it even if they knew. But manpower and preserving manpower is now more important it seems so maybe that would now be a signifigant diference.

The problem is that empires in paradox games really only collapse due to external factors, which is pretty much the opposite of how most empires failed in real life. Some were forcibly dismantled but the majority rotted from the inside for anything from 50 to 500 years before disintegrating.

Sadly I dont think HOI2 really has the capability to give a scenario like that what it deserves, and the politics system from HOI3 would gently caress it up even more probably. Maybe HOI4 will have an updated but actualy good political system and it would be possible, we can dream at least.

Puella Magissima posted:All the bonuses from your government type are scaled up a bit(can't remember how much) and you get some prestige. It also lowers your legitimacy a bunch for some reason. It's been a while but from what I remember it is one of the only ways to increase the "level" of your goverment, which you need to not get horrible overextension penalties as you grow. SO it is a very important thing to do, but there's not much point expanding just to get the next title, it goes more the other way around.

It might not be 100% obvious in the begining but once you understand the trick to it (add up all the modifiers, apply total modifier as a % to the base) its as quick and easy a system as any. Certainly a big step up on the EU3 system with trade value vs production value.

Walliard posted:I feel like it should, since the DLC doesn't strictly add mechanical content, it just affects which nations are playable and which events trigger. Worst case scenario I'm sure you could find a friendly goon with CK2 on the same platform as you and who has all the DLCs to run the converter for you.

Dibujante posted:Don't you need +190 to vassalize to begin with? How do you do that? Is that basically a way of forcing you to win some wars with your junior allies in order to vassalize them? To diplo vasalies you pretty much need the shared enemy bonus ontop of being allied, maried and the same religion, which as others have said makes perfect sense. It shouldn't be easy for you to vassalies another country, and they are only going to agree to it to get the protection against another power that they fear.

That event is needed to keep scotland independent for anything like an historic length of time, but they can't seem to get it quite right. It seems to end up too much one way or the other.
