Paradox Games IV: Eat him for Éire!

[The Jonathanian States]

Nice.
In ET what is the primary culture of Germany after 1946? Just curious. Before that I'd assume it'd be Prussian, but after that.... Westphalian, maybe? Rhenish?

It doesn't change. Iirc at that point Prussian culture extends to the areas of Brandenburg and Berlin.

Fuck that. Germany post '45 should not be Prussian.
But thanks for answering.

Setting the stage for WW3 with my own custom nations across the globe, they are:

European Conglomerate, Eurasian Confederacy, Levantine League
Mombasa Conclave, West Africa Bloc, Cape Alliance
Chinese State, Indus Alliance, Japanse Shogunate, South East Coalition, Australian Regime
South American Union, Atacama Concord, Central American States
Northern Star Alliance, American Federation and finally the West Coast Coalition

I shall be playing as the Northern Star Alliance myself, and i had a quick glance at everyone and they all equally hate one another mwahahaha, the blood will flow and the world shall be consumed in fire! For only one shall win the coming war!

>Vienna and Prague

European Coglomerate, Go! Go! Go!
Also, I notice a severe lack of pacts.

Quick, gimme da odds of me getting Vicky 2 and forming a Stalinist Dictatorship out of Britain!

O/10 because there's no such thing as a Stalinist Dictatorship in Vicky 2.

Also, because I'm bored, anyone want to do P'Dox multiplayer of some sort over the weekend? I can do CK2, Vic2, EUIV, HoI3 or DH.

But.
But.
Execution!
Gulag!

It may not be called a Stalinist dictatorship, but given that you have the ability to revoke absolutely all political reforms, to the point of instituting slavery, it can easily be one.

I've not played Britain very much because it's mindlessly boring to me, I have no idea. If you're very reactionary, it'll piss off everyone and then you put down every revolt except the communists with an endless supply of Indians

By Reactionary, you mean US Conservative, right?
Anyhoo, If I do that, can I be a Stalinist US Conservative dictatorship?
I haven't got V2, but I want it.

No, because the Prolteriat dictatorship govt type can only appear under commies. Reactionaries tend to create absolute monarchies.

No. The game starts with three main political parties, conservative who want to enact no reforms, liberals who want to enact political reforms such as freedom of press or universal voting, and reactionaries who want to revoke all reforms. Anarchists come around 1850 who are reform-wise identical to conservatives. Socialists come in around 1860s who want to enact social reform like minimum wage, communists who want to enact social reform and revoke political reform shortly after, and fascists who are identical to communists much later.

It's the natural progression. It's much easier to transition from an absolute monarchy to a proletariat dictatorship because there's generally much more unrest.

Reactionaries create Presidential Dictatorships most of the time.

I think it depends on the government you're moving from. Not entirely sure though.

Now is not the time for pacts, now is the time for alliances, blocs and conglomerates.

The Pacts come later, as i have an idea for a massive war between two powers dominating the globe, borders everywhere, continents divided, the world must burn for order to be restored.

But you have three alliances and two Coalitions.
The repetition, Huskar, it gouges out my eyes.

But coalitions are fine?

Yes. In Monarchies and Presidential Dictatorships they create Absolute Monarchies, in Democracies and "democracies" they create Presidential dictatorships.
At least, so I remember.

There is, it is called a Proletarian Dictatorship (named after the Dictature of the Proletariate).

It can be formed by the Communists only. Funnily enough, as a Proletarian Dictatorship, you can do less than in a fascist one (historically, the proletarian one was more totalitarian), but if I understand it correctly, that is for game reasons, so communists won't reject social reforms.

As Russia, I managed to make 20% of my population Communist before they gained power. After they gained it, that number increased to the masses were 40% more indoctrinated, and if the socialists were added, that became 70%.

Glorious communism strong, long live Stalin, the party of Lenin and his товарищу!


In another game, as Argentinia, I managed to indoctrinate my population up to 25% fascist (thanks, national focus+poor economics + revanchism) - but yet, I did not manage to conquer Las Malvinas. Fascism also didn't rise after trying to do that and becoming a Fascist Dictatorship. It seems Fascism is harder to increase than communism...

ET barely maintains any level of historical accuracy beyond EU4's normal timeline. It sets up the maps properly, has some nice events and whatnot but that's mostly it.
That's why the addition of the European Union was such a big deal.

Someone needs to make sure Huskar doesn't enslave all of A&F.

For the offense of slandering your rightful King, I sentence you to 3 consecutive games in Victoria 2 as Sikkim.

He has a Strong Claim to the Paradox Games IV thread County, whereas he has a weak claim over the Arts & Fiction Duchy.

Psst, Ontorisa... I heard you have to play V2 thrice as Sikkim.
1) Fabricate a CB on Britain
2) Declare War
3) ????
4) Profit Possibly the game being over

I am usually pretty good with Vic2, though in recent games I tend to act out decisions based upon my ruling party or what party holds significant minorities.

They are all going to die anyway, for come the dawn of the new age, only one Alliance shall be left standing, the Northern Star Alliance, for we have awesome music, and the world shall know our wrath

Also Military Dictatorship, Socialist State, Fascist Dictatorship and a few others are broken so i had to rename some nations as the government types did not fit.
