Paradox Games VII: Vicky III - Vicky Meets The Blorg

[The Knockout Gun Gals]

I’ve never launched a single nuke in vanilla/RT56. What’s wrong with me and how do I murder millions of innocent civilians the right way?

A lot.
And chemical weapons.

But there are no chemical weapons in HoI4.

[Serrus]

So I have been tryna play Vic2, and I need help and advice.
Help: How do I ship troops to Europe from Britain?
Advice: I want communism. I know I need to cheese off communists.
1. When do they show up?
2. How do I make them appear quicker?
3. How do I tick em off?
4. What do I do once I have angered them?

I think there was a mod that added them, but last I checked it hadn't been updated in a while.

1) They usually show up once you've developed Ideological thought, and one of the discoveries under that tech shows up. After that the Socialists and/or the Communists show up within a year.
2) Bumrush ideological thought, it opens up in 1840. If you really want to be efficient about it don't research anything other than whatever techs exist on the philosophy tree to build up tech points, and get the speediest possible progress.
3) Don't enact social reforms ever, don't suppress their militancy or consciousness activities (those of poor pops generally, and of laborer, or craftsman pops more specifically, when dealing with communist influence). Pump their issues in elections.
4) Once rebel stacks appear, leave the path to your capital open. They'll enforce their demands and you'll get a dictatorship of the proletariat. Though I caution you that letting them win a revolution will eat your prestige, and having a planned economy late game is a bit challenging to manage. Personally I prefer socialists/state capitalist over communists/planned economics, but that's just my own way of doing things. If you feel the urge to run everything about your economy manually go for it.

It’s like CK2 or EU4. You need transport ships to put your troops on. More troops than ships and you can’t get them on until you split them.

Good luck with Vic2, it’s a great complex game from the few complete games I’ve played but boy is it user unfriendly.

Also, The Kingdom of Two Sicilies is a fun country to play. Potential for a large industry, an impressive army for a Secondary Power, and a clear shot to Great Power status makes the unification of Italy an enjoyable experience.

And yet another alt-history HOI4 mod In The Name of The Tsar
To put it simply, -What if Russia won WW1?-

The more I look at it the more it looks like a shameless rip-off of Kaiserreich honestly.
Still I'm gonna give it a try.

Yeah, but what if Italy won WWI and then Mussolini died in a car crash assassination coordinated by the Lenin-led Mexican government?

The 146th Battle of the Isonzo finally managed to break the Austro-Hungarian line and pushed all the way to Vienna and then Budapest knocking the decadent empire out of the war.
Mussolini celebrated a Triumph in Rome dragging Austrian Emperor Franz Joseph behind him in chains.
Mussolini's horse was then ran over by a sudden car that came out of nowhere.

As a result of the now intense intercontinental tensions, America, led by a highly protectionist and isolationist president, sought to protect American interests by staying out of the rising fires by revoking the Monroe doctrine and cutting trade deals across the world. The resulting instability of losing America's influence on the economic stage led to the stock market crash that was forever immortalized by the name Black Thursday.
