PDOX Games VIII: Communism Will Win

[Impaled Nazarene]

The Balkans in I:R are a pleasant place, unified and would never dream of doing anything violent.

My computer and I already hate all the wasteland on this map.

Has anyone ever tried a maximum incest challenge in CK2? I am basically thinking of doing something along the lines of:
1. Start as a random character. Using the character creator ensure I have a daughter.
2. Cheat my self into immortality as soon as the game starts.
4. Populate the entire map with my daughters as title holders all married to me with successive generations of daughters inheriting the crown.

INCEST OVERWHELMING

It's all relative now.

The only question is if there is a mod out there that would let me have infinite wives/concubines so that I can achieve this. Also what is the best way of getting holy blood marriage and female only inheritance going.

I mean there is a mod that lets you have 100 wives/concubines. I believe there's also a version that permits incestuous marriage as well.

I'd say reformed paganism with Enatic Clans and Divine Marriage.

Are people interested at all in the EUIV Dev Diaries that have come out recently? Because they really seem to be all talk and no substance. I'll share them if people are still interested, but if not, I don't think I'm going to bother anymore until they actually talk about things they're going to do in future updates.

So I stumbled upon Equestria at War last night and that's what I've been doing since.

It might be really dumb setting wise but ngl the team behind it is super talented.

Admittedly I've never actually played the mod myself but I do know a bunch of other mods regularly poach their mechanics (with permission of course) cuz those guys just go wild and create all sorts of stuff to make HoI4 more in depth.

I'm pretty sure a number of TNO's mechanics come from EaW actually.

It reminds me alot of Old World Blues with out revamped the tech tree is and all the art decals everywhere, they even diversified the tech trees where some races will have access to tech that others don't.

Let it be known that I never let this man rest for as long as he lived. Fadil Hakamid's family is almost entirely dead and I forced him to watch, I even released him after catching him in battle once. He had well over 12 wives and I killed every last one of them. And the amount of young children I killed was honestly appalling. I even cut the hearts out of his newborns.

This is by far the most disturbing and fucked up thing I've ever done in this game. I've never targeted a single person and come close to wiping out an entire dynasty before.

...I do that like every game. Some times I'll capture all of some dude's like 12 kids and mass execute them just because they're heathens. It's even better when I capture all his wives/concubines too.

You guys are messed up. But you could be so much better at being messed up. What you ought to do is throw the target of your ire in the oubliette, and then periodically drop bits and pieces of their bloved ones down there. Ideally while keeping them close to starvation.

A reformed pagan religion with Enatic Clans and Divine Marriage seems to be the way to go. I'd go for Norse pagans, if only because of the coastal county conquest thing they get (nothing better than seizing Rome and Constantinople for Odin in 950 AD), but you don't necessarily have to do that.

By the way, not related to this topic, but does anyone know how to mod the game so that global levy reinforcement rate is heavily reduced? I want to limit blobbing, but I also think that defensive pacts (as presented, at least) are the big stupid, and I think that making armies hard to replenish is the right way to go. If I can test it with something that simple, I might move on to other changes that I think might make the game a bit more historical and fun.

Do your damned duty!

You okay Celestia?

Friendship? Harmony? Those won't keep us safe.

Praise the Sun!

Praise the Empress, or burn.

They chose burn.

THE WORLD SHALL BURN!

The mod is called "Equestria at War". Can't get to Steam at the moment, but it shouldn't be hard to find.

Now I see why paradox fans are obsessed with glitterhoof.

Coincidentally enough, I was thinking the other day about how much I wanted a MLP CK2 mod.

Because let's admit it, playing pink ponies leading armies is objectively something we've all wanted to do.
