Siam has a really nice blue colour honestly. This should have been the colour Scandinavia uses.

Imperator Rome is keyed. Paradox needs to be lynched for abandoning it so fast.

For this one, the end goal here is Buddist Bharat as Emperor of China. Because for whatever reason, you can form Bharat as Emperor of China last time I checked. I was originally going to start as one of the Tibetan tribes because of the Theocracy government reform "Integration of the Sohei" which gives you a free +5% Discipline and a +5% Infantry combat ability, but the Tibetan region is an actual cold noobhell with barely anything in there and last time I tried to do it I never made any kind of income.

Yeah pretty much. They keep going downhill ever since I took the mandate.

Oh well, that was fast.

i remember playing hoi4 before they added trains n shit like that, it was the most boring slop ever, is it still boring?

 

[Idkchud]

I wanna make a Hoi4 mod but I cannot for the life of me code.

yeah, but mods can make the world brighter

Yeah it's still boring. It's fun for like 3-4 in-game years (like until 1940) but after that it's an actual slog. I stopped playing it after the Gotterdammerung (the big Germany rework) DLC because the game is getting so damn bloated and laggy.

Do you guys like CK3

i played it a few times before and while it's not ck2 levels of wacky it's still fun.

i dont think it'll ever be ck2 kind of wacky but its a fun game, i especially like playing as nomads.

The Emperor of China mechanic isn't actually as bad as I remember. Now, how would I annex these tributaries while keeping the relations high so that I can form Bharat? I mean I could form the Qing but that's kind of boring and not as funny.
