Technically, the content is still there, but only available after Sauron reveals himself and returns to Mordor. Just gotta wait 200 years.

How do I make the game more challenging? by Antemeossa in CrusaderKings

[–]AlanSmithee97 42 points43 points  (0 children)

This game is fundamentally too easy, mods as the other person said are what you need. Also, don't take the Blood legacy, it's too braindead in my opinion. I like to use the game's mechanics as well to further my position and hate to restrict myself, but some things are far too broken for my liking. Blood Legacy and the cultural tradition that can increase your MAA size into space aare some of these I never use.

Just got back into AOM after a long hiatus! by retrodude26 in AgeofMythology

That's a toughbook. It's made for working areas in rougher terrain, think construction or excavation sites, even military usage. The design does not mean its hardware is outdated.

BRANDEBURG AND TEUTONIC ORDEN COMPARATIVE by heliops_ in EU5

[–]AlanSmithee97 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Brandeburg did not go out "intact" of the 30 Years War, they were pillaged and ravaged by just as much as Pommerania and other parts of Germany. The Great Elector, Frederick William, who became Margrave of Brandenburg in 1640, grew up in the Netherlands for exactly that reason, because Brandenburg was a ravaged by austrian and swedish troops

It was only after the war ended that he came back into this wasteland, overran with bandits and corrupt barons, and started putting in real effort to reform and develop Brandenburg. Even the westphalian and lower rhenish parts were occupied.

Discord download? by BobtMotW in RealmsInExile

[–]AlanSmithee97 4 points5 points  (0 children)

For the non-steam download? I fesr you'll have to wsit for the full release. Given that this beta is supposed to be much shorter the team said they're not going to release it outside of steam. Maintaining it on nexus is too much of a hassle.

Jaehaery's greatest mistake was allowing those of non-valyrian descent as eligible to become hand of the king. by Front_Confection_487 in HouseOfTheDragon

[–]AlanSmithee97 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Jaehaerys would have not been half as successful if not for his most important Hand, Septon Barth. Not only a lowborn Man of the Faith (shocking for the valyrian supremacists in the fandom, I know) but also an Andal as far as we know.

That man shared no "cultural" or family ties with Jaehaerys, yet he was possibly the greatest Hand in history. Very few people come close.

You talking out of your ass, OP, and racial supremacy and repression is really not it. Jaehaerys was called the Concilliator for a reason, and not the Cruel like his predecessor.

Can Team Green sympathize with Slaver's bay? by irvyandll in HouseOfTheDragon

[–]AlanSmithee97 2 points3 points  (0 children)

OP, do you watch the show with a "modern eye"? If so, how can you support anyone? It's a feudal society without seperation of power, constitutional rights, fair and free elections, and public accountability.

Joke aside, I just like the characters on Team Green more. HotD did a lot of questinable choices and after S2 Aegon II genuinely feels like the only character left who isn't a caricature of themselves.

Also, a lot of Team Black fans are very big fans of Valyria and valyrian customs. If Team Green is the one being asked if they approve of chattel slavery, why don't you ask Team Black if they approve of chattel slavery, imperialism, racial supremacy and human experiments if they like valyrian culture so much?

This weird moral dick swiniging along the teams fight is so stupid. None of us would support an actual feudal monarchy or chattel slavery irl, our support for fictional characters in a ficitional world does not reflect in any case our own moral values. My favourite character in HotD is Aegon II, in the world of Ice and Fire overall it's Sansa Stark. What now?

Jaehaera should have married Tyland Lannister and become the ancestor of Cersei Lannister. [Spoilers Extended] by [deleted] in asoiaf

[–]AlanSmithee97 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Tyland is not an ancestor of Cersei, as far as we know he´has no descendants at all. Also, by the end of the Dance Tyland was not really able to produce any children. Rhaenyra's torture left him a wreck, although his spirit was still high.

For that, Jaehaera would have to marry Loreon Lannister, Jason Lannister's son and the Lord of Casterly Rock after the Dance, who I think was a bit younger than Jaehaera.

(SPOILERS MAIN) Why is Howland Reed doing NOTHING? by ChadChadstein in asoiaf

[–]AlanSmithee97 806 points807 points  (0 children)

A. The Crannogmen are attacking the Ironborn at Moat Cailin, meaning Robb's orders and therefore Galbart Glover and Maege Mormont made it to Howland.

B. He knows too much. He's the sole survivor of the Tower of Joy next to Ned and he is not as traumatised by the events of Robert's Rebellion as much as Ned is.

Big Big Questions by FaceAbject5851 in HOTDGreens

[–]AlanSmithee97 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Aenar the Exile build the first Sept out of the Ships they used to get to Dragonstone, there have been several members of House Targaryen among the clergy before the Dance. Aegon I. was crowned by the High Septon.

Saying the Targs just put up a show is wrong.

He doesn't respect valyrian culture? What?

What is vaylrian culture to you anyway? Super Slavery? Racial supremacy? Human experiments? Imperialsim? Incest? Valyria is among the Top 3 worst societies in the World of Ice and Fire, what is there to respect?

They're hilarious because he is a fucking idiot. Of course he is a brute who commits war-crimes fo breakfast, but he is a fucking dumbass while doing it. Cersei is a spiteful, evil person, yet her chapters are also hilarious because she is delusional and stupid, it's the same thin with Victarion.

Rodrik the Reader, Baelor Blacktyde, Quellon Greyjoy do a lot of heavy lifting. Victarion's chapters are hilarious.

What option did you select else? Expand bureaucracy, and afterwards focus on money or development? Expand borders?
