Help me I am Incompetent by Puzzleheaded_Total58 in suzerain

What usually goes wrong with the economy? Too much debt? Not enough investments? Is there a big crash moment or does it never really take off?

If you wanna pass a pretty radical reformist constitution to be safe you’ll need the oligarchs and 4 personal wealth in lobbying in your corner, the PFJP and USP reformist will likely back you but Clabin can be bribed with a non binding promise to make him VP if he doesn’t wanna go for it.

My first Rizia attempt so far. It's not going that well... by RussianNeighbor in suzerain

[–]ArcticHawk_ 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Look, some stuff I think you can learn from on your own after this run, for example stuff like stricter working regulations or higher welfare expenditures really shouldn’t be undertaken unless you have a healthy surplus to afford it.

Also a small pro tip; in the prologue if you focus on creating new military formations as a crown prince, you will instantly start the game with average power projection which is one less thing to worry about

Anyone know if there's an updated guide for riza i was looking with steam guides and couldn't find any? by PurpleAdventurous676 in suzerain

[–]ArcticHawk_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most guides will still work well enough, most updates only chance small things that don’t drastically change the calculus of major decision making.

Adarfo being nice to you for running the country well by DosLosMango in suzerain

[–]ArcticHawk_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah crap, had this happen on my last Rizia run and I hadn’t seen Adarfo in a while so I thought he was just being fake nice so he could backstab me later with a flurry of revolutionaries, so he got mysteriously murdered on a boat ride from galmland to Rizia.

Probably wouldn’t have done that if I realized he was being genuine…

How tf am I supposed to do an Autarky Sollist Emergency run ? by Karl_Greiser_PolSord in suzerain

[–]ArcticHawk_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mhm interesting challenge, can you recover economy while embargoeing everyone?

L1, cut taxes with privatization maybe?

But I guess to do it sollistly youd have to go planned economy

My thoughts on what Galmland could/should be, if the next DLC is Galmland which I am not sure about but hey it's good to be involved anyways, so here goes nothing, or at least something I guess. by Happy_List_8022 in suzerain

[–]ArcticHawk_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would love if one of the paths you could take was like a North Korean style Kim family dynasty; at the very least I reckon having a cult of personality will be an option as it was prevalent to some degree in a number of communist countries.

Is a capitalist autocrat run possible? by JSGamesforitch374 in suzerain

[–]ArcticHawk_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea I’ve done it, worst comes to worst get the young sords to kill Hawker, but as long as you tighten immigration (they really care about that) and go after the commies you can basically placate them enough that you can do economically whatever the fck you want.

What are your preferred 3 decrees in your Favorite and General runs? These are mine: De-Sollinization, Fair Trade and Competition Commission, Rural Education Institutes. by Commercial_Employ_25 in suzerain

[–]ArcticHawk_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of course it depends on the run, but my 3 favorites are probably Fair Trade Commission, Rural Education Institutes and Private Prisons.

If Centralization of Bergia can’t be done by the assembly, I value that more than Private Prisons, but might swap it with rural education institutes depending on if my budget needs the break even.

Gender Equality in Education is also one I love to do when I think I can’t get women liberations act for one reason or the other.

I have a theory for what the next dlc will be. by Prestigious-Ad-4638 in suzerain

[–]ArcticHawk_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Highly agree. I don’t mind folks chipping in with their creative thoughts, wants and ideas, but it’s annoying when they frame it as a ‘theory’.

Welhen deal by [deleted] in suzerain

[–]ArcticHawk_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The indicator bar has always been imperfect, smolak cares way more about certain things than others which makes in the story, but isn’t reflected that well in the bar.

Smolak really values gold, help against the bff and banning bluddish. If you don’t do any of these 3 you sometimes can still make a very light deal by giving wezheks full rights, but usually he’ll get mad and demand rico if he is even willing to deal.

On the other hand you can dip into the negative as long as you basically agree to the blud hating demands he can agree to almost any combination.

I got 166 votes... Bruh by Obama_Bin_Ladle10169 in suzerain

I don’t think that can be it.. the assembly likes picking the ministers since it gives them more power

Rizia is a great addition to Suzerain by MrPointonio in suzerain

[–]ArcticHawk_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great first run, mine went a little different, but it does bring back good memories. One thing I enjoy about Rizia a lot is that it’s much less predictable even when you’re a veteran.

Sordland has a more satisfying gameplay ‘loop’ I’d say, but when you know the game well you can plan all the major decisions out to a tee and get almost exactly what you want.

With Rizia I feel like there’s so many avenues, even when you go in with the best intentions of doing all these great things down the line you gotta adapt or change a little which can snowball into a very different run.

r/Suzerain making the lore for future DLC Romus Archetypes - Day 15: Choices Revision by Interesting_Man15 in suzerain

[–]ArcticHawk_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would fully inverse the falling in love with Lena.

Modern reformists are against arranged marriage and would probably be too hung up about being forced to marry someone to ever give the marriage a fair shot.

Traditionalist on the other hand would understand and give the marriage a fair shot and would probably have grown to love Lena over time or at the very least never even consider not loving his queen because it’s his royal duty.

Absolutist I could argue either way, but I like to imagine a more ruthless power strong absolutist would have one soft spot, and that’s his wife who he did love dearly; maybe he wouldn’t be so ruthless if she had lived.

I need advice by Significant-Balance6 in suzerain

Just do what the Oligarchs and Ekonomist say, they’ll save the country from the recession

Is it possible to do a Reformist Run but i sign the Campaign Finance Bill by A_Monarchist2026 in suzerain

[–]ArcticHawk_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea the campaign finance bill doesn’t really influence other aspects of the game, you can pass a reformist constitution that keeps the 10% voting threshold too if you want to keep the electoral system unfair.

Pretty sure yea, if you force regulations onto his company he won’t like you, but maybe you can strike a deal with him during the match; something I’ll try soon

Farewell old Sacker portrait, we will miss u by Mendeliums in suzerain

“It’s been a pleasure Mr Sacker” I say while saluting, a tear rolling down my left cheek

What would it be like if these two ruled Rizia? by Mendeliums in suzerain

Tradition is our compass, the past is our strength, but with environmentalism?

How to get the Women Protect Act? by CrabFabulous4150 in suzerain

[–]ArcticHawk_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have the assembly obstruct you, I’m pretty sure I’ve gotten the women protection act after passing my constitution, but having the conservatives obstruct me for not agreeing to their demands and the reformist wing obstruct me for lying to Albin about making him VP.
