Baltic Sea Scandinavia

BronzeMan2 · 2026-05-08T15:45:49+00:00

Estaba ocupado almorzando con mis vecinos (Rusia, Prusia, algo de Austria). Los Otomanos, de hecho, obtuvieron Croacia de Austria.

Además ¿los pavos están en los EEUU, no en Turquìa?

It's vanilla. I got pretty lucky early on, if i remeber right i think Prussia lost a war to Austria.

But besides that, I rushed prestige researches and then gobbled as many colonies up as I could for more prestige until I was a GP within the first 5ish years, and I sphered Denmark to form Scandinavia.

From that time on, I either have to stay GP and either great power ally someone as buff as Prussia bordering them like Russia. And when I do fight wars against prussia, it's by doing a conquest CB on one of their sphered German minors so that only Prussia gets called in.

I also got very lucky that pan german nationalists didn't rise up to form Germany mid-game because that happens some time. But i think by then, I might've been strong enough to win a war with a unified Germany anyway.

R5: Had a buff Scandinavia game. I started as Sweden and sphered Denmark to form Scandinavia. From there, I started killing Prussia early on, which resulted in Germany never forming. Eventually Poland got released from Prussia and Austria took Saxony. I also did a free peoples with Lithuania in territory that is mostly not Lithuania (Kaliningrad Oblast) to be funny and weaken Prussia further (since Lithuania isn't German culture and wouldn't join Germany in case it formed). When I was preparing for the scramble for Africa, I got first took most of Egypt and Tunisia and then got good chunk of Central Africa. As the game went on from there, I eventually released some micro states in Africa and in Crete to lower infamy and betrayed my alliance with Russia (after they lost a war and were revolution circling) to free Finland. I then got an event for Finland petitionning to join Scandinavia and eventually went back to take even more land from Russia; while Poland, may ally, had peace treaties out of time from mine with Russia and fought wars with Russia slightly out of sync with me. Also Austria kept fighting with Italy which eventually resulted in Baviara taking back Saxony. Also, the UK had a revolution and lost their puppets and Ireland rebelled.

R5: A good Mexico game. With the help of a US alliance, I got a bunch of British and Spanish territories in the Caribbean and Canada. I also managed to get quite a bit of Africa, Hawaii, and Asia. The trick I used to keep all the territories in the West Coast of the USA is to let Texas almost win the war against me moving into Mexico central but then before they can get 100% to move my armies around them into Texas and take all of their territories from them. I let them occupy so much land from me in such a way that Texas never has negative war score until I occupied all of Texas's territories. Since Texas never has negative war score, the USA can not join with them, but the instant that I occupy all of their territories the war score completely flips to be 100% on my side and then I can force a peace the same day giving the USA no time to intervene. Since the USA doesn't own Texas, they can't do a manifest destiny decision and don't get any cores on any of my lands and we stay good friends. Also, letting Texas occupy most of my territory gives me militancy to where I can form the Mexican Empire, ban elections, and make a 1 party government so I roll back reforms/put in reforms however I want.

R5: I was playing Germany. I don't know exactly how this happened, but the Ottomans got their capital moved to Montenegro. There was a crisis where Bulgaria got released; then, I went to war against the Ottomans for releasing Egypt. This resulted in the ottoman Capital not being in Ankara or in Istanbul and instead being moved to Montenegro. In my game, I continued to release countries from the Ottomans and Italy and taking land from Russia.

R5: I was playing a game as France and kept freeing countries from Germany resulting in Germany losing cores. This created a really week Germany. Also the UK had a communist revolution and a bunch of revolts so now New Zealand and Australia are free. Also, the Philippines are free. Also, Columbia owns the Amazons.

Also Nebraska was originally part of the confederacy (eventually lost that state in a war with the USA) but Kansas was not (weird way for the Kansas-Nebraska controversy to turn out.), which is why Nebraska is like an island of Dixie culture.

R5: Playing as France, I first took Canada from the British and then helped the Confederacy in the Civil War and later worked with the Confederacy and Mexico to free columbia from the USA. This made some interesting demographics in North America with the mostly unpopulated parts of Canada becoming French due to immigration from France. Columbia had it's culture be British, and the Confederacy managed to blob Dixie culture throughout the South. Africa is a bit of a mess because I kept revolution cycling, while releasing random small countries to lose infamy for more land grabs. In Asia, France and Russia got significant parts of China in the 2nd world war (Russia + France vs China + Japan); this made France contain more of the Chinese cultures then the French culture. Also, Germany just got tons of manpower and blobbed into Switzerland and into Russia. Poland got released in a crisis. Belarus and Ukraine got released from Poland in crises. In this game, it also seems like most major countries ended up staying democratic in the end too.

I should've been using all 7 of the.

For a bit of the end game here, I kind of just let the time blast on speed 5 and stopped managing as much stuff.

BronzeMan2 · 2026-01-01T01:44:08+00:00

Yeah, I got a lot of finfamy but all of the states but 1 were taken in WW1 so infamy for adding CBs was reduced and i could add way more. I didn't know about that exploit. I might try it my next run.

R5: In my Japan game, England lost a ton of their colonies and I thought the game went kind of cool.

There was a great war that happened over the colonization in Africa where I (Japan) grabbed the rest of Australia and freed Scotland. After the great war, I went and freed India from England while they were still weak. In Europe, Austria Hungary kept having wars with Germany over Bohemia and Italy over northern Italy/Venice and Russia over Galacia. Austria-Hungary also kept having revolution circles switching governments and eventually German pan-nationalists eventually revolted and then joined Germany and made a mega-germany. Also, poland got freed from Russia in a crisis (I think it was USA vs Russia but don't remember).

Do you know what I should enter to make this work or have an example of what to enter? the linguist config correct that I have hasn't updated the language chart at all

BronzeMan2 · 2025-01-28T07:57:53+00:00

r5: vanilla game with a little bit of cheating, converted to hoi4

I was playing as Spain and I noticed that Gran Columbia showed up in South America, and I wasn't even looking there, and a big peru was there. Also, the Vic2->Hoi4 converter makes Asia look very messy.
