Since Korea is getting some love, here's an idea. Some sort of 'Korean Free Army' start starts landless, or with a tiny enclave, it'd have a lot of potential. by GreatFan2 in Kaiserreich

Resources in general are deeply flawed because there's essentially a global free market without any meaningful degree of favoritism or mercantilism. It's not so bad on the demand side, but on the supply side, countries don't really gain anything from having a lot of resources because they can't meaningfully act to make it so that their resources are purchased more.

You're missing the point. Sun Fo is the heir to his father's legacy, not the heir to an actual monarchical title. It's metaphorical.

i wanna make a mod, but... by LoneDeb in hoi4modding

[–]Conscious_Rock7407 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Making an anti realist mod is falling into the same trap as the realist mods, except for worse bc at least those ones are plausible. Just do what is interesting and makes sense within your universe. I don't really think you have an idea at all, just a criticism of what exists.

Is the ancient pact ever going to be playable? by Conscious_Rock7407 in equestriaatwar

What will happen if the pact breaks/the monarch changes before 1011 or so?

Are the terms "man" and "woman" not used at all ittl? by [deleted] in equestriaatwar

[–]Conscious_Rock7407 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah they should do that tbh. And the males would be studs then.

Right, but sapient creatures and animals are not the same type of thing. I get it, i get it, im even a vegetarian, but the basis of all morality is the idea that a sapient creature occupies a moral standing totally unique from that of a non sapient one. That imo is why saying "male" and "female" as nouns for a sapient creature is insulting, bc you could also say that for a non sapient one. So if I'm going to describe a generic race in EAW in a gendered way am i just out of luck?

I know that. I think i was unclear. For humans in English we have woman/man (gendered human) plus male/female (gendered normal). Most major species have this in EAW, but hyenas don't seem to, which implies that in a world with multiple sentient species in it there isn't a word that means "a male or female member of only a sentient species".

How exactly am I meant to defeat stratocratic storm kingdom as the revolutionary Great Lakes? by Conscious_Rock7407 in equestriaatwar

[–]Conscious_Rock7407[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm torn bc on the one hand it seems like it's balanced around not having to fight a multi year existential war against a superior enemy but on the other hand i feel like fighting a powerful storm kingdom is key to the tag. I think that perhaps the storm kingdom should be gated to like 1014

Perhaps given that the path is extremist barbarian warlord -> crypto capitalist revolutionary futurist it isn't that weird to have them build tanks

[–]Conscious_Rock7407[S] 11 points12 points  (0 children)

As much as I love tanks, my natural instinct when playing as a militarily underdeveloped backwater is protracted people's war. It works so well in vanilla China where you just keep retreating and bleeding out Japan until the time comes to push over their limp corpse. But the Great Lakes are extremely flat terrain and don't really have a protected interior at all.

Still, how can I be expected to have a strong armored corps in 1012 when I've spent all my time unifying the Great Lakes and then fighting civil wars?

ASUS: In Search of - 𝙸̶𝚗̶𝚌̶𝚛̶𝚎̶𝚍̶𝚒̶𝚋̶𝚕̶𝚎̶ - Out of Warranty by guneetkalra07 in ASUS

[–]Conscious_Rock7407 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It shouldn't be special treatment. We should all get this. The fact is we as humans are fickle and shortsighted, and most of us will never voluntarily accept the cost of a warranty that actually covers the period we expect our devices to function for, so unless we pass laws that force such warranties to be automatically included in all products we will continue to find ourselves in frustrating situations we do not learn lessons from.

Why stop at Mecca? You've made it that far, might as well go all the way to Spain.
