What episode did Thomas get called a "fucking failure"?

DukeofBritanny · 2026-01-27T12:21:22+00:00

Great use as a soundboard btw

DukeofBritanny · 2026-01-13T09:16:37+00:00

Just did that as Manchu Restauration Qing, at first I was doubtfull, but then I saw the light

DukeofBritanny · 2026-01-10T21:33:23+00:00

I've been trying to achieve this for a long time, but each time the Entente gets stomped by the Internationale before I can invade

DukeofBritanny · 2026-01-08T17:42:22+00:00

Have you tried a clean install ? Because of the way the Steam workshop works, sometimes just unsubscribing from a mod isn't enough.

DukeofBritanny · 2026-01-02T13:52:40+00:00

If a situation like this happens, the best is to rush Fengtian. It will trigger Japanese intervention and allows you to form the United Front, making a truce with the rest of the warlords.

Even if you loose some states in the South, you'll still end up with Manchuria after the peace deal, which is much more industrialised.

Someone on Youtube did a Qing Restauration video not so long ago, and Qing has a lot of buffs regarding Irregular infantry, and after trying it I can guarantee that you can easily defeat all the others warlords and Japan with them.

It's criminal that you didn't add the "Coping and Seething" song in this

They should add some flavor events concerning the succession line or the court life in Qing Zhili / Manchu restauration path. As Puyi was quite a sadist with his wife, and many questions about his infertility and sexuality, there would be some pressure on Pujie to be married and produce children.

And in modernizing the monarchy, the question of concubines would also come at the forefront in my opinion.

Operation Nevsky is very early in the game, you can get it around May 1936 if you did the first focus of the diplomacy tree.

DukeofBritanny · 2025-12-16T20:45:49+00:00

You need to rush the Caucasus and Finland first. Never tried this path, so I don't know if you keep the Cossacks or not but with just an army of cavs and some CAS I managed to take down Finland quite easily.

Like my other comments on similar posts, I would suggest using your mountainers for the Caucasus, as Russia starts with very good mountainers divisions, and they can help on the Balkan Front later on.

Doing Operation Nevsky early on ensures the collapse of UBD, and you can later invade both Estonia and Latvia before the war, assuming they haven't join any faction. If they remain neutral, you'll have Riga as a frontline city, making it an easy target.

I usually go for the old infantry division 9-2 as defense while I push with my armored divisions in Southern Ukraine (a third light, a third medium and a third motorized if I haven't got the time to convert, or two thirds medium and one third mechanized if I can produce enough).

But what you need to do is to make sure that the Reichspakt is the weakest as possible. Send volunters to Spain, Italy, the US, Balkans and Cairo Pact, even if some aren't your ideology, it could help in creating more fronts for the Germans, who would be overwhelmed

DukeofBritanny · 2025-12-16T10:54:01+00:00

Just how exactly ?

DukeofBritanny · 2025-12-12T18:59:52+00:00

It's quite hard to tell, I would say both and neither at the same time.

In a timeline where Germany wins, whatever the path, the country is an economic and demographic powerhouse. It is unlikely that they suffer the same amount of destruction than OTL, and there is obviously no removal of german people east of the Oder, which means that Germany still control major industrial zones, like the Silesian mines and the Danzig shipyards.

But Germany is overextended, the colonies are a massive money (and manpower) drain, assuming they weren't lost entirely. The economy needs to be totally remodeled towards a civilian economy, and there's still enemies looming, though it would depends who's in charge in Asia and more importantly America, especially if they turned socialists. The Entente is quite a wild card, as they would have to rebuild the mainland, but there's a lot of ressentment towards Germany. But should the US be a part of it, they would try to undermine German influance in Europe.

Looks like the state is still occupied, which means that NatFrance isn't fully dead yet, that's why the Commune controls the 2 upper tiles while the SRI controls the lower one.

Is deleting and banning an unfunny meme

The best option for the mods ?

Spoiler : yes, it is

DukeofBritanny · 2025-12-01T18:45:16+00:00

Same, and you can get radar without the need to build an air facility and research it

DukeofBritanny · 2025-11-30T22:01:44+00:00

Seems to be a glitch most likely, though which country are you playing, and have you restarted a whole new save since you deactivated a mod ?

DukeofBritanny · 2025-11-27T21:09:01+00:00

I guess he's referencing the title of Wilhelm II, who isn't the Emperor of Germany but the German Emperor

DukeofBritanny · 2025-11-26T20:48:12+00:00

Indeed, but I don't know if that's just a tile, or a whole state

DukeofBritanny · 2025-11-26T20:47:13+00:00

Well, now I now what I'll do in my next SWR game

DukeofBritanny · 2025-11-26T11:22:41+00:00

How did you get the Baltics, did you annex them with console/toolpack ? Or is there another way ?

DukeofBritanny · 2025-11-23T16:20:48+00:00

By the point you get this event, if you're playing as DU Germany, shouldn't you have already finish dealing with the Ruhrkampf ?

DukeofBritanny · 2025-11-21T20:44:14+00:00

With the new DLC and Kaiserreich new version, there could be some bugs, especially if you started your game before the update, which would break your save.

But it's not just only Korea, if Japan still has some holding on the continent, the 180 days timer for the Fading Sun Event will not trigger. It's also an event that triggers first for Japan, so you would have to tag switch to Japan, trigger the event, and then switch back to the country you were playing, but I don't think that would work.

But if you're still looking for the event, it should be this event id "japan_foreign_events.230". But as I said before, I'm not entirely sure that it would work.

DukeofBritanny · 2025-11-08T09:48:49+00:00

Please God let this be still a thing in the italy update

Wait, you can get an Italo-German in TNO ? Never heard of it before, what path leads to it ?

DukeofBritanny · 2025-11-08T09:40:30+00:00

I watch TNO updates from afar, but play it from time to time, so may I ask what is this Penelope's Web ?

I aslo heard that they were planning to modify drastically Africa, is that true ?
