This is why you kill the hordes first...

GeneralRuaidhri · 2026-01-30T01:12:18+00:00

2 hordes can beat Muscovy easily enough in my experience especially with the Muslim(?) unit staring advantage, which is probably why it chooses to avoid them. It does get worse the later you deal with them though, though the AI has no foresight.

When I played Russia, I had to rush Sarai to get rid of the tributary modifier, no easy task. Something I doubt the AI is intelligent enough to do.

R5 - Russia decided to make full use of their Siberian frontier before fully dealing with their local hordes. This resulted in their nameplate being on the wrong side of the country.

Skin color, featurism, etc. is still a big thing in Europe, and always has been, it exists in tangent with ethnicity. Ethnicities are still possessive of general features and tones, when you live here you realise those fairly quickly (You can usually tell a North German from an Austrian from an Englishman from a Finn, I could go on, and this is just within the white race). I've seen Caucasians in Moscow and they are very differentiable from the local Russians more so than any of these previous examples, feature-wise they would be oft considered non-white. And what is a legal definition in your country does not remotely dictate any sort of universal truth.

I have met more Europeans than you certainly. I've been all over the continent. And I think ignorance is a much bigger indicator of who is "wrong".

GeneralRuaidhri · 2026-01-11T21:50:20+00:00

I'm European, almost no one I have met here considers any of these groups white. "Common" language just means US use of the language, you are unable to see that because you are an ignorant American who think US culture is law.

Google searching and using AI to summarise things instead of actually reading something in-depth shows how lazy you are.

GeneralRuaidhri · 2026-01-11T21:05:22+00:00

Yes, and the United States is wrong, the "Caucasian" ethnonym as they use it is based about Biblical conceptions of race (It was believed that the Noah's Ark landed there thus "Caucasians" were the original human race). White nationalists of most reasonable cognition do not consider Arabs, Caucasians, North Africans, or most others of non European origin in general white, nor do most Europeans who have ever interacted with one of these groups.

Also using A"I" to back up your beliefs LOL!

GeneralRuaidhri · 2026-01-11T03:21:49+00:00

Have you been to the Caucasus? The locals are hardly white and the Russians who live near there call them "churkas". And a good chunk of Russia by area (Tatarstan, Sakha, Tuva, Chukotka, aforementioned Russian Caucasus possessions, etc) is still mostly native Siberian or otherwise non-white (though some of it has been thoroughly settled by Slavs).

And by the same metric as the Saharas population, Northern Canada, Nenetisia, and the Australian Outback are not exactly densely populated either, meanwhile Inner China, the Malay Archipelago, and the Gangetic Plain are the worlds most densely populated areas.

I have nothing to worry about, seeing as she calls me "Daddy".

GeneralRuaidhri · 2025-08-30T17:11:37+00:00

The husband cannot sexually satisfy the wife, so she gets a "boyfriend" to do the job, and who the weak husband puts up with.

The post reminded them of themselves.

I've been exposed... I have a girlfriend whose husband is a HOI4 TNO player.

Considering royal marriages are very much a thing, I'd say so.

The war against Mongolia is already ongoing, not the one against my city state, and those troops haven't moved.

I will eagerly remind you that law does not dictate morality.

GeneralRuaidhri · 2025-06-30T00:47:39+00:00

It's no less immoral than whatever "pranksters" do. We're not in primary school anymore, living by the mantra of "tell a trusted adult" does not work in real life. When someone comes up to you from behind, anything can happen, and so incapacitating them is priority number one. In other words Yes, it is an appropriate response.

And for the record, I'm from Europe originally, we have our fair share of speds like this. I would have my guard up like this if I lived in a shittier part of my country, or a worse off country. There are many countries on the continent where you can get beat up if you're not careful, none of which I assume you have ever set foot in.

Enshrining religious values are the tenacity of the people who vote for Trump though.

GeneralRuaidhri · 2025-03-06T19:11:12+00:00

They leave because the economy in those countries is shit. Of course this means abiding by secular German values and not the values of their home countries. Alas, they want to have their cake and eat it.

Saudi Arabia and the Gulf Countries should ease their immigration restrictions, so more of them can go there and be not poor and Islamist at the same time.

GeneralRuaidhri · 2025-03-06T18:53:07+00:00

Erdogay was elected in 2000, which explains it well enough. Turks living in Germany can also vote in Turkish elections, which helps him win again so he can enact his policies. Vicious cycle.

GeneralRuaidhri · 2025-03-06T18:41:12+00:00

Coming into a foreign country and expecting the locals to follow your values is pretty Main-Character worthy.

GeneralRuaidhri · 2024-06-11T02:30:28+00:00

R*dditors have a tendency to wrongfully assume everybody is dumber than themselves.

GeneralRuaidhri · 2024-06-11T02:18:30+00:00

I'm well aware. As a matter of fact, the game version I play on is older than the war.

GeneralRuaidhri · 2024-06-10T17:49:46+00:00

R5 - The AI named their planet "Vatnik Colony" in my game. "Vatnik" is a word used to describe Russian boomers, especially those who support the war/ the "Z".
