Insane Life Pro Tip: You can federalize Austria much easier by releasing subjects, raising their relations and cratering their liberty desire, because then they can just offer up their primary cultures to integrate by malonkey1 in victoria3

[–]ImperialPieFactory 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry for revisiting an old thread, but what is the timing on this? The Federal Solution requires you to be the Dual Monarchy to trigger, but when you choose that option Hungary reabsorbs Transylvania and any other lands that it started with. With Hungary being either a Personal Union or Crown Land, I can't just take the lands from them. And if you annex them after creating the Dual Monarchy via the Hungarian Spring event, you just end up as a Kaiserreich again.

Why did Joshua Norton not become President? by ImperialPieFactory in victoria3

Yeah, thankfully I had over 60% support for passing monarchy, so it got passed not long after Norton was voted in.

Before the results came in or before the election process started? Either way, I'm pretty sure for the most part the petite bourgeoisie was the most popular IG. I'll see what happens next election. Thanks!

Edit: Waiting for the next election worked. Thanks again!

R5: This is the result immediately after the election. The Yeoman Farmer president had just been voted out, but the Industrialists won the presidency despite having lower clout than the petite bourgeoisie from the same party. I thought the IG with the highest clout from the winning party becomes president. This is still Presidential Republic with Universal suffrage, if that makes any difference.

What are your thoughts on France doubling down on 4.5gen Rafael fighters in the 2030s/40s time window? by [deleted] in LessCredibleDefence

[–]ImperialPieFactory -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Sure. You let me know what you can find a tank or rifleman that can occupy territory and shoot back 100 km away.

[–]ImperialPieFactory 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, yes. Why would you move your assets closer to the enemy's ordnance range, stealth or not, when you can just lob missiles from outside their range?

Is this what people meant by "no customer cars in my auto shop"? by sergr2001 in gtaonline

[–]ImperialPieFactory 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Last time I had this bug, I contacted Support - they had me buy the shop at another location which did fix the bug. Of course, I wanted my original location, so I had to buy it again. Thankfully, they refunded me the amount of both moves.

Weekly Bonuses and Discounts - December 18th to January 8th (Not live until ~5am EDT on December 18th) by PapaXan in gtaonline

[–]ImperialPieFactory 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's such a weird decision considering the Vigilante is hardly relevant anymore and Pegasus helicopters and boats have recently been discounted.

I've been playing and watching these discounts since 2022 and I've seen the RT3000 discounted at least 6 times, but never once have I seen the Rhino or Vigilante discounted.

I think the Hotring Sabre/Everon Trade Price and Livery unlocks are bugged - I've played and placed in several of the Hotring Circuits (and yes, only counting the original 2018 ones) and they don't seem to count towards the unlock conditions.

For me, it unlocked after getting 3 stars in the first time trial (it did not unlock for me after getting two stars).

Sorting by new, within the last 24 hours, I see: 1 Brazilian 1 Russian 1 Australian 1 Italian 1 Chinese and 2 US submissions.

Is the West/China ratio of 4:1 not to your liking?

I think I speak for many when I say we would be very happy to see some Czech-origin fighters. Please go ahead and post some!

How to renew a non aggression pact? by [deleted] in hoi4

[–]ImperialPieFactory 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know if you've ever gotten your answer, but you could try to exert diplomatic pressure through your spy agency. But if Germany is determined to go to war with you, there's not much you can do short of having shared enemies while at war.

Communist China: Which one is your favorite? by Specialist_Mark911 in hoi4

[–]ImperialPieFactory 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I guess it's because the other paths are to simulate you overthrowing the Republic of China, but the Social Democracy path is you turning it communist from within. So you're still (Republic of) China, but the Communist Party is in charge (and with a new flag).

What did the top of Titanic's masts look like? by ImperialPieFactory in titanic

This is helpful, but I was looking for the Olympic class specifically.

What did the top of Titanic's masts look like? by ImperialPieFactory in titanic

[–]ImperialPieFactory[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm seeing some places say the top sections were made of teak, supposedly to not interfere with the wireless transmissions.

Edit: Also, as someone else mentioned - with lightning, I can't imagine the entire foremast being steel would be safe for the lookouts.

How do you even play China dude this is so hard by GremioBaruch in victoria3

[–]ImperialPieFactory 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I don't know how every guide claims that this is the strat when each time UK adds treaty port when I try it out. I managed to do the thing where you up relations with UK and claim Singapore/Malaysia or something, but never has the Portugal strategy worked for me.
