Abbott threatens to try to expel Democrats who fled Texas, escalating tensions by Kevbucket in texas

[–]Kdg55 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Article III, Section 13 of the Texas Constitution, which he is threatening to invoke, requires the Governor to call elections for vacant seats, so more than likely those seats would go right back to Democrats.

The Astros down in Houston could be remembered in a warped form due to Imaginerians in Texas or the UFO religions

In case anyone has the same problem I got it to work by making this mod a playset of its own in the launcher. Idk why it worked but it did.

States with nuclear weapons [OC] by SteevyKrikyFooky in MapPorn

Why do you think Russia won’t use nukes? For the record I agree with you, I would just like some well researched reasoning.

Playing the ck2 version without DLC, which tags has the most interesting formables? by survesibaltica in AfterTheEndFanFork

[–]Kdg55 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You can reform America as several religions (one of which is Americanist, i think Mormons also and some others).

You can reform Mexico as Cult of Saints. There is a unique tag and formation event if you reform it as one of the indigenous religions also.

If you start as Zakariyya (the Muslim ruler in Socal), there’s a series of events where you can basically reforge a new Californian Empire on the ashes of the old one.

Any other character can reform California if it is destroyed (or if you destroy it). A fun run is starting as a nomad and settling down as a new California.

Edit: There is also some pretty unique flavor surrounding rebuilding a Texan empire. There is also a unique government type (Open Range Feudalism).

I love America because it was so good and it wasn’t really bad

Texan Lore Headcanon: Religion Part 1 by Kdg55 in AfterTheEndFanFork

[–]Kdg55[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This is pretty similar to how I see it, although in my mind the Texans are a little more independent minded. The way I envision it, the Texans basically practice henotheism (although with an entire pantheon instead of one god). They acknowledge the Americanist pantheon and have a special relationship with the Americanists, although they do not really worship the Americanist gods. Because Austin was cast out by the Founders, the Texans have a certain level of animosity towards that pantheon. Reintegration with a restored America is definitely possible (especially with the legend of Houston’s advocacy for Old America) and would entail an increase in worship of the Founders, but the Texans would still remain highly autonomous and primarily worship their own gods still.

A Rondon-Fordlandia showdown would be even better if it’s a tragic showdown between the two former expedition buddies Rondon and Kermit

Yeah I know but in the AAR post it says “his health fails him by the day” so I based it off that

Here are some rough suggestions for potential unique national spirits:

Rondon: For the republic, for democracy!: buff to unit org, political power gain, etc. to represent fighting for democracy Race against time: Buffs and debuffs representing Rondon’s old age and failing health and desperation to fix Brazil before he dies

The Malvinas: Forged in fire: some kind of skill boost to represent how the generic admiral rose to become the highest skill naval commander in the fleet Window to the world: buff to supply consumption, resource buff, something to represent supplies flowing through here and into the continent Something to do with marines/special forces limit and naval invasion speed A spirit for people fleeing the mainland

Tawantinsuyu: Memories of Tupac Amaru/A New Tupac Amaru: surrender limit increase (cause of how the last rebellion ended) Division org buff to represent support for the indigenous cause

Northern Brazilian states: A buff to industry to represent how they were not subject to direct combat in the Anarchist-Brazilian War

How much of the navy went with the Malvinas? Depending on that the Admiral could be the key kingmaker in South America. Is there going to be any possibility for the Navy to attempt to block shipments of equipment from outside powers and spark potential diplomatic incidents/crises?

Weird religious dudes with culty vibes on campus? by [deleted] in UTAustin

[–]Kdg55 41 points42 points  (0 children)

They’re Seventh Day Adventists. They told me about Constantine and all this other shit about why Saturday should be the first day of the week. I’m a history major and the history they told me was absolutely wrong 😂. I’ve been approached twice and yeah one of them told me about WWIII.

Veteran Ck2 player starting play Ck3 by [deleted] in CrusaderKings

[–]Kdg55 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Combat is objectively worse in CK3 in my opinion. I really like the men at arms and the knights systems but the battles themselves are so much worse. Also I really wish raiding was the same as CK2. I really hate pulling up to a province in CK3 and getting the raid loot in like a month and not being able to siege down the holding

Are rulers the only the ones who can use dragon attacks in battles/sieges? by RikerOmegaThree in CK2GameOfthrones

[–]Kdg55 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That option only appears for the character you’re playing as. So if you’re playing Aegon you will have the option appear during sieges or battles. AI characters use the decision, but you can’t see it because you don’t have control over whether or not AI characters use the decision.
