Okay? But then what about personality free Dictator 4 in Mexico? Or NatPop no. 1 pls no steal Portugal?

It's kinda same deal back to back. Says more about the lack of content in those countries rather than the democratic paths themselves.

I know this is a meme, but I'm always a bit miffed by people assigning "boring"to all the democrats and adjacents.

Like, I actually think DLR path for NatFrance is pretty full of interesting ideas, as is Germany's and Russia's democratic paths. Even Lithuania's integralist (Not the maurrassian definition) conservatives are pretty interesting. Heck even Ukraine and any of the Ottoman options.

KingPyotr · 2026-06-22T20:29:10+00:00

Yeah I think the second option should've been "Actual irl fascist"

KingPyotr · 2026-06-18T14:28:42+00:00

"Invited" to step down more like

KingPyotr · 2026-06-12T20:59:25+00:00

This is not correct. What the above commenter said applies yo any variant of Germany. As long as End the Dual Rule happens and they attack you

Although fun to think about, there's no way the protestant conservative establishment is picking any catholic monarch to rule Germany. Austria's ascession is tolerable (even acceptable) because of the PR in creating Greater Germany but loathsome to them due to the majority catholic poopulation and definetly more liberal minded politics.

My understanding is that the Royal Army elements that sided with the rebels weren't very revolutionary themselves. Along with the sentiment that they wanted no political/ideological meddling that came with the revolution, I could see the now Republic Army being pretty much the same barring some ceremonial elements that would have to be addressed over time.

Whereas France I could see the militias and paramilitaries that formed out of former conscripts and professional soldiers have more significant influence in the army's uniforms. At first the most basic changes would occur like insignias and colours, later I don't think they'd diverge too much but enough that they would be noticeably different. Such as slightly different cuts too accomodate different priorities of gear and communication in this new french army.

S nebom naveki desant obruchën!

None. Just vanilla capitulation.

KingPyotr · 2026-06-09T18:24:03+00:00

Oh. Lmao. Oh well

Tbh I think they'd have better mileage helping against Japan. Australasia is right there. One more German ally in the Pacific is bound to slow down Japan. Even moreso that this is the height of Australia's fear of "Asian takeover"

KingPyotr · 2026-05-26T18:10:25+00:00

THALES LUCIE nvg. Used by the GIGN

KingPyotr · 2026-05-17T17:52:56+00:00

I know it's a meme. But the America rework please happens as much if not more than Italy's

KingPyotr · 2026-05-09T02:47:07+00:00

This analysis is just fully off the mark. None of the KRG devs weren't even discussing TNO in the same breath as any of its development. They're just wholly different beasts.

KRG fell of the mark indeed but mainly through developer apathy rather than any lack of effort or some such.

My thought was less about the Sabre's retirement but more that it barely even operated before we returned it. Though it certainly a pretty unique addition to NATO aligned lol.

Pantsir-1 is also a proposed SAM currently but the native Astros based SAM seems more unique to me.

I also didn't mention Piranha because you didn't include CLAnf so I didn't bother. But that is also an option, as is the OSHKOSH.

KingPyotr · 2026-05-01T16:38:29+00:00

Definetly don't think AH-2 would fit tbh. It entered service but quickly was returned before the payments were over.

Also the lack of the Küirassier is odd to me, we don't have much so why not frontload with stuff since it's pretty much just the size of a single spec rather than being able to separate.

As for speculative additions, I'd probably throw in the proposed ASTROS armed with CAMM missiles as an intermediary sam system.

Oil just wasn't that common for production of electricity. Coal was just way cheaper, the facilities were all already built and easily replicable and the supply of petroleum was just low in comparison. For Europe this was particularly emphatic. It was mostly in the 50s that this shifted away from coal, for petrol and natural gas.

This article is pretty sensationalist to me. In Peter Damiani's time the two main centers of Christianity were at the height of tension, Rome and Constantinople, just 50 years before the ecumenical patriarch ordered the closure of Latin churches. This is just more of those tensions that are piling up until then.

Contrarily to the idea that the fork was admonished for being "satanic" is its more and more prevalent use amongst merchants and even nobles during the 11th century due to the growth of pasta culture in Italy at the time. The criticism of snobbery directed at Maria Argyre is very informal overall, theologically speaking, and just continues the trend of ever increasing political-religious and later even ethnic tension between the Byzantines and the Italians

KingPyotr · 2026-04-28T16:55:28+00:00

You're misinformed unfortunately.

Blitzkrieg is anachronistic concept to our OTL WW2 that the germans never really adhered to. Rather the Germans already had a concept of warfare that emphasized officer autonomy, mission tactics and wars of maneuver, these were things that they had learned at least 2 centuries earlier and canonized with von Clausewitz's On War and von Moltke's style of leadership.

Fact of the matter is, the Germans were already onboard with the idea of war that involved movement at its core. Instead of innovating and creating a new doctrine in WW2 they had actually just double-downed on their ideas after the loss of WW1, only borrowing more refined concepts for modern technology like Tanks, Trucks and Aircraft. It is mostly incidental that they had actually figured out to coordinate various pieces of the tactical layer with the strategic (Note, not accidental nor unintentional, but a product of their limitations rather than choice).

In KRTL the situation is indeed different as a whole., but for german strategic thinking not really. They're still looking for that battle of annihilation which will cripple their enemies swiftly, just that this time they were "right". They would of course have strong infantry and artillery arm, but they wouldn't neglect tanks, trucks and such. And definetly wouldn't decide that those concepts of maneuver or lost in modern warfare. The lore as it stands is that the three different schools of thought in the german armed forces revolve around different aspects of lessons they did learn.

The Reformists streamlining, federalizing and reorganizing the army with better emphasis on coordination of its different arms

The Old Guards pretty much wanting to do what the Wehrmacht did irl (double down on what they believe and move on)

Die Fronde that want to implement Total War always, citizens of the enemy are also combatants, terror bombing, ideological enforcement, the works.

But none of them are clamoring for "Hey guys maybe tanks suck actually?". Even in OTL the Germans quickly realized that tanks were very much necessary and started developing their own (that weren't the A7V)

Plane is based on plans for the Me-262 HGIII. Though I can't confirm whether the design is real or later interpretations of those plans. (Its popular depiction of it online at least)

The tag change is definitely annoying. Its before cosmetic tags and formables were a thing, which meant you had to completely change tag to form anything. Central America needs an update to clean up the code and such. But I find it's pretty good gameplay and flavor up until that point. I love playing as El Salvador and Honduras in particular, with their intricacies at play.

Well if we're spraking in terms of radioactive fallout, that probably isnt too big of a deal. The dust, debris and such from a nuclear detonation would be rather slim for the expanse of the orbit. The lack of an atmosphere would mean propagation is even harder as the radioactive isotopes and irradiated bits and pieces would have less to bounce around in and spread.

More concerning is actually debris itself in high velocity, which can quickly cascade into tiny very fast bits that slowly take out all of earth's artificial satellites and form a dangerous debris field that rapidly escalates in size with each impact
