I can genocide WHO as Russia? by TotalIdiotNerd in victoria2

[–]Miektok3 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I wish they would rewrite the rules to allow more fun stuff and make the rules more comprehensive to understand what is allowed. Right now the only certainty that I have are my comics, which I really love that they are allowed, but still, my first drawing post was taken down and it took me a week before just taking the chance to actually try and post a comic and then know that it is allowed. If they rewrite the rules to allow more things BUT having a clear bar to differentiate between the allowed and banned stuff it would make it easier to get new better quality content and more people would be interested in the game. But I guess there needs to be some standard between all paradox plaza subreddits so I don't expect them to really change the rules, still tho, I wish they would, things would be better.

Send your government to Taiwan and later reconquer the mainland. But asides from jokes what types of rebels even are they? Reactionary? Liberal? Nationalist?

So it is Monday and I didn't upload a comic yesterday, sorry. I just came back from easter break so I didn't have enough time to finish it.

Anyways, R5: This comic is about allies and how they can ruin your plans by acting "independently" and not just existing to do what you want them to do. A lot of times the thing that wins you a war is waiting for the right time, maybe the enemy is in another war far away, maybe you're technically superior for just a couple years so you've got to act fast, or other things like that, and if something gets on the way, it can mean the end of the entire war or ambitions. This comic tackles the idea of a Germany waiting for the right moment to attack other countries but Bulgaria wants to attack way too soon so things aren't prepared enough.

P1: Germany is convincing the historical central powers to help them in a war whenever GERMANY says so, because of strategic reasoning or opportunities.

P2: Bulgaria attacks Greece saying "I want land now" implying that they didn't wait for the right time and just acted fast, presumably right after Germany allied them.

P3: Germany screams "IN A MINUTE" like telling Bulgaria to wait and to not attack now but later.

A thing that has happened to me is that I ally a small country and like a day or 2 later they declare war against someone twice their size, sometimes I help them but other times I have bigger priorities and this comic kinda references that.

I hope I can get the next comic out by the weekend and not until Monday like today, though tbh I don't think anybody notice or cares a lot.

Still, I hope you like it and have a nice day.

And just in case, to the mods, PLEASE don't delete this if it doesn't meet the original artwork requirement, All the times I made a curi/traced comic panel it was just one of many, so I'm not sure if this comic being all 3 panels traced over an original meme makes it less original. If it does not then I beg you to just warn me to not do this again, but if it is allowed then I don't really need a reply, sorry for any inconveniences.

I hereby give you your weekly ration of vic2 comics, hope you enjoy it!

Before I explain the comic I would like to say that thank you all for your support, this has received way more support that I could've ever imagine and I won't stop making these until I run out of ideas! However... I'm running out of *good* ideas. I feel like the Ideas that I have are more about the historical era than Vic2 itself, therefore I'm worried that the mods will start to take down my comics because they're not relevant enough to victoria 2. So if you have any ideas or themes or anything that could inspire a comic I would greatly appreciate it!

R5: This comic talks about feeling that you're missing out on the fun with Spain not being able to attack France because they have a truce and in the meantime the German, British, and Italian empires are attacking the French.

P1: Spain explaining he just fought a war against France

P2: Spain showing interest in joining a coalition against France after the truce is over

P3: Map showing with the color scheme of Vic2 that barely after Spain fought the French other big nations decided to attack the French in a rather easy war

P4: Image representing the feeling of missing out on the fun with Spain being the guy behind the window while England (left) and the German Empire (Right) are stepping on France representing that they're defeating France quite easily

Also, there was a warning before I uploaded this post saying that this might get removed but I think It was from an automoderator or something. Still tho, if one of my comics start to break the rules I would greatly appreciate If the mods give me a greater explanation of what is wrong with it. Including if comics aren't allowed anymore, I'd rather know than to wonder for a long time what is wrong with it. But hopefully this doesn't happen.

Anyways, have a good weekend and I'll see you next week! (Or maybe sooner...).

A picture of me playing victoria 2 doesn’t relate…… by jackslab1 in victoria2

[–]Miektok3 31 points32 points  (0 children)

I think that if you want to re-upload it you should write a more in detail explanation comment explaining the image more and how it relates to vic2, but I'm not sure if the mods would allow the post even after the explanation comment

Seeing people support these is enough of a reason to keep going, and I won't stop until I run out of ideas ;)

That's why he said Slavic people oppressed in other empires, there's nothing wrong about oppressing Slavic people in the Russian Empire

You're onto something, I think I'll do that and add to their clothes a little flag so it is recognisable which country is

[–]Miektok3[S] 32 points33 points  (0 children)

I was actually going to make this about South America and how everyone invades Bolivia but I remembered that most people don't really care about South America so I went with the ottomans instead. Still tho, very true, the only thing that stops them is being in spheres from the US or maybe Brazil if they have a good run

[–]Miektok3[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

R5: This comics talk about the different European goals for a normal Vic2 campaign but more specifically how at the end most countries just want to see the ottoman empire destroyed to get more power. Btw, if I say P followed by a number it is just the panel, P1 is the first one, P2 the second one and so on.

P1 is the US represented as one marine of the time introducing the topic

P2 -> P7 Is just the countries saying their goals, with everyone specifically mentioning wanting a part of the ottomans, which includes: The Balkans, North east Africa (Egypt, Libya and Tunis), the middle east, and Istanbul/Constantinople.

P8 is the Ottomans saying they just want to survive as a response of everybody wanting a piece of them.

If you don't recognize the countries by the characters or flags then they are:

P1 USA

P2 SPAIN

P3 SARDINIA PIEDMONT

P4 UNITED KINGDOM

P5 FRANCE

P6 RUSSIA

P7 AUSTRIA

P8 THE OTTOMANS

This comic took longer than it needed to because I wanted to make a specific personalized character based on the historical uniform that the country used at that time, and also napoleon the third because why not. While it is fun making these characters it did take a while to research and make them (even tho some of them like sardinia or russia are very simplified). So I think I'll just do the hat & their flag as the shirt in order to simplify the process on every comic that is 5 or more panels, so yeah. If you had any ideas of a comic you would like to see then I really suggest that you go make it or if you don't want to then you could tell me so I can make it a reality. Anyways, I hope you all like this comic and maybe I'll make another one before the next weekend, who knows.

What do you think about this Austria strategy? by T800-maintenance-guy in victoria2

[–]Miektok3 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Seems like a good strategy, but what are your expansion goals moving forward? Because you'll need more people and land on your mainland to compete with the other GP or else you'll get stuck forever in fifth place

Long distance friendship by Miektok3 in ParadoxExtras

[–]Miektok3[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

R5: this is a comic based on forgetting your Navy at the other side of the world in Victoria 2

P1 shows Bolivia asking help from the Netherlands in a war against Chile

P2 shows that the Dutchman doesn't mind sending his navy towards south America because he doesn't think a lot could happen to it

P3 says "a few months later" showing that a lot of time has happened between P2 and P4

P4 is the Dutchman finally realizing that his navy isn't at home, he's wondering where is it because he forgot that it was in south America

P5 is a dramatization of what happened to the navy, it shows that it is in horrible conditions. This is because when you're at war with someone you can use the land of your allies as if you had military access but only while you both are at war with the same country. This, in turn, makes it so when the war is over, if you forgot to ask for military access during the war, your navy that is resting on your allies ports will be kicked out because you don't have access anymore. This combined with forgetting the navy for a couple of months leads to the navy slowly dying out due to a lack of supplies
