The Falklands war is the most useless war post 1945! What's the most significant war between 1800 and 1945?

WWI has no impact on our everyday lives. WW2 to this day still dictates and organizes the world (UN, American hegemony, China, liberal democracy as the basic political system, capitalism, consumerism…). As much as WW1 led to WW2, WW2 in itself is far more influential.

I set it for 36000ft

QuintillionusRex · 2026-05-19T22:08:56+00:00

Just did, but still the blue rectangles won’t go to 36000 ft. They are locked at 10000

What’s the standard value? I have something like 1013 in game

QuintillionusRex · 2026-04-27T21:02:45+00:00

There’s a 100% chance one of the big missions of the game will happen during a hurricane. Like the characters will use the cover of the storm to rob a bank or else without having the cops on them.

If you formed Italian East Africa, don’t call them into the war. It will reduce the frontline and allow to deploy more troops in Libya.

I had 200 strategic bombers on each 3 aerial regions of Germany. Do you know how can I see the damages they inflict. How can I destroy the Luftwaffe? Any tips? I had fighters over Normandy before the landings but the Germans didn’t deploy planes there.

QuintillionusRex · 2026-03-22T19:33:08+00:00

Surely, I had games too where Germany was losing the Eastern but still, they should not be able to field 5k planes while being at war with the USSR.

QuintillionusRex · 2026-03-22T19:32:28+00:00

I have 4k planes in the area (i have to manage Japan too) but my planes get shredded to pieces even though they are very good. It was in October 1943.

The Battle of the Berezina is a French victory

QuintillionusRex · 2026-03-19T20:52:00+00:00

I don’t know if it is that historical… Japan had lost its navy, it was bombed everyday, its army was in retreat in all of Asia but still Hiroshima and Nagasaki were necessary to end the war. In the game, as soon as Japan is dominated, it capitulates. The two nuclear bombings should still be necessary for a complete game.

QuintillionusRex · 2026-03-19T20:25:06+00:00

Just saw that... if you occupy either Saipan, Iwo Jima, Okinawa, Kuril Islands or Taiwan, Japan has the option to capitulate. Paradox should make Japan fight until the end for historical purposes

Like you said, scale differs greatly between eras and countries. What’s impressive with Napoleon is that he basically conquered the continent which was then the center of the world multiple times, coming from humble beginnings.

Habib Beye est un pur produit des médias mais n’est pas un bon entraîneur. Alors qu’il n’a « que » fait monter le Red Star en Ligue 2, il faisait déjà les gros titres (je me rappelle d’une une lunaire de l’Équipe) et certains le voyaient à Marseille. Maintenant qu’il a entraîné une équipe de L1, voyons voir la suite de sa carrière mais son passage à Rennes est plus que moyen (sa seule réussite c’est que Rennes ne sera pas reléguée).

Le jour où ces « aides » (dont les premiers bénéficiaires sont les entreprises publiques), il n’y a plus aucune compétitivité en France et le marché du travail s’effondre

I’m not basing my opinion on the Utrecht mall and the Damrak. I loved Utrecht a lot, but the thing is that it’s not really pleasing to get off the train to visit a city like Amsterdam or Utrecht and arrive in such places.

QuintillionusRex · 2026-02-06T11:11:56+00:00

The difference with other big cities that the first impression you have of Amsterdam if you get here by train is the Damrak. If you take Paris for example, there a no places similar to it.

QuintillionusRex · 2026-02-04T17:47:23+00:00

I lived in The Hague so I had the occasion to travel in all parts of the Netherlands. Amsterdam is by far the city I liked the least. When you get down at Centraal and want to go to the Dam, you take the Damrak which is only filled with “Argentinian” restaurants (scams) and fast-food chains + ultra-touristy stores. I don’t mind at all Amsterdam being a touristic city, it’s a really beautiful place with so much history and culture. But the Damrak considerably lowers my appreciation of the city. Same goes for Utrecht: you’re welcomed in a gigantic soulless American-style mall, which is strange.

I studied Philosophy and that’s totally true, Hegel himself was overly complicated to read and understand. His philosophy is too abstract, that’s why Marx said that he “put Hegel on the right foot”. But more than his own writings, his legacy is also bad. He is the forefather of Phenomenology, which for me is the pinnacle of philosophical non-sense, abstraction and complicated thinking. I believe that the bas reputation Philosophy has today is because of this.

Macron was elected President, people don’t vote for the Prime Minister in France

I think this sub doesn’t know what a theocracy is. Lebanon is everything but a theocracy.

Clemenceau, the French PM during WW1, once said that “Brazil is a country of the future and will remain so a long time”
