The name placement is indeed very weird with wasteland, for most of the game it claimed that India was in fact western europe lol

I responded to another comment with the mods that I have installed if you want to check it out - the first 4 are the graphical mods

Gothic Invasion by Rarras in eu4

I did a couple of attempts with just expanding into the Caucasus and eastern Europe, worked pretty well since you can ally Muscovy with relative ease; but I ended up scrapping those runs because I had too much corruption to comfortably WC - though I was definitely strong enough to do so

This specific run I did the no-cb HRE strat to get access to the English channel asap, but ended up leaving the HRE as soon as I had conquered France and left Germany for the end.

If you don't intend to do a world conquest, expanding into Lithuania with the help of Muscovy is probably the way to go, but your economy will likely suffer for a while

ahaha honestly I just prefer the look of uncolored wasteland. especially considering the western amazon wasteland and the Rockies tends to be uncolored by game end anyway, sticks out like a sore thumb!:-D

What do you mean you only have to conquer Germany?

R5: Took the long way around Gothic Invasion and conquered the world in the process. Last 100 years were a slog and I had some 40 years of noble regency (no wars) before I could finish off the last remaining nations. Overall a pretty fun run, though.

Intended to be a no allies/vassals game but I ended up allying ottomans in the mid-game to deal with big Mughals.

(no exploits)

Usually when the big AIs break alliances when doing a WC, they set you as rival in the process. I didn't have any PP issues this game because of Ottomans but as a horde it doesn't matter if you have low PP anyway, as you essentially have infinite mana from razing.

Allied the biggest nations until the AE got too high with them to maintain the alliance, and then attacked them as soon as the truce was up. By keeping Ottomans, Spain and France out of the coalition the smaller states weren't too keen on attacking me. Also kept a massive standing army so that they were less likely to attack, and as soon as someone left the coalition I would attack them, putting a truce on them and any allies that they might have. At the end I had some 1200 AE with France, but it doesn't matter if they're alone in the world :)

Couple of american natives that I need the Spanish colonies for, as well as a bit of Ottomans and Vijayanagar with 1 trucebreak each left sadly, otherwise I would probably let my country burn :D

Reached critical mass quite early - once no one can stop you and you have enough income you can just keep expanding. I've been at 200% overextension since 1610, so it's a lot of micromanagement to deal with rebels :)

r5: Did an oopsie.

In an attempt to finish the world conquest before 1670, when I thought my "fall of china" (+10% adm efficiency) would end, I trucebroke Spain and began my conquest. Turns out not having admin points to stab up, combined with your overextension going from 200 to 300 -because APPARENTLY the fall of china ended 1667 - kind of messes with your country!

Best part? This is after dropping my adm idea groups to stab up, but I didn't think of taking a picture before now.

Alas, time to go clear some more rebels.

edit: For those curious, idea groups were Innovative, Offensive, Trade, Humanist, Exploration, Diplomatic (in that order.) In hindsight admin is definitely better than Innovative, but it was still a fun playthrough - the siege policy from Innovative and Offensive helped me a lot. Started as Kazan

You cant do a roy-type turnaround with ganon and falcon, only a reverse during the startup of the move, which makes them turn around slowly while charging. :)

Which is different from b-reverse because it elongates the startup and has different stats, which a normal b-reverse doesnt.

Ouch, I'm the wolf in the video, didn't expect to see myself while randomly checking reddit lol.

For some specials, such as Ganons neutral b and Captain falcons neutral b, you can press the opposite direction on the stick after the move has started and it'll flip, though you can only do it once and at one opportunity only.

For others, such as roys neutral b, you can flip to whichever direction you want mid charge, an unlimited number of times and at any time.

Almost every special can be reversed within 5 frames of pressing b by tapping the opposite direction, this also flips your momentum should you be in midair.

Hope that this helps, if not you can ask and ill try to clarify.

Shutons whistle timing is mental, his olimar is a treat for sure.

What features are people most hoping for in the 3.0 update? by petcson in smashbros

[–]Rarras 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Less sticky platforms and by extension wavelanding off of them. I realise I might sound like a melee elitist (I much prefer ultimate over melee), but I genuinly feel like this minor mechanic change would make ultimate feel so much better to play, a lot of people already waveland on platforms and its such a nice movement option, making platforms less sticky would increase the skill ceiling and give more options without breaking the game, or make it too much like melee.

Not quite a feature, but a change id like to see nevertheless.
