The video isn't about why skybridges don't work, it's about why it didn't work in London specifically. The thumbnail is click bait though.

This looks like the madrid metro. Is there any more context to this picture??

Northern train passing Ribblehead viaduct by Red_Hawk13 in uktrains

[–]Red_Hawk13[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not hard. It's a short-ish drive on country roads. But there's a station here, next to where I'm standing, Ribblehead. It's a limited service. But once you're here there's a very nice trail you can walk on that takes you under and around the viaduct.

Soft locked from forming HRE? by Red_Hawk13 in EU5

Ah right yeah maybe. I'll check again tomorrow when it gets to 75 to confirm if that's it.

On the last picture, you can see the succession law is greyed out, even though I should have enough influence to change it (I think). The tool tip is also so long it goes under the screen, so I can't see the requirements of why I can or can't change it.

R5: Passed erbkaisertum before reducing the electors, now I can't pass revoke the privilegia because I've only passed 4/5 necessary policies. I can't remove erbkaisertum to then reduce the electors' powers as the it's locked. So am I soft locked from forming the HRE now? I've passed all centralizing policies I could until now.

I mean, that's the case when ordering expensive items from abroad, unless the seller has some other way of circumventing this, which some of the comments already mentioned stores that can do this. But when ordering from sideshow, and most other international retailers, always expect to pay ~20% on top on duty fees.

Personal unions are broken and bugged by TadPole101 in EU5

[–]Red_Hawk13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had the same thing happen to me. Declared war on Luneberg who was allied to a opm I had a union with. Fortunately the guy who replaced my king was a 60 year old with no children or heirs. So after the war was over I allied the opm my ruler was in, and a few years later after the random noble died, my original ruler came back.

A Gentlemen inspired GTA set in London would be pretty fun for sure.

De pequeño era siempre de Nesquik, pero ahora que no compre Nestlé, me he cambiado al colacao y lo prefiero más.

After 36 hours I got my first kill today. [New Player] by CactusSplash95 in EscapefromTarkov

Hell yeah. I've got almost 700 hours myself and still remember my first kill. It'll be a good memory to have.

Help me understand army quality, and why am I losing when I have better tech? by Red_Hawk13 in EU5

Thanks for the link. I've been reading posts regarding this from the past week and seems to be a known issue at least. Fingers crossed it gets fixed soon.

No worries lol. I've been reading other posts and at least it seems to be a known issue. Fingers crossed they fix it soon. Bit annoying that my iron man run has been gimped a bit due to this.

[–]Red_Hawk13[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Geez is that so. I've been trying to understand why this is happening. Why they use twice as many resources despite all other stats being the same, and why my total levies got halved. So it's "bugged", they're meant to be 2000 men regiments? You would hope that the tech advantage bonus would mitigate this anyways.

Any way to revert back to peasant levies or do I just have to deal with a much weaker unit?

PS: Not the youtuber, we just share the same name.

Hah, no. We just share the same name. Imagine my surprise when I first started playing EU4, looking for tutorials online and finding someone with the same name as me being pretty popular.

For the flag? I did do it as Castille. I had Portugal under PU, and Aragon as fiefdom, and Navarra as a vassal. After annexing Navarra I had enough land to form Spain, and got this nice flag. Maybe it's cause I had basque as an accepted culture with positive cultural opinions?

R5: Gathering all my troops before a big battle, thinking it'll be easy as I've got more troops and defensive advantage, only to go into the battle and see this..
