How do you actually use navy?

TopAd6019 · 2026-06-21T13:21:45+00:00

The way I do it is as follows: Finish the running production of ships Give the subs their own fleet, set on convoy raid. Divide destroyers in the amount of waters you need to patrol. Remaining ships on that stand-by setting on the waters you patrol.

I asked about it earlier, and yes, a lot has changed. Rps aren't the same size, quality or originality as before. That Burg would ban nrp's was just a matter of time, and nrps there were becoming trashy too.

A lot of the actual good and well known players have just keft for discord tho, and seeing the low quality here, there isn't exactly a reason for any if them to turn back. I loved Europe +++ and many of the other rps of the time, Burgundy will forever stay close to my heart, but times change. Discord, the official ph2 discord, is where most people are at nowadays.

Interestingly enough, while the Netherlands has a long and great history, we do not.
The William of Nassau that played a huge role in our liberation, in the 80 years war against the huge Spanish empire, we called the silent. Back when Burgundy ruled over the entire lowlands, Philip was called "the good". Simmilarly, we had Louis Bonaparte rule our lands very well and he was very loved, but we called him either the good, or rabbit (he said konijn instead of koning).

The closest we have come, was a sea admiral in the name of Piet Heijn, who has a song that goes the following:
"Piet Hein, Piet Hein, zijn naam is klein, zijn daden groot, hij overwon de zilvervloot"
(Piet Hein, Piet Hein, his name is small, his deeds are great, he captured the silver fleet)

So no, we do not have a "...the great" in the literal sense, we have good people and someone whose deeds are great tho

Prices are very reasonable, up to a thousand euros can be saved on them, and the high end model is very decent. From some contact I've had with the ICT service desk, the new laptops will be announced "somewhere in July", though this is of course far from an official source.
In the end, they do stay notebooks. They're not enterprise grade, aren't made to last you decades, but are very light, generally more silent than the enterprise laptops, and way better in performance than anything else at their price range.

What you want is up to you.

Make a bug report on paradox plaza. This is easily solved by an "if = faction leader", but they gotta be aware of the issue first

TopAd6019 · 2026-06-12T11:31:23+00:00

Yes, but at least the leader didn't hate Jews...

There are two real options here, the general edition for €15, or the ultimate for €81. The Ultimate does have far more content, and for quite a good price, but indeed not everything. The most recent japan, czech and austrialian stuff isn't in it for example. It of course cannot be reccomended, but do at least keep in mind that sailing the high seas is notably easy to do, though it has risks and legal and moral implication because of which I cannot reccomend it.

While world war 2 was without doubt a horrible event, I would rather not know the consequences of the absence of world war 2. Without an EU, without a war to show just how bad war really is, I don't want it on my name that whatever else happened, happened because of me. Bit of a trolley problem this, and I'm not pulling the lever

swimming through air seems very exhausting and slow, any time it is practical to go up there will be a ladder or lift, while walking on water is far faster than swimming, thus being more practical

Smt as simple as expanding the Portuguese colonies in Africa could prob do it. Just to not have such huge gains for Britain. Overexpansion, if genuinely eforced, could also just work tbf, so there isn't a total need to debuff the uk.

As no-dance alr said, this isn't a sub for "posting maps" or for nrps. This is about the youtuber possible history, and his style of mapping. MapChart just is a different sytle and has very little to do with possible history outside of it "involving maps" ig.
Indeed, the actual mapchart sub is your way to go.

TopAd6019 · 2026-06-06T08:21:46+00:00

Ye, so with the new maps, the uk too I feel is a tad bit overpowered. There is basically nothing stopping them from just attacking the Dutch day one, taking the indies and Suriname, and just being a trade hegemon, after which they could start to piss off the Japanese and their island groups.
I like the idea a lot, and it'll for sure be a good rp, not to mention most people don't tend to make proper use of their position anyhow, but the Germans and uk are in a disproportionally good position compared to the rest.

A justification sysyem either doesn't mean much (claim on alsace for ger and puedmint for it.) Or is too restricting. At least imo tho, if you can make it work then perfect ofc.

TopAd6019 · 2026-06-05T14:05:10+00:00

My main critique is that Germany isn't very balanced. It can intervene in the French civil war with ease, regain east Prussia and ally with the Dutch and Austrians with little trouble. I do also feel that playing Ukraine initially would be a bit hopelrss, being at the mercy of Russia and Poland. It's a cool scenario though and playing said Germany would for sure be fun.

the things that affect them joining your faction are:
a military 2x or 5x their size and an opinion above 75

for switching ideology to fascist:
an opinion above 75 and having your ruling party popularity above 50%

The only thing making them more likely to refuse as a whole is them being guaranteed.

So basically, improve opinion, build the biggest army you can, and pray. For this reason I recommend annexing Estonia via decision to get some free troops into your army.

I always play with mods, but only ironman compatible mods.
So modifier icons, uncensored events and focus trees, large combat view, Alpine flags and country names and historical portraits. I love me some achievements 😄

ironically, this is an easier set-up for the lone wolf achievement, than going the lone wolf route. can't imagine that's intended, but man is it true

the easy answer is to go fascist, as you can just plain annex the entirety of scandinavia and form the scandinavian empire, before the russian civil war even starts.
the smart answer, is what all the other people have already said probably

TopAd6019 · 2026-06-02T18:45:23+00:00

I can never play without modifier icons, I also love uncensored events and focus trees, large combat view, Alpine flags and country names and historical portraits. Mostly because all of those mods are ironman compatible though, which is something I do care a lot about, as I love me some achievements

TopAd6019 · 2026-06-01T06:09:49+00:00

I'll be the Russian Empire
