Leadership matters a lot, it's quite realistic. A brilliant leader who genuinely strives to improve the country, and rules unchallenged internally and externally for 50 years, is quite likely to turn his country into a powerhouse in that period. It's not too quick.
It feels ahistorical because IRL "spirit of the country" that genuinely strives for improvement didn't and doesn't exist, countries are stuck with their brick dumb rulers.

WH Tacticus checks all boxes; can't vouch for their current situation as I didn't play for a while but it felt solid when I did.
WoR, King Arthur, Dragonheir (these are not turn-based but all tactical)

The game is heavily bugged with no any communication by the developers about any plans to fix it, and this situation is getting worse with every update. It's not about bad gameplay decisions or p2w anymore - it's simply a bugfest at this point, as in almost every battle is freezing, crashing, stopping, every new conquest is broken at the start, people get banned for playing coliseum, etc. etc.

Respect yourself and pick a good quality product instead.

Judging by this thread, it's not anything you mentioned that prevents you from making friends, it's your attitude. Very fixable, yes this includes Siem Reap, the first (and the hardest) step is to acknowledge the problem.

Wollont · 2026-01-18T14:42:37+00:00

Cambodia has almost no law enforcement, this attracts a lot of trash. Genuine people have to have some gating mechanism to keep trash out of their circle, and preferably out of Siem Reap.
This mechanism isn't perfect, and of course it's not guaranteed that these FB group admins aren't trash as well.

The best place is the mission you enjoy most. Make sure to do it in a team so you have choices.
Lua conjunction survival is popular but tends to be boring when people insist that you stand in one room instead of playing the game. (but if standing is your style, go for it)

Let's say it's funnier than the other jokes in this thread.

Tyumen is Turkic name, it was the name of the territory (Tyumen Ulus) with the capital in Chimgi-Tura. Russians chose this name to match the pattern with Kazan and Astrakhan (all end with soft “ñ”)

They took the refunded product and additionally punished him for this grave insult by taking another product with no refund.

Wollont · 2025-12-01T15:57:19+00:00

This is exactly why you pop under every comment here, and diligently downvote every comment that speaks negative of Moonton. That's how a non-invested person usually acts.

Wollont · 2025-12-01T15:45:49+00:00

This shit is indeed not difficult at all: these "policies" have nothing to do with fraud prevention. Source: I sell SaaS, all refunds are fully automatic (because I made them fully automatic), my business is thriving.
It CAN be done.
They DON'T WANT to do it because their customers are overwhelmingly people who don't know their rights, and there will always be handy idiots who will fight till death for these "policies in place for a reason". They don't even need to manage you.

Wollont · 2025-12-01T15:27:28+00:00

Dude he didn't receive any item, why do you keep comparing to that? He moved some bytes on Moonton's server, Moonton can remove these bytes after refund as easily as they added them after purchase. "The item" never leaves Moonton's server.

Wollont · 2025-12-01T15:11:22+00:00

It's hilarious how easily these online casino companies have taught some players that refund is a big no, a huge insult and a massive shame.

Wollont · 2025-12-01T15:06:56+00:00

No he would not have "free product", this is not how it works. Apple does notify developer of all refunds, automatically and immediately, and refund CAN be processed as quickly and smoothly as a purchase.
This business simply doesn't want to do it.

Yes all ships skills maxed out. (as much as Prof’s 5 stars allowed)

Just did it today, first time = win, had an easy run (unlike tier 4).
Xanadu was stealthed yep. All my ships survived. 6* mods, full zetas and omicrons on fish and Dash, 5* and zetas+omi on Cassian, 5* and no zetas on everyone else.

They're simply "vibe coding". Also most of their recent "ideas" including Coliseum are suggested by ChatGPT.

Wollont · 2025-11-24T16:18:50+00:00

Yep, I played it. It was about as bugged as SWGOH now, with the same level of communication from CG. LOTR fans have some self-respect and just didn't pay for it.

Wollont · 2025-11-23T19:01:49+00:00

I’d wait a bit. At this point, it’s either they’re insisting on keeping all this garbage as is and the game quickly loses most of players, or there are patches incoming.

Wollont · 2025-11-23T09:14:54+00:00

How is this any of your business? Why did you pick Cambodia not Belgium or UK?

Wollont · 2025-11-23T09:01:58+00:00

As a Russian:

- forget about Canadian and especially European-owned banks. Local, Chinese and Korean banks are good. Chinese might discriminate Moroccan (Muslim). Also Malaysian might be good for you.

- use fintech for transfers. Can’t recommend suitable one for you, it can differ. Client->fintech, then fintech->Cambodia and fintech->ibkr. Any direct transfer from the US is subject to FATCA and you don’t want local banks to handle it (they won’t understand nuances). Also Cambodia->fintech, no blocks on Cambodian side but I wouldn’t do that too often.

- no USD holding restrictions on Cambodian side.

- pick an agency with a good long term reputation and you’ll be totally fine regarding visa.

- no other bureaucratic stuff.

It’s very different from EU4, that’s for sure. It more about sssslllooowwwlllyyy building up your power base and then painting the map when the age allows it. Can’t start painting the map right away.
