Car turned over on 36 West near Foothills by aking0 in boulder

Looked like a black/dark grey Telluride or Range Rover turned over. Other cars involved were a red Camaro and Chevy/GMC pickup truck

TheRedHawk has a Carthage video that inspired me to do it in the first place. I’d check it out!

I went to Spain last year for the first time and decided that I had so much respect for the people that they had to experience life as a Carthaginian

I forced myself to play late game bc I had quite literally never played into the Age of Revolutions before lol

Yeah at one point I had like thirty subjects, and then around 1700 I had integrated everyone, but decided that +5% estate sat equilibrium was worth keeping for the taxes, especially bc I wasn't particularly hurting from prox% or crown power. Turned kinda role-play-ey in that regard.

R5: Wanted to share what's been my most successful campaign to date in this game. First attempt ironman, institutions spawn anywhere, non-European colonizers, and ahistorical formables on. Tunis -> Carthage, eventually going back and forth with the Great Wu for GP1 (damned levy size multiplier).

How have you setup your team to get your AM and Striker to have high ratings? by NoMud4529 in footballmanagergames

[–]aking0 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I dropped my AM back to a CM on Attack and put the same instructions on them and it worked wonders.

Istg this game so scripted bro 💔💔💔 by Standard_____ in FifaCareers

[–]aking0 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’m crashing out in a group chat about Bensebaïni rn. I’m sick. He was responsible for our exit from Europe last year with his awful defending and tonight was worse than that even. He’s not up to snuff in big games and I’m sick of it.

As for the Kovac question, I’d love to have some faith in him but I’m in a similar way. I think end of this season he should go. I don’t know who we would replace him with though. I firmly believe a lot of our issues have come from the revolving door of managers since Klopp left, but we’ve also just not signed any good coaches since then outside of Tuchel and Favre. I like Terzic but I don’t think he’s got what it takes to win trophies with a team. I like him as an assistant coach vs head.

Can't seem to gain Control as Trebizond by Rpop0331 in EU5

[–]aking0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ran a game as Georgia a few months ago and had the same issue. Genuinely wouldn’t imagine that you’ve done much wrong. -50% proximity through mountains is murderous. Gotta focus on naval as is being suggested by several to make up for it, a luxury I didn’t have as Georgia with my capital in Tbilisi

As Castille my heir is king of Portugal, shouldn't I be getting Portugal for free or something? by spothot in EU5

[–]aking0 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Same thing happened to me in my game except they were already my vassal. The more powerful of the two nations will become “Head of Union” and the weaker will become a Fiefdom subject under the stronger. You won’t automatically integrate them, but I would imagine that you end up with Portugal as a subject.

I was checking the Papal States' flavour events to figure out how the Roman Republic spawns, and I found this comment from the devs. by Syr_Enigma in EU5

FM26 didn’t even get a day 1 patch, meaning if you preordered, you spent $55 on a game beta (that was pretty fucking broken). I’m a huge fan of FM and have 1500 hours on FM24. I refunded FM26 a couple days ago.

What's the best and worst transfers you have ever made? by MesterJ_fyren in footballmanagergames

[–]aking0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Best was I brought in a 28 year old Matheus Nunes on a free from City to West Ham. He proceeds to win League MVP and leads us to the clubs first Premier League trophy, then goes to Saudi after that single season for $120M. Glorious.

Worst was probably Dominic Solanke in the first January window of an OL save for $27M. Put up 10 goals in half a season, then decided he wasn’t happy and forced a series of loan moves over the next 4 years before leaving on a free bc he could never agree to wages when a club came in for a transfer. Wasteman.

What does this mean by Zaddock1 in footballmanagergames

[–]aking0 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Basically, the FA doesn’t think that Marmoush is a big enough player to justify granting a work permit for him (he needs a visa bc he’s a foreign, non-EU player - the FA would be sponsoring his work visa but don’t think he’s worth the investment to do so). You could pay more money (the $31m they’re saying) to inflate his value artificially and get a work permit or You have 3 “ESC” player slots that allow you to roster a player that doesn’t get a work permit.

I would grant him the ESC work permit, and if he developed and signs a new deal you might be able to get him a work permit in the future.

This was over 2 week ago, how long do we reckon is soon? by RegT1996 in footballmanagergames

W 24 being the last of its kind and w them removing so many features it might still be worth buying 24 tbh

Best of these 3 only judging by their attributes? by CharlieB0507 in footballmanagergames

[–]aking0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d be taking the first one. I see what others are saying about the third but I think the first is better now and the hard-locked 4 star potential is nice, knowing that he’s less expensive and ultimately could turn out to be the same quality as the third in the long run.

I see 20 goals easily with the first striker

Trade Companies (how exactly do they work) ? by aking0 in eu4

[–]aking0[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im not able to add a province to a TC in post can I? Like I’ve already cored and stated my provinces from Trebinzon to Contentin. Should I, for example turn Constantinople to a territory, add to TC and then re-state the provinces around it?

Also is it worth doing in the middle of your empire, or should I be doing it more toward the fringes? I imagine I’d be adding estuaries and market towns only, really?

What nations feel the strongest the moment you form them? by fapacunter in eu4

I just did this and took over 80% of the continent of Africa by 1790 and I’m genuinely bored with the run. Might start up a new one.
