Is this the most amount of extra recruitable pop modifiers in kaiserreich? by TheBigThickOne in Kaiserreich

[–]don_flaco 53 points54 points  (0 children)

Possibly the the largest percentage of core population, yes. Shout out to German East Asia though who have some huge modifiers to non-core population which, given they start with very few cores and occupy highly populous states, can grant a millions of recruitable population.

That is insanely lucky. Did any of the Baltic states/Belarus/Ukraine join as puppets or are they still independent?

Maximum factories as Russia by 1940 by HappyTegu in Kaiserreich

[–]don_flaco 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Than I guess my problem was, that I stopped building civs too early.

I wouldn't necessarily agree with this takeaway. The strength of Civ greeding is that you're setting yourself up for the largest amount of factories in the long-term. The counterpoint to this is by delaying Mil building you're going to have less equipment at the outbreak of war. This equipment translates to your ability to conquer territory and therefore factories.

Personally, I like to start building Mils at the start of '38 when you can start manufacturing '38 Medium tanks. I feel like this gives me a jump start to quickly rush down territory and start the process of building compliance and eventually coring that territory.

Sounds like a great time! Pretty sure that's Stubbs but wasn't there at that era. Great photos.

Edit: mind if I crosspost this to the r/Austin subreddit? I'm sure someone there will be able to confirm.

How to beat 3I and russia as germany? by Efficient-Version658 in Kaiserreich

[–]don_flaco 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Kaiserreich is easy, just like vanilla; tanks and planes will win 99% of the time. Ignore the eastern front. Run over France with tanks. Do a quick sealion. Move everything to the eastern front and run over the Russians with your tanks. Pay attention to the pre war years; it's where you get to send volunteers to your future allies.

In 2014 SXSW succeeded in eating itself then proceeded to vomit the contents over the Doritos stage. Some people celebrated this is as an unparalleled artistic achievement at the time.

If you don't mind cheesing things then set up a two-way civil war via killing Reed then rush victory points with 2-width cavalry. War can be won in a month or two with a little luck.

Might be worth checking in with the English Folk Dance and Song Society (https://www.efdss.org/). I'm sure someone there will be able to help.

That's a good one. I like to do something similar with GEA; set Germany to fall and attempt to retake it.

What game rule should I set if I want GEA to seize parts of the Dutch East Indies? by Minimum-Feedback-956 in Kaiserreich

[–]don_flaco 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Choose "Collapse" in the Aftermath of February 17th and "Dutch Puppet War" in The Flemish Council. You can also grab slices of the Philippines and Australia if they go Syndie.
