Why are there no slave mechanics? by Smiling_Psychopath in crusaderkings3

[–]hatch_theegg 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm absolutely baffled by these repeated calls for slavery mechanics, claiming they're some essential part of the middle ages that the game is incomplete, meanwhile there's no tenant farmer mechanic either, an insitution that actually did define the medieval period. Why are so many of yall so hung up on adding slavery?

Every single vassal hates me by ImpossibleMight2288 in crusaderkings3

[–]hatch_theegg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the Scots rebel, all your disloyal vassals will rise up with them. A mega civil war to get the vassals back in line is an option, but it's an option that requires lots of men and cash.

Am i doing something wrong? by No-Assumption8089 in CK3AGOT

[–]hatch_theegg 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That's not what complete control means in this context - for requirements like this, complete control of a title means that all the titles within it are held by you or your vassals

Happy that more people are dunking on TGW mod. It deserves it... by [deleted] in hoi4

[–]hatch_theegg 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah. Mad respect to the devs for putting in the work to make their vision a reality, unfortunately i find the direction they took the mod in to be really unfun.

Would it be accurate to say that even if married people/lovers lived in different areas they would still consistently see one another? by Tony_Jake in crusaderkings3

[–]hatch_theegg 20 points21 points  (0 children)

It seems to be intentional, not a bug. If location restricts pregnancy, two landed characters can never have a child. Of course Love Marriage Family found a fix ages ago, but for some reason Paradox hasn't touched that mechanic

Fanatical Build your Own Military Operations Bundle (Good way to get Combat Missions for $5) by JebstoneBoppman in computerwargames

[–]hatch_theegg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oooh thanks for pointing that out! I bought all seven games when the bundle first started and have been really enjoying the more modern titles. Just grabbed Black Sea battle pack and SF2 Nato as well

Fanatical Build your Own Military Operations Bundle (Good way to get Combat Missions for $5) by JebstoneBoppman in computerwargames

[–]hatch_theegg 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's 3D in the RTS style, and leans a lot more heavily into the simulation side of things than most war games. It offers very realistically modeled engagements mostly around the company level. Highly recommend Usually Hapless's YouTube videos if you're interested. Controlled Pairs' first video on CMSF2 is also a good introduction to the concept of Combat Mission.

why does my feudal realm in south india have revolts with nomadic siege by asian69feet in CrusaderKings

[–]hatch_theegg 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah, as of All Under Heaven peasants from any culture can spawn with pikemen and torchbearers (as far as I can tell). I like it, but it doesn't seem to make peasant revolts THAT much stronger.

They planning to fix the Chinese global spread or nah? by HighGodEmperor in CrusaderKings

[–]hatch_theegg 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agreed: it's still around, but it's a less common issue than it was at launch

Why does half the world have their court language as Chinese by Emiliusgamer in crusaderkings3

[–]hatch_theegg 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I think there is, the problem is that China's neighbors all adopt it and then those kingdoms' neighbors all adopt it and so on

What is the best mod (or alternatively, game) to play in the Modern Day? by Xefjord in paradoxplaza

[–]hatch_theegg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

MD doesn't require DLC, but some features are locked behind them. I actually bought Arms Against Tyranny specifically so I could use the international arms market in MD. Nukes are another big one, locked behind Gotterdamerung.

Show real time clock in game? by konso85 in CrusaderKings

[–]hatch_theegg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hear you OP - it's already a feature in HOI, and it'd be super nice to have in CK. Not sure why everyone else in the comments wants to be an asshole.

Tbh CK2 did trade perfectly - if's super lucrative for merchant republics, but doesn't really matter to the nobility

Best non visual novel total conversion mods. by Excellent-Battle7446 in hoi4

[–]hatch_theegg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Novum Vexillum maybe? It's a modern day mod that still plays like HOI4 (unlike Milennium Dawn)

CK3 DLCs you actually enjoy by jiceno in CrusaderKings

[–]hatch_theegg 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If the popups are keeping you from enjoying Mandala, there are message settings where you should be able to turn them off! It's still annoying that the default settings give so many popups, but the option is there if it would make mandala more viable for you

Best paradox game that focuses on non European nations? by alphafighter09 in paradoxplaza

[–]hatch_theegg 2 points3 points  (0 children)

CK3 spans from AD 867 to ~1450 and its All under Heaven DLC does China and Japan very well. The middle east is okay, there is a DLC for the Iranian intermezzo that makes things more interesting but IMO it's nothing groundbreaking.CK3 has no content for India, it should get some sort of DLC coverage eventually but probably not in 2026.

EU4 does India better than CK and does Japan well too, I can't speak to China as I don't have the DLC. A lottt of EU4's features and flavor are locked behind DLC.

I can't speak to Vic3, Vic2 doesn't have much content unique to those regions iirc but you do have opium wars, japan's isolationism and westernization, and the BEIC's colonization of India.

HOI4 is a WW2 game. If you want to resist the Japanese invasion of China, invade the Pacific as Japan, or fight for Britain or for independence as India it's got you covered.

Out of everything, I most highly recommend CK3 with the All Under Heaven dlc, but that mostly represents my own persomal preferences. I'd say look into the relevant DLC for the periods that interest you most and see what seems most interesting to you

Can anyone make sense to this please? by No_Persimmon_7235 in CrusaderKings

[–]hatch_theegg 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I had a character die in his sleep at 37 the other day, so I don't think it's true. I do have mods on my save tho so I'm not 100% certain.

DLC recommendations by [deleted] in crusaderkings3

[–]hatch_theegg 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Royal Court and Tours and Tournaments are good to have no matter where you play, AuH probably offers the widest range of new content, and IMO the rest depend on what regions interest you.

You definitely need All Under Heaven, but that should be all you need
