  1. Crusader Kings II - Paradox Entertainement (02/12)

    The Wiki lists the following interesting Nestorian rulers: Denah Yaballalah, Emir of Socotra in the 867 start Sartag Borjigin, Khagan of the Golden Horde on January 2, 1255 Kitbuqa Noyan, High Chief of Aleppo on January 1, 1260 Abaga Borjigin, Khagan of the Ilkhanate on January 1, 1279 That...
  2. Crusader Kings II - Paradox Entertainement (02/12)

    Loving thes new heresy and reformation mechanics they've got for CK3. True, there is a bit of a gamey aspect to this as it's basically "let's create our own religon!"... Especially considering certain tenets and doctrines look to have been just for the lulz (Just look at Carnal Exaltation)...
  3. Crusader Kings II - Paradox Entertainement (02/12)

    Truth be told, even the Abrahamic family could be argued to be a bit too broad. There are similarities between Judaism, Christiannity and Islam sure but you could make the argument that each of these religions is sufficiently different from the other two to warrant its own group like they had in...
  4. Crusader Kings II - Paradox Entertainement (02/12)

    Looks like they basically took what makes Pagan Reformation cool in CK2 and basically applied it to every Religion. Which is awesome. We'll have to see next week's Dev Diary to fully judge how exactly everything works but depending on how that works and how moddable it is, it probably is going...
  5. Kaiserreich: Legacy of the Weltkrieg

    Mind you there are scenarios where the Internationale is only made of Totalists. And the Reichspakt also can end up with a pretty nasty coalition (though I'm less familiar with them all around, which is ironic considering the name of the mod...) Now, combine all of those three and you pretty...
  6. Kaiserreich: Legacy of the Weltkrieg

    Only if you keep insisting the syndicalists and the Internationale are the good guys of the mod. Which is not what the KR team wants to do: they are specifically trying to design the setting in a way that shows every factions have booth good and bad aspects within them. The syndicalists...
  7. Jour J - French AH Comics collection

    Possibly. I have a harder time finding Jour J in the place I usually saw them. That said, it might just be in the one store I usually go to to have a look... I do have the impression that they're taking more and more time to release a story though.
  8. Kaiserreich: Legacy of the Weltkrieg

    Not completely. He does restore the elections but his focus tree implies that there is a lot of monitoring. That likely means that candidates need to be approved by the regime and that there are a number of official candidates that get advantaged. In other words, Long gets a say in the election...
  9. Kaiserreich: Legacy of the Weltkrieg

    That's probably because of the nature of Authoritarian Regimes. The definition of them is basically that they are neither democratic nor totalitarian, which is extremly vague and covers a wide range of option. You can have Authoritarian Regimes that are basically failed democracies but you could...
  10. Kaiserreich: Legacy of the Weltkrieg

    Kind of sad to see the Monarchist Coup go away in the Union of Britain but to be fair it makes more sense as it basically required Mosley to behave like a total idiot and it was a bit too simple of a way to restore the UK (Get Lawrence in power then call back the King in Canada). A shame this...
  11. Kaiserreich: Legacy of the Weltkrieg

    You are a bit foregtting all the alternative path that can be taken... Edward VIII OTL was a bit of bigoted moron indeed and had a lot of issues. But in Kaiserreich, he would also have had to live in exile for 20 years in Canada, which might have changed him a bit and made him more responsible...
  12. Kaiserreich: Legacy of the Weltkrieg

    Cool. I am not sure I would qualify the Action Française as a mass movement because I don't know how many members it had at its height. However, it was an incredibly influential movement: it had its own journal, it had a youth league in the form of the Camelots du Roi which could turn pretty...
  13. Kaiserreich: Legacy of the Weltkrieg

    Thing is this is actually one of the things that makes the less sense about National France: the absence of a Nat Pop option. For one thing, Revanchism was pretty popular in France before World War I and was exacerbated during the War itself: many people wanted to recover Alsace-Lorraine from...
  14. Kaiserreich: Legacy of the Weltkrieg

    Not to mention that there are people in these faction that might be more open than the rest of the available options. In National France for example, there is De Gaulle. OTL, the man was a bit authoritarian but still more a democrat than anything else. He also had played a key role in the...
  15. Kaiserreich: Legacy of the Weltkrieg

    That's why I'm glad they put in the possibility of ATL Abidcation Crisis showing up with Edward VIII in recent updates (or plans, I'm not sure it's in yet). The guy could have changed because of how differents evolved compared to OTL but I'm not sure he'd still be a good king. Too many flaws in...
  16. Crusader Kings II - Paradox Entertainement (02/12)

    Both mods are great in their own ways, but it's true that I have been enjoying playing After the End more than A Song of Ice and Fire. I think this has to do with the fact that ASOIAF is a recreation of the book's universe. As such, you want more to play certain characters or to see said...
  17. Crusader Kings II - Paradox Entertainement (02/12)

    I'd say that it might push people to look more for what they can get out of marriages and not limit themselves to which genetic traits they can get. The ideal of course would be to find a marraige that not only can give a you a Genius but also allow you to get another crown in the family. Yeah...
  18. Kaiserreich: Legacy of the Weltkrieg

    Well, the focus tree could have various path with August Wilhelm remaining King of Poland but with different roads that can be taken including the NatPop one. Kind of like with Edward VIII that can become basically become more interested in his kingly duties than he was OTL and turn out to be a...
  19. Kaiserreich: Legacy of the Weltkrieg

    Kind of sad that this means they're removing the fact you could choose who the Polish crown went to in Poland at the start of the game... Then again, it arguably made little sense for Poland to stay 15 years without a King and under a regency council. Plus, I could see them adapting that idea...
  20. Kaiserreich: Legacy of the Weltkrieg

    That'd be incredibly funny to have the King of England in exile married to the sister-in-law of the Totalist Dictator of Britain. I kinda want an event chain where this happens just for the lulz.
