So I have abandoned the France game due to constant revolts, which are incredibly annoying to crush. Plus having to reequip your armies. Also when I knocked Prussia out of GP status by taking Rhein I lost country from my SoI - CSA jumped ahead of other contenders while I was not looking.

RE: Jingoism - it is how much your population is pro-militarly adventures. There are events that increase it. For example "Insulted!" or it can be increased during during elections. Also, you might consider loading up as Bolivia and adding a wargoal from there.

The same war with wargoals of Two Sicilies, though you could add your own AFAIK. Re:Canal - if nobody holds influence it just does not get built. I have seen games where Panama canal was enver built.

It does not, they have to call on yo, the very same way you have to manually call your allies to war. For example my puppet Sardinia-Piedmont DoWed the Swiss. I, France, twittled my thumbs until half of Piedmont was occupied. Then, finally S-P called me in and I happily enlarged my puppet with...

I conquered Tunis. 8 infamy I went to war with Ottomans over Tripoli and took Cyprus. 10 infamy I promoted state of Algeria to full statehood. I waited few years and conquered Algeria. 8 infamy. There was Prussia-Autrian war in Europe and grit my teeth and tore my hair because I could not...

Yeah, casus belli disappear fast, but the valid goals are gold and invalid are red. As for the question, I played several years into 20th century, it was not worth anymore. Unless I got into war with Brits there was nobody who could challange my Austrian empire.

:confused: No, under what pretense does Britain DoW you.

'Day Because USA!1! Good lord. Oh and Central Powers!!!!!, because Germans have like awesoem helmets.

Under what pretenses?

Encourage promotion.

There are no war events in Victoria. Well there are events that give you casus belli, but these are generic. And somewhat bugged - I got "acquire state" cause on Sokoto, except that Sokoto is an uncivilized country and you acquire "concessions" not states. 1. Austrian capitalists are but...

So I have played Austria to 1890 and I cannot get any bureaucrats in colonies. Even when pops are saying that they are going to promote, the bureaucrat pop does not appear, what the hell, I am now 4th in industry thank to this.

Which provided me a piddly 95 brigades with no organization. Conscripts are just kanonenfutter and in the end if you are facing enemy with strategic depth you are still deep in problems. My game as Austria just ended. I acquired 25.34 infamy and got DoWed by Russia. So I throw almost almost...

I bring dire and terrible news! Wheel of time runs and countries rise and fall. Netherlands have went the way of Mexico, Belgium and Osmanli before! All tremble before new Great Power! Luxemburg shall have it place in the sun! . . . Good lord, it is stable in that position...

I have absolutely no modding abilities, but I wonder if assimilation could be linked to cores. Say, Czech live in Prague. Prague has BOH core. Czechs give middle finger to South Germanity. But... Czechs live in Vienna. Vienna does not have any core that accepts Czechs. Czechs become South...

Ah, so forcing a country into SoI can then be countered by influence. Now, I understand the basic mission - to promote use of influence by GPs instead of warmongering, but... The infamy gained for forcing SoI is too high then.

The assimilation mechanics are just awful regardless of how POPs are set up. Yes, people who moved to Vienna eventually assimilated. But people who stayed back home stayed the nationality they were. What reason has a Hungarian in Budapest to become a German? Or in Bohemia some people were...

So I tried a game as Austria and it was pretty different from USA. Larger internal market prevented economic downturn at beginning. But the most glaring thing was the immedate capitalist investments. Good lord, factories everywhere! I am going to check manual. But does anybody know how use of...

So is occupation dependent on number of divisions or not? My attack on Mexico pettered out as I failed to penetrate deep enough once I smashed their initial armies. That and I should have mobilized.

Bright day Fileplanet's downlad manager is okay and I have had it for years. You should be better prepared. ;)
