  1. Map Thread X

    And here is the finished product.
  2. Map Thread X

    A map (WIP) of the American colonies of the Realm of the Kingdoms of France and England, based on my ongoing mega-campaign in Europa Universalis II.
  3. An Age of Miracles: The Revival of Rhomanion

    Yay. Seeing how Crusader Kings AARs transition to Europa Universalis is an interest of mine - especially ones meant to be taken as "sorta alt-historical".

    Europa Universalis 4

    ...gameplay that features hot-join, improved chat, a new matchmaking server and support for a standalone server. * Create your own history and customize your game: Europa Universalis IV gives you the chance to customize and mod practically anything your heart may desire. Can't wait. Thoughts?
  5. Ireland alt or Ireland Wank?

    ...this with a few friend and pretty much all of them have agreed any Ireland alt history would be a wank on par with the gamiest of Europa Universalis III playthroughs even though my alt timeline doesnt make Ireland especially powerful, so, naturally, I was disheartened from attempting for...
  6. Why does AH.com seem to hate the idea of a Turkish Constantinople?

    Hey I once had to struggle to remember what Byzantion is called today, I still don´t understand why. Your name is not that dated: Officially the name was only changed from Constantinople during Atatürk´s reforms in 1930. Of course Istanbul was widespread a lot earlier, having roots as far back...

    Why does AH.com seem to hate the idea of a Turkish Constantinople?

    In related news, I'm clearly 600 years old in that, if I'm not thinking about it, I still refer to Istanbul as Constantinople. Damn you Europa Universalis.

    WI:The Hungarian-Mongol war ends like Mohacs

    ...manage to get enough territories to be in position of vassalizing Aquilea by force (yes, diplomatic vassalisation only works in Europa Universalis), you can be sure that neighbours will try to make them regret this. I mean, all the time, when a country began to confuse diplomacy and...
  9. Kingdom of the North - or how a clumsy maid and a thirsty dog created a mighty empire

    ...one of my favourite characters of this timeline so far. I also like the uniform illustrations. I only had a very vague - mostly Europa Universalis 2 inspired* - idea of how they looked before now, so seeing them illustrated was nice. :) *The late medieval halberdiers have uniforms that are...

    Map Thread IX

    Well 1. If you use the departments of France rather than the regions (and similarly the Powiaty of Poland though that's harder) you can do it with administrative borders. 2. I can tell from that map that your borders are wrong even for the purpose you're describing in that Luxembourg is...
  11. Map Thread IX

    ...chosen for esthetics at a glance, rather then making sense on the ground. See, for example, the borders of provinces in games like Europa Universalis, with Cornwall consisting of the entire peninsula and other such things. EDIT: Anyway, here is an attempt at Imperial German borders with...

    Best Grand Strategy Game?

    I'd recommend against playing the earlier Paradox games actually. I actually played the Victoria I demo before Victoria II, and I have to say that from where I could see, the micromanagement is much, much worse, in V1 than VII. I'm told that overall, micromanagement has gotten a lot easier in...
  13. Best Grand Strategy Game?

    Europa Universalis III + xpax.
  14. Best Grand Strategy Game?

    ...the PI forums as opinions on which PI game to play are like rectums everybody has one. PI games tend to be complex so I would try Europa Universalis II or Victoria I if you can get them for about $10 or less play with them to get a feel of the Paradox Gaming Philosphy, then buy one of the...
  15. The Kingdom of Sicily: A Paradoxian TL

    ...I start out as the Duke of Apulia, playing Crusader Kings from 1066 (our POD, I suppose) until 1399, then convert the save file to Europa Universalis 3 (1399-1821) then converting that save file to Victoria 2 (1836-1936) before converting the save file yet again to Hearts of Iron 3...
  16. Things Fall Apart

    ...that John thinks far enough ahead to sow a seed of future disunity - intentional or not - in the Treaty of Paris. As an event in Europa Universalis 2's AGCEEP mod so aptly states: "Nothing could be more repugnant to the interests of the house of Burgundy than to unite the crowns of France and...

    Malê Rising

    I don't care for that kind of story either - I prefer to use the history-book updates to deal with Important People doing Important Things, and to use the story updates to concentrate on formative moments. And of course, the literary updates don't have anything to do with the main story at all...
  18. Malê Rising

    ...get very much put off by dialogues in which an important guy chats with his various advisers (probably from reading too many bad Europa Universalis AARs) but I'm liking the little snippets of story in this time line a lot. I liked the aside about authenticity versus reaching a broader...
  19. AHC: An Ottoman Colonial Empire

    It is quite blockable on the level necessary to interfere strongly with anyone that Spain doesn't want entering or leaving the Med. Meanwhile, the Ottomans pushing into the Western Mediterranean would meet stiff resistance - Lepanto, anyone? I'm not saying a Spanish victory is a given, but...
  20. AHC: An Ottoman Colonial Empire

    ...the 15-16-17 century, somewhat like US is today. And the last and most common thing is lack of technology. Now really? This isnt Europa Universalis so you have to develop technology o you can build ships. They could have bought the ships, they had the money, or they could have bought the...
