BAD TOUCH!!!@Shock let's not push it further since this is a TNO thread, not a "PDX sucks" thread.
Well, look at this cool Taboritsky art:

I feel it's a bit petty to complain about that, given it feels like every mod these days has several 3/4+ way civil wars.
You know, I have to say I've never had that happen in my games.But the Hoi4 AI can’t handle the staggered way the uprisings in the vanilla Spanish Civil War occur. As a player it’s not too hard, but the AI simply can’t do it, which means there’s always a four sided free for all when the computer controls Spain, and half the time the faction which is winning handily simply collapses because half its land is gone. It’s one thing to have three sides from the start, like Kaiserreich‘s SCW, and I understand what the vanilla HOI4 devs were trying(generally they did a pretty good job with Spain) but the AI just can’t quite handle it.
Found this on TVTropes, for anyone that is interest. Burgundy's full focus tree:
So, Kaya path is a non go for everyone trying, it is still not fully implemented yet so you always collapse
A bit of Fridge Horror regarding Brittany....
While playing as any other country, whenever Brittany sets up their black market luxury good trading operation in my country, unlike with their arms trade, I have always been hesitant to crackdown too hard upon them. Due to a combination of me staying in chararter in most cases as a reformist/liberal minded leader for said country (Who I imagine would be partaking in some of those black market luxury goods themselves, the same way that Stalin in OTL had his private collection of American Western movies, or Kim Jong Il owning a MacBook Pro), and me not wanting to be the 'fun police', since the description only mentioned Brittany smuggling in stuff like questionable literature, nostalgic propaganda, foreign alcohol, entertainment media, cars, jewellery, luxurious clothing, etc...
That was until I actually played as Brittany and discovered the way that black market luxury trade works. In that you obtain the merchandise by setting up a black market trading operation in a country, which you can only do if their stability is already below 50%. Afterwards, you will have a random chance of gaining new goods that you can sell somewhere else...
Now, exactly what kind of black market 'luxury goods' does an unstable, and most likely poor and wartorn country reliably produces a steady supply of, and will have a high demand overseas?
That's right, I am talking about human sex trafficking, mostly of desperate people that will do whatever it takes to set out of their situation in hopes of a better life (Or worst, parents selling one of their kids to the black market in order to feed the rest of them).
And of course, it goes without saying that Brittany is absolutely engaging in drug trafficking as well.
By comparison, I wonder if the flavouring events of them smuggling copies of Captain America comic books, film reels of Italian cinema, and bottles of Russian vodka would almost be a mere side hustle compared to what really brings in all the money....
Don't think it can hurt to spoiler-mark it, but nonetheless very... enlightening, to say the least, I must say. Burgundy has more internal problems than meets the eye!
Timoshenko appears on the West Russian War map as leading what appears to be an army in Karelia invading Finland (the formation is named "NORTH" and has an XXXX marker which should indicate an army, but given the seemingly random way the numbers of Xs on each counter are marked, it's not entirely clear if this is the intended meaning) but I'm not clear where he went after that. I'll go take a look now, and let you know if I find him. Although for that matter, I do wonder where Tolbukhin went in TNO; I checked the warlords a while ago and he doesn't appear as a general for any of them so far as I know. I suppose it's possible he died in one of the many wars, which would be a bit of a shame.Where is Timoshenko in TNO?
I mean, he died in 1949 IOTL, so there's that.Although for that matter, I do wonder where Tolbukhin went in TNO; I checked the warlords a while ago and he doesn't appear as a general for any of them so far as I know.
