I come to this country as boy, got job in new cement factory. 14 hours a day, seven days a week, .50 an hour. A good living, better than in the Old Country. I now manage cement factory, make lots of money, having big house for wife and nine children (after first seven died after six months). I believe in Zululand.

That Rhode Island fellow I hired to translate this odd book Colonel Twitting-Mooreshead-Chestersonshireton brought to me from a rip-roaring campaign in Arabia has gone, well, he's gone quite daft. He refuses to leave his basement and his writings on the origin of the White Race, while very authoritative and convincing, use such odd words and phrases.

Can't wait for the reveal of extended timeline victoria III which this definitely is confirmation of! It's loving Rome isn't it.

Wait, looking at the paradoxcon schedule and ticket packages... It looks like emperor-level con goers get to make their own character to be put in the game in a later patch.

I'm still a little skeptical they'll CALL it Rome II, given the behemoth of Total War. Seems like terrible marketing. Europa Universalis Rome II would be a terrible name.

It'll obviously be called Hannibal to avoid confusion.

How are your factories not fully populated by skeletons now? The skeletal remains good should have already tanked in price a decade or two earlier which means easy skeletons for you.

I've had artillery fire into the ground killing itself when it tried to aim at troops coming up a hill, so much for holding the high ground.

If it's a Rome game it will be called SPQR because of the hint about it being easy to spell. There are a few interpretations for the bard thing on the official forums. Bard -> Shakepeare -> Julius Ceasar - > Rome game Bard -> Homer -> Iliad/Bronze age game Bard -> Bard's Tale -> Fantasy Game Johan might be having another go at making Runemaster

alright okay, here's what i'm thinking. bard is a profession, right? most POPs are categorized by profession, such as labourer, craftsman, capitalist, artist (read: bard). so it could be that bard is one of the new POP types which hints at a vastly more complex pop system in the new game which is definitely victoria 3

algebra testes posted:Actually the funniest thing would be if they released a game covering eu4 to hoi4 but called it something else and made it fun and accessible without ridiculous free market mechanics that drove all the turbo nerds mad because it wasnt victoria 3. It should start earlier, 1789 with the French Revolution and then run it through to 1920. Name it Blood and Iron after Bismark's famous speech.

Paradox weekend sale on Steam. Some of the newer DLC is discounted only a little or not at all, as usual with these sales, but good time to get the back catalog stuff. https://store.steampowered.com/sale/pdxcon/
