The Narrator posted:I would simply not lose the mandate of Heaven. stop posting my scret Qing strategies for my first playthrough Seriously though, for whatever reason I really enjoy taking countries that should have been major powers but were crippled by internal issues and fixing those issues, and Vicky III seems like the game for that. I can't wait to fail at fixing the Qing multiple times before learning the game.

AnEdgelord posted:that just sounds like a recipe for a military coup as soon as the Bordermarches think about it for 5 seconds Well yeah, that’s why the genre would be fantasy. More seriously if that setting was ever used I imagine the whole point would be the Bordermarches realizing “Hey, this is bullshit” and upsetting the status quo.

“should have been major powers” is a weird deterministic thought lol but taking acerbic countries and achieving Mighty Goals is very fun it is true

The Cheshire Cat posted:Isn't this basically how tech priests work in relation to the Imperium of Man in 40k? The Imperium doesn't really quite have that sort of clean divide; as the Imperium of Man basically spans the entire galaxy and the orc empires, tau, etc basically exist in pockets surrounded by more Man. So there's no clean border for which "armed and technological" can exist; instead worlds vary in how advanced they are with some being basically feudal in technology and population to others being sprawling world-cities and highly advanced forge-worlds. Tech Priests act as like custodians of what few remaining technological secrets the Imperium has but by and large I don't think they have all that much insight into things; outside of certain rare exceptions like Belisarius Cawl. Instead they're using technology as a sort of blackbox that sometimes just works by chanting the right things before turning the knob. The Imperial Guard, Sisters of Battle, the Imperial Navy, the Astartes, techpriests, etc, all use very advanced weaponry and produce them in very advanced facilities; but thousands of years of slowly losing knowledge due to a combination of doctrine and chaos infiltration has led to the inner works and means of producing the means of producing such things being lost to time. Irreplaceable to the point that such forge worlds become of absolute strategic value to the Imperium that must be defended at any cost.

Spiffing Brit appears to be playing as Jan Mayen, which implies the game is perfectly balanced. Sadly I don't have time to watch it until tonight.
