You don't have to have the DLC, just the host. But the big problem with kaiserreich right now is most of the countries don't have events or trees still, and the default tree sucks rear end

Whenever I've tried playing with you guys without hosting though the game slows down to 1 speed.

For HOI4 I've successfully had 2 games as Romania, both fascist and communist, so now I'm going to try and take the USSR and turn them into the Russian Empire and own as much of Asia as possible.

England owned me thoroughly sounds about right. ireland is one of the harder starts in euiv Unfunny Poster posted:Are the Ottomons the best nation to start off as for new players? i'd personally say so, though i'm an ottoman fan in general. people also recommend portugal if you want a 'peaceful' game, but euiv is a game about war, and when it comes to war, the ottomans are the hardest country to gently caress up. in general i'd recommend starting as a larger country; unlike in ck2, there's no shortage of challenges to overcome even as an initially-large country, especially if you're new to the game. if you start as a little one-province minor, odds are pretty good you'll end up sitting on your rear end for 15 years and then getting annexed... not a fun way to learn the ropes!

In our kaiserreich game that we finished austria capitulated in a week and spain capitulated in 3 days. But the shortest a country lasted was when the ottomans joined our last war against the co-prosperity sphere 1 day before it ended and lost everything.

The tier 1 and 2 nations in EU4 are extremely powerful because of their events and modifiers. Like how Venice gets the one that gives them 0.5 RT and stays with the country after tag switching. It's ridiculously OP. Or the one that gives the Netherlands a PU CB on GB

Kaiserreich is just an alternate start mod where the democratic nations lost WW1 so there's way more communists but instead of straight up fascists, there's a lot of authoritarian monarchies instead

Does HoI IV Kaiserreich still have basically the same nation setup as the DH version? I really liked the way India was set up, with the northwest being British Raj remnants waiting for the counterrevolution, the Bengal-based communists in the east, and the loose coalition of anyone that doesn't like either of the other two in the south.

Plutonis posted:The Tension and faction system is loving gay!!! On our last session of HoI4 kaiserreich all of the events of countries not in our faction fired again leading to a second Iraqi and Syrian revolt. The mod needs work for sure lol. My least favorite thing has to be peace treaties. If you don't make sure to give all of the pieces of a country to your puppets the AI that has 12 points will swoop in and take all of the provinces you missed. Japan looked so bad at the end of our kaiserreich game. I need an option to kick countries that do that poo poo out of my faction.

So my brother got HOI3 on sale and wants to play it before spending money on HOI4. I've never played it but he asked if there is a lot of difference between how you play that and HOI4 which I guess I'll ask here. Also is the multiplayer better or worst than HOI4 in terms of mechanics & stability?Lumpy the Cook posted:We should continue the Memewealth game this weekend.

Thank you Larry Parrish for this info. in Darkest Hour, where KR is from, it has a ton of cool alt history events and fun worldbuilding that's been built up over a decade of modding. HOI4 kaiserreich is... some new countries i guess? It's neat sure but it's not the real thing imho

It's got a ton of micromanaging and endless spergy OOB for you to mess with, and also the AI is fundamentally broken and can never defeat you even with massive handicaps. It also crashes a lot and has desyncing issues so it's bad for MP even if you like it

OK thanks for the info on HOI3. In HOI4 I played Russia, turned them fascist with the goal of not trying to be involved. I ended up being attacked by the Axis and had to fight. I ended up taking a fair amount of Asia and some of south/eastern Europe.  I didn't take Mongolia because I just didn't see the value in it.
