A Buttery Pastry posted:Kind of a strange trade really. I mean, Slovakia wasn't historically a part of Poland. Now, I admit that this is obviously not a requirement for conquest, but it's just that, well, Lithuania is right there. Wouldn't it make much more sense to have Poland trade Danzig for German support in Lithuania? If Germany is befriending Poland it clearly doesn't have the same designs on Eastern Europe as it did historically, so letting the Poles take Lithuania wouldn't be a big deal. Hell, they could take Latvia and Estonia too, even if the Germans would probably want Memel. That way Poland retains access to the sea, and retakes lost territory, all the while preemptively protecting Eastern Europe from the Reds. Make more sense geopolitically but from a gameplay perspective, it could cause balance issues for German forces to have to more through Polish territory in their invasion of the USSR - it could mess up supply routes, control and ownership of the conquests and unit pathing and front logic. All of those could probably be worked around and fixed but it's a concern Randarkman posted:Best example I saw of people pluralizing words of latin origin wrong was on some MRA's blog or something where he gave the plural of clitoris as "clitorii". lol

DrSunshine posted:It'd be neat if there were ways to simulate internal threats like the breakdown of a space empire due to stagnation or something. Like, say you've blobbed up pretty well and are stable for a while. If there was some kind of "Decadence" (but not annoying like CK2's Decadence) where your empire would gradually go into a stagnant period, decline, and start to break up, that would keep the late game a bit more dynamic. I'm thinking something like Asimov's Foundation series. Like the Romans in At The Gates?

Maybe empires could have a policy on how rebellions are dealt with, which gives a modifier on how long rebellions last and how damaging they are, so it ranges from George RR Martin's Thousand Worlds style genocide and enslavement of rebels in 1 turn to tolerating planets becoming autonomus and having to reabsorb them later with diplomatic power

I expect there won't be actual battles between primitives and spacefarers, just progress bars that can get set back by event and abandoned if you need the resources elsewhere but that's just a guess

AdjectiveNoun posted:Sci fi nerds in this thread, what is it about Fungi that make them so common as an alien race in sci fi genres? (Maybe they're not so common and it's just confirmation bias, idk!) Is there some special property of fungus that makes it plausible for a sapient fungoid alien race to exist? What make fungi more suitable than plants for a non-Fauna alien race? Or is it just a case of 'wouldn't it be cool if'? George RR Martin has written some cool short stories about telepathic and mind controlling fungi, I've been reading through this dude's compilation of them https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dl8WQ8_iQSk

Bold Robot posted:I guess I just don't want to sperg that hard about even one division. I would be totally cool with just using the system from HoI2, where there were basic types of divisions and you could put a brigade on them if you really felt like it. It feels like Paradox is trying to pander to Matrix Games players who need an obsessive level of detail. I think the division builder has to work this way so that the production lines system works with it (swapping light tanks for medium tanks over time and gradually phasing them out as you ramp up production)

A Buttery Pastry posted:You misunderstand the concept. It's not simply a superpower that is moral, it's a superpower of the concept of morality. Essentially, Sweden is so moral that when it comes to admonishing other states or giving them a thumbs up for doing good, its word carries the weight of a superpower. (Yes, this is a real life concept.) Something like prestige in linguistics?

Mans posted:It''s a valid comment. I have friends that i played EU3 with back in the day and they simply refuse to play EU4 because it's comically complex compared to how barebones EU3 was (by comparison obviously). I'm guessing what happens is the core dev team comes up with a coherent system to begin with, then individual devs add new features in expansions and DLCs without fully integrating the new stuff with the old stuff.
