Wakko posted:sorry, noob question here- anyone have any tips for navigating the mid-game as communist mexico? i truck along just fine holding off the USA by following the wiki's strat of allying russia and SA at the start, then backing the new confederacy after 'american war' triggers until the USA takes a white peace. it's a lot better to go for the 1840 start and avoid losing California province to the USA if you are going for the communist mexico playthrough

Grey Hunter IV is doing an LP of both it and Second War in the Pacific at the same time!

Instead of funding US rebels you should just fund programs designed to deprive the US economy of its cheap labor. You basically want to reverse immigration flows. Make sure you're taking the 'Ereme Efeme, Baja California - XEHRM-FM' decisions to advertise how cool Mexico is in the USA. Right off the bat you want to make sure to negotiate with the Zapatistas (bc the US corps will hate you anyway) - the short term maluses are well worth it pretty quick. Get the gently caress out of NAFTA, the US won't do poo poo about it bc 9/11 happens. Immediately pursue drug decriminalization and also beef your politicians' security the gently caress up until the cartels stop thrashing around when the money spigot starts to run dry. If you're doing a commie run you might already be doing that though, sometimes the events just gently caress you... But also make sure you're not infiltrated by CIA because commies in the Americas get really highly prioritized. The US will destabilize hard on its own but they might get militant about the drug decriminalization so watch for that. Late game goal should be world adoption of trade currency other than US dollars. Moridin920 has issued a correction as of 02:10 on Feb 16, 2019 |

Crossposting this here since a lot of users have been reporting this bug: certain characters have been documented to use the Corruption and Dirty Tricks actions with unexpected frequency, sometimes even when in prison for failed attempts. The AI is actually functioning as normal, the root cause appears to be that in certain cases, the Political Operative character class, when combined with certain traits and statuses such as GOP alignment and the Underworld Ties and Reagan Administration Alumnus traits, can actually have an Integrity attribute below 0. This causes the AI to constantly attempt subterfuge actions even when it is extremely inadvisable for them to do so, such as when there is a very low success chance due to being in prison.

I found a seriously op strategy for destroying rivals. Sometime in the 2010s a bunch of charlatans start appearing and there's a chance that one will promote a "hyperloop". It's like a really crappy subway basically. You can invest huge amounts of money in the sham hyperloop company while using red tape to keep them from building in your own territory. This results in them moving overseas. They'll dig huge underground caverns below major cities which causes all sorts of infrastructure damage and can even collapse the entire city into a sink hole. I used this to clear out all of Western Europe during my "return of the Soviets" run.

You need to replace your fossil fuel plants with renewables and nuclear. have you shot for fusion tech? that cures a lot of problems.

still doing that west coast late stage capitalism demesne. my character’s lord seems to be bugged and idk if I should care. the lord fired the Wall event two years ago, and I sent some prisoner pops to contribute labor, but there’s no actual building being done. yet the lord’s info pane keeps saying it’s almost complete. just now he fired some event I never saw before called National Emergency, but still nothing happens. is this chain in the game yet? I don’t like paying for incomplete games

I kept save scumming but they always cancel the deal a few years later is this a bug?

The USA basically only understands force so you need to rush a nuclear weapon before they can invade. Then they'll gently caress off and you're mostly just dealing with Israel.

Yeah, it's a clever bit of world-building that shows off the philosophy's massive hypocrisy, but if it (understandably) bugs you you can go into polidesc.ini file and crtl+f for "GOP_Irony." The relevant entry there can be edited to whatever you like. I personally changed it to "Death Eaters."

Got into the beta for 0.19, is anybody else playing on that? Been playing as normal, checking to see if any of the issues above have been sorted out (whistful thinking, I know...). Instead I hit more weirdness a few days ago, starting with this alert popping up. I've had national emergencies pop up in previous games, but when you clicked the dropdown you got the details of the present emergencies so you can go tackle them. As you can see in the screenshot, there's nothing displayed there this time- so I'm stumped. I've looked through every other screen for an emerging crisis but drawn a blank, so I don't think it's the same bug as EOH-5049 AIDS Crisis not triggering national emergency correctly from End of History II. The icon is driving me mad, is the game just declaring emergencies over nothing now?

Any word on which version of Stellaris the save import system will work with? Also I think UNE event chain firing in the 2060s is kinda broken. That might have more to do with the EU starts easily snowballing if you just fund the military and use Ireland's nationalism CB on NI after forcing the no deal outcome to the Brexit chain.

My country has way too much goddamn cum mana stockpiled, it's way to broken that I can just initiate orgies every time I take stab hits and get back up to full. This is ahistorically WAY too early for mass orgies to be a form of effective social control and stability, and needs a nerf pronto. EDIT: Or at least make the orgies more expensive. How the hell can Britain produce enough cum to just orgy its way back from -3 after the brexit event chain? Where's the challenge? JosefStalinator has issued a correction as of 07:19 on May 2, 2019 |

Open the console and type in $CUM_PASS=0 to enable the experimental orgy balancing features. We’re not making them standard yet until we’ve thoroughly tested them because we realize how controversial cum mana balancing has been in the past. There’s a reason  became a meme in the community.

At least I got the "Cum and take it" achievement while it was still easy to max out cum mana even with the Mike Pence debuff (and before anyone else mentions it, remember the achievement explicitly says you CANNOT have the glitterhoof modifier).

Doing a decent Trump run is tough because you have to keep enough PP stockpiled to keep your "mattering" down or else your presidency ends. One poster managed to pull off a seven year run but then he got unlucky with random events and his brain melted down lol.

The only I've been able to do it is getting a high enough relationship with the various influence groups that control the political machine One benefit of having it high, though, is that it significantly increases the success chances of imprisoning and executing them

bump ok so the basic problem i see is -- do you play as a country or more of a political party? for places with multiparty systems it's more realistic but maybe less fun to play as a political party, because what do you do when you're out of power
