You had to say that name...

Guy makes a good mod.   :mellow:

Yeah, even if it is a bit too deterministic. It would have been interesting to see what could have been done if Victoria had EU3's event engine. OHGamer's working on the Vic source code, though, so perhaps we'll see that eventually.

Picked up DV, still holding off on Armageddon pending the discovery of a good single player centered mod.

I"ve heard good things about Kaisserreich: Legacy of the Great War.
I've heard likewise for HOI: WIF
Still have to test them though.
Have been plaing mod 34: it's pretty good so far, though it suffers from broken english.

I tried Kaisserreich: Legacy of the Great War in a fit of boredom. Even went through the hassle of the mod manager thing.

Wasn't really worth it. Everybody mostly just sat there while events fired and forced the AI to do stuff.

That was also my experience.  It was fun for a bit, but the fact that there never seemed to be a "world war" of any note was just silly.  The only wars I ever ended up having were Germany vs. France/Britain/Italy--wherein France was eventually overrun.

The 2nd Civil War for the USA is also pretty stupid.
The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.

You can have a fun game as Germany early on though. An early war with France, Italy and Poland can be pretty tough.

Jet: I see.

it's good to hear some other opinions on that. HAdn't tried it yet.
From what I gathered it seems more like a story that is told rather than a real WW

He's rather poorly regarded due to his snivelling and general cuntish behavior.

Also, his posting in pink is laughable.

Ahh right.

The pink posting - well he's gay, isn't he? Not meaning to stereotype or anything, but isn't pink (or purple?) the colour for gay pride?

PINK is in fact the colour of elephants when one is sniffing ether.

Perhaps you can apologize and we'll forget the whole thing ever happened.

Martinus and garbon have soured us on gays.  Well, Sheilbh is alright, because he's one of those old school gays that has class.

Is that offensive? Sorry if so. I just thought that perhaps the reason for that choice of colour was due to that, another indication, as it were? I don't know his reasoning, I was just suggesting what I thought it might be. But again, sorry if you got offended by that, though I did say I wasn't meaning to stereotype.
