You mean when the Confederates invade India?

Zmiinyi defenders: "Russian warship, go fuck yourself."

It will never happen in a Paradox game. The Confederates invading India requires the ability for the AI to launch a naval invasion, unless they cross from the Bering Straits, which isn't an impossibility for P'dox. But my point is anything requiring a naval invasion won't happen.

Why would the Confederates be fighting the British? They'd much more likely be on the same side.

Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.

The British would simply add the Confederacy to their global anti-slavery interdiction operations.  You stupid, stupid fuck.

That's a Photoshop joke thing right?  It's like a Paradox demotivator with the funny saying cut off?

That's obviously Colonel Wolseley's troops coming down from Canada which, incidentally, would've moved faster than McClellan.

It's just not a proper ACWjack without McClellan-bashing.

If it's a joke, it's an official Paradox joke.  That's the cover they've shown over at the Paradox forums.

QuoteWe wanted to make a cover that shows something cool, and also show something that is both historical and showing what Paradox is all about, ie, changing history.
