im new to vic and i haven’t the slightest as to which nation i should use for my first play through
what does pop demand do
Dontcha mean HFM?You'll realise soon enough that Vicky2 is not so complex after all. Once you get to know things, PDM will be the only mod you'll enjoy in Vicky2
Historical Flavour mod, basically HPM but with a lot more Flavour. Great mod!I haven't played Victoria 2 in a while. Is HFM something new?
Promote soldiers, attack the other Cape nation, cheese and attack Sokoto or Ethiopia, build up troops and attack Zulu, then wait patiently to attack UK when it is weakestI've always felt that the Boer nations (Transvaal and the OFS) would be quite fun to play as, as, but I can never get started. Does anyone have any ideas as to which one would be better/how to reconquer the Cape?
Thanks, I'll try that. Any idea on which of the two is easier to start as? Oranje borders Britain and Transvaal borders Portugal. I think Transvaal may have a large army/economy but I'm not sure.
Sardinia-Piedmont and Two Sicilies are good choices, too, as they are large enough in their area not to be inconsequential, and they don't have to become big by themselves. If you care to become Italy eventually, choose Sardinia-Piedmont; if you choose to fight Italy eventually and win, choose Two Sicilies.
