Beta AAR: Einigkeit und Recht - Comments thread

[Swuul]

If I'm reading Jarkko's AAR right though, this battle lasted a good 2-3 months

Lasted from April to September, so over four months.

Also, perhaps because of this ginormous battle (or so I personally love to thing, it makes me feel like an important beta ) the mobilisation sizes have been changed since this beta AAR. You will not be able to mobilise this humongous armies this early in the game any more (but will be able to do so later on as techs advance)

Ah! That sounds much more reasonable!

But tell me something, what was the overall population of Prussia at the start of the game? And when I say overall population I don't mean overall amounts of pops but the actual population. Isn't it listed somewhere in the menus/interface?

when you hover over the 'population' part in the tab, it gives you the entire country's population.

Hooray! I've been asking for this particular measure since Vicky!

And that was a nice AAR Jarkko

 

[Haydn]

nice AAR! its a shame that you didnt get the german lands of austria though, when you were forming Germany.

I don't know if this has been mentioned before, but anyway. In 1841 Great-Britain had occupied Tibet, while in 1851 Tibet appeared to be an independent state again. What happened? Did it revolt away or did Britain release it as a sattelite/dominion?

Can anyone answer what happens to the POPs of the poofed armies? It's been asked several times already, but was never answered. Is poofing 400k soldiers the same as killing them as far as the impact on POPs is concerned?

They would at least lose some of their number, not sure how many though (modified by military hospitals?)

Fine AAR.

I enjoined it.

Was your build older than Peekees when he made his AAR?

Great AAR. Nice to see the map changing for reasons other than the player's action. Best part was the collapse of the Ottoman Empire. Are there any other instances where a change in government form causes a change in name?

 

[Workers Revolt]

For me, it was an entertaining AAR. Very obviously of a different generation to OHGamer's, and it's been nice to see how the game has evolved.

 

[LeeDub]

Good AAR, very enjoyable. We need more.

We've seen screenshots of the Republic of Brittannia (or something similar), so I wager the answer is yes.

 

[Helios Ra]

Great AAR! Does this mean Luxemburg is a German group and not Dutch group or French state because the event took place in Luxemberg?

Its the generic event for forming a union.. But romania needs to be able to form, without being a GP.

So you need to be a great power to form a union unless you're in the Romanian group? Won't it be a bit improbably difficult for Czechoslovakia or Yugoslavia to form then? Or is there another way to form the unions?

This is what the manual says about soldier Pops:

Soldiers – This is the POP Type you use to raise new armies. If you don’t
have enough Soldiers, you need to raise Military spending enough to
encourage more Recruits, then you can use them to build more Regiments.
They receive pay through the Military spending slider. Unlike in the original
Victoria, each Soldier POP is directly linked to the units Recruited from it.
If the POP goes into Revolt, so does the Regiment. If the Regiment takes
casualties from combat, the POP loses Population too.

Just notice that in 1870 there seemed to be chunks of land in different colors in China. They don't look like rebels. Can you tell me what they are? Are they some Chinese warlords like in HOI? It'll be great if each state or minor culture in China now has its own tag in VIC2.

Probably just various Chinese revolter states, just like you have in EU3+expansions.

My bet is China is the union tag for all of them.

Haven't played EU3. Can you please tell me what Chinese revolter states are in EU3 expansions?

I'm sure I saw Wu break away once, but there probably a couple of more.

 

[Bballman23]

@Southern Min: In EU3, there are several states that can pop up within Ming/Qing China if they get into serious trouble with war exhaustion and the like. These revolters are basically just named after former dynasties (Wu, Qin, and Xia are the three that I remember). They are separate states, of course (giving major rebellions a long-lasting consequence rather than just a regime or policy change), but are the same religion and culture as the original Chinese state. Those little blobs within China in the above map probably came about as a result of post-war rebellions after their war with Russia.
