I hate to tell you this but it's landlocked.
well they made a deal with Germany that once Germany had crushed the British they would get the territory down to Karachi, so there is naval potential if they join the Axis (or conquer Southern Iran).

I think the generic tree should not give so many free factories because it doesn't scale. However, it should have percent modifiers instead - like increased construction speed and production efficiency. The final construction focus maybe can add 1 factory, but for the sake of scaling I think giving national modifiers instead will keep minors relevant but not overpowered
And make use of minor nations even harder to conquer with?

It's about San Marino...

So you mean to tell me San Marino is landlocked, but they decided to call it San MARINO anyway? Surely they would have called it San Terrario instead or stuff. Therefore, I consider your argument void.

Also, Afghanistan can not possibly be landlocked, either. How the hell would the Navy Seals get there in this case, huh?

yes cause its named after saint Marinus who was a stonemason, not a pirate or fisherman.

That´s what they WANT you to believe!

My point still stands unchallenged and proud, and I am sure this marinus was a priate anyway, he just was good at hiding the truth

I second this. Luxembourg world conquests are beyond alt history or even whacky history, it's simply exploiting a game.
yeah but given that we will get an achievement to conquer the soviet union as Finland this won't stop anytime soon. (there is a special place in hell for people who voted for that an not "Ia m the senate"

I wonder why the navy SEALs don't have a duck as mascot.

Ducks can fly, swim AND run, and are decent at all of it.

Besides, special forces with Duck insignia are beyond badass. Every street punk sports skulls and shit, but a DUCK? I wouldn't mess with anyone fighting under a mallard banner.

And make use of minor nations even harder to conquer with?

Ideally. A good minor player should be able to defend their country more efficiently (I wouldn't mind core attack and defense bonuses) but really shouldn't be able to spread beyond their own borders and maybe their claims/cores.

I do differentiate between minors and minor (regional) powers like Turkey, China and Brazil which I think can do some degree of expansion but definately not a world conquest

Wouldn't be a stretch to say they would make a Afghanistan Tree considering that some nations with the new dlc and previous dlcs who had a relatively minor role in the overall conflict has more content than the main belligerents that being a certain bear and mediterranean nation whose leader wishes to restore it's long gone glory...
