Wow, this is amazing. Nice work.

Bordergore: Does it Matter?

No.

Ok everyone ignore everything you just read.

'colonial migration' section, could this benefit from a small note on cored vs non cored colonial states and their ability to be turned into states relatively effortlessly towards the last 10-15 years of the game. They don't seem to require the 1% of home nation culture bureacrat pop to be converted. It may be tech related.

Nice guide, but that font is almost unreadable.

Nice job, nice

It was great, best Industry guide I've seen thanks. Just played a game to number 2 as America but that damn German Engineering dwarfed my Industry score.

Non primary english speaker here (probably not the first here, though): it's a clear, concise guide well fitted for anyone who has played the game a few hours: a very instructive reading, useful if you want to micromanage industry while waging economic wars and managing your pop in hope to minmax your industrial output. It could use a fancier display, but that's nickpicking.

Also, you may want to write about POP conversion to a primary or accepted culture: as you say, they are essential to optimize your national focus strategy (more accepted pop=more national focus point, to a limit), and I think there are countries which could benefit from an optimised conversion in this view, especially when the factor:

• Is not accepted culture
• Continent is North America or South America or Oceania

is not in effect. If I suggest this, it's mainly because I tend to play Vic 2 with converted saves from EU IV, where my countries tends to have many non accepted cultures cultures. In Vanilla, I guess it's less of a problem, altough an Austrian run (8.84M POP, primary south german:20,3%, no accepted culture) could benefit from it.

Overall, an excellent guide.

Cool, I'll try Victoria II again with this guide. There are some things in the game that I just never understood.

For single player, when you can always conquer the resources you need, trying to get max throughput by stacking factories with their inputs/outputs in the same state makes sense. If you're playing MP, or for whatever reason you can't just conquer a territory to get more of a rare good, wouldn't it be better to avoid raising throughput for factories that lack specific inputs?

Thanks for the guide, I think you could expand the part about industry builds because it is very rare to have all the RGOs you need for the perfect build.

I would add that artisans are to keep an eye on because they are a good source of craftsman and clerks, and what they are producing is a good indicative of the way your industry could go (if artisans can make glass profitable, your industry should too, for example)
