Modern Day Scenario, towards Armageddon

[novapaddy]

I just played with Russia and Syria was anexed by the free Syrian Army that doesnt sound right lol

Yeah, isn't ai_chance = x a great piece of code for doing events. I think it is always best to have different options happen and seeing as the FSA is backed by the West, it isn't that unusual an ending.

So Nova, YOu thought your little Communist Punta was gonna take Russia away from Mr.Putin, ehh?

Well, you were sadly mistaken! I was prepared. it only took about 25 divisions to conquer "Soviet Russia". It was a fun month of game play though

Now, that damn Caliphate...... Those fuckers reproduce like damn cockroaches and they are about as hard to kill. It took me 2 damn game years and over 60 dicisions to exterminate that damn Caliphate, but i DID IT. Only stayed up all night to do it. But it's done now. The hard part was Not invading anyone from the European side. i had decided to invade turkey. that wasn't easy.

Well I'm really happy to hear you had a tough time but enjoyed it mikey1871.
That was the baby Caliphate, I'm currently creating the Daddy Caliphate. Best get down to the gym and start getting fit, as they guys are going to take over the whole world...if you let them!

EDIT: I went for a walk this morning along the sea front, where the huge liners dock in the summer time. Was the first day of Spring, sunny and warm instead of raining and cold, first decent day in months.

I found a free gym just sitting there for anyone to use. I used it and felt great afterwards. Must go there again...

I did not know that Moldova was communist sams as Lithuania.

I don't pay a lot of attention to stuff like that, I'm depending on you guys telling me what it should be so I can fix it. What should it be?

 

[mikey1871]

Hey Nova, do you know why or rather how that Intelligence tab bug came back? it's kinda irritating to not be able to see if i have 75% effective counter-intelligence or not. haha

Now Nova, we don't really need a Daddy Caliphate, do we? the regular cockroaches were bad enough!

Oh boy only 21 more posting til i have a Thousand... DO i get a prize for that? lol

Oh so when Heir Trump buys the presidential Election r you gonna have an event where Mexico can tell trump to go fuck himself and his wall along the southern US border?

ANd will Trump go crazy and declare war on the rest of the world? that would be fun hahaha

 

[Wordsarecool]

Going to remind you again Trump is the least interventionist of all the standing candidates save perhaps Bernie, who doesn't stand a snowball's chance in hell of winning.

As for Mexico, their economy (and the drug market too) are dependent on US consumerism. They could easily be brought under heel just by threatening to revoke parts of NAFTA, and we already know Trump is against that.

I think you must have done something a little crazy? Because all you needed to do was add # to one line and save it. I even posted the whole file, so you could just copy and paste over the previous file.

I'll attach the file again here.

It goes into the db folder.

 

[sanmartijn]

Lithuania should be Social Democrat
Same as Moldova maybe a bit more to the left but not communist

Can u post on the technical part how we can fix the lag ? Thanks in advance

 

[emperor raspou]

. The one thing Putin doesn't want is Trump at the table. Trump may look like a fool but he's had success in the past..enough to take a fortune of 250 million and turn it to 4 billion. Guys not a idiot and understands the advantages the US has. He will push and use them, Example the wall..he gets he can force Mexico to be his lap dog. That's worrying for Russia. Because sure Trump won't care while they eat a little here and there but any full scale escalation he will do something about it.

Are you sure ?

I rather feel that the victory of Trump is desired by Putin,more than a victory of hillary clinton + Trump seems to appreciate Vlad and vice versa.

i Just checked the UK and as i am at war with Daesh i can not bomb them because i have not right to pass true any bother.

Can you please tell me more. The lag is caused by the AI not performing correctly at times, like it is being hindered (like you say) or confused somehow. Can you tell me more?

 

[sanmartijn]

the UK is allied with the US and the US declared war on Daesh but i can not bomb Daesh because there is not path true i think Iraq should be in the same team Iraq is like a puppid of the US

This ties in with what I have seen. If the enemy does not occupy a sea province, the AI appears confused and they do not attack, even though they are at war. But as soon as the enemy occupies a sea province, the USA, FRA, ENG turn up bombing like crazy. So the sea province must provide a path for the AI?

No idea how to fix. IRQ is a puppet of Iran, not the USA.

Working on what you said earlier. If you can go to scenario folder/usa.inc file. Scroll down to the diplomacy area, find IRQ and add access = yes to the line.

I have tried this and it has improved things 100%. Always before you either had the USA or RUS bombing, but always separately. With this setting the USA bombs alone and with RUS as well, I mean both together.


relation = { tag = IRQ value = 50 access = yes }

You totally misunderstand him. He's not global police. That's the difference. He said he'd destroy ISIS. To think a guy like Trump wouldn't do anything is nuts. I think he understand the futility of Russian attempts at reassertion. He gets the position of power. Hence the same goes along with Mexico. Understanding your position of power and knowing when to use it doesn't make you a non-interventionist. It makes you not a moron.

Hey but maybe the guys a total moron. From what I've heard he seems to have some in-depth understanding of the US position of power that hasn't really been used since Reagan.

Appreciation also doesn't mean if the Russikies try anymore serious shit he's not gonna stomp the foot on. Look at how anti-isis he is. If anything it leads me to believe he'd be even better at detouring the Russians at further control over its former states.

On Mexico he's repeatedly stated he'd used economic debt and other things in order to force Mexico into submission. It's Mexico for godsake. They don't stand a chance if the US wants to do some stuff.

Game note. It's hard to invade ISIS with paratroopers. I keep trying before they take Syria and it never lets me paradrop. Annoying.

Russian attempts are not futile,wanting to restore its power and greatness is a natural feeling for all the peoples on Earth.

you are right about that and I think that Trump is a smart guy,he understood the threat that China is for US hegemony.

However,my heart tells me that Trump will win but my mind tells me that Clinton will be president.

Anyway,if Trump wins,he will have to abandon his ideas or he will have an "accident".

What I mean that is they aren't in a position to. (Russia) The only way the can is if the US simply lets them. A Trump presidency I doubt would allow Russia to reclaim its place in the sun. While Hillary and Bernie I feel like would allow plans to proceed. Bernie is Chamberlain and Hillary is more worried about pleasing corporations and being corrupt. Not playing the global field.

All this reminds me of is World War 2. Its similar in so many ways its scary. Ukraine is Czechoslovakia, Cold War is the Great War. Russia started rebuilding its Military, The Germans did in 36. So when I say futile I mean in the sense the US has the power to use right now. Its a matter of when and not to wait too long before its too late and you have a revitalized world power.

China isn't a threat I think because it's more like the British-American relations in the 1800s. Extremely economically tied. Eventually that turns to friendship. Besides China is struggling to be able to be technologically competent and still working with a economic system from the 1800s. China in my view is a threat 40 years from now. Russia is the front threat.

Aircraft on bombing missions must have a path of friendly or enemy provinces to fly over in order to bomb. They cannot fly over neutral provinces other than the oceans, though you might be able to get around that by giving the coalition countries military access through Turkey or Iraq and see if that lets the bombers fly over.

China is currently unpredicable and if anything will be far less of a threat in 40 years when their massive demographic imbalance comes into effect. I could see them even starting a local conflict over supposed Chinese territory in the pacific to kill off some of their massive male population and distract people from increasingly pressing issues at home.

As for the Russians, they have always had the compulsion to mantain buffer states on their border with Europe. Having NATO on their doorstep does nothing whatsoever to ease whatever historical paranoia it is that compels them to do this.

I think that above all Russia fears isolation, and this has been and will remain the cause of their operations in Ukraine and the Middle East. I'll start worrying if or when Putin starts carving up the Baltic states.

I doubt China will become less of a threat. I just don't see it despite the fucked up demographics. I think it'll be a issue but I think its recoverable from. I worry more about evolution of the society. What happens when 1.3 billion Chinese want and can afford cars?

Russia in it's 20 year history is hardly anything to call what it wants. That I presume is just a fad. I find it more likely they'd rather return to the olden days when Russia was the most feared power in Europe. Russia traditional is a world power and the people from their (Anecdotal) seem to stress that they still believe in the idea of Russian superiority, strength, etc. I foresee Russia taking a Nazi German path to a new cold war which has been brewing since they US has sat on it's ass. Putin has already stated his wishes to return the border to its former status. The question is how far will Putin go? How serious is he about the goal? Its certainly nothing like Mein Kampf. But he certainly has declared and made his intention pretty fucking out there.
