Modern Day Scenario, towards Armageddon

[mikey1871]

I'm toying with the idea that this Caliphate can become so huge and threatening to the whole world, that the major Powers not already part of the Caliphate, somehow have to come together to fight it. But you cannot fight it with armies alone, it is too strong already.

You need new technologies, but even your own scientists are not enough. Your best techs are not enough. Your usual enemy possibly has better or equivalent scientists and different 21st century technologies. It is only by combing all the scientists and all the technologies, can you possibly get enough tech, get enough new stuff to even stand a chance against the Caliphate.

I REALLY LIKE where you are going with this statement.

And yes, nova and Emperor and german power and the other guy with the american flag, (very sorry that i've forgotten your screen name) YOU guys are all sounding like the American revolutionaries that i was taught about way back when i was a child in the late 60's and 70's in America.

THAT is how humans SHOULD think about each other.

IT's very funny but what you guys are talking about. how we all should look out for each other and give each other the same level of basic respect was brought up back in the mid 1960's on an American TV show. Can you guess which one? I"m sure you can and i'm quite certain that you know how that Show has affected every one of us in some way no matter where we live on the planet. Just the fact that we can converse with each other like we can on this forum is proof that that shows message did have a positive effect upon the human psyche. Oh hell, it was Star Trek.

Where we advanced beyond the concept of Currency and getting paid in money for sharing what we have thought up or designed and just gave it freely to our fellow species. We each have gifts that are different from each other that we have been endowed by our Creator, whatever nomenclature you give to the Creator.

Maybe it's about time that we get rid of the current concept of using a "Currency" and hence greed as a payment for our sharing the gifts that we all have be granted by the being that has set us up to be here on this lovely small blueish planet we collectively call DIRT! haha

You exaggerating a little,someone can come from the right without being a Nazi.

yes you are correct, in that i didn't exactly specify where "on the right side" of the political spectrum exactly the NAZI's lie, but then i'm not quite where exactly where they do lie on the right. is there anyone more right then they are? who exactly is just slightly to the left of them? i don't know. I don't think anyone really knows that answer.

I am not a leftist but the problem of America and the Western world in general is the neoliberalism and the market economy.

We need less free trade and more protectionism.

those "Free Trade" documents are NOT free trade, they are all corporate profit-mongering.

Yes i agree with you that each locality that produces a different thing should have a small protection mechanism placed into the costs of things produced in other areas.

I think that ONE of the largest things that we could do to get rid of the need for Protectionism is if everyone on the planet had the same level of cost of living.
Think about it. if everywhere the cost of manufacturing something was exactly the same then NO company would want to ship their labor costs overseas to any other place than where its most convenient to reduce the shipping costs to their perspective customers.

But then if everyone on the planet had the same Cost of living expenses in the same exact incrementation, then we'd have eliminated a great amount of the leading cause of warfare on the planet and also a great amount of current discrimination that we foster towards each other and that we pass down to our children so that the discrimination keeps on going from one generation to the next.

I would have guessed "Happy Days", with the Fonz et al.

What you said is true but for everyone on earth having the same level of cost of living and the same cost of production in each factory,we would need a kind of world empire,a nation that would annex all the other and that is impossible.

maybe the reforms of the 90`,s with tony blair, ronald, iron lady and gerhard schröder brought that profit mongering

ok so it seems that only your putin mod and hirz's now corrupt EOD 1.4 mod have the ctd for the intelligence tab. it works fine in regular unmodded DH full, Kaiserrich for 1.04, FODD 2.1, Dh104rc1EoD with Cheat codes, Fatherland from 12/6/2015, Fatherland-develop 1/24/16, Hegermonia 1.10 10/12/15 and World in Flames II GOLD_ICfix 10/12/15 all work.

That intelligence tab bug only seems to be in your PUTIN mods ( both 1.0 and 2.0) and Hirz's now, unfortunately corrupt, EOD 1.04 mod.

So i'm not sure what the fix is.

EOD: it is my copy that is corrupted not Hirz's. I gave him a working copy about a year ago when I did all that work. He worked on his mod afterwards trying to get the AI better, so he has a working copy somewhere?

The Intelligence Tab bug is actually an extra } somewhere. There is no } in the events.txt file, so I've no idea what is wrong with your game?

Could you have had a file open, and hit space or delete unknowingly and deleted a } ?

The real issue is here...people need a British Empire to rebel against. It all started when the UK got comfy with everyone. Who's gonna keep us on our toes if there's no mighty British Empire who's swallowed half the world?

i dont think this is the issue the world has to face

I did make some modifications to the "Building costs" text doc. but i like to have IC's haha. I used the "Backspace" key to removed the offending numbers in building IC and then just put a 1 in front of the remaining zero to make a 10 for time to build. I also removed by "Backspace" the zero for the other buildings that were over 100 days to build.

I've noticed that that ctd only comes up once i've saved the game and restart and use that saved game. but i already had the intelligence set to upgrade itself and i don't use intelligence in my games because the DH team still hasn't gotten it to work correctly. They know of this and have been working on it. So i'm not missing much anyways. I can play the game without that tab.

 

[mikey1871]

It's the biggest issue. It's HUGE.

And NOW we have the American Empire that has supplanted the olde British Empire hahaha

ok so some more constructive feedback. it seems that some of those pesky event pics for Russia just might need a little lightening up in the background so the black letters can actually be read.

I found a few problems though.

1. When i play as Russia i get the following things that aren't working correctly:

2. "Allow Casino's and Lotteries". i get the message but i can't find that under decisions to fire it.

3, Syrian Express doesn't show the 700 supplies nor the 100 added to oil when i click on the decision.

This next one is really annoying.... SO when u start the game up you get told that you can "Change your policy Sir". SO i go to it and i change interventionism to the next lowest one which i'm told by the game that the change would make my DoW 1.1, but when ever i go to DoW on Isis, the redish event card tells me that my dissent will increase by 5.6%..... NO THAT IS WRONG!!!!!!!! Now, i can remedy that by using the build infrastructure decision and using the research decision. I use them anyways, but if i've changed my policy then the mod should reflect that, yes?

A few corrections and suggestions for the Third Balkan War.

a) Albania would never ally itself with another Balkan country besides Croatia

b) US would not stand neutral when Russian puppet Serbia declares war to its dearest ally in the region.

c) ROM WILL not join an alliance with the GRE, it just can't happen.

d) If there is a coalition between ALB and another Balkan country to invade Macedonia it would be with Bulgaria

Dissent raised on DOW is WAD for darkest hour. This is directly from dh, I have not changed it:

MODIFIER_DOW_DISSENT_COST;10;8.8889;7.7778;6.6667;5.5556;4.4444;3.3333;2.2222;1.1111;0;x

Casino's should work as there is no 2nd criteria to meet, you meet the first criteria, it fires?

Syrian Express is not my event. You are giving 700 supplies etc to Syria, not Russia.

The scenario is that BOS becomes aligned with the Caliphate, as does the other muslim country Albania. So ALB becoming an ally of BOS in this circumstance is perfectly normal. As for the USA standing neutral, I have seen the USA bombing BOS, so they are not neutral? Maybe on your playthrough the USA didn't turn up, but that is an AI issue.

As for ROM never joining an alliance with GRE, they are both in NATO, so they are already allies in real life...??

I can make it so BUL becomes allies with GRE and not ROM, ok? .. WELL ACTUALLY I cannot, since BUL have a huge USA airbase in their country and I don't think they would jeopardise that for Greece, do you?

Why not ROM? They are NATO allies.

BUL is also in NATO, Romania also have a NATO missile defence system.
And why would Romania ally with Greece?

nova, that's not the damn point. YOU do know there is a Policy screen if you click on a country province. at the bottom you have Intervention slider. when you MOVE it it is supposed to reduce your dissent. MINE is set to 1.1 dissent. YOUR mod is telling me that my dissent for DoW with ISIS is 5.6.

THAT means your mod is messed up and NOT doing what DH is supposed to do. I'm sorry but i don't know how to be any clearer about this failing. Also, in all my years of playing HOI games and i started when HOI2 came out all those years ago, i've never come across this bug where the Intervention settings dissent isn't used by the game when you DoW. But then your Putin mod is still a WIP... so there can be things buggie about it.

Yes i agree that the Casino's event should fire and i should be able to see the decision under decisions, but i don't. it's a bug.

Oh ok then the way in which you have the Syrian express written one can think that they are getting the stuff and not syria.

I say that the Royal Navy still has the Ark Royal,Iliustrious and the Invincible but the first two already broken up in 2013 and the Invincible is in reserve and in the game they are lanidng ships but in real they where carriers
