When you wake up in the middle of the night with the thought: "DAMN! THE TURKS ARE AT THE GATE!" While it's only your drunk housemate entering.

True story.

Such UK with "Operation Husky"... nah meaningless...

Was like 60 years ago?

Now, for me the western europeans, aspecialy french, italians, swedes, etc. are so demoralized, that i doubt and i have evidence, that that they could protect old lady from bunch of bandits attacking them, not even saying about fighting in such war like WW2. And all it is because they are mostly sissy pacifist, that say better red than dead (which is obviously false, as it is better to be dead, than live in communist country), that forget the roman rule of "Civis pacem, Para bellum"(that is why we should have atomic weapons - anyone who thinks otherwise i say - if we won't have, world war III will be a distinct possibility). Now, maybe i am wrong, and there are many people that would fight for their motherland in those countries, but i realy realy doubt there are much of such men in western europe.

You know you play eu3 too much when you write texts like this XD>.

Stop trollin', ok?
First of all - if western countries are so pacifist why to the heck USA started two wars at the beginning of the XXIst century? For sightseeing islamic countries?
Secondly -as i remember last "alone" war of UK was with Argentina in march 1982...
Thirdly - "War Games", "Defcon: Everybody Dies"... if it does something tellin' you towards "we should have atomic weapons"...
Fourthly - if you are such "patriotic - idiotic" why aren't you serving in "National Reserve"?

Gosh. This topic used to be funny. Now it is not, 'coz of trolling... don't feed troll, pls.

...when you consider that "Hundred Years War" lasted for 15 years ;p

First : USA is not western europe.
Second : 20 years ago, but i'd say that british are possibly an exception in western europe.
Third : And you say me to stop trollin? I say have, not use.
Fourthly : How do you know i am not in the first place(are you spying on me XD)? And what does this have to do with being a patriot?

And instead of writing this, if you think it is not funny, you could write something yourself. And this thread is still fun, just except the discussion part. Just yesterday few new posts. And you just whine because you are depressed by the fact that you have such derp of a president... so i understand you, but this does not make you to whine all day...

this one made me explode with laughter- well done sir

Me too, but as i sad, it was loans, not gifts XD...

You know when you play eu3 too much when you start giving your nation politics stars in admin, diplo and military skill.

You know when you play eu3 too much when that politics you just gave 3-3-3 are choosen in election, and you wonder if it is just bad luck...

You wonder why not every politician has a birth certificate detailing his/her stats.

Also, you wonder how the country you live in has a 40 years old heir to the throne without any hunting accidents.

When you wonder why the relations between half of the Europe and Greece won't increase despite huge amounts of gifts.

I believe Europe is actually using the loan mechanism, which does not confer a relationship increase. As we know, the loan mechanism in the game is broken... the borrowing country rarely pays back, and Europe has no expectations it will. I have a strong suspicion that Europe is using the loan mechanism as an exploit to force Greece to stay within it's Trade League. Failure to do so could provoke other countries to leave, causing stagnation and ultimately the disappearance of the CoT in Brussels.

...and this is when I know I've played too much EU3.

When you refer to Czech republic as "Blobhemia"
... or when you coin the term Trollhemia (yay me!) and are then caught using it about the country.

when you learned about WWII, you wondered why Orleannais, Armagnac, Avignon, Brittany, Toulouse, Normandy, Lorraine, and a bunch of other city states weren't force-released by the Germans

Normandy was "city state"? That's something new!

...when you argue with history teacher why "dymitraids" go wrong.

... when you see someone's initials CB and instantly think "Casus Belli".
... when you start wondering that you wish countries would attack each other more often to clean up some of the borders (ie Armenia & Azerbaijan's border and SE Asia's long thin countries).
... when you also wonder why countries dont try to reclaim lost cored provinces (ie Ireland & Ulster, Denmark & Skane).
