Just bought the game, how long am I supposed to wait here? The old lady just told me to sit down and she looks like she doesn't want to be bothered.

PSA: 300S is ending August 22nd

The lightrail will finally be opened on the 22nd, which is also the day that the 300S bus line closes. There will be no overlap, and the lightrail has some significantly different stops from 300S in Lyngby (Fx it does not go to the Sports Centre, Fysikvej stop is gone etc.) so if you use 300S regularly don't get surprised by it when the academic year starts again.

Does Voyager 1 even give us any interesting information anymore?

It's the farthest away object we ever sent. That is remarkable. But I have never heard about it discovering anything or about any data that it gave us. Besides being a significant curiosity for being so far away, is there something that we're actually getting from it at this point?

Ok but like how does one actually play this game?

You go form the Grand Coalition, fine

You try to do ANYTHING remotely leftist, the DNVP gets mad and kills the coalition

You can now either tolerate Bruning or force new snap elections

If you tolerate Bruning you get blamed for everything he does and don't get to do anything popular

If you force new elections you've just entered purgatory of like 5 new snap elections before finally Hitler comes to power

It's easier to play to win the civil war than to actually have a government that works. I haven't even managed to get Weimar coalition once. One playthrough I did 2 steps of the Left economic program which was cool but then the non-snap elections came and the snap election purgatory began cause was still mega unpopular with how much I had to sacrifice to make the left plan happen.

Is there a guide here somewhere I'd love to see an actual victory screen once.

Why does the AI love city districts so much and then never develops them?

I see this sort of planet build constantly when conquering AI planets. Maxed out city districts, no attention at all paid towards the basic resources, all the while the city district itself doesn't even have any buildings or in this case not even a second specialisation. Why do they do this so much?

The names here are machine hivemind names cause I'm a machine hivemind. The empire I conquered this from was individualist organic. That's also why nothing gets produced cause they're all currently becoming one with the grid.

The Weltkrieg is easily the worst part of the mod gameplay wise

The Second Weltkrieg is supposed to be culminaton of everything. All the storylines of all countries in Europe lead to it in one way or the other. Unless you're in China (where you should be) you're very very much expected to join one of the sides and be a part of this grand clash...but it just sucks ass to play.

If you are either the CoF, UoB, Germany, Austria, or Russia, you're gonna win easily. You have enough industry on your side to work with, and a semi-competent player will make a bunch of good divisions and do some basic micro to just guarantee they will never lose. It's over before it even began. Unless you get a lot of RNG tag allegiance flips going against your wishes, but even then unless it's Ukraine or a Benelux country you don't really care.

If you're neither of the above countries, you're most likely just in a world of pain. You can't do anything on your own cause you're too weak. If the balance of power between the blocs is shifted towards you losing, then you're losing. The exceptions to this are Ukraine and victorious Bulgaria, where you can pull off miracles, but other than those two you're just watching a fait acompli unfold. If you're an Internationale minor and Bulgaria wins the Balkan War you might as well quit the game, you're gonna lose. If the Italian Civil War resolves not to your advantage, you should heavily consider. As an average minor Weltkrieg member, you're going to be grabbing your 30-ish infantry divisions staring down the 10 infantry on each tile from the opposing side and just watching as your allies are getting slowly but surely pushed with you helpless to stop it. You mathematically cannot matter enough to change anything in this war, you're too weak. Soooo many countries have really fun gameplay and plot development happening right up until the Weltkrieg, at which point you're just thrown into the woodchipper and asked to come out intact on the other side. Unless you have a tank corps you're never ever taking a tile on the Western Front on your own. And you don't have a tank corps, so good luck.
