The CWE mod is so good. I once played as the US and got into a nuclear war with the Soviets. Luckily, my ABM systems were good enough to shoot down all of the soviet missiles. Unfortunately, I still had to deal with the fallout coming from Soviet lands. EDIT: Also literacy has been replaced with Higher Education, or something like that.
Last time I played off camera I plunged the world into nuclear hell I had a pop for 40mil (ish) then when down to a few mil lol idk how the rest of the world ended up
Once I played the CWE mod and increased my education so much my population just all died (there is a modifier decreasing the birthrate attached to it). It was rather irritating.
@@whitehawk4099 should be an option to limit that like paying people to have children. Doesn't make sense that people get smarter = pop growth at some point
@@whitehawk4099 the meta is to not fund education and not get techs which boost literacy, because the loss in research is less important than the population numbers. There actually is a natalism decision which massively pumps up pop growth, but there are certain conditions attached to it, like being traditionalist or authoritarian or soemthing
I've asked 3 Germans what their favorites Bundesland was. All 3 Germans told me they had no favorite Bundesland. I then told them my favorite Bundesland was Saarland. They told me that couldn't be true. They may not have had a favorite Bundesland, but the Germans definitely have a least favorite Bundesland.
@@victorvonsteuben1728 which is probably Bavaria or Saxony. Most people just forget the Saarland exists. But it's acually really nice here, most people just judge because "Haha Ossis des Westens"
the claims aren't that wrong, its just that the mod lets you claim the old Prussian borders that were established after 1815 in that specific form. West Germany itself claimed the border from 1937, which doesn't include Danzig/West Prussia, the Memel land and Posen up until 1990
the only thing I dislike about CWE mod is the general annoyances of navy like usual, anyone can build large navies and overwhelm the US in one part of the world
@@GiddyGideon personally I recommend sort of scrapping the naval cap and instead adding other barriers to large navies, or else the US simply can't enforce its free trade agenda and the world won't make sense anymore
in the commands I unintentionally made it so britain and france form a union without any restraints, this means every game I will play in this mod, there will be a franco british union within the first year.
honestly they should add three options for germany, one of which involved getting all of the former imperial german borders(outside of france), other one historical
Nothing like reuniting Germany in Victoria II.
It is indeed a wholesome feeling 👍
German countries always most fun in any PDX game

@@TheJakee1000 Yes, to my chagrin I found that out because of that game.
4:20 'This' is the glorious Saarland, annexed by Germany in 1957 after an independence referendum there.
Saarland my beloved

Gideon out with another GOD DAMN BANGER of a video, you deserve more subs bro
Thank you for the kind words!! 😊
I need some more of this content broski
I can try to provide this 🤞
🤞

it is still extremely based though and I hope it doesn't get changed
idk man I just work here 😅
The Cold War mod is a really fun mod just to watch. Would love to see a USA or one of the Chinas run
I've though about playing them but I always feel like I'd get overwhelmed in 5 mins playing as either lol
Ah, Gideon
Finally
Content
One day maybe I'll be consistent 😊
the only thing I dislike about CWE mod is the general annoyances of navy like usual, anyone can build large navies and overwhelm the US in one part of the world
I noticed that you have crazy high naval capacity like I had 4 ports for most of the vid and had a naval cap of like 1000 lol

@@GiddyGideon Also Japan in my game got a larger navy than the USA(by quantity of ships)

this is a thing??? I wanna do this now
I got it by accident playing as the UK. You get it during the suez crisis if you decide to fight for the suez i think
-Makes massive claims across all of former German territories in Poland, giving massive revanchism
"Why are the nationalists gaining popularity?"
This is an awesome game. Victoria 2 is perfect for the Cold War.
The return of the KIng
Where!??
Keep Vicky content coming 👍👍👍
I can try thanks for watching 😊
I played with 5 different nations. And everytime we just never make money
very good very nice
Thank you :D
Nice
That’s weird I think you clicked the wrong mod and country, because I don’t think you are playing San Marino and I don’t see them on the map.
That was done intentionally .... 😁
@@GiddyGideon I don’t understand why y’all are so against playing the best nation, San Marino.
AWOOGA?!?!
No.... not you again 👀
Leave Poland alone man
I’m afraid this can not be done… sorry son
@@GiddyGideon As a Pole I say - dew it. Kill it.
its just geopolitics, son
Germany acknowledged the losses after 1990.
They should have never gave up on them 😅
Germany should've claimed even more instead
i got the mod but it runs so slow after a few years idk whats the problem
This is the only mod I can never get to work 😔
honestly they should add three options for germany, one of which involved getting all of the former imperial german borders(outside of france), other one historical
They should add options to build McDonald's everywhere 😁
I downloaded the Cold War Enhancement v. 1.40
7:45 . Why Indonesian flag ceremony is in the picture ?
