I found it useful to create a larger cordon around the city, so rather than stacking up directly on the city tiles, move a few tiles away and surround it with a fallback line, the AI will be baited out, then I could slam a few armored/mechanized units into the city tiles and sweep up the remaining units. Only works once the frontline has moved on though. It was especially painful taking Milwaukee and Chicago during my trump campaign as they were on the frontline.
Taiwan and Okinawa are a lost cause due to their proximity to the mainland and the fact that the chinese can spawn marines via decisions to gain a beachhead in the island as soon as the war starts. The Asian War works as a series of phases, and no matter the side (I played as China when I did the war, haven't played from Japan's side) I advice to first conquer the rest of Korea, and then mainland SEA. If you do that as Japan, you would have isolated any allies that the EADI may have on the islands, as well as link up with India, massively narrowing your frontlines, then you should attack Pakistan and the himalayan countries so that you have to only defend a few bottlenecks with poor supply for the chinks. Afterwards, you just have to endure
iirc TFR's devs said that the gangs won't get any unique content, and are intended as speedbumps.
Based maoist solution to the drug question.
Red World Fan Forks devs are center left shitlib globalist suckers that spend all day bitching about politics rather than work on their mod so this isn't surprising.
City fights have got to be the most pain in the ass thing when it comes to this mod. Spent a good bit trying to capture Los Angeles and New York during my playthrough.
tfw no buying sausage decision.
Since most of the civil war factions’ military is militia and infantry, whoever equips their main fighting force with artillery the fastest is automatically top dog.
Weird that Konata shows up there, it made sense when she shows up when playing as Japan but why Russia?
It's great to hear the devs have that philosophy and have stuck with it. That's a solid anchor point for all their writing and the direction of the mod itself, even if there are some quality assurance problems with the writing. It's player-centric, not poli-centric. It's agency empowering
Anime is actually kind of normalised in Russia and has been for years in ways the west is only just catching up to.
Idk. She started to show up yesterday, the same day that there was an small update for the mod, she was not there the day before. Maybe someone forgot to remove her from the files or put her where she doesn't belong

IIRC the reason the mod is the way it is simply comes down to the fact that they wanted to actually release the mod sooner rather than later, in order to prevent the fate of many toozer mods, no release ever. I for one would rather take the mod in its current state than a more perfected version a number of years from now, if ever.
Making a dynamic system for that, with either border wars or regular wars or maybe a mix, would be fairly easy to make so there's probably a submod in the near future.
Extremis Ultimis might give those other two a run for their money if we're talking about which mod is the most schizo
The devs have said what we have is only supposed to be the lead-up to the Third World War, which is pretty insane considering in some cases you have content until 2035. In a sense, they've already beaten TNO to TNO 2. Not that it was ever going to be real in the first place.
