    Fun Fact: Frederick the Great wrote extensively about the tactics of total war, and employed several of them on the battlefield to great effect. One of his most infamous maneuvers during the Silesian War was a feinted retreat, where he lured the Austrians into attacking his rear, by setting fire to his own encampment, and then encircling their forces from the flanks. Laith recently attempted a similar maneuver, by setting fire to his own kitchen in order to get out of live streaming with Quarbit.

    The thing with the Austrian war reparations is that you garnish from their overall income, including any money they gain from loans, so if you force them to take loans to cover the cost of money taken in the peace deal, or they need to take a loan for some other reason while they pay war reps, you get money for it.

    Day 1 of asking Laith to play the Code Geass Total Conversion Mod for EU4
    It's basically an alt-history mod with a start date in 1812, with Napoleon exiling the British monarchy to their American colonies (USA never happened in 1776), and then himself dying a few years later with Europe banding together to establish a federation in order to prevent another Napoleon from ever ruling again - thus establishing Europia United (E.U.). The French monarchy, similarly to the British one, is also exiled to the new world - in the kingdom of Louisiana. At the same time Mexico is fighting their war of independence, and should they be succesfull they can become the main rival for American dominance of the newly established Britannian Empire. In Asia, the British East India Company is independent, China (Han) tries to unite the East into a Chinese Federation (C.F.), and Iran works to establish it's own Middle Eastern Federation to rival the E.U. and the C.F. and withstand Britannian interest in that region and it's valuable oil (new trade good) resources.
    The mod also properly balances the lategame EU4 start date experience, unlike Paradox's efforts in the vanilla game. The mod also adds new techs and events. The tech progression is slightly faster than what happened in our timeline, thanks to the existence of sci-fi resource Sakuradite in the in-universe canon, which in-game acts like a trade good which starts very cheap and becomes very valuable as technology advances. Events include things like real world industrial innovations from our timeline (price change events), real world historical happenings (flavor events) and so on. The trade note setup is also changed to reflect the time period and alt-history, with the new end nodes being English Channel, Pendragon (vanilla EU4's California; named after the future capital of the Britannian Empire at the gulf of Baja California) and one of the chinese nodes (maybe Beijing?).
    You don't need any knowledge of the Code Geass anime or any other material to enjoy this mod, and you can play it as just an alt-history with light sci-fi elements such as quicker tech progression, such as assault rifles (inf units), tanks (cav units), submarines (faster transport of units with ships) and airplanes (country buff that gives siege ability) being invented and utilized in warfare in the late 1800s, and giant robots (inf units) being used starting near the 2000s. The campaign ends around 2070.
    The interesting nations to play in this mod are: Britannia, Republic of Britain (Napoleonic Britain puppet state), Louisiana, Mexico, Revolutionary France, East India Company, Iran (Persia), Han (China). Iran and Han have unique missions aimed at forming their respective federations, while the others are allegedly still W.I.P. by the mod author, but you really don't need mission trees to roleplay as Brittania and manifest destiny all over the Americas, or as Europia United (formable by France after Napoleon dies) and force all of Europe to be your subordinate E.U. member states.

    The Seven Years War was very confusing in history, but the Prussians managed to win that somehow, despite being outnumbered. I think some circumstances were simply miracles like the Russians changing sides but the rest is hard to explain anyways. And as a threat heres some little scare for Laith: PICARDY
    Here are the usual quotes:
    "I am in fact, not a very smart man"
    "Taking Picardy was a mistake, I dont want it!"
    "No! Come back! I need to feel something!"
    "We have taken back the Holy Lands of Picardy!"

    I relatively recently finally got into eu4, definitely not as good as CK3 but I do know that I hate it’s late game waaayyyy more than I do CK3’s. CK3 has boring late game because you’re OP, Eu4’s late game turns into HOI but there’s no front lines or automations. I have 600 men, 8, 80 stack armies, and 3, 120 stack navies and if I don’t micro manage them the war will take even longer. God forbid I’m fighting an alliance with comparable numbers meaning the Ai might actually true to fight me. Oooo I hate it.
    At that point I feel no shame just turning on Yesman and taking what I want because I know im going to win, the Ai isn’t good enough to win and all my stats are better anyway, I just don’t want to play for 4 hours to win one war that lasted 10 years.
