Planned economy can be a bitch to manage yourself, and requires a whoooole lot of work for huge nations, like the UK. I perfer my laissez faire in large nations, as they also have access to a larger pool of capitalists, and thus have much better chances for starting new factories. Plus, factory outpu bonus.

Best government and ecconomy system really depends on how you want to play your game. I perfer HM socialist government, lots of immigrants and easy to pull through any kind of reform, ability to choose ruling party and it also allows you to build and expand factories along with your capitalists.

For conquest games, reactionary and fascist parties, of course. I have yet to play as a fascist dictatorship, though.

Liberal government can also be lovely. If you have a large country, or just a lot of capitalists you can get some pretty decent factories going. Problem with liberal government is that it is often anti military, and laissez faire or interventionalistic. Which can lead to slow factory development.

Führer GIF's are always appreciated.
Does anyone have any Communist propaganda?

I thought you'd never ask! Also, I think the officer looks a little too young to be The Desert Fox.

one of my favorites...

Ahh, wonderous idea. Done. Thanks for pointing it out.

That awkward feeling when you notice its Chinese, and not bloody Korean


Now, after chugging through my internet folder I found some stuff not in the propaganda folder, and thus, it has been moved there as it should.

North Korea Strong!

I have long forgotten the source of these, but my guess is either 4chan or Krautchan.

The "newspaper" seems like a fun, although nearly useless feature.
Also, am I the only one who thinks the way they are describing their "new" naval system makes it sound a lot like what there is in HoI3 already? yeeeah... Glad to see it ported to Vicky2 though.

That "International Crisis" mechanic, and better colonisation seems to be quite interesting however. I had personally hoped for a form of spy system, staging foreign coups, etc. but this is very good news none the less.


Now for a screenshot...

Nice! A lot of 'em were really good. Thanks for uploading! According to my folder, I got 85 propaganda themed images. Its all very mixed though. Some German, Russian, Norwegian, Dutch, American and last but certainly not least, Best Korean. Is there any interest?

What tank is that?

Also, didn't Jose serve on the western front as well? I might be confusing him for a Korean soldier, here...


Now, the time has come for me to contribute! These pictures are all from an old photoalbum some German bloke uploaded some time ago. Not quite sure about the date, but my guess is most of them are early or pre war. Quite nice, if I am to say so myself.

EDIT: changed pictures to link for easy viewing.

My dear Hekko, once again you have succeeded in bringing attention to a vital topic in a well written and diplomatic way. You have said what needed to be said, and what others have been trying to point out for quite a while, however, it looks as though its gained a fair bit traction...

What I now hope for, is that these matters shall be changed to the better. But how do we go about doing it? Have you got any ideas yourself, Hekko?

Mikkel your so sexy. And your doggie, I want to eat it. but you need to squeeze that big zit on your nose. It is distracting!
Thank you, thank you. I must ask you not to eat the dog, though. Also, it's not a zit, goddamn it! A rather oddly placed birthmark though. My grandfather had it as well. Perhaps I am related to Rudolph?

Well... I suppose it is time for me to make my formal introduction to this, new forum. And what better way to start than in the thread that displays ones true face? Ha, bad jokes aside... These pictures were taken in early decembre, when the snow had been lying around for a week or two.

Before hand, I will apologize for the sizes of the pictures. I did not have the mental capacity to resize them when I uploaded them. Change the zoom on your browser and you'll be fine.
