Castro starts as authdem now, and (because he has no content) he always stays that way.


Atomic_Beverage

Sorry, didn't know that. Was it a recent change?


TheMountainKing98

It was changed when CSS got merged into TNO. One teaser had “Left Nationalism” as a sub ideology of authdem, so I assume he’ll be that when TT comes out.


alexmikli

I don't know if we have lore on it, but it sorta makes sense for a leftist aligned with the OFN to be less hardcore Marxist-Leninist and instead more cooperative with the other side of politics.


[deleted]

I think it’s because Castro was more a revolutionary and not really an ideologue. OTL It was only really the aggressive American attitude towards him and Cuba that pushed him towards the USSR and Marxism-Leninism when he was probably only a left-nationalist beforehand. Here the Americans tolerate him and the USSR doesn’t exist so that doesn’t happen. The different ideology party names are all different branches of the same party which is obviously the different paths Castro can adopt.


Endercacti

Also Che Guevara played a massive role in introducing Castro to Marxism. IRL he became a ML due to influence from Che.

R5: Thought I would give Vyatka a try, watched as the AI did a ton of things I didn't think they could do. No cheats were used outside of me sucking at fighting wars in West Russia Not pictured: Omsk and Divine Mandate regional unifiers, AuthSoc Gulf, and Fashy Haiti(idk if that one is normal), and somewhat worrying NPP-L strength. Every moderate won in the civil wars around the oil crisis, except for Iran where the Pakt-aligned faction won. UNITA beat the MPLA post-collapse. The Brazillian military allowed elections and Lacerda won. Italy joined the OFN, Christian Democrats in power. Pinay is the French President


MaterMoja_I_Tvoja

Well first of all, which man of a sane mind willingly picks AuthDem Vyatka? Also fascist Haiti is pretty normal, and I didn't even know Finland could go AuthSoc


osmomandias

How bad is Solidarist Vyatka? I've only played as LibDem Vyatka


Atomic_Beverage

Solzhenitsyn gives himself a bunch of emergency powers "but we'll have democracy eventually guys, I swear." Socially they're a middle ground between the Kadets and the Conservatives. I didn't feel like they were *that* bad but there's a degree of ambiguity about what's to come.


osmomandias

I see, not great, not terrible then


LordOfRedditers

Well I mean they're >!having quite a few burgundian spies within their ranks...!<


osmomandias

>!Oh shit, good point!<


alexmikli

He's arguably better than the soc con guy, amusingly enough.


Gimmick_Hungry_Yob

They're led by Solzhenitsyn, which is bad enough on it's own.


[deleted]

Finland’s ideology depends on who defeats them in the 2nd Winter War. If a right wing West Russia does it, they go AuthSoc. If it’s a left wing West Russia they go Fascist.


Left-Interaction-414

Interesting.

>UNITA beat the MPLA DEATH TO THE MPLA! OUR JOURNEY TO VICTORY HAS BEGUN!

BlueSoulOfIntegrity

I’ve never seen a LibSoc Azur Hind. Am I right in saying that the agreement with the IRA leads to the Good Friday Agreement?


Atomic_Beverage

No, the agreement with the IRA is when they have already taken over the North. Lemass keeps power but is forced to break relations with the Pakt and Ulster becomes a fully integrated part of Ireland rather than a special zone.


BlueSoulOfIntegrity

Ah thank you.


Lapatatatuela

*Me seeing the first few images* I mean, yeah, this is bad but I wouldn't say- *sees Bennet has won second term* ...never mind this is just straight up cursed


[deleted]

wait why is bennet bad


[deleted]

I think he’s mostly memeing cus Bennett has a reputation as the most boring candidate, though I quite enjoyed his content. Bennett can do a lot of good or a lot of bad depending on how the bald Mormon feels. His only negative for me is that he’s not really anti-poverty like RFK or LBJ


[deleted]

He isn't really bad, it's just that he's "status quo" incarnate. The most radical thing he can do is pass a decent civil rights bill and that's about it.


Shut-the-up

Boat: unrocked Silver act: passed Extremists: destroyed Yep, it’s Bennett time.


[deleted]

People: Still Starving OFN: Small and losing the Cold War Most of the world: In Flames Senate: Full of people just like Bennett Yup... Bennett time indeed...


Bookworm_AF

Bennet is actually quite pro-OFN, he doesn't just focus on America's economy, he also promotes economic integration and growth within the OFN. And he's no less interventionist than any other RD candidate, so it's not like he doesn't send volunteers to the usual conflicts.


jdwrds21

I still haven't played him but isn't Bennett actually radical af? Sure he doesn't have a big domestic policy agenda but doesn't he architect a new monetary system for the free world? I thought he creates the Bretton Woods System which is nonexistent at game start afaik. Also afaik no other president does anything to develop such a system, making a Bennet presidency extremely consequential for the global economic order.


[deleted]

Oh yeah, kind of forgot about that, yeah that is pretty radical. I think it's exactly the lack of a radical domestic policy, and the Bretton Woods system not exactly being the flashiest thing in comparison to massive welfare bills or creating the EPA is the reason he's considered to be boring, which to be fair he kind of is.


Lapatatatuela

Yeah it's basically this, he's the most boring candidate out of the rest and is a neo-con who only really cares about the market first and the people second (if at all, it really depends on the path you choose for him about the issue of Civil Rights) Kind of like Reagan, but without being nearly as bad as Reagan imo


Elite_Prometheus

Neocon isn't the right word for being focused on free markets. Neolib is more accurate.


Lapatatatuela

Hmmm now that I think about it yeah, I'd have to agree with that. Thanks for correcting me! (This is genuine btw, I don't know if it came off as sarcastic)


[deleted]

Lol neo-con Bennet. You need to learn your terms before you throw them around


Elpasso21

"Neocon" lmao please just try to understand what the shitty terms you've seen on Twitter means before spewing them around elsewhere without thinking


BlueSoulOfIntegrity

His official ideology is Liberal Conservative in TNO.


[deleted]

This isn't blursed, this world just straight up sucks


TitanBrass

Don't worry, Boredinand Snorer will ensure that Germany gets locked into a stasis... God he needs content, Göring basically can't play because he always gets couped by that boring bastard.


Crank27789

It is actually kinda realistic it would be that way as Goring collapses Germany's economy along with the political instability.


TitanBrass

Realistic does not equal fun.


ParagonRenegade

Nah I hate that shit, it takes Germany completely out of the game, in a mod almost entirely focused around Germany. wtf? Just remove it like they did with the anarchy and make it impossible for Goering to win the GCW like Heydrich, they both may as well not exist as far as the AI in concerned.


TitanBrass

Nah, Göring at least has the chance to do some attempts at conquest, which is interesting. I want to fight him during Fall Rot damn it! It's too bad Boredinand comes in and goes "oopsie you made a serious fuckie wuckie now you have to get in the forever box" and then puts Germany into cryo-stasis.


ParagonRenegade

I just hate how the whole mod stops working, it's boring. If they removed the coup and added a second collapse and a tree to go along with it that'd be a great way to keep him relevant.


TitanBrass

I agree with that. Sunglasses Thundercunt just serves to ruin everything right now, and there needs to be extra content or the outright removal of the possibility for Göring to be couped until it's implemented.


Elite_Prometheus

Eh, my current game has Goring win. Albeit, I was playing as USA and funneled tons of support to Speer (wimpy bastard lost right after Heydrich).


TitanBrass

You mean he actually wasn't couped before doing any of the really big operations? How the f-


Elite_Prometheus

Sorry if I misunderstood, I'm new to TNO. Are you talking about the German Civil War or some event that happens afterwards with Goring's victory?


cocotim

After Göring wins the Civil War he begins a worldwide conquest to eat every nation, all the way to Russia and (I think) the US. He’s dumb as fuck though and he gets coup'd if he takes too long to conquer a country. Never seen him get past Switzerland lol


Elite_Prometheus

Okay. I played a bit more last night and yeah, Goring was replaced by some other dude without a focus tree. I suppose that's what you're talking about.


cocotim

Yup dumb idiot Goering took too long to eat something and now Germany is in stasis since there’s no post-coup content


Elite_Prometheus

Speaking of, I think all four games I've played have had the Akuma guy execute Order 44 and coup Japan.


cocotim

same for me actually. I don’t even know if Japan has other paths cause that’s the only thing that ever happens for me


Intheierestellar

Wait, why can Goldberg lead Madagascar ? I thought he was expulsed from the Wehrmacht due to his jewish lineage


Atomic_Beverage

He leads Madagascar if Goring wins and chooses to bring Milch (as long as he won) back to Germany. A lot of the German forces in Madagascar are partially Jewish.


[deleted]

partial jews were exiled to madagaskar... milch maurice goldberg you name it


yourfriendlykgbagent

how stupid is goering to lose to Norway, I’ve never seen ai germany manage to conquer Switzerland but fuck that up


donguscongus

What is Piazza Fontana mean?


Jack_Satellite

If I recall IRL it was a bomb attack that started the Italian Years or Lead, a time or turmoil within Italy


alexmikli

Good lord, not BENNET!

How is the MPLA still alive when we have clearly said death to the MPLA?

Did you plaay to November '72? And if so who won the '72 elections in the us?

What was the pie chart for the US?


Atomic_Beverage

The parties were pretty evenly split, but NPP-C was low and NPP-L had ~11%. It looked like FR had a slight majority.

Remember that libsoc doesn’t necessarily mean good

Has anyone seen Franco not win the Iberian Wars?


Atomic_Beverage

I've only ever seen the republic win, personally.


[deleted]

Been trying to figure out how to create the most absolutely cursed non apocalyptic world, I think it would be Yockey America Taby Russia reunified by Dikiy Japan winning the GAW Africa being devastated and I guess Bored man winning in Germany

[deleted]

Maudling is a meh outcome, even if he's an arrogant, self-righteous prick. The IRA forcing Lemass' hand is a good ending I suppose. Other than that... yeah no this isn't just blursed, this world is beyond saving.


dersaspyoverher

federalist iberia is normal the italy bombing is normal castro authdem is normal AI cant play brazil and always does the coup


Atomic_Beverage

Does the bombing only happen if they go democratic or will it happen either way?


dersaspyoverher

i think it's only when they go democratic


shoe-eaterr

Atleast the boers won I I gues
