One possible historical accuracy problem:the legal working week was 48 hours,not 40 in weimar,and after the depression started,the actual working time(in some cases) fell drastically to about 43 hours per week.

（I tried to send this post before but it seems to have failed due to technical reasons,nevertheless,don’t mind this if you’ve seen it before and have a good day!)
Unfortunately there isn’t any,but it in turn references from ‘Sozialpolitik in der Weimarar Republik’ S.147-148(with a list about working times),I will try to upload images later if possible
Page 55,’On Sep 1932,an emergency decree by the Papen Government officially reduced the weekly working hours to 40’
Honestly that sounds a bit strange,knowing how reactionary Papen was,but it does reference from Johannes Bähr,’Staatliche Schlichtung in der Weimarer Republik.Tarifpolitik,Korparatismus und industrieller Konflikt zoischen Inflation und Deflation’,1919-1932,S.333.
I downloaded the game on windows 10 but i cant start it. whenever i try to start the game it always gives me an error saying: object window has not been identified. what should i do to fix this problem?
Is there a guide or anything? I keep trying to do different options but every time all I'm managing to do is plunge Germany into a long civil war no matter what.
A pretty minor thing: when trying to form a minority government, the Center party routinely votes for no-confidence even if I give them the Chancellorship and have neutral relations, which feels a bit weird.
very interesting game but to be honest i do not know how it works. I keep getting repeat cards for the same situation. Do the choices i pick for the repeat cards even matter?
Yes it matter like there is a social welfare card in which you can increase or decrease the budget for welfare programmes every time you increase it it increases your vote share everytime you decrease it reduces your vote share and if you decrease all the time then it said now there is no more to reduce, purrsian police card you need to increase the loyalty of purrsian police to arrest and deport hitler or if civil war happened you can use them only if you control them and you enough time bolster their loyalty.
Yes if you increase it too much then your allies get angry and they get more tensions if you increase it during economic crises and if you are in a grand collation. And if you reduces it too much then your vote share will reduce so i never increase or decrease it.
I created an account simply to show off this insane stunt i just pulled LOL, no clue how it happened i just gave a bunch of resources to the KPD for them to switch support to my candidate and suddenly thalman wasn't there anymore guh?
Small gripe, but if the Nazis win the presidential election or are appointed chancellor and I take action to stop it the flavor text shouldn't refer to the Nazis as the pro-coup forces. Technically I'm the one doing a coup lol
I think it could be probably excused by saying that you're taking action before the NSDAP gains undisputed power over Germany, preventing the Nazi takeover before it can happen.
How do you get Einstein as president? i reformed the presidency, funded the Kaiser Wilhelm science thingy, funded the two other science choices and had 63% republic support. what am i missing??
I mean, in 1925, Edvard Beneš was in favor of the 'United States of Europe', so there was already some (very) slight leverage for the concept of the EU.
Edit: What I said isn't trying to change the fact that the EU was probably more unrealistic than other alternative historical events, but I'm saying that it was possible.
Make sure you do everything to get close to Europe; you can expose rearmament plans, drop the case for the Weltbuehne trial, get closer to both West and East until you can negotiate three times for creating a European Union. I assume getting closer to the British and French centre-left parties helps too!
The reverse is also true -- do not annoy Europeans by growing the military, forming a customs union with Austria etc.
You've got to increase funding for basic scientific research around 3 or 4 times, reduce presidental powers, and then after hindenburg, you'll get an option to run him.
I tried an anti-bourgeoisie run, denying any borgeoisie coalition or deals and always promoting social economic views and policies, while also promoting the WTB-Plan.
I feel like I found an oversight when the game told me that campaigning against the governments bourgeoisie acts is ineffective, since we are associated with the government that passed these bourgeoisie laws.
Surprised me because the game seems so attentive and accurate otherwise
Two tiny suggestions - would it be possible to have economic growth added to a graph? Also going into coalition with the SAPD seems like it should be possible, if the numbers are there. Insanely excited for Petrograd! Thank you
I know; I meant if SDP and SAPD combined is over 50%, I'd rather not have to worry about a coalition with either the KPD or Zentrum. Something tells me the SAPD would make very docile coalition partners
I could add that for the ministries you don't own, there's a special card that allows you to influence the SAPD into carrying out the policies you want to carry out at the price of 1-2 party resources.

Bro, can you give a latinized version of the reference? I can't find it...

I definitely did not reenact WWII by accident
I *totally* meant to lose to the Nazis
help

Support WTB (Labor) plan for crisis and rally for that — it's like easy-win ticket
How do I get schleilers plan to declare martial law to work
50 percent or more democratic parties (not DNVP, NSDAP, KPD)
How to declare martial law? Can you please tell me.
What a fantastic game. Had a blast and learned a lot about late 1920's Weimar Republic (and, I suppose, Germany in general.)
I hope you will maintain your drive, as you clearly have the skills to accomplish fascinating and entertaining games.
Are there are any plans for an endless play mode? The game ending when it does always leaves me feeling like there's a lot more I could have done.
there are some mods that disable end in 1934
A pretty minor thing: when trying to form a minority government, the Center party routinely votes for no-confidence even if I give them the Chancellorship and have neutral relations, which feels a bit weird.
When will the release be on Steam?
I've seen that Petrograd will be adding multiplayer. Should they add it to this too?
Damn this game is difficult (I am only playing historical mode and refuse to do otherwise)
"Oh wow, the hardest mode in this game is hard!"
I like it lol
When is the Russian Revolution one coming up? And I've got a great idea for a mod.
You can play as the KPD, Zentrum, DVP, etc. And the cards can be changed based on the parties objectives, as well with the advisors and other stuff.
I'm sure it will come out at least after June.
By the way, that mod idea does sound interesting, I hope someone could turn that into reality.
Guess you're wrong?
well the page is there, but we cant play the game yet, it could still take untill after june
I can!
I wasn't able to when I posted that lol, I can now too
I stand corrected.
Also, that mod idea kind of got made in Petrograd instead of here.
So... Yay?
Good enough, yay.
Bug: Choosing compromise for the unemployment insurance crisis passes a month without reducing the cooldown for advisor actions and cards.
continue wait for update
When is it coming out?
I don't think there's one coming soon — Autumn is making a brand new game set during the Russian Revolution.
I’m trying to get the popular front and the left plan for the economic crisis in one run for over two weeks how can I?
very interesting game but to be honest i do not know how it works. I keep getting repeat cards for the same situation. Do the choices i pick for the repeat cards even matter?
Yes it matter like there is a social welfare card in which you can increase or decrease the budget for welfare programmes every time you increase it it increases your vote share everytime you decrease it reduces your vote share and if you decrease all the time then it said now there is no more to reduce, purrsian police card you need to increase the loyalty of purrsian police to arrest and deport hitler or if civil war happened you can use them only if you control them and you enough time bolster their loyalty.
If i increase social welfare the government falls apart though because ive angered my allies
Yes if you increase it too much then your allies get angry and they get more tensions if you increase it during economic crises and if you are in a grand collation. And if you reduces it too much then your vote share will reduce so i never increase or decrease it.

Yeah, I guess we're just jumping straight to the enabling act lol
How do you get Einstein as president? i reformed the presidency, funded the Kaiser Wilhelm science thingy, funded the two other science choices and had 63% republic support. what am i missing??
dw i got it gang it was the curriculum
How do you get Marie Juchacz as president?
You must give women all their rights (both in the workplace and in their homes) to run Marie Juchacz as president.
Before or after Hindenburg?
After Hindenburg's death in 1934.
The game stopped for me when Hindenburg died…are there conditions that allow it to continue? (I'm on Normal mode.)
I mean immediately after his death (if Otto Braun isn't president).
With Abortion ?
It's not necessary.
How do you form the European Union?
You have to successfully negotiate the remaining Versailles obligations for starters.
Then you need to have good enough relations with both the east and west. after that, you can take the decision and eventually form the EU.
It can help in the Austrian parliament crisis if you manage to form it quick enough.
You need the foreign ministry for this, obviously.
I know that, but it never works, no matter how many times we negotiate the form.
It takes 3 negotiates for it to form
Edit: small clarification: it takes 2 negotiations, and then, a new button to form it appears on the foreign policy card
probably the most time consuming project in the game, but probably the least realistic so I guess it works out
I mean, in 1925, Edvard Beneš was in favor of the 'United States of Europe', so there was already some (very) slight leverage for the concept of the EU.

Same problem.
Where can i download mods for this game ?
Two tiny suggestions - would it be possible to have economic growth added to a graph? Also going into coalition with the SAPD seems like it should be possible, if the numbers are there. Insanely excited for Petrograd! Thank you
It is possible, if you forming united-left, or popular front, or Weimar coalition
I know; I meant if SDP and SAPD combined is over 50%, I'd rather not have to worry about a coalition with either the KPD or Zentrum. Something tells me the SAPD would make very docile coalition partners
I could add that for the ministries you don't own, there's a special card that allows you to influence the SAPD into carrying out the policies you want to carry out at the price of 1-2 party resources.
Plus, if you have influenced the SAPD enough, you could integrate them back into the SPD.
how can I influence them
same goes for spd-ddp/dstp or sapd-spd-ddp/dstp
cant tell you how many times those last few points tripped me up
