Bug: Even when EU is formed, if you do not control the foreign ministry the Austrian customs union will fire.

(1 edit) (+5)

This Game is great, i really like how the game handels dealing with the NSDAP as a german myself.

I would like if you could add a Sandbox mode with infinite rescources, witch would propably make an interesting experiment.

Hello! I really enjoyed the game.  I could translate it in italian as a volunteer if you wanted.

(1 edit) (+2)

Sure! If you want to translate the game, feel free to make a fork on github. The game is open source, and you can compile and deploy it if you want - someone helpfully made a guide on the subreddit.

Thanks,i'll check out the guide since it's my first time ever working on Github. Hope i'll be able to translate it!

Hello i have an update. Unfortunately due to school restarting soon i will no longer be able to work on the translation. Sorry.

This is mostly cosmetic, but DVP is shown as having cabinet positions in a Weimar coalition, at least in the Shuffle Cabinet card and Austrian Customs Union event.

Suggestions about mechanics:

1. To make fundraising as an inevitable event in the spirit of the death of a party leader or a crisis. Otherwise, firstly, the problem of safescam, and secondly, the imbalance in the passages due to its different fallout. And so do it once or twice a year as an event.

2. To make snap elections possible if Otto Wels is Chancellor
3. To give special opportunities to politicians who die in the middle of the game. Müller's ability to defend tolerance is de facto useless at this stage of the game. You already have Hilferding with same ability at the beginning. For example, we can recall Müller's work on organizing the media of the Social Democrats under the German Empire. And accordingly, give him ability to cause an event in the media. Secondly, there are too few advantages to Müller's appointment as chancellor. And when the possibility of elections not in 1929 becomes more or less relevant, he dies. In the event of a "hunger chancellor" under Müller, popularity falls rapidly.  In other words, there is almost no reason to appoint Müller as chancellor.I propose to remove the possibility of snap elections from him and give different one.  Müller was head of the Foreign Ministry in 1919-1920 and signed the Treaty of Versaille. So you can give him an ability to an event at the Foreign Office if he is the Chancellor, even if you don't control the Foreign Ministry.

Suggestions about achievements:

1. The vice Fuhrer. Let Göring win the president election

2. The pain of democracy. Let Hitler win the president election

 3. A "big" popular front. Create a minority government that only the Nazis and DNVP will vote against (KPD and DVP in this situation is voting against the far right). 

4.  A sweet opportunists. Convince the KDP to tolerate the bourgeois government. Either a variant of a broad constitutional coalition, where the Social Democrats are not in government and commie OK with that government, or a really centrist coalition/a emergency government of the Center Party from Hindenburg, where the SPD and KPD tolerate this because of the far-right. 

5. The Red Threat. Increase the militarization of the Reichsbanner to the maximum (high) and the Reichbanner is stronger than the Reichswehr and all right-wing paramilitarist groups combined. (Yeah, I did that one time) 

6. The Red Army. The Reichswehr and the police are generally loyal, peace with the paramilitaries of the Communists, the Stainhelm and SA is banned. 

7. The Gender equality. To carry out all reforms of women's rights: at work, in marriage and legalize abortion.  I did that too. 

8. I said "No"! For President Otto Braun to refuse the Nazis to form a government so many times that they launched a military coup. 

9. A social-fascist. Ban the paramilitaries of the Communists, pursue it further, increase the budget of the Reichswehr, do not reform the Reichswehr and the legal system, and do not purge reactionaries in the police and Interior Ministry, always support employers in disputes with workers and support the construction of the battle cruisers. 

10. Heirs of the Spartacist suppression. Make Peace with the paramilitaries of the Communists, create a popular front, convince the Communists to support you in the presidential elections, then ban the paramilitaries of the Communists and organize their further persecution. 

11. The Comintern's Dog. Improve relations with the Communist Party through  the USSR or spies in the Comintern 6 times in one game. 

12. The eurofailure.  Start forming the European Union, but the project failed due to lack of seats in the Reichstag. To make sure that the European Union can be created only if the majority of holders are: SPD, Z/BVP, DDP, DVP. The rest voting against it. So it is impossible with a constitutional coalition or with a popular front. 

13. Free-money party. decrease the fundraising in the party to zero. 

14. The Overfulfilled Versailles. Reduce the number of Reichswehr to zero. 

15. Blind in the right eye. The judges legalized SA and Stainhelm 5 times in one game.

16. Recommunization. Suppress the Bluthmai and ban the paramilitaries of the Communists, and later legalize it and make peace with it. 

17. The police power. Ban paramilitaries of Communists, SA and stainhelm, and organize further persecution of all of them. 

18. An opportunist in the very top. President Otto Braun appointed Hitler Chancellor. 

19. A small party, big ambitions. Nominate Otto Braun for presidential election, but don't be able to convince anyone of his support from other parties, because they are more popular than the SPD. 

20. The Anti-Hitler Coalition. Convince the KDP, Z, DDP and DVP support you, and then support Hindenburg in the president elections.

21. Only legal methods. Do not increase the militarization of the Reichsbanner, do not create an iron front, hold 3 rallies that the police protected from the SA.

Suggestion: I suggest making the player notice the new achievements obtained on a present playthrough from the ones achieved in previous playthroughs (an example would be if I get the Eiserne Front and Volksfront achievement, if I already had the Eiserne Front achievement but just obtained the Volksfront achievement, make the new one be of a different color than the old one, in this case, the Eiserne Front achievement would be in black while the Volksfront achievement would be in red or gold).

(+2)

On historical mode I had given up on Prussia, had Braun chosen as President, but got Braun blocked from becoming a Chancellor because of leading Prussia.

I'm not sure if this is a bug but if you call snap elections scheduled for December 1933, the event of the end of the crisis won't show until after the elections, in January 1934 .

(1 edit) (+4)

Historical mode is quite painful.

(1 edit)

Idk if it's a bug but I got hard mode achievement playing historical mode. I also got women's rights achievement without passing reforms on abortions or marriage

Some simple suggestions regarding the game as is:
I was going to have only two suggestions but went overboard, and I hope you don't mind. The game is great as is, I don't want to seem to imply it isn't.  

Inflation:
Having state buyer (in agricultural policy) should have a monthly effect on inflation, particularly when you also control the finance ministry. 

If you control the finance ministry should make the Reichsbank help you in the event High Inflation. 

Having high inflation should have a passive negative effect, like deflation has. 

Values such as nationalism, socialism and pro_republic:
There should be a lowest value for nationalism, as is now it can get ridiculously small.

There should be more ways to promote socialism, I might have missed something in the code but I think only focusing on radio has an effect. If you do end up changing this, there should be a max value of socialism too. 

Values such as pro_republic, socialism and nationalism should have a bigger effect when campaigning, maybe as multipliers? 

Stahlhelm ans SA:
Having banned SA and Stahlhelm should effect them more so that they gain less during events or when dealing with the reichsbanner.

The strength of SA should be taking more into account during events such as all quiet on the western front, and the threshold for a civil war should be based on the strength of sa + sh, but not take whether they are banned or not into account.

I know your life is probably very busy but i sometime feel although my decisions have no long term impact I feel this could be fixed by just writing some different text if you take a decision multiple times

(2 edits) (+1)

Is there  a possibiility to prevent Engelbert Dollfuß from acting an emergency state in Austria ?(or learning Austria Socialist should be less effective after March 1933)

(1 edit) (+2)

SPD should assist their Austrian comrades

(+2)

I know it would be a huge pain, but charts for the economy would be neat. 


Also, if its not already the case, a limit on the number of times you can cut welfare would make sense the same way there is with the military. 


Also also, if I defund the military until it literally has zero troops, then I refund it with my own people, would it not be loyal? Maybe add some way that I can recruit Prussian police into the military. 

I've been thinking if you form the EU before '31 (but didn't do any economic policy) would the increase in unemployment be as harsh as it is when you don't form the EU? Would the councils controlling the economy have an effect on the increase in unemployment?

It seems a bit unrealistic that a goverment that is either led by Zentrum or that Zentrum is a part of would pass a law relaxing abortion laws, seems even more unrealistic that Zentrum would get a bump in the polls from such a law. Why would conservatives/reactionaries see Zentrum unable or unwilling to stop a law loosening abortion laws and then decide to switch from the NSDAP to Zentrum?

(2 edits)

You pass it in the Reichstag as long as you get 50% of support in total, and Zentrum always gains from your voters by opposing your reform. It would increase their conservative vote share

(+1)

The law can only pass if the SPD + DDP + KPD has a majority, and the SPD controls the chancellor. My reasoning about Zentrum getting a bump is that passing the abortion law will increase political polarization by religion; Zentrum is an explicitly Christian and Catholic party while the Nazis had an ambiguous relationship with Christianity, so I think Zentrum would be better placed to benefit from this polarization.

I think they would be better placed to benefit from this polarization, but not if they are in goverment in my view. 

Bug: I had economic_policy_timer at 14, I think I might have had it at a lot higher before, guessing advisors might be bugged.

This should be fixed now.

Is it just me or is there no image for 'party disunity' card for mobile?

It works for me!

Can someone tell me the requirements for the neorevisionist to fire? 

The nazis need 10% or more in the assembly

But is it theoretically possible to get the event to fire by 1929? I have tried multiple times, but it seems impossible.

Also, why is it that I do not get the event firing if I have an election in September 1930 and get the Weimar coalition, with the nazi at 12% support.

you need the Nazis to specifically have 10% of the Reichstag seats

(+4)(-3)

I Love your game, Will you allow us to play as other partys or is it only going to be spd?

(+4)(-1)

what's with THAT name

(+4)(-4)

its the first thing i thought of. I only created an account for this game and i based my name off this game.

(+1)

ngl you got a chuckle 

(+2)

its not planned, but if they were to do that, Z and KPD would be a good starting point, maybe DDP and NSDAP after?

(+1)

If there was an expansion i think it would be Z,  Kpd, nsdap, or dnvp. It would most likely be one of those

Bug report: When Hilferding is forced to resign, you lose the Foreign Affairs Ministry instead of the Finance Ministry.

(1 edit)

bug report: some events arent firing unless you return to the main screen. just had a playthrough tell me the july 1934 is the end of 1933:

and another one make it to may 1930 without black thursday:


(1 edit)

Are you starting from a pre-update save?

shit that might have been it

Suggestion: Maybe also normalize the unnormalized support for the parties among different groups? Right now you get less out of a group the more that you campaign in it (that may very well be intended). 

(+2)

Yeah, that’s intended - the intention is that there’s a diminishing marginal utility to campaigning in groups that are already heavily targeted.

(+1)

Suggestion: If you have formed the EU forming a customs union  with Austria should not hurt your relations with the west and maybe should not result in the collapse of the banking system. 

(+1)

Additional suggestion: If you have formed the EU the West and East should be guaranteed to help you in the case of a civil war (not sure about this if it is the Prussia coup though).

(3 edits)

The achievement "European Union" is basically close to impossibility because you spam so many homosexuality cards in the early game that progress the game by one month when they have no realistic chances of passing alongside other cards due to randomization, and the party unity cards aren't very effective either.  The game has just become so much harder and more complex in the new update.

Reason:
I improved relations with Westerners twice
I improved relations with Eastern Europeans twice
I did two steps toward forming the EU.

A total of 6 steps, still didn't work 

Edit:
It worked with Rudolf as the advisor! 

(3 edits)

Even under a stabilized economy, forming a customs union with Austria always causes the banking system to collapse. Idk if it's a rebalance issue or a bug. The party unity card seems to have limited effects on preventing a centrist resign or a left-wing split scenario 

The banking crisis was caused by French financial sanctions and manipulation, so it might have happened even if the economy were doing better.

The Party Disunity card is more of a warning that something bad is happening with dissent rather than the most effective way of addressing that bad thing…

Bug: stabilizing the economy doesn't change the budget as intended.

This should be fixed now.

It's been 2 weeks...

Sorry, I’ve been a bit busy/distracted lately… There will be an update this weekend, but after that I’ll probably have a feature freeze over August, as I work on my other games for IFcomp, as well as the steam release.

Oh, no worries, i just have noticed that updates are weekly, thats all, im sorry for making false pressure, the game is awesome!

(1 edit) (+1)

Okay, I think I suck at this game. I can never manage to get voter percent over 31% on easy 💀.

How the hell do you people get so much support?

(2 edits) (+6)(-3)

this genre of game (like crisis in the kremlin or ostaslgie) is all about finding out whats the best and its part of its gameplay lol, in general if you want high numbers do the WTB (labor economy) ASAP, hiring wyotinsiki if needed, keep doing the WTB reforms everytime you get the economy card. then spam wtb rally or radio. pfuff people's party is also useful at the costs of further angering the communists (they're bunch of useless kgb agents anyway)

i saw someone get a WTB plan before 1929

Bug report: DVP controls finance ministry if it’s vacant in the scenario of  a Weimar Coalition

(+2)

bruning is at it again...

yeah i've gotten this same issue

There is a typo in Toni Sender's advisor description:

"Toni Sender is an organizer and writer who came from a bourgeois family, but was radicalized into socialism by her. She was a member of the anti-war USPD, but did not support armed revolution."

The first sentence cuts off before finishing.

Suggestion: It wouldn't make much sense for the DNVP militants Der Stahlhlem to call for Hitler to be appointed chancellor during the right-wing militants march event when the DNVP has higher popularity and Der Stahlhlem has far more members than the SA when Hitler is deported. It would make much more sense that they demand Papen or someone else from the DNVP be appointed.

(1 edit)

I'm seeing some people getting majorities, even more then 60%(I assume on normal) But I can't get 40% on easy. How do you get a majority?

I was safe scumming

Ah, yes yes, of course. How do you do that?

Warning! It makes the game much less fun.



Make a safe, get a card, if it is not the card you like, go back to your previous save, press the advisor, press return back to main, get another card. If it is not the card you like, go back to your previous save, press the advisor, press return back to main, press the advisor again, press return back to main again the get another card. Repeat until you get the card you want. You can also save after pressing the advisor and going back to main several times, without getting the card, in order to prevent having the press the advisor many times again to change to the card you want. Remember that the sequence of the card that comes out is always the same if you repeat the process the same number of times.

Can also do the return card process. If you have political rally card and you cannot do it because of the SA, the process does not magically bypass the SA, but you can get another card or use another card to change the outcome. Also, there are cooldowns to cards.

I think I'll stick with luck

Good for you.

Can you make it so that the neo revisionist card would appear as soon as the nsdap gets high enough polling? From a realism perspective, people would notice that they are getting more popular with or without the election taking place, so the neo revisionist movement would still begin. From a game play perspective, it is not possible for those who play by getting the weimar coalition early in (me), and then try and constantly buy time, never having an early election to get the card. By the time the election happens, the nsdap would have lost so much support that the neo revisionist movement cannot happen. Or some other way the neo revisionist cards can appear for those that never have early elections.

(1 edit)

Sorry, I am a bit of an idiot, or just unlucky, because it is still possible to get the movement. You only need an election with them at more than 10% support, I think.

(2 edits)

My best on normal mode

I apologise for not mentioning, I was safe scumming.

Bug report: Enacting pro-labor policies in 1930 do not help with reducing WTB deficit if the WTB card is already in place 

UHHHHH

Sorry, I don’t know why this is happening. Sent an appeal to Play Protect…

Its just that the file is new and unscanned, i made a unscanned file and got the same response, it's ok

(+1)

The "Election Simulation" part of the game isnt updated to the new election format
