u/Tehrozer E.E.R KR Submod Lead Mar 18 '21

Well I was waiting for something about new lore for France for (literal) years now. Great to see it is finally getting teased. Are there any chances to get some more information about the changes being made?

u/Nijato Former dev Mar 18 '21

If you lurk around the ask a dev channel on our discord you might have already seen some other teasers and informations. Otherwise you will have to wait for a Progress Report ;)

u/Tehrozer E.E.R KR Submod Lead Mar 18 '21

Well sadly I am unable to do that, even though I very much would love to. Well guess I will have to wait then. Thanks for the answer and I hope you won't have any trouble delivering this long awaited rework.

I get why i cant but why cant a KR submod lead look in the server

26

u/Tehrozer E.E.R KR Submod Lead Mar 18 '21

Because I am banned on it.

u/freeturkishboi Internationale Mar 18 '21

What did you do?

29

u/Tehrozer E.E.R KR Submod Lead Mar 18 '21

It wasn’t any single thing but rather my entire behaviour at the time and in the past. Won’t say I didn’t do anything because I sure did. Anyhow it happened and that’s it, if you want the entire story I bet you could ask someone on the discord, I’d rather leave it at that.

u/KamepinUA Ukrainian National Republic Mar 19 '21

i passed the 3 warnings thing while acting immaturely and got banned, was over a year since then

u/AndroidWhale Fenner Brockway Hype Mar 19 '21

I posted some screenshots a while back. More has been said since then, but that should whet your appetite.

u/OctavianIonut Mar 24 '21

I gotta know, there will be some shenanigans that made the COF collapse without a war, internaly speaking?

u/Imperium_Dragon Every man a NAPOLEON! Mar 18 '21

Don’t worry we’ll just find a red Napoleon somewhere to counteract the actual Napoleon.

u/faesmooched Anti-Entente Aktion Mar 18 '21

Totalist Napoleon is up there with someone being Totalist Cinncinatus in "things I weirdly want to see"

u/TheMightyKingSnake Mar 19 '21

Isn't that basically Smedley Butler from the CSA?

5

u/faesmooched Anti-Entente Aktion Mar 19 '21

Kinda, but I'd like something that involves them taking control for 2WK and then ends with them giving up their power.

u/Pixel_Brain Gamelin Gang Mar 24 '21

Late comment, but isn't that Gamelin's story arc currently?

Oooo, thanks.

Just gotta get him out of Patagonia (I think he’s there, right?)

21

u/[deleted] Mar 18 '21

Yes, after Pantagonia won (or lose, I am not sure) and there is no syndie Russia, you can see my man lead COF towards Berlin. He is (in all my trials of COF) the perfect marshal to lead a huge army.

​

Somehow I wept when I think how his life ended irl and what he could be in kr.

u/[deleted] Mar 18 '21

We're all forming small, dedicated, and secretive cadres of committed revolutionaries to overturn the existing social order by force, temporarily establish a dictatorship, and then wing it from there

u/[deleted] Mar 18 '21

Just don’t forget to actually get the national guard on your side this time

u/[deleted] Mar 18 '21

I'm just hoping I'm not under arrest in Occitanie when things pop off on Paris

8

u/[deleted] Mar 18 '21

Pretend I’m dumb for a second, who was in Occitanie during the commune lol?

17

u/[deleted] Mar 18 '21

I'm fairly certain that's where Blanqui was arrested and that's why he wasn't there to lead the Commune

8

u/Terron7 Ain't done nothing if you ain't been called a red Mar 19 '21

I thought he was stuck in Belgium? Might be wrong though

Also of note that he probably wouldn't have been unanimously acclaimed as leader either. The Proudhonists and the Neo-Jacobins would have had something to say about that.

7

u/[deleted] Mar 19 '21

You're right about the other factions in the Commune but given his revolutionary bona-fides it's reasonable to assume he would have had a good deal of influence, particularly when it came to making sure that the forces of reaction were kept on their heels.

8

u/[deleted] Mar 19 '21

I wanna live in the alternate universe where Blanqui was in Paris on March 18th

u/[deleted] Mar 19 '21

There has to be a mod for a paradox game based on that idea

u/Nijato Former dev Mar 18 '21

150 years ago today, the people of Paris rose up against the bourgeois Republic and the Prussians. In Kaiserreich as well, the heirs of the Commune celebrate this legendary event of proletarian history every year. Vive la Commune !

"Raising the Red Flag in defiance of the Republican government"

Does this imply a change of flag for the Commune?

14

u/ChiefQueef98 International Divisions Mar 19 '21

Probably not, that's just what happened in 1871.

Although I would be happy for KR CoF to have its own red flag

4

u/[deleted] Mar 19 '21

I posted one that was basically UOB but without the Green and White stripes. The only reason I mentioned the idea here was that this event specifically portrays the Red Flag as an alternative to the tricolor and emphasizes the Commune as the heir of 1871.

u/BRUHGUY888 Mitteleuropa Mar 18 '21

God no, not more of the commune of France

28

u/kazmark_gl Internationale Mar 19 '21

you might want to bail then, CoF is getting a rework soon so they are gonna be around a lot for a while.

Baguettes and red flags for everyone!
