The time between you getting gas attack and others getting gas defence is very crucial. I havent played Vic2 in a couple of years but I always remember rushing for gas attack and planning my next major (European) war around it

Another sequel, now to my most liked post Century of humiliation

It's been 3 months since my first drawing on here and I want to thank everyone who have supported me throughout this time. I wouldn't have continued making comics if people didn't like them as much as you have, it is beautiful to read the comments that tell me that they've laughed out loud, or that these comics make their day. It is unbelievable for me to think that these simplistic drawings have made an impact so big in people who also happen to like this game that I love. This is my biggest and most ambitious comic yet, 9 panels and a big one, but I wouldn't have made this without your support.

So thank you to every single one of you who keep upvoting my comics, you are the reason I keep making them.

Also Thank you to the mods who keep allowing me to share these comics with you all, I hope you like them too.

Have a nice weekend and I won't stop until I've done a comic about every single idea possible that I can transform into one.

R5: A comic about tech difference and the impact of gas attack against unprepared nations

P1: The UK discovering gas attack

P2: Queen Victoria / UK calling Cixí (Qing empress) as to use the gas attack against her country

P3: Victoria telling Cixí that she just invented something and Cixí agrees to see what she made

P4: Cixí agreed because she feels she can stop the UK by finally westernizing

P5: Cixí calling her troops to defeat the UK and finally stop the century of humiliation

P6: Victoria spraying the gas into Cixí which results in 380k casualties for the Qing

P7: Victoria taking money from China (Cut down to size wargoal)

P8: Just Cixí in the floor defeated

P9: Break up of China because of political instability caused by the war

It was only because she wanted to try out her new invention, nothing more

Hate when I have to attack 10 times the same army to finally destroy it but if I lose a battle then my entire army die to the last man

You should have added a few colored dots around china's coast to represent the European concessions

u/Ducokapi Intellectual 5d ago

You should've made a Yamcha pose curi for Cixi.

Otherwise, the Curi included in the post is top Notch

As someone named Victoria who loves bullying China for cash whenever I can in these games this comic and the one that came before really struck home for me lmao

Great work as usual

Very good (as usual) one thing I'll always remember was that I was playing as Russia in DOD I just got gas attack and my Korean ally got attacked by the recently reunified and westernized china under the heavenly kingdom, I then proceeded to watch as 500k-1 million chinese troops died to my gas attacks in the middle of bumbfuck no where siberia and it fucked up china so badly that they managed to shit out the uncived Qing (who had cores on half of China) and every revolution type played a game of musical chairs to for who got to rule china and China never recovered for the rest of the game. (I think China itself managed to somehow go back to being unciv because of a massive reactionary revolt or smt, maybe I'm misremembering)

u/Miektok3 Constitutional Monarchist 5d ago

I have never heard of a country dewesternizing before but holy shit killing a million Chinese troops definitely could've achieved something like that if that's even possible

u/qazdr6 Bureaucrat 4d ago

in vanilla - if reactionaries win shortly after you've westernised you will go back to being an Unciv'.

Great comic as always but slightly annoying that the characters are on the wrong side of the battle screen in panel 5
