    US is having a moment

    Looks like you were a lot more aggressive with direct conquests than I am. I tend to prefer backing communist uprisings and then adding them to my bloc after they win.

      Infamy is always ticking down so if you aren't constantly going to war and taking stuff then what are you doing? Also one big thing it is very easy to get extra stuff as Russia while having your hands in every pot you have a big army and the european powers now this so they are always willing to give you a little something, another thing is that I have a few of my protectorates revolt and I think the devs messed up somewhere because when they want to declare independence taking their provinces is extremely cheap, I think it should've been something like a quarter of the actual cost but it seemed more like a tenth so.

        Using the money I saved by not going to war to build up domestic industries and maintain a high standard of living

          smdh you'd doom the world by never exporting the revolution, Trotsky would slap you if he could but alas he was eaten by a frenchman

          Really though obviously try to stay out of the other european powers plays so you can go in grab stuff and get out is what will fuel your future economy which in turn will grow your economy much faster which in turn will improve peoples living standard, like I had the highest at 27 with the second highest being the CSA at 25 and the one after only having 20 SoL

            It occurs to me that by conquering territory, I'll be growing my GDP, which will expand my debt ceiling, which will let me build things faster.

    I just got the hang of it and then the DLC and update came out. Is the DLC that worth it? So far Blocs have been limited without it

      I think if you like Vic3 then it's worth it Blocs are a pretty good addition to the overall game, but you could always go the pirate route and unlock the DLC
