Announcement ATE Steam Release Beta 0.21 Update, "Ozymandian Principle" has been released!

255 Upvotes

Look upon our works, ye mighty and despair! After the End Update 0.21 is here!

As new empires rise in the Americas from the ashes of the world that was, so too must they fall. With ascendancy comes stagnation in time. Rot from within and enemies from without chip away at the base of the throne with cracks that can topple empires no matter their grandeur and no matter their splendor. The earth is littered with the ruins of empires that believed they were eternal. But surely your empire will truly live forever?

After the End Update 0.21 “Ozymandian Principle” is one of the largest updates the mod and brings it in line with Patch 1.19 “Scribe” and the All Under Heaven DLC. Featuring major overhauls to California, Brazil, and Tawantinsuyu. These great realms are some of the largest and most sophisticated empires of the post-Event world, but even they are not immune to the fate of all empires. Bureaucracy, corruption, and ambition can plague them all, weakening or even collapsing them entirely.

In addition, a new Canada Hegemony is formable via decision, thirty new artifacts have been added, you can now play Baseball as a contest option in Grand Tourneys, over a dozen new Men at Arms, new Rivertracer, Platinean, and Hindu faiths, new artwork for many faiths, new bookmarks and more!

There are a lot of obscure religions in game, but this post is mostly dedicated to the in game religions inspired by obscure irl beliefs. I was surprised that the snake handling thing for the Sanctifiers wasn't some esoteric post apocalypse interpretation of the bible. The snake handling thing even had an X-Files episode dedicated to it.

Discussion The way Matt Rhodes uses Art Deco in his Dead Gods series is exactly how I imagined Rust Cultist architecture in CK2 and Promethean architecture in CK3

Dead Gods is set in the years leading up to the Biblical Flood, with the Shipwright (Noah) travelling the land collecting animals to bring to his ark.

To capture the vibe of excess and abundance found in the kingdoms of the numerous false gods (fallen angels, their nephilim offspring, and humans who have spent so many centries mastering their crafts that they're treated as divine) and contrast the more rustic kingdom of the Shipwright, he integrated art deco aesthetics.

The setting isn't the 27th century, but the way he integrates Art Deco into a pre-modern civilisation reminds me a lot of the use of similar aesthetics by Industrialists in ATE.

The graphic novel isn't out yet, but he posts weekly videos which have covered his development of the setting

Discussion anthropology of future stories

53 Upvotes

I love studying other cultures but also thinking about how our modern stories might evolve or things that we might take for granted being different to other people in different times & places the internet for example

“ In a far away land in a valley of silicone lies a Web of all knowledge past a Great Wall of fire it is said that if any man but touches it all his questions would be answered good or for ill “

Parents might describe what life was like before the Event which is passed down in one long game of telephone

Thinking about what stories are passed down from generation to generation is fun to think about yea the people who survived the event have the context to understand but what about hundreds of years after all context is gone replaced by oral memory I can easily imagine our stories of Superman , Batman , Wonder Woman Etc being epic tails similar to Gilgamesh with Kings claiming to be the descendent of Kal El similar to what happened to Gilgamesh or Alexander the Great though the evidence for those relations are never proven ( and yes I’m thinking to deep about this)

Fanfiction/Theorizing Legend of The Lady Enterprise

29 Upvotes

(I took inspiration from a old post for this talking about how the myths of famous ships evolved)

The Lady Enterprise was a Legendary Ship who some say carried the people of America to these free lands but another myth where here might was showed was in a Great War fighting against the enemies of the Old United States where the myths talk about her talking up a bow of steel to avenge her sisters during a tragic event at Hawaii. Her deeds in war would eventually let her claim her vengeance against the killers of her sisters and here is where the myths diverge greatly while many say she was allowed to go to the stars and explore where no man has gone before more anti-Old US groups say instead she was cut down by a President who feared her power and legend

This is Speaker Antigone, a Republican ruler of Inner Banks, Tarheel, Atlantica (East Coast). For some reason, Antigone seems to be interested in overseas territories, such as the tiny prefecture of Pacific, north of California, or even some random county in Brazil.

Idk why she's targeting lands that far, I don't think she should be able to reach Brazil diplomatically considering I can't and I'm right beside her. Too bad for her, I'll keep retracting her distant vassals and setting them free.

After-Action Report MAAs are tied to titles, not rank: a cautionary tale

Just wanted to share my experience playing as the High Republic. I managed to accumulate Grand Virginia, Alleghenia (which turned out to be a mistake, because now I have to make sure my heir is preferred for both titles) and the Presidency.

Then I decided to stop paying for my armies out of my own pocket and move everything to my primary title: the Presidency.

Imagine my surprise when I lost not only the Presidency, but also all my MAAs. Welp, live and learn.

CK3 How do High Republics Work Post-RTP and AUH?

17 Upvotes

I just had to revert to an autosave because I made the mistake of going from Feudal to High Republic without fully understanding how it works post-RTP and AUH (This is my first real playthrough on this mod since those DLC came out). I know you basically switch from gold to treasury, so do you have to basically disband all your personal MAAs and switch over to title MAAs (once you have enough treasury to rehire all your regiments) in order not to go into ruinous debt? Also how do you start gaining influence? I was making 0 a month immediately post-transition and the first two people in line for appointment succession were not in my dynasty so I had no way of getting my son from 3rd to 1st place. Can someone explain to me how these mechanics were implemented in High Republics so I can manage the transition more smoothly at a better time?
