Pre-HTTT, HTTT or DW?
DW
It doesn't work and is waste of time and resources, go back to HTTT
Galleys early game for inland seas. Later just pump money into big ships and keep a lighter fleet to intercept fast fleets so your big ships can catch them.
>Galleys early game for inland seas
Wrong
>Later just pump money into big ships
Also wrong
> keep a lighter fleet to intercept fast fleets
Guess what: also wrong
This shit has been solved over a decade ago, stop posting moronic larp ideas. Even the "official" wikia has this covered, so get fricked.
I see you have moved onto EU3 since HOI3. Good move.
Only build transports. Cogs, flytes, merchantmen and east-indiamen. These are cheap and fast and in sufficient numbers will overcome any enemy fleet.
Good post. But entirely wrong.

Light ships and heavy ships absolutely have their place and galleys are only useful early game when you need to crap out a cheap fleet fast.
wrong again moron
>He builds galleys to save money
lol

The economics of warfare, grand strategy at its finest. Only superior minds are capable of grasping it. Inferior minds seethe.
Galleys are amazing at the start of the game and the first years in inland seas because of all the bonuses they get their combat speed and their cost. The only other option you have a cogs and carracks.
Even in early game and 1399 start, you are better off building heavy and transport ships than waste time and money on galleys. There is no actual bonus to them, it was removed after EU2 (where they indeed had a bonus till naval tech 7 and became completely obsolete by nav tech 17 except anti-piracy perma-fleet in the Caribbeans). For comparison, in EU3, there is zero benefit from building galleys, since they don't auto-upgrade and thus you are better off always building heavy ships instead for their survivability in combat (and utter brokeness in DW)
Meanwhile found another 2 sources, while you are still waiting to be spoon-fed.
>homosexuals trying to tell me to find it
>they never even played the game themselves
Listen you fricking morons if you had even take 3 minutes to look for it you would be just as stumped as I am. You would have to download EU3 complete which is just in nomine and the dlc before, then you download HTTT standalone and patch it and then download 4.1b patch. The problem is finding HTTT as a standalone download, the easiest way to actually play HTTT is to just install on steam and uncheck divine wind but I don't want to install steam.
>Projecting this fricking hard
>Being this incompetent with piracy
>Being so fricking angry over random people online
Yeah, you are a zoomer all right
How often do you wipe yourself after shitting?
>Still didn't find the torrent
Be mad and stay mad
Highly doubtful you were playing EU2 in early 80s
Nta, but I never wipe. You see I happen to have normal poo which drops out cleanly every time. I dont have a problem with feces getting stuck around my hole. Life is good.
>zoomer
homie I was playing EU2 while you were in diapers.
completely wrong you fricking moron
Only ever build galleys. Nothing else. Galleys have a number of advantages over all other ships. They have oars. With so many oars they can easily swat away cannon balls. Then close the distance and give the enemy ships a jolly good thrashing. With their oars. Yes. Imagine hundreds of oars slapping down hard upon your buttocks. That what it is like. Absolutely vicious. Don't mess with a galley.
Galleys will fall apart late game to a proper fleet of light/big ships once you are sufficiently teched up. I liked 40 ship fleets with 15 light and 25 big ships, but it's been a minute since I played.
wrong
Only if you fail to upgrade your galley techs. Once your galleys have tier III oars they can out paddle triple deckers. The increased speed and maneuverability means they can close to boarding distance before the triple deckers can get a broadside off.
What the frick are you talking about? None of this is in EU3.
That's wrong advice moron. Upgrading your paddles means shit once the War Galleons have received shielded powder kegs. That enables them to open fire on you in even the foulest weather.
Stop smoking crack you dumbass. Shielded powder kegs can not protect against the awesome long range splashing power of fully upgraded paddles.
Nta but you can tech up "Waterproof Galleon Doctrine" and your war galleons will withstand any amount of splashing.
Here's the perfect fleet.
1x Cog
1x Carrick
1x War Galleon
1x Heavy Frigate
Being reminded of this game makes me remember just how shit EU4 has become. The game was like pretty good before they started adding the fricking bloat to milk cash (around the time they added estates?). Like I just wanted EU3 without cascading alliances, PUs nerfed, better colonization, and no fricking ping pong warfare and yeah that was fixed. But the bloated shit spill of game is too too much, the greedy little shits.
>Like I just wanted EU3 without cascading alliances, PUs nerfed
... then just play HTTT? DW was a mistake in pretty much every single step and the fact you now have to pirate HTTT to play it at all convinced me that it's a deliberate decision to keep EU3 in it's moronic form to keep people buying into EU4.
Can you give me a link to HTTT? it is hard as hell to find the Heir to the throne on its own but it can be done.
Nta and out of curiosity I've checked 3 biggest torrenting sites. All have working and functiona torrents for HTTT. So either you didn't check, or are super-moronic
>FEED ME REEEE
>In distance of less than 20 minutes
Go back to Ganker and stay there, homosexual
Except galleys are shit-tier in EU3, regardless of tech level, so not sure who has masturbatory fantasies here.
If you want to have useful galleys, go play EU1 and 2.
>Nta and out of curiosity I've checked 3 biggest torrenting sites. All have working and functiona torrents for HTTT. So either you didn't check, or are super-moronic
Why do you lie?
Why do you wait for others to do work for you? If you can't find a torrent or direct files for a popular title released in the past decade, it just means you are incompetent, rather than the game being hard to find.
The only elusive game by PDX is EU2:Asian Chapters, since it was market-specific and pretty hard to get in the first place, then made further difficult due to language barriers and lack of people posting it online - whatever easy sources were floating around, they've died out before EU3 was even released.
Lying arsefrick
Would be very appreciative for a HTTT download link.
I want that link bro, don't tell me you were playing it on steam...
I had all this EU3 shit on anonfiles but they got deleted. It would have been nice had this guy shilling HTTT had the files but I am certain he is playing it through steam.
Frick this piece of shit game and frick paradox interactive for being greedy fricking pigs.
