Ive finally made my initial post on the paradox boards, so this seems as good a time as any to ask for your general thoughts about them, how best to use them, etc.

Paradox's forums are the most informative I've experienced. The veterans are some of the most informed, mature, and helpful around. The only frustration w/ their forums is they are unavailable sometimes because the server is too busy, or because it's down."What did you learn in school today, dear little boy of mine?
I learned our government must be strong. It's always right and never wrong,.....that's what I learned in school."

And the search function is actually working properly!
Note also that they're using vBulletin 3 while Poly has 2.0.3-- What history has taught us is that people do not learn from history.

I've learned a lot here at first. Later on, this forum is useful for boasting with your achievements and boosting your pc...

Paradox has a nice site filled with very knowledgable people but I don't get a feeling of community there like you do on other boards.Try http://wordforge.net/index.php for discussion and debate.Comment

Great forums, I haven't been there in months but for a while there I spent a bunch of time working on that huge mod that added all the vents and such.
I cant remember the name but the historical discussions we had and how we could script them in were great.

What game are you talking about exactly? Hearts of Iron (CORE mod)? Victoria (VIP mod)? Or perhaps HOI2 and Mod33?
I highly recomend Mod33 for Hearts of Iron 2. It brings so much to the vanilla game. It starts in 1933 and last till 1951. There are a lot of new techs and more important - hundreds and hundreds of new events. Few examples: Roosevelt could be killed and never become a president of the US. The commies could win in Germany and Hitler did not come to power, Scandinavia could be formed from Sweden, Norway, Denmark and Finland, later it can switch to monarchy (Allies), imperialism (AXIS) or Stalinism (no comments) all of the choices leads to further alike events, like riots, a civil war, Scandinavian GULAGs and probable British intervention in case of Stalinism in Scandinvia. And every such major switch has its further consequences and further development. Not to mention that almost all game values have been changed (IC, MP, etc). Divisions are way more expesive now (panzers = about 30 IC). Mobilization events have been added and so on. So, Mod33 changes HOI2 considerably. That mod makes HOI2 the game about real alternative history with sh!tloads of variations.
But that mod has one, but very serious drawback.
Yeah, it's FRENCH. Any French speaking HOI2 fans would enjoy it for sure:
