Tip: There's an easier way to see the executive consolidation timer that allows you to leave a federation (and several other actions). On the top right of the nation panel, there's a button that opens the diplomatic actions menu for that nation. If the timer is still going, the number of days remaining before you have full control will be superimposed over that button.
Relatedly, if a country has a coup it'll automatically be removed from any federation it's in. Throwing a coup in Kazakhstan is a popular strategy to get it out of the Eurasian Union without having to wait the full 180 days, although it relies on getting a councilor who can do that.
Unrelated to TI, but do you plan to do any more LWOTC guides? I'm playing it for the first time and have found them very useful. In particular, do you have any advice on Templar builds?
It is likely that I will eventually do another LWOTC campaign, and set it to give me a Templar as my first hero class soldier, and then also write a build for the Templar. But this won't be anytime soon. Glad you are getting a lot of value out of my guides, and I would recommend checking out Der Ava's Templar build guide in the meantime. Good Luck, Commander.
Hey thanks for posting this! Would love to see more TI content if you want to write it :)
I've been working on the next post, but had to play through that portion of the game again, as there was a patch which changed a bunch of things...
