wew lad
stop saying villages when you're talking about rural settlements!villages are a peasant building!
Can Napoleon spawn
stop saying rural settlementsit's rural locations
>>2221385>peasant buildingThey are called Commoners not peasants
>>2221385villages are OP and people are sleeping on them
>>2221389>local peasants power +25%
what are the differences between playing ashikaga, one of the two courts, and damiyos?
>>2221391Oh no my commoners estate is now sitting at 2% power...
>an alliance I had just disappeared with no pop-up or warning for the billionth timeWhat's up with that?
>>2221391+25% of 0 is still 0it's a modifier not a straight bonus
>>2221394buy broken game get bugs
>>2221391nta but isn't that good to reduce the power of other estates, considering commoners seem to have lower power overall?plus when you have many locations even buildings like the bailiff don't seem to impact that muchwhat bothers long term is the spam of estate buildings like the urban parliament seat and the others
>>2221391Zero times 1.25 is still zeroMarketplaces are of the devil though. Do not trust their siren song.
>>2221391oh no...
>>2221388
>>2221402wtf unplayable
>>2221391>>2221397local peasant power means the peasants get a higher share of the local tax base where you can get the highest tax ratealso villages employ peasants instead of laborers so you still get levies
>>2221402Literally unplayable. Refunding right now. Fuck you, Johan.
TOTAL KOLNSISSY DEATH
>>2221401going to kill myself in shame goodbye
Started as Milan. How do I get the clergy to pay taxes? I don't want to fund the faggot pope. Request additional taxes via parliament?
>>2221410become lutheran or something
Has anyone playing a bank snaked their way to India?
stop posting worthless images so we don't reach image limit
>STATIC THE MAP IS SO STATICwhat?This is 1531. Portugal is gone, bohemia is all over the HRE, the papcy is all over greece and into anatolia, France has chewed on a bit of germany when not losing to me, Genoa has almost taken crimea etcIts nothing gigantic but the AI isn't doing nothing.
My land is split between 3 markets, is there a way to unify all this shit?
>>2221287you just look at the diplomacy screen all the time and occasionally build banks once you get high enough relations and cash
access to markets is a direct multiplier for profit and output so its better to have more markets
Fuck my stupid chungus life, France inherited Castile
how is the Medici event triggered?
>>2221415The real problem is that the Golden Horde doesn't reliably collapse and the Ottomans don't reliably rise. You kind of need those things to happen
>>2221414We should be free to post whatever we want. How else will we identify different tags?
>>2221415Ilkhanate still not disolved, ottomans can't blob, golden horde didn't implode, ruzzians didn't do shit either.
>>2221409>going to kill myself in shame goodbyemight want to put the match to the actual firing hole and not the end then
after the 10th Alban-English Waralso >for sure I will click this button, what
>>2221415All the change happens in the first 50-100 years, tard.What your looking at will not change again for the rest of the game
do building based countries get better research considering their small and selected population pools?
How do you actually combat the reformation? You can't remove the buildings despite the tips saying you can at the cost of stability.
>>2221415the map is COMPLETELY static and NOTHING HAPPENS
>>2221391this is basically a local peasant tax buff, which can be quite powerful given that the peasants have no estate power and thus usually sit at high max tax
i was afraid that the ottomans would be doa in this start date and i was correct
>>2221415how does this counter what people are saying? (usually roughly the same) things happen for the first 100 years or so, then nothing
>>2221410why would you want to tax them anyway? it's meta to 0 tax as non catholics too to get the research bonus. catholics are just forced to play that meta
I hate how you need certain warscore to demand things in a peace dealespecially when the warscore mechanic is completely fuckedoccupy the enemy's capital? oh negative -20 warscore for you then
>>2221431so... static....
>>2221431THEN NOTHING ELSE EVER AGAINYOU STUPID FUCK
>>2221430you can after you get the jesuits from the counter-reformation
>>2221439this is worse than nothing somehow
kek
>>2221438Honestly I just hold the wargoal for X years then keep winning battles and eventually I get +100 to accepting peace
>>2221439>l-look! something finally happened! w-we got some shitty bordergore! the game is saved!
>>2221421Why the fuck did you niggers not coalition and dispute the succession? War of Spanish Succession, do you know it?
why some places have just 0 proximity when others go to minus proximity lowering the control?is this even intended?
>>2221451The fuck am I supposed to do?Also, you don't get antagonism for personal unions, so you can't coalition someone for that.
>>2221438>negative -20
>>2221425>>2221423Yeah, theres a bunch of things were certain events that almost certainly should happen but don't.The AI probably needs to be a bit better at actively pushing to exploit weakness.But they do expand, they seem to be limited by their access to CBs more than anything else.>>2221428Most of that change happened post 1430s, the first 100 years was super static for me.>>2221435Someone said 1337 looks identical to 1821 and it upset me because its clearly wrong.
as the ottomans should i be making subjects in anatolia or should i just annex everything
How do you guys improve your economy? I've been stuck on a tax base of 400 for 30 years now.
>>2221441I assume that happens at a fixed date and isn't something you can accelerate the same way you can settle the New World before 1492?
>>2221453I think it's an optimization they use where the negative one means that it's technically connected to your capital somehow but it just can't make it.When it says none I guess a calculation was done and it's so much under the limit they don't bother recalculating until much later.
>>2221391just what I wanted
>>2221454That's completely historical famously no one cared when spain became the HRE
>>2221377We need 10 more threads paracuck sisters!
>>2221464I'm trans btw
How good / important are counting houses? I've got the debate which builds 5 of them with a steep discount and I'm not if that's such a good idea. They increase "local crown power", whatever that does...
>>2221460yeah you have to wait for the council of trent to triggerbut it doesnt matter that much, lutheran preachers are quite weak and you can easily keep them in check by converting the provines where they are taking hold.
>>2221463Habsburgs were HRE and became Spain.
>>2221466spam themcrown power is crucial
>>2221453I'm guessing it's an optimization based on algorithms 101 tier knowledge. You don't need to calculate the exact amount if it's sure to be <0
>>2221458Annex annex annex, even if you get 0 controls.The ottomans events require you to own X amount of locations.120 to be able to press claims in the balkans, 300 to become an empire and 500 to consolidate the empire and accept greek culture and get full cores everywhere.Also if you're still early in the game I recommend you to go east very quickly, get Aris and Karaman fully gobbled up otherwise they'll join the Eretnid/Ilkhanate and it's a really tough fight early.
>>2221464noooo all the 10 other 0 reply paradox threads on page 10 are going to get pruned now...
>>2221431Muslims remaining in Iberia isn't the strangest thing. The Castillians only conquered them when they gained a vision of uniting the peninsula due to the marriage and whatever. Before that, they were content with letting them remain and pay tribute. The game should give a CB that lets them conquer it all once they become dominant in the peninsula though. Maybe it can even do the whole "occupation hands location over to you" thing too for locations in Iberia. When they conquer it all, an event should give a chance for them and the North Africans a chance at peace. Something that will be accepted most games by the AI unless Morocco is pretty strong or the Ottomans are involved or whatever.
>>2221469>germoid cope
catholic female bishop huh
here you gohttps://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3602405445
What's the most interesting historically catholic country to flip protestant and historically protestant to remain catholic?
>>2221470The debate makes the cost on 160 each, I'd have to take a few loans, but it's still a massive discount even if I have to pay the interest, I'll do it
>>2221477make her holy roman empress so that you can become a better man.
>>2221478Glorious
>>2221479Protestant ItalyCatholic Sweden
>>2221476>It's Germoid cope when you call King Hans von der Bützelei of spanish shithole a Germanthe french cope the same way about Chlodwig and Karl der Große btw
>>2221479I feel like England remaining Catholic is pretty cursed. It just feels outlandish for guys that far out to be talking about Rome.
>>2221472thanks
Is the honeymoon period finally ending?
>>2221478sex with Europa-chan
yo why does the pope look like this
>>2221488yeah. you can feel it
>>2221485This faggot is seriously about to start calling Charlemange a kraut I swear to god
>>2221470They boost local crown power, but the crown estate doesn't exist in provinces.I built a ton but my crown power didn't change.I'm not entirely sure if they're actually working.
>>2221478https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3602248049
>>2221488the AI is killing the game. it's the worst AI on release of a paradox game i've ever seen
>>2221492>
>>2221479>historically catholic country to flip protestant france>historically protestant to remain catholic?bohemia
>>2221494I fucking KNEW they would do it
How come I don't get an option to explore the north sea to Greenland? I got the naval range
>>2221478>>2221494I will now play your game
>>2221486Well, England was the Protestant country where it proved to be the hardest to convert most of the population. In northeastern Germany, the Early Dutch Republic(which did not posses North Brabant) and Scandinavia Catholicism collapsed pretty quickly but no so in England and arguably just died eventually (to be revived in the 19th century) because High Anglicanism became a thing.
>>2221497You will NEVER be romans
>>2221500Jormungandr will fucking waste your fleet if you try
when the fuck is this going to sort itself outi put markets in automatic why doesn't it just import food
>>2221503then why was a german crowned roman emperor in 800AD
why can't i type in custom insults? i want to call sigismund a bellend.
>>2221493Where do you even see the estate power distribution in a province, is it the same as the tax base for estates?
wtf
>>2221507Lol I had the exact same problem yesterday. The fucker build towns and cities ALL over the trebizon province and they're starving to death.I'm currently stamping down rebels to destroy said towns and build them some food later down the line
>>2221508fake news, fake church, fake pope
>>2221502>England was the Protestant country where it proved to be the hardest to convert most of the population.Because they blobbed into Scotland and Ireland and decided it would be funny to try and genocide the entire population there.
>>2221512Fleets are quick and there's a lot of sea locations. Considering that, this seems fine to me. You just can't park your navy on a battery.
>>2221494>The butt stampPretty nice

The Franks became the french. so really the french are german.
>>2221523Check out the mascot of the site you're posting on
>>2221510Demographics screen on a province has estate distribution
>>2221515I'm talking about England proper. Places like Southwestern England, Kent and London embraced the reformation fast but the North and the Midlands tried hard to stay Catholic.
>>2221526pepe?
>>2221524They completely abandoned their Germanic language. Just like the Irish have abandoned their Celtic language for the Germanic English. Paddies are Germanic people.
i've ruined france so much that his king lives in the clouds now
>>2221410Convert the Islam. Hell, maybe you can tax them extra now, do Muslims get their fancy +25% tax on Christians in this?
>>2221536All the infidels get slammed together into their own estate.
>>2221473I feel like the Mods should have just made a sticky for the game desu
Vulkan or DX12? Which runs better?
PSA to people struggling with performance:disable these two settings if you have a decent GPU
The fuck is a Chivalric order and how do I found one? In my game only Hungary has one.
>>2221541vulkan apparently
What if the Hussite bullshit never happened and Sigismund had had sons? Could Bohemia be the seat of the Empire forever, retained Silesia and Hungary, contained Brandenburg, and formed the alternate version of Austria-Hungary and become a great power?
Is it possible to speed up loyalty regain after enforcing religion/culture on a vassal?
>>2221546I WANT THE ORDER OF THE GOLDEN FLEECE NOW!
how do i see the modifiers stacked?where can i see my total pop promotion speed %
it's funny how cancelled sieges show as "Siege of Stockholm" with a rebel flag for a frame or two before disappearing
>>2221553go to ledgermodifierssearch promotion
>>2221549and most importantly, unify czech and german culture
>>2221527After they finished building there was no increase in either max control or how much taxes I'm getting from the provinces. I think my parliament just scammed me for loans they sold to Jews living in Italy
>better economic simulation than vic3How did Johan do it?
I've never finished a siege with less than 49 % in my life

The game is good and solid, /gsg/trannies are not welcome in these threads.

>>2221599Hi /gsg/
>Landfriede againFUCK OFFFFFFFFFFFFF, time to leave
The problem with the Golden Horde is that they have 200 standing men as an army left.BUT then they raise a 30k levy.
>vassals and fiefdoms have seperate -liberty desire modifiers for strength vs their liegeso you can just double the amount of subjects you can havetributaries are also seperate but they won't join ur wars, but can still enforce culture/religionThis shit is broken and needs work

>>2221571You forgot one thing>Lets non white anti western Byztrannies use xir preferred pronouns but they have to select an option that mocks Byzantium in order to enable it.
It's the 1460s and Portugal is still strong and intact, Kiev and Muscovy are slowly eating the Golden Horde and Poland is blobbing into Volynia, Halych and Lithuania. Scotland is thriving, Denmark surviving to the best of its abilities, Sweden and Norway in PU. Shame about the Greek female ruled orthodox Ottomans and the Timur horde that never happened though. France has 300k troops, I shit you not.
>>2221599Shut up janny you work for free
This game really mindbroke gsgniggers bad, huh
Giving Byzantium another try, I fended off the numerous civil wars after Andronikos III died, and am slowly working my way out into Anatolia again. I started with a no-CB war against the Ottomans which basically sealed their fate, and just took a big bite out of the Karasids.I'm going to spend some time building the economy up now, the textile output of Constantinople looks very fruitful.
/gsg/ fags will never be happy
>>2221615>>2221617>CRITICIZE MY GAME AND YOU ARE.. LE GSG
The road system needs a severe re-work. They act like roads were invented in 1337 and everyone is just starting to build them then, but many parts of the map should have at least the basic road all over at game start. You're telling me that in the 1000+ years that it was under their control, the Byzantines didn't build a road from Constantinople to Adrianople, and now that I've conquered that region, I need to go into bankruptcy just to build that little road myself?
>>2221573Why did the Moor land on an island? To moor his ship.

What does the Counting house even do? There is no local power scale for Crown Power, so what does Local Crown Power do?
This thread is filled with /gsg/ fags. I can smell the unemployed stench
The Italian wars was such a flop disappointment. The paradox YouTube video got me hype for it, and when I PU’d Naples and invaded Verona as Austria the situation started and I was like “what h fuck this is gonna get craaaaaazy” No one did anything for like 25 years and the situation ended in a draw for everyone lol. I thought France would be invading Italy and we’d have epic league wars over it.

what do you mean, what other game did paracocks release this year
>>2221668You're not even trying
>>2221629If you hover over the control icon in a location that doesn't have 100 control you can see the Local Crown Power modifier. Buildings that give Local Crown Power essential are acting for the Crown and thus increase your control in locations that are further away from the Capital.It is a representation of how well the Crown controls that location.

GM NonniesPlayed a few games as Granada before coming to the conclusion that this country is fucked. It's got a lot of problems that basically force you to play ~100 years behind everyone in your neighborhood in terms of potential scaling.>Granada as a city is a terrible capital. It has terrible proximity to basically everywhere due to the surrounding mountain range. You are forced to stick to the Seville market due to running a food deficit in all 3 of your provinces at beginning of game, which gives you a ~50-20% market access nerf to all your production right off the bat.>The first war with Castille is winnable, assuming things fall into place: Castille is in a war with Portugal, Aragon, you have a CB up your ass (have been fabricating or Parliamentmaxxing since day 1) and have an alliance with Tunis/Morocco and somehow they avoid suiciding their boats + land successfully on the peninsula. This will be a recurring issue for the rest of the campaign: Tunis and Morocco cannot be counted on to assist with any peninsular wars and you cannot expect any continental allies because Le Crusaders.>I suggest taking Seville, Cadiz, Cordoba and Jaen and just tanking the coalition if you can.>Now you have to move your capital to Seville in order to get off the ground. Logistically there are some problems with that: Depending on the size of your vassals, Seville will take a minimum of 50 and typically 80-100 years to annex and is logistically impossible to integrate without vassals. You could spam art and poetry to overtake Castille's cultural defense of... about 400 at game start, with your cultural offense of... about 20 at game start. Good luck.>You have now integrated Sevilla. It is 1430 and you are now ready to move your capital to a place that does not suck.>NOT SO FAST

>>2222048adenauer was a necessary evil with the looming threat of bolshevism to the east, and kowtowing to the westerners by going alongside their accusations against the NS regime, the consequence of which can still be felt to this day. there is nothing really to like about him. he just administered the ruins he was handed to death like a greek.he also perfectly encapsulated the difference of the mindset of the rhenanian and the prussians. the rhenanian does not care about grand civilisational project, he just cares about stability and being able to do his thing. the prussian mind was forged with the constant threat of annihilation from the east, be it lithuanians, tatars, mongols, russians, the winter, or even the arabs that the order knights faced in the holy land. the rhenanian is egalitarian, decadent and lethargic, the prussian is elitist, innovative and resilient.
>levies have low speed, thus low reinforcement rate>which means you should start attacking with them and have second regular army to reinforce the lossesbut like this you lose a lot of levys, so you're trading efficiency for your pops? also, army composition, what ratios are you going for?

How is this read? That you want 25 in humanist or you want 25 in spiritualist? I assume it's 25 humanist.
>>2222083-25 means 25 to the direction of whatever is on the left side of the bar, i.e., the negative side
ah of course
>>2222079so he was alright, he just wasnt prussian (and got handed being occupied by america)?are saxons (merkel) different to prussians?
>>2222083the minus is the left side, so its 25 spiritualist
Playing as Austria and my army is raping. Bohemias and I have no idea why. I was seiging down a castle with 7k men and they attacked with 15k and got smashed by me despite heavily out numbering me and being the defenders lol
>>2222075>In order to move your capital to a location, it needs to be a full core. In order for it to be a full core, you need to either accept the culture or have it be a majority primary/accepted culture.>To culture convert somewhere, this will take approximately 40 years.>At this point, you may consider accepting Castillian (hostile, hates you) which will put you massively over your cultures cap, just to get the full core. Move capital, then lower Castillian back down to discriminated and begin converting.>Erm. Actually? You foolish fool, you absolute buffoon. This will give you a 50 year pop satisfaction malus.>The year is now 1480. You have moved your capital to Seville. You are now 150 years behind every nation in your neighborhood in terms of scaling. You also cannot muster any actual manpower despite a 10% manpower buff in your unique content because you can only raise armories in accepted culture majority cities - also, all of your neighbors can afford just to merc up at whim.>If at any point in this process post-plague you get DoWed on, you're just dead.The nation is basically unplayable.
Why can't I push centralization? I'm trying to become a monarchy as one of the Irish tribes and it says I've hit the limit (at 70 decentralized) but doesn't explain anywhere why that is.
>>2222095Good? Granada isnt supposed to be "playable"
bribing estates really have no cooldown or diminishing returns huhINTERESTING
>>2222095I think a lot of people are going to angered by this with eu5, that now that it’s a more similationist game, there will be some countries that are literally unplayable.
if you wanted to add custom trade without changing current custom trades, do you have to lower slider or disable automation? It's obtuse adding new custom trades
I CAN'T WORLD CONQUEST AS ULM AAAAAAA WIZ SAVE ME
>>2222101are they going to spend that money in buildings?
I want notifications if one of my trades is unprofitable.
>>2222102No they won't because the game is clearly unfinished and will receive a 39.99 american dollars dlc patch that will make every shithole playable
This has never been refuted. Cry about it fags
>no button to tick off imports/exports being visible in the goods tab>adding trades in the trades tab doesn't remove them from the recommended trades belowthe UI needs some work
So if I want to play Timur are the first like 50 years useless? What are you even supposed to do while waiting for him, there is no point in developing your lands because he doesn’t even spawn in them
yuan seems undercookedhas special events and stuff but the rebellion never happens even when the disaster is a thing
>>2222118Truthnuke. This game is bleeding users
>>2222116this is the most finished paradox game 1.0 version ever including the ones that didn't get DLC
>>2222118It's so embarassing it doesn't really need to be refuted desu
>>2222123this whole game is undercooked. its a pile of shit
>>2222091strictily speaking prussians are descendants of saxon and bavarian settlers, depending on the region of prussiawhereas saxons are not saxons at all, but rather thuringiansthese upper saxons are practically the same as prussians, with the main difference being that prussia was much more navally inclined, and under the rule of the order much more internationally connected, be it diplomatically or scientically through new advancements imported during the crusades from the near east.Saxony and Brandenburg were created through the same push to the east, but they were much more connected to the rest of Germany, politically as part of the German-Roman Kingdom and geographically. Whereas the influence of the Order State could be felt throughout all of Northern Europe, nothing similar can be said about Brandenburg before the reformation. The order state was a great power in its own right, and one of the most modern, central and urbanised states that existed in its time, a fact that goes undernoticed in paradox games in general. Saxony and Brandenburg have the same martial culture lacking the strong support of the clergy and connections overseas.
>>2222075Granada has a dlc on the roadmap, so it most certainly got shafted during development.
>>2222123weird its happened every game I have played as chinese underlings
Do you need trade adv and/or trade cap in a target export market in order to export more to it? I have loads of cows in spain and want to export to middle east for their high demand, but it's not letting me up trade cap in my spain market to middle east.
i fucking love (same culture) migration
>>2222126Incredible joke.
>>2222074>Has there ever been a country that’s been in decline for 500 years just to turn it around and become a great power again?Castile, Lithuania, Poland, Egypt.But no, just keep whining about a fictional situation. I'm sure that will bode well for you.
>>2222069Lucky. I made it all the way to the age of discovery without getting a single renaissance institution as Japan. I’m just about ready to get professional armies at 1444
>>2221988>You need to understand how your estates work, fix your economy day 1 and learn how to expand crown power from the very start.
Fix border gore by making rebellion way more likely in regions of different culture or religion, attempting to convert culture or religion should piss them off even more. If you make a tiny vassal to convert culture/religion their government should get overthrown by rebels and they independence war you.
The playerbase will drop to 30k by tuesday.10k by friday.
>>2222130from mousing over i think they did sorta try to acknowledge it but they're swedish and should be either murdered or ruled by danes
>>2222147TWO MORE WEEKS
>>2222126you've got to be joking
>>2222118>Too many locations This is still the most retarded shit any fag's ever said. Granularity adds immense enjoyment to the game. These fags just like the more arcadey gameplay of EU4. The news is, it will always be there for them. They can and should go back.
I dont really want to be a negative nancy, but now that I'm done mostly figuring out the mechanics the gameplay is rather meh. The first century feels like a worse ck3
>>2222088kek
>>2222155the first century is the only time the game is fun since shit happens then, and then it freezes for the next 600 years
>>2222062>Has there ever been a country that’s been in decline for 500 years just to turn it around and become a great power again?China, Spain, England, Russia.>>2222064The closest thing I found is the build to army button on an existing unit.
>the /gsg/ troon is angling for the getEmbarassing desu
>>2222143yeah it's a mouthful but I promise it's way simpler than that.>Delete all your forts, delete your 200 regulars, delete the seargentry building in constantinople>balance the sliders so you are in profit but gaining as much stability as possible and ticking up legitimacy slightly>keep your estates happy but if you see anything that gives you Crown Power do it no matter whatJust stabilize until the disasters go away.
>>2222109well yeahbut if you bribe them happy they will build useful stuff
>>2222148sweden is practically the scandinavian version of what you see in east germany anywayI think they don't like to acknowledge the Order State because it defies their anticlericalist narratives. In fact that is much of the reason why the state often gets swept under the rug nowadays in favour of its Hohenzollern-led successor state or the Atlantic states crucial in the age of discovery.
>>2222149And a tea break.
>>2222129calm down buddy
>>2222099>>2222102I think it's a major flaw of the game TBQH. One of the fun parts of PDXslop games are playing nations that are underdogs and turning them into decent powers. I'm not saying that, like, Brittany should be able to 1v1 France and somehow turn out to be Better France - but it seems like out-scaling in this game is either literally a 500 year project, or logistically impossible.In Vicky II for example - if you're willing to have a hell campaign, you can turn Ottomans into a late-game powerhouse by literacymaxxing despite their On-The-Brink-Of-Collapse position at the beginning of the game - and as I think Vicky is the closest PDX has released to this game - you're never going to be GP1 as Mexico, for example, but with good play you can certainly become the dominant Major Power in your area. I feel like in EU5 unless you play one of the Major Powers or someone de-facto scripted to become a Major Power (Ottotan, Muscovy, Vijaynagar) the game itself is designed to prevent you from even being a regional power.
>>2222126What a joke.
>>2221391>>local peasants power +25%literally the best option to give power to; giving nobles power is a much bigger headache and their estate privileges are a pain to revoke and they spend their money on stupid shit. same with priesthood but at least they can help literacy.unless you're doing some specific strategy your ideal outcome is always gonna be full-on North Korean authoritarianism with as much Crown Power and central authority as possible since that goes straight to (You) the player to manage and not the AI. Having powerful peasants under your authoritarian god-emperor rule is preferable to nobles trying to undermine you since they're easier to keep happy and suppress.
>>2222133maybe spam trade offices in your target market, so you have trade capacity in their market and use that to import your cows? i'm not sure though.
>>2222095>In order for it to be a full core, you need to either accept the culture or have it be a majority primary/accepted culture.Can't you get it as a full core just by annexing the vassal you had there who had it as a full core?
No matter what flaws there are. This game released better than any other Paradox game. That is all that matters, it is instantly the best and top. It is the King of Grand Strategy.
how do I speed up observer modeI have a 9800x3D and this shit is so slow at max speed
Is this working as intended? Because I'm pretty sure 7 is more than 3 but they're all happily working their asses off creating mountains of useless rubbish.
>>2222144No, that's dumb. They should fix bordergore by making provinces at 0 control rebellion galore.
>>2222138Why are you so mad about it lol. Are u johan or something
>>2222172you can definitely do some wild underdog shit because of the dumb AI thoughbeit, and what fun would a 500 year game be if you could outscale everyone in 100 years?
>>2222175>no bro you absolutely need that 25% more income from 10% more crown power it's worth fucking your equilibrium which means you can tax them less and you lose all these bonuses that set your values up
>>2222132i put the game on speed 5, picked every decision to make the red turban rebellion worseconstant bankrupcy and negative stability too, but the disaster has been on going for 10 years without any rebellionsi'll try to let it run longer and see if anything happens
>>2222121You can tag switch to Timurids when he becomes an adult if you play as the country he spawns in. You can just do your usual blobbing and economymaxxing while waiting for him to become an adult.
>>2222166it seems like a win/win situation
>>2222195tax the shit out of everyone to make them unhappytake their rights away
>>2222098The limit is usually because of the modifiers you have. The closest you get to one end of the slider, the harder it is to move. So you need more centralization modifiers.
>>2222195>>2222201the game is designed so badly and so cushiony that you can actively try to fuck up your country and nothing bad will ever happen lol.
feels like separatism caused a lot of actual implosions to happen in eu4, where they ended up with break away nations that kinda make sense, but all i ever see in eu5 are estate rebellions, like clergy rebelling in golden horde, taking over the whole country and then it's just the golden horde again.
>>2221996well technically not all of itbtw 2 xyivs
>>2222188Just add that ck2/3 rule where enclaves go independent on the death of a ruler (unless HRE)
>>2222116Umm, chuddie, paradox has adopted a subscription model for their dlc. EUV is a live service game, okay?
>>2222209this is true
>>2222209>feels like separatism caused a lot of actual implosions to happen in eu4Anon what the fuck are you talking about
astrology works btw
EU5 is the best
>>2221957Automating research is in no way the sensible choice.
>>2222197It’s random where he spawns as an adult, he’s a child in barlas. So what I’m saying is that blobbing and economy maxing is a totally waste because it’s for lands that won’t ever be yours again. Even if you conquer them as timur they won’t matter because you’re going to focus on china/iran as your power base anyway.
>>2222222Yes lolBasedbasedbased

>>2222192>74.74%Bro...raise your maximum peasant taxThe bonuses from high peasant satisfaction isn't even decent
>>2222217Secondaries raus. Back to the depths of /jp/.
>>2222211Your vassal network is cursed as fuck. Is this really how the game is meant to be played? Also you’re looking like the eu4 Muscovy now, nice.
>>2222195Rebellions happen via eventEither you're just given that much leeway or you got fucking btfo by MTTH
>>2222209Noble rebels, religious rebels and particularists always spawned like crazy in EU4 the only difference is they are treated as a civil war in this game.
>>2222179Nope! After you annex the vassal (which takes at least 50 years due to not having enough magic culture points) it just becomes an integrated province for you.Erm, actually? This game is a simulation.Don't you know that the Safavids didn't extract any value out of conquering the entirety of Persia in 20 years?You see, Azeri and Farsi were hostile cultures, and Sunni and Shia were hostile faiths, so they spent 800 years developing their land just to be able to fight the Ottomans next door who had been scaling since day 1.>>2222190Sure, and that's well and good - I'm not asking for Game's Over By 1550 like in EU4. I personally don't want to play a weeklong campaign and be barely struggling to survive until 1800 due to factors I can't reasonably influence.
>>2222222>/vst/ gets raided for the digits>a local still gets itnice
I’m so sad burgundy is unplayable :(It’s simply not possible to make yourself or anyone else not loyal to fr*nce.
>>2222236I have a -10% Max Peasant Tax at the moment, thats 62%, the other 10% I'm missing is German Settlers which I saw someone say was strong so I'm trying it out. It's been mediocre for me but I didn't realize it gave me diplomatic options to steal people's dudes so it's probably good if you do that.
>>2222209Separatism (called nationalism ingame) is definitely a thing. My asian colonies rebel all the time because of low control.

>>2222251it'd be interesting to see golden horde break apart into their cultural groups, like crimean revolt, astrakhani revolt, and kazani and nogays or whateveri keep seeing them have estate rebellions but they just stay whole after those because i guess the people aren't that pissed, just the estates are
>>2222252Why’s this retard game show me the buildings others are making, thus making the whole map unreadable and clogged. When I want buildings on I just want my buildings obviously. I don’t care that fartenburg (1k pop) is building an outhouse.

>>2222294can she reproduce
>>2222292But traditionalism makes stability slider much cheaper which is a nice tradeoff.Unless you have a way to get a passive gain towards innovation it's better to stay based and trad.
>>2222299No idea, doing it gave me a giwtwm boner though
>>2222258Unfortunately you can only hide all markers, not just foreign ones.
>>2222282You will never fit in.
>>2222301innovation gives you max literacy though, which is very nicealso you will eventually grow tired of entering a new age, having three institutions spread to you, then having to take -100 stability hits three times in a row just to embrace them
>>2222284Most of them are trade-offs, but yeah, Centralization is a clear winner. Another one I think that's like that is Individualism vs. Communalism. Free Subjects also seems better than Serfdom to me. Probably Innovative rather than Traditionalist as well. Quality vs. Quantity, Quantity has frontage which seems way better than what Quality has. Traditional Economy is what you want at first but eventually you move over to Capital Economy once your food industry is settled. Offensive and Defensive, I'll always take Offensive. Aristocracy I think you just have to deal with it in early-game because the stuff that gives ticking Aristocracy is really helpful, but eventually it's nice to chip away towards Plutocracy to get rid of the power buff. Then there's stuff like Land vs. Naval where it depends on the holdings of your state. I think Inward is better than Outward. Spiritualist and Humanist, I felt the pain going Humanist and trying to convert people. Humanism also doesn't give you great stuff by itself, it's mostly just a fairly diminished Reform with Innovative. That leaves Belligerent vs. Concillatory and Mercantilism vs. Free Trade which I'm not sure about.

>>2222347UI not very good.AI kind of bad.Otherwise it's Paradox's best 1.0 and there is no contest.
How do you actually core provinces? Playing as Sweden and I conquered bunch of shit from Novgorod and some of the 100% Novgorodian provinces turned into "Core Rural Settlements" while some did not. I can't see any logic or explanations behind it.

>>2222341>england has a slight advantage if you play your cards right.My big issue was my vassals being useless and squatting in Britain instead of helping me. My strategy has been to roam around and rape the French vassals to get enough warscore to peace out with some gains, before the French send a doom stack to rape me. My big success was after I allied with Castile and they helped me occupy the capitals of a few French vassals that are now under me. I don't really want the French throne. It feels like it may prematurely make me too powerful. Who knows though I'm still very early.

>>2222392Just hover the province in the population growth map mode and then mouse over the % growth modifier.Once you've built granaries and max expanded food rgos, there isn't much you can do for most countries. Pagans get a pretty massive pop growth buff, but that's about it
watching armies zoom around on raidroads is funneh, ridiculous speeds
>>2222347I am immensely enjoying it. Haven't enjoyed a GSG like this since the days of hoi3/vicky2/eu3
>>2222414Did you play Yuan for 10 years or something? I tried just automatic everything and let the game run until I got the rebels, but not doing anything plunged Yuan into a complete bankruptcy death spiral long before that
>>2222420>Once you've built granaries and max expanded food rgos, there isn't much you can do for most countries.There is one thing, don't urbanize if you don't need it. Towns have low % pop growth
>>2222413Tolerated doesn't cut it? What good is tolerated then for?
>>2222349Where do you see diplomatic hegemon??
>>2222420what is the most effective ratio of cities to villages if you want to get the highest amount of food stock pile and the rural settlement bonus in a province
>>2222427More pop satisfaction which means more control
>>2222415A lot of the anatolian land has substantial greek minorities at the start of the game, so they aren't as bottlenecked by culture conversion as other tags.At the moment, OPM vassals are slightly OP in their capacity for culture conversion though. Annoyingly it seems to be random as to if they'll start converting or accept the culture in the province. Maybe something to do with cultural antagonism if I could be bothered reading
>>2222424it's all kicking off in 1359 for me every time these guys form their breakaway nations, i get to choose to become them or fight them (and wait for a different nation to play as)
LGTSS>using levies in the year 1337+456
>>2222437jesus christ
>>2222429If you want the absolute highest? 0:1 lol, at least until your provinces hit the pop cap. A lot of mesoamericans start there so they actually make good use of expulsion early game for pop growth and coring.The main reason you should be building cities is for income, control and to expand your population capacity when your rural settlements become too urbanized
>>2222402I haven't built any ships though
>>2222389one province vassals are more efficient at converting
So if I want to integrate a PU partner that joined the union late, I have to wait until they choose to waste parliament votes raising their integration level? I can't encourage them to do it?
>>2222437>luckily we have got the maxim gun and they have not
>>2222443And there's no real diplo cap tradeoff either
>>2222437This is actually how the Italians fought historically.
Is there no way to reinforce while on the offensive? Like I can't wait in an occupied province? The fuck.
>>2222414Don’t pick the rebels. You get sucessive pops until Ming spawns, which is the strongest and coolest of them.
>>2222437>1337+456>not using levies
>>2222444Click on the PU parliament, start parliament, bribe their estates.
>>2221870completely useless, that option provides almost no pops. I NEED MORE, especially I need to find a way to abduct pops of other nations without conquering the territory, as I can very easily convert + assimilate
>>2222415You can also get significant cost reductions by using diplomacy. You can curry favors with a nation that has the culture you want to accept as their primary culture and then use those to raise their culture's view of yours, then accepting them is nearly free. You can probably also release a vassal of that primary culture, let them go free, ally them and do the same, but I haven't tried that yet, it's a bit gamey for my tastes.

>>2222429>>2222441Oh, and for manufactured goods, obviously.

>>2222454You mean the REAL Ming, right?https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ming_Xia
>>2222459I'm loving every second of my playthrough and I'm only ~15 years into the hussite wars
>>2222452>almost half are deadunlikely italians played pretend wars and ran off at the first contact
>>2222441is building farming villages in rural provinces not worth it?
>>2222465absolutely out of the question, jerusalem has to be christian
>>2222456>PU parliamentThe tab is unlabeled so I didn't know it was clickable. I have never opened this tab before.This fucking UI, man.
>>2222475That ship has sailed. You're already Catholic, not Christian.
>>2222475>Catholic ConstantinopleWho owns it?
>>2222467slave center you mean? that can only be built in center or west africa, which would mean i need to start colonizing i mean jerusalem colonising africa to use its workforce for the glory of christendom sounds pretty based, but did not plan that
>>2222411found itflavor_flo.57but when u start as fugger or welser the characters are -60 year old babies lol
>>2222469The AI does. It feels like the game expects you to have 1-2k saved up at all times, or that you take loans often.
Any Portugal tips?Castille is piss easy as you are big guy in the peninsula, but I'm trying Portugal and I keep getting raped by Castille. in my last save I lost fucking Lisbon to them in the 1360s.
>>2222480i do, its francien too
>>2222481No, slave market and slave center are different buildings. It should be available from day 1, I guess you don't get to have it because you're Christian?
How is this fair? I get their tax base x1 and they get their tax base x4?? Fuck off
>>2222487yep most likely
>>2222485You'll just have to try to form an alliance with Aragon and somebody else, they're gonna come for you sooner or later.
>>2222470That’s in the game and just called Xia. There’s 4 more pops between Xia and ming (there’s, like, 12 rebel pops).
How2absorb Hungry/Dutchy of Lithium?
>>2222498centralize the PU
you don't
>>2222485I played with portugal and managed to get good relations with Castile, idk. They never invaded me. The civil war was ass, though.
>>2222473Farming villages are a strict positive wherever they're built. The main reason you wouldn't build them is if you plan to urbanize to a town/city in that province or you have more productive investments elsewhere.They're much less economical for building food capacity than granaries, but in most of the world you don't have a city in every province anyway so it doesn't make a difference
>vasal is building towns faster than my integration progress >time to integrate has went from 15 years to 70Fun game you got there johan ^)
Forcing someone to move their market center in a peace deal is such a funny concept.What exactly are you doing, forcing all their merchants to only trade in your city?
>>2222505can you destroy his towns
>>2222510Why not it's consistent with the simulated world. If pops can teleport why would it be an issue?
>>2222510Probably supposed to represent burning a trade hub or something. Centers of trade absolutely did get destroyed historically* to harm opponents.*It actually still happens
>>2221377What are you supposed to do against this? Is it a bug? It's fucking ridiculous.
Is it dumb to build workshops in Vassals and Fiefdoms? Do you lose profit at all vs building in your own lands?
It's starting to fucking piss me off how randomly the game skips pop ups and decides what's worthy of your attention.Sometimes I get a message window for a finished work of art, sometimes I don't. I was wondering why my treaties disappear randomly and it turns out a mysterious stranger is somehow quietly forcing me to cancel them on the regular. I mouse over tooltips and it turns out I have xbox hueg temporary modifiers nobody cared to inform me about. Shit's annoying.
Is Sweden with it's starting provinces close enough to colonize Canada? Debating whether to go for Diplomatic focus or not.

>>2222472>ran off at the first contact>he bought?>flee
>>22225248k horses, they are unbeatable
>>2222519it will be more expensive to annex them
>>2222483>or that you take loans often.my estates have no money and every bank is offering me either 1 or 18 ducats
>>2222525I hear that's not the case
do you directly own buildings that you build in your subjects? i haven't tried it
>>2222519>>2222525>>2222534Building in your vassals is probably more profitable than building in distant non-core land where you have 0% control.
I dunno how to get 50 prestige, war gives no fucking prestige and humiliate rival only gives 5
I'm executing 250 frenchmen. AMA
>>2222539Just lose battles, those peasant levies don't matter.

Is there a way to see across multiple markets what products are in demand and the profit?
I just made a new colony and it says the POPs there are starving despite there being a food surplus in the province. I want to ship them food, but I don't know how to actually do that. How do you manually create a new trade route that isn't one of the recommended trade routes?
>>2222537I believe the answer is no
If you can't beat your enemies, invite them to join you I guess? This feels cursed but I got tired of having the trouble of adding the native Swiss minors to the confederation just to see them getting involved in bigger foreign wars and getting annexed or vassalized. I also invited Wurttemberg to the confederation moments later and they accepted. This is probably going to fuck the Swiss unification law mechanic later on or maybe create some huge swiss blob. Note that tha law to allow non-Swiss countries of related cultures had already been approved.
>>2222550Open the market with the demand and then in the goods panel, it allows you to import/exportI think food works the same way
>>2222550It always says that during the first few months, they're probably not actually starvingI think it's production -> pick the market -> goods
>>2222554Also, whom should I invite next? And I forgot to add that members can't declare war upon each other
>>2222547That is enough to keep it around 40

is there a reason why you would ever have a town over a city
>>2222570does it localize to Kiev when held by russians or did you install a zigger mod?
>>2222570Will it take the real life russians over 200 years to achieve this too?
>>2222570Somebody call Lambert and stop this man
>>2222574this game localizes a lot of places to owner language unless you disable it in settings
Its actualy pronounced kyi-ACK!
>>2222574Its literally Kiev in everything except the name of the tag. Even the tag itself is Kiev
>>2222571alright I got it done with a couple marriages, becoming an empire looks like a no-go though
>>2222578i know it does, that's why i asked
why is beijing called khanbaliq
Did ruthenians really call it 'kyiv'? I thought it was kievan rus
>>2222585I use the mod so it's always Kiev, I'll create a new save and test it out later without the mod.
>>2222586https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dadu_(Beijing)it's where the khan lived so they called it khan-town
>>2222591because the guy who founded the place was named Kyi it's just that we've always translated history of that area from russian to english
>>2222581It is bizarre they decided to call the country that (something no one does) instead of the city if they were going to do one thing. It is almost like it was some optics thing to have it appear big on the map initially. Sort of like how Muscovy is weak at the moment while many do there first playthroughs and publish videos. When Muscovy gets buffed later on it will prove it.
>>2222591It was the Kyivan Ukr actually.
>>2222586thats what the mongols called the fortress they had there before the city was called beijing
>>2222593oh and khan is like king. so it's like konigsberg or regensberg or kingston
>>2222570Post post-war map. What is colonizing Siberia like?
>>2222586Because it's "khans city". Beijing got renamed like that (north capital vs nanjing south capital) by the Ming. It has had like dozens of names before that.
>>2222601yes pretty muchremember that the yuan dynasty was ruled by the mongols
>>2221453Because they are cores, you get 0 control when they are far and are integrated land
does anyone know why my ruler gets randomly removed from being an admiral and then disappears from the list so i cant put him back? just wanted free crown power
>>2222595Wasn't it oleg son of the varangian rurik of novgorod?
>>2222608Are you in an union? They constantly move between the countires, it's annoying as fuck
>>2222586because the guy who founded the place was called khanits just that we've always translated history of that area from chinese to english
YEAH GET EM TIMMY
>>2222603Colonizing Siberia just doesn't work because you can't explore Siberia for w/e reason
>>2222608does he have responsibilities elsewhere? like is he a ruler of some other counties or duchiesit's happening to my heir right now because he holds like 10 titles
ottoboos I don't feel so good...
>>2222611oh so that's why my heirs sometimes disappear from the cabineti noticed they randomly get married off by the other members of the union as wellkind of hoping this gets fixed so that whatever country the ruler resides in has final say on what his family does
>>2222611>>2222616oh yeah forgot about that, im in a union. didnt know they moved around
it's 1380 and ming or xia still hasn't poppedi've just been sitting here as yuan watching everything go to shit in speed 5 lmao
I'm still trying to figure out trade. Why can't I increase trade cap on these dyes?
>>2222622Why is your ruler transcending to a higher plane of existence

>>2222623The correct pronunciation of Genghis Khan is "chungus khan"
>>2222623they don't have enough dyes, look at their balance they only have +0.03

real colonialism being locked behind a slowly spreading institution is fucking terribleinstitutions should have been research and stat bonuses not locking whole wings of the fucking research tree
I can understand PUs between various sovereign countries but I can't understand why my ruler is the earl or count of a vassal state in his own kingdom, shouldn't that merge with the 'main' country instead of being independent?
Anyone played as the pirate republic in Ryukyu yet?

>>2222643It doesn't no, Siberia is just out of my reach for now.
>>2222640An anon posted about it yesterday, apparently pirate buildings give OP income in the early game because they're balanced for the 18th century

>>2222689I hate russians too if that matters. Slavs should be slaves.
>>2222685it seems like they can only trade their positive balance of a good, like if they have 2 supply and only 1 consumption, then they can export 1 unit of it don't know why they don't empty their stockpiles for export but maybe i'm misunderstanding somethingi know that stockpiles are used up when building a building that requires that good though
>>2222693>It's siev
it's kiev for me because i ate chicken kiev when i was a kid also beijing is peking for meyup i'm british
>>2222573Affordability in the early-game. That's pretty much it, either go rural or go city. I don't think it's worth downgrading the ones you do have because people will migrate to them and they tend to start with decent populations.

How the hell do coalitions work? I'm expanding as the Ottomans and have a flag at the top of my screen that says I MIGHT get targeted by a coalition of Serbia, Bulgaria, and Epirus. That makes it sound like it hasn't happened. But Serbia keeps declaring on me and losing. But I can only take Serbia's land in the war, not Epirus and Bulgaria. Then I'm stuck in a truce with them all, and the literal day it ends, Serbia declares on me again. I want to take out Epirus but I can't because I'm always in a truce with them, or in a war where I can't take their land thanks to fucking Serbia constantly declaring on me. I even took the "dissolve coalition" treaty in one of the wars, got a popup saying "coalition dissolved!", but the coalition flag is still at the top of my screen and Serbia still declares on me the day the current truce ends. The fuck is this shit?
>>2222710prolly good to downgrade the stupid ones the AI buildsThey just build towns literally every tile in areas...And it goes from 8 RGO to 4
an earthquake happenned in the province my army was at and it killed all my fucking soldiers wtf
>>2222728When you take land it makes your neighbors hate you. If they hate you enough they will form a coalition to rape you.
>>2222727me, i'm from poland and i flew to mediolanum 2 years ago
>>2222733Allah is punishing you for invading a muslim city
>>2222732That's fair, I more so meant the ones at the start date. Basically consider it like that, if the RGO is really good you might want to downgrade.
>>2222711Slav men should do labor and slav girls should be sex slaves. The women and boys can be used in breeding camps to produce more of the previous two.
can you guys stop deadnaming our xities
>>2222727it's spelled Rom*
>>2222734I understand that. What I don't understand is why:>The flag at the top of the screen makes it sound like the coalition doesn't exist yet, but might soon, when it clearly DOES already exist>Why Serbia is declaring on me every single time on the day the truce ends despite getting raped each time they do>Why taking the "dissolve coalition" treaty does not, in fact, dissolve the coalition for 15 years as it claims it does.
>>2222739every RGO is good except for legumes or somethingIt's free resources, all profit
How do people play with nations that have slaves? The way pop promotion works makes me feel that slaves arent useful at all.In my town I have 6000 labor employment slots because my RGO is lvl 6. There are 3k slaves and 3,5k laborers. It will keep promoting peasants to laborers even though every laborer over 3k will do literally nothing. Instead of being promoted to upper strata they will just twiddle their thumbs.
>>2222750what's wrong with legumes?!
It's amazing to me that I can have a ton of fun and development with 2 wars that only took 6 locations in 40 years.

>>2222741Literally the opposite you historically iliterate dumbfuck. Slavic girls worked the fields while slavic boys were forced to impregnate the sultan's harem.
>>2222758rivals can intervene in wars
>>2222720How does this happen?
how do i make it so liverpool isn't in the dublin marketi get that it's closer to dublin so how do i reduce its distance to london so that it's not in a separate and shittier market?
>>2222763Any way to know if it's likely to happen? Bulgaria had a truce with me at the time, so it seems like bullshit that they could just do this.
>>2222765Did you build a road to it?
>>2222764beat byzantium, take constantinople off them, convert it, take in sons of previous emperors and place them in charge of the bishropic
>>2222765Market attraction makes it more likely provinces join that market. Market protection makes it more likely provinces will stay in that market.
>>2222768yeah but london is so far that the road basically doesn't do shit>>2222770alright i'll have a look at those modifiers
>>2222765Hover over the province in the Market mapmode
>>2222767>Any way to know if it's likely to happen?I think it's based off of opinion>Aragon intervenes in my PU war against Portugal, but nobody else does>Tunis intervenes in my war against Morocco but nobody else does
The Luxembourgs are gonna die out because I have had nothing but daughters.

Are there any downsides to upgrading to a Rural town/Town/City? Can't seem to find any, guess bigger food consumption
>>2222622Why don't you want to play as Chen?
>>2222660You can expand to your frontier as south Americans idk if its only them but also Polynesians definitely should be able to colonize.
>>2222780I tried my best to keep them around but they are almost gone in my game. They dont even have a Luxembourg anymore, its a custom country "east luxembourg" and their last king got replaced by a fucking lowborn king in bohemia
>>2222790Less RGO workers, which is why you should keep high value RGOs rural while building cities on shitty ones
>>2222791they don't have a cool flag and i wanna see the other flags
>>2222622I think it failed because you let Chen conquer the Nanjing area
>>2222691No luck, I might have to conquer around it.
>can't build tin supply chain because my faggot vassals create local demand in their own markets
They added the mechanic where generals can't teleport to armies but it literally doesn't do anything. You still get all the bonuses of having the general while they're still on the way.

>>2222832A 10 control floor change isn't worth the investment IMO. Maybe 0 -> 20 in a very wealthy rural province, but meh.You'll increase your control there eventually, but it won't be because of baillifs.
>begged the Pope for a cardinal seat>constantly spammed with votes for bulls>it's literally just the Big French Bull slapping his 10 cardinal long dick on whatever it likesMan, fuck the fr*nch.
>>2222840But now you can vote for a crusade against Egypt whenever you get enough influence! And everyone else will vote against it.
>>2222820Behold, a transgender woman

>>2222790Tanks your pop growth by 0.1%
stellaris tier modifier stacking
>>2222839I spammed a bunch of Bailiffs as Spain after not building them all game and my income and control went up a good amount. But they're expensive and Spain is big, I still don't know where they fall really. I might try building some now as Bohemia.
>>2222835hit escape -> world map
>>2222820I am a transgirl from Kyiv and I finally feel represented in eu5
>>2222831Control spreads better through sea/rivers you nogger. As England you should have high control on your coastal regions.
>working on vassalizing a neighboring opm>they're past the threshold and I just need a diplomat>suddenly get a message>Opm has left the alliance as it no longer exists>check wtf is going on>they've been replaced by Opm noble rebels>next month opm rebel country is gone and normal opm is back>except all diplo, relations, etc are goneHoly shit this game is broken on so many levels
So do these ever become useful or am I just flushing a mountain of ducats down the toilet to LARP as a Renaissance art patron?
i need more pops for a tall run as catholic, cmon give me some ideas, migration and pop growth aint shit. isnt there some kind of slavery mechanic for catholics akin to slavery in imperator? where i siege shit down and get pops?
>>2222852one of the worst releases for a paradox game in recent memory. So bad.
>>2221709Another one lost to the tranny death cult. Many such cases.
>>2222848roads are generally better unless you have snaked or gigablobbed far away. bailiff doesnt do anything if the province has more than 20 proximity to capital.
>>2222853No, utterly useless. I played till 1650 and these faggots did nothing but waste money
>>2222852if rebels win you can never do any diplomacy with them ever because they are permanently considered a rebel tag
>>2222852>government of nation falls>replaced by new nobility government>foreign relations and favours with the old rulers goneThat's realistic
>>2222859That's like 3/4ths of spain at least
>>2221716That's my steam account and I'm not a tranny you fucking stalker faggot. Kys.
>>2222615>>2222805This is a bug, nobody can explore inland provinces
If the HRE denies me the Archduchy event am I fucked or do I get a second round later
>>2222853its surely worth it, you are a very successful larper and your artist friends bring all the art hoes to your parties (in-game ofc)
>>2222862Fuck off, that is not realistic. Nobles cant just utterly destroy a countries foreign policy after one war
>>2222862you don't get it, the game sucks and you like eating shit...
>>2222859I had roads everywhere already.
>>2222852i'm pretty sure it's intended as that is considered a government change
EU5 is literally shit on a plate
>>2222866Are you Austria? It's beyond easy to get elected emperor
>>2222869Tell that to Iran
How do I get rid of slaves? They don't promote at all, I have the same number of slaves as when the game started
>>2222838I've only ever seen it move around because it's dodging stormsI know because I had when navy arrives at destination set to pause and popup and I would sometimes suddenly get spammed with 12 messages of my navy moving around, but otherwise it will just stand still in one sea tile, the mission itself won't move it
>>2222869do you know what a coup d'etat is?
>>2222876laws?
>>2222836if you are playing optimally, yea make some vassals and fiefdoms10-20% control means its only 10% of a province for you
>>2222872>>2222862That's retarded, it's a civil war where they automatically lose because rebels automatically take their only location
So I got sucked into a new, much lower value, market than the one I was in previously and my trade income tanked. I'm a small country at the moment, so what do I do? Create my own market?
>>2222482>tag = FLO>from = 1390.1.1>to = 1410.1.1So if you form Tuscany you can't get it? I was wondering where the bank was since I'm in 1460 and it hadn't appeared.
I don't like how rebels are their own tag, it leads to shit like the "noble empire" being a great power
>>2221849>everyone is on my side holy narcissism
>>2222830>Build Bailiff>Set your dudes to increase control & assimilate pops>Eventually it gets cored and move onto the next provinceGenocide really is the only way to get decent control, since accepting cultures costs way too much.
>playing byz >eat every beylik whole to hasten TTD>eat Bulgaria too for good measure>five bajillion antagonism>every few years Serbia and Wallachia march their worthless peasants ar my cannons and arquebuses before I leave out and dissolve their coalition>then the Egyptians and some eastern Muslims do the same>it's been 50 years and I still get coalitioned on truce CD and have to beat them back Does this shit even decay at all?
>>2222883Maybe. I played a Florence -> Tuscany game and I had Tuscany before 1390 and I never got the Medici bank events despite earlier having gotten the first events from that chain (the ones related to Bardi and Peruzzi).
>>2222882request preferential access to your old one
>>2222882Ask your former market owner for market preference and deny market access to shitty market owner
>>2222884I've actually seen a nested revolter, a horde broke into a "true successors" rebel tag, then their burghers revolted. Somehow peaced out too.

>>2222904thanks lemoncake we love your videos
>>2222859Does bailiff provide control to it's adjacent provinces if you build roads from the bailiff?
>>2222906yes, it acts as a SOURCE of proximity. its like a mini mini capital
>>2222905SUBSCRIBE NIGGA
groBduitsland for now, just killed half of Europe for like 3 provinces
Why don't non-Europeans build artillery? Are they stupid?
>>2222222
>>2222906Yes, but it only seems to work with roads and it's really a miniscule amount in my case. I have 3 provinces connected by roads with the center one having a baliff. They have a proximity of 2% instead of 0%. In my experience it hasn't been worth the investment.
finally, infrastructure week
>>2222879Theres only a law about slave conversion, I have it on forced conversion and it even gives a buff to promotion for unemployed slaves. I closed the fucking RGO and nothing is happening

Why would you want to decrease trade goods mount when you up trade capacity for a trade?
>>2222924Theres no building, they are here from game start.
>>2222925make me
>>2222919I didn't full annex the Pope myself, but just taking the Rome state (Maritima?) seemed to end the Hussite wars situation. I released it as a vassal and it actually pays me a whole bunch of cash which is nice.Only took FOUR crusades against me before I decided fuck it I'll go for more than war reps + money this time, and got mil and food access to go beat the Pope's ass back to the middle ages where he belongs
remember to check your gov reforms every new age
>>2222914You build bailiffs on remote high value rural provinces. Think silver/gold mines.How do I get rid of these FUCKING stannary courts? I already genocided the c*rnish.
>>2222923>he didn't get a mod that removes hourly ticks
>>2222943>need a mod because ur too smooth brained to open up console
Can't annex my vassal even though I can click the button. 10 years have passed. What gives?
>>2222869Yes they can
>>2222939you cant until an event in the 1600s. also who cares about cornwall?
>>2222947you probably have no diplomats
It's literally an entire web of interlocking rivers surrounded by hills and forests.I can see why West Germany is such a rich area

>>2222919>Jan Huss died the year i conquered the papacyRest in peace you noble hero. forgot to screenshot but it put a smile on my face
>Bailiffs create control!>Build bailiff>No change in control in province whatsoever?
Tranny propaganda in the game
>>2222957There is a suggested export/import section under trades
>>2222962Wait until it's fully employed and it will increase control, unless you built it close to the capital
Im making 42/month as Polska in 1378 but some people make x10 that, how?
>>2222952I increased it, but still doesn't work
>>2222963queen regnants weren't a thing so queens often ruled as men.
>>2222963YWNBALM
How do I make one of my provinces shift over to my market? I dont control it, so I cant just destroy it.
>>2222962Bailiffs don't create control, are you retarded?Read what the building says it does.If you refuse to do that, it is a local source of proximity at value 20. So it sets the locations proximity to capital at 20. If it is already over 20 nothing happens.Proximity is flatly added to control max.
>>2222963how did you find this?
>>2222820Finally made the annoying portrait on the top left bearable.
irrigation should really give you food capacity instead of population capacity.villages should give you more food capacity too. and there should be no limit to how much pop growth you can get from food capacitymake pop maxxing feasible
>>2222972You have to increase market attraction/decrease their market attractionSo either go siege their market capital or make your market capital more attractive.
>>2222967Trade income. You can make hundreds of ducats if you commit to it.
>>2222967I build more and more shit but nothing is going up, added Libraries, Made books, fancy cloths, mined x10 salt, yet I keep hovering around just the base tax valueDoesn't matter what green color I click on, it keeps stopping at around 40ish.Does someone have a tldr on what 'green +s' are bait?
>>2222975release it
>>2222973>Proximity is flatly added to control max.its not flat it has its own scaling modifierand 20 prox turns into nothing in neighboring provinces without roads and good terrain
>>2222963https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prefection
>>2222976Nah it should simulate families and widows and shit so things like losing all the men in a village matters more in Christendom vs pagan shitholes
>>2222983More like perfection sister
>>2222977How do I see that? My home market has over 10x the market value and a lot less deficits than theirs. And they dont have enough food either, which is the problem. I dont want to ship food to their shitty market just to sustain my conquest.
>ask for cardinal seat - costs ~200 points>pope rejects>get refunded ~350 pointsCan only ask once per year but it gets you a free canonization.
>austrian emperor dies>rotating emperor>every elector support someone random>eventually just give it to austria again
>>2222991what does canonization do?
>>2222980I'm currently trudging through some CK3 lewd mods I have installed to see if I can port over some assets (and legs) and maybe make something releasable. Surprised there isn't a LL thread about this game yet, I'd rather not do this myself haha.
I was very pleased with myself for building a castle on a province that is red on the tactical map, and at the exit of a mountain pass. I figured it would defend me well from enemies getting into my country from that point. But in the next war, enemies just walked over the castle tile to the tile next to it (which is in the zone of control), sieged it, and had it flip all the surrounding provinces. So why build castles?
>>2222995gives a bunch of legitimacy based on the stats of who you are canonizing
>>2222992In my game the first thing Bohemia did was to pass "Figure head emperor" followed by "Rotating Emperorship" and "Unprotected free cities". Nigga really didn't like the HRE.
>>2222995It gives you prestige and legitimacy based on the skills and traits of the guy you're canonizing as a saint.
>>2223002every emperor seems to do that the first chance they get
Greenland is the Byzantium of EU5
>>2222999Classic paradox Zone of Control. The other phenomenon that I really enjoy is when I start to besiege a castle in enemy territory and their armies come back, but mine cant leave the siege because all surrouding tiles are in the castle's zone of control.
>>2223002>>2223007because they see the buttons and click them not caring about what they do. all ai international organizations are like this
>>2222978but what exactly is that vs just generically building whats green on your ROG/Building menu? as its still supply/demand ( x control) that seems like it defines everything
>sent the pretender rebel off to the teutonic orderlol, but he would probably be better off over there
Vassalage need some reworking. Everyone and their mother keep collecting small German minors as vassals, France, Milan, Poland, Denmark, Sweden, Hungary. Not to metion HRE insiders like Austria and Bohemia. Half of the HRE is someone's vassal. But that's not the problem itself. The issue is countries far away having lots of small vassals.
>>2223013build marketplaces and automate trade pretty much
I think demand unlawful territory should at least give you the option of recreating the state it was originally
I'll play as a Tusi and report back

>>2223016I have 15 markets
>>2223019That's how it's supposed to work but the game is bugged(?) and cores disappear as soon as the country is annexed, so it goes to the Emperor by default
playing habsburgs without ottomans to play off of is boring as shit

>>2223035Every 5 years these fucking faggots throw me into a civil war that lasts for 2 years. After the 3rd or 4th time I should be able to execute all noble families and give their responsibilities to the church or burghers.
Dont you want one giga market? Why ever make another unless you are aggressively expanding into someones turf
>>2223013Green RGO/buildings are just your tax base, which is influenced by your regional control and other things. If you want to game the economy, you need to make highly profitable goods avaliable in your market regarless of tax base and export them for trade income.>>2223016Trade automation sucks. It never imports a good from a cheap market to export to a profitable one, for example. And it doesnt help you with institutions either.
>>2223037tried it, doesnt do much since the modifier only works for the first 20 years of the game
Can I change my subjects' behavior in war? Fuckers keep getting stackwiped.

>>2223058can you bribe other cardinals?
>>2223047market access is a lot harder to spread than proximity, and directly impacts the value of goods produced/sold. below 70% its much harder to make money and below 30% you might aswell just delete the money instead of wasting it on building something. its more to manage of course, and can be very annoying when the resource layout is imbalanceddepends on your country/layout/future plans if more markets make sense for you or not.
>>2223026ok build more unless you're capped
I see Lubeck needs books. I make books and have a surplus. Wheres the button to sell my books to the Lubeck market? (Im the market right next to it)

How do I get the HRE emperor ship back as hussite bohemia? Seems like there's no way to force the imperial religion to change without being emperor yourself. The tooltip implies that it can be changed to any Christian religion, but I don't understand how you would be able to become emperor to change it unless you're still Catholic. Is there a way to bully the emperor into changing the law? Or will some event happen in the HRE to let non emperors petition for laws?
>>2223065Economy tab, goods, export button next to the good name. The "trade" tab are only suggestions, so it can be a bit misleading.

>>2222947what does subject actions > start annexation says in the regular diplo action menu?
so what do you do once you hit escape velocity with your income and reach hundreds of ducats a month? just max literally every RGO no matter how profitable? build every single bridge/wharf/dock/protected harbor/armory possible and have a standing army of 100k by 1500?
>>2223079>who the fuck IS Maria Universalisthe eu4 talented and ambitious daughter event
>>2223080Oh, but when that happens how is it possible to change it to hussite? Will I get some sort of CB that lets me bully the HRE? For now I'm gonna just religious war my way through the HRE to make Germany kneel to hussism

>>2223103I'm at 54 innovation currently and it's 1417.
>>2223100it also involved things like shifts in rain and weather patterns that the people living the areas had to adapt to.
>>222310320 Inno is pretty easy in the early 1300s.
It's pretty lame that character's clothing doesn't change troughout the eras. 1780 European monarchs wearing (non-ironically unlike in painted portraits) full plate armor and late medieval bowl cuts ruins the immersion.

>>2223133Mother fucker just play japan already
What is to be done about FRANCE, the elephant in the room? They have more troops by 1500 than every other european coutry combined probably. Coallitions you may say, but coallitions against Christian states by Christian states weren't really a frequent thing in medieval Europe, only later in the modern period first against the Habsburgs and then France. France jobbed a lot historically before the battle of Rocroi. How are they going to replicate that historical inneficiency with the AI?
>>2223146>>2223150you mean daimyo or ashikagaalso any difference between daimyos and southern/northern courts?
>>2223148this game is what I was hoping to experience when victoria 3 came out. vic3 can fuck off forever
>>2223152Well france built europe, they were its powerhouse for over a thousand years. They are merely being historically accurate in their dominance.
>>2223153emperor
>>2223149You need to select your army into the province your enemy has a building and click the raid button in the army interface. That gives you 20% war score. It gives you diminishing results, so quick wars are your best bet. It's really easy to snowball in the bbc period, but you will likely cap your antagonism with the other daimyos once the Sengoku Jidai begins.
Im so glad i made it to 28 without falling for the woman meme or the grindlife meme or the crime meme and instead get to enjoy the greatest grand strategy game of all time while its still hot with all of my absolute bros here on 4chanIncels wonAutists wonSimulation chads wonChuds wonHype bros wonPreorder patricians wonStrategy gamers wonThank you Johan!
>>2223157who is the emperor?jimyoin or daikakuji?
i gotta set more frequent auto savesor maybe get more ram so it doesn't crash
>>2223153Daimyo or the Emperor. The Ashikaga Shoguns are losers. Do beware that the mechanics of the Southern Court Emperor are currently broken, as the clans won't actually give you aid, so it is a very challenging beginning with an early war against the Shogun. You need to build an extra regiment as soon as possible, kite the shogun into a mountain in winter and kill the northern court emperor.
>>2223156France was the great power of Europe up to the 1700s, yes, but they never actually managed to conquer anything substantial beyond the Rhine, the Channel or the Pyrenees. In my run they are steamrolling the fucking 150k troop Luxembourg emperor and his alliance, having conquered half of England and Aragon already.
>>2223152>but coallitions against Christian states by Christian states weren't really a frequent thing in medieval EuropeFrance was involved in a ton of them during the Italian Wars. But the answer to that question is buffing Burgundy. Burgundy is way too weak for the period. The 14th century is their golden age, those motherfuckers were so rich that they had plate armor made of pure gold.
>>222316815 century was Burgundy's golden age. For much of the 14th century they were still loyal vassals to the French king who was a close relative.
second crash in 40 hoursits overshit game
>>2223168Burgundy really should've been modeled on release. They have plenty of other instances of specific events occuring in the game. It feels like they thought it'd upset new players or something so they're saving it for later.
Does tolerated or accepted status affect culture assimilation rate?
>>2223165>but they never actually managed to conquer anything substantial beyond the RhineNigger, by the turn of the 15th century they de facto controlled most of northern italy and were very influential among the rhenish polities. Their influence in the HRE only declined due to the combined force of Spain and Austria in their primes, plus Perfidious Albion.
After years of playing EU4 I have the habit of skipping every event and clicking on the better option without reading anything. I thought it would be different after this game came out but I can't bring myself to read anything, I just pick the btter number, doesn't help that so many events are straight from EU3/4. I wish I could roleplay properly.
>>2223058>>2223093>>2223097I feel like the new fr*nch king is mocking us
>>2223173Since stability works different now and the comet sighted event is kinda negligible, I think they should change it so it crashes your game instead
>>2223152they need more antagonismhistorically france was ganged up by everyone to contain thembut this will probably make france unfun to play, paradox need to find balance somehow
>>2223181its after i end the war and take over the province crashed again
>>2223177I click any event with the historical choice icon. Apart from that I choose better stats.
Guys how do I become a prince elector? I'm trying to form Saxony as Thuringia

>>2223198You need to research the advance with the professional armies institution. Before that, you only get wharfs and villages.
My retarded new subject of sevilla made the capital be the fucking beeswax rural province, not the city sevilla, is there any way to change it?
>>2223198>>2223201Protip: don't bother building fishing villages for sailors. I tried and it was horrible, just wait for docks.
14442nd run in a row turks are a disappointment and horde does not collapse, hope johan fixes that soon
>>2223201>>2223208thank you sailoranon
How do you end the Nanbokucho period as the ashikaga shogunate?
>>2223191I assume if you get a PU where you're the senior partner over an elector that will also work
>>2223176France lost to just Aragon in Italy, long before the Habsburg rivalry.
>>2223209What map mod/settings?
>>2223208>don't bother building fishing villages for sailorsIt works for me. I have the largest navy on the known world just off of them.
>>2222752slaves are incredible because they let you move pops around on demand. When a market trades the slave good, they are also dealing in pops. i.e. trade slaves from your areas with too many to underpopulated areas. Make cash off the trade, and make cash off the newly useful rgos.
>>2223209The problem is that the timurids never raze the middle eastern mongol polities to the ground. And the GH is just too stable, yeah.
i dont understand who counts as the occupying side in a siege, whoever had the biggest army?good thing all my allies are sops, otherwise i would be giving away provinces to the people who didnt do anything
>>2223218Nigga did you build 300 fishing villages?
>>2223210>>2223208fishing villages do workyou need to subsidize them and make sure they have the resources to workits retardeded
>>2223209My conclusion after doing some observing is that the AI is pretty aggressive but also very scaredCase in point: Castille will attack Portugal on cooldown because they're weak, but they'll go an entire campaign without fighting Morocco once because they have a big army, even though they could easily nab their Iberian holdings.The steppes needs unique conquest mechanics like EU3 had (but much better, hopefully). Truthfully the are has never been represented well in any EU game.
>>2223217Xorme GFX mods on workshop + full 3d map / no paper map
>>2223224Closer to 500, I think. And they are all subsidized.
>>2223223In the siege menu there is a button to take over occupation if your army is larger, the AI usually presses it.
>>2223203https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jW8OOK8dXng
>>2223226They do work, but you end up paying massively for very little sailor gain. Compared to one dock giving you 16 a month, you're better off just waiting for them.
>>2223230and i cannot do anything against it?
Can I cheese civil wars to move my capital? I cant do it manually because NO BOOKS
its the guy
>>2223233In many cases it's not worth it to wait for docks because maritime presence is a very strong modifier.
>>2223227>The steppes needs unique conquest mechanics like EU3 had (but much better, hopefully). Truthfully the are has never been represented well in any EU game.If you mean "the golden horde never collapses" it's because they're an army based country, but it's very hard to actually stackwipe, because for some reason military casualties are very low and there's no pursuit phase against a retreating army, which is where now casualties should come from
>>2223238Why is he glowing
>>2223238its him, the vstGOD
What happens if you lose all your provinces as an army based country? I tried it out using the console but it was bugged (my army was exiled forever), but maybe it's because I was tag switching.
>>2223244He's polish
>>2223238Here's the English pronunciation of his name if anyone is wondering:Bjeuchyshchykievich
>>2223251Or B'ich for short
>>2223251It's fun to say but it took me quite a few repeats to even approximate saying it.
>>2223241Yeah maybe if you're Japan and can afford to subsidize 500 fishing villages.
>>2223251>here's the english pronounciation>posts a random string of letters in a non-phonetic alphabet
>>2223243>because for some reason military casualties are very low and there's no pursuit phase against a retreating armyThe pursuit phase is clicking "chase army" in the tooltip.
which one is better?
>>2223251>bee--jee-eh-uh-cheesh-chee-kee-eevichThe polish language should be abolished.
>>2223262Both are morally wrong choices, as slavery is wrong.
>>2223262The only modifier that really matters is spiritualist/humanist, clergy estate satisfaction and maybe slave promotion.I always go forced conversion, but I usually don't keep enough slaves to notice a difference
did a tierlist on the soundtrack instead of playing the game
>>2223262Slave religion for the humanist progress. Always go for the woke values since they're the best
>>2223258Or Italy. Or Indonesia. Or the Ottomans. Or Portugal if you have the money (early light ships are op).
>>2223270Even in Victoria 3, Chud values are quite competitive now. I feel like this, much more Chuddier game, may make them even stronger.
>>2223272I mean if you're Italy you could just wait since you're gonna get professional armies real quick anyways.
>>2223196there is something else in this, its 100% guaranteed in the save i've made but if i wait for a month it works, everything is fine. Anyway its not my job to test this shit, i only need to take over one more neighbor and i wont be fighting anyone for the next 150 year.
>>2223203>
pirate niggas
I kinda wish you could see profit graphs of your current trades so you can see if it's going down in profit.
>ai vassal gets a rebellion>i intervene, but don't get a war leadership >ai vassal accepts peace with some stupid termsjohan please
>>2223274Not if you are a merchant republic. You need ME as soon as possible and you will probably end up spamming docks AND fishing villages anyways.
If you have at least 1 loan you can get this parliament issueMeans you can mint at max for a few months
>>2223277Is there a way to go Pirate outside of switching to one of the preset tags?
>>2223283>Means you can mint at max for a few monthsBut is that more money than 50% of a loan + interest?
the entire combat system needs a complete overhaul
>>2223283>better than the inflation reduction parliament issue at reducing inflation>also gives you money for free
>>2223286For me loan was 1137, but over 6 months I would get 2718 from additional minting
>>2223268Where's the tierlist for starting countries?
>>2223293the soundtrack is more important than the actual game
I took the week off and I've done nothing but play this game since the moment it released. After so many disappointing releases in the last few months this one was a blast. It's been a pleasure shitposting with you friends, but tomorrow work starts again.
>>2223286A lot more, especially when it reduces the interest on your loan.The problem is it is extremely rare
Started as Thomond, slowly blobled up north and formed Connacht. England declared for tributary and I surrendered, then fast forward 40 years until I hit critical mass and could beat The Pale.I'm still a trib and trying to figure out how I'm gonna resist the eternal anglo now.
>>2223301The French might support your independence.
>>2223305Just allied with scotland/alba. They've got 26k troops somehow while I only got 3
>>2223312Have you been focusing on pop growth/mil buildings?
france is too op in the hundred years war right nowthey need to add the historical event in 1341 where the duchy of brittany revolts and england can take them as a vassal
>play morocco>declare war on west african shitholes>die from no food attritionwhat do
>>2223314Kinda, I only just now capture the rest of the island while I only have 1/3rd actually cored. I'm gonna annex all my vassals then release some more afterwards. Gonne try and hit 1M pops to become a kingdom.
>>2223096it doesnt seem to register shift clicking>>2223094go on an old building the expand button is replaced with an upgrade button
>go bankrupt once>playthrough over
>>2223301submit yourself to england as watch the rest of the game as an observer like a good little irishman
yeah japan is shit
I really wish they made the UI easier to look across markets and see price comparisons of markets.I'm trying to decide what workshops to build to see if it's profitable.
>>2223325
>>2223324Maybe you're just shit?
>>2223324>europa universalis>plays non european nation
How do you change parliament type?
>>2223331Okay never mind, it's a tiny fucking button next to the Call Parliament button, that I didn't even know was clickable. What the fuck mane.
>>2223330Many such cases. Very alarming.
>>2223324Unironic skill issue
im scared
I think the estate revolts cause a lot of issues. They seem to be super buggy and fuck up events.
>>2223340Don't worry, it's just a number.
>>2223340>Kyiv
The plague is wrecking my shit. I only just the stability positive by letting people blame minorities for the plague.
This is one of those games where you don't need to be constantly clicking and doing shit right?
>>2223348depends how much automation you have on but no you can just speed 5 until something happens while you spend your gold on economy
Is there a releasable aromanian tag?
>>2223348You can try observer mode.Might be more your speed idk
what should be the fate of the orthobros?
>>2223232>>2223276Kek.And I'm dead.After the war the plague hit and Castille declared on me and now I have only 700 levies because of the plague destruction.I can't even propose the PU because the AI won't take it because of high Antagonism, so they will just carve me out like in my other playthrough.Almost giving up on Portugal for another country, I can't ally anyone besides Aragon and we both just get destroyed by Castille.
>>2223347Well think of it like this, everyone else gets fucked by it too.
>>2223324It's buggy, boring, and retarded.
>>2223359didn't they historically keep it?
how do I clear my research queue aside from going through this piece of shit and right clicking everything
>>2223361What historically kept Portugal independent? It should be modeled.
>>2223370If you cancel the first one in the tree it cancels everything that comes after.
>>2223348I'm constantly clicking to replace cabinet members because everyone is dying at 50
peace peace peace
>>2223371Alliance to England and both iberan nations hated muslims more than each other
mamluks are giganigga op and just randomly declare war on you with 30k stacks if you are ottomans and have any province in eastern anatolia
>>2223378PEACE THROUGH POWER
>>2223371Going by EU5 terms, historically Portugal became the minor partner in a PU with Spain, then revolted and had the English bailed them out
No CB wars seem kinda bad.
>>2223371Mostly because Spain was busy with sth else or the Frogs and Eternal Anglos interfered. This prompted Portugal to think they were some kind of superhuman resisting Spain for years though.
uhhh am i supposed to only be able to spread chili during the colombian exchange?what unlocks new goods for my provinces?
how do you unify a culture group?also I saw a cabinet action to form a new primary culture, what's that about?
GRANADA HAS FALLEN.
>>2221902Exact same thing happened in my Ottomans game. What obsession does Poland have with this province? Why does the AI always expand into the same areas?
>>2223387It's more like warfare in general has a high cost, but if you're small you probably need to get to it sooner rather than later. Nations like Bohemia or Castille can spend a long time just booming their economy if you want, and it's not bad to let the AI build up stuff you'll be conquering later anyway.
>>2223102yes and population capacity and being a rural settlement
>>2223371Being really friendly with Castille. There was one war between them that Portugal won with english aid, but they had good relations through most of history.
>>2223392ai cant comprehend that
colonization went wrong
>>2221377>bang bang bang
The game would be better without parliaments, or at least with a less gimmicky estate interaction mechanic
>>2223392billions must pae
>>2223409Parliaments for specific policies with a shorter timer (maybe 6 months to a year) which actually represent powers of parliament (i.e. declaring war rather than fabricating claims) would make the game way, way better
i got memed by the icepathfinding using iced over lakes by default is crazy
DEUS VULTmemeluks have seen the light of god, sunni middle east is no more
>>2223413I feel like you could massively meme a larger army by picking a losing battle over thin ice
>>2223412Nah they shouldnt be called Parliaments
>>2223418Well, yeah, that too.Maybe conventions or something
>>2223416>300k men died on both sides just for some shitty land cause the bible said soJesus religion is a mistake
>>2223392So I've been thinking, what's stopping me from just raising as many levies as possible and just going and taking Navarre, Aragon and bit of Morocco? I know everything is going to shit but they'e pretty small and I only want tat small bit of Morocco. It should be easy in theory right? basically wage war, recover for bit, wage war, recover for a bit then fix all the other issues when I got a sizeable piece of land.
>>2223422*tips*
why isn't information about the new world spreading to me already it's 1638
the game would be better with more parliaments, national parliaments, regional parliaments, provincial parliaments, city and town councils, village councils, noble diets, peasant veches, burgher assemblies, clerical synods, guild conferences, fishermen’s councils, shepherd midnight moots, the estates general, the lesser estates general, the military officer corps council, parish councils, deanery councils, diocesan councils, plus the hanseatic merchant tribunal, the market price negotiation diet, the supreme pan-regional inter-cultural multi-national all-realm deliberation assembly, the ummah, the imperial divan, the majlis al shura, the ulama council, qadi courts, zemsky sobor, boyar duma, cossack rada, kurultai, pashtun jirga, sangha assembly, mandala royal courts, bakufu councils, han domain councils, roju senior councils, imperial censorate, nine ministries council, etc
>>2223422[editorial note] 300k arabs died versus 60k brave crusaders defending christendom
please tell me that I will be able to reinstate these privileges once court and country ends
>>2223413The act you can lose armies/people to falling through ice is pretty cool. Also that art looks really good too.
You know the paraKEK community has become infested with SJW’s, libtards, trannies, and brown people when the game has been out for nearly a week and I’ve see nary a single PreuBia gloriums formed or a groB Germaniums…
>>2223434Being a chud isn't cool anymore now that Filipinx seamonkeys are larping as white nationalists online
>>2223431Or they could both do sth else more productive rather than killing each others
>>2223412No I don’t want to click that shit every six months and I don’t want to get cucked out of war because the nobles are mad I made a shoelace factory instead of a peasant torture center.
Do NOT move your capital to Edirne as Ottomans, it literally bankrupts you because of the retarded proximity mechanic. It also explains why AI Ottomans stagnate so hard after taking few provinces
‘36You are a chud for saying that doe
>>2223422To be fair, the mamluks were evil.
>>2223439>He didn't take Constantinople
>>2223434Forming Prussia takes too long in this game. I'm not even sure the events for it are there yet.
>>2223439Its doable. You just need to integrate Gallipolli ASAP and migrate turks into the Thrace area. But Busra is better until you can get some 40ish ships, yeah.

>>2223449In my game the Byzzies destroyed all their forts I guess because they didn't have a single fort in their land. Now it's up to TVRISH BVLLS to rebuild the Theodosian walls that the Gayreeks foolishly destroyed for cash
>>2223145really? they just let you go or something?
anatolia is kind of shaped like a micropenis with gigantic, tumorous ballsis that really where turks live?
>>2223438>REEEEEE I DON'T WANT ANYTHING TO INTERUPT MY MAP PAINTING REEEEEEEEYour existence is unironically ruining the game holy fuck the next time you look in a mirror I want you to feel the disgust that I feel when I read thisHaving literally any mechanism to check the expansion of the player and actually represent strategic tradeoffs is a fucking good thing.

>>2223483I did. The only listed expense is -0.09 for my buildings. The game just wants me to go bankrupt.>>2223484Yeah but they also get the ability to research colonization right off the bat which is nice although a bit ridiculous.
dubs and i nocb naples
>Livonian order can't use the sponsor military order mechanic as a vassal of TeutonsThat's so fucking retarded, what a waste of time this has beenGoddamnit
So what's the verdict? Is there anything game breakingly retarded? Can the AI handle forming Spain or Great Britain? I don't want to pay full price for this shit if the AI doesn't even do anything all game
>>2223480you have to research taxation to get that slidersome goofy unfinished tribal thingit's why all the tribal countries are perma bankrupt
>>2221377how the fuck do roads work. none of my places in my road network far from the capital get proximity, and when i select a road from their to the capital it looks like it will go through all my other roads anyway but costs like 600 gold??!?!?!?

Culture conversion needs to be nerfed. Greeks literally don’t exist 100 years into the game. By the end of the game the world is even less diverse than EU4 with its mana conversion.
>muscovy kingdom tier>kiev duchy tierpiggy sisters... our response?
why the pope ban empires
>>2223519Game needs homelands like Vicky 3. It doesn’t have to be as static though. If a culture gets buck broken enough (falls below a certain population) those homelands should be able to disappear.

Does anyone here actually play with manual trade? Is it actually fun? I turned it off and never turned it back on. The AI is currently making 15 different trades. I'm not sure I could keep track of all that in my head. And also how often would I need to re-set the trades? Is once a month ok? Every time I think of turning it back onto manual it just feels like a massive headache so I dont but I have everything else set to manual and I'm having a good time
I fucking have zero courtiers left as a republic, what the fuck can I do besides take the parliament agenda to introduce someone?

>>2223532I dont know man. I've been looking for a way of creating a judean conspiracy but they just gave us too few jews in this game. The entirety of Spain has less than 50k jews. I think the best strategy is either italian jews in Emilia Romana or in the fertile crescent. Neither are ashkenazi.

okay playing north american natives the game seems bugged as shiti suddenly receive territories for no reason, game is crashing regularly...i admit, colonizing when you have a relatively small population by transferring them through council is NOT fun, especially when each area includes ~8 provinces and the pops move in to them randomly, so you can easily relocate all your population without achieving anything.
