>>2279669Got worse for me because proximity reduction was slashed in many areas.It might be better overall, but it's harder to minmax.
>>2279727VGH... WHAT COVLD HAVE BEEN...
>>2279704Britainbros... not like this...France was at war with Britain but since Britain's mainland posessions were revolting France was unable to take any of them.Quite unfortunate that you can't just attack the rebels as a 3rd party.
how do you even achieve that number, i've already collected just about every crown power modifier at this point
maxed capital economy so hard as byzantium they had to call it /biz/antium
what the heck does VGH mean
>>2279731It deserved to collapse. Fugly fucking borders
Where should I build Bailiffs? A few provinces away from my capital spreading outwards or can I build one in the middle of nowhere for some control?>readI tried but my head hurty sorry..
>>2279740nowhere
>>2279734Remove estate privileges
>>2279737novus pederasta
>>2279732Remember when England nearly converted to Islam centuries earlier than they did historically just to get military support?
>>2279731can I get a QRD on the Ghassanidsits a Christianized Bedouin tribe?
>>2279740>Where should I build Bailiffs?Absolutely nowhere. Bailiffs are only good very early on, which is coincidentally the same time period you are doing your best to wrestle power away from the nobility.
>>2279744but i've been told i should give them away freely...
>>2279740everywhere
>>2279753you can always give them back later
>>2279722
>>2279740>>2279743>>2279749not on gold and silver mines?
love when my estates ask for some shit like "destroy toll castles" to support me in parliament
>>2279740A 0 proximity province with an extremely valuable trade good like gold/silver, upstream of cities with 0 control can sometimes be worth it too if the city is well built already.
>trying out that anons strategy of just ONLY being Great Britain>it's actually comfier>don't have to worry about fighting fr*nchoids on mainland europe>can just whack a mole any small amount they land on my territory>can freely murder the sc*ttish since france cant actually land enough troops to help themcozy...
>>2279761that's the beauty of it, the estates hate each other too
>>2279748Quick rundown on them:>Lakhmids bow to the Ghassanids>In contact with Constantinople>Rumoured to possess sufi mystic abilities>Patrolled Bedouin raiders with an iron fist>Visited churches all over the Orthodox world>Direct descendants of Yemeni ruling nobility>Will RETVRN to the Levant in 2030 (Ghassanipolis will rise where Tel Aviv stands today)
>>2279628>>2279656In what possible sense was Zimbabwe not a state?>>2279649Bantus have been in South Africa since at least the 7th century.Why is /vst/ so willfully ignorant of basic facts about African history? It's not hard to find this information.
>>2279766Yes, nobody but nobles love toll castles.
>>2279764>scotts destroyed all their forts on my borderseven comfier now
>>2279732It's 1793 and the first Crusade in centuries has been called to liberate Italy.
>>2279768>Will RETVRN to the Levant in 2030 (Ghassanipolis will rise where Tel Aviv stands today)INSHAALLAH!

Kiev
>>2279780Kyiev
>>2279779Spend literally 5 minutes reading about medieval Zimbabwe. What are you afraid of?
>>2279780*Kiof, the capital city of Ucranie
>>2279772It bothers me so much that Britain maintains colonies that are completely landlocked and surrounded by hostile nations.
>>2279784Somehow more delusional than hyperborea fanfiction
>>2279778Kot bussy?
>>2279776they were an Arabic tribe so they probably still called God Allah, anon...actually, can someone fact check me on this?
>>2279769South Africa was literally empty before the Dutch showed up
>>2279788countries should probably embargo each other more often
>>2279784Ignore /pol/ bait
>>2279791Probably not that exact word (different language and all) but the general idea yesEven today Lebanese Christians use "Allah"
>>2279731alright, i will play themhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uwkqnaqRW-c
>>2279788speaking of things that bother meJalayirid Horde still exists in 1800.
>>2279769>Bantus have been in South Africa since at least the 7th century.while you are correct, I'd like to elaborate on what that other anon said because I think it helps give context to his statement. what that other anon is talking about is that the general majority of the population of south africa today is neither descended from those original Bantu tribes nor the indigenous Khoi/San peoples, they were labor brought in by the British in the 19th and 20th centuries from further north. Does that really matter? Well it's up to your personal thoughts on the issue
>country of nearly 4 million>24 nobodys bitching about something>this is somehow a rebelion
>>2279731If it had been Komnenos and not Palaiologos at the end they could likely have held on for another century or more.
is it possible to play in ireland or do you just get cucked and unable to fight the pale because of england
>>2279801>they were labor brought in by the British in the 19th and 20thany source on this? it seems pretty spectacular, and why would the apartheid government create those larp kingdoms for southern colonists
>>2279748Yes>>2279768Fucking BASED
>>2279802>country of 4 million>24 dukes rise up in rebellion>they take 1-2 million of the population with themruh roh anon
Just TOTALLY OBLITERATED the Ottoman army as RHODVS
>>2279811it's 24 soldiers
>>2279807https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HiyAP1SLqvQ
>>2279814>its just 24 soldiers
>>2279802>Literacy ticks one(1) single percent higher than some arbitrary number a dev typed in without even thinking about it>700 laborers in the small Northumbrian town of Poopingham suddenly get so angry about not having cloves that they decide it's time for open revolt>Nevermind that their country is at peace>And at 100% Stability>And the government is seen as 100% Legitimate>And the crown holds nearly 70% of estate power>And the country is fully Centralized>And the government is fully Absolutist>And peasants have 59% Satisfaction>And there is a professional army of 180k regulars stationed less than a week's march away>"We have no cloves, millions must die"Why the fuck am I developing my literacy if it just makes my citizens even more retarded
>>2279732This would be based if islam wasn't Zutted.
>>2279815anon this guy is actively losing against england right now
>>2279823exactly
>>2279819>no clovesyou don't get it anonno cloves means NO FUCKING EGGNOG and that's worth revolting over
>japan has all the latest institutions faster than most of europe
was he right?
>>2279819They stop bothering about anything and just throw a dice to see if they revolt in age of revolutions
>>2279827Realistic
>>2279827this is historical actually, a 200-year technology gap caused by closed borders being the only exception and even then they caught up again in about 30 yearsVGH... fucking based Nippvn...
>>2279718>EU5 video on Youtube>INSANE! [random OPM] IS SECRETLY OVERPOWERED? FROM COUNTY TO EMPIRE!>Ironman mode is off>Random cuts that skip ahead 5-10 years "for viewability">Country stats like stability recovers mysteriously fast>Tech always ahead even though sometimes it's visible that no research is happening in the upper right corner
>>2279828>I played this game for 2 hours>Heres my reviewGO KILL YOURSELF how about
>>2279837funny post... let's see this video anon is referencing
ZIGGER BROS GET DOWN
>>2279819My burghers ask me for guild privileges every 10 years and every time I dont give it to them they act like it's their first time being rejected and piss and shit and fardd and whine
>>2279828yes, unironically. I'm a perfectionist who has to micromanage everything but it's impossible with this many fucking locations. After some time I feel like I want to restart the campaign. Also you pretty much have to automate trade and I hate that.
>>2279837Theres a reason cheat mods are the most popular mods
>>2279828this game isnt for himits for me
>>2279840Funny? Funny how?
>>2279799Another interesting situation where England revolted, but since Northumberland is disloyal they didn't join the fight against the rebels.So now the Nobles can't march up to Scotland and Britain presumably can't bring up a landing strong enough to fight the rebels.Britain is also at war with Bohemia & Morocco
>>2279837>Ironman mode is offNot like it would even matter since you can cheat in ironman
>>2279734it's very obvious that you need to castrate your burgers
>>2279835this is why japan > china, they have the humility to catch up when they are outpaced.
tell me about the canary islanders, anonwhere did they come from?
>>2279828Half of it is "I have the attention span of a goldfish", but I agree with the complaints on automation and number of provinces. At a certain point in the game, you MUST turn on automation for actions like trade, subsidizing, production methods, closing/opening buildings, etc. It's a strange game design where, the further you get into the game, the less the player actually does and the more your state is running by itself as the alternative is simply not feasible to manage.
I always go full free subjects becaue it feels good to be good just like that
>>2279861they do it without copying too, while chinks are culturally devoted to cheating
>>2279753Someone lied to you,
>>2279740It's mostly useful if you are avoiding vassals due to centralizationmaxxing, and you end up taking a low control high pop rural location with a lot of rgos or buildings. These devalue your goods pretty badly because aren't taxing them but it's still being added to your market, so the bailiff is worth it to try to minimize the damage.
>>2279835They had Dutch studies the entire 200 year period.
>>2279770Toll castles aren't that bad.
>>2279865>simply not feasible to manage.This is realistic though, they just need provincial governours and corruption mechanics.
>>2279873I can't think of a worse fate.
>>2279868>goodI smell cultural biasnow they are 'free' to be homeless and without any form of social contract to join the urban poor in filth and squalorserfdom isn't 'bad', and neither are free subjects 'good'
>>2279854The collapse of the British Empire has been a disaster for the borders in Europe.
sheesh thats a rough nerffrom this
Maybe it's a mod for you guys but mine does not show how the number is made up. Also why the fuck does Ming declare war on me AGAIN even though my relations were +120. Ming got a heresy CB and 2 seconds later declared on me. Both of our religions are part of Buddhism ;_; Does the war immediately end if I switch me religion? The bonus Sanjiao gets (10% literacy) seems alot better than my 5% plus access to the karma system.
>>2279882to this
>>2279879I think serf starved quote a lot, probably more since they couldn't move for better work or legally tell their landlords to go suck it
>>2279882They gotta relax with the fucking additively stacking modifiers....
>>2279886вce кoнчeнo
>>2279882>>2279886did you copy this from reddit or did you post it there too? you gotta kill yourself if it's the latter
>>2279874they are still badsome estate buildings actually give you some benefits, like market fares
>>2279891its literally my own game you fagi only post here
>>2279879silence RusNig.
>fagreddit coded
(((they))) don't want you to know about the georgian and bohemian enclaves in russia
>>2279881the rest of Europe are taking turns fucking the British.
>>2279869truth nuke, people like to think japs and gooks have the same architecture style because it came from chinks but it's false
kek why does this game have mpreg
>>2279903Most chink architecture came from japan after tang anyway
>>2279881Okay they *need* to find a way to push the ai to "correct" it's borders. There's no reason states as large as France or Hungary shouldn't be consolidating their land and look like HRE minors.
>>2279903what's the actual truth? asking out of curiosity
>>2279901ah yeah, the hungarian colony of finland, snow mongols reunited with their brothers
>>2279905and there's no proof of tang ever being a real thing. heck we can't even be sure if ming was real.
>>2279904shameless catering to a certain audience...
>>2279904He's a god. How can you mpreg a god? What a grand and intoxicating event.
>>22799136 million negative Chinese steam reviews are about to nuke your game (steamGODS still filter them by default though)
>>2279908everything they have 'ancient' was built recently. same goes for the japs who got flattened but they rebuilt them to their original specifications. the chinks however fake and copy everything so you know what they did.
>>2279916Where do I find a fujoshi girl that plays ee you five?
>>2279913You're shitposting but the CCP keeps Chinese historical documents locked up tighter than even the USSR did (which is how they can conjure up historical claims to whatever they want)They've also been caught faking shit like the terracotta statues. So unironically with how the Cultural Revolution obliterated historical Chinese relics and buildings and how prestige-starved the CCP is it is likely that a significant amount of "common knowledge" of Chinese history is fake
>>2279906Sorry chud, this is a sandbox game.
>>227981420 good men are enough to take down an army
>>2279807you need to become a tributary or it is impossible
>>2279869>while chinks are culturally devoted to cheating>society with a religion devoted to taking exams for meritocratic purposes>epidemic of cheatingconfucious's remains are going burrow through the earth and fly to beijing with the amount of spinning he's doing.
>>2279927https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_V%C3%ADtkov_HillUnironically true
prestige mana isn't in real life bro
>>2279902vgh.... this is peak Britain....
>>2279936knowing my french knights they were probably trying to charge straight into the walls of the castle
>>2279941why didn't they make rebellions some shade of the tag they revolted from?
>>2279943Would make them look too similar to vassals is my guess.
Playing in Asia, but outside China and as my borders are starting to encroach on the ruins of the Yuan dynasty, I'm considering going for the mandate of heaven. But I don't know how I get access to those CBs and mechanics. Is it a certain culture I need to switch to that opens it, a certain religion I need to convert to, or something else?
>>2279936>put a cart on a slightly elevated ground>this somehow revolutionised warfarePretty sure everyone was just plasterd the whole time back then
>>2279947>try to take over china>ruling culture gets CHINK'dDon't do it!
>>2279947Don't you need your capital in the China region?
>>2279947>anon walking into the chinking like a rat approaching a trap
>>2279924not shitposting, what you said is precisely why we can't trust their history anymore than what we know about medieval zimbabwe. even the taiwanese teach their kids fake chink history.
>>2279722i had sex with it
>>2279913>and there's no proof of tang ever being a real thing.that sounds unlikely
>>2279941Absolutely disgustingI dont evn know why they talked about fixing bordergore in the changelog
>>2279974Show me the bones, you can't.
>>2279945This is a moot point when nations you are at war with have a red outline.
>Migrate across the channel>Try to start a revolution to join the nation you leftBloody English!
>>2279943probably to make it really obvious when there's a rebellion happening to your neighbors
>>2279941The British Civil War began in 1797 and heralded the end of the Empire. Her colonies and Ireland broke away while the European powers took turns carving pieces off her continental possessions.To this day the British isles are still divided with the British nobility retaining control over England and the Royal Family holding out in their ever shrinking Scottish possessions.The PLC and Castille maintain a neutral buffer zone between the two warring sides, ensuring that true peace can never be attained and Britain will no longer be able to disturb the peace on the continent.
>>2279977Of course not, the Tang ate all the people in successive decisive victories and even cracked the bomes for marrow and made them into fertilizer.
>>2279990if it goes to long they should just de facto become an independent state.
>>2279990ABSOLUTE KINO.
>>2279995Yeah, or trigger a "compromise" ending that forces half of their demands on the nation they revolted from.
>>2279869japan did copy a lot early on but they grew out of it eventually
>>2279990Vgh... this is what Perfidiovs Albion deserves...
>>2280002purchasing information is different from stealing information
>>2280002They invited people from the west to teach them.
>>2280008Anon...
>>2279990And so ends my obs game on the new patch.It was interesting to see an "everything always happens" game, but I'm starting to think the "nothing ever happens" bros were on the right side of history.
>opm village vassal seperate peaced for land
>>2280014The Bois are back in town!
>>2280010japan bought machines and blueprints from the west and studied them. i've been to the museums where they still have some of those old distilling machines or cloth making machines from europe. the chinks however, when we ban them from buying gpus, they just steal them.
>>2280014I wish the full map screenshot included country names.
>>2280020>the chinks however, when we ban them from buying gpus, they just steal them.How do you think silk and tea began to be produced by Europeans? We smuggled both of them out of China.
>>2280014did andorra survive?
Inside me are two wolvesOne is an autistic minmaxxer who needs to eke out every last dreg of extra benefit from every law, building, and interactionThe other one is an autistic roleplayer who agonizes over what choice would fit the decision in-universeBoth of them are retards
why doesn't the game have a timelapse function like in eu4?
>>2280027that'll be $19.99+tip
>>2280024europeans stole silkworms so they could make their own silkchinese steal GPUs so they DON'T have to make their own
1.0.8 was a mistake
but i don't want to play on .0.8 when .0.10 exists ~___~
>>2280025No
i want to make celtica, who is easy?
>>2280033tragic...
>annexation cost reduction now INCREASES dip annex costhow do you fuck this up?
>>2280038this is actually really easy to doinsert a minus sign in the wrong spot and it inverses
VGH
market villages now give 0.5 market access and 10 burghers, huhalso apparently if you declare war on a pop based country and take their pops you can own tribesmen pops in other countries
it's funny I remember the dev diaries talking a lot about international organizations but so far they're all extremely underwhelming
burghers more likevghers
With every new patch my buyers remorse gets stronger and strongerIt just keeps getting worse and breaks more things than it's supposed to fix
if you buy a paradox game on release you got no right to complain desu
>>2280054My only consolation is that eventually they'll stop and then mods can actually make the game fun again
>>2280032MY KINGDOM FOR A BETA PATCH (still won't buy the game though)
>>2280054just retvrn to tradition
>>2280054mods will fix it
When is Johan doing actual bugfixes instead of sucking up to reddit?
>assault fort>lose literally every single man in the armyhate that there isnt even a button to cancel the assault
>>2280064never. johan is extremely insecure and cares more about pleasing the people he interact with online than doing what'll fix the game
>>2280067Yeah that's why you always want to savescum forts
When are we getting an even higher cultural classification in-game?
>>2280064Does reddit even eat it up? I'm only looking at Paradox forums and on there most people hate the latest changes
>>2280067>units that lose half are considered to be obliterated>keep attacking until everybody diesAre they Chinese?
>>2280072leddit is sandboxmaxxing and will eat any slop their youtube e-celeb leaders tell them to eat
a shame these historical tag dont change flags when converted like custom subjects do
>EU5 beta-testers: game bad... nothing ever happens... France OP plz nerf...>JOHAN-SAMA: I HEAR YOU, MY DEAR CUSTOMERS>randomly change values in the files and push it as new beta patchAnd this is how we work at paradox interactive
>>2279746Eggs eggs eggs
>>2280067>assault fort>it capitulates in 1 game tick>conquer an entire nation in no time at allJust rush forts as soon as you declare war
>>2279746They didn't, and the shameful state of London/Birmingham/Bradford aren't the whole country
what's the point of having estates in the game if you don't even model the monarchy getting captured by one and unable to do anything due to the many privileges it handed out
if i were the monarch i simply wouldn't be captured by any estates
Is there any up-to-date mod that fixes scaling prices?
if I were a monarch I would probably grant my estates any rights they wanted as long as I got to fuck whores and do torments in peace

if you want to spend time to pirate every new patch of this game wouldn't you save money by just buying the game
not if you're unemployed on a fixed income
>>2280113Go to bed, Johan. Fix some bugs before christmas you lazy swede.
how would i save money by spending monney?And how does paradox deserve my money even if i spend 500+ hours on the game
Why is it so fucking hard to reach the indies.Why do i have to colonize the congo to reach India in a timely fashion.Not like i can actually profit from it since there is only consolidated empires there with equal tech to europe.
imagine if the entire development of this game was clumsily implementing features and wildly changing numbers and mechanics with every patch
>>2280118I am being serious. at some point the time you spend on installing all patches, installing them and making sure you don't install a compromised version must be more than the money spent earning the money to just buy the game and let steam do all that for you
>>2280067levies aren't men, they are fodder
>>2280126downloading all*
>>2280126lmao what do you think pirating isi check a couple websites once a day, it takes 30 seconds, downloading and installing takes half a dozen clicks
sorry but I converted to protestantism so I think that working is a pious did in itself
>>2280030but anon they built like 5 new chip factories when the US said they weren't allowed to buy any morethat seems like a clear-cut case of learning and doing>they stole the technology for how to build the chip factory!learning and studying how to do something is not stealing
they should make a mod that use old paradox themes because all the ones made for this game suck ass
>Redditors think Europe was better because of bureaucracy or institutions or whatever nonsenseImagine a world simulation game where you completely ignore average IQ
>>2280143so do russians have a low iq on average because they were still practicing serfdom and absolutism till the mid 19th century?
>>2280143Redditors also think using decisions/events/missions/whatever other mechanism to prevent the AI from being braindead all game is "railroading"
>>2280146yesCould have made a modern state back in 1800 but they decided to grapeshot their own fans
>>2280143Creating efficient systems of bureaucracy and other institutions is evidence of IQ in a roundabout way. Just nerf non-European adoption of these things with a mod and it’s good enough.
>>2280146obviously there are other factors like mongol/mudslime rapist terrorists ruining things, weather being pretty damn relevant, etc
>We're going to give the AI a defined set of missions that they will complete that leads them to pretermined end points>This is not railroading btw.
>>2280120Outposts were scrapped to be added back in later
>Go CROOSADING as Ingerland>Set up vassal microstate in Jerusalem>They get invaded and annexed at some point>I don't even get notifiedHuh
Would follow to war.
>>2280159your half-cousin second dog has died
>>2280151how do you separate environmental factors from biological factors like IQ?
>>2280146limited contact with other european powers since their waifu Byzantium went down and everyone else treated them pretty gruffly (Ivan had notably bad relations with basically everybody)
So did the recent beta patch make the AI a lot more active or what?
>>2280164?Theres already climate and vegetation in the gameTropical areas should have massive fucking maluses, disease was a game ender for civilization
>>2280143europe was better because they got to exploit the new world first. before that the middle east was king and china was 10x more powerful.
god damn ai is retarded
20 more days until Christmas. Before then I need to turn the whole world Christian so everyone can celebrate the holiday of the red hatted gift-giving fat old guy
>Watch official pre-release video about England>DUDE THEY GET A UNIQUE REFORM CALLED THE MAGNA CARTA WHICH BUFFS NOBLES POWER!>Oh cool>Game releases>There is zero(0) reason not to remove Magna Carta reform ASAP so that your crown power stops being fuckedHuh
>>2280185This is a game about righting history's wrongs.
>>2280185Based.
>>2280185Most of the unique reforms I've come across seem to suck
>>2280185>country selection screen>"this country has like a billion pieces of unique content"and then you play them and 80% of that is hiring a historical artist for half your yearly gdp
>>2280191Austria and Korea get really good ones. All others I've tried so far are either shit you want to remove or just mediocre and not worth keeping.
>>2280193Isn't Korea's unique reform getting forced into marrying mongols or do they get better ones later?
move capital to venice as austria and have my core power base be in italy. y/n?
>>2280197Sounds a bit soulless.
>>2280197they will assimilate you bro
>>2280197Controlmaxxing is fine but controlmaxxing by moving your capital is never fine (unless you are forming Italy and moving to Rome)
>>2280191Prussia unique reform gives you a cabinet option for +25% discipline. The game will also not tell you about it anywhere.

>>2280212Jays and the Golden Horde don't collapse because the AI Timurid's is dogshit.
they've been doing this for a whole year
Is it just me or is the AI much more aggressive and willing to randomly declare no CB wars?
>>2280220I see the Golden Horde collapse most games now thoughbeit.Timur is a shit though
>>2280222>uses mods>wonders why things get wonky
>>2280223Yes, the beta patch turned aggression up to comical levels
Court And Country disaster just fired. I stripped all privileges from every estate but my crown power still won't go above 80%, much less the 84.46% the disaster requires to end. I swapped to Royal Decree and Autocracy reforms too. Upon investigation I discovered that my wise rule has made my country TOO prosperous and now there are too many burghers clinging to power. Even with no privileges, there are enough burgher pops to keep my crown power from hitting 84.46%.Something must be done.
huh, the patch seems to have actually fixed whatever was crashing my game at the same date. Thanks johan(sincerely!)
>>2280234total (((trader))) death
>>2280234Time to tear down all the burgher buildings. Have them retvrn to peasant.
>>2280234make your ruler and heir generals

>>2280234increase control in your provinces
>>2280234+50% crown power parliament session bonus should be enough
>>2280231Huh, that explains why the pope ate Siena, Austria ate Aquileia, Aragon ate half of Genoa and Morocco ate Grenada, all before 1340.

>finally get the claim french throne option in peace treaty to 95 warscore>but I'm in a regency>select it anyway after carpet sieging yet again,>they accept'>war ends>nothing happens.well that was anti-cinematic. I know it's realistic the French would not accept a 5 year old boy as their king but they should grey it out if in a regency. I could have severed yet more french vassals.

>>2280185Manga carta is good though, the -crown power is tiny and the parliament support is great for later on when you've revoked a bunch of privilegesThey just buffed it with levy combat ability too
>>2280284Was this because Control tanks to 0 when the provinces return from civil wars?
>>2280284Did the population change?
>Demolish every single burgher building>Suddenly for the first time in my entire playthrough, not a single estate is building any bullshit>No toll castles, no spiritual retreats, no burgher mansions, no festival grounds>All estates are building nice functional buildingsTHEY MUST LEARN TO FEAR>>2280299No it's because I deleted all burgher buildings in my country
>>2280295With levies taking 20 years to come backCountries should get fucking partitioned when they have zero troops for decades
Does having civil wars whipe out the levies in the provinces that turned for me as well?
>Nuking my entire economy has only raised crown power to 80%But now the pops are demoting. Back to peasanthood you go. I deleted all noble buildings too. No more Confucian academies. All of you were peasants and you will all become peasants again for annoying me with this Court And Country bullshit

They should bring back negative prestige and increase the limit from +/-100 to +/-1000

>>2280367They should remove prestige because it serves no real gameplay function, just an arbitrary number/currency.
>>2280377do as >>2280372 said and build some ships. very likely 1 or 2 regulars will ve enough
>>2280378Prestige serves no purpose in real life either yet leaders bent over backwards doing retarded shit for the sake of prestige. It's perfect in that regard. It makes you think it's worth something even though it isn't so you unwittingly roleplay like an early modern king.
>>2280380he probably destroyed the docks too
>>2280372>>2280380The issue is I don't have any sailors to build ships with because I destroyed all my docks and wharfs during the Great Deindustrialization. (I have 165 outdated and decaying light ships for maritime presence)What happened is funnier. Yuan went into another civil war, I bought military access from Yuan's rebels. And then the CHINESE WARLORD NAMED MAO let me through to put down the last of my noble rebels.
>>2280383But docks doesn't increase estate power

>>2280384I've done it boys. My economy is 1/4th what it was three years ago, I've lost 2/3rds of the slush fund I saved up from going afk decades ago, and my country has nothing but RGOs but I've done it. The authority of the Wang Dynasty is secure

>>2280403>
>Population prior to revolution36.175M>Deaths for both sides purely from combat1.442M>Population after revolution, ~1 year35.878MCombat deaths are an absolute meme. Only one province is ever drained of peasants at a time, and if the number overflows the remainder is simply ignored.
>>2280405how many of these fled to america
>>2280412Yeah, maybe that would lead them to be less fucking retarded
>>2280410Typhus should appear around armies taking attrition. Resistance should also fade very quickly since it's spread by eating contaminated stuff, you can't just become so immune to eating shit it no longer harms you.
>>2280403are you going to be recovering from this "disaster"?
>>2280405this spike is due to the food volume increase btw
>>2280413go to bed
>>2280418>SIEGE_DISEASE_IMPACT = 0.05I'm gonna crank this shit up to see what kind of impact it has
>>2280418I think you're confusing typhus with yellow fever or dysentry
>>2280419Yeah. Step 1 is expanding my RGOs because my economy has turned into a third-world shithole that relies entirely on exporting primary resources.
Is the new patch save compatible or does it fuck shit up too much
>>2280413dont reply to polish
>>2280424I think that's how many soldiers a disease outbreak (siege outcome) kills.
>>2280428korean provincial density is insane
>>2280428would you say you are becoming.... self determined?
>no regency eventsso boring and undercooked. I want to see some princes in the tower type stuff but likely that's too squicky for paracucks.
>>2280429no big patch is save compatible if you are playing seriously
>>2280431Oh, that's disappointing.
Why can scorch earth only be used on my own provinces?Why can't I loot and pillage someone I'm attacking?
>>2280427Typhus comes from a salmonella bacteria, but unlike the kind you can get from contaminated chicken, it's only found in humans. In other words you get it from consuming something contaminated by human shit. i.e. from water shortages or bad sanitation. Happened in army camps or besieged cities all the time.
>>2280191Byzantium gets a cool one.
>>2280437I'll do you one better>hordes have a modifier to reduce the cost of downgrading cities into rural locations, to simulate burning down towns>you can't downgrade a location unless it's a core (not even integrated will do)
>>2280438isn't also spread by lice and why delousing campaigns were undertaken in the 20th century to stop the spread?
>>2280437It's a defensive tactic but I agree it should be usable on any province you occupy. If you don't want your food storage burned don't lose the food storage, simple as.
>>2280438I think you are confusing something. All the sources I find only state lice and other bloodsuckers as vectors, nothing about ingesting the pathogen
>>2280437to stop you from abusing it
>>2280437everyone would be using it only for attacking then, desu i doubt its worth ever pressing on yourself, maybe its some advanced combat mechanic but the combat is already super easy, ai is retarded
>>2280437>>2280442This is how Germany lost 30% of it's population btw.
>>2280441>>2280443Yeah I guess I mixed them up, Typhus is the lice one and Typhoid is the fecal-oral one, weird
>>2280443Dysentery is spread by contaminated water, could be he got them mixed up?
>>2280443>While typhoid means 'typhus-like', typhus and typhoid fever are distinct diseases caused by different types of bacteria, the latter by specific strains of Salmonella typhi.[8] However, in some languages such as German, the term typhus does mean 'typhoid fever', and the here-described typhus is called by another name, such as the language's equivalent of 'lice fever'.Alright found the root of the confusion
>>2280444>>2280445Just give it some massive antagonism modifier or something
>>2280444but abusing it is literally what happend in real life and why wars were so destructive.
>go take a piss>England has renamed itself and dismantled Austria with Hungary's helpDid they rename themselves because Edward the African American lived?
>>2280444Don't want to be abused? Don't lose the warIt's that easy.
>>2280451>>2280450maybe you're right
>>2280452cant wait for the anti-bohemia, hungary and kiev patches
>>2280445It is definitely worth it to use defensively in some circumstances. If the enemy is sieging forts too far in to supply from home, and you destroy the food stores ahead of them before they get there, they'll melt and die from lack of food. It's especially strong if you're playing somewhere with strong winters. You can pretty much win without fighting. If they try supplying with units you can raid their supply lines (never seen the AI make dedicated logistical units however)
why is there no option to use the black death as a weapon in hyw? i want to catapult plague bodies at the french

>Minting is already at zero>Inflation still growing because I have so much gold and silver being mined in my countryHow do I fix this? I can't destroy rgo
imperator did a nice(but abstract) way of making wars hurt, every time a province was occupied, a % of the pop was killed or enslaved
>>2280471why cant you destroy itthe only other option is to grow the rest of economy up, there is also a burger privilege
>>2280471yeah you can (but you shouldnt)just grow the rest of the economy
>>2280471export, downsize, change laws?
>>2280474if you start in a shithole like america or africa and have a mine right away its better to destroy it for a time, it will take you decades to recover otherwise
>>2280471destroy the rgo.
>>2280471If you have that much gold and silver the local price must be rock bottom, time to make more money exporting it than you lose from inflation.
>>2280471get rid of it

>>2280499AI is far more aggressive in general on the new patch.
>>2280500Max out your population as much as possible. That’s like 70% of the score, even if you have minimal control over much of it.
>>2280489search for country_names_l_english.yml in your game directorymost countries don't have different names based on court language, basically only the big popular ones like britain and spain.

>>2280512control is a mechanic
>>2280506We need to limit the AI from taking provinces they have no direct connection to (either through land or sea)
>>2280511last use of longbowmen was in the English civil war so not too ahistorical.
>>2280512canal building is busted, better than bridges
>>2280511You’re showing as the attacker. If you don’t achieve the goals that you established as the attacker the defender will passively max out warscore over time.
>>2280512The grand canal is in the game though
took me too long to figure out how this shit worksI have no idea if the AI will use this modified scorched earth but I sure hope they do
>Wang wee? Yeah it does that. If yours doesn't, you should get a doctor to check that out.

>with this new AI aggression, i finally get to be the shield against islam i always wanted to besovl
>>2280524hm, might have set the weighting a little too high
>>2270681Looks like this is fixed in 1.0.10 beta so I guess i'll swap to beta branch, hope it doesn't break anything.the whole thing does leave me wondering though, should denied military access be a sort of half CB, not the full penalty of a real baseless war but a little bit of a hit, I think playing around with different values for CB could be an interesting design space
>>2280541Maybe it should incur the same diplomatic penalties as a no-CB, but not the internal issues? the Brits didn't think it was very cool of the Germans to use it in 1914 but the Germans themselves weren't taking to the streets en masse
>>2280415the problem is that all pops are interchangeable so there's no demographic collapse or labor shortage from having ONLY healthy young men killed in droves in war
>>2280537maybe it's not so bad, seems to recover pretty quick if you aren't constantly at war.
>>2280537so it punishes waging wars?
do zones of control stop working at some point?
>>22805471373 and France is a post apocalyptic wasteland. We'll see how they recover>>2280548I'm trying to modify the scorched earth command to make the AI more likely to actually cause lasting damages during wars to slow the crazy growth>>2280549there's a tech in the age of revolutions that let you ignore them iirc
>>2280551holy shit Ming won? I've never seen Yuan fall before
>>2280549yes. napoleon lets everyone ignore them
So how does playing china work, do you start out as yuan then pick to support a rebel faction like ming or what?
>>2280553how?it begs the question of what zone of control even represents
>>2280556forts 'controlling' landscapes raiding supply lines, maybe. really it's a gameplay mechanic
>>2280551Recovery after 10 years seems decent enough.
>>2280554yes. shortly after the game starts the red turban rebellion starts which periodically releases a bunch of chinese warlords. most of them fight against you but some of them ally you. each time they get released you can choose to play as them. all the different warlords get a giga powerful CB on each other to unite china and the winner of chinabowl gets to form the empire
>>2280556wasn't napoopan known for having his troops live off the land and fucking wreck everything around them? zone of control doesn't matter if you don't have supply lines
>>2280553Does the game spawn historical leaders at all aside from beginning of the game? Ie does Napoleon spawn or have a possibility of spawning given correct conditions are met?
>>2280563Korea gets a historical event to replace their ruler
>>2279828>you press buttons and things happen>you have to learn what to do when things happen Holy shit… so true… a stunning indictment…
>>2280556fortified position that enemy troops (mostly cavalry) could safely rest/resupply at and wreak havoc on your supply lines and logistics from if you ignored it so in order to stop that you basically had to siege it or avoid the effective range of the cavalry in between, hence zone of controlmakes sense its less relevant in an age where cavalry was less powerful and armies were more professionalcastles should be more expensive to build or maintain anyway, shit was not cheap
>>2280512there is literally a river mechanic though
What causes Timur to settle into a monarchy? He always seems to conquer central asia and then just sits down and does nothing for the rest of the game
>>2280571Their situation causes that
>>2280572damn their situation fucking sucks then
>>2280566they should also take much longer to build. A stone castle was not put up in a year or so.
>>2280571>>2280572>>2280573Timur's situation has two interactions, one where he picks a region to make his core region, it requires him to control 40% of what's there and gives cores, this unlocks another one where he settles into a monarchy and it's only requirement is that he picked a core region, aka the AI is going to instantly click that shiny new buttonThe big thing about settling down as the Timurids is that it disables that mechanic where they automatically annex land they siege down
okay nevermind im tired of being the shield against islam HELP ME
>>2280576I'm gonna try lowering the AI desire to click that button but 10x then
>>2280582Just make it so that they can't click it if Timur himself is still alive
>>2280234im sorry you didnt game your gaming hard enoughyou need to tank your crown power before the disaster fires or you cuck yourself, because like with most features, it was never testedi was being a good boy playing game with no cheats no reloads just gaming and got to almost 70% crown power before disaster fired, end req was 89.9% crown power, utterly unachievable of course.

i tried to avoid aggression for the longest time in my cyprus playthrough but after taking constantinople and marveling at the size and power of its market i realize that it was a mistake, playing tall is inferior, or not really tall but contained to your starting area, you should be expanding and taking over the most valuable places on the map.Now to discover what those are. Mesoamerica obviously, madagascar brought me a shit ton of money but its a long process of colonization, something in indonesia where the papers are. India is unbreachable i feel like without a total war, but you cannot ask anyone to join if you are in europe.
>>2280590tall in the sense of real world maps has always been more "play what makes geographical, historical and cultural sense to expand to" rather than "paint the entire map one color" so cyprus trying to take over anatolia and greece is reasonable as they are historically greek despite the ruling family being french at this start date
its actually so stupid how roads just ignore terrain now like a road straight over a mountain takes just as long to pass as a road through flat fields
thought it was only vegetation that changed
>>2280598it was
I survived Mings onslaught and had quite a few decades of peace now. My 30k war debt has been paid off and Australia has almost fully been colonized by me. Not sure what to do right now as I stand no chance against Mings 1 millions levies and shit ton of regulars. Maybe I'll go visit Japan, even though I fucking hate transport ships. No clue how they work.
since ai doesnt use columbian exchange it become a just win button for the player
>>2280594ugh... yeah? that's how it works irl, too
>>2280594Can you go through mountains in the winter with the new roads?
>>2280594they do take 300% longer time to build in mountains so considering that the mountains are traversable in the first place, it makes sense that they are building a road on a relatively good spotthey should have a higher maintenance cost or something
>1st GP is a fiefdom of the 3rd GPwhat
>>2280602a road right over the alps takes me just as long to travel as a road through the steppesyeah rightthis makes even less sense than ignoring distance or only taking into account the terrain of the origin provincethe whole system is fucked>>2280604no
>>2280544Yeah that could work well
>>2280601or notwill see in the next playthroughnot having high hopes, they rely on the players to test their shit and most wont even get to this stage
>banning exports on gold includes exporting to your own markets>trashed both my trade economy and minting at the same time
>>2280616yea its retarded, i dont think you should ever use it at all
warscore hyperflung my way after one lucky battle and i now have a temporary truce with the ottomansplease reply with your rating of epicness
anyone playing the last patch? hows the trade?
>>2280621i tried this tag once and epicly ruined my economy buying food in winter
>>2280384This shit is going to read like crazy in your world's history books
>>2280630nah we already have it in our world>lord ching of chong gets into minor dispute with neighboring dukedom of ping>40000000 chinks dead, fifty cities wiped off the maphere it's just koreans instead>king kim has a polite disagreement on politics with lords and merchants>entire country torn down, economic collapse and mass unemployment
I havent played in three weeks due to being too busy. Do I just restart, or are the patch changes not that big a deal?
restart if you had any intention of colonizing. at least then there's a hope you will be able to explore beyond coastlines
>>2280624Anatolian winter is annoying as shit>have an army up in the steppes>tell it to move down to the levant for war with the mamluks, don't bother using navy (clueless)>a year later it hasn't arrived>it got marooned in the taurus mountains for FIVE MONTHS because of fucking winterHow do the local armenians even survive, they can't grow food five months out of the year? I guess they don't survive which is why they're not there anymore
>>2280646Alps too. It's so gay that we don't have a "avoid mountains and frozen lakes" toggle. Maybe they'll add it in 2027 with other QOL and UI shit.
>>2280648The mountains I can live with but having an army randomly die from auto-pathing onto ice is bullshitbut also funny
>>2280646its fine you can just walk all the way to the caspian sea to bypass the caucasuscilicia is basically the promised land in comparison to their anatolian neighbours
tbqh mountains should go from totally impassible to "only" giving huge movement penalties in later ages.
>>2280646try being in georgia, especially down towards armenia, you have to specifically path on the coasts or along the river every time or you will constantly get stuck, meanwhile the AI never makes that mistake so they perfectly weave through every zone of control/mountain issueit took me about 200 years in game to get my own pathing down
>>2280657*in winter. If it's age 5 or something i should have the option of force marching guys through mountains during winter, it should just slow me down a lot and cause a bunch of attrition
>>2280657I like them being impassable but I wish armies would naturally avoid them in that case. If I have to manually path into mountains or lakes then so be it.
Ok so i want to attack the Karamanids, who're a vassal of the Eretnids, who is somehow a vassal of Jalayirids. Jala has 15 vassals all of whom are disloyal. When i attack Kara just who will actually attack me in defense? Or is this something that will be such a nonsense war that it wont be worth the headache and i should let things play out a bit.
Why is my king in a fiefdom instead of my main country? I can't get him married. He just came of age through a regency.
>>2280668if you do go to war, their cavalry will shred you if you aren't careful
>>2280670Why are fiefdoms like that anyway? I thought a fiefdom was just a title granted or anyone.
>>2280670I think it'll fix itself after a month or two when the regency ended
karasids independent despite how it appears on the mapi would really like to switch orthodox if i can. *if GOD is willing*i don't imagine ottomans can challenge from here
don't seem to get the randomly occuring event where one could trade a single location to eretnids for massive favour... can't say why that is
got to leave this one alone for abit or where goest the soul... cheers to the bigfela anyway. pretty good game, ok?
>>2280646>>2280648>>2280661armies getting stuck pathing INTO mountains is what really gets mei really can't micro you shits so you know to turn away when the snow starts falling, please please just let me cancel the move.
>>2279740Bailiffs give 15 proximityif you have a rural location that has less than 15 proximity and a good rgo then build a bailiffbuilding a bailiff in a location that has more than 15 proximity does nothing and it will quickly become the case that everywhere has more than 15 proximity once your game gets going
surely it's +15% local proximity +whatever base percentage for having a core there. i get that the proximity from bailiffs don't stack but the control does (i'm pretty sure)
>>2280687you get 20% control for a core + 75% of the proximity value, stacking bailiffs doesnt do anything beyond the 15% control in the provinces
please don't hyperlink from my posts from now on i'm playing battlefield
>>2280678they're a subject and subjects cant take part in the turkish situation anymore so they're not pressing the royal marriage for location button

There a country that kinda flies under the radar on how fun they are at the moment? Cant decide who to play next.
It's over
why are there 3 of these thread up>>2275728 #>>2275743 #I feel like have every city automatically be a center of control would be busted and heavily negate the mechanic, but there definitely needs to be a way of generating sources of control beyond the capital. Maybe tie it to some kind of limited building or location designation that can only be built in or applied to cities. Keep them fairly limited with a hard cap that is tied to country rank and or other stats like total population. Mayde the province in which a capital location could be the source of control rather than just the capital location?There is definitely the opportunity for a good mechanic here, but I suspect they will go all in on capital only control. As it stands it just isn't worth expanding past the core around you capital for reasons other than blobbing RGOs for trade memes which can somehow be extracted, catalogued, and transported for trade through territory that has barely any government control. They are obviously unhappy with the vassal spam meta but the control mechanic outright incentives it
>>2280693I've been having fun with AragonNot forming Spain or colonizing, but expanding in the Mediterranean
Does it matter which shithole nation I pick if I want to Aztec larp?
>>2280602nigga mountain roads are a nightmare into build, maintain, and use even in the modern day
>unsinkable fishing boats just keep bouncing between tiles after instarouting>single transports with 50 men rushing through blockades to make a landingjust incredible how they manage to make naval combat worse with every single patch
>>2280702Cities should simultaneously have more potential for control, since they keep a bunch of people in an easy to monitor pen. But they should also be able to very easily cause massive control issues, as they give a lot of resources to local people that can be used to turn it into a fortress.
I was finally able to get the french throne as England. When do I get the dual monarchy and the fancy flag? Do I have to integrate France?

What combo of starting nation and settlement area should I do if I want to do a colonial exile build? I think the "obvious" ones are Portugal and somewhere in Caribean or South America or Norway (or Iceland?) into North America but is there something anyone here would recommend or some practical tips in doing that in the first place? Do I just speed 5 and go afk while accumulating money to get the first few explorers and stuff and then swap to the colonial nation instantly or do I need to do some shenanigans first with the colonies?
>>2280722Netherlands is a funny one
>>2280723I kinda want to reserve Netherlands for the certified tall™ playtrough where every province is turned into a merchants paradise. I really doubt I have the energy to play the same nation twice in this game due to the way the early game sucks so much.
>siege down enemy ally's capital>5 warscore, cant even demand war repsits so tiresome
>>2280726if that's the case, any country will work that has coastal regions, someone a few days ago posted that they played a small german state and got exiled to the north american colony after they neglected their army
big battles with what the enemy considers a primary army is the one that will flip your warscore heaps. which is the way it should be, really
>fighting rebels for my Scottish dominion>about to boat to one of their little island hideouts and siege them down>my fucking dominion makes white peace with them so now they are free???we literally had 60% warscore already...
>>2280734only occupations give warscore towards peacing out secondary participants however
CTRL+F9 will allow you to hide the interface to take clean screenshots of the map
>>2280734>kill 130% of enemy max strength at 4:1 ratio>11.5% warscore from battlecant even get to 15% from battles, now what?
>>2280740Thought you might be joking, but thanks for the tip!

>>2280878They already had more than enough on their plate with managing the Rurikid princedoms, collecting taxes, and a lot of internal instability with other tribes like the Nogai. Their sphere of influence was pretty solidified after they subjugated Crimea and Novgorod defeated the Teutonic Order and remained independent. Then the Black Death ravaged their population, constant civil wars after Batu Khan died, then Timur happened.

Guys it's only the year 1700, i've been starting at the screen for 10 minutes and only 2 years have passed, is there ANY WAY to increase the speed of this game? Got a top-tier CPU too
This game is now what genre is strong to give you what to weaken, the importance of proximity will give you subtraction of proximity plus, centralization of power will give you debuff, a Pve game light weakened does not strengthen, I come to play is not to be the son of the opposite heaven to change the fate of the face.You have to say that for the sake of authenticity, you have not seen how real this game is now, the Hundred Years War Britain has no advantage at all, the big dollar is either not cracked or broken, the Ottomans have not destroyed the setting of the Mamu, Portugal will always be eaten by Kaka, the vast army countries of Central Asia and West Asia have broken one or two, and Mao Zi has never seen what Siberia looks like.Cancel the mission tree said good, in order to make the country more free, the result is still the same in the same way, the same as you add to the game ah, weaken the strong play is what, don't always change your broken value like the face. You really want to update and quickly fix the bug ah, the southwest of the earth race out of a liquefied natural gas kingdom, updated or Pinyin, and now to make a use of mod sinicization.

>>2280966I replied to le bait. xd
Highly recommended.There are a lot of bugs, and usually 300 bugs and a hundred bugs.The game is also very unimportant to Chinese, translation errors and translation inaccuracies abound, and even a lot of Chinese display bugs.The game mechanism is also very unreasonable, who dares to imagine that the Chinese Yuan Dynasty is irreversibly decentralizing power?Fine art is also far less than four generations, I do not understand the direct use of four generations of art should not be a very good decision?The most important thing is that the game is not adjusted at all, like my starter starter players are completely paid testers, my computer configuration is not high to play this game five times can not play at all, now the version has been updated to 1.0.10, this problem is not solved at all, I even regret buying this game.And the attitude of game developers is also very problematic, I have seen more than once on the Internet, players found bugs to find the game developers to reflect, and game developers argue that this is not a bug, but also said that players do not understand the game mechanism, even the most basic attitude.This game is not recommended for purchase.

Pick one of those tribal states, go PLOW for the first 20 years with the free CB, take everything ignoring antagony and stability (not like anyone gives a shit about some tribes in ireland) until it's just you and the Pale,Then you will be forced to become a tributary of the UK - which is actually perfect as now you can just 1v1 Pale with no british intervention.

Give it to me straight, what is the difference between me going into the building screen, sorting by profit, clicking on the first building types and shift clicking on mass expand building vs putting the entire building menu on automation mode?
>promoting literacy would be "overpowered" for a country in the early modern era, if the rulers were an abstract "spirit of the nation" instead of gentry and didn't care to keep the peasants illiterate and not demanding rights>colonizing would be "overpowered" if a country knew in detail where every new landmass is, and which would be the most profitable and geopolitically important colonies in the futureThe problem is the player starts with knowledge of both of these which pushes for an ahistorical "meta" identical for every country. But on the other hand you can't "balance" being an illiterate dirt farmer to be as good as a literate citizen because it's unrealistic.

>>2281014A lot of places in Russia still practice serfdom to this day.
>>2281019It lists them when you hover over the guy to be canonized. You get prestige, legitimacy and clergy happines or something like that in a lump sum. It's mostly worthless but good way to recover lots of legitimacy or push for duchy/kingdom prestige breakpoint.

>>2281023no they dont, nafotranny
>>2281026I think people are way too sensitive about the values. Everyone thinks you have to have a grand plan before unpausing the game and push as hard as possible towards your desired values from day 1.It's completely ok to go with the flow and only nudge your values towards what you want over decades and centuries. It's ok to have a couple of the sliders in the middle and not be getting bonuses. It's OK to push against the "best" value to get more green plussies on the other side of the bar.

>>2281038It's retarded you can't see nations on the scoreboard you haven't discovered yet. But you can still see them when you can reach them through menus from other nations. Like if a nation that you know is in war with a nation you don't know, you can see their menu and ruler by going over the war menu. Similarly when they are hegemon over the hegemon menu. Then somehow you magically know that this nation exists and is great power #5
It's over Cathar bros, I am forced by the will of the majority to retvrn to the Catholic church. Even with full humanist and tolerance spam I was facing nationwide revolt due to the wars of religion event modifiers.

>Byzzies didn't collapse immediately>Hungary getting shrek'd>Jalayirids gone>Ottomans floundering>GrossEnglandicums>Teutonic Order wiped out Lithuaniawell this is certainly turning into an interesting gameWhy can't this shit ever happen when I'm actually playing it
The changes to AI aggressiveness in 1.0.10 are genuinely terrible, I'm rolling back to .9
SHEEEEEEEEITNothing ever happens bros... something.... happened......
>>2281055nice, big georgia
>>2281058big georgia happens in like every game until they get raped by the mamluks
no wargoal wars should have much higher penalties if you're both in the HRE
>>2281057LMAO
vgh.... grossnaples....
>>2281072Ah, that explains it.>Integration Level 6I've never seen the AI actually do that before. Will be horrifying to see England actually eat Naples this way
>>2280734>big battles with what the enemy considers a primary armyDon't do anything. You kill them all and then they just spawn another and another and another horde of pops to fight you. It's so tiresome
>>2281074They patched that out doe
what if calling levies would unemploy your buildings? i know it doesn't really make sense to draft the shopkeepers and people with jobs in buildings to go to war, but at least it will be more punishing to raise levies. raise levy in your location, the buildings become half unemployed and RGOs too? would that help?
>>2281077peasants should be the ones working rgos instead of labourers. labourers would be peasant class pops who just work labourer buildings.this way when you depopulate your peasants through war or by sending them to work in the city you lose out on raw material production which would actually meaningfully hurt your economy.
>>2281057nothing will happen with that though
>>2281079That would change exactly nothing, if your pops die then they would just be replaced instantly because now your peasants are working the RGO's
>>2280894because medieval history is fanfiction wankfest written in 18-19 century
>>2281083not sure you understood what I wrote.peasants would work the rgos (INSTEAD of labourers) so when your peasants die in droves in war you will have fewer peasants to work rgos. how are you replacing dead peasants instantly?
>>2281079i like the current pop types, but i think, if RGOs got emptied out when you called levies, then you would have the penalty of having to wait months for your peasents to promote to laborers again if a lot of them died in the war
>>2281087From the peasants that survive, now they don't even have to promote, they just fill the jobs on the next tick.
WTF is lacquerware and why does EVERYONE need it?
How are you increasing maritime presence? is building stacks of 50 galleys as ottomans enough for each sea zone?
>>2281002>implying I have discovered that shithole
>>2281095idk I just make boats and park them somewhere and hope for the bestno idea how this mechanic works because the maritime presence / proximity map modes are fucking useless at explaining it
>>2281095light ships are the best at raising maritime presence. so you build a few small stacks of light ships specifically to patrol your sea zones. I usually use stacks of 10 but idk how optimal that is.
>>2281094bitches love pretty plates
>>2280492>>2280493You are a doorknob, GTFO. I happen to like actually conducting a "battle", even if just at high-level.
why did they remove river map mode completely?
VGH..... GEORGIA'S NATVRAL BORDERS.....
>>2281095Build port infrastructure and build ships and send them out to patrol.>>2281100You need bigger stacks than that otherwise the fleet can't even fight the decay. You should make a fleet that's big enough to at least give +2 to a zone but preferable more.
>>2281104Starting to look like another Georgia
>>2281057Show dem crackas who is da real Rum here

Started Scotland save, just finished with those Balliol shits. Do you ever get an event or something to move the capital from Dunfermline (rural settlement) or should I start working towards manually moving it?
>>2281110There's an event to move your capital to London if you take it, but that's it
>>2280563Exclusively video-game wise? No, unfortunately, not since EU3/the Europa Veritas mod for EU4. 1337 or nothing, pending mods, and the sandboxsisters ITT/reddit will still flip out on you if you start anywhere but this pre-1444/153 dogshit.

hunting accidents aren't even RNG, you can reload a save from several months before and you'll still get the event going to install a mod to remove them because I've had it happen to 2 heirs in a row
>>2281152Isn't this how every Paradox game is? Events are RNG, but that RNG is set on a pulse several months in advance
It's on, baby.
Wait what the fuck just happenedHow did Aquitaine get erased from existence??
>>2281156A bunch of locations just lost ownersWhat the fuck?
>>2281142Rhodes is as populated as cities like Rome and Brugge in my game
>>2280646in a previous thread a russia player got his whole army lost because the path finder made it march over the frozen gulf of botnia as it melted
>>2281157oh no
>>2281159has such a thing ever happened historically? an entire army fucking dying because a lake melted while they walked over it? seems so cartoonishly silly.
>>2281161closest would be the Battle on the Ice, I think

>>2280646eu5 mountains are based they really make you understand how switzerland and other mountain tribes managed to survive and stay independent for so long
>Zoom in to watch my little OSRS guys fighting>/mydudes/ look almost like /theirdudes/How do you throatsing "bruderkrieg" in Mongolian?
>>2281161No because real armies don't march over frozen oceans let alone frozen lakes without first making sure that it's absolutely safe. You don't just march 10k people on the ice and the wait there for days and see what happens. You walk across in files and then camp on the other side even if there would be a weak spot that causes the ice to break there's no way more than couple guys would actually drown.
>>2280832pearl necklace face
I'm really liking how the Timurids start out. It reminds me of Eu3 Horde mechanics
>>2281161closest thing I can think of was the march over the belts but that was a resounding success https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/March_Across_the_Beltsdoes anyone know if the AI knows to avoid these traps or does it keep losing whole armies by marching across frozen seas?>>2281162I think that was a myth. Like the recent napoleon movie where he drowns the russian and austrian at austerlitz army by canon balling the ice. somewhat similar to the idea of the mongols losing due to a tsunami.your enemy getting wrecked by the elements makes for a better story than you winning by your competence or their incompetence.
hmmm

>>2281196I would be happy knowing that if I stub my toe I won't die from gangrene>>2281198That's because social media has made people too retarded. In 1800 if a king was setting up hospitals all over the country his pops should be kissing his ass for not making every random cough a gamble
>Your daughter is named Wang Suk>Your son is named Wang RipYeah okay whatever you say, Paradox
>>2281199I'm honestly shocked Moscow is doing as well as it is.If only hordes started collapsing more easily. Golden Horde always survives because it has some tiny province in Siberia that no one can reach before a peace deal is made.
>>2281201The Catholic church did that all over the place and people murdered their own brothers and neighbors desperately trying to destroy it
>>2281195>>2281201You do know that this was an era where medical "professionals" didn't bother with hygiene and any surgery you got would probably make you worse off from the infection right?

>>2281207>telling surgeons and doctors to wash their hands between patients lands you in mental asylum even in the 1800sGrim.
>>2281207Yeah but when we build disease resistance buildings they actually work so my assumption is we aren't hiring any of the "you need to gargle onion juices and sleep upside down to fix your humors" quacks
>>2281188neat, never seen Persia form
>>2281213VGHHH.....

>>2281216Why does the reformation always fail? I never see Calvanists or Anglicans show up and barely anyone ever converts to Lutheran
>>2281220VGH, Sunni Alps.
>>2281174My friend's grandmother was Polish and used to call niggers "Chudnas" Took me a while to realize the people saying it online weren't using it to mean nigger.
>>2281220Because cabinet actions are OP, same reason why every country assimilates to primary culture in the first hundred years, and why mongolians span the whole earth. There shouldn't be a magic convert pops button.
>>2281220England only gets the event to create Anglicanism if>their king is married>their king is within a certain age bracket(I forgot what it was)>their king has 3 or more daughters with no sonSimply having Anglicanism spawn would be railroading so right now it may as well not exist
Holy kino, I kneel johan...
>>2281227You forgot that it can only spawn within a 30 year time period (iirc 1530-1570)
1600's/Late reformation age feels impossible to play, what should I upgrade to play this a little bit more smoothly, in a world where AI niggers didn't ruin the pc components markets. Kill all AI niggers

When you are about to enter the age of absolutism tank your crown power as much as possible,change laws, fill your cabinet with powerful estates,assign generals, change government reforms.Completing the crisis condition requires you to increase your government power by 20 and its far easier to increase it the lower it is

>>2281472>similar culture so easy to accept>close proximity to your capitalwhy wouldn't you eat poortugal?
>>2281472Why wouldn't it? It's a weaker power that realistically can't get any allies except Aragon and together they aren't strong enough to stop Castille.
>>2281472Only reason IRL portugal survived was because of England.
>>2281490i've got turanian and franconian baddies in my realm, they get married to the proper turan finns (not the fake swede ones).
>>2281491Because historically they tried to integrate portugal by force three times and failed each one. If the game really wants to simulate history it shouldn't be guaranteed since it clearly wasn't easy to do in real life

>>2281505Now that's what I call a historical simulator. Just need to start importing BBCs

Why do i get spammed by "a new outbreak" event every time i start as muscovy
>>22815871444 was a weird date for the Byzaboos, the only thing wrong is Englan maybe getting to fight harder at the end of the HYW. Should be 1453.The decision to force you to play any kind of medieval era is awful. Fucking slog, and stagnant to boot."Muh sandbox!" Nothing changes by 1837.

>>2281593Elected rulers never have to take accountability because they'll just get replaced at some point. Where as a single ruler who rules for life has to actually worry about public pressure and desire.

>>2281613>>2281617>>2281619You misunderstand. I'm a full zigger. The Berlin wall should never have fallen, the world was better when eastern Europe was subjugated under Russia. But if you're a Pole why would you want to be subjugated under Russia?
What happens if there are no eligible heirs from my line (favored son law) but there are a lot of relatives around? Civil War?
>>2281625Why would anyone want to be subjugated under russia? Did russia ever did anything positive for itself or any of it's vassal?
>>2281608*wrong with making it 1453
>>2281627I guess he hates other eastern europoors more than russians?
>>2281627Compare Poland 1939 to Poland 1953.

>>2281630>both times when Poland was under occupation???>14 years apart toowhat is your point?
kill all /pol/niggers.
I'd like the game to start on midnight, 29 May, 1453. So Byzzieboos can technically start as Byzantium but it's 100% siege progress. Their sole gameplay would be losing the siege then signing the full annexation treaty.
have anyone played 1.0.10?how's the trade?
>>22816351939 Poland was a backwards illiterate shithole, by 1953 at the death of Stalin the country had been fully electrified, industrialized, and turned into a shining beacon of the Eastern bloc. Eastern Europe did much better under Russian rule than their own.

>>2281654you wouldnt be conquered if you had actual state power and not a bunch of traitorous nobles retard, but i guess its because your people are too nice and kind actually
>>2281656>what if pigs grew wings and started flyingNo actions anyone could have done could have saved Byzantium by this point. You're not talking about realistic scenarios. You're not talking about fascinating alt-history. You're not talking about plausible events. You're talking fantasy headcanon LARP for retards who don't understand the forces of history.It's like asking what if your mother didn't drink during pregnancy with you, but she was that much of a coked out whore that there is no possible scenario where she didn't not drink.

Is using parliament for CBs even a good use of it? You probably take a -7 stab hit from failing the actual vote, you still take a stab hit on declaring war, and you lose out on whatever else you could have done in the parliament instead

>>2281708Stability is raised with money and not admin mana so it's much less punishing than EU4, your EU4 muscle memory is kicking in if stability loss is scary for you
>>2281708Poland was richer than the ussr through the entire cold war thoughbitely
>>2281714>noooo i want my broken dlc to be added to the broken base game even more brokenthis is a good thing actually
wow the 1600s were shitty
>>2281720AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
>>2281716but that's just siding with the country? what do you get for liberal victory anyway? court victory gives decent boost to crown power
>>2281717Thats what I mean though, no CB wars seem fine in this game. Not sure going the parliment route is worth it over just no CBing people
>>2281708What other CB are you gonna use? There's not many options in EU5.
>>228170825% lower conquer province war cost 25% lower antagonism which is almost completely inconsequential though
>>2281720>Polishsissies actually believe this
>>2281717Retarded. Bring back power.
>>2281733When you become a great power you can threaten war which makes it -25% if (and when) they refuse>>2281689It was very fucking stupid of them to even put release dates on those when the game itself is basically in early alpha
>>2281732just no CB and take the 25 stab hitit's really not that bad, especially for bullying small nations of different culture / religion where you don't need the warscore efficiency and the antagonism doesn't matter

Interdasting. Especially since you can still annex vassals.Also do theocracies have anything interesting going for them, tempted to work towards being able to switch to one as Aztecs
>>2281754So many girls...
I'm still at 200 relations with France and Bohemia, I think I could just go all out with land grabs and antagonism in this war and still be fine

>>2281789anything less would be railroading
>>2281789You better believe it, you're living in one.
I had randomly the popup for a new reform and switched to chinese currency. It was super OP and gave like 20% trade efficiency or something. Then it just vanished and the game forced me to switch to something else. What the fuck happened? Did China exist somewhere for a couple of years and then they died again? Ming and Yuan are still both alive.
>>2281804>Jeohwaalright starting to think that guy spazzing out about gook devs the other day had a point
I wish there was an option to mass-build roads in only your country and not your subjects.Fuck them. I have no interest in annexing them, nor in investing a single piece of coin into their infrastructure. Should have picked a better place to exist, buddy

>>2281843Are you vulnerable?
what to choosethe only thing that makes me consider absolutist is the progress value, crown power i already have like +300% at this pointother than that constitutional seems much better
>>2281856Other than the things you would pick the better options for the other option is superior yes
>>2281856absolutist if you're going absolutist, libtard if you're going libtard.
>>2281844I still remember when it started happening in EU4. Randomly, for no reason at all, a free update included content for Korea that was better than 90% of the rest of the stuff in the game. Then they just kept adding onto it, most of it free too. Then you get Victoria3 where Korea is one of the few countries that has actual content, and randomly got involvement in a dlc related to Russia and Britain fighting over Central Asia too. EU5 makes it unrealistically strong, fully falling for the Civ meme. I'm sure CK3 has given it a lot too. At least I'm pretty sure the East Asia dlc for HoI4 ran out of time for Korea.
>>2281844>>2281869I don't care because Korean girls are cute.Call me when they start adding a disproportionately high amount of content for some african, middle eastern, or indian shithole.
>>2281875Korean girls are all plastic.
>>2281856>you can get parliament issues for -25%>at the point of the game where you already have all the laws you want, no longer use levies, have religious cbs, and don't need additional taxes
>>2281875>Korean girls are cuteYeah and they're also the worst radical feminists on earth and are the reason why SK is a failed incel nation
>>2281856Whenever you see the crow power icon, choose that option.
>>2281875It would be so fucking funny if a particular location in India got a lot of detailed content.
>>2281879sounds like a skill issuemaybe dont start as the great power if you have nothing to do in the late game
>>2281869Now the question is if they have a Korean or a Koreaboo foid on the team (or both)Korea itself is too cucked to care about being represented well in a map game, meanwhile Chinese players have killed the last two hoi4 dlc reviews WITH NO SURVIVORS
>>2281856+25% crown power at that point is mostly redundant +5% satisfaction for all estate is much betterparliament requests for 25% support is nice too
>>2281883You can start as OPM and have all of that well before age of absolutism
I think a patch broke the Western Schism.Should I just start a new run?

>>2281910>do anything the chinks dislike and millions of them reviewbomb youLiterally nothing wrong with this, unironically.
>>2281910Japan has more of it's traditional culture left compared to Korea, where Buddhism is a minority religion and they get both atheist feminism and puritan Christianity coming at them from both sides
>>2281924Not really, they made their traditional culture illegal in 2014.
>>2281927QRD?
>>2281910>Why is Japan uniquely free from this bullshit?Take a look at Japanese social media and you'll quickly find out they're not free from it either
>>2281927Was it the feminist shaman's doing backseat driving the prime minister?
>>2281928A common misinterpretation where people believe they made Junior Idol Gravure videos (teenagers in swimsuits) illegal around that time. Really they just made some vague new law, probably because the UN was harassing them. A lot of weird stuff did happen around that point in time in Japan though, I think their leftist party may have also been in power at the time too.
I kinda like how since Timur is oddly passive the Mongol hordes of the middle east just kind of continue existing until endgame when they would have all been dissolved 30 years after game startmore often than not in my games the Jalayrids remain a regional power the whole time, it's pretty funny and basically only possible due to the start date and nothing elsesame for pagan lithuania
>>2281875I wish I could know what a korean girl looks like because they make their face 90% plastic. Seriously even chinese make fun of koreans.
i wish the game would be realistic and allow me to have 100 wives, 1 from each culture. You could still apply the child limit, whats the issue
>>2281304You're a retarded American, because otherwise you'd know that you can't go 3 villages deep in any direction without learning new regional terms that you've never heard before in all of Europe.
>>2281944There's a child limit?
There is this foreign china market where I have capacity, advantage and yet there is still no trade going on. Manual also doesn't work. Is this because of the "Influence from China" event currently going on? There is nothing in the event log that would explain this. I also checked the country panel for Ming who is the naval hegemon if they embargo'd me again but that is also not the case from what I can see. My trade is in ruin and the event causing my estates to hate me is starting to make me go bankrupt. Running out of options.

>>2281965But the legitimacy...

very distant
>>2281956That was *one* of them. No sense in lying, is there?
>>2281954You've got to do all the religious researches and at the end you can remove the Aztec government reform that disallows taking land in war
>>2281924"puritan Christianity" please keep your mouth shut if you're just playing word salad.I bet you liked Game Of Thrones and that's where your "understanding" of any theology begins and ends.
>>2281942Muh sandbox tho! Zero depth to the game, just a map painter with some new mechanics. Gotta love it.
Moments that feel really good:-When your GDP grows enough that you have positive income even with Stability and Legitimacy sliders maxxed out-When your GDP grows enough that you can have all expense sliders at max and still make money, letting you wage war freely-When your GDP grows so much that you have income even with negative Stability or Legitimacy or both negative at the same time-When noble estate power drops below 10%Clicking the Mass Build RGOs button lategame and seeing your country covered in progressing build icons-Hitting enough pop promotion speed that buildings you build get employment almost instantly-Getting enough ships for your Patrol The Seas fleet to start visibly moving around spreading maritime presence-Saving money before you tech the next tier of roads and mass upgrading your entire nation's transportation network with one single click-Getting good clean borders
>>2281982The diarrhea scene was an epiphany for me
>>2281924>Japan has more of it's traditional culture left Weeb. If you really want to doompill yourself, read about how much of their "traditional" culture today is WW2 and post-WW2 retconning. Oftentimes explicitly oriented for foreign consumption. They're as bad as the chinks when it comes to historical wewuz-ing, just with no Cultural Revolution to smash all the old buildings.

>>2282038Right, I'm sure its a coincidence that it was mostly merchants converting to the version that allows usury and its was the countries too far away to influence or benefit from the pope (beyond paying him taxes) that converted to the version that lets them ignore the pope. And reversely so for catholics of course. Everyone that wasnt a dirt farming peasant was min-maxing benefits of the faith they chose or encouraged

>>2282099but enough about the United States
corruption but backwards
>>2282107That isn't really saying anything. Every country has schizos. Also>In 2024, reporters from Southern Weekly tried to contact Chinese scholars of classical studies to ask them to talk about their views on the Western Pseudohistory Theory, but most of the scholars refused to be interviewed, and most of them said that they did not want to waste their time with these absurd remarks. One professor, who asked to remain anonymous, said that the theory did not "respect basic historical facts" and did not "reason with you";[8] Gao Fengfeng, a professor at Peking University, was the only one willing to be interviewed under his own name, and said that the believers are committing a reverse onus clause>The Chinese government has never formally endorsed the theory,[23] and it faced repeated criticisms from state-run media organizations. For instance, a September 2019 article in the People's Daily criticized the theory for its unfounded arrogance towards other cultures,[24] while a June 2025 article in Xinmin Evening News criticized its outlandish claims and its inability to provide a credible alternative to the conventional historiographyIt seems like their version of Flat Earthers?
>>2282078sucks to be youi started as a 1 province shithole and im having a blast, never used the 5th speed after the first 15 years
>>2282109Chivalric code was bullshit as well tbf. A lot of human history is the newly-minted upper class coming up with retroactive justifications for them being noble or wealthy and doing their best to pretend like it wasn't "oh my granddad was really good at killing Germans and during the Battle of Savigny the king noticed how absolutely covered in German blood he was and gave him a fief"
>>2282086>literally shitting and pissing on Constantine XI Palaiologos You may as well just embrace Islam at this point buddy.

>>2282112This is corruption straight up. Also proper corruption mechanics when? Maybe with the Byzantine dlc?
>>2282125not that im aware
>>2282121>food rituals and eating etiquettethese have been a thing since like 700 AD, anon, think of things like the tea ceremonyit just happens that they eat lot of sushi now so it gets incorporated into that
>>2282121no shit, raw fish couldn't be transported inland and be kept safe to eat raw before refrigeration. current "traditional" kyoto style sushi is salted, and obviously, all preserved fish used to be salted anyway.
>>2282135>"Consuming fermented rice in various forms"if you lower the goalposts of determining how traditional something is to that point, then commie blocks are traditional too because communal housing has been around in various forms since the start of civilization>disneylands are traditional because humans have been building places for gathering and amusement since forever

I'm glad you were born normal. I was born an ugly, retarded manlet. It took me a long time to come to terms with that but the final black pill is your height and jaw shape literally determine the kind of life you get to live. I can never be in a relationship so why should I even grind to make money? Not to mention no one takes me seriously in the professional world either.There were opportunities for me to succeed like I could have finished school and gotten a job in some tech company where there are other ugly autists but now that ship has sailed and since I'm mid aged now there's no point in trying anyways. Plus my parents are sort well off and after my grandparents die they're probably gonna retire on the inheritance and won't be able to boss me around as much either since they're too old.The way I see it I just need to fuck around at another dead end job for a few years max then I'll be able to skim off the top of their money until I die.Anyways since no one wants to talk about 1.0.9 vs 1.0.10 I guess I'll just play 1.0.9 so I dont risk my computer or getting hacked or anything
>>2282204The price of a good gets divided among the estates in that province, and that wealth can either be used by the estates to buy goods, used by the estates to build buildings, or taxed away from themas an example, say you're playing as a single city locationthe estate power in the provinces is 25% noble, 25% burgher, 25% laborer, 25% peasantthe province makes 12 gold from its rgothat means each estate gets 4 ducatsthe city also has buildings making 20 goldeach estate gets 5 goldso every estate there gets 9 goldwhat the tax slider is determines how much of this gold you takelets say 4 is spent on needs, 4 is taxed away, and 1 is their profitwhen they have enough gold saved they will build a buildingwhay building they build is dependent upon their satisfactionif they are unhappy they will build bad buildings that solely benefits themif they are happy they will build good buildings that benefits the state

>>2282220Oh right yeah that makes sense>>2282224Thanks for explaining anon. It seems weird that they went with such a complicated system. Was this how it worked in EU4?
>>2282196fair enough
>>2282226>It seems weird that they went with such a complicated system. Was this how it worked in EU4?The biggest complaint with EU4 was that there was nothing to do in peace time, the second biggest was that it was too arcadey. So they actually listened and fixed both of these issues, which is the reason EU5 is such a big deal and has blown every other GSG out of the water despite it's glaring faults.
i dont know where all these screenshots of nigs in europe came from, probably player made ones, i cannot find a single non european monarch in europe in 1670there is however an armenian dynasty ruling over ethiopia the last 150 years
>>2282224Stellaris and Vicky walked so EU5 could run. Imagine Paradox trying to do this 5 years ago, the game would lag to unplayability before reaching 1500nu-Paradox has gotten really good at using dark magic to optimize their pops calculations I remember reading a Stellaris devblog about how the game used to calculate income every single day even though you only got money every month, and they smoothed out a ton of lag just from changing it to calculate income right before the monthly tick

>Finally, Timur invaded Anatolia and defeated Bayezid in the Battle of Ankara on 20 July 1402. Bayezid was captured in battle and subsequently died in captivity, initiating the twelve-year Ottoman Interregnum period. Timur's stated motivation for attacking Bayezid and the Ottoman Empire was the restoration of Seljuq authority. Timur saw the Seljuks as the rightful rulers of Anatolia as they had been granted rule by Mongol conquerors, illustrating Timur's interest with Genghizid legitimacy.>In December 1402, Timur besieged and took the city of Smyrna, a stronghold of the Christian Knights Hospitalers, thus he referred to himself as ghazi or "Warrior of Islam". A mass beheading was carried out in Smyrna by Timur's soldiers.>With the Treaty of Gallipoli in February 1402, Timur was furious with the Genoese and Venetians, as their ships ferried the Ottoman army to safety in Thrace. As Lord Kinross reported in The Ottoman Centuries, the Italians preferred the enemy they could handle to the one they could not.Man it's fucking insane how for hundreds of years the dynamic of the world was that every once in a world some guy in Central Asia would chimp out and random countries would just get ground into dust. Apocalyptic shit. Are there any good books about Western and Central European preparation for Mongol invasion before Genghis died and the horde turned back? It must have seemed like the end times.

Centuries ago, the land of the Rus' was united under a single banner and ruled from the legendary city of Kyiv. But the Mongol hordes advanced from the great steppe, pillaging and burning as they went. Even great Kyiv itself could not avoid this fate. In terror, our people fled north into the hinterlands we today call Russia.Now a new, arrogant northern city is on the rise. Its ruler envisions a new Rus' — A Rus' centered in Moscow and not Kyiv. But we Ruthenians will not allow pretenders to claim the legacy of our forefathers! Kyiv shall rise once again, and so too shall the Rus'!

>finally got enough plutocracy from random events to form a republicI think putting peasants on your council is the way. You have a chance to get an event where they get rich from council connections and you get 10 plutocracy. 95 plutocracy is still a pretty ridiculous requirement.
Genuine question, if Poland was a shithole why did all its neighbors want its land? I know eu5 resources are not exactly accurate to irl and you don't get all the nuances of terrain and geography from looking at a map but>Mostly just flat terrain with forests>No great deposits of precious metals or ores>Borders the Baltic economic region but so does everyone else, doesn't control any major waterway the way Denmark doesWere ancient Germans, Swedes and Russians just mappainting?

>>2282346free real estatebefore industrial revolution economic growth meant getting more people and land poland proper was decenteast was a wasteland, that's the reason why russia tried to maintain a puppet PLC instead of directly annexing shit like austrians and prussians wanteddidn't work out in the end since poles kept chimping out and prussians and austrians got the juicy parts before napoleon rocked their shit
>>2282345i wonder how much more or less money will i make on trade if i reform, i have about 4000 trade income atm
>>2282357Yeah but is Polish land particularly valuable for farming? I only know parts of Ukraine, southern Russia, northern Central Asia is part of this geographical belt that has some sort of really good farming soil
if i embargo someoneand he has multiple marketsand a few of my locations are in his marketwhat happens?

>>2282343Vassalizing a state through war, diplomacy or union then after 10 years and with good relations you can "diploannex" them integrating them into your nationNahuas are free to vassalize their neighbors, so this is the only way to grow until you remove the Altepetl government reform by going through the religious reforms like the other anon said

This has a direct impact on Chinese policy.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wolf_warrior_diplomacyIt's okay to admit you were under-educated on this topic. It would actually be the mature thing to do.

>>2282376Nationalism isn't a bad thing if it's used as a force to improve a nation. In China's case it's not that though, it's desperately trying to keep the victims of their stagnating economy on side by pandering to their retardation, like claiming Rome didn't exist.

>>2282452In 1336 the Agricultural Revolution happened when the Dutch scientist Galileo discovered the food duping glitch, multiplying food supply globally thousands of times greater than what it used to be
>>2282447oh..
>>2282452the peasants use the market system. but they generally break even. tribespeople don't use the market at all. so they automatically break even by default.
>>2282447why do nobles eat 20 food?

>>2282521doesnt this bleed legitimacy?
le sigh
>>2282517So let me understand what you think is happening here. You think Chinese state media is saying their own scholars, that they even made a point of saying meet all official standards, are wrong? You think they'd criticize their own educational system? You clearly don't have much experience with authoritarian regimes if you think they would actively call their own educators retards.What has actually happened is a fringe group of Chinese hypernationalists claim ancient Greece didn't exist because it destroys their world view that all civilization stems from China, the government is forced to pander to these retards to keep them on side so puts out an official article in its state media that many respected scholars agree with them.>>The review, commissioned by NHS England and published in April, called for better psychological support, noting young people struggling with their gender had higher rates of mental-health problems and neurodiversity such as autism and ADHD or childhood traumaThat's the media quoting a review by a medical board. Not the state media directly alleging many scholars support something. The difference is the BBC are just quoting something that already existed independently of them, the Chinese media are themselves inventing hypothetical learned people to promote the view that the theory is correct.

I'm not going to elaborate because every time I do people just think I'm meming, but I legitimately believe with every fiber of my being that Japan is the successor to the Roman Empire today.

>>2282637Makes sense to me. Clearly ungern-sternberg would be the inheritor to russia (and therefore rome) when he conituned to fight for the empire long after the romanovs where killed off and everyone else gave up, and since he married a manchu princess, she clearly would inherit it from him after he died. And since the japanes ruled manchuria in the end, clearly they inherit the title of rome

who cares how many casualtiesits all justpixels
Court languages.
>>2282649Alright, so rightly or wrongly western europe co-opted the mantle of "Rome" with Charlemagne. I'm not going to get into >H>R>E memes about it, the point is from that moment onwards they deemed themselves as inheriting the legacy of Rome, and this applies to every Western European power. France, Britain, Spain, Italy, their elites all focused on a Latin education and truly believed themselves to be inheritors of the mantle. That is equally if not more so true for the USA. Remember, most of the early presidents really bought into this, look up how many studied ancient Greek and Latin. It wasn't just a tenuous link, they imbued themselves in this idea of their civilizations as being the continuation of this Western tradition.Now how does Japan factor into this? Well Japanese "civilization" isn't really Japanese. From Meiji onwards they adopted this Western civilization, Japan tried to (and in many ways succeeded) to out-west the west. Their culture became another extension of this Western culture inherited from Rome.But then after WW2 the culture of the West changed while Japan's stayed the same. The West became solely focused on finance capital, to the exclusion of all else. The West has no culture now, the West's norms are greed, selfishness, immorality, and the pursuit of money above all else. That Western legacy of Rome is dead in the actual West, but what do we see in Japan? Higher education still being prized above all, the respected community spirit (high trust society), this is evident in all their activites. When you see them clean up after themselves at sporting events, that isn't because they're being forced to or some LARP about basic human decency, if it was everyone would do it. It's alive in Japan because they're Romans and they care about the SPQR. While the Western civilization has abandoned all aspects of their Roman heritage the Japanese still retain theirs'.>>2282656That's nonsense, you sound crazy.

>>2282717peasant buildings need buffed in general so we stop getting the retarded hyper urbanization/industrialization that shouldnt exist in this era and just slightly more organized and connected rural communitieswe need more buildings in general, unless there are cultural specifics, there are no noble buildings in cities outside of your capital, peasants have no buildings in cities outside of irrigation on certain RGOs and the clergy has fuck all as well for the most part.
>>2282722Market villages are already good, it's the fishing villages that are ass because fish is never profitableBut they buffed those too
>>2282723Every RGO is profitable.
>>2282402Foreign trade doesn't really hurt you except in the abstract "you could have done the trade yourself" type of way and even that is not very straight forward since you would have had to actually invest into the trade capacity yourself which may or may not be cheap if you lack the sufficient urban locations or are otherwise poor. The foreign traders probably won't have higher advantage than you so you get to pick the best trades and they have to do the less profitable ones. More trade in general could be considered good since importing stuff you don't make and exporting stuff you do make is good idea though of course ultimately it would be better if you did it all yourself. I would say that there's no explicit benefit in banning foreign buildings and most of the time in the early game it's a hindrance to you. If the foreigners get more trade advantage than you though, then you need to shut it down.Foreign trade used to be busted good before they fixed trade though since it allowed you to bypass the economic base inflation
temple is an allusion to the lodge in gameparadox implicate themselves
>>2282402Depends what kind of economy you want, sometimes you want foreign imports because your market lacks stuff so it's good for foreigners to have local trade capacity. And you want foreigners to export so it boosts the local price of goods you produce.But if you already own markets, the markets contain everything you need, and you have enough pops to consume it, it's better to ban all foreign trade so you can profit off extreme price fixing. Like if you planted something good in your new world colony, embargoed every other country so nobody could export it from the colony or import it to your home, then move it from colony (0.01 ducat price) to home (16 ducat price) and collect the profit (and send manufactured goods back)

Is the upgrade path from Barracks to Conscription Center broken? I can only upgrade from Regimental Camps

Why do my citizens need so much fine clothI've been mass building fine cloth buildings, they are being populated, I am producing more fine cloth but the demand keeps the sameWhere are they taking it allWhat do they do with it????
>>2282739I have already added male pregnancies and homosexuality to the game

>>2282744Same except I'm Greenland
>>2282741>"Defender of the Faith">argentina attacks british core territory>doesn't personally take the field to defend the faithwtf?
>>2282741What's retarded about that? The retarded part is that they once again failed to think even simple mechanics trough and thus this bug where you would get massively penalized for this law randomly was even in the game in the first place.>>2282750UK doesn't have that law
>>2282714Any Sinisized Muslim (aka Timur taking over China) gets 20% research speed
>>2282752research speed isnt that amazing when youre in china and have no institutions

How does institution spread work? Even when institution spawn is set to historical the new world and printing press spreads to China and India before most of western Europe.
When should I go decentralized and when should I go centralized?
>>2282780decentralize if you are vassalmaxxing, centralize otherwise
VGH... the TRVE Romans have retvrned to Rome...And taken enough slaves to staff two janny barracks all at once
>>2281989my favourite is them just completely making up samurai. never was a thing but it has so much cutural staying power it has stuck permanently
>>2282417euros can't explore the new world until they research a tech that doesn't unlock until Age of Discovery (1437). so you actually still have quite a while

Is it worth creating a new market in central/southern Anatolia as the Ottomans? A lot of those locations will only have about 50% market access in Constantinople

>>2282779yes the emperor of china learned about the printing press because a peasant in a village did. what's the problem?
>>2282791i mean its called noble marriage right so it's pretty self explanatory?
>>2282033This was giga broken on release because it had a really high chance of giving you someone from the crown estate. So if you were ever low on family members, you could just spam this and fill your cabinet with long lost nigerian cousins.

>>2282794Imagine the performance 100 years in. You'd be playing turn based by the 1700s.
what the fuck is this shitwho the fuck thought this was ok?someone needs to pay for the mess that is 1.0.10 AI
>>2282854they just need to add core desire and fix war exhaustion
>>2282854This is historical though, the pope is in Avignon, see?
>>2282854>what the fuck is this shitEUV >who the fuck thought this was ok? Johan>someone needs to pay You did
>>22828541.0.10 AI is awesome. The game went from nothing ever to happens to incredible levels of blobbing.
>>2282846>What would the EUV version actually even do significantly differentlymoney in low control areas doesnt just disappearestates have their own armies, buildings, property which they have control over and lend to you at a costother infrastructure besides roadsbut yes a lot of stuff is now in the base game
>>2282854This is lot better than before. I much prefer unrealistic and nonsensical blobbing to nothing ever happens gameplay. It's frankly lot more interesting for hyper tunis to blob into alps than it is for nothing to happen.
Somehow, it got worse
>>2280680Mackem bastard
>>2282862>>2282865ADHD ridden zoomer retards like you and your equally retarded muh nothing happens meme are the exact reason this shit happens.
>>2282871Yes the game is now significantly better than it was before, thanks to me. I don't need you to pay me but you must witness.
With a bit of movie magic Byzantium has been reborn and put under a personal union with the goths making Constantinople home.Giving all that land away is certainly not optimal, 2k base tax and almost 8 million pops have been given away to the AI. But I am larping so fuck it. All Gothia needs is the gothic sea. Let those roman larpers deal with that turk infested land.
Translated bibles is op as fuck.
>>2282714Orthodox is very strong because it gives you a 3 era advance for +0,05% population growth across the country, gives another +0,02% growth in one of the tenets/church laws, then there's a synod which gives you 10 research for every 75 religious influence
Final update, Europe in 1444This has been quite a rollercoaster of emotions
