Hey, Asswholes. It's been the 14th for like a whole day now. Where's Charlemagne.

Is it not loving out yet? I'm super pumped and want to play this as soon as I get home in 7 hours.

I assume your first play is going to be as Charlemagne himself right Knuc?

Uh, yeah dudes, that's what the kingdom is called in the game, I understand getting confused if you're not a real mapgamer though.

I'm sorry for getting snippy, It's been the 14th for a while and Charlemagne still isn't loving out.

if you reconquer enough as the byzantines you can reform the roman empire in the medieval period

and eventually port that to eu4

That's not the same though.... Guess I'll have to wait until I get eu4 then.

i'll do a charlemagne and carloman game to experience the Epic Story and then i'll do something fun like tribal ireland

Caliphate strikes back, Outside Bet nad all the oher ones that require a specific character start are cool. The only one like that is the Carloman one and it's something I have zero interest in doing.

I like Side Bets and the Caliphate Strikes Back because those are cool goals. Also some of the goofy ones like Dwarf Fortress

They should do chieves for Karling comeback in 1066, Norse reformation as Erik the Heathen and form Kingdom of England as Alfred the Great.

Empire of the Sun would be a cool tough one except Zunbils aren't going to have any religious mechanics so who gives a rip.

I wanted to play a Jewish empire so much after their expansion but their flavor is just so goddamn bad. :(

And paradox was like "that's history, bitches" but then they had sunset invasion.

I wonder if King of Saxon tribes would be a cool game or it's just waiting to be stomped by the Franks.

Surprised there's not a chieve for smashing the Franks when starting as the King of Lombardy or something

Oh yeah there's gonna be new early period clothes (iron crowns and weird goofy hats for emperors) but the stream wasn't clear if they're part of the Charlemagne DLC or if they're separate??

In the description for the DLC it says it includes that stuff.

I still dunno how to get over 90% tp for that Venice chieve. I actually luckily got a province to turn reformed so I could abuse trade fervour, but my power in constantinople is getting worse and worse as the hre minors get extra merchants and I dunno how to make them gently caress off.

You know they'll come out with like 10 optional cosmetic packs anyways and I'll buy them all on release.

It's me, I'm part of the problem.

I have all the good trade ideas that increase power and I dunno how I'm gonna get 90 tp in constantinople. I just attacked the Ottomans for shits and giggles to see what sinking their fleet would do and there are so many others pulling trade that it barely did anything.

It's cool how the best trade policy requires plutocracy and aristocracy. I think it would pwn for an England that switches to republic in the Cromwell event.

:shrug: the jews are really badly thought out in general. i love that the jewish courtiers you get always hate the gently caress out of you because they are a different religion and culture. so even though you do the honor of allowing them to actually serve on your court they loving hate you and plot against you. the jews suck rear end, bad.

I'm glad to hear someone else say it too. All the discussion I've seen before on the Jews post Sons of Abraham went along the lines of "Yeah, the Jews suck for real though so it's totally fine!"
