Hey Dickhead, you know how you were telling me that you don't reduce autonomy as merc repub? I'm reducing as Novgorod. .1% per month for being at peace.

That's the base everyone gets, maybe he just meant the government type doesn't have a bonus

I think if you reduced tradition to the point that you became a dictatorship then you would be reducing authority at absolute monarchy levels

All merchant republics are insanely strong thanks to the res publica stuff, and it's weird to me that they haven't nerfed it.

I remember when, to beat Muscovy as Novgorod, you had to take out like 300 loans, ally with Lithuania and PRAY that the PU doesn't fire in your war. Now you just ally with Poland and support Sweden and then easily walk all over Muscovy with your superior morale troops while oyur allies kindly siege everything for oyu.

What's the pro way to play CK2 tribals? I have a lot of fun as an actual tribal liege but I have no idea what to do once I have a bunch of land, because I'm insanely poor and I never get lucky and capture anyone worth anything while raiding. Rushing merchant republics in the ~40 years it takes to get the money kinda works, but then I have zero levies and get curbstomped. Am I supposed to carve out a realm, form the king title, and then just deal with the gavelkind horror while I build up enough money to city/castle all my holdings???

I have been trying to do a Merchant Republic Scandinavian Empire from the early starts and its loving impossible for me because I'm a tard, so now I'm just doing Republic of Gotland like a loser. Probably a lot easier to do, though. Just make Erik the Heathen revolt, convert when he asks me to, and then overthrow his stupid rear end when it's a good time.

The worst part about doing a russia game, is that have to form russia immediately because of those awesome claim events, but your claims for forming it will probably expire.

This goes for basically every formable that gives claims. You form them and then since you already probably swallowed all the small people you can never actually press most of them.

I meant as Novgorod. You only get the cool claim events as Russia or Muscovy, so you gotta form Russia before a certain time if you want them, rather than waiting for the perfect moment to poo poo on your enemies.

Russia took 100s of years to conquer all the poo poo you get claims on, but you only get 25 to do it.

Doesn't the claim pause when you're at truce or did they get rid of that?

i had the situation where it would expire the same day the truce did and you can't declare war the actual day of expiration so I was hosed.

but yes it does delay expiration during truce.

its the same thing with hindustan. netherlands has that problem too i guess but since you only need like 5 provinces but you get claims on ~12, it's not nearly as big of a deal. ireland is probably the only one without that problem.
