The hosed up borders came from digging a straight line to the holy sites of the Slavic faith through Germanic tribes so I could reform the faith and call holy wars on Old Slav rulers without wasting my ruler's Subjugation.

Hungary would have been assimilated, but in 810-ish it switched from Avarria to Pannonia and a Reformed Slav took the crown. Right now I'm trying to convince an angry Tengri vassal to overthrow the Pannonian king, then after he's done I'll subjugate him and that will be that.

The best way to be a dickhead to Austria, is to let the Styria rebels sieze a big chunk and then release them as a vassal, and destroy Austria as sub-Austria.

Or you could just wash over Austria because you have more troops than them after Succession before even taking your vassals into account but hey, whatever.

I'm just saying that I really hate how the Games threads for CK2 and EU4 has someone asking how to beat the Abbasids or the French every 5 pages and there's always at least 2 or 3 clowns saying you should just cheat to beat them.

I can understand cheating yourself a slightly wealthier start or something, because being a tiny weak poor nation is brutal in both games... But there's so many dudes talking about their epic WC attempt where they cheated themselves to have triple anyone else's money and troops or whatever.

Nation Designer, auto-exploring, new Meso and South American religions (which are extremely loving strong if you can stand to play a New World nation and pass all the reforms, BTW), and uhhhhhhhhhhh i think that's it actually. I don't know if you can play the randomized mode with normal tags or the completely-random mode without the DLC.


Auto-exploring is kind of gay if you are playing a New World nation (you can't use the land auto-explore if your capital is in a colonial region), but the sea auto-exploring is very nearly worth it all on its own. It's great. I think they nerfed the speed of it or maybe just the mods I've been playing lately did. It used to be lightning fast and I'd have everything in my colonial range completely explored within a decade. The upside of auto-exploring being limited by your colonial range is that there's no more Portugese ships chilling in China in 1500, and combined with the Treaty of Tordesillas feature, the AI tends to focus on one area at a time instead of colonizing provinces at random and making the whole world a clusterfuck.
