There's something borked with England's AI again. Wehn common sense first came out they would pepper the continent with troops, but now they just sit in london doing nothing. They declared a league war and the only reason we (the protestants) won, is because I am the player and I used my wiles to beat the AI. England bought one stack over, and then promptly noped the gently caress back to the isles for the rest of the war.

I'm playing my netherlands game and I just started colonising. The el dorado events are quite cool. Automatic exploration is cool. Protestant aspects of faith are cool. I like being able to bank points and switch based on what I'm dong. Like right now I'm just fully running the colonialism one with the expansion/quantity policy and my colonising is through the roof. Gonna run the expansion/exploration one too. The only thing is that most of the great powers are untouchable because they all like to ally one another now.

remember how you used to be able to enforce demands in the 90% range, sometimes even in the 80%? i'm so glad groogy has made this game better than it used to be

you need admin tech 10 for arabia. mamluks -> arabia is pretty fun and they have good ideas for both trade and combat but it's pretty dull because after the first war against the ottomans there's nothing in your sphere of influence that can remotely stand up to you so it's just a matter of bashing heads until you get bored
