I've noticed with recent patches that that no longer works, so I try and pull a force religion during war if I need someone to be my religion before vassalizing.

I'm not sure I would say hardcoded, but they do have a default religion applied in the country definitions. code:
If you have gone to the 1.13 beta patch this is no longer the case, and is a bug 1.13 patch notes posted:Which religion a released country/vassal gets is now based on the majority religion in their core provinces (with previous religion counting as 50% larger than it actually is). edit: fixed broken tables.

Just checked and it's every province, ouch... And you can't use the subject interaction to convert them for 50% liberty desire. That seems pretty harsh

How in the hell do you get off the ground as Lucca? I can't get a single start that doesn't involve one of the things happening: 1) Allying with Milan and/or Savoy to take down Ferrara or maybe Florence if I'm lucky, but they end up being called to other wars and overrun (army wise) before I can finish mine and I can't support the troops to even siege the capitals of either nation. 2) Allying with the Papal States and being shut down from expanding because it's considered a "Great Power" by France/Austria/Hungary and eventually getting crushed by dealing with the HRE land penalty (since I can't get Austria above the point where they don't ask) and the eventual encroachment of someone (Aragon, France, etc). 3) Allying with someone to take down Genoa but then losing the stepping stone into Asia as Crimea, Circassia or someone will take the opportunity to grab Genoa's holdings over there before I can get rid of the truce timer from picking up Scio. nessin fucked around with this message at 19:45 on Jul 7, 2015 |

If you're a big country like Castile or France or even a mid-range power like Brandenburg, you've usually got easy pickings nearby you can attack in 1444 or 1445 unless they get killer alliances, but if you're an OPM you really need to wait for an opportunity to strike, like Ferrara/Florence getting into offensive wars (or allied defenses) and getting beaten on. Of course, as you hinted above, the catch there is that you need to hurry the heck up and stop being an OPM so that a mid-range power or a big country won't decide that you're a tasty morsel to eat.

Trujillo posted:Can anyone tell me why I wouldn't be able to core these or is this a bug? You got overseas range to core those provinces, but because there's an enemy fleet blockading all your ports, the game thinks you can't reach Theodoro. Only fix is to try and have them revoke that blockade, so smashing the boats or faking them out to get them to move. It's a fun little side effect from the new "you can only take provinces you can core"-mechanic.

Across about a dozen, maybe 15, games (1.12/1.13) I've seen Byzantium successfully ally with Hungary and/or Poland a couple times to survive against the Ottomans or the Ottomans choose to go after Hungary first before collecting their cores. Probably one of those happened here, and weakened both Hungary and the Ottomans, so that when Venice went to war with them (happens about every game if the Ottomans scoop up Albania early) they probably gave some territory to the Knights and it escalated from there. The Crimean situation can also happen if Genoa gets lucky or Crimea gets weakened by the Horde and doesn't ally the Ottomans (or maybe they did in this case and that helped collapse the Ottomans). nessin fucked around with this message at 00:00 on Jul 8, 2015 |

Do I have some message setting turned off or is there no "Hey Protestantism is a thing now!" popup if you're not the first country to get it? Because if there isn't there should really really be one. I've missed being one of the first three countries to switch multiple times now despite checking the religion tab pretty regularly. I just want a center of reformation \/\/ Is it just the "When a country switches to a different religion" option? Or is there a Protestant-specific one that I'm not seeing?

Yeah, the start of the Reformation gets it's own special pop up, and then the appearance of Calvinists gets another. You must have turned it off somehow.

If I form the Kingdom of Italy and then go on to unite the HRE, will all Italian and German cultures be accepted? I've never done either so I'm not sure of the exact mechanics, but if so I think I found my next play-through.

Yeah, it's much more worth it for someone like Hungary or Bohemia who don't have a bunch of cultures in their union that they will lose when they form the HRE.

It happens quite a lot because it won't give you two of the same type of advisor, so when you fire a guy there are only three(four?) possible guys you'll get in exchange, so it's more noticeable when the magic of video game RNG kicks in and gives you the same dude. I've gotten 4 Spy Offense advisors in a row once, it's pretty annoying. You can kind of game the system because of it at least, although it takes quite a bit of money once you're hiring level 2/3 dudes. Like if you need a specific level 2 guy, leave level 1 and 3 advisors in your hiring pool that have different bonuses from him and just keep firing the level 2 guy over and over.

Lord Hydronium posted:How much of Genoa is actually in or near Genoa? Oh poo poo I didn't notice Genoa over there. They own some ugly-border provinces in genoa/provence area that's a clusterfuck of ugly ugly borders. It's like someone put Provence, Genoa, Burgundy, Switzerland, and a few other countries in a blender. Yeah this map is really special. I never play in that region so I do't know how it's "supposed" to look but I haven't even seen half of those countries before, let alone at that size. Also just off screen Egypt formed as well, except for Alexandria which belongs to Theodoro Lucky nations are off. At one point Venice only owned a few provinces in Italy, not Venice its self, which was owned by Styria which was a large power in the area and Austria was down to just 2 provinces. I'm not sure what happened there but even with lucky nations off, Austria just can't be kept down. I'm looking forward to starting a new game, poo poo got really weird on the beta patch with every OPM being 100+ dev. I really wish there was a dev mapmode and maybe a civilization "top 5 provinces" chart or something. Just before 1820 I got into a massive coalition war against most of europe, it was bad, I alone lost about half a million people. It was specially brutal because every allied german 1-3 province minor had like a 50+ unit stack they brought to the war due to their insane development.

Is the AI supposed to be able to call in allies 5 years after a war has started? I started a no-cb war with another country to tie up one of the ottoman's allies in a war on my side then started a war against the ottomans. After 5 years I white peaced that one and they immediately joined on the ottoman's side against me. I checked before I white peaced the other war and I couldn't call my own allies into the war against the ottomans because of the "30 months have already passed" Can defenders always call in additional allies or is this a bug?
