When promising land to an ally, does it count if the land goes to their subject nation? Specifically if I promise land to Castile, and their PU junior Aragon is the one who gets it, will Castile be satisfied or will they call me a dirty liar?

This has certainly been asked 2 to 3 hundred thousand times but why the gently caress do my enemies constantly get spawns of 2k troops when i attack them despite them having no piety and no prestige, yes they are Pagan and I am Norse pagan but everything i've read says they need to have 200 piety to spawn free troops and apparently that's a complete lie? Jesus christ what an annoying mechanic, especially since it doesnt tell you what the gently caress is happening.

I set up a Mingsplosion at the start of the game and Dali somehow managed to snag the mandate of heaven and then just sat on it for a couple of hundred years with their 5ish provinces. They even somehow managed to enact one mandate thing when I wasn't watching. But suddenly Ayutthaya declared for it, easily grabbed it and managed to hold on to it for several years before Wu (who always blobs the best) went to war over it. Wu were gaining ground when suddenly an event struck poor Ayutthaya for not being Chinese enough which among other things tanked their mandate down to zero. The one sided war ended in a curb stomp. Wu's glory was short lived however as despite all of their tributaries, prosperity and stability they had one huge rear end in a top hat neighbor who slowly tanked their mandate and then used the combat penalties to beat the poo poo out of them and take almost all of their coastal provinces.  It's very tempting to chain declare war on their tributaries one by one when the dumbasses will happily step in to defend them so I can snag some more land each time.

Taking religious gives you holy war casus beli, which is insanely good before you get imperialism if you’re surrounded by different religions. Also, with Copts for instance, you need to have some provinces be a certain religion, which means having high missionary conversion speed is good.

Countries' armies can cross a blockaded strait if they own the provinces on both side. You can still do gamey poo poo like taking Corfu and trapping a giant army there, if you own the province.

Not own, but control. So if you siege down Constantinople and Edirne during the war you can blockade those straits normally.

It worked in a different war and (I believe) it used to work a year ago or so but I guess I did have Constantinople and Edirne back then.

That's still two more than religious. I treat the tiny reduction in training time to be bad as well, a complete waste of the 400 mil point price tag. In my almost 1600 hours I can't remember ever being in a situation where I cared about that at all.

Hey, it's been a while since I played EU4 and I was wondering how drastic the changes were since Mandate of Heaven? I see we have a new expansion pack as well, is it worth getting?
