trapped mouse posted:You could try playing England into Great Britain for a campaign where you eventually make infinite money. There are a couple of difficulties with this start, most notably the Surrender of Maine event, but there are ways to win that war, lose it strategically, or even bypass it completely it you don't mind exploiting game mechanics. I ended up starting this this afternoon. I surrendered Maine, allied with Brittany and Burgundy, and smashed the poo poo out of France. I just vassalized and then annexed Scotland, and I'm working my way through Ireland at the moment.

I really can't get around doing an effort playing as a HRE nation. That "Emperor gonna stand up for his babies" clause is such BS. I mean yeah obviously, but ugh.

I mean that one might be the most realistic thing about the in game HRE. Though the fact that this game has been out for 5 years and they haven't improved the HRE mechanics at all really is fairly silly.AnoHito posted:you are like tiny baby... Yeah give me 6 Siege any day. Though I didn't think it was actually possible to 6 out in everything, seems suspicious.

The Holy Roman Empire has not really been needing change, leading to it's relative state of persistence for so long. It functions well as an entity for keeping such a historically fractured region jumbled and offers an interesting challenge on expansion with varied approaches on dealing with it, so for all intents and purposes it has a job and it does it without huge complaint. there's more too, probably worth rereading the 40 dev diaries for this patch

Oh yeah that's ringing a bell. But didn't they say they were going to add like seven one time events for the diet to react to or something? Because that sounded real underwhelming.

Man, gating a relatively early claims giving mission behind a requirement to have 50 army tradition is rough. Guess I'll have to fight some other wars in the mean time.

I wanted some land from a neighbor and they had allied a powerful rival but they had also made a neighboring opm a tributary so I attacked that instead. Crushed them and forced them to break up their alliance. Later they just reallied years before the truce with me was over. Warscore well spent on a meaningful option.

Sounds like someone got greedy with the peace treaty. When you force someone to Annul Treaties in a peace deal they can make no new treaties with that country for 10 years, so you want to keep the peace deal at <49% so you can attack them again before they can re-up the alliance.

It feels like something which could be mentioned in a tooltip or small information box somewhere but I'm not certain. It says right there in the peace deal summary how long the treaty will last

Gold rush, I’ll graze my horse here... And here... and The Great Khan done so now I'm at 195 achievements - plan is to reach 200 by the time 1.30 hits, so no long campaigns. Took longer than I expected because A) Mughal formed and allied Ottomans and B) Ottomans while they were beaten to Crimea by me, decided to expand partly into Persia and rivaled me once I was the only choice. Ming in comparison is so easy these days, I didn't even have to cause Unguarded Frontier on them cause Oirat did for me. They stayed at 0 mandate till the end, but interestingly never imploded, which made things way easier for me. Ottomans can be beastly if left unchecked, but fight them on two fronts and they melt - I had my own armies in the Moldavia / Crimea area beelining for Konstantyinye, my other front with them was Persia, so I'd just siege down the balkans while they wasted time and manpower in the mountains occupying 0 warscore provinces. Add a euro ally for a third front and they just don't know what the gently caress. My last war with them was myself, Scandinavia (with Brandenburg PU), Bohemia vs. them and Great Britain, outnumbered 3-1 but they still got curbstomped (also because GB went to occupy my China land rather than, you know, defend their ally). Running out of simple/short achievements, tried Big Blue Blob before this one but I just couldn't core in time while having to fend off coalitions - any tricks?

I got the Sikh Pun achievement, which wasn't really all that hard. Starting out as Sirhind you have cores on all of Delhi, an amazing king-general and you get an event very early on which releases you, gives you 6 units and declares a reconquest war on Delhi. So long as Delhi doesn't have any strong allies you can full annex them and be well on your way. The kind of annoying thing about converting to Sikh is that you lose the ability to give land to the rajputs, because they only want hindu land. I was also hoping for some unique Punjab missions. You're pretty well loaded up on morale and military bonuses between Punjab ideas and Sikh bonuses.

Publishing's QA and PDS' QA were two separate entities. Thanks for clarifying, it's good to know

One of the first things you should do as Aragon is no-CB Byz, this cripples Ottman expansion pretty heavily. It's not to hard to retake Byz cores really early while the Ottomans are fighting the Mamluks.

This is a pro strategy for anyone who can get enough dudes there in time. It's only extra-appropriate for Aragon. With a bit of luck you may ruin the Ottos right away, if they declare on Byz before you close the force-vassalization peace deal and you have some decent allies, congratulations, you are now war leader in a defensive war with your allies on side and the Ottos all by themselves.

https://twitter.com/SirVogelius/status/1221798955698343936 I like this! Sure beats having to open the ledger and adding stuff by hand - assume it updates dynamically when allies are going to join or not. E: the pic cuts off but at the end it gives a breakdown of total inf/cav/arty breakdowns by potential belligerent, as well as their manpower, for both the enemies side and yours.

AAAAA! Real Muenster posted:Which one of Continent or Super Region determines where you can set up Trade Companies? If I'm Oman will I be able to TC in Indonesia/China/anywhere in the Asia Continent? My thought was always "If I am playing as a country that is of the mind to set up TCs, it is kinda odd that as someone in Arabia I can set a TC up right across the red sea because across the Red Sea is Africa, but I cannot set one up right across the Persian Gulf, or even on the other side of the Indian Ocean, because *reasons*" It's based on Super region, not continents. So Oman can do everything everywhere except the.. Think it's either Near East or Arabic Super region.

Maybe a little late, but a nice QoL for HRE would be a filter or sorting option for province occupation transfer. Right now it seems loosely based on region, but PUs seem to be randomly sprinkled through the list. Filter based on surrounding vassals or vassals visible on screen would be awesome, but would settle for alphabetical listing.

I'm at war with Tunis, which is the only war they are involved in, and they can happily run back and forth across Fezzan but not me. According to the diplo summary Fezzan is somehow granting "conditional military access" to Tunis and normal access to Tlemcen. Except Tlemcen isn't in the war, they got peaced out but apparently the access still applies?

Is there some known issue with pathing in the new version? I'm playing as Air, so I've been trying to use big European allies to bludgeon the hated Spanish, but nobody can seem to figure out how to do anything. The Ottoman units split up, with half coming down to my area of Africa (which is ??? because there were never any Spanish down there) and the other half danced around on the French border and never actually entered Spanish land. Then I tried to use the French to do the same thing, but the French couldn't crack "crossing the border" either. I keep winning because Spain never thinks to attack my land either, which is nice, but something seems weird. edit: this time I tried to use France against GB but instead they sent their entire army south through Morocco while their country got sieged down by Austria  They have multiple avenues into Austria through military access so it's not like they can't access Austrian land. I'm probably going to win this war too because while they're loving around I'm ticking up on the wargoal, but what on earth is happening
