More and more Paradox is justifying their subscription model by making their pay-as-you-go model awful.

that's not very fair. you could simply take the money you were going to spend on eu4 dlc (bad) and spend it on another video game (good). doesn't even have to be a new video game. maybe drive down to the vintage stock and buy a donkey kong country on snes catridge that's started to turn yellow.

I will buy the dlc eventually (FFXIV Island is killing my time) but I am 100% part of the problem.

I've played like 6k hours of eu4 so I'll buy this dlc too. And play more.

Also Anbennar will on occasion include DLC features.

Yeah tbh 60% of my motivation for buying the humble bundle pack was to get all the missing features for Anbennar.

I've got an urgent question: What's the pun in "Vasa or Wettin?"? I've been trying to figure it out and I just can't.

Idk the pun but my extensive google research tells me that apparently the picture for the achievement is referencing a popular brand of swedish crackers  I guess the Vasa is the crackers and the Wettin is the sausage?

It's kinda... bread crackers, they function as bread. No idea about the pun.

Bread, but with a much crunchier sound.

# Units - Regiments that reach 0 strength or 0 morale during battle will now retreat immediately. - Daily morale damage is now percentage of enemy's max morale. - Insufficient Support cavalry penalty now increases in steps and is based on all front row units. - Reintroduced 0.03 daily morale damage to deployed troops in battle, but only reinforcements get affected by the modifier. - Backline can only reinforce 2 regiments per day, +1 per 2 maneuver pips of commanding general. - Rebalanced artillery pips to be more tactically interesting and contribute less to prolonged battles. Hopefully this makes morale actually useful again. Seems like good changes, but we'll have to see in practice. - Slackening Recruiting Standards now only gives one year of manpower instead of two. RIP - Spy Network reduces AE now by 30% at 100% Spy Network instead of the previous 10% AE reduction. Cool - Being over Governing Capacity now decreases Administrative Efficiency. For every 2% over Governing Capacity you lose 1% Administrative Efficiency. Also, removed the Core Creation Cost penalty for being over Governing Capacity, as overlapped with the new Administrative Efficiency malus. Also RIP

Spy network is already pretty good for war enemies, it gives you a big siege ability buff. Caps at 25% for 100 network iirc

I like that the Statehouse will nearly cancel out the drawback to Expand Infrastructure for a net gain of 5 gov cost per province you use it in youll probably never want to expand infra more than once per province unless you have gov cap coming out of your ears

Defensive increasing max attrition is interesting, and will absolutely make invading Russia even more of a slog than it is now. Particularly relevant for Anbennar and all the factions with attrition boosts, like the Kobolds.

A bunch of missions use a gif for the little image, too. Whichever cabal of foulest necromancers they've got developing new gui tricks is genuinely a little scary.

When the Gold Kobolds find Balris they also get an animated event.

League war started, so was about to close the game then came up with an idea for the rest of my run. Should be an achievement but can't think of a good pun for it. Which would probably explain why it isn't. Piratus Maximus?   Shoutout to the Erie Federation finishing 3rd.

Question about 1.34: - Being completely blockaded now decreases Global Trade Power and Trade Steering by 75%. What happens to landlocked countries? Do they get that penalty?
