This is, what, the third generation in a row that's had their leg lopped off? If it happens a few more times it'll become practically a rite of passage for all young kings of the dynasty, whether they need it or not.

PurpleXVI posted:I know that in EU4, most, if not all, Muslim nations at start get pretty heavily hobbled with a tech penalty due to being from a "worse" tech group than, well, Western Europe, really. Are there any similar penalties or imbalances in CK2? No. In fact, Muslims are conditionally better at improving their technology. Most notably, they can subscribe to the Mu'tazilite school of theology for an almost obscene boost to the Learning stat, which is one of the primary ways you earn/spread tech points. Plus, for most of the start dates, Muslim areas have better starting tech than the majority of the Christian world.

C C B A C Re: other regions - I like the idea of having something special/real crazy about Australia. It don't think I've ever seen get much attention in LP's so something to spice it up would be interesting. I don't have anything solid yet, but I'll think on it. E: Oh man, how could I forget ZearothK's Hansa LP? Now THAT was an interesting Australia. So, ok, Australia has memorably affected an LP once, but still.

I have no idea how hard it would be to make, but what about Australia being a lush jungle continent rich in resources instead of 90% desert? Like a mini-Africa, except with crazier wildlife and/or natives. I imagine you wouldn't have to change much in EU because the interior will be inaccessible anyways, the bulk of stuff would happen in Victoria when the technology to explore/settle the interior gets developed.

Look, digging up immense and ever-expanding quantities of gold is a no brainer. It's gold, everybody loves it, and having more is objectively better. There is absolutely no imaginable way that this could backfire, because more coins never hurt anyone and if some dumbass "economist" tries to tell you otherwise, just ask them how, exactly, too much money is a bad thing then laugh at all their made up words. And I personally guarantee it will never run out, either, no matter how much we dig up. Trust me, I'm a merchant.

I, Crazycrodude of the League of Merchants, propose the Make Al-Andalus avante-Garde Again Policy. This policy stipulates that we minimize our piety, enlist the aid of the Dhimmi, and take any other methods to reduce our tech cost that the Sultan deems within reason, so that we may always stay on at least the same tech level as our neighbors. Unless the nation is in crisis and needs the resources elsewhere, every effort should be made to become a world leader and maintain a higher level of tech than any neighbor, especially a Military edge over France. E:Question for Hashim: what tech group are we? Do we not have a Dhimmi Estate to appease/troll the Ulema with for that massive tech reduction?

Bonuses can be pretty rare. Some occasional National Ideas and government types have them, and low piety will give us a small bonus, but the only real reliable source is Humanist Ideas. The tolerance boosters in that group are strong enough that with a single idea you can eliminate all the problems with other religions/cultures unless you actively try and dick them over to cancel it out for some reason.

There's a limited number of building slots in a province, with the base value being 2 modified by terrain (extra slots for friendly terrain like farm/grasslands, fewer slots for arctic climates). Every 10 development also adds another building slot to the province. Most of our provinces can probably fit anywhere between 2 and 4 buildings at this point in the game, because development is relatively low and the terrain throughout most of our territory is neutral or +1.
