I think it went more like "Do anything funny and we're burning your cathedral to the ground... with all of you inside... after raping you of course."

Genghis Khan making Asia his bitch is certainly impressive, but I also found it impressive how his offspring managed to keep things going as long as they did before trouble started brewing even after his death.BlackJosh posted:Honestly, it's more like if the plains indians all colluded together and conquered the Europeans settlers and settled natives in America. So you mean something like this?

Will France still have cores on all its requisite provinces? And if so, will countries be able to form it independent of the HRE (if you go that route that is)?

Given Italy's already-united status, will they be given impetus to become a colonial power ala Castille, England, Portgual, etc? Or are they going to zero in on the Pope only?

theblastizard posted:I like staying as a Shogun controlling all of Japan while cursing the Catholic Church for not trying to convert me so I could go on a Crusade through China. I love how there's little impetus for you to ever unify Japan at all once you become shogun because you can just declare war on everyone at will and take whatever land you wanted and there isn't a drat thing anyone can do about it after the fact. But no seriously, I hope Japan's gameplay is made sane again.

An alien UFO crash lands into a humble Cherokee village, assimilates the culture of the locals and, unable to get home, instead conquer most of the northern Americas and form their own country. The europeans will be in for quite a surprise when they make their way over this century! Okay, jokes aside, I'm just hoping for America to be shaken up a bit and made more interesting beyond being European cannon fodder.

Wiz posted:I'll be running a lot of hands-off games to test out my AI modules, colonization etc so ultimately I'd end up finding out what you had made before doing the actual playthrough. It's a cool idea but the hands-on modding approach I do makes it kind of impractical. How do you go about running a hands-off game anyhow? I mean, I could always play as Japan I guess but then I don't see anything that's going on outside of East Asia until halfway through the game. Maybe I'm just weird for being interested in just letting the AI do it's thing without actually trying to play the game

Pacho posted:Can unified Japan colonize Oceania or SE Asia? Im not really familiar with EU and I don't know if a non western country has to westernize before being able to colonize other places Any country in the game can colonize. The limiting factors are A)colonial range, which is dependent on Naval tech level and B) actually having colonists to send, which requires either a coastal COT, a Christian religion, or the 'Quest for the New World' National Idea. Given that Kyoto isn't coastal, Japan isn't Christian, and as far as I know their AI won't pick QFTNW over other ideas, straight colonization seems unlikely.

Burak is a badass and he knows it. When you smell blood in the water... Going toe-to-toe against Russia seems like a pretty good endgame for the EU3 phase. I wonder if Europe will end up getting more involved.

When trying to go for a badass army is it better to jack up morale or discipline? That's one element of the game I never quite grasped in all my playthroughs.

It's always fun to see a fight between the Netherlands and France where your 15k Dutch musket troops are making the 30k French men at arms evaporate. Westernizing as a backwater asian country is so amazingly broken and hilarious that I can never not do it. Routing 40k Chinese doomstacks with 2cav/5inf stacks never gets old.

Revolutionary Germany is awesome and all of Europe is awesome. I don't know if it was the modding or just dumb luck, but the development of Russia is quite remarkable. The AI usually just croaks when having to handle land of that size and scope but instead it managed to actually parlay its advantages into becoming a military/economic superpower. It's almost as if... Russia was actually player-controlled.

Yay this LP is back (soon). Looking forward to seeing what you've done with Victoria 2. I don't think it's a bad game system really, it's just not very engaging to play as is. Lots of autopiloting and such. Does the expansion improve on this any?
