I found it, I found the bug in this DLC Separatists of your country inherit you when they enforce demands. I just became a Feudal Monarchy with a new king/lovely ideas thanks to Cyprus revolting form the Mamluks. What the gently caress happened to patriot rebels

How, I have to respend monarch points to get my good idea sets back and have no legitimacy edit: didn't even notice my monarch points getting drained. Great waste of 4 hours by ruining this ironman save Average Bear fucked around with this message at 22:57 on Jun 9, 2015 |

OneTwentySix posted:I don't understand what's going on here, were you Ottomans and suddenly became Byzantium? I was Byzantium, Byz Separatists in Mamluk owned cyrprus revolted, they presumably became the BYZ tag as well and thus I became them. So I had Cyprus's idea group choices, their monarch points and randomly genned monarch.

Monarch point costs are way too demanding. It's 1550 in my current game and I have 2 ideas unlocked. Not groups, ideas. I'm a bit behind in tech and struggling to keep up. That's not even mentioning the province improvements, which there is absolutely no room for and I haven't touched.

aeglus posted:Overall I haven't really felt like anything costs too much. I'm always ahead in tech and just tossing extra points to improve provinces. I think it's mostly because North Italian provinces are so rich and Ambrosian Republic is practically the best government type other that Dutch. Also for a fun new mechanic, you get to vassalize the pope and then force him to change religion. Why is Ambrosian Republic good? Just wondering for my Milan game

Nitrousoxide posted:Expanded just a little bit too quickly as Milan and got coalitioned by the pope, Genoa, the swiss, and Hungery. Then two other countries declared war on me when I was down on my luck. Had to give up 100% warscore to the pope et al but turned around and beat the other two italian minors who attacked me while I was being gangbanged. Dude, Milan/Italy rocks. I've been constantly expanding inside of Italy and just laughing off the coalition wars the HRE throws at me every 15 years. With France and Aragon as your friends, enemies just melt. I'm sure the bad AI doesn't help them any though, because they sure do love throwing every army onto a mountain Swiss province, which is my march. Having a blast. Honestly I'd be content with just expanding to Italy and playing tall. CS makes it a pretty fun experience.

Traxis posted:Can't you just dissolve the alliance before declining the call to arms? It used to work to avoid the penalty, I'm not sure if they ever changed it. It's fixed in the next hotfix. Also 25 prestige is something you need to weigh against when declining a call. AI is affected by it too, when you get attacked and they don't come to help.

Demiurge4 posted:Gonna try out a Byzantium game today for the Rome achievement. Any tips on how to proceed in Common Sense? Restart until you get a dip rep advisor. Austria has to rival Venice, Poland has to rival ottos (v common). Begin by removing all your forts and putting both maintenance to 0. Make 3 infantry regiments and after that spam galleys. Improve relations with Austria and Poland. Don't hire advisors until just before you can RM Poland. It adds 5 points to your score to accept deals. It helps to fab claims on Bulgaria, Austria won't ally you until post ottoman war. RM Poland ASAP and you can ally right after that. After polands truce with Ottos expire Nov 1449, you can attack them. Only do so if you have enough galleys to block the straits, and do it while they're in a war in Anatolia. Even if you can't defeat their navy, it will give Poland time to consolidate their forces in Greece and stand a chance at fighting. After that, occupy all of the Balkans. Usually Poland and friends cross the straits and beat back the ottomans, so you can take all of the Balkans in one war with 80+ war score. After you win the first war, get ready to fab claims on Serbia and Walachia. Make Walachia your vassal and just annex Serbia. Wipe up any other minors sitting around. Now finish allying the Austrians and attack Venice for their Greek and Croat provinces. If Venice is allied to like Castile, consider beefing up your navy first. After you have everything between Hungary and the Hellespont controlled, you basically just finish off the ottomans and attack Hungary when you can without Austria getting involved. Release Transylvania and make a new Hungary. Keep the Croatian provinces. You'll quickly become the worlds top power. Edit: forgot to mention, develop Constantinople with admin once to up your force limit to 11. That is like a break even point to get allied Average Bear fucked around with this message at 18:25 on Jun 19, 2015 |

Here's a pro Brandenburg start: rival mecklenberg at the beginning and vassalize/ humiliate them when you go to war with TO since they always ally them. Then diplovassalize the OPMs around you. Anhalt, lunenberg, and saxe-lunenberg are good You'll have 100 pp for like 50 years

Say I'm BYZ and expanding into the levant. If I make a two province vassal, like Lebanon, extending from the Mediterranean to the wasteland desert... Would the provinces below be distant overseas and cheap to core? Could I take all of North Africa like that?

Elendil004 posted:Somethings things work out. Joined Austria in a minor HRE war just to keep them as allys, my entire army is busy destroying...ahem...turning Morocco into a trade paradise. So this little 6 stack marches in from Hesse or some poo poo, as I get a popup to either lose 10 prestige or spawn a stack of rebels in Genoa. Sucks to be the invading army. Probably for the best, since the rebels could maybe siege that province.
