In my current Mamluks game Byzantine got utterly stomped into the dirt as usual. But that's just my one game. I'm really glad the piety events are gone and that the new ones are, so far, less full of book burnings and xenophobic lynch mobs.

The Mamluk government is getting a bit annoying with how it resets my legitimacy to 20 everytime the ruler dies and the new guy takes over. But at least the replacement is young and has +2 admin. I'm not really missing heirs or consorts that much (even though it makes the Sunni bonuses completely worthless). edit My fourth ruler didn't tank my legitimacy, for some reason.  Something weird with the decision to form Egypt. It says Mamluk Government with a red X in front meaning I need to have that government to form Egypt but I do have it, I started with it. If you have to have another form of government the tooltip should be fixed to reflect it. Fintilgin posted:Did you try the old standby of deleting the map cache and letting it recalculate?

I really wish money you get from peace deals wouldn't show up as income in the upper left corner (or in the economy screen I think). It's just a one time thing, unfortunately. The event that gives you 50 pop in a current colony or 200 in a nearby new one popped and I thought I was making enough money to run with the extra colony but the next monthly tick my money started draining like crazy so I had to make giant mothballs to put my forts into.reignonyourparade posted:Hey that's not fair, it's ALSO for custom nation gimmick games to take advantage of siberian frontiers in the new world.

So the reason why the AI cheats with forts is because when war is declared they begin their movement before the monthly tick starts up the zones from being mothballed? That would explain a lot.

Ah. But does the AI declare war on day 1 and moves on day 1 and forts unmothball on day 1 but don't project zones until day 2?

I kinda like that the Mamluks aren't instantly folding the minute the Ottermans are looking at them. They're still utterly screwed as the Ottomans have much better military from superior national ideas, development and the whole Janissary events backing them up. But it's nice that it takes a little longer.

Awesome!  Have you done something about how the game will sometimes go into super lag chug mode despite flowing like melted butter just before, and after? It doesn't happen often at all and I haven't seen it so far in the current patch but it happened once in the last patch. I can't remember if it randomly stopped or if I just saved&quit and it was fine when I resumed playing later.

Did you crush any before all 3 had spawned? The game might not flag it properly until there are 3 centers at the same time. Just a guess.

Would it be a good idea to make the quality idea group give a bonus to drilling somewhere, instead of the extra discipline? Is the decision for extra drilling speed worth it? +15% land cost is a lot. Personally I'd really like if support rebels practically guaranteed a revolt. Currently it doesn't do anything at all.

Well yes. Some idea groups give a trickle of extra loyalty with estates but you only get that bonus if you have the estate dlc I believe.

So I got two events that would have been fine normally. -A priest in Verona has translated the bible into our language, burn or promote? -The pope is not infallible, he has given Castile colonization rights of the Brazil region. I am the Papal State.

Hey, in my Papal game Ming only tribrutalized their neighbors. Except for Korea, who are halfdead after Ming and Japan took a lot of land from them. No idea how or when it happened. But Japan currently have the mission to conquer Korea but they are also guaranteeing Korea's independence for some reason which means they might've gone full tsundere.

+20% improved relations help burn off AE a little bit faster. I'm kinda sad there isn't a +5% sailor advisor though. Imagine how useful it would be. Drilling is such a pain. It takes years for my brand new troops to become trained at fighting but as soon as they get any real actual combat experience they unlearn everything and become dumb scrubs. It's only good for one battle and not even that if you run into any attrition whatsoever. Hell just shipping your troops somewhere makes them lose effectiveness unless of course you send them on the first of a month and the trip doesn't take more than 30 days. I'm not claiming to be an expert on historical warfare but weren't the hardened veterans usually better at fighting than the fresh recruits? But at least the bonus from high professionalism is nice.

Cool. In my current and previous game all reformation centers spawned inside Germany so it caused a lot of religious chaos and started the big war. Usually half of them spawn in Scandinavia and the British Isles so they don't accomplish much.

There is also this annoying event that makes you lose a lot of proffesssionalism or an absolute ton of manpower. It loves to fire during wars too.
