[Duke of Britain]

That Poland and Lithuania have relatively good historic-ish borders...

Spoiler :

there you go. Historical enough?
Those borders are clean though never seen such a clean Ukraine.

Uh, no, going into Bohemia, like i said, east of Crimea and with almost no presence in the Baltic

this is the Poland (and world) of the MP game :

He is a player tough, but still almost historical, considering i don't think he wanted to make it like that.

I'm playing as France, and I just got Slesvig in 1420! I will explain more if anybody cares to hear it!

I'm currently in a ridiculously exciting Brunei game, as I've been at aproximately 25 years of straight warfare, and have ended up with control of Makassar, Java, Aceh and Southern Malacca (Northern Malacca was taken by Ayuthaya before I could reach it). I have two vassals, Khmer and Champa, and my WE is through the roof. I collapsed just after the autosave, so I'm planning to give concessions to the peasants occupying my capital, then continue dealing with the ridiculous amount of rebels I have. My inflation is unfortunately beginning to spiral, even though I've taken National Bank and am planning to get a better Master of the Mint.

That France looks so nice

Ontopic: He should get Estonia and Crimea and the borders will look much more better

My game has progressed, and I ended up not preventing my collapse, although I did reconquer Bali-Lombok (which had all of Majahapit's former lands) and Malacca, which only had the provinces of Malacca, Johor and one on the Eastern coast of Sumatra after Ayutthaya took another bite out of it. I would eventually conquer and release them after their 4th attempted reconquest of Malacca (with a lot of help from my existing vassals, and partly due to AI stupidity), although, unbeknownst to me, they only had cores on two provinces.

My economy is doing a lot better and I'm beginning to colonize Java so I can form Malaya.

Hosokawa -> Japan in death and taxes

Dat Bihar

 

[Optical]

Them, and Rajputana...

 

[Duke of Britain]

Yeah, but they will go down...after i use my years of holy war on Ming

 

[Leonel]

Is there a way to annex Nomad territory? I know the Wiki says you can't but in a game where I played Ming, I saw Manchu do it somehow! Do you have to like capture all their provinces and force annex them?

 

[W|M]

You capture a province, and send colonists to the province until it has 1000 people and defects to you. You need to do this to every province.

Aaaah! I need to try that!

How the heck does Burgundy have 69000 troops in 1425?

If they use those on France, that's good. If they use those on the HRE nations...

 

[Northen Wolf]

That's like 6 stacks of 12 units? Depending where you are and who you play as, baiting these to fight on mountains or just massing your troops to attack one stack-at-a-time, is interesting.

 

[GamezRule]

I'm France.

All I see is 2 stacks of 15. The other 2 (3?) are probably off in Brabant or something. I did load them up on a 1420ish save, back when they only had 54 units, and they do appear to be nearing bankruptcy from it. They had a unit limit of 44 at the time.

Also, does base tax grow over time, and how do I compete economically?

 

[W|M]

I don't think it increases over time, although it can increase in some places due to events.

Send merchants to the biggest trade centers; Lubeck and Antwerpen are the best at 1399 IIRC. Venezia is best set to low priority unless you're in its proximity of course.
