How is your EU3 Game going?

[NBAfan]

What kind of Modification for EU3 would you recommend for a player who loves historical accuracy?

A book. But seriously, it's a game so forget it.

DW is worth getting y/y?

DW makes EU3 a good and beautiful game.

It also improves the alliance system so much. it was horrible when your allies were auto-called or you couldn't call them after the war started It also improves the graphics and the game speed, and there's more, so get it!

I've always found auto-calling the most annoying when you're at war with a nation that has rebels in its' territory and you really don't want your 'friends' coming along and killing off all of the rebels.

Not calling allies to war after you start a war sounded like a gameplay feature to me. After all, you should pay if you bit off more than you could chew. But, on the flip side, now your enemies can escalate the war.

OK so I bought it.

Buuuuuut did anyone else get a problem with the text display? All the identifiers for the provinces/countries are a garbled mash of nonletters.

Nope. Bought Chronicles from Amazon about a month ago, and haven't had a prob.

Anyone else?

If you mean that the overland map names occasionally get into a muddle if their country is an unusual size, then yes, it does happen, but it soon fixes itself.

Thoughts on the new magistrate = building mechanic in DW? It's one of a few reasons I haven't bought DW yet.

It works when the number of yearly magistrates isn't pathetically small.

Aka get the beta patches.

It's good. Now you actually have to make a decision of what you want to build instead of mindlessly building in every province right away.

Ok, now thoughts on the new China and Japan mechanics? I've read a bunch of negatives on gameplay effects both for the AI and the player.

I started as Minamoto on 1st January 1700, united Japan and am currently vassalizing and force-converting South-East Asia in 1718. I had swapped National Conscripts for QftNW to discover Hokkaido (to unite Japan), and later swapped QftNW for Unam Sanctam.

It's currently 1735. Relevant screenshot:

Every country east of Taungu and on the SE Asian mainland is my vassal, except Denmark, France and the Netherlands.

Get rid of those smelly Europeans! They do not deserve Indonesia!

My ruler and slider positions are terrible, I can't do that without getting slaughtered, as I haven't been able to Westernize.

I think appropriately funded rebels might work wonders, though.

Also, what's up with the russian bear? Rebels?

If you right click on the icon to the left of the miniflag notices it clears the entire row.
