How is your EU3 Game going?

[Arakhor]

A country at -3 stability cannot refuse peace deals. It is absolutely infuriating though, I agree.

How do I take map shots? I have a pretty good D&D 4.0 Inca game, 1541, unconquered and fully modernized, and there is weirdness going on elsewhere (Yemen controls South India, Aragon is still alive and has most of Castille)

Thanks for the answer, I didn't know about that.

It seems I'll have to spam diplomats to get his stability to -3 through deals he won't accept so that I can finally end this war.

F11 takes a screenshot of the game, F12 is a world map, and Shift-F12 is a world map with only you and your vassals/PUs.

Wait, is this the type of half-baked peace deal I can get when Austria is at -3 stability?

Yes, it's better than nothing, but it's still not fair, not at all!

If a country at -3 stability can't refuse peace deals, then when I had -3 stability and uber-high infamy as Burgundy, how come countries didn't just force me to take white peaces instead of conquering them? Would'a helped them a lot and kept my infamy down at the same time.

I was prevented from starting new wars, which was kind of unfortunate. Hard to conquer the world when you can't declare war on anyone. And after annexing half my neighbors, the others wisened up and decided it was better to neighbor a super-infamous country than to declare war on them and soon lose their freedom.

I wonder how you manage that, I seriously can't go over the infamy limit to avoid the dog-pilling, not because that's the problem but because then my WE is stuck in the 20s and mass revolts pop up everywhere from both the WE and the infamy, and even if they're all quelled by the (hunting rebels) troops - which they aren't because one in every three provinces suddenly gets stacks of >10 rebels, they still flood my screen with popups and all those troops start draining my manpower and my stacks of 32-16-16 suddenly become that much less efficient if they're fighting like 3-1-6 and just can't reinforce.

Sure, I get it, conquering the world means fighting everyone at the same time including your own people and it must be a slow planned process, but still, how can it ever happen when for every 10 provinces you occupy, you only get to incorporate 4 in your realm and then have 5 years of truce with everyone and their dog that decided to jump in the pool of trying to whack the human player?

Are...Are you using stacks of 64000 troops

because then I think I know why you have such a high WE

Well I suppose you have to have truces running with a few years interval then you can be at war with one half of the world while having a truce with the other half. But this is pure speculation since I've never gone for world domination. But it's been how I've waged war every time my nation was big enough to have huge borders with two of my strongest competitors.

also demanding others to remove cores is always good and in my opinion worth it if you just need to conquer one extra territory to do that.

 

[Antilogic]

Those stacks are ridonkulous.

Even in the 18th century, I still stack at most 30k-35k in one army.

 

[W|M]

Even the Roman Empire should run out of manpower by about 8 stacks of 25-30k, anyway.

Having stable succession in a monarchy improves your legitimacy, which gives a host of little bonuses. Also, you might be able to inherit foreign lands or get more alliances/vassals if your family members are on the thrones.

I would love to know what happened with Pommerania and Meissen.

Bohemia looks more like a horde than a European country!

 

[Turquoiside]

They really do have a lot to fix with that feature...

The feature makes sense. Russia did almost exactly that IRL. It's just that when Bohemia, Hungary, or Austria do that, it looks very weird.
