How is your EU3 Game going?

No, that can't be it, you had to force vassalise them which means you had to fight them. If you're fighting them, use the Holy War cb and annex them (you can release later if you want). It's impossible for you to peacefully get them to be your vassals as the different religion forbids royal marriages.
I must be mixing up my allies and vassals. Will check when i get back in the game.
Why would you ever do such a thing?? Paying full infamy for a province you don't need or won't be able to keep and then giving it away, specially when it's a province which you could get for no infamy and with an instant core with inheritance or Reconquest cb after forming Spain!!
I took the baleares to annex Aragon to form Spain. (at some point in the future) I had no idea doing that would give me cores.
No attacking?? How can you even play the game??
But i like playing peacefully !

Btw, here's some maps. The year is 1750:

At some point the 300 year old alliance between Spain and France was torn to pieces. They asked me to join them in a war against someone with which i had a truce and i denied their call to arms. Apparently this had huge implications on the world stage - loosing their most important ally for a minor war in India, France was immediately gang raped by just about everyone. I could not bring myself to attack my former ally who helped me so many times when i needed him in the past. Now, 50 years later, i have an alliance with Great Britain and will join the next invasion of France. It's better for them to live under my rule than Burgundian or Austrian.

Also: freed the slaves WOO !
Also: am now a constitutional republic !
Also i took that idea which gave you tolerance to heretics. Then bam, about 20(?) provinces converted to other stuff randomly. :eek: I don't think that's a big deal, but i want the Iberian peninsula, Mecca and Medina to remain Catholic. Oh and Abruzzi(next to Rome) just became Orthodox. :lol:
 
It is - i'm trying to stay on their good side for now.
 
I think something is broken in my game. I have about 20 Tax Assesors (?) or whatever that unique building is called. All of them were built by random events.
I think i can now mint 500 gold without feeling any inflation. This is however useless since there's not much i can actually do with minting or money.
 
That only mean things are going well.

The tax assessor thing, however... Uh... That shouldn't happen, lol.
 
My first EU3 game as Dai Viet. ^_^ I wanted to start small without the HRE mechanics and such to learn about how to build a small empire. I declared war on Champa and Khmer instantly in 1399 and took them. Then I try to be nice with Ming, and later Wu when China separated. For the next years I try to fight small nations around me when I got the chance, eventually took the trade center in Singapore.

Is this not so bad for a Southeast Asia minor within 140 years?

how to westernize??? Is that a government tech level?

You need a (coastal I think) province next to a Western European nation. You'll see it as a westernization event at the top of the screen.
 
In what year does the game end ?

Also, is it possible to keep up in tech while playing with non-westerners ?
 
I would imagine no because it would not keep up the spirit that Europe was most tech advanced at the time.

The major problem is the fact that Western Europe is full of high tax OPMs. That lets them research very quickly and means that other western European countries get a lot of the neighbor bonus.

While this was true, the game exaggerated this. For instance, a midsize European state in the late 1600s would be able to easily steamroll China whereas that could never have happened historically. Native Americans like the Iroquois were almost certainly doomed in the 16th century, even though they kept their independence until after the American Revolution. And so on.
 
The only thing Europeans were better at initially (according to paradoxian forum posts) was shipbuilding and metallurgy.

Too bad those two things was the requirement for invading things cross continent, amirite?

Chinese and Indian metallurgy was ahead, also European naval technology in 1700 would have been insufficient to transport an army capable of conquering China.

Oh, I didn't really mean to imply that China was in any way conquerable in the EU timeline. Sorry bout that. I personally hated that India and China were so easily invadable in nonmodded EU3.

Death & Taxes actually fixes this. Slightly. Very slightly. At least Indian armies are really, really powerful, and I only managed to overtake armies of 10,000 of Indian minors with 100,000s of attrition losses and a great deal of home revolts and economical issues before gaining a foothold in India.

That a foothold is possible, however...
