Yes, that sucks. Does that mean then, that loads of overseas provinces are not able to have shipyards?

 

[Olav]

Here you can see what base tax value the provinces have.

Edit: Is the minimal required for building shipyard tax level 6?

Edit: Is the minimal required for building shipyard tax level 6?

Yes. tenka.

 

[Hitti-Litti]

So Manhattan is one of the few what can have a shipyard in America. Roanoke, San Bernardino and maybe Stadacone are some others.

Hmph. AGCEEP has really evil event bugs.

I played as Ak Koyunlu, the little nation next to Otto. Well, I went through few years of peace, until I conquered Kurdistan from Kara Koyunlu. Then; 60 years of peace. After that Kara Koyunly got "Jahan Shah" events, which occured a war between me and Kara. Perfectly realistic. When I luckily got a peace treaty(they had 60k troops, I had 13k, but no provinces were anymore occupied). Then Jahan Shah died, and "growing Ak Koyunlu conquered Kara Koyunlu."

So I controlled provinces between Trabzon and Hormouz. Nice. Early 15XX I got an event, where my empire split between two heirs, Ahmad and Murad. Realistic, Iraq got in event the whole Persia. But then. I got an event about rise of the Safavids. 30k revolt in Azerbaijan. But I won with my 35k cavalry army. Then I got an event, where Safavids got independence BECAUSE I LOST THE BATTLE!? Man, there were no rebel survivors! In that event all my troops, which were in Azerbaijan, disbanded.

Nice. Well, a good reason to change the game I play(LBA2, here I come!).

I have also tried to play as Ak Koyunlu in AGCEEP. Experienced the same problems as you - and found it very frustrating, so I quit. Really hope EU3 will be better with events like this.

 

[Hitti-Litti]

I think the problem is with event triggers.

 

[Rossiya]

Will the whole map be displayed in the new EU3?

 

[Hitti-Litti]

I'm not sure, I think not.

Those gaps aren't that annoying if you don't focus on them. If there would be provinces their base tax would be 1, so they would be almost useless.

But actually colonizing Siberia as Tibet sounds fun! :öpö:

 

[Olav]

I think there will be gaps in EU3 too.

Edit: Crosspost...

 

[Rossiya]

I think it should just be displayed at least. I think it's really annoying. Half of America, most of Africa, not there.

 

[Formula51]

You must remember that these areas that have PTI (permanent terra incognita) were areas which pretty much were too prohibitive for settlement, at least until the mid-1800s.

 

[Rossiya]

^^True. Increase the timeline.

 

[Kan' Sharuminar]

No need, then you move onto Victoria

 

[Rossiya]

Is that Good?

 

[Kan' Sharuminar]

Depends who you speak to. I can see it being a great game, but at the same time I consider it to be the most difficult of the Paradox Games (that I've played). You start at 1836, and the timeline (with expansion) goes up to 1936, with all the joys of that time period in between.

I'm not a fan, but I'm sure someone who is will be in to describe it better.

 

[Rossiya]

Is the same sort of game as EU2? ie, colonisation of these gaps in eu2 and stuff?

 

[Kan' Sharuminar]

Yeah, colonisation is a big part of it. The whole map is now available and visible from the start.

 

[Rossiya]

Cool. What nations can you play as?

 

[Hitti-Litti]

Any nation. Though it is very boring to play as some small Indian, British vassal nation. So nations that can be enjoyed are maybe all(in Grand Campaign) except African nations, small Asian nations and minor German nations.
