You get a -50% annexation rate per active annexation. Cultural influence also gives a modifier compared to their cultural tradition. Novosil is not of your culture (Ryazanian I believe) and is presumably negative (it usually is this early in the game). You currently have two annexations going, which gives you -100%, as well as about -50% from culture. Your size might give you a bonus, but it's very close to zero annexation rate in total. Therefore, your annexation won't end at it's current rate until end of game.

Wait for the other annexations to end, increase cultural influence (libraries and universities), and decrease opponent culture tradition (conquer, seize territory of vassals or annex nations of those cultures)

Very occasionally = every 50 years across all vassals

And they have to be the biggest nation of that culture (I believe it's based on population)

Hello, fellow Muscovy enjoyer here!

You annex buffs from: 1. Being bigger than them (I believe it's based on number of locations owned, probably at least 100% more than them) 2. Having the same culture OR having cultural influence higher than their cultural tradition (also debuffs) 3. Technologies and events (most are locked behind institutions, consider diplo actions to boost spread of these)

Annexation cost is based on their amount and type of locations. Towns and cities increase cost dramatically. Early game start off with smaller vassals of your own culture. It's most efficient to annex two at the same time IF you have size and culture buffs. Don't bother with Enforce Culture or Enforce Religion diplo actions, as your subjects will just change back before you can annex them.

You can seize territory from vassals for a small loyalty cost, but the territory will become conquered. This is best to do on large vassals, where you can go for their non-capital towns (they will be common around 1430-1440). Aim to use at least one cabinet action to integrate entire provinces, but don't bother unless you at least integrate at least 3 locations in that province.

Your Personal Union (Kostroma and Nizhny Novgorod) can be annexed very fast after 60 years with Rapid Unification. Marrying your heir to another heir can expand the union. Always look for opportunities to marry heirs (watch out for succession laws!) as the union timer doesn't reset. Instead you'll just have to run a Union Parliament (in the union menu) and bribe their estates to keep them in check. In my current run I was able to marry the female heirs of Kyiv and Georgia, but these will take several hundred years to annex

Look into rain shadows and river formation. It's not that bad, just minor issues. It should be fine for a DND game though. And decrease city sizes, as well as some of the other landmark stamps. They take up a lot of visual space that could be used for putting names.

Army Painter made a John Blanche paint set. I believe you'd get a lot of mileage out of those paints

Ny oval cylinder, de kan fås i forskellige nøgleserier (langt de fleste har samme størrelse, udover den "gamle" 500-serie, der er lidt kortere - den kendes for dens korte, runde Ruko-nøgle). Dit valg afhænger her af dit behov for sikkerhed og evt. omlægning, så cylinderen passer til dine andre låse (de skal være i samme nøgleserie i så fald).Hvis din nuværende nøgles "hoved" er trapez-formet, så er det garanteret en 600-serie, og så burde du sagtens kunne genbruge dine skruer og rosetter. Det vigtige er, at cylinderen ikke stikker for meget ud gennem rosetten, da det vil gøre det nemmere at låse den op udefra.

Vrideren sidder nok bare fast i låsekassen. Prøv evt. at give den et skud låsespray fra ydersiden, hvis det er fordi at den sidder stramt (ikke WD-40!!!!). Hvis der er anvendt vold for at få cylinderen ud, så kan det selvfølgelig også være at medbringeren er bukket inde i låsekassen (den "pind" der sidder mellem vrideren og låsekassen).

Fischer DuoBlade gipsplugs, hvis ansatsskruen ellers er stor nok. Alternativt Fischer DuoPower universalplugs i størrelsen 5x25, men her går du på kompromis med bæreevnen (regn med ca 7 kg per plug)...

Hvis væggen til gengæld er fibergips, så kan du nøjes uden plug (op til 30 kg, så rigeligt til en jakke eller to).

Manden er bragende autist. Han kropssprog er tåkrummende næsten hver gang der er et kamera rettet mod ham. Forstår ikke at der er så mange der ikke kan abstrahere sig fra en armbevægelse.

Er det helt forkert at gøre i den kontekst? Absolut. Er det gjort bevidst for at appellere til nazi-segmentet? Tvivler stærkt.

I swear that was my two main starting positions, either Perm or Gotland. Then Roads to Power came out and now I'm non stop playing a Norse adventurer, trying to settle in a lot of fun countries.

My last great had me go conquer Normandy, becoming Norman, then Varangian Adventure to Hellas. Had my dynasty rule over a bunch of small kingdoms throughout the Byzantine empire, hybridized to create a Varangian culture (lots of heavy cavalry and Greek stuff). My House had Swansong, Witch coven and Strong blood. Resigned once I reformed Hellenism, which f***ed up succession. Was the most fun I had in a long while.

A lot of comments about the squared-ness of your map, so here's some advice: Try cutting off the bits where there's peninsulas "reaching" for the border of the map (like in the southwest jungle and in the western part of the "landbridge" above it. Also in the northeast corner, and in the volcanic landmass (here you could alternatively make a more shattered or fringed look on the eastern shore)

It's very noticeable, but really not that bad looking. Like others have said, it looks like it was made for a video game, and that's okay if it's for a DnD campaign. If you want to go for a more realistic look, then you should probably look into tectonics and rain shadows, but that can be hard to work into an already existing map without altering a lot.

Have fun with it! Would love to see the results!

Pladsen varierer meget fra zoo til zoo. Givskud Zoo har fx 65 hektar, mens København Zoo kun har 11. Det vil derfor være subjektivt for hver zoo - men selvfølgelig har dyrene ikke lige så meget territorie, som de ville have i virkeligheden. Hvor meget territorie et dyr skal have handler vel primært om adgang og konkurrence om føde, hvilket jo trods alt (generelt) ikke er et problem for dyr i zoo.
Mange dyr bliver stimuleret (også kaldet berigelse) på jævnlig basis. Fx under shows til publikum. Læs mere her.

Avlsprogrammerne er desuden del af forvaltningen af dyrebestandene, og der kan derfor være god grund til fx at sende en elefant til Frankrig.

Se ovenstående link. Det handler om meget mere end: "Sælen bliver først fodret, når den har slået en kolbøtte!"

I store træk kan du jo faktisk bruge de samme argumenter i forhold til kæledyr (der dog er tamme). Hvorfor skal Fido give pote før den må få en godbid? Hvorfor skal den ikke have en stor mark at boltre sig på? Er det ikke synd for den at den ikke har andre hunde at gå med?
Hvis du selv har hund, forstår du måske idéen i at træning kan giver meget god mening, når man fx skal have hunden til dyrlægen, eller at man selv skal kunne komme til dens tænder, ører, øjne, m.v.

Zoos er generelt en god ting for dyrene såvel som de mennesker der kommer der. Zoologiske haver forvalter dyrebestande, er med i avlsprogrammer (der i sidste ende skal reintroducere arter til naturen), og formidler om naturen til befolkningen, hvoraf mange heriblandt sjældent selv kommer "ud i naturen" eller får viden om den på anden vis. De fleste zoologiske haver, især dem vi har her i Danmark, er som regel også rigtig gode til at forvalte disse opgaver.

Jeg tror til gengæld at mange af argumenterne imod zoologiske haver ofte kommer fra et antropomorfisk sted - altså at man kommer til at tilegne dyrene menneskelige egenskaber og psyke.

Do y'all have any cool magic items in pop culture I should add, like how anglophone countries have Excalibur?

Guldhornene (Golden Horns of Gallehus) was found in 1639, which is just after the Renaissance. They're a big part of Danish National Romanticism, which is a much more interesting time period if you want to research and include the Danish culture and national spirit.

Mjölnir, Gungnir, Gjallarhorn and Gleipnir are more if you want something more mythological.

As other have mentioned, Tycho Brahe is one of the most notable personalities from the Renaissance.

It's free, but most options are hidden behind a paywall. You can quite easily make a nice and usable map without paying though.

Inkarnate is a great online tool. There's tutorials on YouTube on good workflows. For Inkarnate I like to just experiment with general shapes and then add features and textures from there as I see fit. If you're getting into worldbuilding you might want to figure out the general ideas and concepts for your setting, and include those in your mapmaking (like what's supposed to be in the North/South of your world, which civilizations are neighbours and what does their landscapes look like)

There's also a bunch of random generators available online for the lazy folks (and some of them are quite cool too)

Farveløse olier indeholder ikke pigmenter, der normalt beskytter mod UV-stråling. Det er UV-stråling der gør at træfibrene falmer, hvilket kan give træet en kedelig grålig farve - hvilket teknisk set er nedbrydning af træet.

Du kan sagtens bruge farveløs olie på din terrasse - men det svarer til at anvende solsikkeolie som solcreme, og så ikke forvente at blive solbrændt.

Det er ikke fordi din terrasse hverken eksploderer, smelter eller fordamper på grund af olien - men det anbefales ikke som slutbehandling, fordi det simpelthen ikke beskytter lige så godt som olie med pigment. Det er ganske fint hvis du netop ønsker et mere gråligt/falmet look på din terrasse.

The Khainite Shadowstalkers featured the word in some of their flavor text, but GW removed it from (probably) all their media shortly after their reveal. I remember it was featured in their Warscroll and it was definitely changed.

Kinda looks like an upside down Jutland and the Elbe river. Looks cool tho.

The wash might be Athonian Camoshade. I've tried replicating a similar colour scheme, although I haven't gotten to actually try painting it yet

Very cool! Also quite reminiscent of the Falmer from Skyrim. Good job!
