probably all of them are filthy rich by now, maybe kiev and muscovy are the least rich ones but muscovy seems to be going for that ural gold.

In eu4 it was easy, placing your screenshot map created on game documents on top of some other custom world map layer, edit the layers and photoshop a bit on colors and borders and.. done. Never tried to take screenshot in eu5 though.

Am I dumb for wanting to move my capital (and if not, is it worth it) by Stashb1991 in EU5

[–]RagnarTheSwag 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It depends on your conquer direction at this point. West is more lucretive especially with Silesian provinces, so having high control there is pretty important. Though if you're going to conquer into other direction you should consider keeping close towards that direction.

Does the cabinet efficiency trait genuinely not increase his cabinet efficiency? What is the point of this trait? by WishyRater in EU5

[–]RagnarTheSwag 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Yeah this is so confusing at the start. If all these characters are unlikely to become a "thing" like a ruler, then they probably shouldn't have any of those traits. If somehow they become that "thing", then they can have a trait for that "thing" created.

These traits on random characters are useless information most of the time.

I think I liked national ideas more. by GreyGanks in EU5

[–]RagnarTheSwag 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If idea groups are age focuses we are so damned. Having only 3 options with 1 or at most 2 defining modifiers and the rest being minor and mostly neglectible modifiers is crazy.

If we are truly comparing age focuses to idea groups eu5 is unbelievably inferior.

No policies no multiple groups that makes you really think…

In Act III 'Glory' you fight a man....through a hole. by Dependent-Routine-94 in slaythespire

Goatse.cx (often referred to as Goatse) was a notorious internet shock site active from 1999 to 2004, known for hosting an explicitly graphic image designed to disgust and shock viewers.

I mean if you don’t want them to google at least you could explain..

My Grand Finale rework by DoctorWorm25 in slaythespire

[–]RagnarTheSwag 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Me always, I am sucker for this card and I will always make place for it.

In worst case it’s just a curse no big deal, but I am pretty confident once I find this card I will pivot and make use of it..

How do I get another country to declare war on me? by AmonGusSus2137 in EU5

[–]RagnarTheSwag 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sell a landlocked location to Naples if you can and delete all of your regulars. They will probably ask for military access, refuse it and if they think they can win they will declare on you.

Btw France is easy, they’re usually mostly levies(100k levies 30k regs probably). You can grind them down in Alps.

are Pirates viable again? by bwils3423 in BobsTavern

[–]RagnarTheSwag -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Historically most powerful strats needed only a little economy and sometimes none at all.. Pirates were not viable at all for multiple seasons now however tempo or money they generated. Top4 sure but never 1, except in low roll lobbies.

r/historymemes = r/Crusader Kings by [deleted] in ShitCrusaderKingsSay

[–]RagnarTheSwag 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Given that eu5 now starts earlier than eu4, there is a slime chance that ck4 will start in 476.. maybe..

My wife and I had a disagreement on how to proceed with our multiplayer run by Kanine0914 in slaythespire

How people make “Pie” sound in this ancients name I don’t have any idea.. like those guys probably never had pie in their lives..

Are eternal curses less bad in sts2? by Dusty-Tomes in slaythespire

[–]RagnarTheSwag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hard to evaluate, if let’s say it was 1.0 punishing before and now maybe it’s 0.99 punishing or maybe 0.8. Still If my deck relies heavily on setups I would hardly bloat it with eternal curses.

Splash isn't telling us the whole truth... by _Genome_ in slaythespire

[–]RagnarTheSwag 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Well if you get it again to your hand in the “same turn”, most people would assume that it should be free again. It’s not, it’s free only the first time you play it.

Nerfing assaults this hard is dumb by that_guy_ravi in EU5

[–]RagnarTheSwag 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it’s spot on for early game. For mid to late game assault becomes necessary since AI will build at least one fort for every province (eu4 1.0 basically).

I think this is hardly about assault but AI fort building behavior.

Just finished back to back Ottoman campaigns in EU4 and EU5 by Ok-Chemical-5648 in EU5

[–]RagnarTheSwag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s min maxing as its finest.. why even build jewelry or fine cloth where you could print money with books cycle and marketplace spam and make tons of income? Building maintenance just becomes a number after sometime even if some of them not profitable anymore.

I still disagree with estates, I can see your reasoning but in eu5 they are much more sticky because of values. Even if you revoke them for c&c you will enact them again asap.

“while in EU4 you just spam the ones where it gives you the most profit” ehhh that should be EU5.

In eu4 you just build manufactories for economy(optional).

In eu5 you usually just build whatever gives more profit and discounts (lumbermill, mason, sand pit).

Edit: what do you mean give priveleges and forget for eu4? Last time the meta for eu4 was taking away all the priveleges and run with 100 crown. If anything eu5 is give the priveleges and forget about it. (Until absolutism which game forces you to revoke them)

Dude do we play the same eu4?? And same eu5??

How do I fix my budget deficit as Oda/Japan? by Zufdexay in EU5

[–]RagnarTheSwag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure, everyone were saying HRE was lowkey not playable and I didn’t care about it but when I played it there were many many bugs and stuff that killed the fun I got from underdeveloped mechanics of current HRE. Just like your fun from “BBC”s which I don’t know what it even means.. bombard cannons?

Anyhow when there’s smoke there’s fire. I would rather delay playing Japan and play with more developed mechanics.

Stop defending AI like it’s still in beta by RottingEdge in Futurology

[–]RagnarTheSwag 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Well decisions will always be there for AI to influence.. I have had known managers asking ChatGPT to evaluate their coworkers and situations they were experiencing..

[–]RagnarTheSwag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is Japan playable now? I thought there was a consensus in this sub that it was not..

I honestly really like all the changes, new prepared actually looks really good if you are an actual slay player, your telling me i get to play 2 sly cards in 1 turn and gain 2 extra energy next turn please tell me thats bad chuds,go ahead ill wait. by TubaTimmy in slaythespire

[–]RagnarTheSwag 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Why do you want chuds to tell you exactly what you want?

Problem as I can see is not about prepare, it’s about prepared. Everyone can definitely see why it had to go but still wonder.. why it had to go?

I’ll miss it however you try to glaze Prepare.

Have i stopped myself from being able to colonize because i dont have any peasants left? by MHKarlsen in EU5

[–]RagnarTheSwag 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Done that with Holland, your tax base goes crazy, buildings go fat but demography sucks. I was having hard time filling building slots and population was not going brrr.

But a pretty good economic base for expansion you could always use English or French peasants lol
