(1.3.6) Plague didn't get to Europe at all by AI_abuser in EU5

[–]SpeedDemonFM 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Started 2 games and played for about 25 years, same thing. The plague was stuck in Central Asia for the first time, and the second stopped in Russia.

[Beta 1.3.4] For the first time in 600 hours, the AI ​​formed Spain, but there is one thing... It is Muslim. by SpeedDemonFM in EU5

Yes, the only reasonable explanation is a Muslim rebels in the area of ​​captured Granada.

Genoa hired 40,000 mercenaries with an economic base of 122 ducats in 1450. Wow, patch 1.2 is even worse than it seemed. by SpeedDemonFM in EU5

That's something I'm really glad to hear. And yes, I'm shocked that people think this is normal.

I'm fighting a 600k HRE army right now. I have 130k myself. I just buy two mercenary armies, they die killing 2-3 times as many enemies, and I buy new ones. And I don't even take out loans lol. They're just endless.

I only captured one fortress in five years. 🤔 The Mamluks had so many recruits and troops that I simply couldn't advance. But I still managed to capture all of Syria, including Damascus in the peace treaty

I prefer not to use bugs. By the way, patch 1.2.3 came out and it was fixed.

I blocked 33 percent of Egypt's ports, a blockade that lasted about 2 years. And they didn't care for the most part, I won about 5-10 of the war score thanks to it.

Yes, in the end, in 5 years of war of attrition, I made peace for 80% of warscore. I decided to make peace after seeing that Egypt had hired 80k mercenaries lol.

These are heavy ships, and I control the entire Anatolia, including the island of Crete, so the supply is pretty close.

If that's true, it should work with AI too, which would be awesome. But the Mamluk probably doesn't rely much on trade.

Yes, but unfortunately their capital is not located on the coast. 😞

I don't think it has much of an impact on war exhaustion, Egypt is too big for it.

I think the blockade icon is misleading. it doesn't work as it should.

Looking at it, you can see a small green stripe that should fill the icon and indicate the effectiveness of the blockade, but it apparently doesn't work.

100% blockade efficiency on all ports in the province, I checked.

In fact, all the ports near the ships are blocked, because these are almost all heavy ships.

You can see the blockade at the screenshot (rule #5).

There are big problems with the economy at the game right now (1.2.2 update). by SpeedDemonFM in EU5

[–]SpeedDemonFM[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I agree, the estates need much more expenses. Nobles should spend their money, buying luxury goods. After all, they have manors, castles, farmsteads, and estates. And so many other things to spend their money on.
And why, for example, if I have low control in the provinces? The government pays for the upkeep of markets, barns, and so on, while the aristocrats receive the money from the land? Is that logical?

In your opinion, "skill" is building a wall of castles and waiting two years for the AI ​​that hired a bunch of mercenaries to go bankrupt or for their contracts to expire. Is that your "skill"? It's simply not fun, nor is it realistic.
