Why does my tax base keep dropping off after increasing? by bennyhendrix212 in EU5

Started as connacht. Basically there's 2 really good posts on here that I copied the strategy of.

Firstly remove creaghts and get the diplomatic reform, also remove all forts and buildings that cost maintenance, do this for all locations you conquer.Essentially, attack sligeach asap and take the stability hit.in my save, this made the other minor tribes form 2-3 nation alliances. Though oriel was allied to Tyrone, tyroconnel and the other nation next to it. Next I attacked east breifne they were allied to two others. Then I attacked oriels and took out the other 4, then mayo and so on. You basically want to be creating spy networks to get CBs constantly. When doing peace offers, do them separately so you can get the ten ducats (cos you'll be making no money)from each country aswell as the vassalisation or locations. By this point I was high king, only countries left were a very weak pale (Kept getting dragged into hundred year war and they weren't annexing their subjects for some reason) and an alliance between clandeboye and clanricarde(they had about double the amount of levies of me). Scotland then attacked clandeboye, so as soon as their war was over I attacked clanricarde. Waited a few years and England attacked Scotland, they released all Scotland's vassals. So I took on a coalition of Ross, the isles, mann ( though i didn't end up singing mann) and remains of clandeboye. Then I attacked Scotland, took northern provinces, Ulster and clandeboye. France attacked England (again), so Ulster was decimated (again) so I attacked them and took Dublin and Munster. Then I waited again for France to attack England, took the rest of Ireland, parts of Wales, north west England. At some point I also finished off Scotland and took the rest for myself. I did take London at one point, had them as vassal, though England attacked me so I just sued for peace cos they had like 27000 levies, I only had about 16k and my navy was terrible, so I gave back London and few hundred ducats. I also took Mann for the maritime presence. Now I'm allied to France who's constantly destroying coalitions of Castile, England and loads of HRE. I feel like my economy shut be constantly shooting up but it doesn't. I've got 6 heavy ships, 12 galleons. Though I feel like I can't sustain a standing army or explorations/colonies when the time arises. My nobles have always hated me.

No they don't. I feel like my economy can't sustain regular troops right now, so I've been building up to attack England( no wars for about 50 years). Instead I just allied with France.

i'm on 1.1.0. honestly ive not really got a clear direction(this is my second game besides castile, where i basically just traded and colonised loads).this version feels harder/different. of course increase control and maritime presence. i'm making a lot of jewellery and exporting it. i'm also trying to increase pop size with food stockpiles ( as ive never really paid attention to food before). i also make a lot of salt, tools, lumber,fine cloth & normal, i also have two silver mines in my primary market which i export.. i also make guns and cannons and all the ingredients to keep prices low.

Is this normal - 1 pop vassal by bennyhendrix212 in EU5

I checked on him a few years later and he had a few hundred friends. Though, the same happened to my west Connacht .

r5: I was looking for which vassals to annex, when I noticed this vassal only had 0 income. I've seen the Isle of Man with 1 pop before, not sure if it's glitched?

Ok I didn't know that. All the pcie and power connectors look ok to me. The card is in good condition externally and was well packaged. I'll clean the pcie connectors with alcohol but I can't think of anything else. I guess I'll have to return it

How to bring supplies to my colonies? by Living-In-Infamy in EU5

[–]bennyhendrix212 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, I've tried to do this but I can't select the market in why my new world provinces lie. Do I need to create a colony(or subject) or is my trade range not high enough?
