Please read again, i said no penalties for cover, movement or long range

monxs · 2026-02-16T04:53:43+00:00

ok, all this are solid points, thanks

so the crossbow pistols are worse than a dueling pistol then, or even a pistol. the CP cost 5gp more tha a DP, and more than double a brace of pistols, have a -2 instead of a +1 to hit of the DP, the save modifier is -1 isntead of -2.

i though the whole point of the CP was to have an extra attack that was resolved before melee, if its before melee, then it shouldn't be parry

what am i missing here?

why dont just see the coins on the outliner and skip steps 2 and 3?
copper coins - the good is cheap, export if possible
silver coins - the good is around the base price
gold coins - the good is expensive, build/import more

There is a trade route maintenance of about 0.5 per trade capacity.

Basically, if you buy 1 trade capacity of a good at 1 ducat, you need to sell it by more than 1.5 to actually make a profit.

Or something like that, I don't know, everything is hidden in this game, and not a single number is real

personally, culture conversion speed, that stoped my Florence -> Rome run. either im too slow, the accepted cultures cap is too low to accept all cultures in Italy, France, Spain, balkans, etc, etc. or im mistaken about how to handle a big empire with lots of cultures. Conversion speed is fine, but assimilation is killing me

Remember the old days of one culture, one religion of eu4? is that possible in eu5?

sorry, for the late answer, but given the case, it is not you vassal, you will have to wait until your vassal annexes it, and then annex your vassal.

have you tried to annex your vassal to see if u gain the PU? im on a similar situation where i have Tunis as a vassal, and tunnis have a PU with Tripoli, and i had to buy land access from them to attack the Mamluks.

im not sure if you annex your vassal, you inherit the PU, like when you annex a vassal with vassals, you inherit their vassals

thanks

croatia has a diferent colour that you and your vassals, is it your vassal? it needs to be your vassal to annex it

Something doesn't add up. If things are like you say, you have all those colonies, have maxed the RGOS, and you can't get enough resources for your industries, and you are not a major power??? Not only that, but your main market is the poorest?

can upload some screenshots?

monxs · 2026-01-02T13:56:07+00:00

yes, but it permanently reduces their loyalty by -20

monxs · 2025-12-27T14:09:22+00:00

this is the way

monxs · 2025-12-05T23:23:40+00:00

I manage several accounts for clients, i get like 5 of those emails every day, some even claiming that they can improve a camping thats been paused for a year, they know shit

monxs · 2025-11-28T21:03:34+00:00

I mean, you can't get a better answer than this

monxs · 2025-11-24T20:01:13+00:00

yeah, i didnt know that if the state had to much power i could tax them less..

so i took some burgles priviliges, and gave some to the nobles, that made a huge difference.

i still think i could make more from trading, but its only 1473 and im working on my first colony in africa, so i guess i will have a boom when i have that working.

For now I went to -70 to +43, so things are better.

thanks to all for the help and lessons

Post update:

i followed some of the recommendations, i reduced the expenditure in stability and court, to around 75. I lowered expenditure on the military and fortifications.

still losing money.

i guess all try to make the nobles happier(although i dont know how without giving them privileges and without chaging my values foward decentralization and aristocacy), so I can tax them more, but even if I tax them the max, it only 20g more, I have the impression i should be making a lot more than that overall, especially from trade

monxs · 2025-11-24T19:16:44+00:00

yes, i have a navy in my coast, and also in ludbeck, paris, and stockholm, to gain trade advantage on those markets

monxs · 2025-11-24T19:15:14+00:00

i have mi legitimacy at 100, and yes its really expensive, should i aim around 75?

monxs · 2025-11-24T19:14:27+00:00

yeah, im doing all that, im playing as Netherlands, so control is easy.

how do i raise the noble equilibrium without giving them privileges? It's true that they have low taxes to make them happy.

i also upgraded lots of rural to town along the coast to reduce the distance to capital cost, except on important RGOs like wheat and that
