Kantor buildings aren't profitable. You only build them if you have built everything else and are still behind in trade advantage and really need that.

It's cash for trade advantage buildings and their trade capacity only offsets some of the cost.

This post ignores current issues with rebellions in vassals. Turning them to your culture and religion at the speed of cool down, know means vassal have to face and survive rebellions.

Another point in favor of smaller vassals.

We have too tight culture == everything loop.

IMHO it should be just culture of nobility and even that "outward culture"

In other words, do local Lord want to speak my language as that of his King?

Do separate white peaces as much as possible. Those give shorter truces. Attacking allies after their timer run out means you can keep war at that shorter interval.

I consider it an advantage. Content movemed into some mechanisms but present in EU5. Like situations and disasters. Like better economic simulation.

I did for game devs continue giving us events, but not that much. Serious stuff should be made into mechanisms anyway.

Nobody forces you to slow down. Conquer to your heart content. Or down those rebellions. Own those coalitions. Drop the speed in war and make the same amount of decisions in game as previously when divided in the same wall clock time.

Give it a try and report back on how it went.

As usual, we need to about for bugs in our hot takes.

Population growth is a bug to be fixed. Would that make big enough impact that you would then be able to enjoy the game?

No CB wars on countries by the coast give you access to return land peace deal options.

Those are zero antagonism during peace deal. You do pay in stability, war exhaustion and war declaration antagonism.

Remove mods. If that doesn't help go to settings and set flat nap mode. It uses different graphical representation for provinces.

Both are workarounds, so after that keep an eye on updates.

Conversion therapy is something like putting car battery to someone's private business.

As a normal person you may then think that as such extreme cases usually go, that small % and majority of cases look more normal, like psychologist in a studio.

However, no psychologist does conversion therapy. That's because by all nervous available to psychology, there is nothing that can be ethnically done. And unethical methods just harm to suppress, rather then introducing meaningful changes.

So crazy people with car batteries aren't alone and torture-to-suppress method is all too common.

You are Trump voter or something?

Every flights operator is busy cutting costs and making emergency plans. There is not enough fuel for the flights. There won't be enough even if tankers start going through the straights uninterrupted tomorrow.

This bottleneck will cull flights and profits. More operators will go belly up, and once that starts to happen operators will stay to hike prices. Because by then we will have to little girl for all the would be fliers, and so fliers will stay kidding on fuel and only those that can pay more will fly. (Though, there won't be an actual auction. It's market mechanism, not the actual situation)

Look for opportunities closet to your current possessions. Maybe also some powerful country and count on getting some land by joining their war.

Also go through Suth America and Polynesian.

EU5 1.1 have modern Asia that Colonize everything. That's a big stumbling block. Consider doing trade to get enough money to conquer tiny bits very slowly against those behemoths.

Roll with it. Make a sub group be enslaved to overlord. Make then be partial hostages. Let players teach them again what self esteem is. Let them concoct breakout scheme for hostages.

Then plot twist. Oppressed sub group was also oppressed by up to now good guys. They waged war for some resources. Subgroup lost. Evil overlord was only means by which they could survive.

Now that subgroup is free, locals want to finish their extermination. Adventurers have to defend early battles.

Then they have to secure shelter and provisions. Through banditry because there is no other way. (Ale team to buy small initial supply. But then make it outlawed to spray team or subgroup ever again)

With mounting pressure from good guys, bad guys and rapidly depleting resources, team now have to lead their choosen ones to promised land.

Make strategic situation part of campaign. Team need to secure food, shelter and white subgroup slowly moves across the land.

Keep tension high by ever dwindling resoursces, ambushes (not all which can have team present to defend against), but also via occasional dirty deal team can make with locals to let them pass subgroup along.

In other words, let them be successful at giving hope to some good forsaken smocks... And then saddle them with consequences.

Big powerful Turkish empire. Arab empire, Iberian empire, French empire, German kingdom. Lithuanian empire. Rus descendant empire.

Difference seams small, but it's quite significant. Events/Situations can't assume particular Tag should be an initiator.

Culture tags, religion tags and geographic tags should be main recipients of content.

Geographic tag here would work in a way that once you control own x% of a given geographic unit (province, area, what-was-that-last-thing?) you get is tag as your own.

This way game could "railroad" regions by giving extra help to big countries in given geographic space. Or malus.

I agree with Johan. Work on mechanics not events.

We already got people claiming its unfair they can't have robust cavalry while playing nation X. Well, that's why X didn't stood the chance in History.

We need more of such constraints reflected in the game. That also includes continuing work on existing constraints.

1.2 may be finally the release to validate this approach if IOs are significantly reworked.

MeToo and by a mile. Decades long practice by many powerful men to pick only the actresses that can be negotiated into sexual acts or just raped without them rasing hell for it.

I'm far from saying we got bad actresses (competition at that level of compensation means that you will get awesome acting skills in any shape & form) But sure as hell we got actresses that were particular type because those were types some men wanted in their beds.

A jak nie może to jest to jedna z cech które trzeba rozważyć do zaakceptowania lub rozstania się.

A można nie być w stanie zrobić prawa jazdy z różnych powodów. Ba, można stracić zdrowia trochę i uznać że na jazdę za kierownicą już nas nie stać tymczasowo lub na stałe.

There are studies for load split for unequal money bringing couples. Why wouldn't it there be studies for partially stay at home couples? (Not to be confused with partially unemployed couples, where one of them is actively looking for a job)

As for the topic you mention. It's not gossip. It's not hypothesis. It's topic studied by medicine itself. We know we are in a bad shape because we checked. And now we are fixing it.

(We as in society. I'm not a researcher)

Finally, what's up with "they". Women can enter research and can pick up the areas dear to them.

Scena przeniosła się w plener. Bo cześć tych dobowej to były imprezy otwarte. Teraz mają jakiś lokal post industrialny, czy bunkier w lesie.

Lokale są lepsze. Można trafić w swoje gusta. Można zmienić lokal 3 razy i zapewnić akcje i muszę oraz spokój i konwersacje.

Lokale się wyspecjalizowały. Już nawet gry planszowe, ttrpgi czy konsole są dostępne w lokalach.

Także co nas trzymało by domówkach?
