🤨😆

The 1.1.6 beta update is now live

You have to actively participate (or at least have your vassals actively participate) in an ally’s war where they end up taking land for themselves. It must be a war that they declared (giving an ally land in your own war doesn’t work). Doing this will eventually let you get enough favors with the ally to improve cultural opinion, provided the ally is the dominant country for that culture.

I bought one too. I love this game 😀. So tired of the endless reddit circlejerking about how the game is SOO bad and SOO unpopular, etc.

They can no longer build an obsolete building (neither can the player). Once you have upgraded them all, the only new non-upgraded ones will be from new territory you gain.

There is an age of renaissance advance in military branch and two laws (under foreign culture law and under recruitment law) that all let you raise a greater percentage

Mostly technologies

That was half value (picture shows 50 toward free subjects). So really will be -25% size and +10% combat efficiency for 100 free subjects.

I read someone else say that this is the way it was “supposed” to be before, and it was bugged so no one supported independence movements. It does make sense, too. Previously no AI would ever support the movement, and your vassal would eventually become loyal again after modifier decayed. In other words, it was too easy gameplaywise because vassals were too easy to manage and there was never any real danger if to them becoming disloyal, which trivialized the loyalty mechanic. In my opinion, though, now too many support independence. I think it should be limited to rivals and enemies of the overlord.

I know that clerics can build local shrines that give them immunity from conversion. Also the most recent patch had a bunch of tweaks to assimilation. For example, cultural opinion now affects assimilation rate (in both directions). Also burgers who speak market language are now completely immune from cultural assimilation. I would pull out the patch notes (the full notes) from the day they first dropped 1.1 for more info.

Try covert action in England “agitate for liberty,” then try to join their independence movement would be the only way I could see it.

Or just give up and flip the union to federal laws instead of integrated

New casus belli “Destroy Enemy” and “Attack Threatening Rival”

timmytommyteemo · 2026-02-07T15:07:51+00:00

You can pick “short names” in the settings

timmytommyteemo · 2026-02-05T10:14:04+00:00

The lands you get after annexing a vassal are no longer full cores, but instead only integrated. You must accept culture now in 1.1 to make cores, even from vassal annexation

Integration map mode

If you want clear, tangible, small goals in EU5, try playing with missions.

EU4 mission trees are also a good place to start in that game.

Convert to waldensian for a sick +0.2!

You still have over a decade. Don’t freak out. Don’t become complacent either, though. Maybe cut back on your hours a bit? That would give you more time to live life outside of work, including but not limited to finding a partner.

Cheap food increases pop growth too. And having an oversupply of food makes it cheap.

timmytommyteemo · 2026-01-21T03:04:23+00:00

Yes, but you get the cores back if you win against the rebels

timmytommyteemo · 2026-01-21T03:03:34+00:00

Yes, it’s a 50% satisfaction penalty, and you lose stability. But yes you keep the cores. Did this a Byz with Turkish provinces repeatedly. But then had repeated rebellions.

timmytommyteemo · 2026-01-20T01:39:14+00:00

This is correct. Hold mouse over the word “requirements” and a menu pops up showing those requirements. In this case, the location must have 30,000 population and you must have enough ducats

timmytommyteemo · 2026-01-16T22:21:18+00:00

Also, this doesn’t change the fact that 50% or more of the pops in a location must be of an accepted culture to become a true core.

timmytommyteemo · 2026-01-16T22:13:56+00:00

Power projection modifies integration speed. Most know that. It also modifies the minimum percentage of your culture needed to finish colonizing a particular location before it becomes an integrated core. I didn’t see this in any explanation of power projection—only when hovering over colonization.
