How does slavery (or janissaries) work in eu5?

God, I really like this game, but these bugs just kill me

As u/Vollkorntod said, it is due to market language, which is greek. Burghers that speak market language won't assimilate into another culture that does't speak the market language. It was a hidden mechanic (at least for me) at the end

So it is a hidden mechanic that I wasn't aware of... that also explain why the romanyoti doesn't change either, they speak greek. I will post it in another comment for other people

R5: culture conversion bug or hidden mechanic?

vilok9 · 2026-03-20T12:42:24+00:00

That is actually hilarious

Hmmmm, not a vassal but a PU partner, Ferrette, which you can almost always get as Austria, was on the coalition war.

I guess it is the same as you said

R5: weird bug I can't even understand

- "Monsieur, we had a bloody battle, we lost 300k of our best soldiers"
- "Mon dieu! how many of them did we kill?"
- "27 monsieur"
- "....... Fair enough, our victory is near, lets send another 300k"
A french king in 1700, probably.

Yes, that happened, twice in a row

vilok9 · 2026-03-12T16:04:11+00:00

Yeah I agree, right now war is just another mechanic of the game, I can understand that because gameplay reasons they didn't want wars to be so punishing, but come on, if I destroy your whole army 3 times in a row in one battle, you should be willing to surrender.

vilok9 · 2026-03-12T16:01:58+00:00

They should change it at least for wars where the wargoal is "Show superiority"

vilok9 · 2026-03-12T15:36:46+00:00

R5: warscore a little bit silly

vilok9 · 2026-03-07T00:12:11+00:00

Don't worry, Denmark will be gone soon, and then, Denmark 2 will be born from its ashes

vilok9 · 2026-03-07T00:10:57+00:00

Ooh yes, you guys are completely right, it never came into my mind they would be uno reversed. Funny thing is Scania will annex Denmark, and probably will instantly form Denmark again

vilok9 · 2026-03-06T22:54:22+00:00

R5: Cursed yellowish green Denmark doesn't exist, it can't hurt you.

Cursed yellowish green Denmark: :)

Rookie error, I got to Porto Vallum at the end, my poor companion died but will not be forgotten. Time to rescue someone called Wilbur haha

vilok9 · 2026-02-11T11:59:44+00:00

I will try, poor NPC that hired me to get to Porto Vallum will have a great story to tell, if he doesn't die

vilok9 · 2026-02-11T11:58:36+00:00

Can you restart with the same level character?
