I don't get why everyone got their panties in a twist about Sunset Invasion.
I mean literally this ENTIRE GAME is pretty much "lets see how crazy we can make history" so I don't get why it upsets people so much.
I hear there are games where veteran players actually TRY to make history turn out the way it did, and apparently that is insanely difficult.
So yeah, I don't get why its an issue.

Also: I was wondering about multiplayer! Specifically how many people can play it at once? And also can we set up some kind of game/league kinda thing?

Don't quote me on this, but I think 32 is the max or something. and I'd love to join a multiplayer game, as now I have the game through steam thanks to a really nice bay12 user!

These kind of games never last long, but they're always fun. I have hosted a bay12 Rurikovich MP a while ago that lasted a month or two I think.

I have SI (as a part of a DLC bundle), but I disabled it for the simple reason that I don't enjoy the massive geopolitical shift they cause.

@Multi, I wonder if we could make a family of landed brothers/sisters in a single nation, each person playing one of them, and attempt to gain control over a kingdom for your branch of the initial dynasty. Habsburgs: The Game.

That...sounds pretty epic.
Main problem I think I would have though with this, and multiplayer in general, is that I am a dirty cheater in this game. I just get fed up with some system or another screwing me over that I open up the console and "fix" that particular problem
Example: In one game I was trying to assassinate this faction dude who was getting a bit too powerful, but no one would join the plot because EVERYONE LIKED HIM. So what I did was I went to have him excommunicated but the POPE loved him too. I have NO idea why this dude was so popular.
But yeah then I cheat killed him and it spiraled into me conquering Europe with my doomstacks of cheat-spawned Vikings. Yeah I have a problem.

So back on topic, is there some kind of "cheat disabler" in multiplayer? Because I have serious impulse control on that.

Oh, if you want to cheat in your single-player next time, try the fun way: save your game, load the save as the person you're having trouble with, fuck shit up epically ('yo, courtier dude, you saved my life? OFF WITH YOUR HEAD!' *chop* 'Actually, sorry for that dude, give his family half the money I have.'). You get the oportunity to try doing on purpose what you'd normally avoid, and it's pretty hilarious.

Well it still gives the problem that I straight up can't play a fair game. I would LIKE to, but I get so frustrated and rage and then there go the doomstacks and suddenly Iceland rules the universe.

Paradox released a little teaser.

Pilgrims? Migrants? Traders? It'll be interesting to find out.

It's either better crusades with playable Templars, or better hordes with the map expanded to the east.

That's what I hope it will be though :v

I'm hoping for land trade.


Been trying out CK2+, cause it's the only mod I've really noticed that seems to be convertable to EU4, and playing as a pagan is boring as hell. All the factions are stated to be "rebellious", I've raised their levies for longer than I have with any other mod, I've made absolutely no effort to appease them. And there has only been a single easily-crushed rebellion so far, and all successions have been 100% calm. The long wait between wars means I can't even accidentally fuck up and start a war when all my levies are dead. Everyone who could oppose me(read: just Prussia) has broken due to gavelkind. Nearly all my neighbours are 1-2 province counts and dukes, and the ones who aren't, don't have any decent casus-belli pick a fight(yay, let's start a world war cause of 1 province). Basically absolutely nothing is happening aside from the Karlings inheriting each others kingdoms and me blobbing by getting single provinces every 5 years.

And the usual reason why I expand (MOAR RETINUES) has been made considerably smaller. I have literally nothing to do. And aptly, the current king is depressed.

I can certainly understand slowing down the rate of expansion, but changing the entire pagan playstyle from "WARWARWARCONQUEST!OHSHITNORSEAREINVADINGANDMYARMIESAREDEAD" to "A pleasant stroll through the neighbourhood every 5 years" is a bit much.

Anyone know any good mods that can be exported to EU?
