I highly recommend a few campaigns of that one african country south of swahili. its some silly silly fun with a continent of people with no forts and no care of the reasons of war other then "our tribe is better then theirs"
I'm not gona lie the reason why this game is so good is that they developed every part of the world. theres some crazy shit that happenes in tribal life. they have a gold province that becomes a cot and there where times where I held onto that province like it was (and probably was) my only chance at life and I held. you can just gigglestomp your one border country and his allies over and over again. good times good times. |

many people on the official forums lament the lack of development  outside of europe there is very little historical depth. mongals, persians, indians etc etc all had interesting histories but they dont have any mechanics to model that like europe having the papacy and the hre |

Why don't you put auto hunt rebels on on every stack you got?
The problem arises when you have about 40 rebel stacks and you only have around 5-6 stacks of 10-15k hunting rebels AND you are fighting a (previously) multi-front war. War Exhaustion increased national revolt risk by mofo 19%, which creates a shit ton of neverending rebels. The rebels eventually take some provinces, as 5-6 stacks can't kill fast enough for all of them. Then, when they siege a rebel province, that is where I have to swoop in and make them assault the province instead of wasting a whole year sitting there. The exact thing is happening to me right now as I'm fighting a Castille-Russia-Portugal alliance, about 180k HRE vs 300k C-R-P. Fuckin rebels and castillians and russians and portugese
So don't max out your WE. You should also be able to support a lot more than 200k troops. |

Well I guess that's because this time zone was centered mainly around Europe and their colonial ventures so that's why they focused on Europe. But yeah it could be better |

| well i think they'll release magna mundi some time in january, it was a detailed mod for eu3 and is now made into standalone game, hopefully that will fix the europe issue |
| | Imagine a place where the Alps meet the Mediterranean, where you can pick autumn fruits in the morning, bathe in the Adriatic in the afternoon, and go night skiing in the evening…It’s Slovenia! |

Yeh I'm just too lazy to do all of the clicking and shit.
I looked at the WE and most of it is from attrition. Is that from assaulting provinces? Because I got a shit ton of manpower to burn (400k)

I wonder if I can conquer Eastern Europe with Iraq....
I would either go up to when they are a country, or I would day 1 release them, save, and load up as them and go from there.
Hm. |

Too many of your units sit in the same province... Split them up some more and there should be no more attrition.
I had exactly this same problem... Cost me like 20-30 years to figure out whats wrong (fun 20-30 yeras when you own all of SA and a decent chunk of NA with revoltsrisks over 40i ). |

It has a few great events. when my tribe cheif died and his son wasn't of age yet the whole nation went to shit. the event said "the tribe has been in peace for to long, the tribe is restless and the cheif isn't stong enough to keep it down" or something
the one choice you had to pick was "live by the sword, die by the sword" and rebels open up in your entire nation. epic moment. |

That's a Tribal Succession Crisis. It spawns patriots/nationalists on every uncored province and pretenders on one random cored province, and fires whenever your king dies in a Tribal Despotism, Steppe Nomads, or (if I recall correctly) Tribal Federation. |

| one think i do like about death and taxes is how after you get very high war exhaustion you get an event where you need to kill off either your monarch or your heir. Since one of the two almost always is a 3/3/3 idiot, this makes me happy. |

I just got Castille by marriage when playing as Sweden. How am I supposed to be able to afford all the armies that suddenly...
Still got a smile on my face 20 minutes later. |

Thanks a lot. I just imagined a Paradox interpretation of WH:40k, and it was fucking glorious. Then I realized it will never happen.

Have you tried to verify game files integrity under the properties -> local files for the game?
If that doesn't help, standard advice, update drivers, sound, video and so on. (I got a CTD yesterday, no clue why.)
Edit, btw why does War Exhaustion go up into the 20's in ~one year of war where I win ~20 battles and lose 3 without going below half manpower at any time?Last edit: 2011-11-17 00:05:56 |
