    Defender of the Faith tiers should not be based on the number of following nations

    Posted: 11 Jun 2020 05:36 AM PDT

    Are 50 small catholic states in Germany really representative of a stronger faith than a single Sunni nation that controls the rest of the world? I don't think so. My proposal for a better system is to make the strength of a faith determined by how much development of that faith is controlled by nations of that faith (development of a faith in a province does not contribute if it does not match the religion of its owner). This has several advantages:

    1. It eliminates the penalties for expanding into nations of your religion. A united Muslim world, in the current system, is actually much weaker as a religion than when split into the tens of states in which it begins in 1444. Uniting the people of your faith under a single banner should not be a bad thing.
    2. It encourages you to spread your faith. If you are claiming the title 'defender of the faith' you are not interested in tolerance. You are interested in converting the heretics and heathens of the world and spreading your god across the globe. A person declaring eternal jihad is not interested in simply sitting by and letting anyone worship whatever they want.
    3. It encourages you to liberate provinces of your faith from heretic and heathen governments. If development only counts towards the strength of a faith if it is controlled by a government of the proper faith, it encourages nations to liberate their fellow believers from heretic and heathen nations. e.g. Catholics can rescue their brethren before protestant princes can convert them and vice versa.
    4. It encourages you to declare war upon states of your religion if the target state is practicing tolerance. A catholic Austria would not be impressed by a neighboring Bavaria that says it is catholic, but allows protestants to reside within its borders. Austria would want to conquer those provinces and convert the heretics.

    I like the move toward a more dynamic DoF system but it still needs a little work for balance and just to make sense.

    I am in love with the new Estate system

    Posted: 11 Jun 2020 03:57 AM PDT

    To preface this, I am just as disappointed as everyone else with the amount of bugs and broken mechanics (HRE by 16th century, paid expel minorities). Besides that though, this new Estate system is amazing! It brings back the part of the old mission system I loved, the short term goals with nice little benefits. It also gives the ability to have consistently loyal estates and actually requires you to manage them throughout the years, giving something to do while you wait for truce timers or AE to run down or any other number of things instead of the old click every 20 years for Mana buttons. The privileges are a great balancing act that fade away towards the mid late game with absolutism, making you actually evaluate what you need instead of just maxing Absolutism every time. Add more mechanics like this, and I will play forever. But also like, do more QA testing before release.

    I can't believe paradox would release a dlc this unpolished. It is despicable that I pay real money and this is the quality I get. Not only is this dlc literally unplayable, it is downright garbage with game breaking immersion such as this

    The AI in Ireland is currently broken and it allows for a solid start for Luck of the Irish.

    Posted: 11 Jun 2020 08:17 AM PDT

    I'm not sure if this is caused by the new patch or not but i have never seen it before.

    TL:DR The Irish minors in Ireland cut their armies down to 1/2/3 max allowing a player to quickly snipe them with an army of 7 or more and siege the land down, making it easy to have all of Ireland other than Pale in the 1450s.

    So my first achievement run was going to be the Kingdom of God but because the shadow kingdom is broken i couldn't continue, my friend noticed in their game England had been pathetic was getting easily beat so we jokingly decided to see if we could go and take advantage. As we both started as Kildare we noticed that all the minors were immediately disbanding their armies down to 1/2/3 units with some of them just being Cav which is hilarious actually. (I think we laughed for a solid 5 minutes after discovering this)

    Screenshot of Ireland in the first days after unpausing - https://imgur.com/a/iS7o8UD

    So, as shown by the screenshot, their armies are max 3 troops whereas you can get up to 7. This means you can declare war on neighbouring nations and immediate snipe their armies and sit 1k troops on the province to stop them making anymore. Even if you can't snipe them straight away or if you are fighting two nations it takes a few months to build 1 troop so you have plenty of times to hunt the armies down then siege them down.

    With this, you can quickly blitz Ireland pretty quickly and in my own experience i had all of Ireland minus Silgo (Allied with Scotland) and Pale by 1460. This gives you a solid foundation to go on to get luck of the Irish (which both myself and my friend have now done), you still need to grovel to England and hope they don't attack you but even if they do you would have probably spend 20 minutes max on the start and can easily restart.

    I will leave my strategy down below for any who want to replicate it, my friend used it as well so it is pretty reliable although you may require a restart or two to get the right alliances.

    I don't know why the AI is doing this but i suspect it is something to do with the AI getting rid of troops to save money or something similar.

    Strategy - Start the game up and fabricate on Offlay and Leinster, ideally they will only ally each other (They normally do) but if they only ally another minor you can easily kill them, obviously restart if they ally England. The goal here is to take out all the minors who border England first because they are first on the list for vassalisation which you do not want.

    Once you have fabricated on those two start fabricating on Tyrone, once you take Offlay and Leinster you can complete a mission (If you own Rule Britannia) to give you claims on everything but the North and Pale, you can do this without the DLC you just won't get the free claims which makes it a bit slower.

    While you are attacking Offlay and Leinster (declare on the one with the least allies) your claim on Tyrone should finish up. Once the first war is over move your troops for the Tyrone war, they will most likely have allied another minor but you can use this war to take that one too, if they have allied England declare war on their ally, if their ally is someone you can't get a claim on restart.

    I would advise that you then declare war on Ulster (or an ally of theirs if they are allied with England) while the war with Tyrone is on going (After you have sieged them down or before if you are confident you can destroy the new armies with your 1 stacks on Tyrone + their allies) just in case England decides to take on an new Irish ally since their old one was annexed.

    Also i will add that England will get high AE with you so make sure you are constantly improving relations when you can.

    With those wars over you have probably conquered most of the Ireland and probably have about 3 other minors left. You may get a collation against you at this point in Ireland but if you are quick enough you can snipe all their armies even if all the remaining minors join (in my case i had a war declared against me by the collation but they had about 5 troops between sooo). So just mop up what you can, its highly likely Scotland will have an Irish ally, if you can't get at them yet that is fine just be patient and wait for a good opportunity. In my case i built up enough to build a fort in Ulster, from taking money from the Irish minors, and was able to attack Silgo and repulse the Scottish armies at the fort.

    After this it is a case of waiting and playing the diplomatic game, in my case the first time i tried this i allied France but England still attacked me and i had to restart, in my second try i was able to get a RM with England and France as an ally then England also as an ally which eventually led to me getting land in Scotland (had to separate peace cause i don't trust the AI not to be greedy).

    Your game can go pretty much anyway at this point so i will just add some points -

    - Always be watching your relations with England and checking to see if you can get RM.

    - Before you attack the Irish minors make them rivals if you can for PP.

    - Improve relations with England's rivals/any strong powers you can, i ended up with England, France, Portugal and Denmark in an Alliance at one point.

    - Be very opportunistic and attack Scotland/occupy their land if allied with England if you can and separate peace them if you have to get land.

    - Lastly, you aren't getting help from your allies. Your allies are deterrents or if you are lucky useful for occupying England's European allies. I was able to get the pale/mann and give France Caux simply by my allies occupying England's allies. and myself holding the war-goal. Unless you can lucky nothing is getting through the English wooden wall for a while.
