A question of my own - how can I speed along the industrialisation process? I have my taxes set high to keep the poor high and make the rich poor, I have my soldier budget low to get soldiers into craftsmen and I have my national focus set on craftsmen in my most populous state, but the process is still very slow. Perhaps 100-200 new craftsmen per month..
Can't say about Byzantium, but Yugoslavia and Greece don't.
Always wondered myself ... they just sort of melt away back into the general population, waiting for the next revolution.
Is Austria the only country that can create the SGF, or can I pick Bavaria and form an third german power?
If your population is more Jingoistic does that give you more casus belli-giving events? (and does Anti Military give you less?)
I've noticed I rarely get any (at least compared to EU3). In my Transvaal game I got one on Portugal and GB both; in my Belgium one I haven't gotten any. What's more is I've seen lots of posts about playing as Belgium where you are encouraged to take Dutch territories/colonies in the inevitable wars they declare on you, but I've never gotten a legitimate way to do so. Any tips?
I want to change the infamy added for a war goal to 0. Mainly, I want to see what would happen if the world just went berzerk. What line in cb_types to modify?
INFAMY_ADD_TO_SPHERE = 2,
INFAMY_RELEASE_PUPPET = 0.5,
INFAMY_DISARMAMENT = 5,
INFAMY_REPARATIONS = 5,
INFAMY_TRANSFER_PROVINCES = 3,
INFAMY_PRESTIGE = 2,
INFAMY_CONCEDE = 1,
INFAMY_STATUS_QUO = 0,
INFAMY_ANNEX = 10,
INFAMY_DEMAND_STATE = 5,
edit, also, any way to reduce a truce to 1 day?
BASE_TRUCE_MONTHS = 60
...but that jingoism either increases MTTH (mean time to happen) ...
Rich and literate craftsmen. Also make sure your bureaucrats are not below par.What is the best way to get clerks? I have tried prompting them with NFs but I am still not getting very many.
Belgium doesn't have any cores outside its own starting borders. You have to suck up the infamy (or get a lucky CB event) if you want to expand.I've not played as Belgium, but I have played as the Netherlands. The Netherlands has a decision where it renounces all Dutch cores on Belgian territory; could you have triggered a similar decision for Belgium? If not, you should be able to take Dutch territories in mainland Europe, but not necessarily colonies with no infamy.
