Reactions:
I suggest you temporarily remove the inflation one for the AI. The African and American nations are skewing it, due to not being programmed to spend the 18k gold they've saved up. Wiz has been confirmed on wanting to fix this, so it's definitely a bug.

(Also Fastest Siege is going to be one day, due to assault. Not really worthy of a record imo.)

Alright, I''ll remove it until it has been fixed. Thanks for the suggestion.
 
I suggest you break out "Fastest Tech Maxing" into awards for each starting tech group. So it would go like: Fastest Tech Maxing by a Western Starting Nation, Fastest Tech Maxing by an Eastern Starting Nation, etc.

Eh, perhaps in the future. If anyone else supports this then I wouldn't mind putting it in. Just don't want to clog things up with repetitious records
What... 20?
Ah, so the max is same for everyone? Like I said, I appreciate the input. My game time in Eu4 only totals 28 hours at the moment, so I am not fully of the game mechanics as of yet.


Anyways, Post your entries, people! If you already posted your game in the post your empires thread, chances are you can probably get one of the records. All of them are open for the taking!
 
Many of the unifications are just silly, its just a rush to adm tech 10
Would you mind clarifying on which ones you are speaking of? Depending on the requirements they may be removed.
How about "Highest Trade Income"? There's already a good record to beat, shown in the "Post Your Ridiculous Trade Income" thread.
Sounds like a good record to put it. Thank you!
 
You'll accept non-ironman games? I dunno........ Ironman (at least medium difficulty, lucky nations is always enabled) is very different from non-Ironman (reloading possible, can be easy difficulty, can have lucky nations off, can have player bonus). Not comparable at all.
 
I like this. I would however prefer to "compete" in end score hall of fame for each tiered country. Would be a nice incentive for me to play the nation until the end. One category for Iron man and one for regular. It might sound harsh but the majority of the other records could be removed when it comes to my taste.
 
Separate the ironman,mp,sp mod / non mod category, cause things can rly get wierd with comparing records and somebody can get advantages cause of that, also in future when new major dlcs come out that change stuff add like pre dlc records.
Add Final score category,longest war(although thats discussable cause people can simply not sign a peace treaty) and maybe add the warscore gain in land and sea battles aswell ,cause this is nice:

Thats all i can come up atm and here are my entries

Longest siege for me so far 1772 days it was lvl 9 fort
http://cloud-2.steampowered.com/ugc/597012636932582923/CF8C96BC989182D63455CFBAB0A595C242B4A3A4/

Does this categorize as notable land battle?(aka 170k trops and 8 different countries,its 1 sided thou), maybe add also max amount of countries in 1 battle for both land and sea)
http://cloud-2.steampowered.com/ugc/597012552761188119/A63AB9A2B1964750CF647500AC8EDFA71C6D0360/

All of my entries are from ironman game with Brandenburg-Prussia-Germany if you want even deeper categorization

Due to the way score is calculated, that would be mostly a matter of rushing getting to 1st in all three aspects of the game and maintaining it throughout the game.
 
What about "Most diplomatic power used in a peace deal"? I have a submission for the AI category of this:

Before anything, let me say that due to the responses, all records now require Ironman to be on!


Missing Fastest Persian unification (see PersianNation).
Ah, thank you. Added in!
Though I think there is an achievable maximum of 12k ducats / month, so once we get there, the record is set in stone. Someone on that thread did some calculations.
Eh, I don't think it's very likely for people to reach it. And if they do, then we'll just go from there.

Two of your records have been submitted. The third does not count as a notable battle, I'm afraid. A notable battle would be something like 3000 men beating 40,000 guys, or something else pretty crazy. You can check the EU3 thread for more info.
I also added several of your record suggestions. Thank you!

View attachment 89601
I like the record idea so I added it in. However, there will only be a human category for it, since there shouldn't be very many AI records.
