I'm a little lost in these calculations.
Is adjusted power ratio = [Your tax base] / [Target tax base]^2
or is it adjusted power ratio = [Your tax base]^1/2 / [Target tax base] ?
The former one. I apologize for any confusion caused by bad naming.

My maths courses are are far away, but isn't it the same? (so long as tax base is positivie, which it should be).
That's what I thought thanks.The result of the first equation is exactly the square of the result of the second equation.
Yeah but (SQRT(50)/10)^2 = 0,5 = 50/10^2, that's the equivalence.
Let us say that you have a tax base of 50, and the target one of 10.
Eq 1: 50 / 10^2 = 0.5
Eq 2: SQRT (50) / 10 = 0.71
SQRT(x) / y is not equal to x / (y*y) unless y is the square root of x.
Well Bleakie said the equation was adjusted power ratio = Taxe base/ (Vassal tax base)^2 which is equivalent with sayingIf that were the equation, then it would be. But it's not.
Since when was diplo-vassalization dependent on base tax? This wasn't mentioned in either the original patch 1.2 changelog or the 1.2.1 changelog.
Well, I never noticed that before. Then again, so far I only extensively played with the Ottomans, and in my only two playthroughs with them I only diplo-vassalized Tripoli and an Ak Koyunlu that was reduced to OPM; didn't get around to trying to do the same with Tunis or any other 3-province Muslim minor, so consequentially didn't get a "cannot diplo-vassalize" message that would've prompted me to check the cause behind it via the tooltip.Since pretty much always? There was always an income component to being able to diplomatically vasssalize a nation.
This is something that I haven't seen in the changelogs as well.They changed the formula but also changed things to allow you to vassalize nations with more than 3 provinces. Overall I like the change although the modifier formula might need some tweaking.
Sorry about that, 43 was indeed very unclear and wrong (it was clearer in my head). By "the same", I meant "equivalent if you apply a square only to the right part of the equation", so yeah 43 does not logically go to 45.You want to quibble. OK.
Post 43: Wrong
Post 44: Right.
Post 45: ????????. (How 43 can be made into that, I cannot see: 43 states that SQRT(x) / y is equal to x / (y*y), not that (SQRT (x) / y )2 is equal to x / (y*y))
Post 46: Right.
Post 47: Save, but what's the point?
