Hi
Playing Bohemia, I made an alliance with Austria during a war with France. Why can't I call them in to the war?
Are you the warleader? If not, you cant call them.
Hm, a truce between France and Bohemia still enables you to call Bohemia, or not?

is it still not possible to annex vassals with more than 3 provinces? im thinking of vassalizing venice since they have colonies in africa
(1) Would you advise changing from a Feudal Monarchy into an Empire if given the chance? I was offered the opportunity on a Castille game, but found that my Land unit maximum went down and I didn't seem to be making as much money either. Can anyone tell me what the benefits, if any, of such a switch are?
(2) I hear people talking about PU's a lot on this forum, but don't really know the mechanics of going about getting them. I know you can get a PU through pure chance, via a royal marriage, or by using the "claim throne" option and going to war with the target country. Is there any other way of getting one? And is it a policy you would recommend for expansion?
but you should never have more than ±60% of your force limit anyway, as it will tank your economy to build your maximum amount of troops.
It's possible, but you need a large Sphere of Influence to raise your diplomatic skill. It's impossible with a skill of 9, the best you could get before DW (Unless you were Austria)

thanks! what do you mean by sphere of influence? countries being in your sphere or simply your total sphere size? before DW the nations size and military were important when diplo-annexing, i think and since im currently having +500 provinces, that would help a lot.
the diplomatic skill bonus is only when expanding influence on other countries also? i thought the magistrate bonus was the only good thing from the spheres, apart from the cb
As far as I can tell, there are only two kinds of countries in Europa Universalis III: Those that can afford to build to the land force limit even though they don't need to, and those that can't afford not to.If you are a warmonger, Empire is generally a good choice until Absolute Monarchy becomes available later in the game. The drawback is that your land force limit will drop, as it doesn't give the bonus that Feudal Monarchy does (+10%), but you should never have more than ±60% of your force limit anyway, as it will tank your economy to build your maximum amount of troops.

The diplomatic bonus is huge. Any action in the diplomacy screen gets a boost. If you have, say, 30 spherelings, you can usually ally any nation of your religion with the Likely chance, no matter how many allies you or they already have.
uaoh, sounds totally overpowered to me. ill expand my influence then to diplo-annex those +10 province vassals
...getting to 30 nations in you sphere can be quite the acheivement in itself, the last one costing 60 Prestige itself. Though not to much for a dedicated warmonger.
