EU4 - Development Diary - 13th of March 2018

[DDRJake]

Good day all. We're a mere week away from 1.25 England Update going live and the Rule Britannia Immersion Pack setting sail with it. There's not much left to cover in our dev diaries, so today we will simply be covering the 10 Achievements which will be available in 1.25.

Home and Away: As Wales hold Cardiff, Dublin, Edinburgh, Rome, Paris and London.

Sun Invasion: Own and have cores on Tepeacac, Mexico, Tullucan and Huastec as the Madyas.

Sleepless in Seattle: Have your capital in 2485 (Chehalis) and own 10 Coffee producing provinces.

Philippine Tiger: Recreate the Chola Empire as Cebu.

Empire of Mann: As Mann, conquer all Islands in the world.

Dude, Where’s my boat? - Capture 20 boats with the Boarding Naval Doctrine

Bright Spark: Have 50 Innovativeness

Anglophile: Complete all English and British Missions

Industrial Powerhouse: Have 10 Furnaces built in your nation.

Chop Chop - Have 6 different consorts with one monarch.

Next week we will likely be releasing our Dev Diary a day early, to share our full Patchnotes ahead of the March 20th Release. See you then!

Hmm, this is a fairly sparse Dev Diary from me, jarringly so. Let me bulk it out at the end for my own sanity by plugging that since it's Tuesday, we will be streaming Session 2 of the Rule Britannia Dev Clash. Decide who to root for by looking here:

Is that a new formable nation?

No. The Chola dynasty does rule Cebu at start however (and was supposedly founded by a wayward Chola prince).

 

[DDRJake]

So is 'island' defined to be 1 province surrounded entirely by water?

"Island" here is defined as a land province without a land connection to Stockholm, Panama or Guugu. There are also highlights on provinces you need for achievements in 1.25

 

[DDRJake]

Yeah, owning provinces on continents should be banned in Manx achievement.

I don't think anyone would enjoy losing an Empire of Mann run because they randomly inherit the throne of an OPM in mainland Europe.

Many things seem to have disappeared, most notably the temporary missions for +1 diprep. Those were immensely valuable to get alliances as minors, you could force them to spawn by completing a mission when you're overextended to get "Reduce overextension", and there seems to be no similar way of consistently getting extra dip rep.

The generic repeating missions were done away with in favour of standard missions with much meatier, longer lasting rewards.
