" Merchant Republics are now limited by provinces in states, not total amount of provinces. " current saves are useable? Because in my save for Novgorod is nothing changes. Still have limitation to 20 prov's, not states.

It's not 20 States it's 20 provinces IN states...means you can have as much provinces as you want but no more than 20 of them have autonomy below 75%

No

 

[b.arts4]

I'm going to go on a limb and guess no.

Are new nations (fulani etc. that spawn after 1444) in the fetishist areas supposed to have animism as national religion?

an event that gives you a choice between +15Prestige+10Legitimacy, +50Diplo Power, +25Military Power or +1 Stability and, and had a MTTH of 2, while the prerequsites was being Fetishist and either having Makua or Nyasa as primary culture

Well, so much for conquering the world in my Maravi game - I stopped last night because I was getting tired, and discovered (*after* the game patched) that I can't revert my ironman game from 1.16.2 to 1.16.1, only to 1.15. It would be nice to clarify that--Remembrance of the Lion and the Snake were going to take me across the world, and I planned around it.

- Root Out Corruption is now based on your development, not your income.

is this based on total development or development of states? Because with everything being 75% LA this seems like it will just delay it becoming unmanageable.

I loaded up the game as Pate (OPM with wrong religion) and did some math.

The new monthly cost to reduce corruption at 1 corruption per year, is 0.05/development_adjusted_for_autonomy. It used to be 100% of your income. Since income is roughly 0.10/development, corruption costs have been reduced by 50% on average, and way more than that for countries with high trade income/gold mines.

I've seen Johan repeat that he wasn't willing to nerf corruption, so I hope this is not an oversight and that he actually changed his mind. The current situation is more interesting. Corruption is not completely crippling but now I'll have to think twice before I conquer land I can't convert or let my diplo tech tank.

I'd still rather see this mechanic removed altogether so they can add more interesting money sinks and incentives to increase diplo tech, but I feel like it's a step in the right direction.
