Venetian conquests resume. You can't form Italy; stay Venice.Georgia isn't Catholic and you're likely to get a forced conversion mission on them. This is one vassal you won't keep. Burning through infamy at 2 a year makes me question why you would want to release Georgia. Ah well, we'll see where this goes.
Finally caught up again, you went on quite an updating binge during that nightmare, didn't you?
That was a very interesting feature. I'm a bit shocked that AI Venice did quite that poorly. It's not just that it couldn't deal with rebels, later on it couldn't deal with other AI nations either. The Protestant conversion was the killer there when suddenly any province could defect. Venezuelan Venice was pretty epic.
Looking forward to seeing where you're taking this now!
you could post this to... don't know where to actually. maybe to the 5.2 subforum? one of the main goals of Paradox should be the creation of an AI that can actually maintain its strength.
The position in which the AI took over was as wors as it can get from the point of view on how the provinces were spread out. Many exclaves all over asia, and long, snaky strings in the middle east.
That means looong walkways, looong times t transport troops overseas, and many chances to get dragged into wars due to the myriad of neightbors Venice has. Also the neighborhood of hordes amplifies all this.
The AI is not really good with such a nasty spread of provinces. If it had been a more solid form, less caucasus, but a united asia minor, and no hordes, it would not have ended so bad.
I agree that he should post this somewhere, but I don't really know where either. What I do know is that it would be good to discuss it somewhere else in the EU III side of things.
Interesting turn of events! But Bohemia is bound to stop being the emperor upon the death of the king, due to the lack of electors... so perhaps it would be prudent to wait until he kicks the bucket to deak with smaller nations? On the other hand, prudent but less epic
