ACGEEP Members? Historical Inaccuracy?

...straitjacketing? The Great Big Mod?

The very mission statement begins :

It is a modpack for Europa Universalis III. It is designed to give players greater history-based flexibility, by increasing the number of history-inspired choices each nation is given. It is NOT an attempt to force the game to follow more historical roads or to increase historical exactitude.

While we may look into some slight tweaks to improve historicity of starting positions (ie, in 1453, Portugal *was* more likely to start exploring immediately than, say, Japan), what we're looking to do is increase the number of history-inspired options.

Essentialy the plan is to expand on what Paradox has made, not take away from it.

I'd have to see some examples of "historical inspired choices."

Well, one idea we've been debating is, for example, an event that trigger when a colony is founded, that give you the option to decide whether you want it to be a Penal Colony (possibly increase stab in the overall nation, but start the colony itself with a slight revolt risk) a Settlement Colony (increased pop growth) or a Trading Post (increased economic benefits).

It'd have to be balanced, of course, but that's the general idea.
