After having finally sat down and played a number of Common Sense games this past week, there's a couple of very basic setup things I would like to see added/changed. Apologies in advance if some of these have been suggested before.
The easiest one to add is that I think Burgundy needs to start with 10 prestige, maybe 15. Now that it starts with all of the PUs, as well as with the changes to prestige, more often than not, I see the duke dying (without the event firing) with -0 prestige and losing all of the PUs before even being able to wage a war either due to regency or being stuck in a war in Africa with Castile but not being able to send any actual troops down there which leads to AI reluctancy in declaring another war of its own.
"Westernization" should be changed to "modernization" now that westernization no longer changes unit types (since El Dorado? or Art of War? Can't recall.) I don't even particularly care if the process remains the same, but it makes more sense at this point to change the name, IMO. Perhaps one also shouldn't be able to "modernize" off "modernized" countries, needing to seek out one of the originals. I'm not sure.
There should be a CB implemented to add Italian provinces to the HRE. I don't care if the AE is the same as conquering, but I would find that far more preferable to the -2 diprep from having the pope vassalized/the huge relations hit for owning Rome yourself.
Thank you for your time!
