I've been away from EU4 for a while and I came back for a relaxing colonization game. Boy, these tribes love overrunning colonies now and I have no recourse whatsoever. On top of that, it seems impossible to fully annex them. After I take all of their provinces, the tribe magically spawns in a border province. I also get to annex lots of magic provinces that I can apparently take from them even though they are not colonized, which means that now colonization is mostly about military conquest since these tribes grow like weeds.
Here are some other very bizarre scenarios:
1. I was colonizing New Orleans and had it up to about 600-700 colonists when a rando tribe suddenly took ownership of the province for no apparent reason. I'm now landlocked out of Louisiana because the tribes have fully colonized everything up the length of the Mississippi River.
2. In a prior game, my Louisiana was 100% overtaken by natives except their one province that's actually in the Mexico CN zone. Now, for some reason this CN is getting all provinces in both Louisiana and Mexico that I colonize. Ummmm, CNs merge now? What?
What the hell happened that the colonization game is such a completely unplayable mess? How am I supposed to defend my own colonies when they get DOW immediately after they are triggered into existence without an army and I have no way to intervene in the wars??
