I was playing as England/GB, and tried to reduce Austrian influence in the HRE (which is integrated very fast).
I got Tyrol and released it as Styria in then 1620s, hoping to get all the Styrian provinces for 0 AE later on and give a trim to Austria at the same time.
Before I released Tyrol (I mean Styria), the tooltip stated that the cores would disappear in 1644. After I released it, all the remaining Styrian cores had their "expiring date" switched to 1544 (WTF ?
). At the start of the next month, they disappeared (and my plan to prevent further HRE integration had to become much more convoluted).
Would it be possible to :
- Fix these cores dates changing randomly.
- If possible, make the HRE integration harder (more 30 years war events, more HRE reforms etc)
- Ensure that the AI Ottomans become a real threat to Europe (don't let the Arabic/turkish culture belong to the same group, this was an old remain from EU3, but now what would be needed is an event giving cores and not claims on the Mamluks in the 1500s, and possibly less powerful national ideas). This should make Russia and Austria's game harder, which would better for game balance (throughout Europe).
- Vassal feeding is very gamish as it stands. There should be some AE for the overlord. The duration of Vassal/PU integration should depend more on the size of the target...
- The Spanish AI should make a dash to the Carribeans/Aztec land early.
- The AI needs to understand that fights in mountains take time, and therefore very distant ennemy reinforcement can come. Overall, the AI should be wary about mountains and need to know to retreat if it takes more casualties than it inflicts in mountains. It should also consider trying to retreat/regroup its troops to mountains if it is on the defensive.
