Common Sense Expansion Brings Major Changes

STOCKHOLM – June 9, 2015 –
The Common Sense expansion to Paradox’s strategy hit Europa Universalis IV is available today, and it comes with tonnes of major changes to the core game, making it one of the most significant pieces of DLC yet in the EU4 franchise. With a focus on making your nation work better, Common Sense gives you new tools to make sure your global empire rests on a sound foundation.

Central to Common Sense is the idea of Development – your provinces are now more than an all powerful tax number. You can improve your regions based on tax, trade and military power specifically, giving each a focus or strength. Or, you can develop broadly to prevent crushing losses when a center of manpower falls to the enemy.

We’re also introducing Parliaments, allowing constitutional systems of government new ways to put the power of the people’s representatives to work on behalf of the nation – for a price.

There are a host of other changes to the game, including improvements to the Protestant religion, the creation of national churches, karma for Buddhist rulers and much, much more. And even if you don’t buy the expansion, the free update we provide with every new expansion will transform your play experience in interesting ways. This time, we have modified the role of forts in battle and shaken up the map and diplomatic situation in the 1444 start date.

Common Sense is available at major digital retailers now! Become the king (or doge, or empress or khan) you have always wanted to be.

So if I buy the "Europa Universalis IV: Common Sense Collection" Will that be the main Expansion and all 4 Sprite packs, but neither the Music DLC nor the e-book are included in that right?

Right. The collection includes the base game and the content pack. The book and the music pack is sold separately (batteries not included).

Copy-pasted from this thread:

This is what the different packages contain:
EU4: Common Sense - Includes common sense (which makes sense ;) )
EU4: Common Sense Content Pack - Includes the minor DLCs (Unit packs etc)
EU4: Common Sense Collection - Includes the expansion + Content Pack
The Book and the msuic pack is sold seperatley
(Batteries not included)

making a general FAQ about all of this and sticking to the forum.
