Dumb mistakes you always make

[Chaingun]

I pretty much always end up forgetting the game isn't EU2 at some point and die to AE or OE... much less frequent than back when I started in December though. Well, "dying" is exaggerating perhaps (except in the office MP games...)

You could roflstomp the world in EU2? Not even infamy was there to stop you?

Just asking, since I started with EU3 as my first Paradox game.

There was "bad boy" which to be fair is like AE, except it was a far more simple system with less details to pay attention to. The new system is a lot more fun since AE is local rather than global, but can sometimes surprise me if I forget to look at the interface. Old system was completely opaque but more simple to understand if you read about it on the forums. In EU2 BB gains weren't even shown in interface, though.

OE didn't exist at all.

I tend to forget to check the co-belligerent boxes that I intended when planning my wars.
