Having a blast with new mission tree for Ethiopia (one of my personal charm nations) and overall changes in Origins (while encountering hilarious and not so bugs - nevertheless, fun prevails over frustration). While old events sometimes intervene with current mission tree and 'Modernize the Army' mission has veeery steep requirements before MIL20 (which I am proud to have met - 80AP+75AT is no freaking joke) overall tree feels 'alive' and even seemingly unnecessary push to 'Market of the West' is actually beneficial, have interesting ways to complete and worth a mission slot. And I tip my hat to however came up with itinerant capital system - one particular aspect of this system - the fact that trading capital moves with your capital if they are same province is a blast. I always found it frustrating as Ethiopia to spend tons of diplo points to move it several times (and you really have to do it several times to optimize - first to Gulf of Aden, then to Alexandria and that's a minimum - the 'end' point be Genoa). And now, utilizing this new system, you can do it much much cheaper! And save diplo points for developing your new capital for a better trade power in said capital. So I moved it to Aksum(mission to improve 5 times)->Adulis(restore Adulis, moving trade capital to gulf)->Cairo(moving trade capital to Alexandria node). And now I have problem - if I will take Restore Aksum decision, it will be moved back....to backwater old and grumpy Aksum. So my nit picking suggestion for possible change here - make capital movement optional, like a separate event, something similar to Mughal events when they can move capital around when conquering new parts of India.
