The realm rejoices as Paradox Interactive announces the launch of Crusader Kings III, the latest entry in the publisher’s grand strategy role-playing game franchise. Advisors may now jockey for positions of influence and adversaries should save their schemes for another day, because on this day Crusader Kings III can be purchased on Steam, the Paradox Store, and other major online retailers.
It's something I thought about for a while and I might still change my mind. The goal here was to strengthen both Ayutthaya and Lan Na by making their culture more extensive, but I appreciate that people in Northern Thailand have a different ethnic identity.Hi ya. I'm Thai and I just want to say Thai. The Northern Thais are not Siamese. I'm half northern myself and they would call themselves "Khon Muang" rather than "Thai" (a Siamese version of Tai). Just my humble opinion![]()
It will share a mission tree with Ayutthaya, which will have the largest mission tree in Mainland SEA.Is Siam getting a unique mission tree or does it just inherit it from the tag that formed it?
I got a lot of good information from articles published in the Journal of the Siam Society. I recommend 'PIRACY, SMUGGLING, AND TRADE IN THE RISE OF PATANI, 1490-1600' by Francis R. Bradley for example. I also trawled JSTOR for anything interesting using the names of nations from the period as keywords.@neondt my only question would be if you have interesting readings on this area and this historical period -- I was intrigued on what you said about Malacca actually asking Ming support to prevent an Ayuttayan invasion.
Completely agree. No idea why every state has to have limited provinces. States like West/East Burgundy, West/East Sicily are both historically non-existent and practically cringy. 4-6 provinces in a state sounds like a fair number.Given that so many new provinces get added each update, and areas are becoming increasingly excessive in number.
Would it not be better to change the amount of provinces in one area? Currently the aim seems to be for 3-5 provinces in 1 area.
I think it ought to be 4-6 unless its something like the baleares or other areas that represent a couple of islands.
As currently many areas are getting a treatment of hyphenated names, west/east, north/south and while the governing capacity sorta solved this problem, state maintanence and edict spamming is still a thing.
Can't talk specifically about production plans, but I won't be the only one working on 1.31.@neondt is this going to be "your project" while PDX Tinto is setting up and recruiting or are you just laying the foundation here and then work on it together with the Tinto team after vacation/recruitment?
Yes!Are we also going to get mission trees for South East Asia nations in addition to the map rework?
Hope to see some new unit packs coming along.Next week we’ll take a similar look at Maritime SEA - modern Indonesia and Malaysia. In terms of scripted content you can expect plenty of historical events, mission trees, disasters, government reforms, estate privileges, and more from the 1.31 update. We’ll get to these in later weeks, but for now that’s all I have to say. Until next time, have a good week!
Ekhhhem, capital state of Poland, Malopolska, historically most populated and richest...3-province states should be rare.
