I just noticed the scenario Fantasia on the setup screen (not sure if it was there before). It starts in 1500 with only eight playable countries. What's this about then?

In the original EU2, the Fantasia scenario had a few countries and a blank map of the world, you then colonised europe or wherever you were and so on.
It was quite enjoyable

It would work great with some kind of whole world mod, and if it allowed the releasing of vassals... had more colonists, leaders for the nations, had a better AI for each of them....
Would be great with a mod focusing on it.

Yeah, it's more Civ-style. Everything is randomized, there are only random events, and everyone always gets 6 colonists and merchants per year.
No random goods
I want to play Fantasia scenario with no random goods. How can I set it?
And this scenario is good for the beginner.

Not boring.
No, it isn't boring.
In the first 100 years you can learn the basic game concepts. And all the 8 nations have enough territories to contact each other. And sometimes the AI makes itself to fall, and some of its provinces become free making a new nation. So at 1700 there are more than 8 nations!!

By the way, adding more nations to the scenario is really easy... I've added some in Europe for my own enjoyment, you can try this Fantasia with my "amendments"...
Adding even more would be a good idea though - it's still a far too passive game, even with I think 10 nations in Europe.

But in this game you have really chance to conquer all of the known worl (or almost all)!
I'm currently working on such a Mod based upon Arabia Universalis map, with new Tech, new AI, more random events and some more enhancement.
At first I was thinking putting in it all the AU starting nation (some 295 almost !) but the game become to laggish, because of too many explorations, colonizations and wars going on, it is a too heavy burden for CPU calculation....
So I restarted from scratch adding countries in bunch of 30 up to find a good compromise between CPU usage/level of challenge.
It is meant for world-conquest game and confirmed players.
The main problem I'm facing is that AI's countries become very passive once you (the human player) reach a large size, large income, large army.
It seems they freeze scared at death of you !
I will present it soon (a couple of weeks) in the User Modification subforum.
Best regards

As always, any crashes should be reported in the tech support forum along with a saved game (if possible).
