  • Europa Universalis IV
Ugh, playing as Georgia right now... I got this "Would you like to lose 25 army tradition or 50 prestige?" event around 5-6 times already. My Army Tradition is constantly at 0.

Playing against Ottomans and Russia, this is essentially unplayable.

The popup says I'm getting these because my mentality is too "defensive" or something, even though I'm in and out of wars constantly? I'm not quite sure what I'm doing wrong. I play the game the same way I do with every other nation but this is the first time I've been hit with this event like crazy.

Is this just bad luck?

It's one of the events triggered by unlocking the Defensive idea group. All groups should have both good and bad events, and it should be completely random which of the eligible events happen. So it's a big part just bad luck.
