Well, personally I like to play in a historically plausible fashion. I get a kick out of role-playing so to speak. So, if I were to play a tiny minor and my provinces were all occupied, I would concede the game and resign.
The AI-controlled major nations can't do this however, so I suggest not having any tiny playable AI nations in your scenarios. I always disable all other majors in my campaigns since I feel it is more accurate.

That´s exactly, how I see it. I resign, when I have no unconquered province left. And, although I appreciate Laruku´s efforts in making scenarios, the problem is, that he upgraded 8 minors to majors. So in his scenarios we have always seven unconquerable minors (the AI will never resign!)

Vurbil: Don´t worry, You can always erase all majors from the eug.file except the one You want to play. They are all fully annexable then !

Ah, okay, that sounds good. But won't erasing them mean they will no longer get their historical leaders and such?

Maybe could you loose at Europa Universalis ?

Playable nations are not annexable, mostly at my advice, due to a playability thing.
You, as player, will ever have a chance to recover.

Why not changing this.

When you can be subjected to *forced* annexion (not diplomatic of course) by another country, just make a message box pop up and says :

Your country was annexed, included in the mighty Empire/Kingdom/etc of...

Play a new game ?

That will solve problems of minors being playable and not annexable.

And then, try to survive as Granada

If you are amazed by the outcome of a country like Granada, you'll cry when I publish my AAR playing Thuringen. ALL the other countries were anexable, as you'll see soon on this screen.

About playing Venice in GC and dont knowing what country to erase I got the answer :

You DONT have to erase any country. In my one GC , willing to play Sweden I edit the earliest scenario with Sweden Playable, select all text beggining by
{ { SWE...
bla bla bla
...
}}
and copy it at the back of the list of country in GC scenario ( take care of the closing } anyway and 'TaDam' I can choose Sweden and still have the other major country in. The fact is the number of countries in GC wasn't the maximum we can playso ther is no problem adding one.

I have a question myself:

In my GC I am considering trying to Annex Nederland by War, is it possible ? I am tired of fighting them for colonies ( 3 at a time is so slow ) so I am looking for direct kill. As it wasnt a major power at start perhaps it can work but it is not an easy task ( taking at least 30 years to manage a way to land invaded them through vassal countries, and still need something like 210.000 people to conduct the campaign ) so I rather know if it was possible before trying . And if it was possible... perhaps Johan can correct this in a further patch ;o)
'cause it will be really a game broker.
