EDIT: Since there are confusion, I'm talking about stacking penalty
I just heard bonus stacking is a thing but how does it work?

Almost any modifier stacks. Most stack additively, but you'd really have to be more specific..
I've heard military bonuses stack. So if you do Brandenburg ideas that give infantry combat ability they might be less effective.
Well, i mean you cant make your enemys deader, so unless the other side is stacking them too at some point you can argue that you have enough.
Combat bonuses might be the easiest, most straight forwards and most boring kind of modifier to stack.
Try finding something else.
Well...let's say you have 2 separate sources of 15% morale. They'll just give you 30% morale. Same with unit combat ability. If you heard they are "less effective", that might just be the logic that at a certain point, you don't NEED any more bonuses. Plus, going from 3 morale to 3.5 morale is a bigger deal than 5 morale to 5.5 morale - relative differences. But essentially, any modifiers to military power are...good. But hardly needed. Especially as Brandenburg
Because it explains stacking penalties. I dont know how stacking works in this game, so I aks.
Your homework.
This game has a wiki too. If you are able to understand EvE online then EU4 should pose no problems to you.
Orly?
This game has no stacking penalties, only hardcaps in some places.
There are diminishing returns to some multiplicative stacking but otherwise there are no penalties.
It was my impression it had, thats why I asked although I didn't specify in the OP that I was talking about penalties. My bad.
That explains alot.
People, like me, were under the impression that you asked about things like going to 80% RCC via clever use of game mechanics.
My biggest mistake is thinking that everyone thinks like me when only 3% of the population thinks like me lol.
BTW, your edit to the OP still suffers from this....
As you've now discovered "stacking penalty" (ala EVE) isn't a thing in Paradox games, so basically everyone reading this thread will think you're talking about stacking negative modifiers as opposed to something like diminishing returns.
The thread still made me lol...
