I won't count the Aztec game since they're next to unplayable due to the sacrifice bug, but I'm playing a papal state game. So far I've entered the HRE, Kicked Aragon's butt and took part of Naples(Forgot to release them unfortunately), conquered Siena, and allied Austria, Castille, and Hungary, no France since they're being butts about Avignon. Oh right, I also got event spawned peasant rebels in Avignon that I won't ever be able to kill due to France and Provence both hating me to much to give military access.

Playing as Catalonia, finally i could upgrade my Duchy to Kingdom (prestige problems). France collapsed, Utrecht formed the Netherlands, Livonian Order formed Kurland, Novgorod formed Russia.

Empire of Silesia with nice, smooth borders. Ottomans never really pushed into Europe. Albania only recently lost many provinces. Huge Poland allied with Lithuania (no PLC, no PU) was the toughest enemy for most of the campaign. Britain finally started to sensibly send serious stacks into mainland to help its allies. The Papal States and Hungary doing surprisingly well. Scandinavia made by Norway.
Overall I'm pleased with the CS/1.12 changes. Made the game better.

My Ming Empire took off last night. We were blessed with a 5/3/3 who took the throne at 19 and lived until he was 80. We got a lot of shit done and Ming is blobing out nicely. We've even begun colonizing the South Pacific. One thing I did notice though is that Muscovy got completely smashed by the time I revealed them in the fog of war. Anyone else finding this with AI Muscovy?

Yup Muscowy got wrecked by Novgobear and the Hordes on my game too but Ming AI didn't do really much though. Is it really much more fun without the mandate of heaven?

What's the sacrifice bug?

Sacrifice just doesn't exist, or at least if it does it is in a place so obscure Waldo is sitting next to it. When Paradox put in all the vassal stuff for this patch I believe they forgot to adjust the Nahuatl pages accordingly, they don't have the option to sacrifice anywhere in the diplo or vassal tabs, and the spot in the vassal tab it used to be on has been replaced with 'embargo rivals'.

In my livonian order campaign they start quite well. Basicly they hold all provinces east of Novgorod (owned by me) and starting Lithuania and the TI in the east (even more). I must admit I helped with Novgorod, but I waged war against Muscovy quite some too. Still they survive early 1500's.

I started an Ayuthayya game with the intention of forming Malaya, since I found out it was in fact possible. I allied Lan Na, have annexed Ligor, and am about to fabricate a claim on Malacca. My only worry is that the very fast expanding Pasai(they have already annexed Siak and those other guys, and I am just over ten years in) will beat me to it. All I can hope is that Pasai is too busy dealing with overextension(assuming the ai is even affected by it) to continue expanding.

Hungary. Wrecked Austria very early, grabbing Wien for the eventual westernization. I'm not really sure if I'm going to continue this game, though. France's dynasty ended up on mine very early and I'm now the overlord in a union with them. Yay? There's nothing really left to do as a result.

On a related noted, Hungary was massively buffed.

Bohemia. Took 2 provinces off of Hungary very early on. Enjoying the fort mechanics and the new fast wars.

Started as Ravensburg... and quickly got bored of it. So then I restarted as Ainu, developed the hell out of my provinces while letting my Admin tech rise to try and get to Ideas ASAP to allow me to get a Monarchy sooner rather than later so I can drop my tribal... watched Japan unify in less than 10 years and fear I'm about to get curbstomped since I don't think I'll have any way for my piddly 9 unit army to stop what they'll send at me.

Also thinking I shouldn't have placed my fort I built in my capital, but instead the province right across the sea. But not sure if the defensive bonus of trying to hold there is worth it vs letting them besiege and get attrition. But no data to know for sure yet.

well. i dont have the DCL but anyway. i started my first CS patch game with Austria. Was called into an early PU war against bohemia over lithuania. won the war, ruled over lithuania but got a HUGE aggressive expansion impact which led to an undefeatable coalition. funny thing, while at war a second coalition formed and also dowed me, and some more dows from those neighbor pansies...
quit and restarted only to wonder what a bore province development is, i.e. no development. a few buildings and no way to improve province development status, seriously?

I'm playing traditional Hansa game, which I usually start after every major update/DLC, and I'm kind of lost. It's much slower to conquer, and game pace is slower too and money isn't flowing like it used to do. That's okay and I kind of like it and I'm trying to play tall atm.

I have nice base provinces and zeeland cored, so next step would be antwerp -> calais -> london. But...I'm falling behind in tech, and don't have idea what to take for first idea group. I was thiking either administrive (for sweet mercaneries and even sweeter cheaper core cost) or colonialism, to get to n-america. Also I have no idea how would be wise to upgrade provinces, what development % has to do with it. So we'll see...

Ironman Poland: Picked on Teutonic Order. I called in Lithuania & Pomerania. Forgot how zones of control work, which lead me to losing a large portion of my army. Then my AI allies couldn't organize their armies to help (they were broken, apparently fixed in the upcoming hotfix). Then rebels in eastern Poland. Then ragequit when a 33 T.O. stack came out of nowhere and crushed the remains of my army.

Awaiting the hotfixes before I play anymore.

Playing two different games concurrently: An England>GB game to play with Parliament and a Good Old France game to have fun.......

The England Game: France has NEVER declared war for its cores. England remained catholic and Treaty of Torsedillas is OP. ALL remaining colonizers are catholic except Norway and I have locked away Canada, Eastern US, and Caribbean with Colonial Nations.

My France game is chronicled in an AAR: Gallia Invicta Part Deux. The only thing stopping the blobbing is manpower and coring costs.
