Italian ambition?

[Retetop]

Hi
I started a game as Naples, broke free from the union, annexed and diplo-annexed my way through Italy, and got all the provinces and cores I needed to form Italy. I formed it and didn't get any achievement. It says I'm playing ironman, tried to use some cheats to check and they didn't work. Year is 1550...

Any suggestions?

Your admin tech is too low.

It's formed, and my tech is in lvl 10...

Ironman?

 

[Retetop]

Yes...
Do I need to capture the Italian region to get the achievement?

taking a game across patches disables achievements. If That isn't the issue I don't know what is.

It's a fresh 1.4 save.

Ironman is kinda broken right now.. you can't really say if its working or not from save to save

Did you start in 1444?

Started from Ottoman bookmark.

Any tag changing countries seem to be broken right now. Sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't.

If you want your Ironman game to stay intact, don't form any nations - Unexpected behavior and no official position from Paradox at this point in time.

Might this also happen with Ireland?

I was planning to form Ireland in my current game on the way to getting the Luck of the Irish achievement. If forming Ireland will break my Ironman save game, than perhaps I am better off staying as Tyrone?

Does backing up the save help this problem?

You can back up ironman saves?

You can back up ironman saves?

Yes, the save is in the Steam directory on your local drive (I'm not at home at the moment or I could check for the full directory name). If you copy the file which is saved there at the end of your play session, you can replace a corrupted Ironman save (assuming that your aren't copying the corrupted version).

Upon starting the game, the files sync with the Steam cloud. On the chance that you start the game and the Ironman save is corrupted, you can exit the game, exit steam, and manually delete the save file from your Steam directory and replace it with the copy. If this file is valid, the next time your game files sync with the cloud, the game will be Ironman again.

Actually, there is a position from Paradox. The tag changing bug is supposed to be fixed in v1.4.1.
