Map Teaser - 27th of May

[Metz]

Gibraltar would get a strait if it weren't for the fact that it'd make all of Africa non overseas to Spain.

What about giving northern Africa high attrition to regulate expansion there until later on?

- Croatia's map color is no longer hideously green

The Gods have answered my prayers, Thank You and the team that changed it.

Vassals keep their religion when released now. We added an interface string to tell you what religion a released vassal will be.

That's great, considering we can ask them to convert to our religion anyway if heretical (and vassalizing heathens should be considered haram anyway). Good to know.

So gone are the days of releasing a country as vassal to get them to convert territory for you then. Sad. I rather liked having Sunni Hungary and Serbia doing all the leg work.

Eeh, can't you force a vassal to convert religion now? Or is that only for the DLC?

You can ask them to switch religions via the subject interactions. Or you can convert the provinces before you release them.

Does that happen regardless of the religion in the vassal's provinces? So if I convert all of the British Isles to Islam, and then release England and Scotland, they'll both still be Catholic?

So gone are the days of using vassals to convert territory then. Sad. I rather liked having Sunni Hungary and Serbia doing all the leg work.

But you'll still be able to use the "enforce religion" option with your vassals in the next update.

I still don't know how trade works sooooooo this won't affect me much

And that is huge change, a significant changer for vassal feeding.

Additionally it borders on silly, if I convert vassal provinces before releasing ...

 

[Krajzen]

Wiz, are 2 DDs awaiting or is yesterday's DD the last one?

Also, patch notes for huge 1.8 patch were posted 2 days before release, how early we will get wonderful new shiny patch notes for 1.12? ;_;

 

[Wizzington]

We do DDs every week.

We usually post patch notes a day or two before release.

Really nothing in Wiz's post suggest that converting provinces change anything ... (except of Common Sense, but ...)

From last DD

... This time we have a feature for Common Sens, that is so large that it is spread over two weeks of development diaries. ...

For me it sound like paywall.

Gee... thanks Paradox ... I already paid for it once

Can we ask for clarification/confirmation Wiz?

So Meath TAG is more important than Republic of Florence, which actually did exist. Go figure

I guess it does mean England can feed Ireland to Meath instead of having to vassalise one of the other Irish minors first, but... Yeah. Still, at least they have a pretty colour.

I know! If only the Republic of Florence was somehow represented on the map, but unfortunately the Tuscany province in 1444 is doomed to forever be wasteland since we have no tag to own it.

 

[chrnno]

Interesting, never noticed being a vassal doesn't count as diplomatic relation.

EDIT: Also just go to localization and change "Tuscany" to "Florence", there all problems solved.

Since AI wont do it, and player could use any other OPM or Scotland I do not really see added value here

How about we rename every province in Italy to "Florence". And make them start off owned by Genoa, who can take the decision to form Florence at admin tech 10, giving them the Theocracy government.

I was thinking we could perhaps use the Tuscany tag to represent Florence, but since that would obviously be completely unreasonable I think we have no choice but to give the land to Serbia.
