I would kill for trade automation features. Army automation would be nice too. Trade I will never understand well and I don't always feel like doing the micro of armies.

What is "Unconditional Surrender" in the context of this game, which Johan mentions briefly in the video? That's not been in any of the Dev Diaries or other stuff I've seen about Mare Nostrum so far.

Maybe it happens when a nation that is over its infamy level is defeated by a coalition? Then its torn apart with provinces costing less than what they normally are.

I'm assuming it's a mechanic put in place to avoid what happened to Groogy when he was Lithuania in the last dev multiplayer game.

What happened?
Ottomans and some other guys attacked him. Pretty much destroyed him. He tried to offer a surrender but the Ottoman player would not accept anything Groogy offered. Apparently his goal was the utter destruction of Lithuania. Johan and Wiz had a little brainstorming session about a type of peace offer where the player could surrender (with 100% worth of warscore in the offer) and the attacker had to accept.

To be honest 14.99 euro seems to be too much for this DLC.

Failed to mention the expansion/rework to Scotland's provinces :p

£14.99 is a bit steep though for what we're getting in the DLC, especially when you throw in the price of Content Pack on top of that.
Although the free update is really substantial, which kind of counter balances it. Think I'll wait and see what everyone thinks about the DLC first (for a change).

Loving these new Dev Diary videos by the way!

I heard that Inverness won't have unique ideas when Mare Norstrom comes out?
Is it possible if we suggest some ideas by this weekend that they will be considered before the next patch? I was kind of hoping to play as them but if its just general ideas I think I might have to go and make a custom nation.
