Are you agreeing with me? It sounds like it, but starting with the "nope" is confusing.

If you want to see pure history, read history books or watch some historical movies
I hate again and again this kind of sentences. If you want to see science fiction, read Isaac Asimov or watch some science fiction movie
Saw this bug too. Does not seem to always happen though.
should I ? It's not a bug though, is it ?
Well, you can actually cycle through armies but it isn't usable :
you have to all over the world map first (in the chronologival order you have created the armies) and you don't have an easy way to know which army is selected.
embargoing is good even if you dont have a cot. /QUOTE]
hehe, I guess I missed something here
Anyway, if there's already an embargo there's no need of a new one ... However, who really cares ?
That would be way too radical indeed.
Actually, the AI could simply use this rule :
if it has monopolistic tendancies (ai file), it's at war with target country, owns some COTs and the target country has more merchants in it's COTs then the AI should cancel the trade pact and replace it with an embargo. No need to know anything else about trade.
It isn't perfect but it's better than the current situation where it's so easy to garantee an eternal access to some important COTs.
What about not breaking alliances when you're european and call your allies against a pagan state ?
What about this for chief judge ?
- if you don't have any chief judge you get a 40% penalty for non state culture provinces.
- if you have chief judges in all your cities the penalty drops to 25% and it's linear in between. (like the deflation effect of the governors)
- It's quite logical since a state with a good legal system will probably be nicer to foreigners.
- it makes real big countries a little harder to manage which is good.
about FAAs :
when they'll give 8 to stability they'll be just fine. We don't want them too powerfull since big empires tend to conquer lots of them.
It does seem that opposition to making FAAs even 75% as good as regular manufactories is pretty strong, so maybe I should drop this idea. But would you build them if all they did was provide 8 to stability (and nothing if at stability +3)? I know I wouldn't. Better to save your money for refineries, that come one tech later and actually provide a worthwhile benefit.
Re: ideas
I think this has been requested many times already for EU2 and HoI and it hasn't happened yet. Probably won't happen.
I just finished up my first victory campaign as England. Hurray finally.
Now that that campaign is finished, I was going to load the new patch. So I extracted the patch from the zipped file. It is now in its own folder within EU.
Do I have to manually copy each file from the patch into its own correct folder? Or is there an automatic patch installation file? I can't find anything to automatically install all the files.

okay... i think we are about done here... before we close up, i want to discuss two proposals:
1: Fall of the Mamelukes.
Am I the only one who would like to see the Mamelukes annexed by the OE more often? How about adding an alternative trigger for their demise than the fall of Cairo, say the OE controls Aleppo, Lebanon, and Syria
2: Use of missionaries and the Scourge of Europe:Christians should not be able to convert moslems and vice versa. This would not only be more historically correct it would also solve the ever-nagging problem of the OE converting the balkans. Some Spanish events might need tweaking to account for this change.

as a matter of fact, that would be less historically correct. Spain, Russia, the OE are just some of the nations that did extensive conversion work with their populations. you seem to be focusing on a particular occurance and ignoring many other events in history. i'm sorry if the problem "nags" at you, but the fact is that the ottomans did introduce islam to parts of the balkans.
also, there's no reason to impose an artificial constraint on conversions and solely ban muslim/christian conversions. i don't see how france converting alexandria to christianity is so much more improbable than france converting kyoto to christianity. conversions are, for me at least, a fun part of the game and there's no reason to unhistorically restrict them because of a particular annoying occurance.
Next patch ideas/petitions.
Most of the ideas have been discussed earlier:
1.Vassal of an ally should be invitable to the alliance. Historically vassals followed their overlords, as they were tied to their overlord/suzerain in terms of foreign politics, so this makes sense. I have not yet heard any countering comments.
2.BB gained from annexing a core should be reduced. Maybe a -2BB for being core should be in place, so when you annex same religion you get 5 - 2 = 3BB, and different religion: 3 - 2 = 1BB. This would make sense wouldn´t it? And it would reduce some un-historical BB gains: Spain annexing Granada (My 1 vs 3 original), Muscowy annexing Tver (My 3 vs 5 original) and so on...
3.Diploannexing cores should give you no BB. A fix in a beta was that seceding cores no longer reduced your BB, so this point is no longer open to the "Give and reduce, take and stay reduced" abuse.
These are the most important for now, mentioned alot, but not yet implemented.

Is there not already a thread open on this subject?

I agree with all these proposals, though I'm tempted to say that BB for annexing non-shield provinces should be raised (at the same time that BB for annexing shield provinces is lowered). If you could combine that with an AI change that the computer simply wouldn't annex other AI nations when it was past half its BB-war threshold, you might reduce the number of ahistorical annexations going on.
I agree with your additional proposal 100%
Castellon: I find it strange that all suggestions should go through only one channel. I have been here for a while before I registered and this common thread has been there only for a while. And it would have some more credibility if it was mod approved and stickied, which it isn´t.
You don't gain any BB from annexing provinces with your core shields... (1 province nations are the exception).
Er, yes, in both cases we're talking about annexing countries - presumably the 1 or 2 BB for regular province annexations (0 with a shield) would stay the same.
Tha's not true, they are still worth 1 BB point per province when annexed diplomatically, and only one province countries can be force annexed.
Future Beta patch request
- Prussia province culture changed to German by 1500 through some event.
- Pool of random monarchs for countries like Brabant, Friesland, etc. to prevent the eternal monarch scenario.
