HUH. Lets see what happens when I join the war

Ok, joined AND kept the DotF as well as got 24 favors for not doing anything in this war. Not that I complain.

Of course we need a regency, he's much too young!

 

[Jihem]

Seems that Timurids are in BIG trouble

 

[Sian]

seems fairly normal that they get in those problems ... although they usually get there before they grow that much larger than starting position

4th line of the peace deal you can see that ''France cedes Baye Blanche to France''.

I found that weird and check the province history. France colonised that province around 30 years prior to this war. You can see the line ''became civilised'' and ''became a legitime province of France''.

The last line of the history log, on the peace deal day, France lost legetimacy to said province.

Now they are coring it back... wtf

This shit happens when in a peace deal with natives you take their tribal territory that you have already colonized - you lose the core

I can't help but feel like the modifier UI is subtly commenting on my recent Cilli -> Croatia -> Bulgaria -> Austria -> England -> Prussia -> Scotland -> Ireland -> Greece -> Poland -> France -> Sardinia-Piedmont -> Two Sicilies -> Italy -> Roman Empire -> HRE playthrough.

It's almost as if the Don't be Cilli achievement wasn't supposed to be played exactly that way.

And somehow Mali, not France or Austria is an endgame tag

I've played as Mali. In the most recent patch, it does feel a bit like the end of the... world, really, not just the game.

Not the weirdest thing but that is quite the name.

Also how in the world did Portugal get this Casus Belli on a random tribe

The random tribe insulted Portugal, that generates the CB.

I know that but why would they do that.

This Ming... looks like a human player! Check out the snake in the north. Anybody seen Ming play like this?

 

[Chieron]

I know that but why would they do that.

That CB can also be granted from certain events, not just the diplomatic action of insulting.

 

[jonjowett]

That CB can also be granted from certain events, not just the diplomatic action of insulting.

Specifically, there is a fairly common random event which gives you a claim on a neighbouring province, but the province owner gets an insult CB on you.

 

[bokorthedust]

I know that but why would they do that.

Blabbing buffoon trait can also make the AI randomly insult.

Some Crusaders got really, really lost as they sailed across the Mediterranean towards the Holy Land... or perhaps they encountered a wormhole.

Some events give you insult cbs (huastec might have gotten a claim via event or maybe the harbor dissidents event).

If i remember how the code selects such things correctly it goes "French ... in Asia ... no french tags have a core ... must be Jerusalem"

Very much this...

My current game:

interesting developments outside Europe in it too:

Also my colonial nation got confused... :

Is it just me or is he looking at him like.. "I was here first dude"
