Protestant/Reformed spreading via Centers of Reformation is way more interesting and intuitive than the old random province events, and the massive Protestant League wars make the mid game very exciting!

I hope we get more stuff like this in the future, having everything handled by events alone is boring, these changes make the Reformation an enjoyable experience.

I agree... so many new cool stuff in the expansion. I just hope the performance will be better and more optimized. It lags quite a lot now.

I agree. In my game as Japan I took a look at the religious map of Europe and was really happy to see Bohemia was the Emperor and the HRE was Protestant :D

So far the reformation seems extremely weak, in all my games so far only Sweden and a couple of HRE OPMs have flipped from Catholic, leaving them alone against a 95% Catholic Europe. Maybe I'm just unlucky.

increase the number of centers of reformation from 3 to 4 in defines, it's way better.

As for the OP, I agree, we need way more of these unique mechanics
