Unlawful Imperial Territory

[fanoI]

Become the Emperor yourself.

No the Emperor himself get the penalty, too!
As Austria I got the mission "Our claim on Northern Italy", conquered Brescia and... BAM "Unlawful Imperial Territory!"... really strange has I had a core (the mission give it to me, right?)... at least apparently...

I'm just ignoring the Emperor sometimes in the Demo. Sometimes I oblige. Grow slowly but that's fine. Since it's basically Iron man mode in the demo i've lost more territory to wars than to the emperor.

Claiming Thrones does give Aggressive Expansion Malus. I got a PU with Bavaria as Austria.(randomly/normal, no malus) MY Emperor died.......lost PU. Fought War to restore Union, won. Got Aggressive Expansion Malus.

It seems that Aggressive Expansion malus comes into play whenever you take territory......the more and richer the provinces the bigger the Malus especially if not your cores.

Overextension is applied to having too many Non-cored provinces.

I never saw the unlawful territory penalty. (I was Emperor and NEVER took non-core territory)

Yeah, that was the case in EU3 at least. My guess is the demo was to short for the guy never losing it. If you got the formal request rather late in EU3, the unlawfull territory malus still needed 50 years to go away, even if the province had cored.

I thought it said the effects last until 1821, which means its forever.
