Vassal feeding, every 100 dip points base tax are now 10 years of annexing time

Yeah, didn't remeber that – I don't have the DLC yet. However, a >60 BT vassal is militarily useful regardless, even in 1.7.

You, realistically, have to keep them at a far lower base tax, otherwise events will push them over 60, and you get a -200 for breaking the march status.

Yay.

If you play castille or poland, you can just give the occupation to aragon/lithuania and then the provinces themselves in the peace deal. Let them core everything and then once you are satisfied with the blob, enact the decision to form the joint nation. Voila.

Fix incoming
You should have kept this a secret

Hardly a valid argument, sorry.

This change still makes me think humanism+religious and flat out coring is better then feeding a big vassal or a greater power PU nation you can't possibly integrate unless you take the "needed" idea groups.

And I still wonder how one is supposed to play denmark now.

Can't say for certain how it works in EU4, but in EU3 you just did everything you could to keep the unions together, and then kept your fingers crossed.

Yay.

I mean that you don't have to make them into a march if you want to grow them large.

You could always core the land.

There is national focus to give more admin points.


You don't have to take diplomatic ideas. You can take Admin ideas for reduced coring cost.

Being the HRE Emperor also can replace one of the diplomatic idea groups because it grants you +1 diprep in the beginning and you can get another +1 diprep, +1 diplomat, and +1 deprel just by completing reforms.

To be fair is your the Emperor you probably want to stack as much Diplo Rep as you can as that helps you pass reforms more easily, so your gonna want both Diplo and Influence anyway although I haven't seen how the new religion rules and the 30 years war effect the empire, I think they said it was harder over all but if you can win for your religion it gets easier,
