I want to sell my boats!!!!
Meh, that's a minor thing, first and foremost a game set in the 19th century needs to be able to simulate things like the Concert of Europe, the Great Game and Crimea War. After that, we can bother with details as selling boats.

Will slavery actually expand/will new POPs be enslaved? Without that, conquering regions and making them slave states is rather useless, since it just spreads out slaves more thinly rather than creating new ones...

This is great...BUT...pleas overhaul the diplomacy system. It's really annoing that the half of Europe is allied against you, so that you're encircled. E.g. playing as Prussia you're confronted with a french-russian-austrian-swedish Alliance. That's one of the biggest reasons why I don't play the game anymore.

is this vanilla? the AI is very hesitant to ally with more than one great power as it is, you should probably make sure you have some supporters of your own early. *hint hint* Also crises will have the ability to break alliances when it comes to conflicts of interest so that is one way to break a stalemate like this *hint hint*

Well being surrounded like that sounds like your diplomacy failed horribly...

One more suggestion/request.

Please add some way to simulate many great powers meeting and coming up with a solution. Not just 1v1 or 2v2 crises, but something like the Berlin Conference, or Congress of Berlin. All the Great Powers met to settle a bunch of claims and redraw boundaries. I would love it if this feature included maps, being able to click on provinces and select their desired owner. That isn't necessary though, it could all be done with 2 or 3 options to choose from overall, or by region.

To be fair selling boats wasn't exactly a minor detail. It allowed navies to field vessels vastly more superior than their country was able to produce. For example the entire South American dreadnaught race couldn't have happened without it.

Compared to what the Big Boys were doing, the South American dreadnought race WAS a minor detail. An interesting one...yes, especially when WWI kept some deliveries from being made, but a minor one, nonetheless.

A peace conference mini game/mechanic for great wars would be kind of awesome but obviously won't make it into this.. has paradox ever had such a thing in any of its games? like congress of vienna/treaty of versailles type scenarios..

An expansion to one of the smaller titles would be the place to try it out, though.

"yes" ;P details in coming diary



Not decided yet. there wont be 15 though. I am trying something a little different this time with HoD so it will have fewer total features we considered "large" before but each of them will be bigger and tie in more with the rest of the game. I will update you guys once we decide when to start the diaries.

Any chance for fixing the Jingoism points / diplo actions bottleneck, which is currently preventing WCs?

Or otherwise, if you want to avoid any thoughts of WCs - maybe block the possibility of Fast growing by eating up China - eg. By some max non accepted cultures factor, combining infamy with population or further strengthening Chinese Empire.
