Far too punishing for letting your king die on purpose? No, this is a very good balance change. I applaud it.
How is historical friendship defined in game terms? Is it states which were buddy-buddy in history like GB-Portugal, or is it say having 100+ opinion for 50 years or something similar?
I wonder if this has anything to do with Sweden usually getting inherited by Denmark?
It diminishes the fun of getting a new monarch and it's unnecessarily frustrating. What's the fun in getting a cool new 6-stat ADM monarch if you have to spend the first part of his reign repairing the damage caused by his accession?
Or, worse, you have to waste all the points your 6-ADM monarch saved up repairing the damage caused by his untimely death.
If it is anything like EU3, it's something defined in the country files, and so your first example.
In that case; Good riddence. I want to see the Great Northern Wars, not a unified Scandinavia, especially not the first 2-300 years.
BB! I'd like to see Denmark integrate Norway though, more often then not. If not playing Sweden becomes so easy (boring).

Well, I think over the course of severl demo playthroughs I had maybe 3 stab hits and one of those was a ruler death. That was a little too stable IMO so adding a stab hit is not a huge deal. It would be nice to see some more stuff to spend military points on though, I don't generally go through (or need) that many generals. I suppose harsh treatment and tech will be it for the most part...

Sometimes I think some of you guys don't like a challenge.
Also, the AI plays by the same rules. So you're not really losing compared to everyone else.
You only want positive stuff to happen and never be challenged?
Stability drops are rather few in EU4. This will be a kind of stability drop that is not completely random. It's a good idea.
And the doubble stability drop of a king dying in battle is an even better idea. They should also add -2 stability if the king drowns on his way to america in a cog without upkeep....

History can easily tell us that the development of a country depends more on the skills of the king than in the gold of the country.
Complete bullocks. The game as per demo is COMPLETELY stable. It's absolute ludicrous. It shouldn't be easy to run at maximum stability like it is currently, and I'm glad they're trying to fix that. Correct me if I'm wrong but this period of time was anything but stable.
Also, it's not "fun" getting a new ruler. Maybe the first time when you try to intentionally murder him or his heir, but beyond that it's complete powergaming. There's enough ways as is to game the system, I'm glad I won't hear people suggest this cheese tactic anymore.
Manpower is the sum of all the bonus and malus you have depending on tech, ideas and whatnot. I'm guessing it gives a -100% modifier, so it could still be positive if you have say, an over +115% bonus and various other buildings, bringing it down to +15%. Not sure though, but seems on par with how modifiers work in EU4.
Even if I can't convert the Balkans in 5 years, the kebab will never be removed....
Please make a new achievement "Bad Luck Ua Briain" for when you get one of the powerless Irish countries through this method.
Great changes!
But... nothing about the broken notifications? Notably
1) No notification of peace deals when allied in a war;
2) No notification of cardinal death for "others";
3) No pause on events.
That doesn't seem very important but that can be very annoying! Actually the lack of notification for any move in the Curia makes the papal influence system utterly broken.
