OH GOD I CAME SO HARD THAT f**kING MAP

Good. I do have to agree with the article that Paradoxes tutorials are quite rubbish to understnad the game and a lot of times for me at least it even creates more confusion. Most of these games I have always learned by studying one aspect at a time while playing Grand Campaign making it at least 5 games that doesn't go very far before I start a new one.

yeah i had to play several games of EU3 and victoria before i could understand them

even after managing to unite the HRE I still couldn't fully understand some things

I just realized the map is exactly the same as the Crusader King 2 map, maybe the world in that game is just a preview of the new Europa Universalis 4 map?

uh it obviously is a preview of EUIV's map

and it's also obviously using the same graphics as CK2

So, you're telling me, Crusader Kings 2 is just a complete waste of time for Paradox Interactive, and they only used it to show off a new map?

Don't say that it is "obviously" a preview when the trailer was just released, because that is one of the few pieces of information you are using to make it seem "obvious"

I really hope things such as North-eastern Portugal and North-western Russia (most specifically Komi not being a damn wasteland) get retouched. They make the map depressing - I even developed a personal mod to turn Komi into a regular province.

I meant the trailer was used as a preview of sorts, not CK2, god, the game is great and has way more things going than just the pretty map.

Than say the Trailer, to me you were implying Crusader Kings.

uh my bad i guess

also i tried forming russia as fast as possible, and i came down to the last mission needed, integrate Smolensk into our nation, by 1437. I'd get a core on their capital and I'd be able to form Russia. Except their capital wasn't Smolensk, it was Byransk, so i've to wait until 1487 now

Because of this I'll cry myself to sleep tonight.

You're really lucky to get a generic mission instead of a specific Russian Mission. The Russian ones have a chance factor of 500-1000 while the generic one has a factor of 1 with two 1.5 modifiers. Lol.

yeah maybe i was terribly lucky or i just ran out of russian missions - can you get missions against Horde when you're paying them tribute?
