it's already "out" but it lacks pretty much any flavour, waiting to see what they do with the JE system

>>2341649
>That Aelnar
Kek what happened, how can they survive there

>>2341673
their floating city crashed
and they can't
the dalairey wastes are the only place on all of halann that has a mortality modifier that can't be nullified by tech
to own the chuds, of course
no way to make it a Star Elven homeland so they stop dying

>>2341676
>to own the chuds, of course
I don't understand how a mod/game/genre where 90% of the playerbase is "chuds" ends up with a dev team composed of people who are only in it to "own the chuds". Maybe that's why it's slowly dying.

>>2341713
Because transsexuals and other liberal or leftist NEETs are the only people who have the time to piss away making mods for map games.

>>2341721
>>2341713
Modders are like psykers, they're made of the sharpest but not the strongest things, sometimes they go AWOL

>>2341676
Vic3 Aelnar already has multiple flavor and path proposals and more interest in it than 90% of the tags outside of cannor/serpentspine combined. Goes for all evil tags really. Not even the devs themselves play the boring friendship is magic nations outside of a few fun ones like the jadd.

>>2341747
>Vic3 Aelnar already has multiple flavor and path proposals
do they? I thought the devs wanted them gone entirely

>>2341750
It's one of the few things I've seen discussed lately, besides the evil serpentspine kobolds, insyaa and generally escann

>>2341640

No.

No

Am I missing something with Chaingrasper? You're forced to go like 3000 ducats into debt and fall behind on tech in order to study necro and go lich, but you still have to keep up colonization you can barely afford the whole time

Why is Jaybeaner like this?

I formed Farranean as Sons of Dameria because I heard they got an extra flavor event for doing it, but I haven't gotten it yet and Rogier is like 75
Anyone know what the trigger conditions are?

>>2342063
Isn't he still writing his blackpowder book?

>>2342063
I don't think he plays EU anymore, and vic 3 is complete and total shit so I doubt he actually cares about the vic 3 mod.

>>2342069
The flavor event is Rogier the Owl (not Rogier the Gay, the starting ruler of the Sons) becoming the consort of the Half Elf princess, that's otherwise his wife if you form Rogieria

>>2341640
>>2341649
>What if the lore went gay and retarded: the mod, also it's a mod for the gayest and retardedest pdx game

>>2341676
You made me check and this is in fact true, in their trannycord you can trace the pipeline from "Yeah Aelnar should be an OPM by vicky 3 time because people love it and will want to revive it" at the start to "We should kill them offscreen before the start date actually" a couple years later to "Actually put them in vicky 3 but make them die as pathetically as possible without any chance of survival as a humiliation ritual" as of a couple years ago or so by jaybeaner, I think he is perma seething about the fact Aelnar is always a top 5 most popular nation in his gay polls and I think from reading the posts that both he and his homotranny cabal would want it deleted from the mod as a concept if they could without sounding butthurt.

>>2341673
Aelnar gets jumped by literally everyone during the Rianvisa and survived with only the bloodgroves, then they get invaded by Lorent again and after losing Elissa gets blackout drunk and takes the city for a ride

why do they even hate Aelnar so much?

>>2342082
I got it now, I ended up accidentally cucking them out of the throne. When Rogier was still in charge, I used Rite of Conception (I'm still pn old magic) to get a magic heir. When Rogier died, the heir had their own magic heir, and the event / mission doesn't clear your existing heir. So I still have a Silmuna Powerful Mage lined up to inherit
I like ideas behind this tree, the whole "Twin Empire" with Ibevar thing is cool, but my god is the writing bad. I'm skipping most of the flavor because it's just so painful to read.

>>2342217

The ones that go through kalsyto or either a successful raj or command are nightmare fuel depending on how lucky you get in the campaign.

Genuinely why

>>2343095
The opposite is also retarded though, where every irrelevant EoA 2pm has a CN and it’s what usually happens ingame
“Exwesser Dalaire” and “Neckcliffe Amadia” are not real countries, they are mental conditions

>>2343095
>Lore rent
I prefer calling it low rent

>>2343109
It's because the devs went the completely opposite direction of vanilla, where only a few nations are scripted to go colonial. It also doesn't help that 5 million adventurers spawning in the moment the clock strikes 1500 also means there's barely anywhere to even colonize
Speaking of Vic3, the collapse of the Command literally mirrors the IRL collapse of the Mughal empire which allowed Britain to snag up India in a few decades, yet in Vic3 Bhuvauri is the only valuable thing the colonizers have taken (and knowing how that game works, will end up taking)

Devs really do have an issue with letting people be angry at the monstrous races that have invaded and pillaged their lands. What do you mean the purifying faction in the old sun cult don't want to drive out Harpies and Gnolls after countless invasions and thousands of years of enslavement and is fine with Sun Elves given the current Dartax situation? These guys should be borderline SS levels of intolerant.

>>2343760
Dwarves obviously get a pass, since they have never really done anything overtly bad to humans in recent memory. Harpies I believe have some lore in the sun cult about being corrupted creations of surakel's sibling or something like that, but they are seen as related to humanity, so I could see even a hardline position that considers them saveable. Elves came out of nowhere, any lore about them is made up on the spot, nothing saving them from hardliners except their aesthetics. And obviously gnolls are monsters everyone has hated for millennia, why the fuck would that change

why are so many of the monstrous races longhoused?

>>2343874
the MT won't linger on Taychend for long, most of the focus is actually going to be on Insyaa and Haless.

Taychend is more or less going to end up a resource extraction colony like india despite all the talk of the blue man's burden

>>2343816
wyvernheart is always top tier when it comes to culture converting and genocide. Masked Butcher also comes to mind, literally converting them into unique estates. Rosande is interesting in that you can accept green orcs, then culture convert goblins and unaccepted cultures into green orc, then turn it into a slave plantation if youre into that sort of thing. In Rahen there's a tigerman formable that removes non-tigers. And of course the serpentspine is rife with blissful murder and the screams of grobulins.

Are escanni tags contractually obligated to have a "win the consolidation wars" mission? I thought this tag would be focused on Ibevar + westward expansion so I was a little late to get started on consolidation.
That said, half elf admin is insane. I'm up to -90% diplomatic annexation cost, and 120% improve relations. Add on top of that conquering Escann from west to east means less AE from distance, and I haven't had any coalitions of note the whole game.
The later missions require you to have a lot of provinces culture converted, and the special conversion parliament issue is kinda slow. I'll probably switch to human administration once my vassals are all annexed for the conversion cost reduction.

Myxk is pretty fun though having to manually raid the coasts gets annoying once you get big.

My first war iirc was vs Leslinpar, and I called in Estallen and Silverforge on promise land (I later released Leslinspar and just traded favors for the provinces I gave them). no need to wait for favors
Prioritize allying nations with mage rulers, it takes you a few years to get the new battlemage academy project up and running to get your own war wizard. Always double check if your war enemies have their own wizard, nearly threw an early war when the enemy instacapped Asheniande with a cheeky meteor
Oh and give the estate privilege Private Funded Artificers, it gives you 3-5 free artificer regiments every ten years, depending on force limit I think. Always click it every time its off cooldown, there's no penalty I'm aware of for going over your artificer limit

4th country I'm playing in this mod, Arakeprun.
The early gameplay is fun, going from probably the most disadvantaged religion to uniting whole region. When I formed the formable, I didn't really like the colour that much (too much like Piss Prussia from vicky 2), but it's grown on me. Likewise, the focus tree seemed too oriented at playing tall, but the more I played, the more that turned out to be false.
Recently defeated Wesdam and took all their colonies. However, I'm now lagging behind rather noticeably in diplo/mil tech and the colonisers aren't afraid to cease the opportunity, so... yeah, will have to see how this goes.

>>2347169
Is there another set of Pashaine missions after Unity, the one where you have to own all of Esmaria + East Dameshead? I got bored after dissolving the Empire
Also, from a lore perspective the bit where you suddenly decide to hate mages comes out of fucking nowhere. The ideas implied that mages were devastating the land or something, but the events make it out like Pashaine one day just goes bugnuts paranoid for no reason

>>2347523

>>2347746
yep this is the canon and mostly what Jay intended from the start before he made the prequel for EU4

I wish my boys the Spiderwretch got a rework.
Their story and missions are fun, but like so many other trees require you to know EXACTLY what your doing before hand and can be fucked up if an AI nation takes a single province you need.

>>2347756
Anon most the mission trees in this mod require specific playstyles.
And most are require some form of blobbing aside from a handful of 'taller' tags made to shut up people complaining about having to conquer everything.

only because nurcestir-anbennar collapsed due to the blackpowder rebellion
jay's special snowflake OC camir silmuna canonically beat everyone else and then invaded anbennar

Camir is literally the Gilderoy Lockhart of Anbennar who only got far because he was better at brainwashing and memory control than the rest of them

>>2347795
Did nurcestir canonically annex everyone else in the escannbowl or did they only achieve regional dominance? The in-game Consolidation event chain only requires you to have 100 provinces by the end date, which is barely even half.

>>2347756

Well, considering that Unguldavor and Jazhkredu were outright established as homelands for orcs and goblins by Camir, it's safe to assume he conquered all of Escann, with the possible exception of Marrhold.

A12 = { #Jazhkredu
color = { 43 60 0 }

country_type = recognized #Established by Nurcestir as homeland for goblins, ergo recognized
A31 = { #Unguldavor

>>2348510
your average war wizard has like 5 siege so yeah they are insanely good

>>2347756
>>2348017
there's a mod that lets you change province trade goods with commands for anbennar
spiderwretch mt really has the potential to be the best in the mod desu, especially since we finally have centaur events

>>2348622
my issue with it is that you have a time limit where you really need to go full invasion on the centaurs and take basically that entire south western region I believe. Mostly keep as trade companies and expel centaurs I think is the optimal way to due it.
That is likely going to lead to a debt crisis and one lost war would destroy your limited manpower.
I like the ideas of them allying the ogres and lake humans, but not much comes from it alot of the time. A formed lake fed will dwarf you in power even if you played your best and the ogres 9 / 10 times need you to just take one as a vassal and feed them the hill region.

Which nations has timurids vibe? Meaning invincible cavalry that melts enemies, potential to blob insanely with no consequences, possibly either razing or cultural assimilation gov mechanic....

>>2349240
Jaddari uses timurids cultural assimilation and has overpowered cavalry. No razing though

Get Nathalyene deity, her emulant thing and a Spymaster advisor

>>2349280
Emulant for her gives either AE reduction or artillery level vs fort. Something to grab anyway, but not helpful for that. Even with the spymaster and all, it's still just rng. There will always be a bit where your spy can get caught and you can't do shit about it. Which wouldn't be so bad if you had other stuff to do in the meantime, but some countries are completely bottlenecked by spy network at certain points

Cavalry and Razing and blobbing: Centaurs (a few of them have unique MTs on the gitlab now, Wild Hunt is probably one of the hardest starts in the game that has a MT)
OP Cavalry, blobbing, and culture shenanigans: The Jadd (Mughal mechanics) and Adenica into Castanor (accepts all human cultures and creates a new Castanorian culture that slowly spreads over time)
Being able to take both aristocratic and horde ideas, and having an entire gameplay UI mechanic for raising stronger cavalry: the Elephant Raj lords into Dhugajir
Being able to take both aristocratic and horde ideas, but you are also schizo: Spiderwretch, Goblins that decide to larp as Centaurs and ride spider cavalry

what the hell are those squiggles
are those provinces? are those blank spots uncolonized or dense forests of domandrod?

>>2349306
the gray bits are impassable, the red in the middle is ancient forest, yeah the squiggles are supposed to be the paths through the forests

>>2349247
>>2349291
Jadd it is then, can I take aristo and horde as them like the timurids?

>>2349453
no, and you aren't as focused on cavalry as the jadd empire (formable) compared to jaddari, which can have all cav armies, makes cav cost the same as inf, and has a gov interaction that gives free cav units. but your formable has the mughal diwan culture mechanic. one advice i will give is combine your starting infantry units as they take losses, until you have 1k left, then disband those guys. elven military is brutal on manpower recovery, with your cav buffs its a waste to keep infantry long term. admin focus on the entire game, admin ideas as your first idea. dont bother having a positive budget, make all of your money from peace deals
try them on the gitlab because the jadd have more content on there (stuff about building temples in the africa continent)

>>2344434
I hope this is Keladora's and not some other illegitimate upstart's empire

>>2349529
Implying Keladora would let her empire get that fucked up. She'd admin focus and burn illegitimate half brothers her way out of that situation before it got half that bad

Never had much issue with Adshaws spy missions. Now Feiten I've rage quit repeatedly.

Which MTs have you convert to Praxis? Which big trees don’t mind if you convert to Praxis?

>>2349486
So I loose my op cav once I form the jaddari empire? Sad that I can't keep both

>>2349856
You still have good cavalry bonuses but you can't have all cav armies, you do get a powerful bonus for the next 50 years or so that's cavalry focused. You are basically turning an army into an actual state when you form their empire to be fair

Decided to dick around in Aelantir in my Giberd game, hoping to boost my artificer capacity with the precursor relics
I've never bothered colonizing in Anbennar before, and I got into the colonial game late. Stole these colonies in the north off Reveria and Neckcliff, making my way to Eordand which seems to have a lot of relics
Besides Eordand, are there any colonies that are particularly valuable? I have no clue what's going on in the Ynn River area, does this ever form into a gigastate or will it stay splintered until it gets eaten?

>>2351370
Taychend has a lot of relics iirc

wished more mts were less specific in the requirements and allowed for more freedom.

>>2351729
which mts did you have in mind?
its a community project, write a rework

>>2352142
Not them but new Verne and Istralore ones specifically pissed me off because you have no option but to go all in on Corin when even base game lets you have more religious freedom in MTs than that

Does Pashaine always lose the mages estate? Finished the Giberd mission tree >>2351370 and I'm looking around for something else to form. I chose to keep the mages and would rather not lose my magic projects.
Can't form the Gnomish Hierarchy, it's already my vassal.

>>2352149
yeah pashaine is not a mage tag

>>2352154
Is it from a government reform or does the revolution mechanic disable mages? I've never played a game long enough to see the revolution
As a side question, any anons itt know how passive hold digging works? I finished the Silverforge hold and eventually an event popped up upgrading it to level two.

>>2352160
mages are all traitors that wish to see Pashaine enslaved to the will of the black demense
enslaving them all and forcing them to mass produce artificery is completely morally justified

>>2352160
You lose the mages but keep the magical projects they have finished. And they get the revolution much earlier, at the start of the age of absolutism
Digging is passive and happens if an underground race is there (dwarf, goblin, kobold) and the province has less dev than the capital

>>2352699
The last thing they need is to be forced into a fucking colonial tree like over half of the MTs in coastal Cannor

>>2352699
There's too many tags going colonial already
>Busilar
>Eborthil
>Verne
>Moonhaven
>Pearlsedge
>Venail
>Lorent
>Reveria/Nimscodd
and then there's more minor powers that may or may not colonize, like Wesdam, Exwes, Neckcliffe, Damescrown, Deranne, Portnamm and Sorncost, plus the twenty or so adventurer tags that spawn in Aelantir

I'm quite aware they are, my point is that Aelantir is extremely overcrowded as it is without trolls also coming to colonize

>>2353371
Bad performance. I conquered aelantir by 1599

>>2353375
I'm just conquering casually before I get all my Admin Efficiency and CCR, which is very soon
not to mention manpower with the Rianvisa debuff was non-existent, and it only faded around 1575

>>2353391

troll, this not make sense

Oh yeah but it's only for evil Lithiel and it's only for 5-10 years which is useful for going sicko mode in south aelantir but I prefer to just stay as Venail and beat lorent and form aelnar only after I conquered everything

>>2353371
did you conquer every single aelantir native before forming aelnar?

not even close, I pretty much formed Aelnar asap and somewhat passively in order to get to the Rianvisa quickly and painlessly
Staying Venáil longer and more aggressively expanding CNs is much more optimal like that other anon is saying, but I should have no issues conquering the rest of Aelantir well before time's up as well
>>2353544
I will have this trick up my sleeve at some point too, will be using it on Alecand, Eordand and Rezankand

if no submods then just disable a bunch of graphical shit
