    frontage i think is more similar to naval combat width in EU4 than land combat width, with units having variable widths

    I would love to get an objective to raid / pillage, reducing the supply limit of provinces, in order to halt the advancement of enemy armies. Or to harass / skirmish so smaller stacks of enemy troops.

    SulphurAeron said: On the failure of the expedition, how will the results of the exploration look like? 1. Is it an all-or-nothing approach, where the entire area is 'discovered' at once at the end of the project (i.e. the explorer returns home after doing the entire area and shares his maps 2. or will we have intermediary results (like once an entire province is finished within an area), sort of like EU4 currently? I can see both approaches work, and since explorers 'often' went back to resupply and get more men/provisions, an 'update' of the progess every while would feel more fun imo.

    Tried it because it was on the extra store. Seems like a fun game but mannnnnnn was it daunting getting thru all the windows and looking at tooltips. I think I took as many hours total to clear Annos campaign on console so it wasnt that bad but man six times pressing the o button to close a window only to go back into that window sure does suck alot of fun and make it a pain to play. Would be 500000 times more enjoyable to click create a title than scrolling all around with the dpad.

    The only things I'm worried about is some of the focus tech feel a bit essential so like if you dont pick admin tech for your first focus, does that mean you can't hire mercenaries and or take out loans for the rest of the game? Or like claim fabrication is in diplo focus, can you just not fabricate claims for the rest of the game?

  • @Leivve
    @Leivve11 күн бұрын

    I would eat my shoes if fundamental basics of the game were locked out to you in that way. That would defeat the whole point of the system. It's likely connected to you giving loans not taking them, and likely just you being able to do it earlier, or more efficiently. Same with mercenaries, likely connected to improved cost/access/power, not the ability to hire mercs.

    @@smirkyshadow4152 I highly doubt mercenaries, loans, and other basic mechanics that are core to the game are going to be locked behind ideas. You are picking between stuff like Deus Vult CB and anti piracy CB. Remember that the super majority of techs are generic, these are just the replacement for ideas groups. They are buffs to a specific dominion of play, not something they'd lick core features behind.

  • @Leivve
    @Leivve12 күн бұрын

    Honestly locking you out of techs is very good, from both a balance standpoint, and making the choice matter. If there was a way to just go back and get all the "best of" highlight techs, then it just becomes homogenous. It's also just a good way for nations to feel different. One campaign you are investing in early economy and colonization England, and a different playthrough you can focus on diplomacy and warfare to win the 100 years war, and try to dominate Europe.

    Ngl, I’d like if you had to send explorers and you won’t get an update until they come back (there’s a chance they won’t.) You’d have to give them ships, supplies and money. Maybe on historical mode the AI is more likely to discover Africa and Brazil.

    I like this system. Research systems are critical to the design of any GSG/4x. I think this one really fits the theming of the game, and will encourage players to interact with other game systems in a more engaging way than EU4’s “pay advisor, get points, hit button” system. Hahaha I like that there are tradeoffs to maximizing research gain by way of literacy’s side effects. Reforming a nation further behind on tech will likely mean having to hold of on blobbing, and vice versa. I wonder if this will tend to make it so the world outside of Europe is at a technological and/or resource disadvantage in a way that doesn’t rely on just putting a flat cost penalty to research on other tech groups, like EU4 at launch.

    I would like see that the expeditions would have a limited supplies and they would randomly explore part of unknown world. The difference would be that in EU4 expedition can explore everything in its range at one run. With the limited supplies there may be needed to send multiple expeditions even to explore everything in the range.

    Used to be the case in EU4. It honestly becomes tedious pretty quickly as you can't even queue exploring seas not next to already explored seas so there's a lot of micro. You can already experience this in some way by exploring on land without using the "Hunt for the Seven Cities of Gold" mission.
