Pro tip for Personal Unions: NEVER use the Integrate function. EVER. Depending on your prestige and relation to them and however low your infamy is, you get a certain % chance, every time their Leader dies, to inherit the country. If you inherit it like that, you get instant cores on ALL of their Provinces. If you use the "Integrate" function, yes, you can get it significantly faster -- but you get all their provinces without cores and nationalism revolt risk. Which is very bad. But good fucking job. Keep your relations up over 200 with them and you're solid batman. Good job. EDIT: SHIT SON GET THAT INFAMY DOWN LOL Get some paintings and get an infamy adviser. Oh shit LOL. By the way, since I'm already on a roll. Your speeds. x4 for when nothing is happening, x3 for action and pause liberally. The only time I condone x5'ing is if you're a New World / Isolated nation and you got lots of waiting to do. | ||

I have been working on the paintings and trying to get an adviser for like 40 years. I got all the infamy before you said it was bad. Hopefully I can take care of it soon enough. I am just addicted to Annexing places. | ||

 With a 6 star infamy adviser, you easily lose .1 infamy/month so you should be a-okay. With a large nation such as Castille, expand the bureaucracy as well to get +1 more Magistrate/yr On December 29 2011 14:24 Caller wrote: for pu's, you only get cores on their provinces if they are in the same culture group as you. since france and castille are in different culture groups you will get no cores in this scenario. Oh is that how it works? I never had PU's outside of my Culture Group (I rarely get them in the first place) so I didn't know! Speaking of such, other than cores (if they are in your culture group), what purpose is PU's over Vassalation? Vassals give you 50% of their income, whilst PU's do not, if I am not mistaken? Both fight for you no matter what in wars, are in your complete control, and you can eventually annex them. More importantly, Vassals aren't lost if your prestige drops and you don't have to deal with succession wars. | ||

For shits and giggles in my navarra game i tried integrating france and i got 55 infamy. considering my income was 80% in trade that was really fun. | ||

I had to spend 100 years from 1500-1600 before I saw my first European nation, and during that entire time I had the European Disease event that basically gave every province free revolts every other month. I was pretty fucking large. Then I had to deal with Westernization in addition to the fucking Diseases. | ||

Korea (South)2131 Posts
The biggest problem i face right now is Inflation and fucking rebels EVERYWHERE. I started off with korea, took ryuku early, then took some mayasian shit. I got some lands in pegu and vasalized brunei. I read some strategy on korea which is bare bones and it said to get unam sanctum first to kill the infedels, but fucking I should have just tried to race trade tech to get quest for the new world. It seems like thats the limiting factor for westernizing because I already have -2 centralism (over the limiter ... damn revolts lol) and -3 innovation. My innovation and confucian teachings gets me negative missionaries so i cant convert these infedels LOL. My stability keep taking hits because of fucking country events. Oh my war exaustion is probably really high right now because i was in war for like 5 years... Revolt % is like 15+ across the board on all my noncore. Even my cores have 4% right now lol.... fuck Im sitting at at like 8 inflation and its only 1450 or so. If i play it over, i would have a better idea on strategy but, it took me so long to even get here ~_~ | ||

Holy fuck. Like I said, start with a European nation like Castille or something to get the ropes of things. Korea is like starting Starcraft and your first game being in Masters League. | ||
