Playing as anything from the Roman Empire to ISIS is amazing, and the post-Napoleonic stuff gets really interesting without that 1821 cap. Edit: Even during the 1444-1821 period, you still get to colonize all of the wasteland areas. The only downside is no ironman. | ||

If there's a music folder, can I just put some files in there for the game to cycle through? | ||

At least with SC/SC2 there's breaks between games where you can chill with your headphones off. If there's a music folder, can I just put some files in there for the game to cycle through? http://steamcommunity.com/workshop/browse/?appid=236850&searchtext=music&childpublishedfileid=0&browsesort=trend§ion=readytouseitems There are a lot of mods to add music that keeps ironman working. You might check how they work and just do the same. Or turn off volume on in game music and listen to whatever you want in a third program. | ||

How is this even possible when I'm an Absolute Monarchy and my heir gets the throne anyway... is this some known bug? Edit: Looks like my observation wasn't completely correct. I still have the negative relation penalty but it doesn't seem to change at all, it doesn't stack but it also doesn't decrease, it seems to be stuck at -20. hello anyone? | ||

0% attrition doomstacks are the best | ||

But how does that even work? I mean you should take no attrition damage, but it's not like all million muskets can fire at once. So DPS should be even, or worse since you don't have artillery. | ||

No matter how much I read about it on the wiki I can't seem to understand it. http://www.reddit.com/r/eu4/comments/29hmwi/eu4_military_details/ This guide is from a few patches ago but I learned a lot more from it than I did from the wiki. I'm sure it includes errors, but the wiki probably has a couple too. Combat happens in rounds but the rounds alternate between fire and shock. Units and generals use only their fire stats in the fire phase, similarly shock. Generally speaking, the fire phase favors cannons and late game technology while the shock phase favors cavalry and early game technology. Infantry gradually shift from shock units into fire units as the game progresses from the Hundred Years' War to the Napoleonic era. This means that at the start of the game, very little happens during the fire phase and therefore your generals' fire score is almost irrelevant. Meanwhile most of the dying is happening in the shock phase, so a 5-6 shock general is devastating. As the game progresses, a general's fire score is about as good as the size of your artillery line (since that tends to grow as you get richer and more advanced). Each individual combat modifier should be pretty simple when you study it. It's only complex when you try to add them all up at once, in order for the AI to be better at estimating combat odds than the player. | ||
