Did you hit the tutorial on the demo? It'd be a fun project to take on, but for all the other things on my plate. :P
You mean Paradox have made a game where the Tutorial aren't a pile of steaming dung? ... aren't that against internal company by-laws?
It's miles ahead of what it was beforehand (I know, I know, baseline zero and all that jazz). I'd give it a shot.

I found the tutorial in EU IV pretty worthless, actually. If this is better than what it was in the past....
You get an introduction to the screens and controls, and walk through a couple very (very) simple tasks without any explanation of what is really happening in those tasks. The tutorial is all about how, with nothing about why.

Upgrading from trash 2.0 to trash 3.0 isn't really useful at all.

My autism compelled me to roll somewhere around 50 Albania starts to see if perfect rolls allow you to beat the starting Ottoman stack.
If they only send half as they often do, it does. And if your King-General rolls very high shock as a value. 6/5/6 rulers ain't nothin to fuck with.

That...that is a better way of doing it. Well, aside from the getting annexed by Serbia.

I think I'm starting to get the hang of things. Started a game as Muscovy and took Quantity as my first National Idea. After completing the entire Idea and a bit of expansion I now have over 60k manpower and infantry costs 3.5g to recruit. Hopefully it's enough to take on Denmark, because they're a-comin'

Do they have sweden in tow though? B/c Swedish steel (+Discipline) idea feels unfair :P
