But watch out, the enemy can do the same so you should always retake provinces with foreign cores. War dynamism is a thing, it means that a province you occupy that has your core will be given to you after one year of constant occupation. Local fortifications are built by your estates and don't have any zone of control themselves, so while they might stop an enemy from looting your province for a while they won't stop them from rushing your capital. These are slightly more narrative and are just about me having some fun.Hey, so far you're doing good! Seven medium-sized tips for you (sorry if you already know these or chat told you):įorts don't show zone of control in the main map, instead these blue fort markers show where you have local fortifications.

If you don't want to go through the hundreds of message settings and tweak them all to your own specifications, feel free to use my own message settings which I've filtered down to pause and display the things that I feel are important: Simply overwrite your own default messagetypes_custom file with this one. Customizing the message settings so that you only get popups for things that are important to you increases playability more than anything else you can do. If you start a game with the default message settings and let it run for a month, your screen will be full of hundreds and hundreds of messages and icons letting you know, for example, that Saxony tried to form a Royal Marriage with Lithuania, but Lithuania refused! That's pretty rude of them, but we really don't care. One thing you need to do before starting to play a real game is to get your message settings under control. Fight into the Holy Lands to reclaim some notable sites for Christendom such as Jerusalem and Alexandriaĭepending on how things play out, we may add to or detract things from that list.Finish the Reconquista and conquer Granada to our South.I think some good short-term and long-term goals for this Castille game might be: Since EU3 is essentially a sandbox game, you need to set your own goals.

If you'd like, you could try to play along, but due to random events, different missions, and how other foreign powers grow and fall, our games may diverge pretty quickly. I'd also welcome any other knowledgeable players to answer questions that they have answers to.

Since this thread is meant to be helpful, I'll also try to answer any questions that people may have about game mechanics or gameplay advice. I'm going to post updates with screenshots along with explanations of everything from options and game setup through strategic decisions with my reasoning behind those decisions. If you've ever gazed wistfully at other people playing EU3 and muttered to yourself "I wish I could do this.", then you might get something out of this thread. I guess Europa Universalis is pretty infamous for its steep learning curve. I have some friends who bought the game but are basically too scared to try it, so I'm going to try to help ease them in a bit by describing some basic gameplay and explaining game mechanics. This is an instructional LP of EU3: Divine Wind.
