Vassal annexation is just half the vanilla cost - it's unreasonably expensive considering you have to pay full core cost for something which will likely be just a territorial core. Vassal annexation minimum year increased to 20 years. Tweaked subject settings to match wider diplomacy It doesn't make a huge difference in terms of difficulty, it's just better if everyone plays fair.

Unfortunately there's no way to mod in more understandable zone of control system.Д¬all for Peace and naval attrition are removed, as they're mechanics which are exclusively applied against the player. Reducing upkeep to half of vanilla values makes keeping or even building forts more reasonable option for the player, and helps AI economies. Most good players just delete all or nearly all of their forts, and AIs tend to suffer from having far too many crappy forts in wrong places breaking their economy. Small AI countries are mostly unaffected as mercenary limit was already higher than their force limit, but for big ones like Ottomans or Ming you can now actually defeat their army and not have army just as big show up next day.ДЇorts are unreasonably expensive. You can even go vanilla style merc spam if you stack available mercenaries (administrative, quantity, aristocratic) and force limit (quantity, offensive) bonuses. This doesn't affect reasonable use mercs to supplement your manpower. With some testing I found out that the best balance can be achieved by halving merc limit (both base and increase from force limit), which is unreasonably high. Unfortunately it's a bad idea to do any drastic mercenary or loan nerfs, as AI often loses all its manpower to self-inflicted stupidity such as parking a doomstack in a low supply province during peace time. Attrition, manpower buildings, manpower bonuses, all of that matters a lot less when you can just loan and merc. It doesn't matter than you just killed every military age man in a country, they'll just spam loans and mercs next day. This means defeats have minor consequences. At least as long as you play with Cossacks DLC enabled.Д«oth players and AI have access to infinite manpower pool of mercenaries, and close to unlimited very cheap loans. It leads to much denser alliance networks, and it's much less likely to be able to get a free attack on unprotected minor. This bumps up difficulty, as allies are much more useful defensively than offensively. So the mod just doubles base limit, and this opens a new world of diplomacy. tend to get mostly unused as they take precious slots you don't have. All options such as royal marriages, guarantees, marches, local alliances, supporting independence of others etc. You absolutely need a few strong allies, a few vassals to expand, and that prevents you from having any diplomacy beyond that. In vanilla diplomatic slots are always exhausted by every nation. So here's the full list of changes, ordered roughly by impact, with reasoning behind them explained in detail.Д«ase diplomatic relations increased from 4 to 8 It doesn't try to significantly affect game difficulty - it might increase it slightly by reducing cheesy tactics, or maybe slightly reduce it if you're trying to play naturally. Playing with this mod shouldn't feel like you're playing a mod, it should feel like you're playing vanilla which finally patched silly things right. Many of previous changes I've made become obsolete because most problematic areas are likely to be addressed by future patches.

These goals mean that every patch the right thing to do changes, and I need to go through list of fixed I've made and decide if they're still applicable.

reduce forced historical railroading via events or restrictions on player actions.

reduce AI cheating, as game is more fun when everyone plays by the same rules.

let people have fun in any way they choose, removing arbitrary prohibitions penalties.

fix any issues where poor balancing makes gameplay worse - making more options viable, and occasionally toning down anything that's overpowered enough to make alternatives irrelevant.
