Annunciato il nuovo DLC: Dharma

Non è ancora stato annunciato. Considerando che a Luglio vanno tutti in vacanza in Svezia, direi non prima di fine Agosto, ma secondo me più probabilmente a Settembre. Ovviamente si tratta di mie congetture personali.

 

EU4 - Development Diary - 3rd of July 2018
In precedenza la gestione degli inverni era limitata all'emisfero nord, ma ora anche Sud Africa, Sud America, Australia e Nuova Zelanda potranno avere l'inverno. Si può osservare nella mappa rifatta per il tempo atmosferico (in precedenza era chiamata "inverno"):
Inoltre non c'è solo l'inverno in questa mappa. Per arricchire il subcontinente Indiano, sono stati aggiunti Monsoni. Nella stagione dei Monsoni (dipende dalla posizione geografica) il terreno diventa fangoso, la velocità di spostamento diminuisce e l'attrito aumento. I Monsoni non sono però limitati all'India, ma sono presenti anche in Asia Orientale, Africa e Sud America.

Ci saranno anche nuovi eventi in caso di Monsoni particolarmente distruttivi o portatori di qualche bonus.

É giunto il momento di parlare dell'elefante nella stanza, come dicono gli inglesi. Infatti nel DLC Dharma sono stati aggiunti gli Elefanti.

Questa è un'aggiunta puramente di immersione nel subcontinente Indiano e il Sud Est Asiatico. Si tratta infatti solo di modelli 3D per la cavalleria senza alcun impatto sul gameplay. Chi ha il DLC Dharma vedrà gli elefanti nelle nazioni Indiane e del Sud Est Asiatico.

Per riassumere, la patch 1.26 aggiungerà l'Inverno in tutto il mondo, mentre il DLC Dharma offrirà i Monsoni e gli Elefanti.

Nel prossimo DD si parlerà di nuove Idee Nazionali e Nazioni Formabili.

Edit: inverno in Nuova Zelanda e Monsoni con il Nuovo Mondo Casuale:

 

EU4 - Development Diary - 10th of July 2018
Oggi neondt, che ha sostituito Trin Tragula come Content Designer di EU4 (quest'ultimo è andato a lavorare su Imperator:Rome), ci parla delle nuove navi formabili nella patch 1.26 Mughals e delle loro idee nazionali.

Prima di tutto, Delhi è ora una nuova nazione formabile. Con la patch 1.26 formare Delhi darà accesso al loro unico Albero delle Missioni oltre che alle loro Idee Nazionali.

dlh_suppress_rebellion:0 "Suppress Rebellion"

dlh_throne_of_india_desc:0 "For centuries every great Indian empire has been ruled from Delhi. It is the seat of conquerors, and our birthright. All must know that Delhi is once again home to the rightful ruler of all India!"

Chi non vuole ricreare Delhi potrebbe invece provare a formare il Punjab dopo essersi convertiti al Sikhismo. Questo permette di avere accesso al ramo Sikh del nuovo Albero delle Missioni Indiani, con focus sulla creazione di un Impero Sikh.

Il Nepal è stato diviso in varie nazioni minori, con il Nepal stesso che ora è una nazione formabili con un bellissimo nuovo colore. Anche se il Nepal mantiene le sue idee, le nuove nazioni minori hanno tutte un nuovo set di idee nazionali.

hin_sufism_desc:0 "Muslim princes across the world compete to attract the wisest Sufi teachers. As our renown has grown, more of these Sufis have joined us. Towns are founded where they settle, often in previously inhospitable regions, and the local people are inspired to convert to Islam by the wisdom of the Sufis."

La prossima settimana Groogy parlerà di team nel Multiplayer e della nuova visuale dell'assedio per gli indiani.

 

EU4 - Development Diary - 17th of July 2018
Questo DD parla di due piccole feature che saranno parte della patch 1.26.

La prima è la possibilità, per il multiplayer, di creare dei Team in cui tutti i membri contribuiscono al punteggio.

C'è un opzione per lasciare creare i team solo all'host oppure anche a tutti i giocatori. Questa scelta (e la possibilità di rimuovere team) è però solamente nelle mani dell'host.

Tutti i giocatori di una squadra sono obbligati a essere alleati e non hanno la possibilità di uscire dall'allenza (ok, qualcuno troverà un modo tramite qualche strano evento, ma nel caso verrà corretto). Questa alleanza non conta come slot diplomatico e non si otterrano victory cards contro i propri alleati.
Se un giocatore smette di giocare, il suo paese rimane nel team anche se governato dall'AI.

La seconda feature è la nuova grafica degli assedi per il subcontinente indiano. Una piccola aggiunta, per dare un po' più di immersione.

EDIT nel caso di assedio a una provincia senza forte, la grafica invece è questa:

La prossima settimana si parlerà di bilanciamento del gioco.

 

L'alleanza perpetua tra i membri è una conseguenza del giocare insieme.
Da quel che ho capito, in questo modo è possibile oltre che avere giocatori separati, avere team di giocatori che sono sempre insieme e il cui punteggio è dato dalla somma dei punti dei giocatori. In alcune partire può essere carino ad esempio invece che essere 4 giocatori separati fare due team di due giocatori ciascuno.

 

EU4 - Development Diary - 24th of July 2018
Oggi si fa un riepilogo dei cambiamenti relativi alle meccaniche già esistenti nella patch 1.26 Mughal.

Estates:
Ora causano disastri quando al 100% di influenza invece che all'80% e non hanno più un requisito minimo di province. Inoltre:

• confiscare province a un'estate fornisce +5 unrest alla provincia per 15 anni, a meno che nel frattempo la provincia non venga assegnata a un'altro estate (nel qual caso il modificatore sparisce);
• confiscare province a un'estate aggiunge +25 autonomia locale
  
• consiglieri generati da interazioni con estate ora hanno un costo che scala con l'influenza dell'estate
• l'influenza fornita da eventi ora in generale è più elevata
• estate cossack ora ottiene il doppio dell'influenza per il development nelle sue province
• il livello massimo di development che fornisce influenza è ora 50% invece di 40%

Trade Nodes:

• il nodo di Bengal ora fluisce in Doab, che a sua volta fluisce in Lahore (rinominato, in precedenza era Kashmir) rimediando a un'ingiustizia
• in generale rinomina e rimodellazione dei nodi commerciali Indiani (vedi screenshot)
• il nodo Katsina ora è collegato a Etiopia invece di Alessandria
• il nodo Etiopia è ora collegato anche ad Aden
• Coromandel fluisce direttamente verso il Capo (di Buona Speranza)

In generale questo vuol dire che molti nodi Indiano sono ora in grado di raggiungere l'Europa senza passare per Aden. Zanzibar non è più importante come prima, anche se rimane remunerativo.

Tributari:
L'IA non è più interessata a creare nuovi tributari con nazioni con cui non ha un confine. Questa vale sia per inviare che per ricevere richieste. Tributari esistenti non sono soggetti a questa restrizione, quindi Ayutthaya & Khmer non abbandoneranno improvvisamente Ming nel 1444.

A proposito di Ming, la patch 1.26 potrebbe quasi essere rinominata la patch Sukhothai, dato che dichiarare una guerra di indipendenza non chiama più in guerra i padroni dei tributari coinvolti. Quindi Sukhothai può dichiarare l'indipendenza da Ayutthaya senza subire l'intervento cinese.

Espansioni:
Un vecchio problema di EU4 è che la conquista è quasi sembra un'ottima idea: si ottiene un beneficio economico immediato, si aumenta il forcelimit delle proprie truppe, si aumenta il potenziale commerciale e contemporaneamente si priva il nemico di quelle terre.

Ora il numero massimo di Stati è più importante. Se si occupano più territori del proprio limite di stati, si avrà una penalità annuale alla corruzione (+0,02 per territorio). Quindi se si ha un limite di Stati di 15 si possono occupare 15 Stati E 15 Territori senza problemi. Regioni Coloniali oltremare e Compagnie commerciali non contano ai fini di questo calcolo. Questa penalità alla corruzione è dimezzata in modalità Facile e assente nella modalità Molto Facile.

In concomitanza con questo, il limite base di Stati di tutte le nazioni è stato raddoppiato.

C'è una costante ALLOWED_TERRITORY_VS_MAX_STATES che permette di modificare questo valore in defines.lua

Soggetti:
Per incoraggiare il dominio indiretto, mantenere un soggetto per un lungo periodo riduce gradualmente il suo desiderio di libertà. I soggetti inoltre possono ora guadagnare fiducia nei confronti del proprio padrone, invece di avere il valore fisso di 50.
Il contributo al force limit dei soggetti ora scala con il force limit dei soggetti stessi, con un minimo di +1 +10% dai vassalli e +20 dalle marche.

Tag di fine partita:
Per impedire la continua formazione di nuovi nazioni, come da Ottomani a Bisanzio o Minghals o da Inghilterra a Mughals a Shan a Mughals a Giappone non è mai stato facile.
Per risolverlo nella 1.26 sono state aggiunte le "TAG di fine partita" che impedisce a queste nazioni di creare altre nazioni (HRE, Roma e Stati Papali sono eccezioni, quindi Bisanzio può diventare Roma, l'Italia può diventare HRE, etc.).

L'attuale lista è:

• Mughals
• Ottomans
• Byzantium
• Rome
• Holy Roman Empire
• Rum
• Qing
• Russia
• Commonwealth
• Japan
• Yuan
• Hindustan
• Bharat
• Arabia
• Papal States
• Spain
• Great Britain
• Italy
• Germany
• Ming

Questi sono i cambiamenti principali relativi al bilanciamento. Ovviamente ci saranno molti altri dettagli minori che saranno presenti nel Changelog completo, che verrà fornito più avanti.

Spesso questi cambiamenti non sono ben accolti (vedi il rilascio della 1.12). Per favore mantenete un tono civile nella discussione. Cercheremo di spiegare i motivi dietro ad alcune scelte.

Per non parlare solo di bilanciamento, ecco alcune Idee Nazionali introdotte nella 1.26, in particolare nella regione bengalese dove c'è ora una differenza tra il Sultanato Bengal e altri stati minori intorno.


Bengal Sultanate ideas

bng_combat_piracy =

bng_habshi_generals =
army_tradition = 0.5

"Abyssinian slave-soldiers purchased in Arab markets play a significant role as elite infantry soldiers. Those that excel as leaders shall be given greater levels of command, while those who demonstrate exceptional loyalty shall make up the palace guard."

bng_clearing_the_delta =
development_cost = -0.1

"The Bengal Delta contains an immense expanse of potentially very profitable land that goes unexploited due to thick forestation. We must subsidize efforts to clear the forests to make way for new farmlands, cities, and trading posts."


bng_attract_sufis =
idea_cost = -0.1

"Sufis have long been innovators of Islamic thought as well as wise councilors. If we wish to be a leading voice in the future of the Islamic world, we must patronize Sufi lodges and convince the wisest among their order to settle in our domain."

bng_conquest_of_the_gangetic_plain =
leader_land_shock = 1

"To our west are the fertile and populated lands of the Indo-Gangetic Plain. The Sultans of Bengal have long coveted its great cities and vast wealth, but only now as a new and ambitious crop of generals rise to power is our ambition likely to become a reality. We must do all we can to ready our forces for the coming conquest."

bng_rupees =
global_tax_modifier = 0.1

"The lack of a widely adopted standardized currency is stunting the development of Indian commerce. As one of the foremost economic powers in the subcontinent, we are well placed to begin the minting of a new silver coinage with standard weights, which we shall call the rupee."

bng_bengali_industrialization =
global_trade_goods_size_modifier = 0.1

"Bengal is uniquely situated in India to begin a revolution unlike any seen before. We stand poised to exploit new developments in our already world-class textile and shipbuilding industries. Let us begin an industrial revolution!"

Bengali Minors ideas

prestige = 1

hindu_sufi_syncretism =
religious_unity = 0.5

"Beyond the eastern frontiers of the Islamic world, came Sufi mystics to settle land grants or to commune with nature in Bengal, intermingling with the Hindu population. Cooperation led to extensive land reclamations in forested and marshy areas and helped to introduce new syncretic forms of music, painting, dancing and sculpture reflected in the temples and shrines constructed during this period."

ganges_brahmaputra_confluence =
trade_efficiency = 0.1

"The mighty Ganges and Brahmaputra have traveled far to intermingle and spread out into the Bengal Delta, funneling trade and commerce in its wake. For thousands of years the area around the delta has been a natural place for the easy exchange of goods and ideas."

rice_fields =
global_manpower_modifier = 0.2

"We Bengalis are primarily rice eaters, and the rainfall and soil in the area lends itself to massive surplus rice production, with the mighty silt laden rivers and monsoon allowing for three separate growing and harvest seasons a year."

mustard_oil_ilish_mach =
war_exhaustion_cost = -0.10

"Wars may torch the granaries and markets. The weather may wither or crush the crops in the fields. Elephants and ants may try to eat what we have planted. Give us a little oil, however, and our fish-laden rivers will give us the food we Bengalis desire most!"

jute_production =
#production_efficiency = 0.1

"Native to our region, Jute is a long, soft, shiny vegetable fiber that can be spun into coarse, strong rope, matting or thread. In high demand for its resilience and relatively light weight, we can benefit from its cultivation and production."

opium_fields =
global_tax_modifier = 0.1

"What's that? People will give us gold and silver for our flowers!? The opium of our region is highly prized and easily grown, commanding twice the price of any other opium in the world. Let the trade begin!"

bengali_renaissance =
global_institution_spread = 0.1

"The Bengal Renaissance that took place in this region was a reaction to the encounter and impact of Europeans arriving for not only commerce, but for study, art and scholarship. The Bengal Renaissance blended together Hindu teachings from the past with Western education, politics and law, as well as a re-casting of Bengali culture. This led to a flourishing of the arts and sciences."

E se non vi interessano né il bilanciamento né le idee nazionali, tornate la prossima settimana dove si parlerà dell'interfaccia degli edifici. Ci sono ancora un po' di DD prima del rilascio di Dharma e della 1.26.

 

EU4 - Development Diary - 31st of July 2018
Oggi si parla di come i Centri del Commercio siano stati resi più interessanti.
Sin dal rilascio di EU4, i Centri del Commercio sono stati semplicemente un bonus secco alle province, che rende appetibile la conquista di certe province per migliore il proprio potere commerciale in un nodo. Semplice, chiaro, ma poco profondo.


Prima di tutto nella patch 1.26 Mughals i Centri del Commercio, sia costieri che interni, hanno effetti sulla provincia, su chi la possiede e sulle province intorno. Vediamo questi effetti:

(costieri)

• Staple Port:
  • + 5 trade power,
• Entrepot:
  • +10 trade power, -5% dev cost, +10% institution spread
• World Port:
  • +25 trade power, +0.25 Naval Tradition, +30% institution spread
  • For whole Area: -10% dev cost, +100% Sailors, +1 Building Slot

(interni)

• Emporium:
  • +5 Trade Power
• Market Town:
  • +10 Trade Power, -5% dev cost
• World Trade Center:
  • +25 trade power, +30% institution spread
  • For Whole Area: -10% Dev Cost, +33% Manpower, +1 Building Slot

L'obiettivo è variare i vari Centri del Commercio, in modo che Genova sia più importane di Barcellona ad esempio. Staple ports ed Emporiums portano bonus piccoli. Entrepots e Market Towns sono simili ai vecchi Centri del Commercio mentre World Ports e World Trade Centers portano benefici non solo alla provincia ma anche al possessore e all'area a cui appartengono. Da notare che i Centri del Commercio non occupano gli slot degli edifici.

Quindi tutti i Centri del Commercio sono stati rivisti e molti centri minori sono stati aggiunti.
Europa:


India:

Inoltre chi possiede il DLC Dharma potrà migliorare il livello dei propri Centri del Commercio. Questi devo trovarsi in stati o compagnie commerciali e il costo per passare al livello 2 sarà di 200 ducati e al livello 3 sarà di 1000 ducati.
Il numero di Centri del Commercio di livello 3 di una nazione non può però essere superiore al numero di mercanti a disposizione (quindi nazioni focalizzate sul commercio potranno averne di più).
Attenzione però che un Centro di Commercio perde un livello (da 3 a 2 o da 2 a 1) quando cambia il proprietario, anche in caso di cambiamento pacifico. Si potrà anche declassare un proprio Centro di Commercio in tempo di pace al costo di 10 prestigio.

Per chi non avrà Dharma i Centri del Commercio non cambieranno mai di livello, né aumentando né diminuendo.

La prossima settimana si parlerà delle nuove Idee Nazionali di cui non si è ancora parlato finora.

 

EU4 - Development Diary - 7th of August 2018
Nazioni importanti in India ora hanno ciascuna uno specifico Albero delle Missioni, mentre nazioni minori usano due generici alberi Nord/Sud.
Ad esempio con la patch 1.26 Mughals tutti potranno usare il nuovo Albero delle Missioni del Tibet:

Queste missioni sono orientate a unire il Tibet e riportare alla sua più grande estensione, ai danni di Cina, India e genti delle Steppe.

In totale quindi le nazioni con nuovo albero delle Missioni con il rilascio della patch 1.26/DLC Dharma saranno:

• Vijayanagar (DLC Dharma)
• Bahmanis (DLC Dharma)
• Delhi (DLC Dharma)
• Orissa (DLC Dharma)
• Bengal (DLC Dharma)
• Mughals (DLC Dharma)
• Mewar (DLC Dharma)
• Hindustan (DLC Dharma)
• Gujarat (DLC Dharma)
• Malwa (DLC Dharma)
• Taungu (DLC Dharma)
• Bharat (DLC Dharma)
• Tibet (free 1.26)
• North Indians (free 1.26)
• South Indians (free 1.26)
• Muscovy (per chi ha DLC Third Rome)
• Novgorod (per chi ha DLC Third Rome)
• Russia (per chi ha DLC Third Rome)
• Russian Minors (per chi ha DLC Third Rome)

In un precedente DD è stato mostrato l'Albero delle Missioni della Moscovia che diventa Russia, ora vediamo la stessa cosa per Novgorod:

Le missioni di Novgorod sono orientate al dominio del Baltico e allo sviluppo del commercio nella regione.

Ora parliamo di Idee Nazionali, che sono aggiunte dalla patch 1.26 e in particolare per alcune nazioni minori:

Vediamo le nuove idee di Sindh, Junagarh (gruppo Gujarati) Mysore e Patna (gruppo Garjati), che sono nazioni utili per sbloccare nuovi achievements nella 1.26, di cui si parlerà in un futuro DD.

Anticipazione (Spoiler): Sindh

Sindh_ideas =
start =
land_forcelimit_modifier = 0.25
missionaries = 1


bonus =
global_manpower_modifier = 0.15

snd_enduring_dynasty =
legitimacy = 1
"Sindh's Samma dynasty has endured through the centuries. Tracing their descent to legendary Rajput warriors, they have endured the rule of the Delhi Sultans for over a century. Now that Delhi has collapsed, the ambitions of the Samma dynasty can finally be realized."


snd_bab_ul_islam =
global_missionary_strength = 0.02
"As one of the first in India to accept the word of the Prophet, the rulers of Sindh carry the duty of spreading the wisdomm of the Quran to the people. Along the Indus river we have already been successful in this task, but now we must look beyond our borders for new khafirs to convet."


snd_gujarati_connections =
placed_merchant_power = 5
"Our nations fortunes are tied both politically and economically to those of Gujart. We must develop strong ties with Gujarat's most influential merchants to ensure that we are extracting maximum profit from trade in both the Arabian sea and along the Indus river."


snd_makli_necropolis =
tolerance_own = 1
"The Makli Necropolis is the site of the Tomb of Shaikh Jamali, a renowned Sufi saint. Since his death, the rulers of Thatta have begun a tradition of constructing new tombs for themselves on the Makli Hill in the hope that proxiimity to the venerated saint will improve their standing with Allah. We must continue to add new monuments to the Necropolis."


snd_end_judicial_corruption =
yearly_corruption = -0.1
"It has come to our attention that jjudicial authorities are taking payments from plaintiffs and defendants alike to secure favorable verdicts. They claim that they are forced to do this to augment their meager incomes. Upon review, it seems that we are indeed underpaying these authorities. A general rise in pay for public workers should reduce instances of corruption in our government."


snd_oversee_rise_of_thatta =
build_cost = -0.1
"The city of Thatta has the potential to be a great center of culture and trade. We must invent in its infrastructure, its economy, and its religious institutions."


snd_recruit_baloch_tribesmen =
mercenary_discipline = 0.025
"The tribes of Baluchistan have been both enemies and allies of Sindh for generations, their allegiances shifting with the sands. We should approach some of the tribes with an offer; we will pay them well to fight for us, so long as the tribes remain on friendly terms with our nation."

Anticipazione (Spoiler): Gujarati Princedom

Gujarati Princedom Ideas =
start =
merchants = 1
fort_maintenance_modifier = -0.15


bonus =
trade_efficiency = 0.1

guj_kathiawari_horses =
cavalry_power = 0.1
"The horses bred on the Kathiawar peninsular are particularly suited to desert warfare. They are able to endure scorching heat, require minimal feeding, and are able to endure journeys over great distances. We must ensure that there are always enough of these steeds for our cavalrymen to ride into battle."


guj_trading_outposts =
global_own_trade_power = 0.1
"The proximity of the west Indian coast to Arabia opens up opportunities for trade. Merchants being as fickle as they are, we need not conquer existing trading hubs to attract their attention. If we establish our own trading posts and enact policies favorable to foreign merchants, they can be persuaded to do business with us instead of our rivals."


guj_jain_bankers =
interest = -1
"The Jains coontinue to be persecuted throughout much of India, but they shall find a safe haven in the Gujarati kingdoms. Fair treatment of the Jain community has won us the respect of wealthy Jain banking families, who are prepared to offer favorable interest rates to our nation."


guj_rajput_dynasties =
diplomatic_reputation = 1
"Rajput clans have entrenched themselves in Gujarati politics. Their ancient customs and feuds are often a source of tension, but they also lend us credence as a nation relevant to the wider political world."


guj_protect_dwarkadhish_temple =
tolerance_own = 1
"One of the most immportant pilgrimage sites in the Hindu faith, the Dwarkadhish Temple is dedicated to the god Krishna. Regardless of its present custodian, all the Gujarati kingdoms have a responsibility to ensure that it is not sakc or looted by foreign invaders. Fulfilling this duty ensures the continued faith and loyalty of our Hindu subjects."


guj_ashapura_mata =
legitimacy = 1
"Worship of the goddess Ashapura Mata is almost exclusive to Gujarat. She is regarded as the guardian deity of the region, and so respect must be paid to her if we wish our rule to be seen as legitimate by the Gujarati people."


guj_african_trade =
trade_range_modifier = 0.2
"Gujarati traders have established trading routes that extend to the far corners of Asia. Some have even found their way to East Africa, where they trade in ivory, gold, and slaves. We must ensure that the riches of Africa find their way into our coffers."

Anticipazione (Spoiler): Mysorian

Mysorian_ideas =
start =
land_morale = 0.1
free_leader_pool = 1


bonus =
discipline = 0.05

mys_unification_of_mysore =
core_creation = -0.1
"The Mysore plateau, once known as Gangavadi after an ancient dynasty, have been home to strong kingdoms for as long as anyone can remember. Today it is home to both Uddiyars and Ummaturs as well as many other groups. We must unite all of these groups and aim to expand together into the Deccani upland."


mys_patronize_kannada_literature =
legitimacy = 1
"As the major Kannada court we have come to attract many great poets and authors of the beautiful Kannada language. We must patronize and spread Kannada literature and plays, acting as the primary benefactor for the culture of the people of Karnataka."


mys_religious_tolerance =
tolerance_heathen = 2
"We must not let ourselves be caught up in religious strife. Anyone who can serve the state of Mysore must have a place in our country. If we can win the loyalty of all our subjects, and not just those of the true faith, then we will have a solid base to stand on as an expansionist power. Let us donate lavishly to holy places of all religions within our borders and encourage giving out offices regardless of which faith the holder would have."


mys_reform_silk_industry =
global_trade_goods_size_modifier = 0.1
"While the Mysorean economy is strong in many ways we envy the silk industries of Bengal and Gujarat. The best way to improve and support our domestic production might be to send forth agents to study how others have fared and then implement reforms to mimik these things in our own way. Together with the excellent craftsmanship of our own artisans this should allow our economy to flourish."


mys_rockets =
fire_damage = 0.1
"The use of Rockets is nothing new in India but recent advances in metallurgy and chemistry has allowed us to pioneer the use of rockets in close combat. By equipping our troops with this new weapon, and by making sure we regularly practice their use, we will have an edge on any battlefield, siege or ambush."


mys_reform_mysorean_army =
free_mil_policy = 1
"None can question the courage or weaponry of the Mysorean soldier, and yet there are areas we might improve for our armed forces. Let us send forth officers to study in foreign countries so that they might observe what innovations others are employing on the battlefield. Drill, discipline and coordination are all areas in which we might adopt the ways of foreign powers, while adapting them to the realities of an Indian battlefield."


mys_dynamic_diplomacy =
diplomatic_reputation = 1
"No country can exist in isolation, and a kingdom such as ours can attract many greedy rivals. It is time we look for allies overseas, as it seems few of our neighbors would like to contribute further to our rise to power."

Anticipazione (Spoiler): Garjati

garjati_ideas =
start =
global_tax_modifier = 0.1
enemy_core_creation = 0.5


bonus =
stability_cost_modifier = -0.1


securing_defenses_central_indic =
fort defense = 0.15
"Many would consider controlling the hills and jungles of Gondwana, Jharkhand and the Garjats a daunting task and it is true that holding our realm together isn't always easy.\nThe key to doing so lies in controlling and maintaining the many little forts that dot these regions.\nBy securing the loyalty of the chieftains in control of these forts, and making sure they have what they need to keep them in good shape, we can be sure to be able to resist even quite powerful enemies."


garjati_ancient_mandalas =
legitimacy = 1
"For centuries the Garjat country has been divided into a number of Mandalas, and while their origin is now a distant mystery they remain the central points to which many of the smaller tribes and states in this region are loyal. Regardless who has conquered or expanded into Orissa or the Garjat country these structures makes rule both more efficient and less full of friction than it would otherwise be."


garjati_tribal_feudatories =
global_manpower_modifier = 0.15
"The political landscape of the Garjats can seem hard to understand to some. We are able to call in troops from a much wider area than our geographic extent would at first indicate, as there are feudatories loyal to us all over this country."


garjati_extend_tanks_and_reservoirs =
development_cost = -0.1
"Not all lands under our control could be called fertile and suited for agriculture. Especially not if one compared them to the lowlands of the Mahanadi Delta or the Indo-Gangetic plain. For this reason kings and princes have for centuries spent whatever money they had on the construction of great tanks and reservoirs.\nWe must continue this tradition and invest what we can into such things, ensuring that we can have a productive agricultural sector even in lands such as these."


garjati_jungle_warfare =
infantry_power = 0.1
"The Garjat country is dissimilar from many parts of the subcontinent in that it is wilder, and less settled. Jungles and hills cover the entire region and traditional cavalry is much less useful here. Instead we have come to devise our own mode of warfare, reliant on small scale raiding, elephants, and good knowledge of a land that is hard to scout. As we expand we must adapt these skills to new areas, never forgetting that through such tactics even a small army can defeat a much larger foe."


garjati_jagannath_cult =
tolerance_own = 2
"Our lands are in general more open to various religions and cults than many others but the cult of Jagannath, the ‘Lord of the Universe’, transcends faith and time. This deity has protected us and our ancestors for many generations and while some might find our worship a bit unorthodox it unifies the entire region as one."


garjati_patronize_economic_growth =
global_trade_goods_size_modifier = 0.1
"Some would claim that the Garjat country is not rich but there are in fact a great number of natural resources under our control. There are few places as abundant in good timber as the hills of our people and for many years it has been the primary export of this region. We must encourage the growth and effectivisation of the timber industry and further capitalize on one of our greatest assets."

Ci sono altre nuove Idee Nazionali, ma se ne parlerà in futuro. Il prossimo DD parlerà del Content Pack che sarà disponibile oltre al DLC Dharma.

 

Il DLC Dharma e la patch 1.26 Mughals verranno rilasciati il 6 Settembre 2018. Il prezzo del DLC Dharma è €19.99 e si può già preordinare su Plaza e Steam.

Dharma comprende:

• Scegli il tuo goveno: sblocca riforme che definiscono come governi il tuo paese, ottenendo politiche speciali e aumentando il potere di certi estate;

La patch 1.26 Mughals include tra le altre cose una più dettagliata mappa della regione Indiana, un rinnovato sistema degli Estate e un nuovo approccio alle Politiche.

 

EU4 - Development Diary - 14th of August 2018
Oggi si parla del Content Pack che viene venduto separatamente dal DLC Dharma:

Il Dharma Content Pack contiene nuovi ritratti per consiglieri Indiani, modelli di unità (tra cui gli Elefanti) e 12 minuti di musica tematica spettacolare.
Dharma avrà un modello di elefante generico usato da tutte le nazioni. Chi possiede il Content Pack avrà modelli diversi per Musulmani, Hindu o Tribù Orissan. Vediamo un confronto tra l'elefante generico e quello musulmano:

Oltre agli elefanti, ci sono modelli anche per le truppe normali. Per i musulmani, tutti i livelli di unità saranno disponibili per Bahmanis, Gujarat, Jaunpur, Malwa e Mughals. Per gli Indiani ci saranno Nepal, Mewar, Gondwana, Orissa e le nazioni minori dell'India meridionale. Ecco degli esempi:

42 ritratti di consiglieri Indiani sono stati aggiunti al Content Pack:

Per quanto riguarda la musica, per chi volesse avere un'anteprima è possibile ascoltare le nuove canzoni in background in una delle puntate dei Dev Clash di Dharma:

Il Dharma Content Pack verrà rilasciato al prezzo €7.99.

La prossima settimana si parlerà dei 20 Achievements aggiunti nella patch 1.26 Mughal. Ecco in anteprima 3 immagini:

Portando il totale degli achievements a ben 285, sparsi per il mondo e adatti a molti stili di gioco diversi. Si cerca sempre di crearne di interessanti, senza tirare in mezzo World Conquests o ripetere "conquista la Germania con la nazione X". In questa patch dovrebbero essere particolarmente interessanti gli achievement per Kale e per la Danimarca.

Manca poco al rilascio di Dharma. Settimana prossima si farà un riassunto sulle nuove meccaniche e quella successiva verranno rilasciate le Patchnotes.

 

EUIV: Dharma Game Manual [ENG/FR/GER/SPA]

É possibile scaricare il manuale del DLC Dharma nelle seguenti lingue:
Inglese
Francese
Tedesco
Spagnolo

 

EU4 - Development Diary - 28th of August 2018
Oggi si fa un riassunto dei cambiamenti del gioco.

Governi:
Senza Dharma, non ci saranno grossi cambiamenti. Chi acquisterà Dharma invece potrà usare Riforme per cambiare la struttura politica del proprio paese. Le Riforme si generano col tempo, al massimo 10 all'anno in base all'autonomia, e il costo aumenta con ogni Riforma scelta. Cambiare una Riforma già scelta da 10 Corruzione.

Al completamente delle Riforme, si potrà cambiare tipo di governo, come Repubbliche, Teocrazie, Monarchie oppure Orde (vedi il manuale di Dharma per i dettagli).

Estates:
Le Estate sono diventate una feature di base, non richiedono un numero minimo di province e causano disastri al 100% di influenza invece di 80% (vedi DD originale per dettagli dei cambiamenti).
Chi ha Dharma avrà nuove Estate per l'India: Marathas, Rajputs, Brahmins, Vaishyas e Jains.



Politiche:
Sono cambiare per tutti nella patch 1.26 e ci sarà un massimo di 3 per ogni tipo (ADM/MIL/DIP) per un totale massimo di 9. Inoltre, la prima non costa punti monarca. Molte politiche sono cambiate.

Con Dharma ci sono due nuovi modificatori: uno aumenta il numero di Politiche disponibili e un'altro aumenta il numero di politiche senza costo in punti monarca.
Il prossimo DD conterrà il Changelog completo e Dharma verrà rilasciato il 6 Settembre al prezzo di € 19,99.

Ci sono (come ci si poteva aspettare) problemi a continuare un savegame della 1.25.1 con la patch 1.26:

EU4 - Development Diary - 11th of September 2018
Primo DD Post-Dharma, che sembra essere stato un ottimo rilascio, un successo.
Prima di tutto si preannuncia una hotfix, per gestire alcuni problemi:

L'hotfix dovrebbe essere una beta rilasciata in settimana per poi diventare ufficiale dopo un paio di giorni se non ci saranno problemi.

Si inizia poi a parlare della 1.27, che come al solito non dovrebbe essere accompagnata da un DLC ma dovrebbe in generale migliorare una specifica regione. Inoltre la patch renderà il gioco compatibile col GDPR, con un bel disclaimer iniziale da accettare.

A molti non piace la nuova gestione della conversione religiosa. Sicuramente ci saranno dei cambiamenti per migliorare la situazione ma si sta ancora pensando come meglio procedere, quindi se ne parlerà più avanti.

Quindi in breve: hotfix questa settimana, patch 1.27 sempre a breve, conversione religiosa sotto esame dopo i lamenti. Ma la patch 1.27 su cosa si focalizzerà? É il momento di ricordarsi che il gioco si chiama Europa Universalis.

Quindi probabilmente Polonia a giudicare dallo screenshot.
