Voltaire's Nightmare

15th-16th century update:
The black death tweak seems worked, but still the east is vastly underpopulated. More importantly, instutions couldnt go there. This is the reason of 3 development middle asia and eastern anatolia. Even north African great powers cant reach public health, still. Novgorod is back like two instutions; mamlukes, almohads and levant area three, and timurids came from, like, stone age - they couldnt reach chivalry in nearly 100 years. In all my previous games Almohads and nomads were scarry brutes but now even a vassal could wipe them from the map. In my new game Alania's armies (basic alania, ten provinces max) is at transoxiana.

How could I tweak it, if I can? I like to play minor, tiny states (beginning at 3th or 4th bookmark) and I cant play like this. All the bullies fly in the wind and some other can establish an empire in 50 years. Like Kiev and eastern Romans.

All unique country mission trees got removed from the mod in the recent update for a number of reasons. They are supposed to get readded step by step if and when they get reworked by me or a volunteer.
Since I'm the only active coder of this mod, I usually prioritize more important things to work on, e.g. all the other things you can read in the changelog. This is why I only managed to rework the generic mission trees and omitted any unique mission trees for the update.

thanks a lot. Since my first try, I couldnt quit vn and play with another mod. Your work is the best. I wasnt expect any updates so the update was a pleasant surprise to me. If you ever feel down think about your work here and be proud, mate. I hope in the future vn would flourish with your new and magnificent ideas. Cheers.

@Harald Hardrada The Black Death disaster was made stronger as players called it too weak. Provinces being lowered to only 3 dev was probably overkill so the next patch will reduce the dev loss.

is black death disaster changed? I cant solve it without waiting 10 years, so I bunkrupted for no gain. In all of my previous games I rushed to instution and quickly solved it but this time even after public health it said I should wait for 10 years.

Also ALL of the world turned 3 development except few cities like milan. I know how much people died in plague but ALL of the world is 3 development now. My new england pirate empire turned to dust in one year but I the real problem is now there is not any important cities. ALL of the cities 3 development and AI is developing them all together so there will be no difference between important centers and others. I dont know how I should feel about this.

Hi everyone.What happened to the mission tree?

@matvienko82 Only de jure.

Please add new ideas and missions. Historically, Morea was a vassal of Byzantium in 1444

I really like this mod and thanks for the working progress. I hope mission trees will be back soon to continue my run with Byzantium :)

When will the mission trees be back?
