Or I could just wait until Sol gives me an answer--I don't want an in-depth map, just the outline that's gotten by using F12.

I just take the map screenie using F12, then open it and re-save it as a PNG file. My resolution is 1920x1200.

Don't save it as a JPG file, that muddles it up.

I am: back! Are there any countries left? Besides Portugal?  :yuk:

not sure if teutonic order is still alive with Viking on the rampage.

That was A.I. Poland, not me.

Assuming you actually want to play and will pay attention to the thread, I think your best bet for playable countries are Portugal, Brandenburg (TO is dead, Brandenburg can eventually form Prussia), or Lithuania (since Poland is...less than workable at the moment.

Of course, if you relish a challenge, you might play Poland and try to reclaim everything (I'd help you against Hungary, at least).

TO is dead
LO is alive. Still Viable.
Poland has lost 1 province to Hungary, 2 provinces to Austria, but has annexed the 3 province TO. Still viable.
Lithuania is weakened but no longer in the PU. Still Viable.
Brandenburg is a 3PM and a vassal of Austria. Not Viable.

Hungary is viable.
Portugal is viable.
Denmark is viable.

I mean, a coalition of European nations cooperating to bring down the leading power is just SOOOOOO gamey.

No kidding. One doesn't volunteer to play Austria thinking that someone might gang up on them!

The entire point of MP EU3 is carefully arranged 1v1 fights.

Exactly. And beating up on the A.I.

There was a time when you would have refused.

That is why I said "at *this* time".

All I need to get through this bloody reformation is

1. Some cash
2. A dead king.

1. Take a loan, you can pay it back when you are at +3
2. Make your monarch a general, he'll live shorter.

1. Taking loans are much too expensive - 10% interest per year! Much better to just get help from those who would like to see a strong and prosperous England who might be in a condition to help others in turn later.
2. Done. He is in charge of every single fight, in fact! He is very much a "lead from the front" sort of guy. Maybe that is why everyone hates him so much? He is desperate to prove that he deserves to be king. Really!

1. Hire a few bankers, they reduce interest. Get 10 stars worth of bankers and you have free loans.
2. Kings don't die in battle like other generals. Just the mere fact of being a general kills your monarch quicker. Another option is changing to some for of republic.

Funny, you never get the advisers you need. When I started that game, I needed 1 single colonial advisor, none to be found. Now I could use a stability guy - none to be had, but I can get as many 20% (even a 5 or 6 star guy) colonial range guys as I like. Theologian so I can pass Superintendents? Nope, nary a one...

How disappointing. I've been working hard to make sure he is in charge of every fight, figured there was some random chance per fight. Too bad.
