Is there anything that a noob should know about EU multiplayer games?  Technical stuff, the way human-human diplomacy is conducted, etc.?

It's the same. But in general proclaim guarantees to allow yourself to support your allies. If you are Spain then your Hapsburg brothers in Germany will be seeking arrangements of the status of italy and other localities.

If you are Spain, you should ignore what the current 800-pound gorilla tells you and try to take a slice of Italy for yourself.
The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.

I want to know how Habs can top income charts while expanding as much as everyone else. :P

I'd have to look at each other country in turn to tell you what they're doing wrong, but somewhere along the lines they are fucking up.

What I want to know is how you get the map-shot taken from in-game with F12 to show up properly like you do.

In the middle of the Reformation?

Sweden is also in the middle of the Reformation and, as you may have noticed, lost a pretty big war against Castille.

Well, your presumption that "seeking arrangements" means "all your greaseball base are belong to us" is highly presumptive. I presume he wants part of Italy and I'm happy to discuss it.

try "Print Screen" and then Ctrl-V in paint.

Which is exactly why I'm trying to figure out how to get a clearer map, Viking.

You've already got all of the parts worth having.  I'm not saying he shouldn't try to bargain over them with you, but I don't suspect you'll freely give up so many universities.  Then again, I don't understand why Katmai just let you do it, so what do I know?

We discussed it in a civilized manner. No threats or intimidation was used.

It's just you and Berkut that assume that just because my lips are moving I must be making threats. I have kept my deals. Katmai has benefited immensely from having an army 1/3 the size of mine. I, however, have been expecting a stab and have been preparing to take my righteous wrath out on whoever stabs me. As far as I'm concerned Katmai has benefited most from my diplomacy.

Change your screen resolution to the highest within the game (1920x1200). Then zoom to the relevant areas and print screen alt-tab out and ctrl-v into paint. It's better to do it that way than trying to get all of europe... or send me the file and I'll do it.

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.

We discussed it before hand.
But I had no idea how far reaching his intentions were as was too focused on vassals, prottys and exploring, till it was late in session and saw the white blob creeping closer in south besides the walloonian borders.
