If you're a minor and some big bad tries to enforce peace on you, that's an incentive to make friends with the other big bads or with a series of minors, who can hopefully then swarm on the France Wasp like a bunch of bees and eventually overheat the bastard and make him stop.

thing is though, regarding MP, no matter how many players you have (below 30 or so) you will always have at least a couple on the edges who can rape assorted AI nations with impunity. Unless that enforce peace thing stops it now. We will see.

Well it's one of the perks of being a great power in EU4, if I take what PE wrote in his blog, and in any MP all great powers will most probably be players. So either the player on the edge settles for a smaller peace before a month, or his ass gets stomped.

Because of that, I highly suspect there will be house rules preventing Enforce Peace within a month, because it's not fun when you are a very minor power to be told "don't expand or I smash you" by a neighboring great power player. Everyone wants to be a contender in a MP game.

if you do that houserule, you might as well stick with eu3. And in general I hate house rules like that.

PSA : Demo is available from Steam  :cool:

So I started to play the tutorial, just the basic one so far. Feels like things have gotten pretty slick just from looking through the various screens / commands.

Also I'm embarrassed that I forgot about how spacebar became a pause key. :blush:

I tried Portugal, won Casablanca in a war and cored it the following year. Then a few years on it somehow transferred back to Morocco. I'm not sure what happened, but I'll write it of as demo-sickness or my incompetence.

Since I have already pre-ordered the game it seems I am unable to download and install the demo. :(

Actually I looked that up as I had same issue. Just exit and restart steam. Worked fine for me then.

Worked as a charm for me too. :)

It's WAD, it seems England used the Return Core war demand in his peace with France+Portugal, which allows to force you to return provinces to its rightful owner.

Yeah, would make sense to let you know that clearly though.

Indeed. It could be a nice option to have in peace deals though. And will force you to actually try and save your allies so that they don't give away your land. :P

One of the devs said he will look it up. He confirmed it is not normal that there is no notification.
