Quote from: Razgovory on December 10, 2025, 07:56:18 PMIs that the position of the Greens or Your Party?  "We support you but..."

I see what you're doing there.
You know this is the way good support is meant to work right?
Not just blind cheerleading but trying to steer those you support away from doing stupid and terrible things?

More on the fake question, no idea what Your Party say, the Greens are on that wavelength however as are most mainstream parties in Europe.

Pulling the old Trump tactic.  "Fake question!"

Quote from: crazy canuck on Today at 11:07:42 AMOne of the main reasons for building a hospital and other health related buildings in your capital is to try to increase the longevity of your court characters.

I am surprised you didn't experience young characters dying in your game. Did turn disease off in the options?

Not unless they are turned off by default.

I got constant death spam to but everybody was dying rather late in life.

Quote from: Josquius on Today at 05:50:50 AMCK gets that way on occasion but less so since thats the core of the game.

Also in CK you would have people die young. People would be infertile. People would be murdered or try to murder you. People would go insane. There would be plots.

None of this happens in EUV. Every woman seems to have several children who all grow up to adulthood who do next to nothing of note and die at a ripe old age.

That is not accurate. There is character trait variability in EU5 and characters can die young, as happened to one of my heirs.

Ah. Well that's good. I had played up until the 1600s and none of my kids died young. And I didn't notice any of my courtier's kids dying young. But maybe there were just so many of them I didn't notice. They need to make infant and child mortality more common...historically common.

It's pretty clear fuck the youngism with the fonts.
Serif fonts are easier to read on paper.
Sans serifs fonts are easier to read on screens.
This is typography 101.

Yet another area where maga are letting some pathetic culture war nonsense that means nothing to anyone else reduce the efficiency of government.

That is not accurate. There is character trait variability in EU5 and characters can die young, as happened to one of my heirs that had good stats. I found that to be a cool part of the game. I felt the loss of a character who was going to become a great ruler.

It is axiomatic that judges interpret the laws passed by the legislative branch. This week the Premier of BC is being highly critical of the way in which the courts are interpreting legislation he brought in when he was the AG, which meant that all BC laws had to be interpreted in a manner consistent with UNDRIP.

And guess what the Court of Appeal said BC laws need to be interpreted in a manner consistent with UNDRIP.  Just like the Premier's legislation said it does.
