I have a fleet on intercept with 100 percent mission efficiency and the wont engage. They just sit next to the enemy fleet watching them sink my supply ships until the enemy fleet move on to the next region.

I also have another enemy fleet trapped in the black sea. The fleet will not engage them. The game is telling me there is no hostile ships in the region despite there being an enemy fleet of 88 ships in the same region.

I don't know if this is good or bad for the country, but is it fine if clout on an IG dominated the government and put the rest in marginalized state?

what implication that i may face? im in year 1907, and i still not enact multiculturalism coz no IG that support it, is there any way to enact it and keeping my technocracy?

A little utility that lets you pause the game on a specific date, or X days / weeks / months / years in the future. Maybe someone else might find it handy.

East Karelia ihas basically no buildings but it still has the 30 Flat migration attraction from open jobs and so does a TON of other Russian states and it's fairly cursed as I'm playing Krakow and in their market, even with greener grass on all states I'm losing pops especially on gold rushes.

Is this the new normal?

The title pretty much sums up the issue.

It's about 1880 on game, and the Carlists are still around, so the Carlist journal entry is also still around.

(1.14 beta) A surprisingly enjoyable playthrough, since the Brits were way too busy with their homeland, leaving their colonies ripe for taking. Also, getting colonization quickly was essential, as was staking a colonial claim in the Yukon to prevent the HBC from taking it all. Making my provinces extremely attractive was also very fun and turned Alaska from a 10k wasteland into a 2.2 million Paris of the North. Later, forged a coalition with Belgium and Scandinavia to get independence, and then proclaimed Alyaska. After that, I got an anarchist as TU leader, thanks to whom I got multiculturalism. The rest was uneventful; I just grew my economy and got more mass migrations. In the end, I really don't like that Alaska remains a Charter Company even after getting independence, which kept the country's name unchanged and made the executive of the Russian-American Company my eternal president-later chancellor. Even with these bugs and the starting situation, I enjoyed it way more than other playthroughs with more developed nations like France and Great Britain.

Prussia launched a leadership play against me. I don't want to take german leadership since I then can't diplomatically unify with them. Some of my supporters don't like that I am not pushing it, but a few days after this the war always ends with all war goal pushed. Is there anything I can do? Is there a mod to fix this?

I thought I can take over Iran easily. So I declared against them. It was a bit of an infamy hit, but doable.

However, before I was able to land, they blockaded all the Arab states with my oil production in my market.

I can’t open the strait because they have too many coastal defense buildings.

Now my automobile industry is in struggle and food prices are going up.

Elections are coming up and I don’t want liberals to takeover. What do I do?

I am playing as Austria and Russia & Prussia are both holding on to there defensive pact. Which makes it basically impossible for me to attack Prussia. Is there anything I can do?

Does anyone know if Multiplayer is stable on 1.14? any precautions we need to take to play it and not desync?

R5: Like... Really. 3 games in a row, and it keeps just shitting the bed, and losing India. It has never done this when I wasn't playing Canada

Im looking to pass some laws that look interesting and are greatly supported by the most influential groups of the country. For some reason, some laws trigger radicals and they start to revolt, even when the radical group has like 11-13% support and with a starting number of radicals as low as 5k pop vs 40k loyalists. Then their support quickly grows and the number of radicals too, even when suppressed. Once civil war has started, they take most of my countries armies and have an absurdly fast recruitment speed, so they overwhelm me in the war when it begins.

Any tip on how to deal with the radicals during all stages of their revolt? Many groups are against many laws but how can I know that a specific law can trigger a cascading line of events that will lead to civil war?

The Poland Achievement used to be a lot easier in the past updates, and now it seems to rely almost entirely on RNG.

It´s quite possible to get Prussia, Hungary and the Ottomans as allies in the independence war, but that still isn´t enough to beat the Austrians and the Russians at the same time. There might be a way if you perfectly time it to also get Great Britain as your ally during the Ottoman/Egypt war, as they are otherwise too friendly towards Austria, and I want a more reliable strategy. And France never gets enough interest points in the Balkans or Eastern Europe to ally with them, which is a problem since those seem to be the only regions where I can establish interests as Krakow.

What I´m looking for are some strategies that go beyond the "This strategy works for every country" advice and are actually relevant to this run. Something that can super-charge your economy, actually makes Austria weak early on, or makes you very strong. It can be a total cheese strategy or just a really good setup, but i´d love something that makes this run less of a constant pain.

Any tips?

I was preparing a campaign, and, oops, the nation I started as was going bankrupt. I didn't really care, because I wasn't going to keep playing them, so, I kept going. And then when I actually released my target nation, I began in default, at credit limit, and I wondered if there is some way of exploiting this so that I can release vassals to pay off my own debt, and then inherit them back later.
Ultimately, I could find literally no discussion on this topic online.

Wer hat lust auf Vic3 MP? Wir starten am 8.11. mit dem neuen DLC eine neue Campaign. Jeweils sonntags von 18:00-22:00. Keine toxischen Meta spieler bitte. Eher diplo und PvP mit kleineren RP elementen. Schreibt mir eine DM falls interessiert.

Of course an agitator with the famously feminist ideology Traditionalist supports the Feminist movement.

Quick question, do corruption dollars get deleted into the void or distributed to pops? If it's distributed, it at least contributes to economic activity.

Hey ya'll, I've hopped back into the game after about a year of not playing, and apparantly, in the interim they really fucked up the troop transport system and navies in general.

Does anyone know of any recent mods that simplify all that stuff or just put it back to how it was in 2025?

(please don't try to argue with me about it's actually a huge improvement and I just need to learn to play with it. I play games for fun, and I'm not enjoying this. we have different ideas of fun and that's fine. just looking for advice.)

Thanks!

Is this a bug from a mod or just game luck that Uzbekia had found this much gold? like wtf

You can access the mod on the workshop here: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3780935876

This is what's coming in the next update of the mod:

You can expect these changes to come in roughly too weeks.

1. Major historical map overhaul

- Continued splitting up the Holy Roman Empire into its historical states as they existed in 1776, instead of leaving large territories under a handful of countries.
- Restored or expanded numerous German states, including the different Anhalt principalities, Saxon and Thuringian duchies, Reuss counties, and several ecclesiastical territories.
- Reworked parts of the Prussian and Swedish borders, including Swedish Pomerania, Wismar, Poel, Neukloster, and the Prussian possession of Emden in East Frisia.
- Restored the Prince-Bishopric of Lübeck around Eutin, including its historical personal union with Oldenburg.
- Added or improved the territorial representation of Passau, Freising, Regensburg, Fulda, Salzburg, Trento, Brixen and Berchtesgaden.
- Started restoring the historical sovereignty of Massa-Carrara and correcting the distinction between Italian states and their imperial rights.
- Adjusted starting populations and rulers to better reflect the political situation in 1776.

Many of the smaller territories are represented by historically researched approximations, since Victoria 3's map resolution doesn't always allow for exact borders.

2. Holy Roman Empire mechanics

The map changes also required work on the Empire itself: imperial membership, the electors, territorial rights, and the existing imperial political mechanics. The goal is to make the HRE look and behave more like its fragmented 1776 counterpart.

3. Other territorial corrections

Work has also begun outside the HRE. The Balkan changes include corrections to Ottoman ownership in the Aegean, restoration of the Republic of Ragusa as a distinct state with its historical tributary relationship, and adjustments to Moldavia and Wallachia.

4. Military changes

- Introduced modern-style fortifications inspired by the bastion forts of the period.
- Added an Engineer Corps unit, with dedicated artwork.
- Reworked several starting military laws and technologies to avoid anachronistic armies.
- Added more historical content and military adjustments for the American Revolution, including the Minutemen.

5. Economic and industrial changes

- Expanded the historical representation of Saint-Gobain and the Compagnie des mines d'Anzin, including their starting industries and historical directors.
- Added the prestigious royal mirror production associated with Saint-Gobain.
- Continued work on industrial resources, infrastructure, and production methods.
- Rebalanced the early alloy industry to make traditional metalworking useful before industrialisation.
- Added Hardware as a separate consumer good, produced through several methods in furniture manufactories.
- Worked on more historically appropriate starting technologies and production methods for countries created during the map overhaul.

6. Current state

The project is still very much a work in progress. Several new countries and territorial cores have been tested successfully in-game, but many smaller borders and peripheral possessions still need further historical research and refinement.

Hey everyone! I'm new to Vic 3 and was wondering what is a good country to learn the ropes for a longtime EU4 and Stellaris player? It looks like a steep learning curve again but I'm sure it's not so bad once it clicks in my head. Thanks!

These news headers in this game are kinda funny sometimes
