I agree completely, thank you for your response.

Something I've noticed playing as Suomi: The Elder structure is supposed to increase your progress token chance by 1%, but it doesn't seem to work. Even with this structure in many provinces this bonus doesn't appear in the progress token chance tooltip in the overview, and when I'm playing I don't ...

Thanks!

I noticed that FoG2:M has a "Conversion Setting" and I'm wondering what it does specifically? The tooltip says it does something with unit conversion from FoG:K but I don't know what. Does it make the battles larger?

I think you're right, thanks!

Regarding Indian countries' "eastern expansion" mechanic: Does it matter what kind of troops I send east? Is it just the number of units, or the quality as well? Basically, does it matter if I send 40 peasant militia or 40 heavy cavalry?

With today's update I decided to start another campaign, but I noticed something strange: Suomi has access to muslim religious structures even though it's a pagan nation. Is this a bug?

Playing as Suomi and Vepsians a few times i've never gotten the option to build surface mining. I was able to build a lead mine after conquering estonia but aside from that i've never had the option of building a mine, surface or otherwise. It's frustrating because religious buildings require copper...

Why can't tribal nations mine iron? Also, why can't tribal nations use surface mining (of any kind(?

Awesome!

Yeah I've played Suomi and Vepsians and neither has access to the Large Temple. Is that a bug?

How do you get the Large Temple building? I haven't seen that yet. By the way, i've figured out a solution for the authority problem. With every authority structure built providing Authority Events of +1 per turn and Stewardship Events providing +1 per turn, starting as Suomi which has only 4 region...

Thanks for the advice, it's very helpful! Especially with getting more Noble Population, that's a good idea.

I'm 120 turns into a new Vepsians campaign and i have a couple questions about what you said here: "Your goal is to maintain in the middle third while setting Very High Chance of Sap Authority RGD, while dumping every other decision besides Create Vassal to the bottom. Thats for one. Another th...

I'll try this strategy, thanks for the advice! It's still frustrating that the highest authority can get in peacetime is around 57, but if that's a deliberate design decision then i'll just have to get used to it haha.

I appreciate the suggestion! Unfortunately that doesn't solve the problem. Winning battles and taking claims only give small authority boosts, and they quickly drop down to 57 again, or even lower because the more territory you occupy the faster your authority drops. In general it takes at least 5 t...

Regarding Authority: I have the Rajas and Tribes DLC and I've played 200 turns as the Vepsians and 50 turns as the Suomi, and in both cases I've run into situations where it's impossible to get into the upper Authority tier to get progress tokens. In the first case, even after building everything th...
