Map Issues
Lay em at me. This map was rushed and the colours... I never want to see colour again... But yea, squished in like 40 colours so go easy on me if there are mistakes. Scandinator (talk) 14:26, February 6, 2014 (UTC)

The changes from this treaty need to be added. Specifically, the area of the Baltics that was previously in the Polish sphere go to Prussia directly, parts that were accidentally colored to Novgorod go to Muscovy, and the Muscovite vassal of Ukraine should be colored Muscovy's color. Lastly, from the Treaty of St. Gallen the German speaking parts of modern day Switzerland should be part of Austria directly. Mscoree (talk) 14:37, February 6, 2014 (UTC)

With the Baltic States, they were never vassalized, only influenced and thus are still independent. Muscovy is fixed though. And I touched up Switzerland Scandinator (talk) 15:29, February 6, 2014 (UTC)

There's a small section of Venice in the slavic areas which is currently shaded dark but not Venetian colour. Further Genoa's colony in the Black Sea (I think) is not their colour. On a final positive note: Glad that the treaties from my wars were implemented correctly :) Kunarian TALK 15:39, February 6, 2014 (UTC)

A couple of small things about the map of the Mamluks. 1. We have Ramazan, Makuria, and Banu Sulaym as a vassal. 2. We have 20,000 sq km. of expansion along the coast towards Ethiopia. 3. Banu Sulaym has 10,000 sq km. of expansion towards the Sultanate proper. 23:20, February 6, 2014 (UTC)

Hey for Castile my settlement of the Canaries is on the wrong island its on Porta which is literally right next to it. the Canaries are the grouping below it so i was just wondering if we could switch that up please


 * I don't know what this Porta is, but the point is that somehow the settlement is on Madeira when Feudal said multiple times that it was in the Canaries.--Collie Kaltenbrunner (talk) 10:05, February 7, 2014 (UTC)

Also France has a small colony in lanzarote since 1400 could you add it to the map. Sine dei gloriem &#34;Ex Initio Terrae&#34; (talk)

Scan, as you can see here in this map - this is Hungary's requested colour. I also now control the lands on the map. Thank you. Imp (Say Hi?!) 23:49, February 7, 2014 (UTC)

Moldavia is now a vassal of Wallachia, just for future mapmaking. Stephanus rex (talk) 13:39, February 8, 2014 (UTC)

Labelled


These great and wonderful maps have been made and labelled by Scandinator. Please be sure to thank him for his intense dedication and deep-level research that he put into these maps.

Cultural
This map, made by Reximus, shows the rough cultural divides that make up the Principia Moderni III universe.

Note rough, this image is far from perfect, but attempts (I feel effectively) to convey the different cultures within the PM3 world.


 * Dark Brown - North American
 * Light Brown - South American
 * Dark Red - Central African
 * Red - Southern Africa
 * Light Green - Arab
 * Dark Green - Turkish
 * Light Yellow - Mongol
 * Yellow - East Asian
 * Olive Green - Indian
 * Teal Blue - Indonesian
 * Dark Purple - Greek
 * Light Purple - Slavic
 * Dark Blue - Celtic
 * Light Pink - German
 * Dark Pink - Scandinavian
 * Red-Pink - British
 * Light Blue - Italian
 * Perwinkle - French
 * Blue - Iberian

Why is Bulgaria turkish? They were an indepentent nation with a long history until 1396, only a short time before our start date, surely they are still Bulgarian culturaly? (Yes I get that the balkans are a pain to map because of the different cultural groups, but it is an important distinction)Stephanus rex (talk) 04:11, February 4, 2014 (UTC)

Because this map doesn't take into account individual areas, just the countries as a whole.A map with individual cultural areas would be endlessly complicated.--Collie Kaltenbrunner (talk) 11:01, February 5, 2014 (UTC)

Not sure how to classify Mangut Nivkhgu - the base culture is Paleosiberian (Nivkh is a language isolate) - but I'm guiding the Nivkhs to adopt East Asian customs. Commandante Lemming (talk) 18:34, February 6, 2014 (UTC)

Religious


Another unofficial map by Reximus, this map shows the primary religion of the state. Again, this is roughly sketched from what I think the world's religions looked like in 1400. Feel free to re-color your state(s), but please do not add colors to the map.

A color key!


 * Red - Animist, Pagan, or Other
 * Green - Islam (No Shiite/Sunni distinction made)
 * Yellow - Catholic
 * Orange - Orthodox
 * Blue - Hindu
 * Purple - Shinto
 * Mustard - Buddhist

Mangut Nivkhgu (Nivkhia) has become Buddhist. -Commandante Lemming (talk) 18:32, February 6, 2014 (UTC)

Can we do a catholic politics distiction? like show who follows which pope? Jaumet (talk)

Scan is back
I'm back guys, started continuing on the map, rules and nation list. To make things easy for me please don't edit things and post your grievances here. In addition, I do suggest a mod chat on something like facebook or skype or another messaging service.

No way, i don't have none of these.--Collie Kaltenbrunner (talk) 07:17, January 17, 2014 (UTC)

Skype may work. Collie, it's a free download here. Mscoree (talk) 11:28, January 17, 2014 (UTC)

Hm. What about a google doc? It's essentially the same as a wiki page, and if you people don't have gmail accounts, it's pretty easy to do. Fed (talk) 12:48, January 17, 2014 (UTC)

Skype doesn't require social networking, although I think I like the idea of a Google doc better actually. Mscoree (talk) 15:06, January 17, 2014 (UTC)

Google Doc is much better. Commandante Lemming (talk) 16:15, January 17, 2014 (UTC)

Here is a Google Doc I created if we want to use it. Either send me your email (preferred) or request access after clicking on that link so I can add all the moderators access. Mscoree (talk) 19:06, January 17, 2014 (UTC)

Okay several people have been added to the document. Would the moderators mind clarifying who they are on the doc? Mscoree (talk) 00:26, January 18, 2014 (UTC)

If we have an email other than google, is it still valid for use on google docs? CourageousLife (talk) 05:12, January 19, 2014 (UTC)

I was looking over the early mod events for England and they don't quite fit. Sine and I will end the Hundred Years' War during its lull, making at least the first mod event null and void.Bowties are Cool (talk) 05:48, January 19, 2014 (UTC)

Theoretically, it could be removed, or... do you think that there was ever any chance of the Epiphany Rising being successful?--Collie Kaltenbrunner (talk) 08:00, January 19, 2014 (UTC)

We should probably take the discussion to the page, but to answer your questions, I wrote the moderator event so that it hints that England has a choice. It says he wants to invade France again, but has reasons not to. Secondly the Epiphany Rising was pretty much over by the start of the game so I think it's too late to change that. It was pretty much over by January of 1400 after being largely unsuccessful. Mscoree (talk) 14:01, January 19, 2014 (UTC)

Is this discussion already going on in the Google Docs discussion, because I feel kind of left out. CourageousLife (talk) 16:10, January 20, 2014 (UTC)

I added myself.

Still working on the map, been dead tired from work these last couple days. It'll be done soon with the rules too. Scandinator (talk) 14:42, January 23, 2014 (UTC)

Hey Scan - MS told me topost the following from the Mod Page, I figure in this case it's worth posting:

"Try to get as much done as you can, but if you don’t finish in time feel free to upload it so that others can help out. - MS"

Commandante Lemming (talk) 21:48, January 23, 2014 (UTC)

I'm just touching up Asia now. I'll have everything done for the map soon, Europe and Africa are mostly done with Africa needing cosmetics and the Americas are like no work at all. Scandinator (talk) 16:08, January 26, 2014 (UTC)

The nations list is almost complete with only Africa missing. I'll touch up on the last few things today and tomorrow in the rules and the final map will be uploaded tomorrow night. I request that no-one edit the main page from 00:00 UTC on 2 February till 01:00 UTC on the same day as I require time to upload the mod response to the first turn. In addition can mods start sending messages to players to warn them of the 1st of February start? Scandinator (talk) 07:17, January 28, 2014 (UTC)

No, Seriously.
Can we make the changes I proposed in a few sections prior, to the algo?

22:42, January 23, 2014 (UTC)

I think it is a great idea. 00:45, January 24, 2014 (UTC)

Since Scan is making the rules, you'll have to ask his permission first. and i, for one, do not understand what you tried to propose.--Collie Kaltenbrunner (talk) 07:04, January 24, 2014 (UTC)

I said:

I propose the following Algorithm changes.


 * 1) Location should be done in Multiples of 5. Currently, it doesn't matter at all what the location is. Over time, the differences should get smaller, but frankly, currently, it's ridiculous.
 * 2) The Motives are somewhat hopeless. I can think of many wars that would be hard to fit into these categories. Instead, may I recommend using the Motive system from AvA: R-word?
 * 3) Military aid. It's the same penalty for military aid and leading in a war?? What??
 * 4) Nation Age. This just encourages players not to switch governments, because otherwise they get a -10 in everything.

Currently-


 * 1) Location barely matters at all. A country right across the world can easily annex another thousands of miles away, if they have some strength. What's a 4 point difference when you have every other advantage?
 * 2) The motives only apply to certain circumstances, and cannot really be applied everywhere. The motive system I suggested, from AvA R-word, is far better.
 * 3) Recent wars give a penalty of the same size for leading a war- as in sending a giant army- and giving military aid, as in sending noncombatant trainers or arms or anything of that sort. Makes NO sense.
 * 4) Currently, players do not change governments, as would be plausible, because they do not wish to incur a -10 penalty. That penalty should be lowered to the same as the "Ancient nation" one.

Well, then, this is the talkpage- Scan can reply here.

I have some experience writing algos, if that helps...

22:10, January 24, 2014 (UTC)

The third point is not true.If you lead a war, on the recent wars, you are going to have a penalty of one point for each year you fought in it.However, if you just give military aid, you get a one point penalty for the war as a whole.--Collie Kaltenbrunner (talk) 08:29, January 25, 2014 (UTC)

Ahh- I understand. The others still stand, however.

23:59, January 25, 2014 (UTC)

I have changed 1. In regards to 4, the -10 is only for 5 years and is to demonstrate the vulnerability of a new governing system. I have added a new category to ensure at least one change this game for every player. I hope that should suffice. And lastly, is an example for number 2 possible? Scandinator (talk) 16:35, January 26, 2014 (UTC)


 * If I may:


 * We need more diversified motives that could easily fit different wars. Last game, some wars were confusing because the motives were very limited, and easy to take advantage of. This game, we need a better system of motives. I, for one, am not a fan of the motive 'because I wanted to'. I think there needs to be a clear and consice motive behind every war. CourageousLife (talk) 17:09, January 26, 2014 (UTC)

I don't know.But we should have something like a 5 for ideological motive, because last game, some players (Viva) were resorting to claim ideological motive for their wars, and there were no rules for ideological motives.--Collie Kaltenbrunner (talk) 16:42, January 26, 2014 (UTC)

Ideological motive should only be for the attacker, and only if all attackers on the attacking side share the same ideology. So no fascists and communists fighting republicans. Also, fascist and republicans vs republican is big no.

17:16, January 26, 2014 (UTC)

Here is the AvA motive system...


 * Economic (Gains land, resorce, etc): +2
 * Defending territory not owned by nation more than 20 years: +3
 * Defending territory not part of heartland but held for more than 20 years: + 4
 * Taking territory of similar culture but not part of nation: + 4
 * Aiding an Ally: + 5
 * Pre-emptive Strike: +5
 * Taking back territory recently held by nation but since lost: + 6
 * Aiding Social/Moral Kinsmen who are being oppressed: + 6
 * Attacking to enforce politcal hegemony: +6
 * Defending Heartland from attack that will not cripple/ destroy nation: + 7
 * Major Ideological/Religious beliefs
 * Defending Core/heartland from possibly fatal attack + 8
 * Defending from nuclear armed nation that has a motive over 5 and has not yet used their weaponry: + 8
 * Defending from nuclear armed nation, regardless of motive, that has used said weaponry: + 9
 * Defending from attack that will wipe out nation and culture: + 10
 * Modifiers:
 * Non-democratic Government supported by people: + 3
 * Democratic government supported by people: + 4
 * Government not supported by people: -5
 * WAR not supported by people (democratic) : -3
 * WAR not supported by people (non-democratic): -2
 * Troop Morale high (requires motive over 5, chance over 6, and stronger development scores in at least one category): + 5
 * Troop Morale low (any of the above: chance below 1, lower development scores in all categories, recent war penalty over 8): -5
 * Fighting Guerilla War: -5 attacker, + 1 defender
 * Warning: Negative motive scores are possible!!
 * Lead nation's motive, not average.

 18:58, January 26, 2014 (UTC)

You have to admit, it is much more thorough.

Can I also recommend giving NPCs automatic chance scores of 5?

19:07, January 26, 2014 (UTC)

I think I'd be more willing to support this new motive chart, for the reason being it is much more specific and intricate, meaning it can more accurately be applied to more scenarios. CourageousLife (talk) 20:09, January 26, 2014 (UTC)

I would like to recommend that a non-democratic government gain an edge over the democratic government. Democratic nations tend to suffer from public unrest over prolonged wars, while dictatorships are able to keep the people under control during equally long conflicts. Also, in dictatorships, the population is often conditioned from youth to accept the war (depending on the age of the government) or highly supportive of their nation (nationalism at times), while democracies often spin into debates over whether or not the conflict is worth the risk. Given the more open and more vocal media in democracies, the people will often complain faster than those in nations where the press is censored or at the very least, moderated. Vivaporius: "I don't need a slogan" 02:31, January 28, 2014 (UTC)


 * That is by and large not true. A government, democratic or non-democratic will be on the same footing, a democratic government not supported by the people however is on a better footing than a non-democratic one as in a democratic nation they can simply change the government in an election whereas people will just go directly to overthrowing a non-democratic one. Further one conditioning youth to accept war in non-democratic/democratic nations, please look to the USA (pronounced Oo-sah).


 * You are right however people in democracies will complain quicker but that is because that is their outlet, the equivalent in a non-democratic nation is them joining a rebel movement or planting a bomb near an officials home. Non-democratic governments really don't wear and tear as well as democratic ones. Kunarian TALK 09:59, January 28, 2014 (UTC)

That is bullshit.

02:38, January 28, 2014 (UTC)

Further if you really want to highlight the differences between a democratic and non-democratic government, then as soon as a non-democratic government loses a war it should immediately face internal rebellion and revolt. However I think that the real reason the issue is being brought up is so that the algorithm can be played off by people wanting to create world spanning empires. Kunarian TALK 10:01, January 28, 2014 (UTC)

That's a good point, Viva- but if the people didn't support the war- if they weren't in favor- then you wouldn't get the Democratic advantage, for instance. I've added in another modifier which gives a -3 if the WAR is not supported. :p

This should fix the problem.

After 2 years, the Coalition can take 47.025% of Muscovy, resulting in an overthrow of government.

The new government will be a Grand Duchy under Personal Union with Lithuania.

Ustyug and Great Perm will go to the Golden Horde as Vassals.

Pskov will be granted its independence.

Discussion
Before you join in favor of the underdog (Muscowy) realize that we have over 33%, (we actually have 55%) and that your joining in on the war would be suicidal. 01:30, February 2, 2014 (UTC)

I did the basics for the algo, but Rex modified it a bit after I showed it to him. Do you guys think that Sweden and Norway should get a L or an LV? Fed (talk) 01:33, February 2, 2014 (UTC) According to the changes to the Norse governance as set out by Guns himself last turn, there appears to be a great deal of equality between the nobles of the different nations. This would suggest equal status, and therefore no vassal status. 01:38, February 2, 2014 (UTC)

Added Modifiers, will add chance in half a mo, and change the result.

18:51, February 2, 2014 (UTC)

Given that Great Perm declared war and thus is an (L), can it be annexed too? Fed (talk) 02:18, February 3, 2014 (UTC)

While the rest of Epirus will become a vassal ruled by the doges relative appointed as governor general.

Kalmar and the UNC
In the first turn, Guns has taken a four year old personal union between three nations and turned it into a singular nation. I would not have a problem with it if I saw it as plausible, but currently I do not. After reading the conditions of his treaty to unite the three crowns of Norway, Denmark, and Sweden, as seen here:
 * The Kingdoms of Norway, Sweden, and Denmark, and all their holdings, shall be ruled by a single Crown;
 * Said Crown shall rule from the City of Copenhagen;
 * No Noble from any Kingdom shall be sufferred to lose land or life;
 * All Nobles shall send delegates to a Grand Council, which shall meet Annually, to check the power of the Crown;
 * All Kingdoms shall combine their carmies and navies into one;
 * All Kingdoms shall agree to unite their forces against any enemy, internal or external, that threatens this Union;
 * All Kingdoms shall agree to follow the Laws set by the Crown and by the Grand Council;
 * Upon the death or abdication of the Monarch, the Grand Council shall elect a new Monarch from amongest themselves;
 * The Grand Council may impeach the Monarch in extreme cases, and shall require a three quarters majority for this act;
 * The Crown Charter shall be renegotiated and reestablished every 25 years;
 * Thus Established, the United Norse Crown.

​I have determined that it appears implausible for the following reasons.

1. The Swedes were against the Danish superiority in the Kalmar, to the point that they openly rebelled and established their own leader of the Kalmar OTL in the 1430s.

2. The Danish nobility was against a singular crown authority.

3. It has been speculated that the Kalmar Union document was only a draft document and never ratified by "constiutional" bodies of the three kingdoms.

4. The treaty creating the United Norse Crown assumes Norway, Denmark, and Sweden wish for a "greater good", but however, most every ruler in this current age did not care for a greater good and would only look to expand their own power, not sacrifice it at the expense of creating something greater.

Let my clarify by saying that I am not against a plausible uniting of the Kalmar Union. I just see this first-turn unity in the ATL ignoring problems that affected the attempts at uniting the Kalmar OTL. I hope this can be discussed civilly Eiplec - ಠ_ಠ (talk) 02:31, February 3, 2014 (UTC)

I agree with Eip, and was actually thinking so myself. I was planning to have rebellions (which occured in OTL for something far less severe than this) break out all over the Kalmar Union eventually. I completely agree that this is implausible and should be removed. Mscoree (talk) 03:15, February 3, 2014 (UTC)

I do not think the idea of a unified state should be forgotten, but there are certainly some issues with this particular treaty, it takes years to merge nations for one. For instance. I, England plan on jointly merging with Scotland to form the United Kingdoms of Greater Albion. but it will take time. You need to set up a plausible chain of events leading toward the goal, for instance i need a new leader, which conviently in OTL actaully happened in 1413. in my case it will take almost 20 years in game before my union can be realized with some degree of plausibility. Of course the Kalmar Union is more organized than rivals Scotland and England, but the principle remains the same. It takes time.Bowties are Cool (talk) 05:03, February 3, 2014 (UTC)

Look, a said union and a true union are very different. Guns, here, has made a said union - something which happened in 1603 when the Scottish and English crowns came under one monarch. The union was only made into a true union with the Union Act of 1707!

Although the flag and stuff changed post-1603, and a joint navy was established - the true union only came about after a long time and a lot of work by the monarch.

Therefore, it is safe to presume Guns will work on this for atleast 5-8 decades before a true union legislature can be passed through his "parliament". Imp (Say Hi?!) 12:52, February 3, 2014 (UTC)

Wow, Eip. Almost NOTHING you said there was actually the case here. Congratulations.


 * 1) There IS no Danish Superiority, as all the Nobles are thrown into one "Grand Council", so the Swedish and Norwegian (who, note, also control Iceland) Nobles will easily outvote the Danish ones if they are actually united.
 * Oh, you mean that crown that has NO bearing on ANYTHING? Whose abilities are limited to asking the Council to consider something? Yes, wow. Real threat to authority there.
 * 1) And some historians also believe that Elvis was captured by aliens. General consensus is that they did.
 * 2) It is NOT one bloody nation. It is three. Notice how they are referred to as the "Three Kingdoms"? They share a monarch. That's what the UNC refers to. I just didn't want to make three seperate posts.
 * 3) In fact, these nations are even less united than OTL. Apart from a joint military and the fact that they pay lip service to the same- powerless, note- King, they share nothing in common. All civil affairs are dealt with by the Nobles in the area, and those bridging larger swathes of territory are dealt with by the Grand Council.

In conclusion; apart from the fact that I have been posting only once per turn, these are basically three nations. Under one monarch, and one Council. They can't declare war on each other, and they share a military.

Thank you for not metagaming in your own favor to get rid of a potential threat, Ms.

22:11, February 4, 2014 (UTC)

No problem Guns. Anyway, as I clarified on chat, these rebellions may or may not happen, depending on how you handle the situation. So good luck. Mscoree (talk) 14:18, February 6, 2014 (UTC)

HRE Casus Belli
I propose the following casus belli be added to the algorithm that are specific to the Holy Roman Empire. Feel free to discuss each one and how many points it should be below.


 * Aiding a prince under attack: 6


 * If a duchy is under attack by a foreign threat then the emperor can intervene to save them.
 * Revoke an Electorate:
 * War to remove a state's status as an elector.
 * Imperial Liberation:
 * War to free a duchy that was annexed by a foreign power and/or another member of the empire.
 * Enforce religion:
 * Forcefully convert a nation in the empire (does not work on electors, or past 1650)

Mscoree (talk) 13:37, February 3, 2014 (UTC)


 * I really think these are going to be used and abused if they are just for HRE, I think we've already had the discussion that the HRE is not buddies united OTL and so why would they be ATL, further why should the HRE get special preference for motives. The first one can come under assisting an ally, the second political hegemony, the third comes under Aiding Social/Moral/Ideological/Religious Kinsmen who are being oppressed or Taking territory of similar culture but not part of nation and the final one might also be the political hegemony although it might be worthwhile adding a motive for religious motives. Kunarian TALK 15:45, February 3, 2014 (UTC)


 * Many of these somewhat fall under pre-existing ones but I think it would add a sense of realism if the Holy Roman Empire had these region specific ones. In OTL the Holy Roman Empire had plenty of empire-specific motives that were used to justify wars within and around the empire, sometimes rooted in old law and other documents that wouldn't apply to ther nations. Mscoree (talk) 18:45, February 3, 2014 (UTC)


 * Then I want one for Venice. I get 9 points in Motive for Establishing/Enforcing/Defending Trade Monopoly. That would apply very strongly to Venice and not the HRE, I can has? and only for me and other trade republics of course. Kunarian TALK 12:23, February 4, 2014 (UTC)
 * Maybe not 9 (since that would be near life or death) but that definitely sounds like a fair addition. Mscoree (talk) 13:11, February 4, 2014 (UTC)

Venice should get its own special ones too. They are the only nation of their type currently in Europe, and should have more value given on trade. Not only this, they should also have it given for defence, as invading Venice in history was almost always suicide due to its naval strength and location but the algorithim does not represent that. Imp (Say Hi?!) 12:43, February 4, 2014 (UTC)


 * Motive: Venice +100000000, cannot be used by anyone other than Venice, can be used against mods. < I propose this format Kunarian TALK 22:25, February 4, 2014 (UTC)

Perhaps a few for the merchant republic government type in general. Also I believe Venice is one of the strategic points in the algorithm, which adds some points. Mscoree (talk) 13:10, February 4, 2014 (UTC)


 * Strategic points are a bit different to this. Adding bonuses to government types is always a bit iffy. Kunarian TALK 22:25, February 4, 2014 (UTC)

I don't see how ANY of these apply. They are all covered by existing motives. #1 is under "Aiding an Ally", #2 and #3 would probably be under "Political Hegemony", and for #4 I believe there is already a religious motive. 22:13, February 4, 2014 (UTC)

Oh, that sucks. Mr YOLO (talk) 20:24, February 3, 2014 (UTC)

I'm beginning to feel that I do something wrong. Because even if I let the war last 1000 years, it is still only ca. 4.1%. Any help?

I don 't think you are doing anything wrong.this is because the original result only yielded 4,2%.The quantity of years will limit the amount of land you take farther than that.No matter how many years you spend in the war, you won't get more than 4,2%.Your only way to get more territory is to go to war with them again.--Collie Kaltenbrunner (talk) 22:07, February 3, 2014 (UTC)

I think an algo is definitely needed.

19:25, February 5, 2014 (UTC)

Scan definitely needs an algo. You can't just vassalise states four turns from start without a war. Fed (talk) 03:40, February 6, 2014 (UTC)

It was an event that occurred in OTL, Dai Viet had just undergone a dynasty change with the Tran Dynasty forced to abdicate for the Ho dynasty in 1399/1400; then the Ming Dynasty invaded in this time period under the same pretext of reinstalling the Trans. Although in OTL they installed their own governor. If you all agree an algorithm is needed then I'll happily reverse the event. Scandinator (talk) 10:25, February 6, 2014 (UTC)

The war for Dai Viet never occurred until 1406, and the only reason for Ming intervention OTL was not because they wanted to help the Tran Dynasty, but because the Ho dynasty attacked a Ming convoy escorting a Tran pretender, who was killed in the attack. Eiplec - ಠ_ಠ (talk) 13:33, February 6, 2014 (UTC)

In this TL the Ming Emperor are more outward focused. The Yongle Emperor decided to help re-install the Tran Dynasty. Is it not possible without an algo? Either way, the fact that I would have some Tran loyalists helping and that the Ming population is huge basically results in a win for the Ming Dynasty with or without an algo. And lets see... other states that have vassalised without war... Naples... Hungary, Savoy, Saxony, Desmond, Mamluks, Timurids... Austria, Switzerland... hmmmmm Looks like a lot of algorithms to me... And honestly, out of all of these, The move on Dai Viet has an actual casus belli some of them. Scandinator (talk) 14:47, February 6, 2014 (UTC)

Some of those were direct mod events, and some were diplomatic, not by sieging a single city and defeating an entire country by doing that. But if everyone is doing it, by all means, continue. Eiplec - ಠ_ಠ (talk) 16:02, February 6, 2014 (UTC)

WOAH WOAH WOAH! I have noticed that the motive score on several of these algos are all wrong! You're supposed to AVERAGE the motives, not add them! What are you guys DOING?

23:55, February 4, 2014 (UTC)


 * Actually guns the only things that are averaged are the location and age when fighting as a coalition. Kunarian TALK 19:46, February 5, 2014 (UTC)

I'm putting this in the discussion section for the algorithm, and thank you bringing this to my attention. I will fix it. Mscoree (talk) 00:37, February 5, 2014 (UTC)

I'm not going to lie, this algo is probably needing some major rework...

It will need some major rework. It includes several things way out of order, including the reasons (there's frankly no oppression by the Poles in Muscowy, and Muscowy is using a defensive cassus belli while it's attacking), the adding up (participation and reasons, as Guns has said before), the location (you can't possibly tell me that Trier is next to Ruthenia, the location of the war), the fact that the HRE has a COORDINATION BONUS (that's just ludicruous), and many others. Fed (talk) 01:50, February 5, 2014 (UTC)

For the location, I noticed that you said the distance between the Golden Horde and Muscovy was a 15, at 3,808.68 mi. Therefore I thought places like Vienna, at 345.17 miles, and Trier, at 646.52 mi, would be a 20. Mscoree (talk) 02:16, February 5, 2014 (UTC)

... Did you measure it from the farthest edge of the Horde? Saray is 971.5 kilometres (603.662 in your ridiculous measuring system) and, furthermore, the Horde has a border with Muscowy, something which Cleves does not. Fed (talk) 12:09, February 5, 2014 (UTC)

There is the minor problem that Trier can't really be a leader.

So I get 20% of a city. Umm.

23:11, February 4, 2014 (UTC)

Can I "vassalize" them?

23:15, February 4, 2014 (UTC)

How does one take 20% of a city?

Exactly. So can I suggest this? I "vassalize" you, meaning you can continue doing your own thing, except during wars you'll aid us, and you'll pay some basic Lip Service to the Crown. Who has no real power. Idk.

23:20, February 4, 2014 (UTC)

Counter-proposal: I give you money for a few years (until 1413? 1418?) and remain neutral in wars you're involved in?

Umm... Well, if that money counted as Supplies in wars, and helps me take down the Hanseatic league... but not just 10 years. 1450.

23:27, February 4, 2014 (UTC)

Not war supplies, just plain cash(?).

Not war supplies; I mean, as in hard cash- which is used to buy supplies. Basically, in the algo, would be counted as supplies.

So till 1450.

Look out Hansa, here we come.

Guns on coalition algorithms it appears you are supposed to multiply the number of leaders by ten. That is what you did for yours against Muscovy. Mscoree (talk) 13:30, February 5, 2014 (UTC)


 * Have to agree here. It's +10 for every leader when concerning coalitions because they are considered nations that are actually involved in the fighting. Kunarian TALK 19:48, February 5, 2014 (UTC)

Von
It's been five days and Von hasn't posted yet. I think we need to take him off of the list of mods. Would it be presumptuous of myself to nominate myself to fill the resulting seat in the Mods?--Yank 22:34, February 5, 2014 (UTC)

Von is kind-of mod-emeritus anyway. Thoughts everyone? Commandante Lemming (talk) 22:41, February 5, 2014 (UTC)

It was pretty much well established at the time of the moderator selections that Von would be inactive, but has a sort of honorary position. Therefore I don't think it's really a matter or replacing him, although if you would like to nominate yourself we can give you a proper election just like everyone else. Mscoree (talk) 22:46, February 5, 2014 (UTC)

I think that we've established, though that the number of mods will not change. Why don't we just make a mods-emiritus section, and dump Von, Cosman, and Kenny there- along with all the others? Then we might be able to nominate some more active moderators, such as Yank and Impo.

Still up to change not everythings done yet ill have it all finished by the end of tonight hopefully.

This algo system is seriously weird '''

'''This algo will be only edited by mods from now. For both of you Rex and feud. Sine dei gloriem &#34;Ex Initio Terrae&#34; (talk)'''

Just to clarify, I never once editted the algo. I simply posted a suggestion, now removed by Feud, as to what I felt the algo should read, in the Discussion section. This is a practice that is established and accepted in the form of posting suggestions, however I felt the whol algo was so messed up that I would provide an alternative, or a new starting point, so to speak. 05:58, February 6, 2014 (UTC) 

To be honest very few people, inlcuding mods know how to do the algorithm. Especially coalition. For instance, Nations involved is not an average, and neither is motive. The only averages are Location and Nation age. Bonuses such as high ground can only be earned if 75% of the coalition can get it and such.

All in all the algorithm in the rules isn't the algorithm most people end up using. And too many people seem to be ready to try and make up rules on the fly. Kunarian TALK 06:56, February 6, 2014 (UTC)

Participation
Ok, though, seriously, let's get a ruling here on this.

If you look at the algos from PMII, ALL OF THEM give a FLAT participation score.

The number of nations on each side is covered in the nations section.

I am aware, yes, that the Lithaunian war on Muscovy was done erroneously as a result of this, and I apologize for that, because had I noticed it, I would have corrected it. Alas, I did not.

Can I have a senior mod rule on this? *Ahem* Collie?

22:08, February 6, 2014 (UTC)

Considering the number of algorithms messed up as a result of this, perhaps it would be better to apply your rule from now on. Mscoree (talk) 22:23, February 6, 2014 (UTC)

Furthermore, we have the problem that is being addressed (mostly in chat) about the *3 bonus applied to the coalitions. I think this is nothing but a wholesale corruption of our algo system.

Even in the rules, the Coalition algorithim rules state that a multiplier is only applied if 3/4 of the warring states have the bonus applied to them. Therefore, I find the *3 to be contrary to this rule. 23:03, February 6, 2014 (UTC)

@Ms so according to that argument, since there has been one murder, all murders hsould be allowed? No. We should leave it in past algos, but fix it in the future.

@Rex Why is that difficult to understand? In chat only you had a problem with this. Because there are THREE LEADERS, all of whom have the *1.25, you must multiply it by 3.

23:10, February 6, 2014 (UTC)

I meant, from now on we should apply the rule you proposed of only adding +10 for participation. Mscoree (talk) 23:22, February 6, 2014 (UTC)

Ahh, well, Impo, don't feel too bad, even if you are #4EVARALONE.

I got vassals and a state in PU? :P  Imp (Say Hi?!) 23:47, February 6, 2014 (UTC)

I think you'd acually be higher without them, whatevs, you can add those. 23:59, February 6, 2014 (UTC)

Dear mom,

I've just started my first map game as Bosnia. It's alright, I've been opening trade routes and making friends in Italy. And now I'm dead and everything I worked for is on fire.

Cool. Welcome to PMIII. Choose another nation if you wish to play on - perhaps in an isolated spot this time. Imp (Say Hi?!) 17:29, February 7, 2014 (UTC)

Colors
Some of them are really similar. Strong feeling people will get the wrong idea about what they control. Also I'd like to know why some random nation in Central Asia has the color which I requested.

00:16, February 7, 2014 (UTC)

I wanna know why I didn't get the colour I requested! :(  Imp (Say Hi?!) 00:17, February 7, 2014 (UTC)

That is the color Hungary had in PM.

00:19, February 7, 2014 (UTC)


 * No, its not. The colour it had is on the map I posted above. The colour on the main map is different! -.- [[Image:1.png|23px]] Imp (Say Hi?!) 00:23, February 7, 2014 (UTC)
 * I can confirm.i had to see this color for 18 months, to the point that was already tired of that color by the time that PMI ended, and the color on the map is not the one of PMI.--Collie Kaltenbrunner (talk) 10:02, February 7, 2014 (UTC)

I was under the impression I was getting golden poppy, not some sort of dull brown. Mscoree (talk) 00:48, February 7, 2014 (UTC)

I would say you need to add Venice in however its pretty clear that the 34% required will be reached with Venice's help. I've stated what Venice would want on the main page, which is just the Genoan vassal of Kaffa, the bit far off in the black sea, european lands I'm not interested in really.

Hey, im only going to war with Savoy. Im dening Naples troops movement through my territory. What's wrong with that? Add me in the algo for Genoa. Spartian300 (talk) 15:35, February 7, 2014 (UTC)

Spartian, if go to war and become leader, you will have to fight the entire coalition, not just Savoy, and if you do, Venice and Bizantine Empire may join; but is up to you. Quashi (talk) 18:14, February 7, 2014 (UTC)

He will have to fight the entire coalition but I will not accept him losing anything but minor sections of land and I will not be partaking in any taking of land from the Papal States. Kunarian TALK 18:26, February 7, 2014 (UTC)

Removal of turn
Could I remove my turn (Ragusan one) since I didn't know that Genoa wasn't. I just joined and screwed up my whole game in one turn. SkyGreen24 (talk) 19:06, February 7, 2014 (UTC)

After thinking it through I realise that this is probably a bad idea since I should have read the older turns. Therefore I believe that I must face the consequences of that and admit defeat.

Treaty of Fez
This is a treaty dealing with the end of hostilities between Algieria, Tunisia, and Castile and her allies the terms are as follows Signatures: 
 * 1) Morocco will be split into a larger Castilian Gibraltar Settlement, Larger Granadan Settlement, and the creation of the Vassal states of Morocco and Fez.
 * 2) The North African alliance remaining between Algeria and Tunisia shall be Disbanded.
 * 3) Algeria is to allow Castilian and Castilian allied merchants and Castilian tradeing posts on the Coast hence establishign a Trade Agreement among other things.
 * 4) Castile and her allies will pay out to Algeria and Tunisia for any destroyed supplies or equipment hence reimbursing their investment into Morocco
 * 5) Respect for all Christians in Algeria and Tunisia is to be implemented. Otherwise any christians that wish to immigrate are to be granted safe passage to Morocco, or Castile.

Castile:

Venetia:

Naples

Algiers: Algiers agrees to the aformentioned terms.(MOD RESPONSE)

'Tunisia: Tunisia agrees to the aformentioned terms.(MOD RESPONSE)

'''Btw Tunisia (Carthage) is currently under Aragonese influence. However, I, Scraw the Great, acknowledge this treaty as it disbaned Carthaginian relations with Castilian vassals. In the name of peace and sanity.'''

'''You cant influence nations of a differing religion. its just a region of interests. if anything i made it easier for you to take Tunisia. '''

I want Algeria and Tunisia to both grant Venice complete trade rights, further Venice will not pay for any destroyed supplies as we've lost enough with this war anyways. Kunarian TALK 08:34, February 8, 2014 (UTC)
