Hi, I just wanted to stop by and share the link for my new guide on Sweden. I see that the first guide I wrote is already linked here.

i think that the idea of regional minor guides is the best suggestion here. we could have:

Indian Minors:

Mughals
Mysore

American Minors:

Cherokee
Iroqious
Pirates
New Spain
New France
13 Colonies
Louisiana
Inuits
Plains Nations
Pueblo Nations

European would be done differently. it would have regions in it like so:

West/Central European Regions:

Italy(Italian States, Venice, Genoa, Knights of St. John)

West Europe(Hannover, Portugal, Savoy, Saxony, Westphalia)

North East Europe(Denmark, Courland, Bavaria)

North Africa(Morocco, Barbary States)

Middle East(Persia, Crimean Khanate, Dagestan, Georgia)

I am sure that there may be more for each, but I cannot get on right now. I did not include emergent factions because they are as of yet unplayable.

With all the various changes made to the game, it wouldn't be a bad idea to start over.

None of the factions play the way they did in 1.1 when this was set up and the various threats have changed considerably. The difficulty levels now make a big difference in how you approach playing a faction now as well.

Indeed that's true, and the heavy handed update approach almost ensures that people are playing the newest release. If such a suggestion had been made before 1.4 I might've suggested to "wait until the AI's being worked on", but it apparently is, so here we are!

I'm hesitant to outright scrap the posts, but maybe an archive sub-forum set aside for 1.0-1.4 strategies with a fresh set of threads for post 1.5?

That is Great Work, Monk.

This should give new players a clearer picture of what they are up against.

If I may be so bold as to make one further suggestion...

A spot for General Guides for Diplomacy, Economics & Trade, and Basic tactics for Land & Naval Combat that apply to most or all factions.

I made a shot guide to starting diplomacy that might help some people, https://forums.totalwar.org/vb/showthread.php?t=122279,
if you think it is good enough for the guides section.

It will be hard enough to find in Parliament in a few days and we have too much stickyed already.

really? it would've been more productive to post this.....in its own thread. not necro an old thread with something completely off-topic.
