For Catholic factions, is there a way to destroy the Papacy?
Are the factions able to convert to another religion? (e.g. Turks becoming Christian)
Does the diplomacy work now or are the diplomats still suffering from Alzheimer's disease?
Are naval battles still a bit random or have they become more clear?
Is it easy to get as huge incomes as in RTW.

Thanks in advance
While I do not have the game yet, I can tell you right now that:

The papacy is invincible; it cannot be eliminated

and

There are many new diplomacy options supposedly (like how faction feels about you), so it should be a little better
