@nimic still struggling with the importance of prestige. I've dropped from 99 to 42. Has something gone very wrong in my empire, or nothing to be concerned about?

It comes mostly from winning battles and winning wars. Bigger prestige gets you some benefits.
When you are at peace and doing nothing, prestige slightly goes down every month.
In a big and long war you can build prestige on 100. I guess you did that and then your ruler decided to chill and go whoring with my ruler

Yeah basically what Andy said. 42 isn't bad, you're not going to stay at 99 at this stage of the game unless you're crushing everything. It trends towards 0 by default.
 
What’s the end game? A specific year? Or when the whole world is a veeva eutopia?
 
Why haven't we taken crackers yet, Solius and RS? What's the holdup?
 
When are me and @Shakesey getting it on? Feel like I've missed an opportunity somewhat with his massive army expansion.

Would be a good fight! I've got to at least give it a go for almost full control of the Mediterranean
 
@Dan just tripled in size, and suddenly it's Brandenburg which is a single province.

We should get together and take down WAPR.
 
I'm a parasite and I love it. Colonialism gives me a chance at new life elsewhere that isn't right next to the most dominant civ
 
If @Solius wants to end @Crackers, he'll now have to go through Organic Potatoes.

@Solius saw this and shrugged. I think @Shakesey may regret sending 60k men into Africa. He's about to be very invaded.

@Crackers might be the next to go, but I've said that six or seven times already. I think the more pressing question is if @RedSky will actually get anything out of it for once.

Oh yeah, and the Age of Reformation is here. The actual reformation hasn't arrived yet, but it's oh so very close. If the Holy Roman Empire splits in religion, we might get ourselves a Thirty Year War to settle it.

I think we know the answer to that...

The grand old duke of Midi, he had 10 thousand men, he marched them off for a pint and he got feck all in spoils again.
