i do truly enjoy losing all of my ships in the unknown seas, then get 7 revolts in a far away colony with zero way to get troops over there. fun. its especially fun that it takes 5 ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ millennia to get a competent navy back, especially as the French because the English WILL ♥♥♥♥ my arse over if i dont have a navy of like 30 ♥♥♥♥♥♥ ships Edit: After playing for a... MUCH longer (another XCIX hours on Deaths and Taxes ontop of the XCIX hours here) I thought I'd remake this review to reflect what I think now. It's generally pretty good, the colonisation system genuinely sucks though. That isn't unique to EUII unfortunately but it is annoying. The HRE is... annoying, too. It makes it insanely hard to expand eastwards (or south) as any non-HRE member, especially as Sweden, France, and Denmark without getting half of the empire on your arse because you dared to attack Alsace and Lorraine so you could have France's modern borders. Even then, expanding into the lowlands is beyond annoying since they, too, are in the HRE. Defender of the faith system is pretty annoying too. Makes it... hard to expand into an area that isn't your religion when you aren't already a relatively capable nation. It makes sense for Sunni nations, since typically they'll have worse tech (Morroco, Tunisia, most of North Africa besides the Mamluks) and lower forts, making it easy to conquer them, but for Christian countries? It's just... annoying. If I dare to want to try and, I don't know, expand into Lithuania as Muscowy? Well now I have the defender of the faith (which, annoyingly, usually happens to be a great power) on me as well. It's a cool mechanic, but it's still annoying. Naval attrition is kind of annoying as well, but I do think it's necessary to prevent you from just... sending a ship all the way to India the second you unlock colonisation with zero issue. Same with Colonial range limits. Still, really good game, would recommend to anyone who likes RTS history games.
