The only Paradox game that I more or less understand. The only Paradox game that I've completed a full campaign of. I took Judea from a kingdom on the brink of death and destruction to an Empire that spanned from Soqrato in the South to Carthago in the North to Damascus in the east. It was glorious. And I've done it three times.

That should tell you all you need to know.

I recommend the invicta mod and also better UI 2.0
