Glad I helped :)

there were some parts that were confusin but other than that, tysmm <3
HowAboutSteak  [author] 8 Oct @ 3:43am 
Hmm that's strange, did you get "the law giver" at least?
Alarez 8 Oct @ 2:31am 
Yes I did. I followed guide step by step
HowAboutSteak  [author] 8 Oct @ 1:15am 
Did you take control of RRG?
Alarez 7 Oct @ 12:53pm 
So i'm not sure how updated it is, i followed literally step by step and ended with +33 budgets (+64 -31) and +27 autority (+32 -5). of course some steps from game were missed, but yea. that's how it went
HowAboutSteak  [author] 2 Sep @ 5:10am 
Yea that's totally fine, keep us updated.
Oloroaldy 1 Sep @ 11:17pm 
I played again on normal and the problem was that I hadn't taken Rusty's big loan. With Rusty's money those break points are smoothed over so if it's not too much of a pain maybe specify that we should do that

However, on Turn 6 I now have a bit of weirdness because I never got the print scandal event so I didn't fine them which meant I didn't have enough money to do the housing for the poor initiative. And I couldn't do the third medium energy sale mentioned right after that because I only have two energy. So I'm pressing forward from there but I am a bit concerned if that will screw something up for me later.

Also gave full rights to Wehzek citizens which idk if I was supposed to do or not.

Hey Oloroaldy, Thanks for the comment, this run was played on normal difficulty on the latest patch, could you please double check if you have missed something on turn 1? hopefully they haven't added any patches to the game, This run was made on 1st of August, I hope they haven't changed anything in the game.
Oloroaldy 30 Aug @ 3:39pm 
Keeps breaking early on.

I had a problem where Sovereign Transition and Clemency disappeared on me at end of turn 2, not sure if it happened after the Duke cornered me after the inheritance tax thing or what, doing it earlier worked.

After that realized I was short 1 budget, couldn't do Geo Survey or else if I did all the decrees at the start then the Morella donation option never showed up due to only having 1 budget left instead of 2

I kept on but next turn I was short of the money to launch crown supreme campaign but also short on authority to launch crownland privitization so I guess the order you take decrees is important and different than here.

For next time, did you do some other stuff to get money in the early game? I refused the loan from Rusty since I took the not saying anything about it as don't do it and was playing on normal. Should I play it on easy and/or take the loan from Rusty or how did you get the necessary money
