Hi all, check for the mod called Epopeia.
It is updated for domination with all the new mechanics.

will you update this for 1.35? with all the new stuff it would be so awesome!

When will you update it to 1.34?

- Victorum adds a lot of provinces everywhere Portugal has a vestted interest, so greatly benefits Portugal, and the mission tree seems to work well, but I would suggest changing the Arguin modifiers and missions to not affect the Arguin province - which in the mod is just a strip of desert land - and instead benefit the province with the trading post below Arguin, which more nicely fits Portugal's "small african outposts for trade" experience; it also adds the Palacio da Pena to Lisbon to upgrade along the game and the Escola de Sagres wonder to Lagos (western half of Algarve), with a very cool buff.
Thank you for your work!

Hey! Great mod, and I think all the suggestions on the previous comment are good, although I think focusing on a) and d) would be better for now (at least it is what appeals to me more).
There are two mods out there, Pax Solis and Victorum Universalis, which could greatly benefit the Portuguese experience this mod offers:
- Pax Solis hads a lot of provinces in Africa and China/Japan and works pretty well with this mod but the modified UI bugs the mission tree so that many new missions end up missing; it also adds two wonders to Lisbon that work really nicely too;

Hey fellow colonizers and subscribers,
I hope you all enjoy the latest update and give the mod another try.

A quick poll what you would like to see most:

a) Great projects (requires Leviathan DLC) for Casa da India, Elmina, Goa, ... (also tell me which)
b) More conquest (claims and encouragement for map painting)
c) New game mechanics (naval maintenance is already under investigation)
d) Integrated Government and reforms (currently I recmmend to use Governments Expanded)

I appreciate all subscriptions and answers!

Pls update :)

Thank you very much Excel and by the way have you ever thought of adding claims in the Aden region, the Suez and then perhaps Jerusalem? It would be interesting as it was one of the attempted expansion paths of Portugal it sadly didnt work.....haha

Hello Drecas, feel free to use the mod's ideas and content for your project
Best of luck for your mod and let me know in the comments whenever there is something. I believe there are many people interested in new content for Portugal and hope you will be sharing your mod here in the workshop.
I was especially happy with the icons and pictures and would love to see them reused.

Hello Im thinking of making a mod for Portugal aswell and since your mod is the best one for Portugal I was wandering if I could use some of your ideas for my mod. I still dont know if I wil post the mod I want to make on Steam(If I even can do it) but if I do I will obviously credit you. Anywas a good day and thank you for your attention and your great mod.

really love the mod, makes playing as Portugal more enganging, thank you for updating, means alot. Ill happily award it

Impressive, very nice. Let's see Spain flavour now

Super thrilled to see this mod come back! Always made Portugal a more engaging playthrough. Thanks for the hard work!

After a long time (mostly used complaining about the content of Golden Century DLC), I decided to go ahead, buy the thing and port may changes to the GC mod tree, hopefully making your GC purchase a better bang-for-the-buck enjoying a brand new Portugal playthrough.

The status is "beta" as I only had one test run (with idea variation & expanded trade goods, ages, lavour and monuments).

Please let me know if you encounter any bugs and I'll try to make everything work.

It's time for an

Can this mod please get an update it is very fun. Right now the mission are broken in then current build?

@jardin and anyone else trying to use this mod after the 1.30.x update instructions how to make the mode compatible for other versions can be found
here:

https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=618820094

But to repeat what Walmart Janitor said:

go to

Documents\Paradox Interactive\Europa Universalis IV\mod

Open the mod file you wish with some text editor, such as Notepad (you might need to right-click and use Open with...).

Where it reads

supported_version="1.29.*"

replace the version in quotes by whatever you want (ex.: 1.30.*).

I just tried it out and worked fine for me, hope it patches your games up until there's an official update. :)

Hello, this mod is no longer working, are you going to update it?

Happy to hear this. Have fun!

@Excel Foley Thanks for the reply, It must have been something on my end, I disabled some other stuff I had and rebooted and it works fine now. :)

Can you describe the incompatibility? Maybe it can be fixed easily.

Is the mod being updated for 1.30? I tried booting it up for 1.29.6 and it seems to have some imcompatibility.

I've got a warning that says "Something looks wrong with the downloaded files. Please contact the author of this mod." When I try to enable the mod, this warning prevents me from activating it. Any advice? Thanks for creating this by the way!

Adorei o mod está brutal!

That did the trick! Thank you very much!

@Carpe Verpa: Please try again with the new version :)

So quick bug update: Having Golden Century active seems to give the player both the Golden Century mission tree and your mission tree.

Thank you for reviving this! I love this mod, so it's good to see you've bee working on it again.

Update?

Any prediction of update?

I can't give my mod a rediculous buff and call it "flavorful experience"
That's a bit lazy imo.

@Excel Foley, balance is balance. Being OP just makes the game easy and boring. More balance would make the end result of a Portuguese Mercantile/Colonial Empire feel more rewarding and the player more proud.
This is basically hard-coded cheats.
I did not talk about min-maxing or MP.

Well fucking said

I'm looking forward to PDXs next moves with this DLC and EUIV as a whole with it's currently broken mechanics. If there will be meaningful changes to the game I won't mind spending 10 bucks every now and than for good additional content. The mod will then be updated again (not at last for my own interest roleplaying Portugal again).

@Big Boss, @Jvoss123v, ...
There were some concerns that the mod in the current state is unbalanced and makes Portugal "OP". A few thoughts of mine: I agree that if you are optimizing/abusing/minmaxing the given bonuses this is indeed the case (tried this with PDX Great Britain, Ming or Mughal lately? :D). But this mod is intendend to enable a flavourful roleplay Portugal experience rather than balancing a MP match. This effect is sadly intensified by the new (Dharma-DLC) Trade Company mechanics which will always result in a very broken experience for all nations (rush for Trade Company -> ignore state limit while drowning in money and even get bonuses to everything). Don't get me wrong, I'm more than willing to change all aspects of the mod if there is specific critic for some aspects, but keep in mind that my main idea is to enable a rich Portuguese oversea empire without great expansion on the European continent or conquering all of africa.

Quick Update: I didn't buy Golden Century over Christmas, because I'm very disappointed by PDX new "DLC strategy". Since their official opinion is "... that reviews weigh ounces while sales weigh pounds." (Dev-Diary 18.12.2018) I want to get another pound on the scale. I'm quite frankly surprised that PDX doesn't seem to notice that a fair share of customers did buy the last DLCs to support the company (regardless of doubts over pricing to content ratio) with the hope that there would be improvements in quality, quantity and balancing in future projects (due to the feedback over various channels).

I tested the current state of the mod briefly with the (no Golden Century DLC) 1.28 version of the game and there were no obvious issues present. Maybe someone has done some in depth testing and can give some feedback or point out some bugs? The PDX Portugal mission tree should be overwritten in the DLC version I guess?! So if one really wants to use this mod it should be fine.

This is a wonderful project and i fully support it, however it is unbalanced. Please consider balancing it.

Understood, many thanks from Portugal!

@Jvoss123v: The most recent version was provided to the Missions Expanded mod and should be integrated. I didn't test it myself though. May you can give us some insights.
@SergeantAtom: At the moment I do not have the new DLC and didn't look into the changes PDX made. Since the vanilla mission tree was reworked it could be some work to make everything smooth again. Maybe a project for Christmas days.

@Jvoss123v Portugal was OP IRL, change my mind

We getting an update for the new patch?

Is the latest version of this mod in the Missions Expanded ?
If not , will it work if I use both mods ?

Also, could you tone down how OP Portugal is...

You think it's possible to make your mod compatible with BT?

op lol not fun

@Poka-chan: Not iron man compatible, since it changes non-visual things.

its compatible with iron man?

And having mission that give you penalties is a bad idea, missions are supposed to be an incentive to achieve some goal, by having penalties on them they become more like "decisions" and that is a problem because it railroads the player with severe buffs in some aspects (trade mostly) and severe nerfs on others (tax mostly) and the player might not want to follow that particular path.
