Paradox Grand Strategies
I like both Europa Universalis 3 AND Crusader kings, and cannot decide which is better. Europa certainly has a much easier military, in which you decide what units are to be made and can field armies as long as you have the man power, but i think the Crusader kings just has a more atmospheric feel to the game. War is harder too in Crusader kings, specially if your playing as a minor nation (going from just Leinster to uniting ALL of Ireland and with holding a british invasion takes years of in game time!)
Now the thing i like about Crusader kings though is the fact that you have dynasties. In my Leinster game, as I re-unified Ireland under my flag, by the time I was King, the wars had taken the lives of 2 other kings! The original one died in battle, the next one was assassinated by one of my own nobles, and in the end, a 12 year old was left running the ENTIRE country, which was just a lightly patched framework of vassals. And to make things worse, we were drawn into a war with England who insisted on taking the Isle of Man. Many a Irish lad died in defense of the Island, and eventually it was the french that saved us from the british. Weeee Though in EU3, I feel more like im leading a country! As england, I successfully led an invasion of Munster and Brittany while fighting the French off. In the end i gained 3 provinces in Brittany, Annexed munster, and only lost the province of Gascogne to the French, all with minimal casualties. To make things better, a few years have passed and I am mending my relations with the French so they won't attack my other provinces. Being king is good. BUT now I wanna hear from you. What are your favorite paradox games? Despite the fact they're pretty much all the exact same
