I did consider retroactively amending the Spain ranking to reflect this development, but it wasn't the only path affected by this. The Falangist and Second Republic paths' attack buffs were also broken. I'm not sure it would've changed any of their positions on the ranking, since there were other factors that caused them to be placed where they were. But we'll never know, as we didn't know then.

18:55 It's rather frustrating that while you can form the Kingdom of Franco-Spain AS Spain, you specifically need France to have gone down the Carlist path to do so, unlike France, which simply requires you to have Spain as a puppet.

It was broken because the spirit used the modifiers offence / defence which didn't work, they got switched to army_attack_factor / army_defence_factor.

7:45, I don't think you should do "Confirm the Fueros" until you control all of the autonomous regions of Spain.

10:11 I’ll say it: There is practically no useful difference between the two. Stability bonuses only help in rare situations and consumer goods are just as useful (if not worse given focuses LOVE to give consumer goods bonuses). Both features are so watered down that you should really just go with whoever you think looks cooler or deserves it more.
@3dcomrade2 ай бұрын
Stability is more useful. Consumer goods bonusee only reduces the factor demanded. With each successive bonuses reducing less and less consumer goods
@Dedelblute32 ай бұрын
@@3dcomrade I should’ve said why each bonus is basically worthless. All consumer goods bonuses are made irrelevant by Total Mobilization (and Women in the workforce), and the various methods of gaining base stability usually render things that give you stability pretty much worthless. Neither bonus has anything unique and useful enough to merit picking him over the other. But in this situation, Xavier has the cooler portrait so I’d go with him anyways.
