in fact, the Pacta conventa was something of an election promise. Before being elected, each king gave the nobility a plan for what they would do if they were elected king. For example, the first elected king said he would expand the Polish fleet. „Artykuły Henrykowskie” was a document which every kings must have signed and It basically confirmed all previous privileges

[@miguelpadeiro762]

The locked mission feature is great, I hope it is added with other existing fitting mission trees such as Castille and Brandenburg It's also great that PDX is taking inspiration from mods such as ante bellum with the "if x mission is completed whilst y is true, you get more bonuses"

Oh wow, Poland seems like a tonne of fun. If the AI can pull this off Russia is going to be a lot harder to get as a big blob now lmao. Pretty much all eastern europe and ottomans dead in 40 years. Also unlike in if you achieved the same in current patch it's much stronger because of higher AI competence meaning PUs and subjects galore are incredibly worthwhile. Hopefully the devs tweak teuton mission tree so that it's quite unlikely for Danzig confederation to not form when teutons are AI controlled. + 38:31, Although from a gameplay perspective It's not ideal the fact Byzantium's name can now be changed to Latin empire could make for an interesting - undoubtedly hard - campaign to try and get the name via poland and then annex -> release as them and try and make a nice Latin Empire.

[@ShayPatrickCormacTHEHUNTER]

The way the morale was lost due to the 50% morale damage is how it should be in vanilla non Poland plays. In the real world, morale is dynamic. A battle going awry in the start, damages morale further down the line. In other words, morale is like domino. Whoever looses initially, will loose the battle. Unless there is very high discipline such as 125-150%, only then should morale work like in vanilla.
