Since Wester announced he would be stepping away as CEO (while remaining at Paradox as Executive Chairman) around this time last year, the transition was slow and steady, with Ljungerud officially taking the reins in August 2018.
But she has been determined to win fans over. During a talk at DICE Summit last month, she cited her background with online gambling as a sticking point in the widespread hesitance. When Ebba Ljungerud stepped in to fill in the shoes of longtime Paradox CEO Fredrik Wester, hardcore fans of Paradox Interactive were apprehensive, despite her position as a board member there for four years. Some content, such as this article, has been migrated to VG247 for posterity after USgamer's closure - but it has not been edited or further vetted by the VG247 team. This affects all countries following the given religion (which can include your own), and can cause opponent's omens to backfire.This article first appeared on USgamer, a partner publication of VG247. If a country has a religion different from your own, you can send an agent to ruin their holy site, and damage their religious power. In the diplomatic interface, you can disrupt opponent's religions. Spices improve the religious prestige of a province controlling them, or trading for them. Temples in a province that do not match your state's religion provide you with no benefit, and instead help other nations that have that religion. If you construct them in your provinces that follow your state religion, it will increase the religious prestige, and therefore increase religious power as well. One of the first buildings is the Temple. However, a large population tends to be harder to convert. A ruler with religious traits regarding moral behaviour also helps, and theocratic governments also speed up the process. For the fastest conversion, find a governor with a Charisma of 7 (minimum 4 required), set a trade route from one of your most civilized provinces, and have a High priest with a finesse of 4 or more. You need not worry about Finesse for these governors, instead reserving them for the more valuable provinces. It is possible to change the culture of a province if you place a popular and high-charisma governor in the province. Provinces that match the state religion provide bonuses to tax revenue, while a mismatched religion (as well as culture) provides a penalty (along with other problems that make them problematic). Religion determines which inventions you will discover in the technology tree. Those within the same religious group tend to have relation bonuses with each other, wile religious differences tend to cause strife. There are ten religions, organized under four groups: If there is no omen declared for a longer period of time, the high priest will declare one for you, with a good or bad one being based on the loyalty of the high priest. However, this may be necessary if you have a low chance of omen success, or if you want to hold the omen for later. Not performing an omen will increase the power of the populist faction. The last omen for ruler popularity can be used if the ruler risks being ousted from his position or is suffering from opposition from their own senate. The omen for reducing revolt risk is useful if you have many provinces that aren't stable (whether it's due to anger from taxes or if you suffer from negative stability). Defensiveness is only useful when at war or if you're being attacked. When in peace, you will want to use economy boosting omens, such as trade income (if you're low on gold), research points (for long-term benefit) or Population Growth (if attempting to push colonies).ĭuring wartime, boosting morale helps your soldiers last longer during battle, while discipline improves the damage they can perform. Omens last for 1 year, at which point they need to be performed again. Additionally, the omen is affected by the religious power, which may make it either more or less effective than the base values. If it's unfavorable, you may want to pick an omen that's unlikely to have an impact on your country. Each omen has a specific chance of success, providing a bonus if it is successful.īefore deciding on the omen, you will want to look at the religious power and the omen success chance. One summary sentence at the bottom suggesting what to do.
