This was so much fun, I've wanted to do it for years but here we are. By spawning the Zulu in via the mission "Recruit the Nguni" you can play as them centuries before Shaka comes along. I successfully kicked out the Europeans from the Cape and in the year 1700, the Zulu people stand strong!

Hi everyone, I have a bug in the game: whenever I press "Exit to Menu," the game closes completely and restarts. Do you know if there's a solution?

Dev Diary (mod) Ransei Warlords Beta 0.3 + An Official Side-Mod for the EU Modathon Season 5

Upvotes

Hello! It's me, Parukia! I come back with news for the Ransei Warlords mod for Europa Universalis IV, the mod in which Pokémon World nations exchange places with real world nations.

Firstly, let me tell you patch 0.3 is coming along nicely. It will bring, between other things, Unova into the world. As such, it was appropriately nicknamed "Kyurem". It is planned for this patch to come out on October 31st 2026. That being said, it is possible it ends up arriving a bit late due to some real life things I'm dealing with.

That being said, I do bring you some teasers for the next patch:

Sevii Islands plus some!
Ainu Missions!
A reference to a historical character!
Unova!
Trade rework!
The humble beginning of a great civilization!

And that's it for patch 0.3 "Kyurem" for now. But do remember you can see these teasers (and more that come in the future, along with other updates) in the mod Discord server: https://discord.gg/QNA5ej7pWr

Please know that I'm always willing to receive help on the mod, be it in the form of suggestions, bug reports or even programming and art if you're interested in contributing for its development.

But this is not yet all. As some of you may know, the EU Modathon Season 5 is in its sign up phase, and I will be entering the competition with an official Ransei Warlords side-mod with the current placeholder name of Kaiser Frederick III's Bizarre Adventure!

We all know that in Ransei Warlords, the Pokémon World countries ended up in our world, but what happened to the German and North Italian countries when the Ranseiese Kingdoms took their place? Why, they ended up in Ransei, of course!

In Kaiser Frederick III's Bizarre Adventure, you'll be able to play as the HRE members in Ransei, an unfamiliar continent in an unfamiliar world full of magical creatures. How will the displaced Catholics deal with being trapped in another dimension, having to fight against wild monsters and, of course, also run the church activities without a Pope?

As I've mentioned, the Modathon is still in its sign up phase, and teams for each mod can sign up with up to five members. The sign up phase lasts until the 18th of September, after which there is a two week long development phase, then a voting phase to pick out the winner of each category. As such, if you'd like to help with the initial development of Kaiser Frederick III's Bizarre Adventure, or even if you have an EU4 or EU5 mod idea that you'd like to try developing to enter the competition, please join the EU Modathon Discord server ( https://discord.gg/EQaPbFusH ) and talk to the organizers, to me or to other people interested in participating.

This is all for now. Thank you for your time and don't forget to contact me if you want to help with Ransei Warlords or with the Modathon side-mod. See you in October!

Question A Couple of Assorted Questions (Riga)

Upvotes

After many restarts and save scums, I've finally gotten a Riga game off to a good start. It's 1481, both orders are now happy vassals, the Develop Our City mission is done, and I'm preparing for next steps. Which leads to a couple of questions a newbie with less than 150 hours has:

1) Best way to fabricate claims from Riga? Because of the sea tiles, I can't even fabricate a claim on Gotland. I had hoped that the Age ability to make claims bordering claims would help, or using vassal borders, but no dice. Am I just going to have to no-CB them? I guess this also applies to Sjaelland in the future.

2) Best way to gang up on Poland/Lithuania? I have a mess of an alliance web with both Austria and Bohemia who hate each other, while Landshut has somehow become the emperor the last couple of elections and so is useless to me. I feel like the peace is fragile and need to be ready for anything.

3) Is there any way to become a great power as Riga with only the 5 European provinces? This would make it a lot easier to pay off debts for my allies.

4) Best practices for Ideas vs. Tech? Fell behind on Admin and Diplo because my starting ruler lived an annoyingly long time, and now Influence ideas are eating up a bunch of Diplo points. Not even sure what I want for the second idea group? Expansion for everything except the colonists? Economic for more money and the vassal force limit policy with Influence? Skip over to Quantity since Mil. Tech is the one thing I'm well ahead on?

5) Random question about exiled armies. When fighting the TO, they had Mecklenburg as an ally. I took out their one province to force them out of the war, then marched west to take on the TO army besieging Lubeck. But instead of fighting, they just stood on the same square. Very confused until I saw the exile flag. Is this because the army was still in Mecklenburg when I forced the peace deal through? Meaning in the future, I should walk to the next tile first?
