Europa Universalis IV: Cossacks now available
The latest expansion of Paradox Development Studio’ real time historical grand strategy game Europa Universalis IV, namely Cossacks, has finally arrived on digital storefronts across the globe. Cossacks features new hosts of invaders and rebels as well as new game mechanics and improvements. Another new feature that has been revealed today is the fact that players can now track their performance against their own history but also against other players in the form of a leaderboard. The leaderboard records any game score you achieve in Ironman mode but even if you aren’t interested in playing this mode, the expansion pack offers the following plethora of content.
- The Estates – Allocate lands to clergy, nobles and merchants as you try to balance the powers in your Renaissance state.
- Advanced diplomatic options – Threaten war, trade favors, and tell the world which provinces are of strategic importance in your plans
- Tengri – Tengri is now a Syncretic faith, allowing it to tolerate a secondary religion as if it were a national faith.
- Horde Unity and Razing – Nomadic nations now must pay attention the horde unity of their tribes – a unity that can only be maintained by the occasional pillaging
- Improved Culture Change – You can now restore a previous culture to a converted province, or convert a province you hold to a culture that is not your own.
- Native Policies – Set your policy for colonial encounters with natives. Are you focused on quick subjugation, peaceful growth or trading advantages?
- Improved Espionage – New spy actions allow you to study the technology of more advanced countries and prod your rivals’ subjects towards independence.
