I have 1.04alpha, the latest official patch. I want to finnish my current game first before I try a beta.....if youre still interested in a pic I could post it then....

Micha: PIF has been up since yesterday.

BeBro: 1.04alpha, I like that name! While being untrue, it describes the differences between 1.04a and 1.04b quite well!

[BeBMan]

I thought the a is for alpha.....however

[Nikolai]

It isn't. It just shows that there was a correction after 1.04 was released.

my "trick" was to just breed brilliant kids and have them inherit everything through careful marriages and well-timed assasinations. The O'Neils of Ireland were rulers of the British Isles, Byzantium, France, all of Germany and all of Italy, and all of Africa.... mongols didn't stand a chance

One of these days I'm actually going to pull out the CK disk and install it. Currently, I've been spending my gaming time getting murdered by the AI in Victoria. I'm still not really sure how to get people to work at my factories.

Impressive!

Though that´s not the exploit I was thinking of. Actually, it´s rather the way CK should be played...

Don't build a factory in a region that doesn't have enough pops to support it unless you have no other choice. Never promote more clerks than you have laborers in a region.

I do have CK but the game ftruastrated me so much, I went back to playing EU2. So what exactly is "The Trick" as it 'might' induce me to reinstall the game.

It´s a good strategy guide which contains much of what I call the "trick". Notice that the thing I´m talking about is an exploit of the game engine which makes winning too easy, so I won´t give it away (most know already anyway). And if you reread this Apolyton thread more carefully, you will also find several hints
