  • Does anyone bother with dynamic missions?

    Aren't they just a pain in the arse, and generally completely impractical? Doesn't my Monarch realise that trying to occupy Flanders as England in 1500 will result in half of Europe kicking seven levels of sh*t out of us?

    Yeah, dyanamic missions suck. I don't think anyone really plays with them (unless you've done everything and need a REAL big challenge ). I think they are mainly there to keep your VPs down .

      wait... I never get assigned any missions as long as I have at least one ongoing at any time. I just take the keep whatever, for the free VP, and the safety of not having to take others in the meantime.

        Indeed, I turned them off for my current game. With stuff like "Build a Shipyard in Milan" when I didn't even own it was pretty damn stupid.

          Actually I like some of the early ones. For example, for Russia in the GC, hold onto Moscow for 20 vps, capture and hold Kazan for 30? vps, arrange a royal marriage for 10 vps, etc. Those are all do-able and get good VPs while your armies are getting clobbered.

            My favourite was being told to kick the Portuguese out of North Africa, when I was playing China

            There's the small matter of finding it first

              I have found them pretty easy (although I am only playing at normal difficulty level) things like keep calis or vassalise hannover have gotten me many VPs, I look at them as an oppotunity rather than a pain.
