Good day all. It's Tuesday, so that means that it's time for another EU4 dev diary....on any other day than today. But June 6th is Sweden's National Day, so I'm sitting in my shorts enjoying a rare spot of sun

Well, regardless of that, I want to talk about a couple more things being updated alongside v1.22. The Custom Nation Designer and Achievements

The Custom Nation designer for owners of El Dorado continues to be a popular choice for players and we wanted to return to it to add many of the new bonuses. The game has evolved plenty since its introduction in early 2015 and many modifiers have been added since then to accommodate such evolutions. As such, we bring these to the Nation Designer. I'll admit, we looked at some of the modifiers and thought "Who would create a nation with THIS?" but decided that it's your nation, your rules. In they went

This list is potentially non-exhaustive (I'm on my balcony, not the office) but we are happy with how the list turned out, much like how we added Monarch Personalities to the designer in Rights of Man.
