I have a suggestion.
We should remove navies from Kazan, Golden Horde, Astrakhan, Sibir, Crimea, Uzbeks and Georgia.
And we should remove artillery from Kazan, Golden Horde, Sibiria. They never actually use guns at all. And it will be good idea to change prices for infantry for all khanates to highest possible (I think should be A coded) and cavalry to lowest possible (should be D coded). Kazan, Astrakhan, Golden Horde, Crimea, Sibiria and Uzbeks was normadic countries. Actually may be its good idea to remove complitely infantry from Golden Horde (they never really use infantry).
And Hartmann. Please check config tool. You have removed pictures from major powers settings. Thats wrong. Program asks for this pictures and descriptions and if it never find this files its return error.

Are you sure that this countries can have "correct" flag and emblem?
They never use such things (from european point of view). But of cause emblems from Jeremy's site always looks great and can be used.
I am not 100% sure that was correct in our European sense, but it makes more sense than a simple black banner. Check the website where I found them:

About Khanates: I will consider changing building costs, but I don´t want to remove possibilities of certain army types altogether completely because I´m also thinking of the possible human player for these nations.
About Config: What kind of errors do You mean specifically? (I did not encounter any problems until now.)
Hartmann
I have played as human for this nations. Its quit hard task but possible to play. Any way fleets should be removed. Crimea as naval force looks terrible especialy because she builds really big fleets.
I mean in IGC.eu file in you have removed pictures and descriptions from changed majors. This can couseerrrs.
AFAIK all the majors get their map picture and description just like in the GC. However, the minors don't, since there is no picture and desc available for them. In any case it shouldn't cause errors since the text and image are purely cosmetic.
Here is problem. If you insert minor country without pictures or describtions this can cause (its already cause in my game) errors which can be fatal (this depends from system installed). Program just did not understand empty string in pictures and decribtions, she tries to find files and if she did not find them error appeares. Add fictional pictures and describtions, please.
Hmm, I was not aware this was a problem... It would be relatively easy to add some dummy text and a picture, I suppose, but if we don't want to use some text already available in text.csv we need to use the patch tool to add it. I will fix this.

I've found I have to hit the space bar to load the game for minors. It is no major issue. Maybe this is what Tanone is encountering?
The game appears to lock up but all you need to do is hit space bar. Are you getting a specific error message Tanone? I am not getting a message, it just seems to freeze until I hit the space bar and then all is well.

Re: Doomie
This is really weird ... I have no probs at all! No errormessage, no freeze. Why? I´m also quite sure I have the pictures coming with the majors. On the other hand I´m already using the next version of the tool, but I can´t remember having had problems with the one coming with 2.0f.

I'm not concerned about it.
The same thing was going on with 1.9c.
At first I was a bit paniced but I recall the game "sticking" before and hitting either escape or the space bar and "freeing" it up and so I did the same and it works fine.
BTW, I am running the IGC on the 1.07a base, not 1.08 (this is my "main configuration on my laptop). I have a 1.08 with IGC but I think it is the 1.07c version of the IGC (or is it the 1.5d or e?... you can tell I'm a bit involved with EU and the IGC variants - which again, my favorite is still the 1.5e version with Sardinia but alas, without Doomie's IGC 'toolie').

Mughal empire expansion
The Mughal empire never reaches close to the size it was historically, since all the provinces around it are uncontrolled and it doesn't colonize. Would a way around this be to increase it's national provinces to those it historically held? That way it may pick them up, and would be more of a military presence in the area than it is now.
Specifically, I would include 539 540 541 552 553 554 555 556 557 558 559 562. Any comments?

The situation in India is actually intended to model the 18th century situation rather than the condition in 1492. It would be more historically accurate if the Mogul Empire dominated the subcontinent, but then it would never collapse making it impossible for the political situation of the 18th century to appear.
India seems a bit too easy to colonize for my tastes. Giving the Mughals a bit more strength might slow colonization down a bit and make it more of a challenge. And it should be, considering what a goldmine it is.
We can give Mughals some colonization power. Give them very small colonial dynamizm and make ai file with targets in India only.
Add the Byzantines!! Make it an option to play as the Byzantine. Just remove the Turkish captital to some other province, then give the Byzantines Thrace and whit a big army to retake their lost provinces!
Would be a really scenario, cause I think I speak for more people than myself.

The Byzantines should have the Morea and maybe Trebizond too, as Byzantine princes held both those places even after the fall of Constantinople itself (until 1460 and 1461 respectively). But if we are turning back the clock in the Balkans, Serbia and Bosnia would have to be independent as well, as they only disappeared a scant few decades before the start of EU and if the Byzantines have slowed down the Turks, the latter shouldn't have been able to annex those two states yet.
