Question about new maps and badboy

[Jon]

First of all I have to say I haven't play EU2 for a long time, so excuse me if there's something wrong in my following reasoning.

If I'm not wrong you get badboy for each province you conquer, is the BB number you get the same for every map (original, WATK and mymap)?

If, for example, I want to start a new game as Aragon and my aim is to conquer the whole Iberian Peninsula, I'll get more BB depending on the map?

Thanks in advance for the answers.

Yes, but you can edit defines.txt to lower the badboy number. _COUNTRY_BB_PROVNOEVENT_ is the one you'd be looking for. (Or you could raise _COUNTRY_BB_LIMITBASE_ to keep the numbers the same but without as much possibility for badboy wars.)

Thanks Michael.

Anyways, how many provinces does the last version of WATK have? I've been searching for the number but I can't find it. It is just to make an idea of how much I should lower the province BB. Is 0.5 instead of 1.00 too much? Hum, I don't know.

BB is the same for WATK and yes, more provinces = more BB, but there are a number of handy random events that lower BB (and inflation for that matter). One for instance is having a disagreement with the Emperor, if you choose to 'give in' to him you will lose 3 BB and have some relation changes.

WATKABAOI has really sucked me back into playing this series. It's totally bloody awesome!
