I'd love to dive into this but it feels like i might want to wait for the next Steam Sale or Paradox weekend Thanks

Great questions! Thanks for reading!


I only have the DLCs proper, not the visual unit packs and such. I also don't use any mods from Workshop.


Many DLCs add a lot to the game, especially the earlier ones. I do think having ones that are pertinent to where and whom you are playing makes sens,e like Third Rome and Cossacks for a Russian dynasty.

I wouldn't want to do every single DLC while learning the game at the same time, but you can turn on which DLCs to use for a given campaign.

I'd recommend a stater nation like Portugal or the Turks for your first campaign.

Getting a Bundle with the first few expansions during the upcoming holiday sale would make sense.
