Pronóia System

[wind finch]

-10% max tax makes the law completely unviable. Make it something like -10% or -5% tax efficency instead so that the unique vassal type of Byzantium can be used beyond the first 5-10 years.

neg tax efficency delete money. -10 max tax at least keeps the money within the nation in your estates.

[wind finch]

Yeah but rn pronóia is outright harmful and will be like the first or maybe second law you always replace. With perhaps a tax efficency debuff (or maybe something else, like increased noble power) it could be an useful tool to administer regions

[gaunt escarp]

Just looked. There is an event to reform it, removing the -10% max tax and making it a fairly strong policy.

[wind finch]

Ooh I lowkey missed that

Still, keeping such a debuff for like 30 years?

[stiff comet]

i honestly think its a good idea for them to have a tough byzantium start give you rewards if you shoulder some of the penalties for longer

[wind finch]

But -10% max tax is so bad you will always use your first parliament to remove this

[stiff comet]

i mean i got pretty far without doing so. what would be the point of having a reformation event if the law starts off good?

[gaunt escarp]

I removed it then added it back later
