OwnM3Z0 1,101 Posted 23 hours ago i dont know if this is an intentional placeholder thing, or if this is a bug and something lukasz missed, but religion pretty much does not function, all provinces auto convert to your religion once you even just occupy them, there's also no option to convert religion of province, for some reason religion in aoh2de due to this bug is more like map painting, please fix this @Łukasz Jakowski Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marerjh 283 Posted 14 hours ago That is intended behavior. A province’s religion is determined by its owner’s religion; the game does not have a separate “province religion” mechanic. Łukasz Jakowski 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marerjh 283 Posted 6 hours ago Well, to be fair they do have an impact on the budget and a significant influence on diplomacy, but sure we would like to see more. On the other hand internal politics and instability simulation has never been a strong side of AoH so that's not such a major downgrade OwnM3Z0 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
