Description

Europa Universalis IV: Lions of the North adds new mission trees and historical options for a number of Baltic Sea nations. Many of these options include new “branching missions'' which allow greater variety and replayability as you explore different alternate histories through the decisions you make.

Europa Universalis IV: Lions of the North includes new mission trees for:



  • Denmark: The leader of the Kalmar Union desires unity in the kingdom and can pursue commercial and political dominance of the Hansa and Northern Sea trade regions.
  • Sweden: A major power in waiting, Sweden can claim a primary position in Scandinavia, ready to intervene and project power on the continent.
  • Norway: Resist the influence of powerful partners and strike a new path as a naval power in the North Sea or even across the Atlantic.
  • Scandinavia: A united northern nation will have a wide range of new options to project its power as the cold lands of the region get more developed.
  • Teutonic Order: Once a great Crusader state, now it fights for survival against Polish and Lithuanian pressure. Follow the path to become Prussia, or rediscover the zealous power of religious war.
  • Poland, Lithuania and the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth: Unite the kingdoms and develop your vast lands while maintaining cohesion against recalcitrant nobles.
  • Livonian Order and Courland: Follow the path of the Crusader to rival your heretic neighbor or secularize your state.
  • Riga: Religious merchant of the Hanseatic League, Riga can manipulate the politics of the trade alliance to instigate conflict and reap the spoils.
  • Danzig: Create a Prussian nation from this key city-state.
  • Gotland: Choose different paths as a monarchy, merchant republic or pirate haven to dominate the Baltic.
  • Finland: A free Finland can explore its destiny separate from Swedish rule.

This pack also includes:

  • Unique Government Reforms: New government reform options for many nations in the area.
  • New Unit Types: Recruit Swedish Carolean infantry and Polish-Lithuanian Winged Hussars under certain conditions.
  • New Estate Privileges for regional powers.

I really hate this DLC. And honestly the direction Paradoy is taking EU IV. This is way to expensive for a few generic mission trees and a few special Units. It plays like a mediocre immersion mod. In effect it

Big improvement in compare to previous DLC's, content itself is good however if we compare to what you get for the money it is expensive. Buy only on discounts.

One of my least favorite DLCs. Buffed the Baltic nations to a ludicrous degree. You want to be a Baltic crusader state and conquer Asia? Sure, here's a buttload of permaclaims across half the continent! Lame.

Only writing this after Domination came out, making this review about Paradox and the state of EU4 in general. Lions of the North was decent, but Paradox's DLC policy is insane. With the work they do on those DLC's,

Some interesting missions and flavor, nice to see PDX working with modders, however don't be fooled. Nepotism keeps the developers from actually working genuinely with modders; some get treated well, others get their IP
