Their new mission tree promises to be loads of fun, in addition to new great projects and unique infantry! While we're at it, let's hunt some achievements, shall we?

    Pravus, it was Gustav I, or Gustav Vasa, who led Sweden to independence from the Kalmar Union with Norway and Denmark. Johan Vasa was his grandfather. 🙂

    Fun fact about the Carolean infantry he talks about:
    The Caroleans were famous for learning to sing prayers while marching to battle, even in the line of fire. This singing would be absolutely terrifying to enemies, who would break incredibly quickly

    I haven't played eu4 yet, but i've studied a bunch of economic history and Sweden during this era had a national strategy that focused so much on warfare that the economy was lowkey failing and people were producing everything for the purpose of war until they took a loan from Louis de Geer from the Netherlands and other dutch merchants. Does that have a role in the game or not?
