Finally the day is here!

Welcome to the very first episode of our new Europa Universalis podcast! In this pilot episode our hosts Ryan and Lia are picking the brains of Will "BigBoss" Samelis - Content Designer at Paradox Tinto!

Hey everyone - Today we released patch 1.37.3, containing about 170 fixes. The patch is mainly focused on fixing King of Kings and Winds of Change content. Fixing CTDs, Diplomacy and Warfare related issues.

As always, please report any issues in our bug report forum[forum.paradoxplaza.com] or submit a support ticket[support.paradoxplaza.com]. Keep in mind while these changes shouldn't affect 1.37.0/1/2 save games too profoundly, as usual we can't 100% guarantee stability with saves. So it is recommended that you roll back to 1.37.2[forum.paradoxplaza.com] before continuing any ongoing campaigns!
