The Birth of Corporations

A Victoria 3 overhaul mod that begins in 1444, the Late Middle Ages. It introduces over 200 new technologies, a massive list of new goods and buildings, and a completely reworked Pop needs system.

* * * * Some Tips at the start of the game * * * *

Much effort has been put into "lack" as a driver of political and commercial expansion.

No region is self-sufficient, which encourages the pursuit of treaties and colonies. However, for those who look for a tall game or that get stuck Technology come as the savior unlocking new ways of producing goods which require different raw materials.

Relevant Goods
Some relevant goods to look for at the start of the game are:

Tin is used by Blacksmiths which are essential at the start of the game either to produce tools (needed to reduce the construction costs) and edged weapons (used to supply armies). Another early use for Tin is to produce bronze cannons in Artillery Foundries.

This mineral is very scarce worldwide. The main european sources are located in West Country, Brittany, Galicia and Bohemia. The other world sources are located in California, Potosí, Hokkaido, Summatra and South East Asia.

Dyes are used in the fabric industry, books and Palaces. At the start of the game its availability is restricted to warm climates, requiring import through trade to Europe.

At the beginning of the game, shipyards insulate boats with black stuff, making Tar an essential substance for ships and trade until the invention of white stuff and later copper sheathing.

Tar is produced in coniferous forests (mainly in Sweden and Finland) or collected from Tar Pits, abundant in the Middle East.

Both meat and fish are now local goods.
Salt is needed to make salt fish and charcuterie, identified as groceries.

Now, only the poorest SoLs buy grain directly. The rest will order Bread, which is a local good.

Bakeries can also produce biscuits as byproduct, which are equivalent to bread but not limited to local consumption. Ports require either groceries or beer and biscuits as provisions to the merchant marine.
