Jack is joined by Tim and Joe for a full episode on Victoria 3. They cover how the game has changed since launch, what the Charters of Commerce and subsequent DLC updates have done to the economic and political systems, and whether it now stands as Paradox's strongest title. The conversation moves through the learning curve, the best nations to start with, the true cost of war, and what the upcoming Russia and China expansions might bring. If you have bounced off Victoria 3 before or are wondering whether now is a good time to get into it, this is the episode to start with.
