Very good even at 0.3. The mod adds more strategic decisions to Victoria 2 without departing from the game's general feel or compromising performance. If this version had better in-game information (especially with automatic peace-making involving New World powers), I'd rate it a perfect 10.

First look at 0.30: this is a promising mod but it's short on content.

The map is great and the graphics are generally good. The character class structure is a good start, but needs meaningful decisions to be interesting. A few Great Works meaningful to the setting have been placed, but better use could be made of this game feature. Buildings are mostly vanilla and that's mostly OK. (It does seem like a missed opportunity for adding Forgotten Realms lore to the game experience though.) There are no historical bloodlines, which is disappointing, and forged bloodlines seem to be vanilla. Societies are thinly reskinned, though this is more understandable given the amount of work required to add a functional society to CK2. I was pleased by the patron deity feature, although some important characters probably need to have their patrons already selected in the history files.

No doubt a lot of good work has gone into the mod already and I think the team should be proud of getting to this point. While the bare patches I've noted above do hurt the experience, I'm confident that future versions will address those concerns. Keep up the good work!
