    Ahhh... Lithuania. My old mistress.
    Have you ever considered forgoing +1 diplo privelage, getting the cossaks privelage, selling estates and then completing the first mission that gets you claims on the Pontic? That way you can immediately declare war on Crimea on Dec. 11th provided they have no strong allies. And on top of that you're flush with cash for conquest.

    I do the opening moves for Lithuania a little different, always ally the Teutons and either Hungary or Bohemia (depending on Polish rivalries, a restart might be needed. But I usually just rival and insult them to get 2/3 of the aforementioned nations as an ally). Then fight a humiliation war against Novgorod for Show Strength first, curry favors with your allies and do the war against Poland a little later (usually around 1448/1449). Then declare on Livonian Order a month later and fully annex them (since Teutons won't join), then focus on Poland. Break alliance with Teutons (obviously) right after the war.

      I also go for Decentralized Bureaucracy and accept Prussian and Crimean, this makes the mission reward for Enforce a Commonwealth -10% Development Cost which I synergize with Magdeburg Laws to spawn Colonialism. But I see the tax edict is a lot stronger than I thought.

      @lookasetbella I love the part when you said something about it only being 4 years till you abdicate and actually get that ruler then realising off screen you can't abdicate untill 20 years or rule so the heir was like ​34 when you were actually able abdicate. If you couldn't get a decent heir in that time without hitting the nasty make heir button I would be surprised. The video itself was very interesting though. That 300 dev increase from hitting dev buttons was very satisfying. All around good video, sorry for the snarky comment after only watching 40 seconds of it 😛

      Because admin dev is the weakest in the long run. The end of the 1st era is also the best time to burn it, especially if you have an edict for +50% taxes because you will get +50% money for it.
