Thanks for the video Red Hawk, love it!
Could we see a guide for the Great Horde?
or Oirat
Could you do a guide for Milan to Italy to the Roman Empire?
Please do any nation in the new world (aztec, maya or Inca) you barely have any guides for those regions and their new 1.37 missions look amazing, or just generally guides of Nations you havent done before (e.g outside of europe)
The small island Daimyo of So. I am essentially asking for a pirate republic Japan
I just finished my first brandenburg campaign following the old guide...
If youre up for some spice, try following playmaker's guide and dismantle the hre at 1450. Its not as hard as it sounds, but needs a bit of luck
For a faster and stronger Prussia into Germany play the Teutonic Order. Managed to get German Borders by 1520 and it wasn’t even that hard tbh
is it any different from the new one?
@@qwertixi what do u mean?
@@therealphilipino6902 is the old guide of Brandenburg much different from this one
I played BB extensively recently and have some additional tips:
-You can usually rival Luneburg right at the start, if you wait until Dec 31 you can declare the next day and they don't tend to get strong allies, often they only have 1 small ally if any
-Since you won't have much PP at this point regardless, just wait until that war ends to set another rival, if you can do another humiliation war it helps to be able to choose the weakest enemy, just leave a slot open for Wolgast
-Cavalry can be deleted to save cash and free up the force limit for mercs, very useful if you can hire a merc company with a nice general, a few siege pips will speed up the early wars drastically and if nobody got massive allies you can pull off 2 or 3 humiliation wars before declaring on Wolgast
-Remember to set Wolgast as a rival right before declaring on them, after this you'll be sitting at 100PP for a long long time
-If you give out 2 of the mana privileges and sell land you can get a nice chunk of startup cash and then buying neumark + taking land from the clergy in the "Build our own institutions" event will get you right at 10%, just don't give out more privileges than those 2 until after your Wolgast war
-The same day you send the peace deal to Wolgast, use your last 10% crownland to give the last mana privilege, since no estates have much influence Wolgast's land should put you right over 10% and you can seize land pretty soon afterwards. Just don't unpause after sending the peace deal or the land share will update before you can give out the privilege. Unpause for a day before assigning any other privileges you want to give the estates.
-Sometimes Wolgast's last province can't be occupied because they'll blockade you, but if they ally Saxe-Lauenburg (they almost always do) you can occupy their capital and instead of separate peacing, just full annex Wolgast a little sooner. Sometimes though you can just rush the island before they realize a ship should block it and if you leave 1 unit behind on the continent, the rest of your army can stackwipe his and occupy that island before his ally shows up
-Wolgast likes to ally Denmark/Bohemia, while this can be recovered from it's usually easier to just restart
-You can just wage your humiliation wars while improving with Poland and Austria, and sometimes Poland will accept an alliance the month after the marriage so you can free up a diplomat to curry favors
-Ally Ansbach instead of electors, the HRE emperor likely won't die early and if you're allied to Ansbach you can potentially feed them some of the land required for their mission, saving you from accruing AE. I notice about a 50/50 chance for Nuremberg to ally Saxony, you can just call Poland in with curried favors and stomp them, but set Nuremberg as vital interest first or they might occupy it and hand it off to Bayreuth. Any land Bayreuth takes will be force returned, but Ansbach can usually get away without returning any land. You can also release Coburg in this war if you don't want to fight Saxony again later, Ansbach usually won't want to annex it in the first war.
-Your starting heir tends to die early so be aware you can abdicate midway through 1460, check the ledger for the specific date the starting ruler came to power and it's just 20 years later. Just don't abdicate if you have too long a truce with whoever has the provinces you need in Franconia. The mission for 25 permanent PP starts ticking the day your starting heir becomes ruler, not when you complete the mission
-If you call Poland in against Teutons you can just annex Danzig and give them everything but Marienburg, vassalize TO in the next war and use favors to take as much land back as possible. This prevents the monument there from dropping in level, but Poland will usually break the alliance since they want Danzig, so be prepared to just do a reconquest war instead of using favors.
-If you take espionage first you can get an event around November of every year ending in 4 or 9, one of the 5 year pulse events from espionage that gives a 6/6/6 heir. It's supposed to just get +3 to each category but every single time I've seen it it's been 6/6/6. Espionage is also nice all around and provides a siege boost, pretty much the only thing Prussia won't have on its own.
-RM/Ally Burgundy whenever convenient and get their relations up, the Inheritance is almost guaranteed
-When you decide to go for emperor you only need 2 other electors, the bishoprics are nice because they can't get marriages from their other allies, only go for a third if you worry Austria will get 3 votes as well once your initial expansion is done.
-You can usually diplo vassalize Gotland once you get a bit bigger, it's just nice for their monument and trade power, and to remove them as a potential ally from any enemies you might want to kill
-If you improve with one of Burgundy's subjects you can get them to share knowledge with you as soon as they embrace Renaissance, just keep an eye on it and send the request before Burgundy does, I always went for Flanders since they seemed to get it first. You can easily spawn Faceting in Danzig this way, but if you plan on abdicating remember to let faceting spawn first, it's easy to forget it requires 50 prestige
Sure... but have you ever thought about not warring? All those innocent people died because you wanna form prussia
@@pepeepupoo
Be Brandenburg
Don't be at war constantly
pick 1
Aragon, Ayutthaya, Castile, Denmark, Japan colonial, Malacca, Portugal, or Sweden guide would be dope
I assume his heir died before his king so he didn't get the ansbach pu and forgot to discuss it, but I like to ally them and try to feed them the provinces needed for the franconian tree during the down time instead of personal wars. It is a second source of ae sink, and that 25 permanent power projection is just so nice.
The only problem with this strategy is if your ruler die too soon, and you have to do all the wars in those 5 years anyway. That's why I prefer to just disinherit it and get a better heir
yeah for real, if Nuremberg allies Saxony you can feed it to Ansbach and if you don't plan on abdicating asap to prevent the heir dying first you can sometimes even feed them Wurzburg's 2 provinces a little later
always abdicate though albrecht achilles died like 50 times pre-1460 in my runs
I love these guides but I would also love to see an Aztec or Inca guide for this update since they got so much flavor! Additionally I think it would be super helpful having an estates guide and army composition guide for newer players
I like opening with Espionage-Innovative-Offensive. Getting that AE reduction early helps a ton, as does the vassalization acceptance. Plus this combo just gives you incredibly cheap advisors and god tier siege ability, which I find super necessary in the HRE due to how many nations with forts there are.
Also, haven’t done this on this patch yet, but for the Lusatia + Silesia mission, I’m thinking it could be good to take the three provinces in Lusatia, 1 in Silesia, and then release Silesia as a vassal and reconquer their cores in the next war with Bohemia. Didn’t use to really be worth it since there were two nations with 2-3 cores each, but now that Bohemia has that mission that lets them unite their two vassals into Silesia before annexing them, it should be possible if you wait long enough to dec on Bohemia, as you did in this video.
Could you do a guide on the Aztecs and their new mission tree? Would love to see a full guide since your last video on them was way back in A to Z
Nice idea now for your first war vs Bohemia is to take a province in Lusatia and one province in Silesia, release Lusatia and Silesia as vassals and then do a second reconquest war against Bohemia. Little aggressive expansion, saves admin points and you are much stronger with two vassals in the beginning of the game, than directly owning the land.
Maybe an unpopular opinion, but i really don't like the intro part where you show your "results". Personally I need to skip this part all the time because it spoils all the fun of what you're going to make out of it from 1444 onwards. Even if its meant to be a guide. Plus the result at the end may vary for everybody recreating this. Just my opinion, but yeah, I'm not a big fan of spoilers like this.
Otherwise great video 😊
Great guide; only thing I didn't quite agree with was waiting to grant the junkers the ccr policy. Increased levies already exempts them from seize land. Also, I can never get behind the inno strat lol, would rather open with espionage tbh
@BobbiusRossiusThat’s just meta and not fun, stacking ICA is fun
@BobbiusRossius I think inno + quality is a valid strat (ICA stacking), especially if you open with inno since you get more value out of it that way, but I just can't get behind it personally
@BobbiusRossius So you start out by saying it’s not about the meta, and then you say that’s it’s more effective to take espionage/diplo/admin.
I mean sure you can play like that, but taking the same 3 or 4 idea groups for 99% of countries is, as I said, lame as fuck
@BobbiusRossius disagree, while i agree with you that the most optimal way would be to take espionage etc, for newer players is actually better to have better combat modifiers, as they are probably worse in wars and everythingoverall, they also need a slower pace in the game probably, they probably wont expand as much, as this is a guide for newer players, this is probably an easier focus than going for meta expansion ideas
@@legitplayin6977 When you do a guide for beginners, you should play optimally, not roleplay something.
Since it's been a few patches (1.33 was the most recent I could find), perhaps the time has come for an updated Burgundy guide?
I'm surprised how many Brandenburg guides there are but no Teutonic Order guide.
I tried to do that privilege setup but that literally destroys your income because of the penalties on tax modifiers it causes ☹️
A Livonia guide would be great, I've never been able to get the achievement, either Russia, Denmark, or the Commonwealth wipe me out.
At 43:00 you talk about giving out the special privelage only after you hit 30% crownland, because the privelage makes it so the nobels are exapt from seize land. but you already have the "increased Levies" privelage from the nobles who already does that. and you did not take the compromise with the nobility gov reform. so the Nobels have been exempt from seize land from the start of the game, so should you not just take "consoolidated noble contracs" as soon as you can, since you have no negatives from it?
Which DLCs do I need in order to follow this guide?
Starter Pack + Emperor i think
Gotland pirates have become really tough in 1.37 cause denmark will declare reconquest within the first year on you now.... so if you wanna give that a try
HUNGRY LIKE A BEAT GONNA FEAST HUMZA MALOUD YOU KNOW IM GONNA FEAST MY NAME IS HUMZA MALOUD AM ALSO GAY
wow what a productive comment
I love Prussian ideas and forming them as the TO. But I hate the Prussian gov reform because of the half governing capacity because I love to blob as Prussia
Can someone please explain why you would ever get more then one mil idea as Prussia?
I always get offensive to stack siege ability and get the discipline, but apart from that, what else do you need?
Your national ideas give you an absolutely cracked +20% morale AND +5 discipline AND +20% inf combat ability AND +25% national manpower modifier.
Protector of the faith is another good source of morale and manpower, and militarization gives you even more discipline and manpower.
Anything more than one mil idea is completely overkill and a waste of an idea slot imo
You vs Ludi et Historia on Brandenburg guide into prussia
this is crazy i JUST formed prussia using your old guide way slower than you did boutta do it again
I love opening espionage inno offensive in the hre. Good sieges good advisors and good AE
I got killed because austria decided to protect wolgast even after I allied them
first time playing the game.. heir died and i nearly got PU'd so i decided to get a new heir... didnt know it broke royal marriges and made everyone automatically hate me :D
It isn’t dangerous to royal marry superpowers because of the succession problem? I mean you can become a small partner if your King doesn’t have any heirs?
LOL I can't become emperor because I have a female ruler and she is 9 years old (my male heir died and was replaced by the girl).
22:21 So, stettin allied poland and every sing country around me is allied to Austria. What do I do?
The smaller German states formed a coalition against me for expanding too fast
Honey come look, new red hawk lore dropped
Thx for all your's vids very helpfull
I used some tips but avoided others to get my own campaign going and I'm certainly doing great right now thanks man
my Prussia is a little more naval and a little more loyal to Poland
We fought Bohemia in a Crisis and now I'm personal king of both Brandenburg and Bohemia
the hohenzollerns died off but a branch family with Polish routes took the throne and now our family rules in Brandenburg-Bohemia, England(almost Britain), and Poland.
We're rivals with the Hapsburgs and I avoided your HRE thing like the plague, im the big bad guy who has coalitions jumping me but I'm also loved by many big factions and the 4th strongest faction(Behind China, Muscovy, and Ottoman if you're interested)on the map already dominating the Baltic sea with my small fleet
I think for the 1st idea is better to go either diplo or espionage instead of a mil one. AE will be the biggest issue for expansion early on, and with these you can avoid coallition, specially with espionage. For the 2nd and 3rd ones, it coulb be a combination of inno, adm, a money making one or a mil one, although for Prussia I think you can easily wait to take the military ideas only for the 4th or 5th ones without much problems. And if you go with espionage, you could consider if it's worth to refund for a different idea after dismantling the HRE.
And I don't think changing to strenghten nobles privileges is worthy after yo uconvert, because as Prussia you already get +25% manpower from the ideas, and with max militarization you can get up to +20% manpower recovery speed once you upgrade to normal militarization, so not to mention the excess of manpower that you might have right after you stop being the emperor.
Is Brandenburg better than Teutons for Prussia run in 1.37? Asking because i saw that Teutons can form Prussia by 1450s.
how do you deal with the relations malus for annexing vassals and annexing members of the HRE? i'll annex some of my vassals then the other ones take decades to have a high enough opinion of me to vassalize
Could someone explain the point of adding "Increased Levis"? Isn't it going to make seize land worse in the future?
In regards to Denmark I got lucky in my game, after they did ally the Teutons and Stettin, that the king was cruel so when I called Poland in they would refuse to join the war
In my last Bradenburg campaign, my ruler and heir died within the span of a month in the first few years. I love EU4
I was trying to follow this guide as I have only played a few times before but I became the HRE emperor In Jan 1445, and decided I would probably have to go off the beaten path.
Correct me if I'm wrong but don't you get 5% crownlands still even if nobles are exempt?
opening with a mil idea is bad advice. playing in the hre you should always take diplo or espionage as an opener
48:27
"Alright fellas I'm a free city now! Everyone's coming up Milhouse!"
This run was ruined by the habsburg heir
Wich DLC you’re using?
The AI Hungary is amazing
why in the version without all the dlc when starting a new game I can’t make a random new light?
Got damn, fully anex Teutonics but I went bankruptcy
get a trade idea witn brandenburg, their economy is shit until form prussia.
Can you make Teutonic Order playthrough to Germany please ?
Which is best for a Germany run, Brandenburg or the Teutonic Order?
i somehow got poland and lithuania as a pu because i had a jagelion on my throne lol
Please do prussia to Germany, that'd be epic to see from you
It never hurts as well to royal marry Burgundy just in case you want the inheritance
It could also help for the diplo vassals, as you should be able to annex nations you've diplo vassaled that border Burgundy and Burgundy's armies should clean up any rebels that would spawn in that part of your nation. I can see why he might not mention that in a guide like this though as that would be more of an intermediate to advanced strategy.
I just came make a part 2 of this please I love your vids bro
def. colect trade in baltic after taking over tutons
Scottish France
Uh, did Brandebourg get changed in the update ?
Castille guide??
Japon colonial campaign would be dope bro
The most purple army in the world
Trebizond guide when? 😢
Another excellent guide.
Could you say, what beautiful map mode do you use?
Terrain
Surprise Interrupt!!
:3
Gayyyyyyyy
I have yet to see a Scottish Burgundy. That is crazy.
I actually had it recently in a France save where I'd royal married Burgundy, and Scotland had lost a couple provinces to England while I was busy elsewhere. Burgundy didn't stay Scottish for long, as once I finished a war in Ireland that gave my vassal Meath the province of Ulster I revoked the guarantee and declared on Scotland after the truce was up to make them transfer Burgundy to me.
The inheritance either goes to Austria, France, or the highest developed royal marriage partner. The only thing that matters is development. This means Burgundy didn't marry into powerful partners.
Part 2 please
🎉
