Im doing an Aztec run at the moment as well. My strategy is slightly different though. I conquered everything except provinces on the north and east coast so that the Spanish would attack someone else and not me. Which they duly did. Once they cored the province colonialism spread fast. Which enabled me to then reform my religion without fighting the Spanish. Now i have more troops than them and am in the process of wiping them out at almost tech parity. I also didnt take any techs apart from diplo 2 and military 5. I used all my points to dev my provinces. As you take most techs from the Spanish when you reform. My plan is to take all of california and rio grande. And then go conquer something in europe. Idea wise im thinking defensive, quantity, expansion will be good picks.
Looks fun, i quite liked making everyone into opm mesoamerican tributaries for extra monarch points, there's a mission and a govt reform that gives +1 to the number of points, so it ends up being 3 from each of them, and if you force nhuatl on someone you can make them a tributary in the next war
@PKpanzerkrieger yeah, though you can only do it to nahuatl countries, so it's a bit tedious since you need an extra war to force convert them, and by that point you lose the flower wars cb I think. If you fight them over anything you can make them a mesoamerican tributary
If you wanna do roundabout, you still can do animist aztec to get institution, then back to nahuatl and embrace federation gov reform for their reform progress building + federating all north america + indigenous idea. By the time europe comes, you own all north america + mexico area. Also has -20 pwsc from indigenous idea and passive reform progress tick from building.
@@boredom430 wtf are u saying? Mass murderers? Who are you talking about? British? In America, Africa or even worse, Australia? Or frenchies? Or Belgium💀?
"We will build a wall and make Europe pay for it"🗣️🔥🔥🔥
HAHAHAHAHA AGREE! AYE AYE GOD AZTECIA!
Should have went expansion ideas. You can get an explorer from the estates these days, so no need for explo. Nice video either way
You get that from having a colonist, you dont even need to take expansion, as reforming your religion gives a colonist

Does that also work after reforming the religion?

@@Shiptoast0 What do you mean fight them over anything?
@@PKpanzerkriegerAny CB that allows you to take provinces let's you tributary or force religion them, since you lose flower wars after reform

Reverse colonialism? Based on
It will come :) In the second episode.
Europeans were not sending their best
:)
Is it modded or did they rework the region?
This is Vanilla, whenever I do an episode with a mod I mention it in the episode and in the description.
Ah, smallpox factoid...
immigrants? more like conquerors
armed immigrants from scandinavia made the normans. technically they were still immigrant no matter what
no conquerors are not like this. they was mass murderers
@@boredom430mass murder is something that happens with conquest
@@superdevton1137 it was not a conquest definitely either.
