    In this video titled EU4 A to Z - The WORST RNG I've EVER Had In EU4 I play as Kildare in Europa Universalis 4 1.34 Lions of The North. This is the series titled A to Z where I attempt to play every* nation in EU4 in alphabetical order. Of course I had to remove some nations so the challenge doesn't get too boring. In this video I play as the nation of Kildare and I attempt to conquer Guinea Bissau, Guinea, Equatorial Guinea and Papua New Guinea. So, let's see if I managed to do it! I hope you guys enjoy this series. If you enjoyed this video consider leaving a like and subscribing for more content in the future.

    Funny random facts: the FitzGerald family moved to Spain after England converted to protestantism and various rebellions failed to install a catholic state in Ireland, all of those with spanish support, the family ende becoming a millitary noble family in Spain and even in EU4 you can get general and admirals as Spain whose surname is FitzGerald

    • @paulstruber2808
      @paulstruber2808 Год назад +54

      Also "New Guinea" referes to the whole island, not only to the part, which is under control of Papua New Guinea. The western part of the island is calles "Western New Guinea" and is part of Indonesia. The islands New Britain, New Ireland and Bougainville are not part of the island of New Guinea, but are part of the nation of Papua New Guinea.

  • @marclefleur6158
    @marclefleur6158 Год назад +2

    Nice game. Good work.I honestly thought that's what happens to me when I overestimate my powers in this still overwhelming game. That they'd all come at you at once and chop you up. Playing for Ireland (specially if England is strong and not destroyed by, say, losing the Hundred Years War or the Civil War) is very difficult precisely because you have to realise yourself differently. Colonization is one of the few options, though honestly if you're colonizing Southeast Asia (the Moluccas and those little islands in Indonesia) it's awfully annoying to micromanage. If you're colonizing North America, it's rather boring. Honestly, there's not much money in it either. The problem is if Spain is too powerful. That's why in my game for Ireland, I eventually took the Spanish down. Now they're happy to give me a couple of colonies they've been laboriously building up. So I improved my game by colonizing West Africa and then making vassals out of those tribes. Now I'm planning to turn it into the New Roman Empire.

    Kilwa is pain. Even if you conquer the region, or even all of southern Africa, you're going to be broke, drowning in inflation, and with painful units that can't fight anything.
    Since it happens to have a mission tree related to Persia - apparently Kilwa was, mythically, founded by a Persian from Shiraz - maybe form Persia as Kilwa? I know it'll take a while, but it'll be way more fun than playing in continental Africa.
