What OPMs do you enjoy playing? Have you played a campaign as any of these nations? Do you agree with my list? Let me know in the comment box below! If you have any ideas for future top 10 videos I'd love to hear your suggestions! Thanks for watching and see you on the next video.
I know it isn't an OPM, but Byzantium is a TPM(three province minor) that I am probably way to obsessed with playing. After I watched the video, I think I might try playing Trebizond to mix things up a bit...
Tyrone over Desmond!
I like Navara, but I haven't played in months, my computer died so I'm stuck with a 16 years old laptop, cant wait for the new expansion
I really love Ardabil.
Albania is interesting with their initial diplomacy options and Skanderbeg.
"trebizond is really good" *shows trebizond getting smacked around like a tetherball*
yeah that happens if u play them
Yeah, tetherball is a good sport!
That was the perfect example to go with "Trebizond is really good" because after all that, they won and stack wiped the enemy, lol.
I swear if Ulm isn’t first...
First in dreams and in memes, Ulm will always lead in our heart.
Well if a (dis)honorable mention at the end counts as "first," I guess you got what you wanted..
Where is my boy shimazu? Not only rival their ideas the ones of oda but they also start with a core on one their neighbours. Plus i like their flag and colour.
@@CH-Sibrand
Shimazu purple boys are my favorite in Japan as well. Good combat ideas too
@@proof4469 The real Question is how my Answer landed here. As i was writing it on the genereal Video. Used Mobile App tho so maybe its that.
Played as Carib. Followed instructions.
England came.
Sunni Nation..
Instructions unclear. Ended up smoking hashish.
Real shit?
@@cheddaboyant7817 yea, this could happens if, Morocco/Granada won Iberian war, Holland independence and have colony in near mali and somehow became Muslim (it's possible, trust me),
Im smoking hash too rn
Ulm isn’t the best one province minor, *its the best nation in the game*
Yea opms cant own the moon at game Start.
It's the best one province MAJOR
meme needs to die
What you doing here for honor xxxpunisherxxx?
666th like!
*Sees title*
Let the Ulm and Ryukyu commence.
let the memes be dreams
And Caddo
10:15 - Potato fields? POTATO FIELDS!? It's 1444 you sponge, there were no potatoes in the Western Hemisphere yet - they were all still in South America.
Agh, it makes me so angry when people get their potato history wrong. You need Kilian to show you the light.
I need a potato history lesson
don't you mean eastern hemisphere?
I do. I was so filled with untold rage I lost my bearings. I've calmed down a bit now though.
You're right. More right rice fields.
@@AlzaboHD Eire is pronounced "AIR-EH".
Ternate used to have a free colonist but paradox nerfed it :(
He missed the biggest thing those two minors can do.
They can get to Australia and move their capital there hilariously early; and proceed to abuse Trade Companies since their capital is neither in Asia or Africa. Not to mention Australian Gold and the high development in New Zealand.
When? From what update?
@@raikaria3090 Direct rule from SYDNEY!
@@PAINNN666 I can't recall which update off the top of my head, but you can certainly roll back far enough to play a version where Tediore/Ternate get an extra colonist.
I think it might have been Mare Nostrum.
@@raikaria3090 Not only this but with a capital in a colonial region, you can declare war on European Colonial Nations without fighting their European Overlords. It is pretty easy to conquer all the Americas, SE Asia, etc.
Well Ulm was technically on here so we're good
People from Hamburg say “Moin Moin” instead of “Guten Tag “
Fetov people also say moin/mojn in southern Denmark
No, it's a single "Moin", and it always has been
moin means guten tag, moin moin invites to a klönschnack, smalltalk.
So it's like saying _Night Night_ for good night? Except for _Morning Morning_ for good day?
_WHAT_ !?! I thought for sure that was a Danish thing.
Or, I guess, a Southern Jutland thing... Which is to say a Northern Slesvig thing...... Right, well, I guess it makes sense after all.
Thanks for sharing :)
Gonna be real with your chief. Muscovy is the most untrustworthy ally I’ve ever had throughout all my games. All my homies hate Muscovy
If you think Muscovy is bad just wait until you ally Great Britain! We only make that mistake once lol
@@AlzaboHD or castille/spain. THEIR ARMIES JUST SIT THERE!!!
@@AlzaboHD on the other hand, France and Ottomans are fantastic allies. Ottomans in my experience never betrayed me, even still protecting me when i got coalition'd again when they are on low manpower and just finished a war in the middle east
"Hamburger Potential"
HAMBURGER KINETICS
"Hamburger Ideas"
Everytime I play Trebizond I get turbo eaten by Ottomans until 1500 :(
Trebizond is tough! If you can expand fast enough you can sometimes get Poland-Lithuania or Muscovy as an ally. Keep trying you got this!
@@AlzaboHD but its hard in the beginning because you literally have no Economy at all and the only one in the Region except theodoro who gets eaten by crimea is georgia but only as Long as you dont touch immeritia or scamzche and those are your only expanding chances. :(
The best campaign i had with trebizond was some while ago
I allied byzantium when the ottomans attacked albania i attacked them and called byzantium it was a difficult war but i got like 3-4 ottoman provencies then conquerod caucasus aq then had to convert to islam cuz i wanted to ally the mamluks allied the mamluks went on a war against the ottomans lost never touched trebizond again
@@ilsmaniactv3936 its very hard to even deal with intern problems because you lose stability like every 2secs and your Economy is Like the worst in game
ilsmaniac TV yeah I tried to play trebizond yesterday again, had like 150 dev and most of caucasus at 1498 and was allied to russia, but the ottomans attacked and instant stackwhiped my whole army. I ragequit and wont ever load the save anymore :D
You've mastered the algorithm. Every list video ends up in my recommended.
Thanks for watching! I think the secret is massive text thumbnails and >10:00 video duration.
Ternate is such a comfy playthrough and was even moreso when it had its extra colonist. Conquering your neighbor Tidore, then picking off the Sulawesi trio, and moving on to Brunei and Majapahit all while colonizing the Philippines, was just so good.
and many province in phillipines has trade goods gems and after unlocking mill it will gives fortune, not to mention the extra 15% tax that can be optimized by increasing the tax dev. the malayan countries are filthy rich.
Also easy to change to sulawesi culture so you can form Malaya
I wince at your pronunciations despite not knowing much German. But I agree with your list
bunte kuh
@Cheetah Man LUBBIC *screams*
I can't really blame the guy. German pronounciation is hard for native English speakers (even though you literally have to say it like it's written. )
@@martinhorvath4117 But it shouldn't be hard! English speakers just don't understand the umlaut. It's not difficult to use the long vowel for an English speaker.
Try the Japanese, he fucking said NIPPEN instead of Nippon eughh
Byzantium can into OPM
Byzantium can into No province minor

@@oscarword775 thanks. As a leftist I must praise our daddy and god also we live in a Society
@@mikeoxsmal8022 yes we live in a society
When he first said Lubeck I was like "wait, Lubbock is in Texas"
I'm from Texas. Oops. Guess it shows!
@@AlzaboHD Awesome! Best state in the Union!
Texas is featured in the next video, it wont dissapoint!
@@AlzaboHD Cool! I forgot Texas could form in EU4
Migrating to Cuba as Carib IS fun. But you know what's more fun? Declaring a no CB war on an Incan nation, vassalizing them, then using their territory and claims as a foot step to conquer and reform into the Incan Empire with Carib's ideas and Intil religion mechanics. Nothing beats 5 colonists (6 if you have parliment). Getting 4-5 Military while the Incans are still at 2-3 thanks to migrating and showing strength against your starting rival and having +10 force limit from the native building will get you there.
Its just finishing the Intil reforms before Spain murders you which is a problem. :P
This dude sounds like an old cars seller
That would be an awesome job! Thank you for watching.
"This bad boy can fit so many Ideas in it!"
@@MrARCN7 xD
Thanks for the video, I'm definitely going to have to try the Aungu, Ternate, Carib or Caddo just for a change of pace
I wondered when ternate would turn up. It is soo freaking good being able to always rush an appropriately sized enemy
He had to ban Ulm from the list because it's too powerful, every spot would just be a Ulm.
God, I remember my Taungu game from like a year ago! I allied with Ayyuthaya and Bengal, formed a massive triple alliance, and began to eat into China post-Mingsplosion (I'm poor and don't have all the dlcs at all, rip)
I probably would've had the achievement too, I expanded so fast
I think the game updated and the save got lost :c it was my greatest game
I love how the entire time he's explaining why trebizond is powerful, he's just getting absolutely cucked.
Why am I watching this? I have never booted up EU4
just recently happened to me and after a bunch of videos ive now started playing.
but.......but Ulm!
me: Lübeck is probaly #1
Alzabo: On number 2 ist Lübeck.
Damn, so close.
Lübeck always gets all the attention, glad to see you also mentioned Hamburg.
Personally I almost like Bremen more, but thats just because Hannover is one of my favorite nations.
As a Texan, I find your pronunciation of Lübeck absolutely glorious.
What does being Texan have anything to do with it
Steven Brock wtf is that
You mentioned Oda, but personally I prefer Date and Shimazu. They both have insane ideas as well.
I really love your videos. You have such a nice and calming voice. ;D
I was considering adding Shimazu to the list - I couldn't decide between them and Oda! Thank you for your kind comment and I look forward to seeing you on the next video.
Haha, I can totally see why you'd pick Oda tho. How do you think Date compares?
Date's development, core and idea cost reduction along with their diplo rep and infantry combat ability are quite good. I'm not a huge fan of reduce AE though as it becomes just a number fairly quickly, especially if you pay tribute to ming to avoid coalitions entirely. The heavy ship idea also seems kinda weird. I like the technology cost reduction and trade modifiers though! Date seems pretty powerful but I think Shimazu and Oda are a bit better.
@@AlzaboHD When you expand outside Japan and meet British/Spanish fleet, you would know why Date idea works even better than ideas of Oda and Shimazu. I use Date idea in my current run. Britain is hostile toward me. I move my capital to Aleutian islands so that I can open trade companies in China, Indochina, and India to avoid corruption penalties from too many territories. Now you can stack Date's heavy ship cost reduction with unique building from trade companies, which means by the time I destroy the British fleet, each heavy ship only cost me 35 ducats! I also took quality ideas and stack heavy ship combat ability and durability with the bonus from Date. I managed to assemble a fleet with more than 100 heavy ships at 70% of the regular cost,25% extra durability as well as 20% combat ability to deal with colonizers. But if you take Oda and Shimazu ideas, life won't be easy to deal with the Armada and the Royal Navy.
Shimazu also starts with a free core on their neighbor Hyuga and are surrounded by OPMs they can eat as they wait for Ouchi, Yamana, and the one with Nara to fall apart.
Just tried Caribe, and wow, what a cool way to play, glad you recommended it. Currently ~1600 and I'm a great power fighting with colonial greats for the US.
Best of luck with your campaign!
@@AlzaboHD thanks!
@@jzl4646 how did it go?
i realy do love Top 10 Videos about Eu4
Comments like yours keep me going! Thank you for watching and being an awesome person : D
It's always nice to find someone looking at EUIV without doing shitty facecams or other lame gimmicks. Great vid!
Thanks for the awesome comment and for watching. I'm not a fan of face cams, I totally agree.
The list helped me very much I started an Hamburg Kampagne and managed to firm Germany by 1800
"It's up to you if memes can become dreams" this man just earned himself a sub
“My tribe was able to build the worlds largest metropolis in a savage wasteland in less than a decade.” This is why a lot of people don’t like the development system
That's why i like it. If the AI would use it tho it would be even better
To be fair though, Tenochitlan was a bigger and more developed city than London in 1444
@@dylanroemmele906 yeah but all Britain had up until the 17th century was sheep and rain, of course London was historically small
@@josephgilboy6259 Yeah compared to Mesoamerica, the british isles were a backwater, if not 3/4's of Europe, save for the a few cities near the Mediterranean like Constantinople and some Italian cities.
It's a bit confusing when the -0.02 monthly war exhaustion is praised in this one but criticized in the "worst nations" list. Either way, thanks a lot for these videos. They're a hoot and a half to watch. :)
As a guy from Trebizond, i like this video💁🏻♂️
Trapezous*
Or Trabzon if you like a spice of Turkeys.
Bu arada selam Türk olan bir insan
how dare you disrespect god emperor ulm you heathen
I have +3 tolerance of heathens
Interesting, thank you!
My God, these are some of the worst pronunciations, usually I wouldn't mention it, but there's just so many in one video.
I think I pronounced "The Knights" correctly! Thanks for watching.
@@AlzaboHD the only word what made me laugh was "bunte Kuh". Because this was completly wrong pronounced, but the rest was pronounced like someone outside of Germany would pronounce it and I can't blame you for that 😉. But I don't have any idea how to write how you pronouce Bunte Kuh. You can pronounce it:
Bu-> of Bull
nt-> of n't (e.g. don't)
e-> of episode
But I don't have any idea how to do this with Kuh. But as I said I don't blame you for pronouncing it wrong 🙃.
Edit:
Kuh-> like cool but without the l at the end.
Axel Muller so "boont-eh Koo"?
@@wythore u instead of an o (more like you would say the u like ultra). The problem is that it is so hard to write an english person how to pronounce a german word.
I'm glad someone one else noticed.
Man after seeing this video, started a taungoo run and it's fun AF, the mission tree is maybe as powerfull as the byz one, though i'd recommend converting to hinduism
Holy shit my most recent EU4 campaign was precisely with Ternate, I'm at the start of the 17th century and I already control most of modern day Indonesia, parts of the Philipins and almost all of Australia and New Zeleand colonized. I didn't know how powerful it was when I initially chose it, I just wanted a peaceful colonization game with little to no competition . Surpised it's the #1 OPM you chose!
hamburger ideas oooh mann.. they must have some kind special sauce
Playing as Tidore/Ternate is absolutely insane. I remember forming Malaya through it - after you whack your islander rival, once you capture Luwu and Makassar you're just as tough as say Majapahit and can easily gobble Sunda.
I would have added Lucca to the list.
As an Italian state you get very quick access to the Renaissance, +2 Papal influence so you get considerable religion bonuses and can expand into some of the most developed provinces in the game. You eventually have the option of forming Italy which has some good national ideas.
Plus you can go for the Lucky Lucca achievement which is a fun one.
I used Ulm to form Germany and get the Early Reich achievement.
Memes aside, the weak ideas and traditions really start to show through in the mid game and I got repeatedly stomped on by the Brandenburg proto-Space Marines. Had to make lots of allies and adopt the Soviet strategy of just overwhelming them with hordes of cannon fodder...
Well done, I actually descended from King Desmond
What program do you use to edit your videos? Your videos look of a similar quality to Reman's Paradox, and I was extremely suprised to see only 10k subscribers!
Hello Adventurer32! Thank you for your nice comment. I use Sony Vegas to edit and record. You comparing my videos to Reman is quite the compliment! I hope he returns to YT as I love his videos.
I had a game with a friend. I was vijayanagar. He was augsburg as his family comes from there. When I finally met him. He literally took over almost all of the HRE and was in constant war with Europe. Massive debt from all the mercenary armies he had to raise but if he needed money, he would just start selling off provinces to take them back later
Nice video! :D
Grazie!
Great video. Subbed
Thank you for watching and for your sub! Cheers
I played a ternate game back when they had +1 colonist instead of +1 dip. It was awesome.
as desmond, at my height, i had all of ireland, half of scotland, greeblabd, iceland, the northern islands off of scotland and the notwegian coast.( i would lose the notwegian coast and all of scotland minus the islands soon after but amazed)
With Carib you can migrate to Central Americas get the Mayan religion and become really OP.
I love these videos
I love Oda ideas. They’re not quite as strong as certain sets (Prussia, Mughals, Yuan, etc) but it really doesn’t have any bad ideas. It says a lot that -5% tech cost is probably the worst one on there
I’m surprised there’s no Navarra, I’m in the middle of playing a navarra game (not Ironman, I’m not cheating but I am saving and loading sometimes) and Navarran ideas are great, and it’s in a good position to start a large colonial empire, including an idea giving +20 global settlers. I’m still in the play through, and so far I colonized the almost the entire Caribbean, Louisiana, some parts of Africa to put my navy, the Phillipenes, Taiwan and the spice islands, and some other minor colonies. As for the mainland, I took all the basque land and bearno and argamanac , and I recently broke into 8th on the global powers list
Navarra is a great OPM! It was tough to decide which nations made the list but I think if I could go back I'd replace Trebizond with Navarra. Thank you for watching and good luck with your campaign!
AlzaboHD thanks, keep the good eu4 videos up
Navarra will lose coastline which is nerf :(
How were you able to survive the early game? I lost like 6 times and then gave up.
Thesupermrluc both Britain and Spain allied me, they were pretty unstable as they were both domineering sometimes but whenever they broke the alliance they wanted it back later on.
Ulm-y a meme?
Ulm is all.
Ulm is life.
I Once Started A Game As Bavaria, And Right Off The Bat, Ulm Had Atleast 125% Of My Income.
Always refreshing to see other people understand the power of Ternate.
Most of the time i pick a fun Tpm nation.
Suggestion for the next video:
Top 10 Tpm's
Tpms would be a great idea. Either that or mid sized nations ! Thanks for the recommendation
Do you mean a two province minor or a two hundred province major
@@maltvinegar436 Noone starts with 200 provinces at game start. Even Ming only has 138 provinces in 1444 if I remember right. So not really much ambiguity here.
@@heavenwatcher100 fine tone hundred and thirty eight province minor
@@maltvinegar436 LUL Nice try.
Good video
Thanks for watching. Now I'm hungry - I love Pizza and your username!
I didn't know that Lubbock, Texas was in Germany. I'd always assumed that was where Lübeck was.
To be honest Germany did own Texas in real life as a colony and lost it
I used to think OPM stood for "OverPowered Minority"
Jews be like
Played Oda cause of historical events and also the Nobunaga's Ambition games. Then realized how chaotic everything gets after a few seconds of playtime.
The Knights can be really interesting, but hard to get right
Oh comrade the Germanic language is not for you is it. Ü = OOoooooh sound looooooooobeck x
Guilty as charged - I don't speak a word of german outside of "Guten Tag". Good thing I apologized in the video haha
@@AlzaboHD If you think of ü as y you will do much better. Lybeck with the y pronounced as the y in gladly is probably close enough for most German speakers.
@@AlzaboHD ü = y, u = o, o = å (like in oar). ending a word with g can sound a bit like k /ˌɡuːtn̩ ˈtaːk/ and t as d.
there's a reason the rest of the germanic language group slowly left german phonetics behind in favor of more consistent pronunciations ;)
Nah, I like Lubbock better
Even though I don't speak a word of german, people pronouncing Ü as U annoys the shit out of me
Ragusa is interesting as it starts guaranteed by Ottomans.
Ragusa is great! I once formed Croatia as them and conquered the balkans. Thanks for watching.
I think Date and Shimazu ideas are also very good. For rapid expansionists like me, Date idea is arguably top3 among OPMs along with Oda ad Desmond.
Date Ideas:
Traditions:
+10% Infantry combat ability
+1 Diplomatic reputation
Ideas:
−10% Core-creation cost
−10% Aggressive expansion impact
−10% Idea cost
+10% Land fire damage
−5% Heavy ship cost
+10% Heavy ship combat ability
−5% Technology cost
−10% Development cost
Ambition:
+15% Global trade power
Why does your map look different from mine? The borders and colors i believe look so much cleaner in yours. How do i get it also?
Hello Tigran, you can download the graphical mod that I use here : steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=253263609. Thank you for watching.
Although maybe not an overpowered opm, I find Ramazan to be quite enjoyable as an opm. Good national ideas with a nice starter with 5% dicipline and -20% core creation cost. A capital that can spawn an institution pretty fast, unlike it's northern trebizond neighbour. Can usually get help from the Mamluks to attack the Ottomans with you, if you choose to expand more into Anatolia, or vice versa and expand into the Levant area. And last but not least.. who doesn't like the colour they start with?
I was expecting to see Albania as an Honorable mention, Skandenberg (forget the right spelling) is such a powerful general and deserving of a mention.
Skanderbeg. Yeah, I think that, after a certain point, his reputation won battles by itself. Legend.
Hisn Kayfa is also a very good opm.
I don't know why, but I've been playing a lot as Trent and either trying to survive or expand from there. I'm rather new at the game, I've only 120 hours, but I played my first, 3rd and 4th game as them with the 4th being in Voltaire's Revenge.
My first game sucked, lasted until the end but lost a war to Venice, and to some random African country I tried to take over (didn't know you couldn't take land if you declare war on someone else's land) and then Austria decided to end me in 2227.
Next time was better, I got land from Venice to allow me access to water, which then allowed me to defeat Iceland and colonized Greenland, as well as taking two African Vassals, an improvement.
4th game is different as in VR2 Trent is actually rather large and that clearly changes up the vibes, but have so far managed to annex 3 other OPM's on my border, have gained 2 provinces from Venice and 3 from Tirol, so the expansion is happening finally. 4th largest army and have among some of the upper levels of development and economy due to focusing on having all my provinces up to 30 development to get as many trading posts and church's out to get my money strong early, as well as pumping along institutions. Was at 12 military while my neighbors were at 18, but by embracing everything and having high development along with economy, I was able to level up my tech rapidly to being ahead in just a few years thanks to my ideas I'd unlocked over tech unlocks. So much tax and trade income along with being able to have the manpower and army size of Bohemia while being 1/3rd the size. 99 Ducats a month income means I can have max level advisors to just max out techs and when I catch up, bolster my development even further. I own the Venice trade node now basically lol It's probably the opposite as to how other players choose to play, as I've seen online that many don't focus on buildings, and I'm out here with 13 Provinces all with 6 buildings each.
yo can you please make top 10 most powerful provinces in EU4?
Ulm isn't the best one province minor. *Change my mind*
Ulm has memes. Get ready for the ultimate atack of '' I changed my mind'' :D
KAAAAAMEEEEEEHAAAAAAMEEEEEEEHAAAAAA!!!
I play in Japan a lot and kinda ignored oda a lot holy hell I should have been playing them this hole time
Same I always played as Uesugi just because it has 3 provinces at the beginning and not so powerful neighbours. But when I saw Oda in this video I was like "nothing makes sense anymore".
@@axelmuller7946 Date and Shimazu ideas are also insanely good.
@@heavenwatcher100 but uesugi does not have any good ideas compared to date 😣
@@axelmuller7946 Yep. Uesugi wastes too many idea slots on army tradition which player can obtain quite easily. It's also not as useful as the discipline in late games. By the time Uesugi expands outwards, it has no core-cost reduction, Diplo-reputation or reduction on Diplo annexation. It does not have a trade, colonist or naval buff either that makes colonial competition easier.
@@heavenwatcher100 you are completly right. I mean it doesn't matter when you form Japan but to do exactly this, Uesugi is not a good choice. When I played as uesugi It to took me more than 200 years to form Japan and by this time, my only choice was to take the expansion ideas and try to colonice if possible. I think other countries are better to form Japan.
Would you consider Jan Mayan as a OPM? Don't they start off with one province when they spawn :P (if they spawn)
Love your vids!
I think Jan Mayen starts anywhere from a 1-3 province nation: I've seen them spawn at varying sized. Dude I love your videos too! Keep up the awesome work thank you so much for watching.
"Bunte Kuh" means "Colorful Cow"
I like Theodoro. I didn't see them. They have some nice ideas...and Goths.
I waited to see Ulm and was not disappointed.
Regarding Carib what DLCs did you play with? I have Carib separated from Arawak by an unsettled province and no rivals available. Thanks
6:11 Playing Hamburg in leviathan is fun as hell, managed to become an OPM great power though then my game kept crashing past 1780
Paradox should do an expansion that is just Ulm being the most powerful nation in the whole game
I was wondering if you were going to mention tidore. They are by far my favorite opm to play.
Tidore and Ternate are practically identical! I forgot to mention this in the video, oops. Ternate is only marginally better as they start off with a slightly stronger ruler. Thank you for watching.
I will say that I am surprised that Hisn Kayfa wasn't included in this list. While their initial starting position is poor, their ideas are great and if they can secure an early alliance with the Ottomans they can expand rapidly and easily become a leading great power
how did you manage to migrate into the habana as the carib? because the land separiting the islands has terra incognita in the middle
As Ragusa. Protected by the Ottoman Empire, i was able to ally them. And after two wars (Byzantium and Karaman) of the Ottomans i had enough favors for using them as offensive power. With that i was able to push to the northwest and after a while i was able to join the HRE, if the Ottomans would change there mind.
You pronounced Lubeck exactly like we say the city of Lubbock in Texas, don't know why but it made me laugh.
Im from Texas, guilty as charged
@@AlzaboHD Lmao should have known.
Can't wait for the Big Ulm Update.
You pronounced Eíre so wrong that it made me cringe 😂☘️🇮🇪 good video though mó chara
Thank you for your nice comment! I'm notoriously bad at pronouncing different languages and will look into how to pronounce Ireland right now lol
Isn't it pronounced Ireland, without the land?
Liam O'Connell no
Liam O'Connell it’s more like air-a
Henry Chan yeah that’s how u pronounce it
Ulm is OP because it has a secret passive effect, it creates a desire in the player to create Ulm human nation making it the strongest to create the one tag achievement.
Lübeck was funny to play and to form Germany, just messed it up by not feeding my vassals more and so I had a despotic ruler instead of the trade republic.
Didn't see the video yet, but already left a like!
Thank you for the support and thank you for watching! Cheers
Hmm sounds good. I will definitely try those especially those in America.
I've already tried a one province nation: Makassar. I wasn't huge in points but still did pretty well. But around 1700 I was kicked in the ass by a Spanish-British duo because Spain wanted to colonize Australia (what I almost did fully). After I lost that war the others came as wall to take what they can't at my full power.
So that game simply became a disaster only in some years.
nice
Thank you for watching!
I tried the Caddo strategy and just couldnt keep up with the demand for manpower/money anymore. If you have badluck the nation owning the province you need to convert can switch before you reach it. and since its not a costal province you have to conquer your way through it meaning you have to fight 2 wars against the residents who tend to have networks of alliances/vassals. What will likely happen is that your declaration of war tips the balance of power and a chain reaction of war declarations on each other will follow, resulting in a big mess of everyone trying to vassalize each other and vassalising someone means you also inherit his wars. So even if you finally border the needed province, someone could vassalise the current owner while you war him and drag you into another big war. The tech-advantage is great but you still have losses and they add up in time, you cant be idle either since you have nahuatl.
as cariben on new patch cant migrate over the terra icognita to reach havanna and so on ?
