  • Considered to be one of the most difficult achievements available in EU4, the "Three Mountains" achievement requires a total world conquest while playing as the tiny, impoverished island nation of Ryukyu. It's considered to be a true test of skill for the best players in the world. I am certainly not one of those players, so I'm be relying on exploits and overpowered strategies in this achievement run; specifically, I'm going to conquer Kyoto to become the Shogun of Japan and utilize the Daimyo vassal swarm.

    One more "exploit" that could come handy later in the game. You cannot declare war for your tributaries claims, but you can threaten war for the claim, which - if the opponent declines - declares the war by itself. So you can delcare for tributary claim...

      actually, on most occasions, mercenaries are a disadvantage. Admin ideas make them better, but as ryukyu it's always better to train troops, because they are permanent and mercs are not.

      @@duatia5315 I just tried a three mountain run and came close, but failed. I think I needed to be more aggressive earlier. I had 6 opponents left on the map. I had 1400-1500 troops and most were mercenaries. Once you get the spice flowing the cost of the mercs is ok. My Manpower never really recovered due to the constant warfare and mercenaries were the only real option. Had quantity idea group too in the mix.

      From a little googling, the Ryukyu Kingdom was formed from three states, and the period where all three states were independent (although tributaries of China) is known as the Three Kingdoms Period or the Three Mountains period, because these states all had Mountain in their name.
      In EUIV, it also seems to be used as the name of one of Ryukyu's later national ideas.
