    Humorous that you made the spanish charge your cannons while playing as Portugal, because one of the lines of the Portuguese national anthem is literally "charge the cannons"

    Goa should be the most fortified city in India region, to be more accurate.

    Portugal had the biggest Empire for 70 years straight,now is so underestimated!!!
    Portuguese were the first to calculate the tides,with the stars to navigate (thats why we have an Armylar Sphere on our flag),the ones who invented the triangular shape boat sails to navigate against the wind,and the Alabarda!!!

    Oof It's sad for me to say but after playing this game for years I never knew I could move cabinet people around. I always thought they were locked in until I watched this video. I have brought shame onto my family shameful display.

      You can only do it for absolute monarchies though because you have total control. Otherwise all you can do is boot them out and hope you don't get screwed over haha :)

    I loved Portugal in PvP in that. Crap for cav but amazing skirmishers and Grenadiers.

    I know I’m late to the party, but better late than never, rite?
    I practically only play Netherlands as it has land in each theater.
    Since the campaign ends when you lose your last region in the home theater, my thought would to trade the Indian colony to Spain for one of the Med regions. If those aren’t available then Iceland.
    Regardless of what I could trade for, I would sink every last dime in the new area because I am likely to lose Lisbon
    I look forward to how your campaign plays out. Thanks for the content

    Really enjoyed your Pirate playthrough, this gonna be fun, if possible, why not go for a total India takeover.

      Portugal's in a pretty bad spot really, it's inevitable that both Spain and the Indian factions are going to strike almost immediately
      In vanilla you could build fortifications for ~4k (I think?) In Goa and fight to keep it if you wanted but they're 12k in Darthmod so India is a bit untenable. Especially so when Spain decides they'd rather you didn't exist any more 😅

      Portugal, Denmark, USA are my top three factions!
      I challenge you to keep the Brazilian trade nodes and the Guyana territories so it’s like Portugal never lost her gains from the Age of Discovery!
      Anyways, you know I love the naval action so I’m really excited for this series! Great show as always man.

      I'll add it to the list. I run votes when I finish a campaign. I expect Gran Colombia would be very similar to my Mexico one :)

    I genuinely don't understand why you didn't spam out trade agreements very very early on
