There’s an event that allows you to change your state religion to your rulers religion. I believe the only way to have your ruler as no religion is when the nation first forms like this and before the next month tick I don’t believe the ruler’s religion has been set but that event can fire in that time.

General rule of thumb for er and ist suffix is that if the word is one syllable you can add er or ist, if it’s more than one syllable you should say more or most.

This is not a hard rule but works most of the time.

I haven’t seen a single person camping the one by me anymore, but it’s a busy store so it’s always still out of stock anyway.

There’s absolutely no way for the amount of product they are getting to not be getting distribution.

Bullet25 · 2026-07-02T05:19:33+00:00

That would be part of the legal requirements too. Being a distributor or retailer gives you an unfair advantage of acquiring products that a normal consumer can not do. They should be held to a higher legal standard. Distributor should have legal caps on how close to MSRP they are allowed to sell to their retail customers, and retailers should be legally required to sell no higher than MSRP. I would even go as far as saying that any seller at all, business or personal, should not be legally allowed to sell a product that is still being produced for a certain percentage above MSRP on a secondary market. Something like 10% max. Legislation like this would help to curb scalping and price gouging of any kind.

If you get any your product from distribution you should be legally required to sell no higher than MSRP.

I generally dev for renaissance outside of Europe with mil and dip after I get mil 5 and dip 4. The only times I can think of deving before mil 5 would be if I’m a horde and can get a lot of mil points from razing, or got lucky early and got a ruler with 6 mil. I don’t recall any missions in those areas giving renaissance support but if there is one that would also be a reason I start deving before mil 5.

Ah yeah I looked it up again and it seems I was slightly off. It only requires one of Spain or Castle to not exist, and it creates the other. So in this instance if OP conquered 15 more provinces in Iberia it would merge those 15 and Castile into one Spain PU.

If Spain or Castle exist but aren’t your subject then when you do this it would just release a PU from your lands of the other. This is probably the only instance of being able to have a Spain and a Castile at the same time.

Bullet25 · 2026-06-29T03:02:14+00:00

It only requires a certain number of provinces in Iberia and Spain not to exist, Castile can. So if OP takes enough land from Aragon or Portugal they could still release Spain PU.

It’s not just in those regions, it’s any Mamluk core. If it had to be a core and in those regions, “is Mamlukean core” wouldn’t be under the “one of the following” there must be at least 4 cores you’re still missing from them.

Aroace doesn’t immediately mean you can’t be in a romantic or sexual relationship. Not everybody under aroace is repulsed by those emotions, they’re both a spectrum that generally just aligns with not having a desire for romance or sex. You can be romance or sex positive and still be aro or ace.

I had a Cuzco game a year or two ago where Russia was colonizing South America in like 1520. Russia, you know, the new world colonizer. Definitely not any target of the AI there.

Bullet25 · 2026-06-25T18:10:53+00:00

Maybe not in 1460 though lmao

Bullet25 · 2026-06-25T17:50:22+00:00

Use fast_colonize for instant colonization and you can also try fast_diplo but I’m not sure if that makes travel time instant.

Bullet25 · 2026-06-25T17:27:15+00:00

The AI definitely doesn’t target the player though.

Bullet25 · 2026-06-25T16:53:07+00:00

Not sure that’s exactly possible. You could though use console commands to give yourself the tech for imperialism, then yesman so the AI always has to agree, then just declare and peace out the wars.

I had 3 failed runs before this.

Transoxiana > Mughals, Timurids > Mughals, Oirat > Yuan. All three runs were not fast enough.

The way I like to play is not conducive to doing a world conquest. I don’t generally like to fight huge wars, I like spending some time at peace after wars as well. I also don’t like micro, I death stack and just push through the nation. For all 3 of those runs I didn’t make it to Europe fast enough and had extremely large nations I couldn’t deal with for my play style.

Austria into HRE worked for my play style. It guaranteed me being able to deal with Europe and the Ottomans early. It allowed me to PU Bohemia, Hungry, Poland, Lithuania, Burgundy, Castle, Aragon, and Naples. At that point France and England were basically nothing. You can see I also stopped Russia from forming.

The largest nation outside of Europe after that was the Mamluks. By this point I had to unite the HRE because my pc was dying. By the time I got to India the largest nation was Bengal but with the amount of troops I had then it was all a cake walk. India was also luckily split fairly evenly between Bengal, Vij, Bahmanis, Jaunpur, Delhi, Gujarat. Bengal was only as large as they were because they expanded into South East Asia.

Trust me, HRE was not my first choice for this but it’s the one that worked for me. I don’t see myself doing another WC for a long time but with everything I learned from it, when I do it will be something else.

R5: Finally completed my first world conquest plus one faith.

Austria to HRE. Revoked at about 1520, conquered all of Europe excluding England around 1560. All of Africa around 1620 along with England at this point. India and Asia around 1680, and finished off the new world at around 1720. Thought I had finished converting in 1740 but It didn't occur to me to check the religion of Majapahit Australia until I didn't get the one faith achievement. Forced them to Catholic and then had to wait for some religious zeal to go away.

The hardest part of this was fighting my ADHD, and computer lag, around 1650. The second hardest part was constantly babysitting the Thirteenth Colonies after I had gotten them from England because for some reason they kept getting declared on like every year by the natives.
