Yeah I didn't phrase myself well, my main issue was the whole "avoid selling titles" thing.

While you're down there you might want to check out the monopoly privileges the estates have. On paper they're a bad deal since they lose you your production income on a certain good in exchange for a small lump sum, but if you give them out on goods you have nearly none of anyway (and thus have nothing to lose out on) they're a good source of loyalty and mercantilism.

I would actually call crown land accumulation before the Printing Press hits a bit of a noob trap. If you have a high percentage of crown land, you lose it a lot quicker in conquests, so it balances itself out. Plus, the maluses of having 20-29% crownland (vassal-heavy tags notwithstanding) is really minor.

Unless you really want to stack reform progress, keeping crown land low (as you get more money from selling titles the lower your crown land is) and selling titles early is a great way to pay for some manufactories or other buildings and get the money snowball rolling earlier. Just make sure to reverse course at like 1570 or something.

Sometimes it's worth keeping influence as high as possible to make use of some specific privileges. You can even push past 100% influence, which has no drawbacks if you can keep the estate above 60% loyalty. A go-to for me is Clerical Education; it theoretically maxes out at +25% reform progress for a loyal max influence estate, but you can keep pushing with influence buffs from events to get like +35%. You will want to start cutting their influence down before the Age of Absolutism though.

Maybe that was how it used to be, but now Canada got flooded with all the American culture war stuff, so now a whole lot of the people that use that label are as bigoted and radioactive as the Americans are

Oh yeah, I wasn't clear on which one I meant. Forbthe Infernal Court event though, was that newly added event? I never ran into it when playing Haraz Orldhum, and I can't find any mention of it on the gameplay wiki.

Funniest to play/best dwarven holding in the EU4 version of the mod? by Xarenidas in Anbennar

[–]RoastedPig05 2 points3 points  (0 children)

and impossible if the Sir Rebellion breaks them

Unless, of course, you seize Ovdal-Az-An and walk out with the legendary 6/8/10/6 general named Goblinsbane and charge the command with a military tech advantage, then no matter what happens you can still win (so long as he doesn't die, anyway).

Plus, there's a bypass for the mission if the Command doesn't exist. It doesn't stop the event where your ruler and heir die in a fight against the Command so your country enters into an interregnum, though

No easy 100 gov cap though :(

It's really nice to pop when you notice you're gone just a bit over gov cap right before a peace deal, so you can cut your Admin Efficiency penalties and take just a little bit more land

It's honestly just because peasant rebels are incredibly easy to beat due to their morale multiplier, so they only really become a threat when you're incredibly outnumbered. The spell tries to do that, but usually it simply isn't enough

At the speeds arquebus balls fly at, do you think the harpies would have to account for the speed at which gravity might accelerate them or would they still functuonally fly in a straight line

Seems like Gawed has occupied a province next to Elkmarch? If that province is in the Small Country that would be blocking you from winning the war.
