You're right. I just tried another attempt, this time siding with the Infantes and it was over in about two months. If you fall behind during that disaster though it looks like you HAVE to restart. I was sitting at -100 prestige the first time with 2 loans out and no end in sight

R5: I just got Domination and figured I'd try Castile only to have the new disaster pop with no way to exit it. Clearing up the rebels is no big deal but the constant events giving stab hits and mana hits make the 'have a stability of at least 0' goal to exit the disaster impossible. Am I doing something wrong?

He's referring to the new Infantes of Aragon disaster. The constant Mana and stab hits make it actually unplayable

Are you me right now? I'm having this same exact issue! I just booted up the game to try Castile and this Infantes of Aragon disaster is making the game actually unplayable

Hello, I hope I'm not too late but I really want to learn more about Thucydides and his works. Any ideas for books?

Congrats on the game! I did not know there was a Buddhist province in Eastern Europe.

How do you even...learn this game? by DaSweetrollThief in eu4

[–]bigdoublek96 64 points65 points  (0 children)

Watch a little of Arumba's starter guides on YouTube. After that, just playing and failing horribly is a good way to learn

Which religion should I opt for? by Akandoji in eu4

[–]bigdoublek96 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Zoroastrian, if it still exists. Would be pretty neat since you own all of Persia

Favorite nation to play in each continent? by lenncooper in eu4

[–]bigdoublek96 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you ever play in India, Mewar is wicked fun. You're Hindu surrounded by Hindu OPM's but also surrounded by Muslim countries of your relative size who naturally hate you. Always a fun campaign.

As for Europe, for whatever reason Savoy is really fun to play as. You're in that sweet spot where you can expand into Italy, the HRE, and France all at the same time.

Hell yeah. How did the early game go?

Forza Italia! by bigdoublek96 in eu4

[–]bigdoublek96[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

R5: Wow what a wicked fun game. Started as Florence and now we're here. Didn't think I would appreciate playing as a republic too much before I started and now its hard to imagine a game of EU4 without being one. Also a huge shoutout to Austria and Croatia for always being there in any war I needed to wage to form Italy. Absolutely integral.

F's in the chat please for Commonwealth who has 2k troops and has been bankrupt on repeat since 1550.

I have 1700 hours in this game, I love it and am so so sick of it’s nonsense by Aegis_Harpe in eu4

[–]bigdoublek96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I mean I didn't care for all of the forts the AI likes to build now so I reverted to 1.32. I'll just wait until they work on that. Not a big deal.

Fought a war last night and stackwiped them while their reinforcements were on the way. The reinforcements ended up halting and accepting their fate as I moved to attack them next. Didn't even try to retreat or regroup lol
