That's power of the near east mountains for ya
Would be interested in a Tall Persia run with Infrastructure because there are so many synergies (fort bonuses in mountains, construction cost reduction, cheaper trade upgrades and most obviously, dev cost reduction)
This run will be a mix of tall and wide :). 400 dev clicks already by the end of this video (just skanderbeg also considers dev from events and holy orders as dev clicks, so these are included).
@@ZlewikkTV I’m always in awe of your ability to manage mana to play tall while expanding like crazy
Honestly I was surprised at all the culture conversion modifiers it gets. Seems like an EZ 1 faith 1 culture tag now to rival Bohemia.
Haven't had a single game where Shirvan doesn't ally Ajam around December 1st and where Ajam decks me after taking Biapas, then if you manage to win that war against Ajam QQ and AQ join in. Feels very impossible atm.
I had to do about 10 restarts before I could finally make it past 1450 without dying. Shirvan tends to ally Ajam ~60% of the time, but if you go full war economy + merc spam, you should be able to win even against both of them.
Idk how it's really a problem, as said in a video, you have to simply adjust to setup around you. I saw 4 different setups in 5 test runs.
Defeating ajam and shirvan is really easy, even in my run I defeated Ajam and Biapas while being after first war, while attacking them just 1 year and 4 months after game start. Did you see me complaining abour fighting Ajam, 2 subjects and their ally? :p Nope, Ajam is shit in 1444 :), same for QQ, they run out of manpower after 2 battles in your mountains while you base your strength on mercs.
The only difference some alliance chain might cause is simply amount of loans you need to win, but long term it's really a minimal cost if you scale alright
Absolute awesome run bro! Well polished and played. Ardabil is really fun this patch.
The legend himself is here🔥
I love how in the most recent updates most of the new mission trees have some good ways to add development (Japan, Korea, China are good examples). It's fun to build up a super high value core territory even when you're blobbing.
1 hour video on a friday? We‘ve been blessed!
I needed like 20 restarts, because they always got a strong ally (Biapas even got timurid once) and Qara always declare on me after 1-2 Years. Now after I managed to beat all 3 (couldn't take much of an defensive war against Qara), every Nation around me got like 40 - 50k Troops with Allies. (Ajam always! (in every restart) allies Nogai, AQ and a third nation in the first few months).
Obv. it's doable, but it's surprisingly hard. Ludi said in his Ajam Video that Aradabil is easier, and I have no clue how. Definitely the hardest "new content" nation in this update for me.
ludi is a dirty cheater and the run you see here os also after a lot of "test" runs.
I did 5 test runs sir and died only in the first one. Ardabil is all about 1. Stacking right modifiers 2. Commiting 3. Fighting right battles/sieges
With these 3 combined I'd say you can be 70% sure to survive and succeed early on. Moaning about initial alliances doesnt matter as I didnt see a chain that was undoable
when you heard Zlewikk twice at 26:40 and think you lost your mind for a second
oh no
30% morale of armies from the get go? Wow!
This is the way
35% morale actually, since being Shia also gives 5%
The bois are really inspired to establish a new Persian Dynasty
Oh nice just what I needed. Was about play as this nation for the first time. 🙏 thank you for the tips
55:19 another -5 % is from a decision called Islamic center of Scholarly Learning, you need a ruler with Diplo 5 to take it.
It were Shun that got the trade efficiency while you get the imp relation bonus from that mission form how I read it. :)
How many restarts to get shirvan to not have an alliance with ajam
This is what i love about zlewikk
i see him getting a great heir, and sees why it look suspicius
But after watching so many hours of his gameplay i have no doubt that he just got lucky
It's tradition at this point to pointlessly change Fars's color
These missions look great, actually really excited for the dlc
Wow an hour long video ! Thank you !!
Thanks!
Great stuff 👏
Chyba najfajniejszy kraj pod grę tall w tym momencie ta persja. Znaczy zawsze była fajnym krajem, ale teraz przez te dodatkowe bonusy jest jeszcze lepszym . One culture, one religion +20 deva w każdej prowincji
This video is blessed, i love this so much!!!
I've done a minimum of 20 games, Shirvan will always ally Ajam within the first month, Ardabil is basically a kick in the balls to play since there is no way to expand.
I said it pretty clearly in the video, I did 5 test games and I saw 4 different alliances setup early on.
You cannot treat this video as a step by step guide, but rather guidelines. Use the morale resources I presented + mercs and you can win in any setup.
If not Shirvan then go for Biapas. If not Biapas then go for Ajam. But in EVEEY of test runs I did I could go for either Shirvan or Biapas. Ideally these two can ally which I also saw happening
@@ZlewikkTV I am not dismissing what you said nor saying it's a bad guide, I'm just giving my take based on my experience, I've tried other expansion routes and Shirvan seems to be the only meaningful area to expand into but due to their choice of allies being almost exclusevly Ajam, getting an opening to attack them is very unlikely.
Just Ajam should not be a problem since you could use it to take cores in the same war. You have insane morale advantage, just levarage it togwther with mountain fort.
So if Ajam has just Shirvan then dec on Ajam and separate peace Shirvan first. If they have more allies then you might consider making Shirvan a primary enemy
@@greas1233look, you want an easy W? I got the strat for you. You restart until Biapas has no allies until 11 december. Then you drag Gilan into the war and go stand on your core until your qizilbash are done for the mission. You merge your armies and go on Biapas’s capital (Gilan will attach to you once you go in). As soon as you 100% Biapas, you wait for Ajam to dec on them. You vassalize them, force religion and take back your core. Gilan will join you vs Ajam in a defensive war. Ideally you would also ally Mushasha day 1, this way they join too, making the war even easier. You sell titles, get 1% loans, recruit mercs and fuck Ajam, taking your cores and 100%ing them for money, war reps and alliances. You take the mission for religious CB right before the peace deal and them you use it vs Shirvan who is not allied to Ajam anymore (or you leave the alliance to reset truce, depends). After being done with Biapas, Ajam and Shirvan, you go QQ, who will by then be dying to a 20k pretender stack. Key is to take Tabriz before the pretenders enforce, as their 20k will them become QQ troops. Then you hope Timi hits weak ajam and starts bordering you for you to use the religious CB. The world is your after that😉
Oh please continue this!
You looking fly today! Nice shave. Love your videos :D
Nice! I just tried this start a handful of times last night and was like….nope…. Need a guide. 😂
Oh man i cant wait to try Persia myself! 🤩😍
Is there a chance you'll play on the Ante Bellum mod in the future?
Our weekly reminder that Zlewikk is better at EU4 than us 😂
Oh damn, 1 hr episode! Christmas came early
1h and preview!
that 14 ducats+ after restrict production is the real deal, top notch delicious click deal
Formed persia in 1470s as ardabil but ofc the game i play in Persia is the one game where the ottomans only expand eastward
Seems like it would be good to save the mission that gives you a super heir until after you've got an old ruler with a crap heir.
Pretty sure that was an event? Dont remember now
The amount of save Scum for this start is unreal
I have tried to use the "Guidelines" but everytime Shirvan allies with Ajam and i get the same Power Dynamic. I just end up dying.
Not qizilbakh, qizilbash which means “red head” in turkish
Such a cool video! I love the new love the middle east got!
we should add "it's fine" counter :D
Dayum , talk about aggressive playthrough
When should I restart my ardabil game? I usually attack biapas first, since shirvan mostly allies ajam. Most of the games baiapas doesnt ally shirvan either, so I usually wait for the right moment to attack shirvan and ajam at the same time, but it's very cost expensive
Sounds like a pretty op country if you can survive the start. Wondering if this will be the best multiplayer nation or is it only single player op tag
Its a bunch of dev cost if you can survive early
I wanted see your SUFFER. Bring me THE BYZANTINE
What is the banner mod you’re using? Can’t find it in any of your video details
Jesus Christ this was so aggressive campaign.
I am calling the police sir!
Just getting started!
Didn’t even know this country existed
Nice
How do you get the estate general decision?
Your videos always brighten up my day, thank you.
Really glad to hear that :)
Is it always best to shift consolidate your troops in all cases? I know for battles it’s best but like, what if you’re just sitting on a siege?
Yes, in majority of the cases. It does not impact siege itself, but it impacts assaults as hell.
One situation where you might want to avoid it is when you have like 30/0/30 stack and after battle you have like 20k infantry left (or less), then if a new battle starts you might want to avoid consolidating as your artillery will end up on the first row.
Yellow Fars gone but not forgotten
2 days late but I know it'll be a banger!
Might it be good to create new technology group for Persia and some central tag I Asia?
For Persia it would especially make sense if you became Zoroastrian, it's strange to be in the "muslim" tech group despite not being muslim.
So fr what I see it's supposed to be you can invite to sphere from anywhere, and can enforce religion from anywhere to then invite to sphere, so you can ignore AE by enforcing religion on Austria for example then invite them to Persian influence since I believe HRE doesn't give debuffs to invite to sphere, and bam you got an Austrian vassal in europe
Yeah, the big limiter it dev of a nation, even with 13 dip rep it's hard to get medium sized nations
Sadly I already have the achievement "this is persia" ;-;
Would have been a cool run
Well, there is still King of Kings achievememt to be done
Shirvan gets an alliance with Ajam every time I try to follow this guide.
I said it pretty clearly in the video, I did 5 test games and I saw 4 different alliances setup early on.
You cannot treat this video as a step by step guide, but rather guidelines (also said tgat). Use the morale resources I presented + mercs and you can win in any setup.
If not Shirvan then go for Biapas. If not Biapas then go for Ajam. But in EVERY of test runs I did I could go for either Shirvan or Biapas. Ideally these two can ally which I also saw happening
@@ZlewikkTV Od wczoraj jakieś 50 restartów (jak nie więcej) i ani jednego bez sojuszu shirvanu z ajamem, nawet jeśli wbijam w biapas, to wszyscy na około mają takie sojusze, że ciężko coś zrobić dalej. A nie, była jedna gra gdfzie podbiłem shirvan ale biapas ale ajam we mnie wjechał i skończyłem jako podbity bankrut
@@MrMajkelon zarowno Ajam jak i QQ sa w chuj latwe po pokonania. Masz 1 wiecej morale i fort w gorach. To ze ktores Cie zaatakuje to nie problem a ZALETA bo nie musisz walczyc z ich sojusznikami.
W nagraniu dobrze widac ze wygralismy z Ajamem i sojusznikiem praktycznie na poczatku. To sa mega proste wojny z mercami i takim morale/gorami

@@ZlewikkTV In my runs Ajam and Qara Qoyunlu attack me every time.
6:03 how do you zoom in the interface text? or was this the video editor's work?
Just video edit
Also without dlc mission tree now I guess thia is impossible. Everytime QQ attacks me at 1446 mark. So what made this miracle run possible?
I wonder how many restarts it takes on average to get 11 pips general, 40 tradition equals 3-11 pips if I'm not mistaken.
This was the only run I recorded. 4 test runs before (all with pretty good results except first no matter the RNG) with usually good generals.
People in this game are really overthinking the RNG, which for decent players is really jjst a difference of having a good run vs. a bit better while for some people it's like 'the rng is the only way to survive', which is just not true :)
There should be event to incite Shiite revolte friendly to Ardanil in nearby Shiite provinces. The third feudal theoretical button should allow receiving nearby Shiite exiles just like Cossack countries. The red heads should be recruted with mil points. Otherwise, what's the point of the title King of Kings?

Zlewikk 57:50 nice manpower ;)
I was thinking it was an Arbadil run as anyone who truly wants to roleplay should play as them but I wondered why they are renamed to Iran so I doubted my guess! (In context to the screenshot preview)
Honestly, I am mostly excited about Zoroastrian Persia.
I am curious what will the religious revolts look like.
Iran is the real name
Because Iran is the real name. Persia is a Greek name, and it only refers to one region in the south of Iran called Fars
@@safs3098 ah I didn't know that, I thought they were just known as Safavids
@Juggy747 Safavids were the Dynastic name which historians use because every Iranian empire since forever was called a variation of Iran or Iranshahr.
I think during Safavids it was officially "The Sublime State of Iran"
Support comment from me because of ardabil
I tried this twice and had both Ajam and QQ attack me by 1447
By 1447 you should already defeat (or ending the war) with Ajam :p, which makes QQ war fairly easy since it'a defence in mountains while having far superior army.
Also, they base on manpowee which is low while you have mercs ao over time you completely drain their army
@@ZlewikkTV guess my seige rolls were bad. I was just finishing off the shirvan war when they attacked, a war I declared on Dec 12

Impossible? I just did it after it came out
Part 2?
Already recorded. Waiting for video editor now
@@ZlewikkTV I shall thank you
Ya, how is QQ not declaring on you ever?
They did not in any of my 5 test runs. I dont see a reason why they would when I have 1 more morale and same (or bigger) quantity of troops. A small advantage of going so much over FL.
In most of test runs I went after QQ before Timmies, but here I had an opportunity I had to grab.
@@ZlewikkTV in my last 8 tries they do before I get to siege my first fort! XD
I mean, I beat them, but it's just very costly!
Is there something I do not know about rerolling game starts?
All my starts have been very similar. If all your starts have been very similar and different from mine, does it mean our restarts don't necesarily re-randomize everything?
What's your morale and quantity of troopa by the time you declare? I dont care about re-rolling since RNG is part of the game
Also a sidenote, QQ attacking you is actually not bad since you can beat their ass easily and you do not have to fight their allies (which would happen if you attacked).
Now that I think about it, I believe that I actually had one game when it happened so it's just a simple defense on the mountains and a blessing if played well.
I was very clear stating this in the video that I've seen so many eaely alliances setup on the region that you cannot treat this video as a step by steo guide, but rather guideliness.
@@ZlewikkTV I'm getting all the quality modifiers that are available, war declaration is 1445 so I don't get that much chance.
Basically the first mission, and the advisor (well rulers also has the bonus for moral and Ardabil starts -100 piety.)
True that getting declared on means an easier war than declaring. But you got to keep in mind most of QQ's diplomatic relations are tied up with vassals anyways.
The war would get so much easier/cheaper though if I had two forts and a safe province. Which taking over Shiravan would provide. (oh BTW, 100% of the times for me Shiravan has Allied Ajam!)
RNG is kinda interesting to me, it's like different chess openings (more like different starting setup :D)
Every now and then when start a game I save a specific starting setup because it has opportunity for funky results,.
I think this is a bit broken.
I think PDX Tinto's 1.36 is 95% content stolen from Europa Expanded Mod
Wait, let me get this straight. So if you go down the shia Persian path you basically play tall by FORCING everyone around you your culture and your religion and then making them your vassal?? Correct me if I'm wrong.
Yes, will show more of that in part 2
@@ZlewikkTVThank you Mister Zlewikk, the Persian influence thingy seemed kinda complicated at first 🙏
I feel scammed. I have rerolled 10 times and every single time Shivran is allied to Ajam. QQ and Ajam bukkake me every single time.
And how is Ajam-Shirvan alliance a problem? It's an easy war with mountains and morale of armies :p
If you watch carefully, you will see that I attacked Ajam and it's ally 1 year and 5 months after game start. Was it any hard? :)
@@ZlewikkTV If I don't start war on Sirvan December the 11th then Shirvan gets another ally of AQ.
I finally got it working. Got lucky that Shirvan didn't get any allies and also declared war on Biaspas. Destroyed Shirvan first taking cores and then fully sieged Biaspas. I sat on provinces until Ajam declared on Biaspas --> took core from Biaspas and vassalized them, putting me into defensive war against Ajam without any allies.
