    One thing I like about your EU4 videos you’ve made so far is you using historical language like “I reconciled my eastern forces to march east, and March of 1572 I was able to siege ‘SoandSo’” whereas most EU4 channels would say something like “I’m just gonna build some troops and take this this this and some war reps”. The slight roleplay element is a welcome touch in today’s age of brain rot.

    EU4 is the one Paradox game that I could never get into. So it's really surprising how this video was suggested to me and I enjoyed it so much. No unnecessary jokes or dramatic self harm, just a straight forward run by a skilled player.
    I still think EU4 is not my cup of tea, too many decision events, mana points and the old map design of satured colours. But I am probably gonna watch out more videos of this channel when relaxing.

    This is an excellent presentation of your run and I loved every second of it. I loved your focus of what to highlight, choice and level of explanations and pacing.
    First time seeing your channel. No-brainer of a like and follow, which for me seldom is the case for EU4 content creators.
    I've now been watching for an hour straight and I just feel like commenting on something gameplay wise.
    1:00:55 55:58 36:05 I have a hypothesis that AI nations tend to avoid risking naval invasions on islands (or provinces in general) that have a strong enemy navy (relative to their transport fleet) stationed.
    So in cases where you would want your allies to occupy the islands you should try to bait their navy out and sink them. That if given if my hypothesis is correct. So if I were in your situation I would leave a caravel and hide my navy in Constantinople and hopefully be able to bait out their navy that way.

    • @rooosgamingden
      @rooosgamingden  16 днів тому

      I think you might be right. The Knights didn’t have a fleet in Rhodes, so Austria didn’t feel threatened and landed troops. But during most of the Mamluk wars their fleet would get pushed to Cyprus as the mainland ports fell. One of the wars in particular I remember a significant Mamluk stack (22k I think?) sitting in Cyprus which could also very well inhibit AI landings. Thanks for the kind words, and glad you enjoyed the vid!

    You should play for RedHawk’s AnteBellum series. Would be a great way to grow your channel especially if you can do stuff like this, I’ve never seen before. I love this way of playing EU4.

    In the first war, the Ottomans were never outnumbered - the only numbers that matter are what you can bring to the fight and all of your allies were waffling about all over the place.
