      These guides are such a life-saver... especially for a complete noob like myself. Have or will you be doing an update video on some of these guides? Some of the updates paradox have done to EU4 seem to have tweaked certain mechanics etc. For example Tier 4 in the Government reform no longer has the Administrative Free Policy perk. Either way keep up the awesome work.

    Thanks for this useful guide, the reform that gives -10% min. autonomy in territories can be great for countries like Portugal that tend to have lots of territories/trade companies, as it effectively doubles income from those territories and can stack with reductions from State Houses and Trade Company buildings etc. and governing capacity can be managed with State Houses.

    Three small things. Plutocracy make you loose the estates. The tier 3 reform that you recommend make you loose the election system and therefore a bunch of MP and you only can choose it if you are a Plutocracy. I would reccomend plutocracy only if you want to play a Merchant republick tbh. I am not saying Plutocracy is bad or you are wrong however,

  • @vartosu11
    @vartosu11 3 роки тому +9

    Noteworthy things you omitted that can be quite overpowered if known about:
    Theocracies have different tier 6 reforms depending on your tier 1. For clerical state they're meh, but If you went monastic state, your tier 6 "open public elections" will allow you to upgrade government rank up to empire, get 20 absolutism, 10% stab cost reduction and superior states general mechanics where both militarists and theocrats rule for life, you don't get stab hit on their death, they generally have great stats and you get awesome bonuses(militarists boost manpower recovery and give 15% warscore cost reduction, while theocrats give true faith tolerance, +2% missionary strength)
    ***This makes theocracies the strongest government type in game in my opinion. Max absolutism admin efficiency + -20% warscore cost discount from diplomatic idea group + -15% militarists bonus + tier 8 "One State Under God"'s -30% warscore cost vs other religions allows you to do silly things like fully vassalize giant 1kdev countries like PLC in 1 war at only 50ish aggressive expansion cost and 200 diplo mana(max cost for vassalisation), or if you don't care about AE, fully annex them and spit out smaller vassals 'till your overextension is manageable. The only thing missing is getting PU's, but if you're not Christian, it doesn't matter anyway.***
    Tier 2 theocracy reform you can have "mission on the high seas" if your capital is coastal. That reform in itself is so strong that one should move capital just to gain access to it, it gives +33% chance to capture ships +25% fleet limit modifier and more sailors. Chance to capture ships is additive percentage, there is also the 33% chance to capture naval doctrine, every 1 mobility pip on an admiral adds an extra 5% I believe and admirals can have prize hunter trait. Essentially you can get to a point that after a naval battle, any ship you demoralized but didn't sink is automatically captured. Captured ships over forcelimit can be deleted for their sailors back or sold (I always "sell" for 0 big captured fleets to my vassals so they're not useless on water)
    Tier 7 and 8 differ greatly based on whether or not your religion is pagan or not, with pagan theocracies having weaker choices. (important to know if you want to reform as an african minor tribe into a theocracy)
    Eastern religion theocracies (shinto, buddhists, confucian) get a special tier 4 reform "Integration of the sohei" that gives them 5% infantry combat ability and 5% discipline, really strong bonuses.
    Tengri theocracies(meme material mostly) have tier 7 reform giving them extra 15% cav combat and +25% cav ratio, this coupled with the fact tengri with no syncretic faith already gets an extra 25% cavalry ratio allows tengri theocracies to run around with 100% cavalry armies with retardedly high combat ability.
    Both republics and theocracies have a special tier 1 reform called "autonomous swiss cantons", but it's mostly useful for republics since monastic orders are op already. This reform can be seen and selected only if primary culture is swiss, but won't go away after culture switching. It gives +1 free policies which is insanely strong later on(but then again, republics kinda meh so idk why someone would go out of their way for that)

    • @vartosu11
      @vartosu11 2 роки тому

      ​@@raptorhacker599 If you're asking how to become a theocracy while playing a nation in the eastern religion groups, there are a couple methods:
      For starters, you could start as a tribal and become theocracy via reforms. Generally people prefer hordes if given the chance (for world conquests) but if you really wanted, you could do it. Valid nations are the indochina minors like kale and such.
      The tibetan nations get a decision to flip to theocracy once unified, which is also noteworthy.
      The japanese nations are also one of the easier ones to flip to theocracy(or hell, even republic if you want for whatever reason), provided you get the Ikko Ikki incident early. It can only fire after the age of discovery, so you'll likely get 1-2 events before it, but after this you can savescum the game if it gives you a different event 'till the Ikko Ikki pops up. Going open all the way allows for switching to theocracy & Buddhism, but your country is still going to be majority shinto so you'll still be able to flip back easily if you prefer shinto (only your capital will flip buddhist).
      Apart from that, you could also switch the long way through reform points from a monarchy, but I don't recommend it, as paradox doesn't like fun mechanics and if you do reform like this you'll probably manage it close to 1600's and will not get close to the absolutism reforms in time for them to be useful (theocracies are strongest in the age of absolutism, when they can one-shot vassalize giant 1kdev nations once they have all the necessary reforms).

    Nobles of the Robe not that bad, as you think. You can use it with another bonuses (+25 Nobility in Officer Corps, +10 Golden Age, +5-10 Innovation) for boosting Professionalism. You can get 100% extremely fast in Age of Reformation and your 100% Prof and Drilled army with best possible Army Leaders (10-13 points at 100prof) will destroy anyone.

It's 1550s, everything is rolling fine, I'm working towards restoring the Roman Republic and then I make a huge mistake. I choose Parliamentarism. Suddenly I'm way over my relations limit, my manpower doesn't refill as fast as before and I get 1 less military point. It's just stupid.

      Multiplayer wars are just about having one main stack with perfect army composition (only infantry and artillery and both up to the max width) and reinforcing this stack with small troops one after another. They keep the morale high and the battle goes on until one side can not reinforce. After one battle you have normally loses around 300k-1m and if you have the manpower to recruit new troops you can easily win the next engagement.
