Updated Austria guide would be neat.
Oh great,just what we need.Another Brandenburg guide.🙄 ☹
Serbia.
Tuton guide
Either playing with Timurids to form Mughal or Aq Qoyunlu/Ajam to form Safevids/Persia please
I know denying the 6/6/6 required a lot of restraint
That hurt just to watch! I contemplated disliking the video right there :(
It did
@@TheRedHawk I mate thank you for the videos I was doing your guide for England 1.33 and I managed to become the most powerful nation. I managed to get a 6,6,6 Queen Elizabeth as my monarch
Defintely need that Teutonic Order video! Right now is the most fun I've had with the game with that mission tree! (Especially the crusader path)
Teutonic order is now first choice for forming Prussia early.
13:00 true pain and true dedication to the guide
It is why I love his guides.
that hurt my heart
**switches the god heir bc of future hunting issues
"if youre watching this and are an experienced player youre watching this for entertainment and this guide is based" - Redhawk definitely in context quote
Awesome Guide.
A Guide for the Teutons would be nice too. But i would LOVE one for Lithuania.
You really grind these guides out and they're always awesome. I appreciate that your guides do not rely too much on RNG/save scumming and explicitly point out when you rely on it.
Thanks for this one Red Hawk! Would love to see a guide for the Teutons! You explain everything clearly haha
The problem with Teutonic Order guide. Is the branching mission tree one really need two videos. But in my opinion the order is the best role play nation as of right now. That would be fun if we could see the hawks villain side and Dues Vault.
Exactly, when i watch a ludi video i dont know what the fuck hes saying
Didn’t get fate of neumark until April 1449, I’ve restarted over a dozen times
One of my favorite Brandenburg moves is to get tha half-price subject transfer age ability, and swipe Thuringia off Saxony.
200 dip for what, 4 maybe 5 provinces? Transfer subject is great, it allows you to take up to 200% warscore, but you pay out the ass in the peace deal. Naples, Sweden, Bohemia... why Thuringia?
@@ThelonousIt could be worth it if it's less aggressive expansion then directly taking the lands.
@@Thelonous you take AE on War Score Cost... so the "half-price" also means that you get half the AE for doing it that way (I generally don't care about it for Brandenburg but that is my go to move playing Holland to steal Barbrant & Flanders from Burgundy extra cheap AE-wise)
think bigger than that, if you have the age ability and have completed diplo ideas (which you should pick as one of your first 2 idea groups), you can steal Sweden from Denmark
@@psychic_beth can't steal Sweden anymore... it's a fucking nightmare dealing with them without being Denmark able to reduce/remove all the malus that Sweden gets now to their liberty desire.
I think the game gave you that 6/6/6 heir to fight super Poland and Teuton’s big allies lmao. Poor Red Hawk sacrificing that for our guide.
As a newer player, i was eyeing prussia after following your bohemia and naples guides. so thanks for this.
Can you do an Oda/Japan guide next?
Hey Hawk! Something i meant to ask you for a bit now is if you could make something like a "follow up" video on some of these guides? After years of playing this game and watching youtubers like yourself i feel like i am extremely well informed on how to go about the early game on whatever nation is being highlighted in your guide but i dont think i have have ever seen even a single video showcasing what the 1600-1800 have to offer. Of course i know this is for a good reason: Making videos about those eras sounds hella time consuming and work intensive and almost no one even plays up to or during that time. Also most guides will leave whatever nation is being shown in a state from which you can steer your game in pretty much any dircetion. However i think it would be pretty interesting to see once in a while how a playthrough could look like if one where to continue to laser focus on expansion and optimization. Just in case you ever find yourself out of ideas for a video! :)
My computer limits how late into the game I can play lol.
@@bert3241 yeah lol, up to 1550 at max speed my game is somewhat playable. After 1575, sometimes 1600, at max speed it takes me a minute to pass one month :D ,, autosaves take almost a minute XD
Please do a Teutonic Order guide! I suck at this game and ur guides are very helpful haha
I spent two hours referencing guides, probably watched the first part of this video three times, finally the fate of neumark, let's declare war.
Huh I don't see their troops maybe they're on this island... sweet, almost a stack wipe, let's finish them off... wait why can't I move?
Why can't I move?
Oh god they didn't take their ships out until now... did the AI just... do that on purpose?
God DAMMIT I'm on ironman _ALT+F4_
One of those nations it always comes back to in EU4
Love you guides!
Would love to see a Novgorod into Russia guide in the current patch.
Seconded.
I hope you talk about Byz and what’s the best idea groups to take for it.
Would love to see your spin on a Teutons guide, fueled by cigarettes and malt liquor.
Bet
Do a Three Mountains guide next, there is no recent patch guide anywhere on TH-cam. Just a thought, thanks!
Instead of taking 4 provinces each war with Bohemia you can take all of Silesia and then release Lusatia. Lusatia will be small and friendly enough to immediately diplo-vassal.
I think best way to form Prussia is starting as Bohemia, invading Saxon lands, turns into Saxon culture than expand for Prussian lands. This way your base power is so much stronger than Brandenburg. My way is like this at least
how is this supposed to work if austria is allied to literally every single neighbour you try and fight
Ah Brandenburg planning to ally Muscovy in order to attack Poland from both sides. A classic!
I did ally Muscovy in my current Brandeburg-Prussia-Germany run, and I even got my dinasty on their throne by luck. Germany with Prussian mechanics and a Russian PU is going to be unstoppable.
I've summoned my diet so many times, but I still am obese :(
😆
Love the Videos man, you got me playing Eu4 again! A Japan guide would be pretty awesome.
Why not wait to get one stability before giving out the cheaper advisors? Or it isn’t meta anymore?
It’s still meta, but waiting until you have enough admin for one stab, and then remembering to go back to your estates is too much work and so people just give out the advisor privileges first
PSA: advancement effort edict buffs your Insitution SPREAD. Not institution growth! Will be quicker when the province/state has the institution, but if a province does not yet have an institution, advancement effort does not speed it up - just the spread from one province to another
Don’t forget if you don’t swap to Protestant right away you get less AE for fighting protestant nations. Usually it’s good to swap once you have most of Germany so you got the low AE and when you swap most of your land is Prot anyway!
That's underhanded and treacherous. I like it.
Love the vids big man
I appreciate it!
Yo, Hawk, what’s up with your crown-land not being 30 after the land right?… Bruh. You could’ve seized every 5 years
Also, why not dismantle?
It’s weird I’ve noticed he doesn’t seize crown land a lot in his guides but if the estate’s opinions are all above 50 I don’t see why you wouldn’t do it
@@NopeNothingD9 nah, fuck their opinion. Nowadays it’s all about those sweet 50% for the reform progress growth. And 30% for no debuffs. What’s 3-5k rebels every 5 years for an army with 10% ICA. Nothing. Saying from experience after just playing Brandy => Prussia => Germany
Your money situation worsened not because you lost the emperorship, but because all your provinces are the wrong religion after switching protestant
Thanks for posting this i was using the old guide lol
You know Hawk, sometimes it's good to give your audience something unrealistic to strive for, like a 6/6/6 and a PU over Burgundy.
this is unbelievable fishy, almost nothing works without having to reload 20 times..
Ally Muscovy and attack Poland from both sides? Classic German move :D
Great guide
My favourite Brandenburg campaign actually wasn't one where I formed Prussia, but where I instead went for usurping Austria's position as HRE since the +.1 authority bonus is way, way better than the +10% Austria gets.
Prussia hre emperor too easy
so i got the neumark event at 1450s on both tries. what do? get gud?
21:00 Hey, I've seen this one, it's a classic
Guide really lack adressing the issue of governance capacity after turning into Prussia.
do you consider playing Victoria 3? I'd love to see your guides there
I just watch them for fun because I don’t own the game soooooo
I want to see a guide for riga forming prussia :D
I vote for a Kamchatka guide
I got fate of Neumark I'm 1455 only reason I didn't quit is because I got emperor in like 3 months from the start
Pls teuton guide
Just as well you declined the female event heir, you wouldn't have been able to claim the imperial throne
Ironic, you can gain Special Prussian Tier 1 government regardless of any religion other than reformation Christians, unless you finished the Prussian path as Teutonic Order at any governments (Monarchy, Repubic, or Theocracy)
please do a guide for Kazan or Great Horde
Is lions of the north good to have for a Brandenburg playthrough? I rather not because it would just make the countries around me stronger. Does the dlc offer anything to Brandenburg?
Your guides helped me a lot to learn how to play this game and practice listening in English, I watch them all. Thanks!!!
A to Z are the best ....
A to Z is great and funny also
Lol, in my game, Austria inherited Burgundy and start a war with the France 💀💀💀
“Just a little bit luck”
I would like to see a Teutonic Order into Prussia guide. Most of the videos out there since the patch have focused on the holy horde route.
u defeat poland and u do the last mission u can and then u click the prussian option, u instantly become prussia, but dont get the gov reform but that is a plus
edit: you can later ofc get it too, also dont pick admin cuz once u finish ur mission tree u get a modifier in ur capital which gives 25% gov cap but doesnt stack with admin ideas
edit 2: oops not rhineland i think, but at some point u do get it
5/4/3/3 "He is not that powerful" 🤔
Personally I feel like if a lucky event happens you should take the good option in these guides because everyone will have to base their game off their own rng and no campaigns are the exact same. Some people will be even luckier than you and others won’t have as much luck.
In my brandenburg game i was emperor flipped to protestant, as well as the majority of the empire so i could still continue to be the empire
I nearly rage quit this whole thing cause in my first war Wolgast got condittieri from the Teutons which made the war 3x as hard
Can you make a guide on how to form the Mongol Empire in order to get the "Khaaaaaan" achievement?
Which mods do you use?
I need to turn off that feature that prevents you from picking up same idea groups in succession?
In my game Poland took half of the Teutonic Order in a war against Denmark while I was taking Wolgast. Is my game basically ruined since I won't be able to keep escalating claims now that Poland is blobbing right on my doorstep?
You should finish the war with Wolgast before the truce between Poland and the Teutonic Order finishes (december 1449). Then you should immediately declare war on the Teutonic Order yourself before Poland does.
Very good guide
Glad you think so!
>reject 6/6/6 heir to keep guide fair
*Unfathomably based*
Hello, would be nice to have a full french mission tree guide till the end game
Brandenburg is one of the great nations to fight a few Humiliation Wars in the beginning... let's you tech up ahead of everyone with +600 mana points from 2 small nations that will cease to be rivals anyways.
@Serbon Resurrected thanks
Why did you disinherit, though? Did you not want Ansbach and Bayreuth?
Great guide as always, but holy cow that was a lot of unskippable ads!
34:30 classic Poland getting partitioned, even when they have Hungary
Hey hawk if your 1.33 Hungary guide still relevant?
Oh, one other comment (well after the fact), innovative with offensive is totally awesome: your siege bonuses cut through forts like hot-knifing butter.
Budget Monk does a video on the power of this (combined with Espionage).
16:50 How did Poland take uncorable land in Bosnia?
if you had got the girl you couldn't be the next emperor...gg
LIVONIA ORDER
"Classic way to form prussia"
Am i the only one who almost only ever forms prussia as denmark??? no? only me? ok
Thats heresy lol
Bro how do you always post the nation I want to play😂 thanks !!
Thanks forgo this one Red Hawk! Would love to see a guide for the Teutons! You explain everything clearly haha
Thanks forgo this one Red Hawk! Would love to see a guide for the Teutons! You explain everything clearly haha
my heir was a 1/2/3/1
A Russia guide for 1.34 before Ludi I’m shocked! You are right though brandenburg still best way to form Prussia!
Pls make another ottoman empire guide for new update thankyou!
define "Best" cause teutons are so much easier and stronger xD
just yesterday i asked for a guide for brandeburg 1.34, thanks lol keep it up
is a dlc needed for the fate of neumark it just never happens
Thanks forgo this one Red Hawk! Would love to see a guide for the Teutons! You explain everything clearly haha
Enjoyment and a few tips/tricks is why I watch, yes; so keep at it.
Have found that vassalizing the Lower Saxon countries is very viable (Luneburg et al.) which helps with the gov cap and add points. The two vassals in that area I let live much longer than ten years for the extra force limit and gov cap - I tend not to go the Emperor route.
How about doing a country in Southeast Asia or in the Indian subcontinent to "spice" things up?
Peace out.
Unfortunately, with the latest cheeky mini-patch, they made centralized burocracy borderline useless, thanks to redditors screaming it’s OP. While it’s somewhat justifiable to change the centralization cost return to 50%, they made the bonuses kinda useless. I really did like the culture conversion reduction and monthly autonomy reduction, but now it’s prosperity growth..
Centralization refunding its cost 100% would have fixed the only real debuff Prussia has (governing capacity), making it way too OP.
"Luck" getting Burgundy, I think you mean your game crashes until you get it
Its currently 1448 and i still havent gotten the event
I was half way through the 1.33 Bradenberg guide and now this came out 💀
I know someone that would argue its Denmark and not Brandenburg into Prussia as best starting nation.
Start as Brandenburg, get the Burgundian inheritance, change your name to Brandenburgundy.
Great vid man! Would love to see Japan guide with any daimyo tbh. Keep up ur work
5,4,3,3 general - "not too powerful" 😆
Day 4 of asking for hawks favourite band
No it's not Teutonic Order is clearly better now
Bruh what happened to Livonian Order 😭
I would be happy for a Timur guide after changes with disloyality in LOTN
The name placement after your war with Poland was so satisfying.
give those knights a spin so hard they'll fall off their horsies :3
