Mad that Gelt gets Mountain climate trait. That and the armour bonus for all troops in all armies makes him the only one that makes sense to start as. And as Gelt you can wipe out the vampire early on and you have the Fealty mechanic unlike Volkmar. Volkmar is fun but only his army benefits, his factionwide ones are kind weak. Franz has okay bonuses but nothing worth taking a 6 turn hit early on to deal with rebels. By the time you deal with those and get north Festus is already established and pushing on talabheim and middenland.
It's always confused me as to why loyal elector counts aren't just locked into a defensive alliance with one another. That's clearly the idea CA was trying to go for, it is a technical limitation or just pure oversight who knows
Depending on the date this game is supposed to play out, the elector counts are often at war with each other, or they have a vendetta going on, secretly hoping their neighbour falls so their territory will be open for righteous conquest.
Im literally at this trap. Im playing AI+ so its harder then legendary and chaos and norska sending army after army. They all united and keep bully me playing war of attrition what I surly lost.

Hell yeah, brother.
Great video, I love the empire but it has always been a tough start.
Is it feasible to forget about the Secessionists in Helmgart and rush to wipe out Festus asap?
