I support pirate domance of the mediterranean coastline, all costal provinces or ones surrounded by only coastal provinces for the run really simple and has colonial possibilities
Also, fun fact: the chains in the coat of arms are there because after wining the battle of 1212, the king of Navarra took the chains of the slaves the Muslims had in the city and took them back home. Look it up if you are interested.
I love your reaction about getting the achivement. It was basically the same as mine when i thought "Basque in Glory" meant all of Iberia converted to Basque. Good video. Keep up good work. ^^
Have the biggest navy in the world as Naxos (or own all islands in the Mediterranean) because the island of Naxos is where Poseidon first met his wife Amphitrite, goddess of the sea.
Even if you had called Austria to your war against Naples Austria could still declare war on you when it comes to the Burgundian succession, it’s super weird but that’s how it works.
And it even removes them from the war against Naples. Tbh, this mechanic should be used more often, cause it could make wars way more realistic. Just because you are fighting some dudes in India together, England wouldn´t just ignore Spain conquering all of Portugal f.e.
I did this achievement just the other day. Very fun run! I even took the pu over Aragorn in the event - north Africa was my friend for a long time. Looking forward to seeing how your run goes
Red Hawk, separatism is an unrest modefire in a province that decays by 0.5 a year. You can see it in the list of unrest modefires a province has. It usually starts at around 12 right after you conquer a province.
Keep your friends close and your enemies a five year truce away from declaring war on you, I believe is how the EU4 saying goes when it comes to allying future enemies.
I really like it how you just subtly sneaked your way into basically yoinking the political role of Castile from them, replacing them on the European political arena. Aragon PU? Nope, that's mine. Naples? Mine. Burgundy? Mine again! :^)
For someone who struggled to plan out culture conversions and didn't even check the requirements for the achievement this is still a pretty impressive run. Navigating bullshit alliances of your own while facing bullshit alliances of your foes is always difficult and giving up the lowlands to make Burgundy loyal and not die to Austria was pretty smart. Btw you might already know this but seperatism is displayed underneath unrest as an additional amount of unrest in the province. It's why Humanist's reduction to seperatism is so good, it's essentially -5 unrest in new conquests since each year of seperatism is +0.5 unrest. And yep annexing subjects and retaking cores does prevent seperatism from spawning though I think annexing subject provinces with seperatism still would, at least conceptually.
So proud of you from Pamplona/Iruña (Capital city of the old kingdom of Navarra)👍👍👍, as the end was a bit anticlimactic at least you didn't spent half of the run wondering why in the mission of the mission tree you have to conquer Munster in Germany to go colonial (in fact you have to conquer Munster in Ireland 😀)
Definitely one of the most interesting a to z so far. For Naxos, I think it’s be cool to avenge the Spartans and try to conquer all of Greece and Persia
Super quick guide on separatism. Without any modifiers a newly conquered province have 30 years of separatism. Each year is equivalent to 0,5 unrest. So, each year separatism will decrease, and the unrest from separatism will decrease along with it. The way to track it easily is simply to look at the unrest, look for the separatism one, and multiply that number by 2. That is how long separatism will last. This also means that fewer years of separatism = less unrest. So, if you go Humanist you get -7 unrest in newly conquered provinces (-5 from -10 years of separatism, and -2 from -2 national unrest)
12:17 That Basque Naval Doctrine is INCREDIBLE! while the Marines bonus, is not as good as the other countries that specialize in Marines (which are super-fun, with naval supremacy, you roll-in, conquer, and roll-out, before the enemy ever touches you)... The Basque Naval Doctrine give you explorers and conquistadors through a Naval Doctrine! Normally, one only gets those through Ideas or Traditions... If Navarra can survive until 1455, it can keep pace with Portugal in colonization.
I cannot believe that, I could swear when I did the achievement it was : all of Iberia but there was no time limit for that, if I'm right and it has been changed I'm gonna be pissed 😂
Two ideas: 1) Well Naxos islands were one of the first footholds for Persian army to land in Greece in 480 bce soo maybe conquer the Persia region 2) hence Naxos is a crusader state, re-establish the Latin Empire, own and control Rome and Jerusalem (or maybe this will fit better the knight's)
To give you the TL;DR on Cesare Borgia, the Borgias were a Spanish noble family that managed to work their way into putting a Borgia on the Papal seat, and then proceeded to be very violently corrupt. The event you got is probably the result of the Papal State kicking out the Borgias, and Cesare fleeing back home to Iberia.
I set out to do this one a few patch's back, I think just before Emperor came out. I thought I would fail, due to the Age ending, but a few things delayed the institution spawning, so i had about 10 years extra to finish the conversions. By that point I Iberia under control and France & Poland under PUs... Was gunning for HRE Emperor but never managed to get it before the End date.
Is that a better strat? I'm thinking about starting a campaign myself, I alos thought it would be better that way. So should you go for that does it impact AE too much?
@@filipgrujic6165 IMO the easiest way to get this achievement is to fall under a PU with Aragon and declare an independence war supported by France. You can give France Roselló and Girona to keep them as an ally, but then take a province to release Catalonia as a vassal and use favours to get the cores back. Then just use France to help you eat Iberia. Also, taking offensive and humanist ideas will give you -15 years of separatism so you can culture convert faster
im not sure, but morale damage seems to be a stat which determines the rate of how quickly the enemy's morale bar depletes in combat. correct me if im wrong.
Yup. It's an interesting modifier. If you already have a ton of +% morale bonuses it becomes pretty good because it's a separate multiplier, and defensive morale becomes less important once you already have high morale. But the 10% by itself is a bit meaningless
That’s what I understand it to be as well, in this case of 10% it’s similar to a 9.1% morale nerf to your enemy. (1-(100/110)) I believe is the corresponding formula to find the equivalent value.
Without the -25 percent annexation cost from Diplo it would be much longer to annex Aragon since the cost is additive. Consider you had -25% from Diplo, -5 from gov privelge, -10 from influence-quality policy, and -15 from the mission. So annexation cost was 45% of total instead of 80% of total, so it would have taken 1.78 times longer to annex aragon. 12.5 years instead of 7 years to annex. That would have been 660(12 months per year*10 per month*5.5 years) diplo lost, reducing the amount of diplo you had to culture convert, delaying the conversion for Aragon's Province, and making you significantly weaker militarily and economically for 5.5 years. So weaker advisors, fewer wars, and slower conquest of iberia.
Burgundian inheritance as non-France/HRE Emperor is based on province count, whoever has a royal marriage and the most owned provinces becomes the option
Dont know if anyone has said, but Im presuming getting the general Cesare Borgia is something to do with him going off from Italy and doing his own mini war in Navarra? Thanks for teaching me that Assassins Creed 2! :D
Since you won't be making any guides 'till 1.36 releases, why don't you make one video where you choose one of your favorite nations and just have fun. Your videos are way better when you're having fun and enjoying the game. Like with Estonia. ❤
Yeah PUs are only good for low AE gain, but that got nerfed a few patches ago. Nowadays, they're good for vassal swarms (Austria) or colonization (GB or Iberia). Otherwise it sucks. Like Lithuania giving orthodox autonomie. No vassal income. AI smoking some crack during wars. 50 year integration limit. It's better to have normal vassals or outright conquest .
PU-ing Aragon is really not worth it because of your relative strength. It's much easier to own the land directly (if you can PU them you can defeat them anyway).
I'm playing as aragon, its year 1549, but both the option to form spain military and diplomatcally are not showing in the national decisions. I had my capital on the low lands to prevent the dutch revolt, but i've moved it back to barcelona and still its not avaible for me to click. i checked al the requirements and its everything ok
I'm 100% sure that in ye olden times it was actually all of Iberia. Must've been changed to most of Iberia after the expel minorities mechanic was changed, since now you have to spam diplo points for culture conversion.
If vassals don't give you separatism in their provinces after you integrate wouldn't vassal feeding the Iberian minors most of Castile and then integrating let you massively speed up by skipping separatism?
Wait, how did you not lose Aragon PU since they were disloyal and the ruler died? @edit Anyone experienced in EU4 please let me know i struggled with similar thing and i've Pu'ed a nation 3 times due to they breaking out of it, got tons of AE and more and more penalty to trust and relations with this nation (Naples in my case)

Perhaps go pirate as Naxos and conquer all Mediterranean islands. Bonus points for choosing the pirate reform that disallows getting allies.
I support pirate domance of the mediterranean coastline, all costal provinces or ones surrounded by only coastal provinces for the run really simple and has colonial possibilities
As naxos become saxon
I second becoming Saxon as Naxos.
True. Naxony is a good idea aswell. Or perhaps, Pirate Naxony.
Hawk just casually getting Cesare Borgia as a general. The son of the Pope, and generally one of the most corrupt families of the time
But a Chad militar
AC brotherhood time
There's actually a whole set of events related to the Borgias when the Pope is allied to Iberians.
And very good friend of Machiavelli!
One of the most BASED families of all time
That ending was really funny and anti-climactic, and as Naxos, conquer Saxony.
Oh yeah because Naxos is Saxon backwards!

Realest Navarra guide out there!!
As naxos, form the latin empire via the crusader mission tree and make the ottomans migrate back to the steppes
So proud of you from Pamplona/Iruña (Capital city of the old kingdom of Navarra)👍👍👍, as the end was a bit anticlimactic at least you didn't spent half of the run wondering why in the mission of the mission tree you have to conquer Munster in Germany to go colonial (in fact you have to conquer Munster in Ireland 😀)
Oh man, I see Cesare Borgia escaped Ezio to flee to Navarra.
As Naxos, become a pirate republic and convert to Judaism
So happy Hawk got Labourd, would’ve bugged me to no end if he didn’t
As Naxos capture all the islands in the mediterrenean including venice, also great video!
RedHawk currently under investigation for being a member of the ETA

For Naxos, re-enact the odessey and the illiad : conquer Troy, Own Athens, get Rome and idk what else I can't remember the exact story
Naxos, even more difficult start than Navarra. Good luck with that one!
As Naxos own Stockholm because the word Axe is in Naxos and Scandinavian vikings used axes
This video highlighted what a mouldy yellow colour Castile is, seeing it contrasted with Navarra's radiant gold
I cannot believe that, I could swear when I did the achievement it was : all of Iberia but there was no time limit for that, if I'm right and it has been changed I'm gonna be pissed 😂

Holy moly ravioli it's been 2 years since i last watched 1 of your videos and i shure didn't expect a face reveal
i thought it used to be all of it. lol. nice work.
I think you are right that it once was all of Iberia to Basque and later on got easier
As Naxos, form the Latin Empire, convert the Anatolian Region to Catholic
i think you should have taken 2-3 provinces from Aragon in the PU war to get them more loyal
Is that a better strat? I'm thinking about starting a campaign myself, I alos thought it would be better that way. So should you go for that does it impact AE too much?

Separatism is directly tied to the unrelated modifier. It is -.5 per year meaning your remaining years of separatism is the understanding modifier x2

No way he pronounced ‘Juan’ as ‘Juh-won’ lmaooo
That's wrong for Castilian, but actually closer to correct for Catalan
So do we think it's better going humanist for the years of separatism reduction than religious or nah?
Historically, Navarra survives until it gets a PU... with France.
So the result is that you were not supposed to PU Aragon. That's bad decision.
Yeah this achievement is quite hard
