There are a ton of forts in the Indian subcontinent. So as long as you can get past being an OPM, just conquering all of India is the best way to get the achievement.
@@monx94 If I recall correctly from my recent Vijayanagar>Bharat game, then yes. Even if there aren't quite that many, you can definitely easily afford to build up to 52 by the time you own all of India.
Gelre, despite being a dutch nation, has their capital in Geldern (in modern Germany) irl. so as Gelre, form the Netherlands, then culture shift to Rhenish or Westphalian to form Westphalia (iirc the netherlands wasnt an end-game tag, if it is, form westphalia first then form netherlands)
This was seriously tough. Garwahl starts with one of the worst provinces in the game. The fact that you managed to expand at all was seriously impressive, even if you ultimately failed your goal. Maybe this is a challenge for Laith/TheSocialStreamers as he had better luck as Beloozero than you got. As for Gelre, make them El Rey of Spain.
In the province of Gelre, there is a nice little town called Berg en Dal. So, as an ode to that town, conquer the neighboring province of Berg, and the province of Dal in Norway.
For anyone attempting this achievement, I highly recommend opening with Innovative then picking up Defensive and Infrastructure plus the government reform for castle rights. Altogether this should reduce cost of forts down by 80%.
Honestly? This is why I don't like playing in India. It feels like the three to four nations always out pace you in terms of expansion or alliance networks so you run out of areas to expand so quickly it hurts
India is the most easiest location to play in eu4.Agressive expansion is pretty much non existant due to different religions and cultures.And the war in india so common .There is a delicate balance which you can easily flip.
Gelre has gel in it, but the term "gel" was coined in Scotland. So as Gelre, claim your origin by conquering Scotland. But given that gel doesn't get coined until the 19th century, you're a few centuries too early to cash in on this and may go bankrupt.
Out of curiosity, why didn't you attack Delhi during its war with Sirhind? You could then vassalize for a defensive war and a bunch of potential cores.
For Gelre: After that many episodes in A to Z, the standard HRE game or forming the Netherlands again (especially with the best nation to do that coming up) is getting repetitive. Do what nobody else has ever done ever in the history of the game before: Fully decentralize the HRE. And people, if you try to comment that you've done it or seen a video of somebody doing it or your third cousin has thought about doing it or that it is a legitimate strat or that you've even done it using cheats: Liar, well, I believe the last one, so cheater ;). So please keep those fantasies to yourself
... Doesn't Red Hawk like to keep the A to Z videos relatively short (in game-time/in-game timeframe)? Pretty sure fully decentralizing the HRE will take too long for an A to Z video.
@@maelos61 Not really if you get a solid power base and destroy the reformation you can finish before absolutism. I revoked privelege as austria in 1580
@@maelos61 becoming emperor and passing the first 3 reforms is the biggest issue (not as in hard, but it will take a couple of years), but just because gelre is an awkward nation for that. I think the challenge in this video would've taken much longer to actually complete.
@@m_uz1244 Okay, but is that really a viable timeline when you start as Gelre? Besides, I'd have to go back and watch some more videos, but 1580 is already pretty late for an A to Z video, no?
Well Gelre is an anagram of Regel, which is german for rule. So als Gelre become the holy roman emperor and make sure that every province that is supposed to be in the empire is in the empire for maximum ruling, yeeees.
This region is so hard. I played a game as Ladakh and while I was always able to /survive/ I was never able to reach a level where I wasn't constantly under threat from Delhi, Timmy, or Bengal. I was only able to conquer pretty much the exact same regions that you were able to (plus a small chunk of jaunpur at one point, though it got taken by Timmy later)
To be fair i made this achievement pretty easy, but was a run only ment to do the achievement. I conquer all of the nepali, tibetan and assamese minors. Became tributary of Ming. Help Ming to fight rebels to prevent collpase end get Ming protecting you. Get all possible ideas to make forts cheaper. Get at 1700 -100 upkeeep. Build 52 level 2 forts.
I think that's one of those achievements i'll never get. Seems painful. You almost got on the right track. If you could have declared on Bengal again after breaking their alliance, i think that would have been the turning point.
Let's see... since Gelre is the modern name for Guelders which looks kind of like the word guilders, how about owning all gold-producing provinces in Europe while being a merchant republic? I mean, sure, you'll have to fight Austria, Bohemia, Castille, Hungary, and technically-Serbia-but-probably-the-Ottamans, but that's part of the fun, right?
I wonder if it would've been an option to use the Bengal alliance to break his alliance with Delhi and declare in a moment of weakness. Though to state the obvious: you don't have to go into India. If India's a no, Persia, China or SouthEast Asia might be options to get the economic base. or if you can reach the sea: indonesia.
I’m not sure how you completely reversed England and France but weren’t able to do this tbh. China even broke apart for you so the expansion opportunities were plentiful.
The flag of Gelre contains 2 lions facing eachother, but there are no lions in Europe so where did they get those? Rumour has it (wiki) that lions came from Tanzania. So what if... you take the country of Gelre and make them face the lions by owning the area of Tanzania.
india is just insanely hard to play if you're not one of the big 4. during my mysore-> bharat run my only 2 allies against bengal+delhi were ayuthaya and dai viet who could only hit like 1 bengal fort. best thing to do is go straight to the capital of every ally without engaging any armies then white peace them out.
@@pinklasagna8328 easy I allied jaunpur and attacked Delhi and got the provinces of panipat and Delhi and gave jaunpur one province . This is what you need nice provinces, not conquering 3 dev provinces and excepting to beat the big guys.
Yeah the AI literally works against the player now. Allied AI walks off and doesnt help. Enemy AI turns into a pro and focuses the player at all costs. Its dumb.
I think the best would be to expand into Indochina or China. With those alliances the expansion into India is indeed tricky. The achievement does not say where those forts have to be or what primary culture you have to have...

Isnt this the garhwal video? are you gonna do garhwal again or something?

Maybe take the other gold mine up north in chagtai then focus on just going right for bengal. I don’t know. Super rng

Red Hawk: My economy sucks and I have no money.
Also Red Hawk: Annexing countries without taking any money from them.
Gelre is divided in half, that seems rather decentralised, so why not decentralise the HRE completely as the Emperor
He should do that as Mulhouse, because they have an achievement for that.
Gelre, despite being a dutch nation, has their capital in Geldern (in modern Germany) irl.

6:44 the way you said “GLACIER!?” though LMFAO
They should have an objective called Garhwal Narwhal where Garhwal controls Iceland and Newfoundland while having the trading in ivory bonus
Please, don’t give them another idea for cursed achievement

''Dehli's out.
Who's next.
Malwa?
Come here.''
Sounds like a very, VERY threatening declaration of war. I would honestly surrender if I were Malwa

You declared with a diplomatic insult CB. You still could have annexed them...
Declares on enemy, instant rebelliion:

God I remember doing this achievement years ago, I ended up conquering almost all of China just to procure the funds to build all the forts lmao

They could've also just called the achievement "52 Pickup" and made it available playing as any nation.
I did this one, honestly quite a fun achievement imo. Dealing with Jaunpur was the most difficult bit for me.
To be fair i made this achievement pretty easy, but was a run only ment to do the achievement. I conquer all of the nepali, tibetan and assamese minors. Became tributary of Ming.

Try play as Zaporozhye in 1648 and form Ruthenia again, its gonna be extremely difficult
Not gonna lie was expecting you to vassalize Cornwall with this one, still good vid keep it up lad
common W Red Hawk videos
As gelre has gel in the name conquer and form Georgia which has national Currency called Georgian Gel :D
Came for the challenge run, stayed for the dry humour
Love the intros, gets me everytime

As Gelre, become an archbishopric.
First 10 are all my campaigns in a nutshell xD
As Gelre, form Norway! Because why not right? Why wouldn't you want to do that?
You're a legend, you actually did it lol
Being out in the country, is it sad that I can enjoy these videos in 144p and still understand everything going on? Lol

ngl idk that achievement existed, maybe i''ll try it
To be fair , this achievement is pretty easy . That is if you play until 1820 .
Pretty easy achievement. The biggest challenge is the start where alliances needs to go your way. Conquering Guge's goldmine and you are on easy mode🙂
how do you make your map look like that ?? everything is easier to see, the territories etc
It's the top mod on Steam workshop. I believe it's called Graphical Improvement.
thanks :)
