Angevin England, Latin Empire, Aragon
For me you should do a guide for burgundy or france, in this region guide will be cool
Angevin England absolutely has to be the next one.
23:40 Portuguese hardcoded to choice exploration ideas. So you can pu it without waiting
I third Angevin england
Keeping Portugal around is so OP, twice the colonists and I'm not even paying for half of them
Remember to not PU them until they get tech 7 and pick explo and expansion, otherwise they will pick something dumb like maritime.
@@pyotrbagration2438 I thought if Portugal had Exploration then they'll always take Expansion, even if under a PU. Is it different this patch? I will admit my knowledge is a few patches out of date
@@MegaMash77 I did a non-iroman castile run a couple of days ago to check the new mission tree and events, I PU'd portugal almost at game start(console commands), maybe it was 1450 at the latest, they picked Admin and Quantity ideas, had to tag por to force the to take explo and expa. Though you could be correct that you only need to wait for them to take the first idea.
the colonist border gore though… i can’t deal
@@pyotrbagration2438 I tried that once and they wouldnt even use their colonists. Its so weird
I see Spain as the "main character" of EU4 since their gameplay is colonialism and European domination, which are the first things that come to mind for EU4
The Ottomans are the main villain
@bum_fozman7068.I think they are both the main characters
UK:
@@whyareallofthegoodnamestaken no.
@@AntiFurry927considering England historically was the most successful empire ever then they are definitely a contender for a main character for this game , the fact that England is one of the recommended ones for the start and not just a beginner friendly start like Castile .
Don't forget Boys: always get nations to transfer trade when attempting to vassalize them. It also gives a relations bonus.
It's your guides to Castile and Portugal that made me want to give EU4 another try now that I have some of the DLC. Keep up the awesome work man!
Enjoy!
Don't do it you will end up stuck in an endless loop of eat eu4 sleep repeat
pirate the dlc, game is too expensive
@@alergames147bro just get the subscription 5 dollars a month
One full hour of Hawk, we've been blessed!
Edit: If you do ally Aragon, you can offer them mil access - they will come help with rebels sometimes!
Worth pointing out that the 1.35.2 patch that came out today reintroduced the "Prepare for Reconquista" mission that gives you claims on Granada.
Oh, it's why in my game i have almost all mission tree completed except "Prepare for Reconquista". I thought it is bug, and this mission appeared after i formed Spain :D
For newer players would recommend switching focus from mil to admin and hiring a level 2 admin advisor. You should have enough admin points banked that you can quickly hit the rebel stacks and stab up to resolve the Infantes event quickly after it starts
In the screenshot, I saw that Austria, Bohemia, and Hungary were personal unions. I’ve been having a lot of trouble catching all three instead of just Austria. Austria generally doesn’t PU any of them anymore.
Yeah it's very RNG. In my game Austria PU'ed Hungary but not Bohemia. Austria rarely goes for the Bohemia PU in my games, probably because the AI doesn't know how to actually get it.
@@saxtonhalegaming I think it has something to do with AE. I rarely ever see an AI take more than 50 AE and IIRC Bohemia is something like 89.
Yup, I’ve seen Austria get Hungary (which might be from the event still), but never Bohemia any more in 1.35. In the last patch they did, but would stupidly also release Moravia for some reason.
Ive seen poland get hungary more than austria has this patch
@@lesabbinateur8462 Actually, I think Bohemia is closer to 50. They do have two vassals which, if integrated, might cause issues but usually you can the PU early. Plus AI Austria has the lucky nation modifier which reduces AE. Plus they are a different culture group. Personally, I think Austria just doesn't know how to manage the electors without help.
When fighting England you can take 1 province to release Gascony which has a lot of cores in France and if you ally France you can just request for them with favors or attack them with core return
The Iberian weding event can still happen if you side with the infantes is the isabella on the throne one that gets disallowed wich makes it easier to get the firs event, but you could get it anyways with a female ruler; also Zui is a trade center in hispaniola that you might miss as well as aruba
The Angevin Kingdom is a fun experience, it was very nice to form in 1 game the crown of Spain, Ireland and Italy. Considering your guides on England start to get old, a new guide on her brand new mission tree could be nice
I haven’t played in a couple years but just dove back in with a subscription to all dlc. This guide was super comprehensive. I managed to pull off everything to the letter aside from the Austria PU because of a stupid web of alliances.
Castile starts with 10 army professionalism. It's best to slacken recruitment until all ten are used up, then hire mercenaries. Also, need a merchant in Sevilla and enable Improved Inland Routes for the siege bonus in Iberia.
Just playing a Naples game and was going so well with grabbing all the greek lands for my Byzantium vassal and expanded into tunis, and iberia with vassal, but it was my ally France with this new update that super pushed into north Italy eating up Savoy, then Genoa in one go each then declaring against my other ally Milan while we were in a winning war against Venice and Spain. Got to love Iron Man mode.
Somehow Aragon became a fucking republic and keeps breaking their PU with me.
Maybe try to find the event file and delete it or make it so that it never fires for AI Aragon?
1 hour?? Oh my god I will have so much fun
Please continue the campaign and also post it on the vod channel the guide has been really enjoyable and I like to see you continue it.
Always take Labourd and Bordeaux. Release Gascony. Low AE provinces from France, quick Europe expansion, creates a nice buffer state between you and Europe for any coalitions.
a little bonus: It's ok to not have Burgundy as PU as long as they have chosen the Emperor (Austria) as their senior partner. In this case, if France rival both you and Austria, and you ally and royal marriage to Austria, you would get a Spanish Hasburg event that gives you the entire Low Countries for free (after the Duchess of Burgundy died event fires). Emperor would always want the entire Low Countries, so you don't have to fight the emperor to keep the Low Countries in this csae.
Ohhh I love the fact that all the provinces in Valencia and the Balearic Islands are properly written. But I don't understand why the Aragonese (autonomous community I'm referring to) provinces are also written in Catalan.
my current run i was hitting everything in stride minimal issues following this guied. was a few years ahead then Aragon turned to a republic, broke the PU, and allied france., who is a completely reformed power house. i guess its time for the slog. *edit* as i went to go to war against Portugal, they have allied france and england, who are both very much rival with each other.
Do you have very hard mode?
I've tried several times and although Burgundy may rival you, improve your relations with Burgundy. They are likely to change their rival in the first month. Sometimes in first year
Hey Redhawk in the new update Portugal is ALWAYS hardcoded to take colonial ideas. You can PU them earlier now
I was going to comment this as well
They are not, my portugal helped Marrakesh to get independed, got JUST ONE province from Marocco and started to do religious ideas.
Same, got also unlucky that they took economic.
You made a mistake. The Spanish Armada reward has a hidden trigger that gives a PU over England (Like Portugal, Naples and Austria) in stead of perm. claims. So far i have not deducted what the hidden trigger is. but i have seen it in my 8+ try runs with Castile.
if england isn't catholic it gives a restoration of union. so if england is anglican or some other heresy
@@no-rd5tn Thank you. and that happens almost every game so it is better to wait with completing that mission.
Did he really just release a 1 hour plus video? *insert moist critical woo here*
got aragon in the 1475ish, isabella 1495. austria took burgundy as junior and inherited which led to a nasty war against them to PU. all in all, managed to get them all by 1497, not easy though :) thanks for the guide!
Followed step by step and was
-$5.05/month before the Iberian wedding fired. How the heck do I make money as Castile?
There are so many tips spread around this video that I think this is about the 5th time I have watched it in 2 days
Taking the Spanish Armada Mission after forming Spain will give a PU Claim on england/Britain
I like how you got Burgundy before France could destroy them and inherited them thus preventing France from dominating the HRE as it seems they normally do now.
12:39 thats not the optimal way to do the event chain.
Its sweaty af but what i do is you take the +1 stab in "fate of..." event, then wait for the torquemada event to fire without coring the provinces, take the +1 stab there as well. then you release grenada and force convert them to christian for the mission. Yes theyll be a bit disloyal but you can just dev them a bit and its gonna be fine when it comes to integrate them.
Its defo worth it as this way you get +2 stab and the age of reformation goal while making it impossible for the war of the arpujarras to fire (thats the negative event that gives you -2 stab if you force convert the provinces even tho you "said" you wouldnt(The event cant fire if grenada exists))
It's impressive how you deliver these kind of videos; count me for the subscriber count
The game literally makes it impossible to win the civil war throwing decisions to lose 75 diplo or 1 stab CONSTANTLY. Had one to support the clergy or the philosopher, both decisions leading to minus 1 stab. I quit at -200 diplo and -3 stab, with zero rebels and zero territory because it was impossible to end the war with the constant negative events being thrown at me constantly. It has happened twice now, i have no idea what to do about it except restart and try again and hope for better RNG. Is this just something that happens with bad RNG? It is so extremely frustrating!
same problem
A grenada or maghrebi nation into Al-Andalus guide would be fun
I still think Aragon is the PU Master. The way I go about it, by 1500 I can have Portugal, Castile, Naples, France, Burgundy, Denmark, Norway, Sweden and often times Byzantium, Brandenburg, the Palatinite, Brunswick, Georgia, Cyprus and Scottland as PUs. It's insane how easy they can get PUs thanks to their neutral position, unsuspecting nature and the fact that they start as a great power.
Then after 1500 other targets like England, Austria and Muscovy are also fairly easy. Plus getting nations from other continents like Ethiopia and Kongo once they flip Catholic.
Dude you basically have the best start fo form Rome.
Portugal and if Lucky Castile will colonize for you,France and Denmark Will be punching bags for when you attack The HRE,Naples for Italy,Byzantum For Anatolia and the Balkans,Brandenburg and Palatinite to vote for you to become HRE emperor For the time being before You coudl form Rome,Scotland For England. Maybe even get A PU over Milan if possible.
@Ahmad Abusamra the Milan PU is a bit harder to do now, but used to be easy prior to 1.29, and yes becoming HRE emperor with Brandenburg and the Palatinite voting for me is also fairly easy. It's a great start! I keep thinking I should make a video for it and share it with Red Hawk so they can try to replicate it.
@@MrBattlecharge Good Idea.
I'm playing this scenario with your help over and over. It's not always easy. Ottomans helping Granada while suddenly Austria decides to free burgundy. It might be tricky. Thanks for great content.
I don’t have the new dlc… and Aragon always becomes a republic
Bro this is sad 😢 either buy dlcs or hack the game somehow otherwise it will be hard without dlcs😢😢😢
gotta love good old france enforcing peace on the naples war lol
Great guide! The longer ones are my favorite.
Great video! I will say it's usually very easy to marry Burgundy even if they rival you at first, just improve relations and don't rival them and they will usually switch to a new rival and marry you :)
Great!
TC the north Morocco state is actually not a bad idea, you wont get a merchant but you can get quite a bit of goods produced in the rest of the sevilla trade node in later ages
One thing that helps in avoiding the HRE coalition is just setting spare diplomats to “neighboring countries” whenever you’re not using them. Worked wonders in my last BB campaign.
By the 1500s I PUed aragon Portugal England Naples, I inserted burgundy and I was fighting the Austrians.
what do i do if i'm always losing a fuck ton of money
PU Navarra is great aswell, you can feed them french provinces and integrate them for free when you form Spain.
You can pretty much do that with Gascony for far less AE by returning most of there numerous cores after you release them.
would love to see an England guide. Also I saw a comment on another youtubers video saying that Portugal are hard coded to take exploration even if you PU them early? Any idea if this is true or not or where you would look to find out?
I made this mistake and PU them to early. After PU they took Quantity. Year 1560 and still no Exploration.
A long episode is very cool and useful
Spain could always get a lot of pu's. But this new mission tree take it to another level
I found that disinheriting Enrique leads to Aragon going for a council republic because they always claim the throne leading to negative stab for them
england=angevin please love your vids!
i dont think ive seen a red hawk video cross the hour mark. Paradox did good with Castile. congrats red hawk!
In one of my games I will admit I fucked up the England PU by taking the mission BEFORE they were Anglican. But I did get Naples, Aragon, Portugal and Austria with Bohemia and Hungary. I also got pretty lucky and got a pu over a massive Russia. All before the 1600 I got the Russian PU in 1598.
Oh and Burgundian inheritance naturally.
Haven't watched the video yet, but I would definitely offer Poland as another option for "pu master" you can even get burgundy fairly often.
I take cannons, durability, and MOVEMENT SPEED on my flagship. This allows you to actually catch enemy fleets, but then I use ship boarding so I get free ships.
I think its wrong to trade company (TC) every province, u should only do that with the center of trades to make good use of the "goods produced modifier" given by the TC on no TC provinces within the TC trade region.
This mechanic is disgusting strong if used correctly
If your king dies and you manage to put queen consort on the throne you can still trigger iberian wedding
Instruction unclear, Aragon became a grand republic
46:12
Lmao, poor Morocco, they had more rebels than people.
😂😂
How are you making money so early? I'm always in the hole and taking more loans through the 1450s >.< mind you i'm very new but I followed pretty much to the t minus a random event or two.
Holy macaroni 1 hour video Hawk i love u
Worth mentioning it’s more efficient to let Austria grow if they stay the emperor then PU them late game via the mission
I do it right away if they get Bohemia and Hungary. Super OP
If you add the 5 North African provinces in the Sevilla node to a trade company, you'll get bonus goods produced in the entire rest of Sevilla node. You can get it up over +40% goods produced.
For some reason I can't make a trade company, I'm new to this game please help
@@siddheshgajare4193 u need dlc
Your third idea group should be Aristocratic for the classic Exploration/Expansion/Aristo colonial opening.
Great video and thanks for actually doing a rundown of the government reforms! One question though, for government reforms Tier8, Lockean Proviso with its +5% goods produced modifier seems very good and stacks very well and would apply to my land and not just my colonies. What do you think?
Trade company North Morocco because the buildings you buy there give a bonus to the entire trade area, as in, all of Iberia, a way better outcome than a state that will be disloyal for a long time.
Is there any way to help Austria to get Bohemia in a PU? If Hungary doesn't become a junior partner willingly then Austria will get a casus belli and you can help them win the war but I wonder if there's anything similar to Bohemia. You also left out that it's possible for Spain to also get England in a PU, or at least it was in a previous patch.
Thank you for the video! That austrian pu mission is very Strong and i wonder if it can be exploited even more then getting Austria, Bohemia, Hungary and maybe Burgundy?🙈
It is very RNG influence but if you go for a HRE Castile you can feed Landshut for example the Bavarians provinces hoping they form it and Austria PUs them after. Then if you are a balkans căștile i wonder if you can declare war on Poland and feed Austria the provinces required for their PU mission on Poland. I think the AI îs hardcoded to declare PU wars if they have the CB. 🤔
2 days late, but I love these long guides.
no cb on byzantium after the infantes desaster... the stab hit doesnt matter cause the infantes mission gives you very cheap stability. of course if you just wanna focus on western mediterranean or colonial it doesnt matter, but if you fo for full mediterranean domination this will help you so much... the 1.35.2 hotfix made kebab a lot more stable and you really want to hurt them early because between tech 5 and 20 you can beat ottos only if you massively outnumber them
Good luck getting to Byzantium in time before the Ottomans attack them and the disasters are done.
Ottomans really needed an Update. But did Castile, Muscovy/Russia and France needed is as much? I dont think so.
With that the game shifts heavily into completely prefering certain majors and you get pushed into tag switching to them with minors even more...
Anyways. Love how they still put so much effort into EU4. Because of that its better than ever, especially after the hard times it had with DDRJake as main dev.
New player here, didn't realize if I PU Portugal and Aragon before Isabella is the leader you just lose Portugal as a PU. I was crushed
Always go curtail noble privileges. Especially as castile.
If Aragon becomes a peasant republic just restart(or maybe alt+f4 if you catch it in time), you'll lose them as a junior partner on the first election
That should happen before the Iberian wedding tho since "War of the Remancas" event triggers before the "Iberian wedding" event.
A problem that I have is that Austria is always allied to England, which in turn makes it so I can’t ally them. Any suggestions on how to fix it?
Can you make or remake an Ottoman guide for Domination ? Thanks you really like your videos mate !
So, this is a beginners guide I guess, because if you build the Carracks to beat England at sea, then you can beat the Otto fleet, particularly if they have fought Venice already, and once you do that, you can easily kill them, with Aragon, and Naples and Portugal, yes, you definitely can, and you should. These are the countries you have to beat down early a couple of times to enjoy the late game and not have to worry about coalitions, France, England, Ottomans, Muscovy. Getting to France and England is easy, the Ottomans, easy if they ally Granada, Tunis or Morocco. Muscovy is tricky, you should watch to see if Novgorod gets to less than 100% to vassalize, and no CB them. Also, keep your relations up with Poland, you can PU them later as well if you fight the rebels that spawn in their country to stop them becoming a monarchy and have your heir on the throne.
Whenever I wanna watch your videos on EU4, I cannot stand for seeing the mod you use for map
I love how landlocked Morocco got just a little bit worse with every cut in the video.
Am I the only one who thinks he cheats I mean his luck is unimaginable
@@JimGr2029Of course he cheats. In what game does he get burgundy and aragon to not rival you. Also Naples used to be allied to France in my runs and Morocco to Ottomans. He gets Burgundian succession, Isabella of Castile, Iberian wedding and Algeria.
Pt 2 pls
U can get a new trade center if granada get ceuta so when u dec war on portugal release granada and vassalise them u should be able to get the tc
you can also get England as a PU if they switch to anglicanism.
I would like to see a Ming guide, because I dont know which celestial reforms are worth to enact
I belive if you waite for england to become anglican and then you click the misión Spanish armada you gain a restoration of unión case, and the claims also
Why is there no facecam in your guides?
Hey Rew Hawk. there is 1 more thing you can do to get nevara faster, when you transfer trade
In a scale from 0 to 10, how necessary is golden century to play with Iberia and North Africa?
I can’t follow😂 my economy is always deep in debt and idk how to get money from the newly conquered land
U must spread in the new land ur colture ur religion and make cores after that u must make them into state and then u will earn much more find toturials if u need help AND I HIGHLY RECOMMEND DOING THE GAME'S TUTORIAL BTW
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Just give me GBR guide damn it! Please hawk good sir have mercy upon my Anglophile soul
Now there is a new privilege for the clergy that gives you -50% native chance of uprising and plus 50% assimilation so is like giving the middle native policy twice. Then when you have completed both exploration and expansion you can switch to the plus 20 settler keeping the -100% chance of uprising. The new colonization meta😅
The super extra colonize strat is expansion and maritime. You get explorer from the burgher privilege. Also native uprising chance is actually very overrated. Always pick aggressive colonizing and just keep 2k troops on the province. If its less than 8k natives you can get away with 1k. Just build 1-2 cogs and 1-2 units per colonist and thats pretty much the same as 0 uprising chance:0. Maritime is there btw for free manpower through marines. Especially good for castille because they get 25% marine force limit through naval doctrine. Through this you will colonize faster and have stronger navy and army but you wont be able to explore open seas but you can still request maps from portugal for that. Or steal maps if they are a subject
Portugal is hard coded to take exploration ideas now. I PU'd them before the got it and they still took it
Think the same with Castle, I PU'd them through an early Iberian wedding event as Aragon, and they went Exploration and Expansion for their first two ideas.
I am humbled by how much I suck at this game.
Somehow Aragon became my overlord lol. I think I shouldn't disinherit Enrique so fast.
Lore of EU4 1.35 Castile Guide - THIS Is The NEW PERSONAL UNION MASTER Momentum 100
То есть ты буквально ничего не сделал чтобы получить Бургундию?
I am in love with Isabella of castile
Infantes fired for me and I got hit with like 2x -1 stab :)
23:34 Actually since the release of Domination they're lock to choose exploration 100% of times.
I'm a new player and watching this to learn, why does he buy the mercenaries at the start when his army would be enough to cover the crisis?
Money is easier to come by than manpower, and destroying the Infantes rebels quickly is extremely important to prevent further stcks from popping up
