I always love how you take special steps to ensure that your guides resemble what the player will encounter in a normal run. This is why your guides are recommended among the community. Keep it up! 👍
@@antorseax9492 Fuckin hate his guides, lmao. Trying to follow that got as a new player got me to quit EU4 after a few hours, then I found hawk and dumped like 30 hours in 1 week.
15:47 The Feast of the Pheasant was a banquet organized by Philip of Burgundy, at which he and a large number of other noblemen promised to go on crusade against the Ottomans. However, although many preparations were made, he never actually went on crusade.
This still works in 1.35 however DO NOT unpause your game after you fall under France. 1.35 gave France an ability to kick Mary of a horse instantly integrating your nation. Declare immediately without getting support from Austria and others.
I think the point is, it wouldn't be enough war score to take all the cores and Paris in the next war (as I found out), but you could get lucky and have a third war plus a delayed inheritance
Recommend vassalising Provence after the burgundian inheritance and help them get back to 100 dev. This will give your vassal Provence cores on all of Naples.
23:15 I’d recommend lowering autonomy as well everywhere. Land gained through inheriting a vassal starts with 60% autonomy. Doing so will help with your income and force limit.
Imagine following all the steps in detail, managing to do everything even 3 years in advance and then being instantly annexed after becoming the puppet of France with my vassals.
Been watching your guides (and A to z of course!) for a while now, and I just want to say that I think they're incredibly well done. By some distance the best I have found! I love the detail, and the fact that you explain the WHY for these small details. I am still relatively new with only 500 ish hours in the game, and while I am somewhat competent there are so many nuances to this game that all these little bits of information are very helpful to improve as a player and understand the game better. Thank you for the amazing content!
As others have said, you won't be able to declare independence right away. Hawk is mistaken, but got lucky with the event. However, you can basically either declare conquest immediately(since you have claims on all France's lands) or you can wait for the Burgundian Inheritance incident to fire. Then France usually gives the land up and releases a bunch of countries. Once the incident fires, you then will be able to declare independence. It's totally fine because you retain cores on all the low countries land you previously held. So you can handle the France war, then wait for the truce to expire then take it all back in reconquest. In the meantime between Independence and reconquest of the low countries, you can ensure you get into the HRE. Having the emperor as an Ally and high opinion makes this very likely. Then you can simply take all that low country land in a handful of easy wars(all of em may just ally each other). Plus, this allows you to move your capital to the much more optimal Amsterdam.
I would recommend to focus on Military points because with an advisor you can get tec 4 very early so that the French armies have no chance of winning battles.
Yeah, I agree. He's also kind of underselling how painful this first war with France can be otherwise. Trying to do it myself right now and its awful, even with Castile and Aragon helping. Focusing mil from the start to beat the French to tech 4 actually gives your armies a chance at beating them. And go offensive instead of diplo. I know it's useful for the HRE stuff, but Charles is 2/0/4 and these first couple wars with France are the hardest part of this campaign. The guide he made for the previous patch is a little easier imo, with important caveat that Charles can abdicate now.
You can also delay Burgundian inheritance to 1500s by save scumming and saving Charles, that way 99% of the time Marie will die soon after you fall under PU and you get that event to declare war on France. Just a tip if you dont want to lose stab by declaring independance war. Also if you are struggling in the first war with the French you can first do that mission that gives liberty desire to their vassals and it will be an easy war. Nice video!
Pretty sure you can't declare independance war against france if the lowland crisis is up in the HRE. Also for some reason the transfer subject from the age objective let you vassalize lorraine for very low AE
for 24:30,you don't have that option because Paradox removed the independance casus belli from Burgundy before the imperial event for the lowlands conclude,so you don't cheese it like you're doing (clearly it doesn't work as you're showing,since you can use regular casus belli instead that a personal union can't use normally,because they just replaced the casus belli table from the subject option to regular,the event making it so you inherit all vassals is also lazily coded to allow the reconquest exploit) Edit : You can't finish the succesion mission until 1500 regardless of what happens,since the imperial incident doesn't get resolved properly.
I also ran into this, though it seems you can break free through the other cb's, although you won't get supported for your independence then. You could also wait for the independence event but that loses you the lowlands unless you save scum for it.
@@TheTimster02 yes,that's exactly how it works,the only reason he had people supporting him is because he had the event. the way you inherit people is also really weird,since you can inherit the whole French Region,sure,including britanny or provence if you pu'ed/vassalized them,but you can't inherit something like Naples (they get transferred to france),BUT you can also inherit bohemia for exemple (it's also not that hard to do at the start,so it's kinda insane) So I have no idea what country is ok to inherit via the event. edit : you can inherit everybody that has a capital in the french region,or in the holy roman empire,so you can't have anybody in Iberia,Italy,The British Isles,Denmark,Hungary or Poland,but everybody in the middle of those nations is free integration,even if they're at 100 liberty desire.
Unlucky that I'm just finishing my Burgundy into Lotharingia campaign (almost 1800) on the day this guide comes out. Will definitely keep in mind the suggestions to wait out the truce before abdicating so Austria doesn't demand the lowlands, and to switch my capital to the lowlands to prevent the Dutch revolt. Both of which happened to me in my game lol. Anyways, amazing guide as always!
14:30 missed opportunity to grab all of Bar. I know RH said not to, but here's why I would reccomend it anyways. 1. Provence had actually REMOVED barrois from the empire, thats a noticable difference in AE, among other benefits. 2. Taking it now prevents Provence from moving his capital there in case he loses provence proper to the Pope or Savoy (or Aragon, rarely enough.) 3. You need a certain province count in the France region to finish the mission that gets France's vassals to defect, this helps with that. 4. Taking at least the single higher developed province in Bar means that between Anjou and the remaining province, Anjou is likely to be Provence's capital should he lose provence proper to the Pope like most games. It also means he won't change his capital to the province in Bar, as the AI likes to do when there's more dev. there, further enabling provence to join the HRE, making finishing him off much harder. Alternatively, RH should have quickly warned Brittany, as this would dissuade him from taking Anjou like he usually does, meaning Provence is likely to move his capital there if he loses provence proper. EDIT: As seen later in the video, 17:30 , Provence WAS forced into the empire. Just sayin'.
You have no idea how much i want to play as burgundy when i get my new pc. Saw your old 1.32 guide and ludi's 1.32 guide. Now watched ludi's part 2 from today and now your video. Btw great channel keep up your work!
It's a nice strategy. However I think it could be improved by integrating nevers at 1449. Because you are always way above the relationship limit having nevers costs you 1 diplo every month. It should cost you some 70 Diplo to integrate it. So having nevers around till 1484... costs you al lot of Diplo.
Hahaha Burgundy: insults 2 of the most powerful nations in the game. Burgundy's mission: Good job, you get 25% improve relations. Just thought this was funny.
I really like almost all your nation guides but one thing that I think you don't always get right is the ideas you should pick. Imo, quantity and then economic are the two best ideas and you should be taking them in every campaign. The -10% development cost policy you get is just so vital to scaling better than the enemy. Also quantity is just the best military idea hands down. The only other one that can maybe try and rival it is defensive but even defensive is only good if you have enough manpower naturally.
First of all defensive is only good for the morale, secondly how do you not get bored every single game the same ideas the same playin tall meta bs. Just have fun man no need to play it like its mp
@@SaleGudmen idk I just like the feeling of having a strong country. I also play a lot of small countries and quantity is always a must if you're playing a small country with very low manpower reserves.
Would during the first war for Champagne's cores you not be able to take a core of Toulouse, as well as Gascony? That would give you most of southern France as well
Im a bit confused. I waited for my truce with france to end. I abdicated my ruler so the burgundian succession triggered and i chose to get PUd by france. But then i dont get my independece cb? Any reason why
If you get a mission for Picardy claims on England and you declare on them before France, they'll surrender Maine without a fight but you can take on the stuff on the north coast of France with minimal struggle. Also I haven't tried yet but I assume you can still get a early PU over Bohemia if they rival Austria and Austria won't intervene.
soo.. came here for some info on the inheritance and it struck me that I did the start of my run different; I got castille, Austria and popeman as allies, but they weren't really interested in helping in the first war, however I did get the league of the public weal mission done before declaring and I solo'd france with a force limit + merc stack (had a bit of cash saved up) and with micro managing my vassals / PU's to make sure they didn't attack france's vassals (which was a pain). I will say that as long as the vassal don't bug out and actually start helping france in the war it's doable (it pretty much crashed my economy for a couple of years though) anyway; came here to see the recommendations after Marie is offered as heir as I haven't really played burgundy before; so time to watch on :D edit: so I started playing again; and within 10 minutes I got a PU over austria... this is going to be nuts once the inheritance actually triggers
I abdicated as Charles as soon as I got an heir of proper age and I had no truce with France, but I couldn't declare war with the independence cb. I just declared war with a conquest cb because I had permanent claims on them. I still broke the union and became independent, but I had to fight alone (which is not that difficult btw ).
After integrating your subjects, you should release Brabant and feed them another province in the low countries to get the event that allows them to become the Netherlands.
After resolving the Burgundian Inheritance, isn't it better to let the Imperial Incident about Burgundian Membership fire, and then for the Emperor to reject you by being their rival? I'm not sure if it's been updated but when it first came out the Emperor denying your membership gives Burgundy Personal Union/Subjugation CBs on all the Electors, and since four of them are Monarchies that's another way to give you four easy votes at the same time as massively boosting your power.
This might have been different in that patch, but for the love all that is holy, do not state everything. You can always state it later. If you state the 800ish Dev with your 200ish cap, you will end up with L1 advisors costing 5 ducats / month, and have Luxemburg causing 116 AE
I think I declared too soon after asking for support because no one else was in my war with France but it was all for the best, I was lucky Castile or Austria didn’t rival me during the war and I was able to ally them right after.
ah i remember my first 5 Siege guy... It was with Albania (on the patch where you still start at war agains the Ottomans) and got with him the perfect start for the Albania or Iberia Achievement. Crushing Hungary and Bosnia in the first 4 years and secure a Pu over France agains Poland.
i find it hilarious with this guy that he says on almost all guide *You Summon the Diet and you pick whatever agenda is right for you* its always those exact lines. XD
I had the worst luck of all time. As soon as I got Marrie, inheritence happened. I had a truce with France because of alliance war from Spain. Marrie disappears, suddenly, I fall PU under 7-10 province 5k army France and Austria demands lowlands. Now I need a guide lol
For me Burgundy is just strange. I always think why should i play them when i can get them for free. If you start as France for example and Burgundy didnt rival you, you ll most likely get all of Burgundy including stuff you did feed them as ally. No need to aquire tons of AE from eating into France but also no AE for getting all of Burgundy.
And what about diplomatic annexation of all lowlands while forming Netherlands. As I remember it may be realised by forming Netherlands as subject of burgundy by event
I have a challenge for you (maybe for when you one day play Yokuts in A-Z?): starting as any North American Totemist, become a horde and form the totemist Mongol Empire what do think, does that sound like it could be a fun challenge?
If make Provence your vassal in that war against them, u will also get them on the burgundian event. xD ( Usually they get excomunication from the Pope and u dont have many AE )
Bonus fact, sometimes when you are fighting Provence, Britany and France jump in and fight them as well. When you vassalize Provence you will fight France and Britany, so you can vassalize Britany as well and demand the cores back from France and get Paris. This can happen way before you 2nd truce with France expires. So when the Burgundian event fires, you can insta annex almost all France. xD
Yes. Its known as the Cross of Burgundy, modelled after St Andrew's cross. They had it as their flag long before the Spanish. In the 1700's the Spanish were ruled by Habsburgs from Burgundian descent, so they picked up the Burgundian flag as the symbol of the new Spanish Navy.
shouldn't burgundy start off as a subject of France? Historically speaking that's what they were iirc but I guess they'd have make a special subject type for them so it is fine as it is
Is it normal?common that during the war France and her allies were basically hunting my armies down maliciously..? I had 0 soldiers within a few months as I tried to avoid battles but they kept chasing me, making me unable to regroup with Castile, how annoying
Why haven't you completed the mission for french vassals to become disloyal before attacking them? You could have grabbed Paris to completed the next mission in the 1st war.
You should have both Paris and some more provinces in the France region to complete that mission. I don't know if it's possible to get all in the first war.
I just started my Burgundy campaign and took the France option. Now I'm a junior partner under France with no truce but I don't have the independence CB, only regular conquest. The imperial incident is still active but I'm almost certain France will give back the lowlands if I wait. Can I get independence from a regular conquest war? Will being at war with France stop them from giving away the lowlands? Pls help.
I almost take the France's vassal but they choose independence war aganist France with Castile help after that I wait a couple month I take the Burgundian Succession event then I Fought aganist Castile for France :D it was very kaotic

Pretty sure you can't declare independance war against france if the lowland crisis is up in the HRE.
Also for some reason the transfer subject from the age objective let you vassalize lorraine for very low AE
It seems to be impossible except that conquest cb does work on your overlord and also breaks the PU
Video title: annex france instantly
Video: played for 60 years and france still exists

24:11 I think there's a mistake here. You only get the indepence CB after France cedes the lowlands. At least that's my experience.
You should improve relation with French vassals before the first war which gives you massive advantage and France can’t integrate them
Tip: As France or burgundy, I like to get Provence as a vassal. They have an opportunity to get cores on Naples in mission tree.
It's a nice strategy. However I think it could be improved by integrating nevers at 1449. Because you are always way above the relationship limit having nevers costs you 1 diplo every month.

Im a bit confused. I waited for my truce with france to end. I abdicated my ruler so the burgundian succession triggered and i chose to get PUd by france. But then i dont get my independece cb?

I had the same problem and realized that you need to have at least 0 stability. You don't get the cb when you're below 0 stab.
If you get a mission for Picardy claims on England and you declare on them before France, they'll surrender Maine without a fight but you can take on the stuff on the north coast of France with minimal struggle. Also I haven't tried yet but I assume you can still get a early PU over Bohemia if they rival Austria and Austria won't intervene.

I will say that as long as the vassal don't bug out and actually start helping france in the war it's doable (it pretty much crashed my economy for a couple of years though)
anyway; came here to see the recommendations after Marie is offered as heir as I haven't really played burgundy before; so time to watch on :D

My last run was for the Burgundy cheevos - This is similar to how I played. Crazy fun nation to play.
After integrating your subjects, you should release Brabant and feed them another province in the low countries to get the event that allows them to become the Netherlands.
After resolving the Burgundian Inheritance, isn't it better to let the Imperial Incident about Burgundian Membership fire, and then for the Emperor to reject you by being their rival? I'm not sure if it's been updated but when it first came out the Emperor denying your membership gives Burgundy Personal Union/Subjugation CBs on all the Electors, and since four of them are Monarchies that's another way to give you four easy votes at the same time as massively boosting your power.
Nice video as always dude 👍! btw what is your favourite part about the new update/dlc??
All of it
the game just would not give me a break. the number of times I had to save scum getting the marie of loth achievement was ridiculous.
Would love to see a Granada guide
This might have been different in that patch, but for the love all that is holy, do not state everything. You can always state it later. If you state the 800ish Dev with your 200ish cap, you will end up with L1 advisors costing 5 ducats / month, and have Luxemburg causing 116 AE
Don’t need the guide but I still support you mate 👍
Based Burgundian Empire (I am from Burgundy)
Not realistic there's no traditional Liege war against austria even tho they outnumber you 1 to 4 smh.
for me its been like at least 2 months since last burgundy guide
WTF it was 10 months ago
I think I declared too soon after asking for support because no one else was in my war with France but it was all for the best, I was lucky Castile or Austria didn’t rival me during the war and I was able to ally them right after.
ah i remember my first 5 Siege guy...
It was with Albania (on the patch where you still start at war agains the Ottomans) and got with him the perfect start for the Albania or Iberia Achievement.
Crushing Hungary and Bosnia in the first 4 years and secure a Pu over France agains Poland.
Lets try one more time burgundy and see if i can get the achievements
i find it hilarious with this guy that he says on almost all guide *You Summon the Diet and you pick whatever agenda is right for you* its always those exact lines. XD
I had the worst luck of all time. As soon as I got Marrie, inheritence happened. I had a truce with France because of alliance war from Spain. Marrie disappears, suddenly, I fall PU under 7-10 province 5k army France and Austria demands lowlands. Now I need a guide lol
27:58 you can just remove Amsterdam from the HRE. One province won't destroy relations with Austria
I'm playing burgundy in 1.36 i choosed to become a personal union with france but they annexed me inmediatly i don't know wath to do
Do a Lorraine->Lotharingia guide
I request lewa nation .... its in the middle East. Good video by the way and awesome guide.
For me Burgundy is just strange. I always think why should i play them when i can get them for free. If you start as France for example and Burgundy didnt rival you, you ll most likely get all of Burgundy including stuff you did feed them as ally. No need to aquire tons of AE from eating into France but also no AE for getting all of Burgundy.
And what about diplomatic annexation of all lowlands while forming Netherlands. As I remember it may be realised by forming Netherlands as subject of burgundy by event
I have a challenge for you (maybe for when you one day play Yokuts in A-Z?):
starting as any North American Totemist, become a horde and form the totemist Mongol Empire
what do think, does that sound like it could be a fun challenge?
13:12 bro got Napoleon 300 years early
Is that a TNO REFERENCE?????
I LOVE YOU SO MUCH
I just started a burgundy game to follow this guide and Phillipe died in January 1445
I would KILL to get a champion of the joust like that
Can't you release Gascony from La Marche as well? Don't need to take Limousin.
I've had charles die as an heir and skipped the Burgundian succession
If make Provence your vassal in that war against them, u will also get them on the burgundian event. xD
( Usually they get excomunication from the Pope and u dont have many AE )
Bonus fact, sometimes when you are fighting Provence, Britany and France jump in and fight them as well. When you vassalize Provence you will fight France and Britany, so you can vassalize Britany as well and demand the cores back from France and get Paris. This can happen way before you 2nd truce with France expires.
So when the Burgundian event fires, you can insta annex almost all France. xD
Any history geek here who knows why Burgundy is having a spanish flag?
Yes. Its known as the Cross of Burgundy, modelled after St Andrew's cross. They had it as their flag long before the Spanish. In the 1700's the Spanish were ruled by Habsburgs from Burgundian descent, so they picked up the Burgundian flag as the symbol of the new Spanish Navy.
@@harishsundararaman8495 thx, had this question for a long time in my head
The correct question is why Spain has a Burgundian flag.
The red hawk you can make a video that shows us what mods you have
shouldn't burgundy start off as a subject of France? Historically speaking that's what they were iirc
but I guess they'd have make a special subject type for them so it is fine as it is
dukes of Normandy are vassal of french crown as well but you don't see england as french vassal :D
I diN't got the brugundian inheritange and its 1500 now I have no real Idea how to go on
Can you do a guide on Orleans please?
Is it normal?common that during the war France and her allies were basically hunting my armies down maliciously..? I had 0 soldiers within a few months as I tried to avoid battles but they kept chasing me, making me unable to regroup with Castile, how annoying
Why haven't you completed the mission for french vassals to become disloyal before attacking them? You could have grabbed Paris to completed the next mission in the 1st war.
You should have both Paris and some more provinces in the France region to complete that mission. I don't know if it's possible to get all in the first war.
I just started my Burgundy campaign and took the France option. Now I'm a junior partner under France with no truce but I don't have the independence CB, only regular conquest. The imperial incident is still active but I'm almost certain France will give back the lowlands if I wait.
Can I get independence from a regular conquest war? Will being at war with France stop them from giving away the lowlands? Pls help.
Same issue here. How did you resolve?
@@adrienbouin-lotrous9379 I couldn't get it to work so I just let the lowlands go, joined the HRE and reconquered all of my cores.
Yeah, when I declare war with a normal conquest war CB the PU end, and the heir Marie disappears. So I can't get my achievement.
Any resolve? Help
i dont know how you do it man, but i cant get even close to earning money as Burgundy. Its always -7 per month or so
I almost take the France's vassal but they choose independence war aganist France with Castile help after that I wait a couple month I take the Burgundian Succession event then I Fought aganist Castile for France :D it was very kaotic
