EU4 1.35 Korea CHOSON ONE Achievement and World Conquest Setup

[@josephwilson696]

Bro your eu4 content is so good

[@StrategySphere]

I appreciate that 🙏

[@Gremph]

Your videos are much different from other EU4 creators. I like that it's not just the early game over and over. You actually play into the later parts of the game.

[@arcane2631]

Fr, dunno why they don’t do this but can’t wait for this channel to gain more traction

[@StrategySphere]

Thank you - I appreciate you find this helpful.

[@AlcyonEldara]

@@arcane2631 when you are big enough to not even care about other nations, every game is almost the same.

[@zezinhodoposto2102]

Incredible content! I truly hope you can make a name for yourself in the EU4 community - the quality, style and accuracy of your guides is astonishing and, frankly, something I've never found on youtube before. Also thanks for taking my suggestion on doing a Korea run! I knew the tag was pretty great this last patch but watching someone with your kind of expertise give it a go is really entertaining and informative to watch!

[@Majora1988]

Korea is very strong in this patch, and I think you demonstrated why pretty well. I would love to see that Three Mountains setup.

[@StrategySphere]

Completely agree on Korea, I didn’t expect how much power they have. The Three Mountains coming next, at least the setup.

[@siriussurius4723]

Thanks! awesome video as always, i love playing as korea in grand-strategy games. I can't wait to play korea on EU5 or CK3(expansion) if they ever come out lol

[@StrategySphere]

Whoa thank you - this is my first Super comment! You’ve made my day :) I absolutely am waiting for EU5, quite sure they’ll make it.

[@coper2098]

It would be so nice if there was an "auto-convert" button added where your missionairies will convert every province in order in the menu by themselves

[@StrategySphere]

Hi - I completely agree. During my one faith / one culture run I broke my wrist from all the button clicking, I believe.

[@brandonwalker5011]

Now there is

[@RollingCalf]

​@@brandonwalker5011yeah but it kinda sucks. I wish they would switch off provinces they get stuck on

[@robinvonnegut7987]

I gotta say your Pinyin pronunciation is really really good & accurate 😘. Thanks for putting on another carefully made video!

[@StrategySphere]

Glad it worked! I studied Mandarin and visited China dozens of times, I appreciate your saying this.

[@connorshorts1406]

This guy rocks. I was surprised to find out the channel is less than a year old when I went to find more videos. The quality of the videos makes it seem like he’s been doing this for years. Keep it up.

[@StrategySphere]

Thank you! And yep, I started late April ‘23.

[@henryglennon3864]

Korea's loads of fun. I enjoy optimizing for tall gameplay, seizing the mandate of heaven, and turbo-developing China. They're also good for colonizing, but I personally find colonial gameplay a little tedious. Also, keep making videos, chief. You're very good.

[@StrategySphere]

Thanks much - I enjoyed playing Korea more than I expected. Was good fun.

[@szathmarilambert4943]

Very good content, happy that i found your channel. Keep the videos coming mate, at least i can watch something during the very loooong night shifts

[@StrategySphere]

Much appreciated! Glad you find them entertaining :)

[@iangonzales6417]

Incredible as always. Love your content and hope your channel continues to grow.

[@StrategySphere]

Thank you 🙏

[@rainehdaze9157]

Ah, this was super relaxing. I also love that map mod, whatever it is, paper maps are so _nice_

[@StrategySphere]

Glad you enjoyed! The mod is “theatrum orbis terrarum” steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1867433999

[@AypuoH]

21:00 Attacking Ming's tributaries (e.g. Korchin) immediately after a ~100% war with Ming itself can be a good idea to shorten the time of the truce - Ming will not fight and will immediately agree to withdraw from the war with the tributary. Thus it becomes possible to declare a new full-fledged war in five years, and you can even manage to go through several wars with it before it collapses on its own.

[@StrategySphere]

This makes sense and definitely works with Korea - I didn’t bother as I didn’t really need to. Ming was collapsing way too fast.

[@mymejojo2]

Good editing, great gameplay, very informative, entertaining and calming!!! Your EU4 content is some of the best on this platform

[@StrategySphere]

Thanks much 🙏

[@TheSpongebob1919]

Discovered yesterday what you are doing ! Dude, your video are lit, hope you will leap in the community, have a nice day !

[@StrategySphere]

Thanks a million! :)

[@dires555]

Great video! If may do a suggestation, it could be easier to follow what you are doing (and more relaxing for the eyes) to zoom more on what you are pointing!

[@StrategySphere]

Thanks much for the feedback! Will act on this.

[@2009worstyearever]

i was just wondering when your next vid was going to drop. Thanks Alex!

[@StrategySphere]

Thanks much - hope you enjoyed it!

[@purplevonstein6494]

Alex videos + coffee = pure joy! Love your videos man!

[@StrategySphere]

Glad you enjoy it! And thanks 🙏

[@BanditLyfe2471]

I know this is a few months late but the triptikata fort is basically a second capital fort is how I’ve seen it act, as for the AI getting it on the capital an enemy has to enter Korea and (I think) be a province or two away from it, which gives you a decision to move it to your capital which makes it a +2 fort without a castle and +4 fort with one

[@StrategySphere]

Yep, makes sense. Didn’t know about those conditions, thanks for sharing!

[@BanditLyfe2471]

⁠@@StrategySphereyou’re very welcome! I should run some tests on it but I find the Korean gameplay loop to be slow and not as enticing as Europe or hordes

[@therealJiggySaw]

I love your videos and how you go in depth with what your planning

[@StrategySphere]

Thanks much - appreciated!

[@BruhManJones]

Another great video! Your voice is very comforting.

[@StrategySphere]

Glad you think so! :)

[@AshManzarek]

My favourite EU channel atm.

[@StrategySphere]

Thank you 🙏

[@Tanksause]

OMG I love this. Keep doing it!

[@StrategySphere]

🙏👍

[@ghostwolf9664]

Best EU4 channel ever

[@StrategySphere]

Thank you :)

[@ydp868]

Great video. I personally play Korea fairly often, and nowadays, the 'meta' so to speak is to immediately go for Ming's throat after they get their first bad mandate hit and lose their manpower, around tech 5 or 6. Going court first helps stabilize your mandate immensely after you take the emperorship early like this. Anyway, next run I'd suggest is Aragon. You can become a peasant republic and get a 30 year old 5/6/4 godlike ruler right off the bat. I'm playing peasant Aragon right now and it's a ton of fun. You can play super aggresively and just destroy Castile and Portugal.

[@StrategySphere]

Thanks for the Korea advice, I’ll try it next time as I really enjoyed playing it. Good point on Aragon, will put it in my queue :)

[@campbell1213]

Nice mate love your video style

[@StrategySphere]

Much appreciated!

[@mangyminotaur30]

I’m fairly new at just under 1k hours but your videos have taught me so much! Awesome!

[@StrategySphere]

I’m very happy to hear! Thanks much :)

[@VincentMC290]

Watched all your vids btw

[@StrategySphere]

Thank you 🙏

[@etienneleblanc755]

Imo the best strat is to take the inward focus for thé first 20 years so you can fullfill all the basics missions and pop off real fast after 1464 with a very strong economy and giga cheap advisors

[@StrategySphere]

Yep, this makes perfect sense. I was simply not patient enough to sit around :)

[@worldboxvn8214]

Golden content. You are only youtuber with this type of long but very informative video

[@StrategySphere]

Thank you - I appreciate 🙏

[@RollingCalf]

In my game, ming took the triptika. Like 2 ticks later, beijing falls to me and i retrieve it. The game then gave me the option of taking it to my capital

[@mischadebrouwer9855]

5000+ hours here, and I didn't know you could enter your vassals' mission trees....

[@StrategySphere]

Yep, I’ve learned this recently and by chance, myself. Too many buttons in this game!

[@zehh172]

7:44 EXCELLENT pronounciation.

Surprised you didn't no-cb Cebu or Ternate or Tidore in Dec 1444. Fun guide.

[@StrategySphere]

Ah, that’s a nice idea to enter the spice islands!

[@carltonleboss]

Love the content, my dude. I think a Majapahit world conquest would be fun to see.

[@StrategySphere]

Thanks - never tried them and curious to explore!

[@anthanassar]

Really good Video! I tried this in 1.36 and everything went different xD Ming didnt Claim any Mandat. Kicked me off the Tribut system and attacked me after i conquered the north east und and attacked the oirates. i will try again and again, its a funny country!

[@StrategySphere]

Ohh that sounds painful haha. Good luck, hope another ran worked!

[@apostle6434]

What visual mods do you use for your campaigns? Keep up the good work, videos are great!

[@StrategySphere]

Hi! It’s “Theatrum Orbis Terrarum” from here: steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1867433999 And thank you :)

[@Umentho]

Truly amazing content, keep doing this! :) You should consider a few guides for begginers like me. ;)

[@StrategySphere]

Thank you :) yep, will do!

[@HEEHEEBOII]

Korea in dominations is like playing Korea in modern world, like their provinces are so highly developed and makes it so easy to conquer Manchuria and Japan then eventually Ming.

[@StrategySphere]

Yep, I agree. It’s surprisingly powerful.

[@viniciusyugulis7278]

Korea in Domination is like playing Korea in Civ games

[@HEEHEEBOII]

@@viniciusyugulis7278 Forreal. I was doing a casual Manchu -> Qing run and it took me like 4 wars to annex Korea.

[@HEEHEEBOII]

@@StrategySphere Yessir, I really enjoyed playing Korea this patch.

[@StrategySphere]

@@HEEHEEBOII 👍🇰🇷

[@ImperatorFloof]

Really like your videos. But do you always just throw all provinces into trade companies? Not using the Goods produced buff for the territories with a single province in the trade company ?

[@StrategySphere]

Hi! Yes, I just drop them all into a trade company. I find it’s the fastest way to insane cash and maximum merchants. I could be wrong, if course. But I tried the “single province in a trade center” strategy and remained poor.

[@ImperatorFloof]

@@StrategySphere yeah im mot too sure about it either. Way too many variables to consider

[@goopsta9375]

I love your videos man please keep them up! I’m fine with you not continuing this world conquest especially if you’re going to do a ryukyu video next.

[@StrategySphere]

Thanks, and yep, just started on Ryukyu. Coming soon.

[@Demon88061]

One way to get to war with the Daimyos without involving the Shogun is to enforce peace, to do that, just improve relations up to 100 with the person whose side you are joining on by enforcing it on the other side of the conflict, I was able to do this in Japan in my Korea game, and Ashikaga got so close to forming Japan, then right before he could annex Uesugi, who held the Musashi that was all he needed to form Japan, I declared war on him to take it, and since I had 2 mil techs on him, and I had a Korea that basically had all of Manchuria at this point as well, I smashed him, and then took it, and I would have taken more but truce with Ming was almost up, so I just took the province and some money and peaced out, just to get to war with Ming, it was an easy war as Ming had low mandate, but yeah, you can prevent Japan from forming, also it can get you Shinto provinces to harmonize with sooner, so you get the infantry combat bonus sooner as well. Anyway, great content, keep up the great work, I have seen all your videos (except your first 3 videos), and they have been great, found you with the triple the rome achievement and have never subscribed and set the bell to notify me of all new videos faster, keep up the awesome work.

[@StrategySphere]

This is an excellent piece of advice, thank you. I’m going to try this as Ryukyu right now.

[@stalwart9887]

Great content!

[@StrategySphere]

Thank you! 👍

[@bronzedisease]

Can you do a france wc? I feel it has quite a lot of potential given its mission and France being not an end tag. I thinking france to Jerusalem - latin emptire and russia. Also maybe a guide for finland achievement. I m grtting crushed here

[@StrategySphere]

Hi! These are great ideas, I will go for a French WC next (or at least the setup). I’ll just note that France is an end-game tag now, as of 1.35. For Finland - do you mean the Finish line achievement?

[@bronzedisease]

@@StrategySphere yeah I tried last night...didn't know France became a end tag....yeah crossing the finish line

[@StrategySphere]

By the way, part 1 of the French world conquest, on your request, is here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pWXdg56ugdlmY6s Part 2 will be out soon…

Thanks, this is helpful to know!

[@jks9110]

your 안녕하세요 pronunciation is so good

[@StrategySphere]

Thanks, I love Korea and have visited it many times. Glad it worked :)

[@stygn]

Question about the level 1 fort you got. Does it actually have zone of control? And does it negate "bad stuff" from rebels like normal forts do? Because the level 1 capital fort does neither.

[@StrategySphere]

Hi! I didn’t test this, but I do recall it blocking the retreat of an enemy who made it down south once. I don’t know if it improved the devastation situation though, since I never had devastation there.

[@stygn]

@@StrategySphere Thanks for the reply : ) I guess I'll have to ask reddit or do my own experiment. Really good video btw : ) Never quite knew how the whole "getting cores on china as the emperor" thing worked. Now I know : )

[@StrategySphere]

@@stygn thanks and please let me know how it goes - I never quite figured how the Tripitaka forts work. I see Korea bringing it to their capital, which I wasn’t able to do.

Can you make a vid on mehmets ambition? Cuz your videos are great and super detailed

[@StrategySphere]

Great suggestion! I have never played the Ottomans, so this sure will be a challenge.

[@Borv413]

If I were to suggest some tags for future videos I would say Poland and/or the Easter egg nations which are only playable via console commands. The latter include Jan Mayen and the Synthetics. Both have the Invasion modifier which gives you free Imperialism CB from day 1, +100 forcelimit, and 1million manpower +100k sailors at the start along with other stuff, you can't do diplomacy at all though. As Jan Mayen, you spawn with 3 neighboring colonized provinces but are the wrong religion and wrong culture group for basically everyone. As Synthetics, you get very cheap armies and provinces are automatically annexed/cored after sieging them. The problem is that you start with +50%fire damage received and all provinces you take have 3 dev. You do start with a large tag and all of its dev though.

[@StrategySphere]

These are great ideas, thank you. I played Poland once, they’re really strong. Never tried the others, will put them on my list now.

[@CharlieKellyEsq]

Mila is absolutely adorable.

[@StrategySphere]

Thanks :)

[@SmashingCapital]

Shouldve started with inward focus to dev and get missions, you have truces anyways

[@StrategySphere]

It’s a valid strategy, just not my style.

[@KlaatuZu]

Nice video! At the end you say you would change capital to africa and then the new world for a WC, but didnt say why. Can you please explain this? Thank you again.

[@StrategySphere]

Hi! Moving the capital to Africa is just a step to moving it to the New World, to complete the true One Tag WC. It’s not a must, just for fun. Because I started in Asia, Africa is a good first step because I can isolate my capital there.

[@zehh172]
