EU4 1.36 Malaya Guide - THIS Is The SECRET RICHEST Nation In EU4

In this video titled EU4 1.36 Malaya Guide - THIS Is The SECRET RICHEST Nation In EU4 I make an EU4 Guide for Malaya starting as Malacca for Europa Universalis 4 1.36 King of Kings. With EU4 1.36 King of Kings releasing the meta and the starting moves for many nations on the map has changed, so of course new and up to date guides are needed. This EU4 Malaya starting moves guide or EU4 Malaya starting moves tutorial will ensure that you get a great start for yourself playing as the nation of Malaya. This guide covers the opening moves, diplomacy, estates, alliances, subjects, missions, national ideas, and more! Serbia is one of the best nations for blobbing, having a massive army that is also extremely powerful, being extremely rich, dominating trade and more! After watching this EU4 Malaya guide you will ensure a great start for yourself, and you will have an easy and fun campaign.

I need a guide for Ottawa, please! I can't get my economy or military collected in time for when England arrives!

[@OctoMan1]

Colonial England would be great and also Poland

[@Krisbu]

More south east Asian countries. Also, more offbeat Euro countries if possible

[@Aerozona23]

Inca!

[@akelion3451]

Wow,an actual malaya guide.These are rare

[@rjs69]

except for the one he did 8 months ago.......

[@christianholbrook2686]

Malaya is absolutely my favorite non-europe nation to form. This place actually taught me so much about the game. Amazing guide Hawk. Now I wanna play Malaya again.

[@y33t23]

A Malaya guide from _the biggest naval warfare enjoyer out there_ ? The balance of the universe has shifted, I can feel it

[@mozzy8997]

Let's goo!! I'm one of the rare Malaya enjoyers! Happy to see this!

[@christianholbrook2686]

Right there with you man! THE SPICE MUST FLOW!!!

[@MrBattlecharge]

I always enjoy forming Malaya using Brunei. If you ally Malacca rivals or neighbours on the island, you deter them from expanding. After that their mission tree and lack of competent neighbours makes expansion easy. Make sure to ally Sunda too, to keep Majapahit at bay. After that, it's all gravy.

[@lotuscabage4755]

Me forming Malaya using Aceh:

[@thomashenry4798]

For cloves what you want to do is to get a colony that will allow you to attack them. Full annex one and vassalize the other. This will allow them to start colonizing the islands around them on your behalf, and they guarantee cloves will spawn.

[@velomeister]

I've only formed Malaya once, but it was one of the campaigns that I've enjoyed the most. Now I want to do it again.

[@OliverKlohzov]

This is crazy.. just like 2 days ago, I wanted to do a malaya run cause I hadn't done one since your last guide of the region.. and I couldn't help but wonder how long until you did another guide 😭 it's here

[@HarryTheArchaeologist]

Malaya is such a fun nation to form. I highly recommend Palembang as well. The ability to be a pirate in that region lets you rake in buckets of ducats and you can devestate Ming's coastline and cause their mingplosion.

[@derekskelton4187]

Give the Japanese pirates some love

[@Diyel]

Madyas is also a fun nation to play as a pirate republic, plus they have their own missions so that's a bonus.

[@Discotekh_Dynasty]

Hell yeah Man, new Malaya guide! I know what I’m doing on my day off, thanks Hawk!

[@DylanSargesson]

I just did Cebu (Philippine Tiger achievement). Obviously a bit of a slower start than Malacca, but broadly the same sort of game play. Such a rich région outside of Europe

[@Speedster___]

As someone that just finished a Malacca into Malaysia campaign it’s a tad hard to get into Sumatra due to alliance chains but once you do pretty smooth sailing

[@boot-4704]

LET’S GOOOOOO

[@niisan762]

You should definitely open up with expansion imo, colonize next to ternate vassalize them and declare on tidore. Your subject will get a colonist

[@dmvdh4270]

had a lot of fun forming Malaya!

[@reverendteej]

Great video again! Thanks Red Hawk!

[@louisbaker4362]

Malacca is my favourite nation to play. I've played it a few times with different roleplay styles. My first playthrough was to flip to Mahayana and take on the Srivijaya name tag. I even got to confirm Thalassocracy. I did do a Sunni playthrough to maximise the amount of merchants. Regarding the mosque in Kutaraja, it's best to build it. Your missionary strength does affect the conversion speed of propagate religion, if you are going subject heavy, Malay culture nations get decisions to flip to Sunni should their capital or most of their development flip to Sunni. This means you can use propagate religion to ensure future vassals flip to Sunni and making their loyalty not affected by religious differences.

[@jasonwailmer3194]

Another money making tips, you could vassalise sambas and wait for them to form lanfang. They have a decision where they can spawn gold in every kalimantan/borneo provinces if you give them lands in there of course :) To form lanfang you need to wait canton area to not owned by ming

[@nikolaitregouet]

Honestly love Malaya, but… In my opinion, Ternate is the way to go to form it. Way more fun and challenging at the same time.

[@carlmcintosh8057]

You're killing it my guy. Keep it up!

[@Yacovo]

Thanks for the video

[@raihanrusli2720]

Malacca is probably the nation I recommend most to the new players. Its the strongest and richest in the region, easier neighbors, you can learn about trade, land and naval warfare, you can colonize, simple mission trees and mechanics (no HRE or Chinese celestial), etc. Even europeans often lose in naval warfare since its your home, while europeans barely bring their entire fleet there

[@nenadsarac2887]

I once played in that region formed Siam and never again, I hate ships and island hopping

[@Bronzelizard02]

Pretty borders, colonization, huge economy, and a massive fleet. What more could you ask for?

[@paterjacob4949]

Incredible situation: Sambas AND Banjar are colonising in this run. Never seen it. So you vassalise them (+Tidore/Ternate + Bali for nearby isles) and absolutely do not need to colonise yourself.

[@OddlySpecificGaming]

Those might be some of the best starting ideas in the game wow

[@joaoprzygocki1865]

hey hawk can you do an knights guide or an qq guide? that is the 2 nations i couldnt get the ball rolling... or maybe a guide for native american nations like cusco or aztec (not just survive the eurpoeans but actually being powerful)

[@anuar143]

Malacca mentioned! btw Aceh is pronounced as Aa-Che-h...the che is like che guevara, and ends it with the 'h' sound

[@legitplayin6977]

No way! Red hawk playing outside of Europe ? Love to see this

[@Hardlett]

Ooohh do i wish that Maphilindo is a really happened irl. Shit would be op

[@MuppetLord1]

Best way is to start as Sunda & form banten through mission tree, amazing ideas that are great for both economy & blobbing. :)

[@YataTheFifteenth]

this. The Banten idea set is one of like four to include a 20% goods produced modifier.

[@harku123]

Now THIS is a fun one!

[@frostyguy1989]

Whenever I play a Malaya campaign I try to colonise Micronesia as soon as I can to get the Nan Madol monument which speeds up your colonisation game. There's also an event after the Mingsplosion where you can release Lanfang in Borneo. It seems counterproductive to do it, until you realise that it spawns another gold mine in the area, and once the truce is up you'll likely completely surround them and they'll have no allies.

[@TheByzantineEmpire]

Re 25:20 Attack the natives, if you want to min max, if you leave the natives you get a production bonus for the Provence if you keep the natives.

[@John_1-1_in_Japanese]

One of the mechanics I wish EU4 had was culture drifting akin to CK3. Or culture conversion that creates a new culture in the your culture group rather than changes it to your exact culture. Every time I play as Japan, I conquer the SEA islands and tend to state them & culture convert them since it just kinda makes sense to me aesthetically given they're all islands. They're even kinda a continuous chain. But then I end up with a giant block of Kyushuan that stretches across the map which kinda implies the whole world is culturally homogenous... except for Japan itself? Or that the English that settle America grow culturally distinct but English/assimilated Indians in India don't. I'd love to something like Sinicization for cultures neighboring China but with a unique culture for every culture group in the game. I want a Sino-German culture damnit.

[@Shiptoast0]

Such a fun nation to play imo

[@fidoruh]

the best map color to make in this game. but im biased cause its my favorite color.

[@DvdAvins]

When you talk about native policy, you never mention that you don't have to kill off the natives if you choose repression. If you can spare the troops to station 2 units on or next to each colony, it's very easy to put down rebellions and the production bonus in the new province. I guess 2 units in the provinces with the most natives. You don't have to keep an eye on it, as you get a popup whenever there's an uprising.

[@mali647]

Dude you can take an explorer from estates. Going expo first as Malaya simply a mistake.

[@svarog8546]

No

[@mali647]

@@svarog8546 That was a nice argument

[@starkness12]

There is ALWAYS an estate decision to conquer pahangs province Use it to conquer the peninsula early

[@MoeZard-nd7zs]

Still think Shogun Majapahit is the strongest. It has vassalise cb on whole world and with daimo mechanic it basically becomes inlimited swarm works

False advertisement. +42 golds is not +9000. (So i can't compare with GB, if they are really more rich, which i find possible, but unlikely.)

Annoyingly as Malaya, you are forced to make Australia a colonial administration (unless you mess around with capital placement), and considering that colonial nations don't convert culture, I've had a fully Malay Indonesia, Indochina, Burma and half of the Pacific, but then Australia is a patchwerk of Castilians, Malays, Egyptians, and natives.

Australia is definitely the region of all time in eu4
