Belozero !

As Bregenz, form beloozero

[@herrmcio]

for a sweet 1-2 punch, form Malaya as Bregenz and then Austria as Brunei

[@Muck006]

When it comes to Poland ... you need to form Prussia and then CONQUER THE STEPPES ... for some PRUSSIAN COSSACKS!

2 things to remember from this video: 1. Leave the emperorship to Austria, at least until the Burgundy-Liege war and the Burgundian succesion war end 2. Don’t mess with Ulm

[@BetaMonk3y]

I feel like if you're forced to give up territory after a coalition war it should automatically reduce AE and adjust anyone in a secondary coalition to exit if you're low enough. this dogpile after dogpile well after your already down seems overkill

[@gray15780]

It does reduce AE

[@ericsaxon5736]

@@gray15780 Obviously it does NOT reduce AE in proportion. Do you know how we know that? Because after losing all of his vassals and all of his lands to the point where he had his starting borders, he was still the target of a coalition.

[@bigbubble4282]

I've 2k hours and I've never played as Brandenburg. Pretty sure the only reason I've so many hours is because my old computer was slow.

[@evilcatghost307]

It's honestly not too bad. Once you deal with the Poland taking the land you need, usually by allying them, it's pretty chill. Usually after I get the land I need I sit there and take land occasionally but usually sit and dev lol

[@evilcatghost307]

Once you have Prussia provinces just sit back and pick off smaller countries

[@bigbubble4282]

@@evilcatghost307 I did form Prussia once as the Teutonic Order, and all of Europe turned into a massive Battle Royale. I also got a PU over Spain during that game, so it probably could've turned into a World Conquest if I actually finished it.

@@bigbubble4282 nice! Yeah hre can be a pain especially cas the league war is annoying more then interesting (hopefully eu4 fixes that). Honestly I think the chillest hre games are small 1 province minors

Just a tip, when you wanna to surrender dont click unconditionally surrender. Just go to your peace deal and offer something. They normally take less "WS" in this scenario.

Love your videos, but I don't think the transfer vassalage was the right move with bohemia in paying 400 Diplo points to save 24 AE and that's just for the peace deal. Idk if it's a bug or something but how is it less Diplo points to vassalize Bohemia than it is one of it's Vassals. 200 points per is wack.
