In this video titled EU4 A to Z - THIS PRIMITIVE NATION Can CRUSH The SPANISH EMPIRE I do a playthrough as Cusco in Europa Universalis 4 1.34 Lions of The North. This is the series titled A to Z where I attempt to play every* nation in EU4 in alphabetical order. Of course I had to remove some nations so the challenge doesn't get too boring. In this video I play as the nation of EU4 A to Z - THIS PRIMITIVE NATION Can CRUSH The SPANISH EMPIRE and I attempt to form Inca and defeat the strongest colonial empire, in this case Spain. So, let's see if I managed to do it! I hope you guys enjoy this series. If you enjoyed this video consider leaving a like and subscribing for more content in the future.

[@hueytlahtoani1304]

The Inca and Aztecs really needs new mission trees. The Aztecs have so much potential, there should be an alternate path where they use their Pacific coastline to trade with China and Japan, and to get a foothold in Philippines (just like the Spanish did irl).

[@amir_iceking]

And their ideas needs to be BUFFED Aztecs specially

[@sizanogreen9900]

@@amir_iceking I feel like the missions are more important. Especially if done well they could present lasting modifiers making up for earlier, ideally historic weaknesses after actually having done something to overcome them.

[@hueytlahtoani1304]

@@sizanogreen9900 I agree, mission trees act like a guide for the run and adds ton of flavour in the process, making it impossible to be boring. Aztec and Inca campaigns can get you bored easily after defeating hordes upon hordes of Europeans just to be a big blob in America. Adding a colonial game to it would make them way more enjoyable.

[@antevernersson7387]

They should have missions to become high American

[@danielhambraeus735]

They need to get the Burghers Estate priviledge that removes inflation increase from gold mines tbh. Mali gets it, Norway gets it a few other gets it. Aztecs and Incans deserve it too.

It's hard for me to see those colonists unutilized throughout the game :(

[@chekiefloofderg4997]

It's something I can't stress enough: whoever walks through uncolonized land should get a 5% attrition instantly. Thats land with no substance nor infrastructure...how the heck would you be able to feed 30k+ men?

[@LibertyMonk]

foraging/hunting, travel rations, trading with natives, etc. Then again, attrition on boats is BRUTAL crossing the ocean, so I see your point.

[@Hazel_Velociraptor]

So, one thing you can do is release a subject once you've spawned an institution, have them embrace it, and reform off them. Or at least that used to work, not sure if it does on current patch.

[@nwahnerevar9398]

Fun fact: the first nation I played in EU4 was the nation of Wanka because their name is funny.

[@Silver-fh6ii]

[@daveyV9946]

Imerina is Malagasy culture, which are a culture from a mix of Austronesians from Borneo and African cultures from mainland Africa both settled Madagascar. So you could unite Madagascar and East Africa as well as Conqueor all of Indonesia.

Happy to see you playing the Incans! had some very fun runs with them in the past

[@madddd1]

During your war with Spain they most likely took their age ability, you know the -30% shock damage received

[@Noyfb33]

I did a campaign as Cusco to Incan Empire that ended with the A Sun God achievement. I fought off multiple invasions from Portugal, Spain, France, and Great Britain. My advice to anyone playing this nation: after conquering the other natives, focus on defense and colonizing. I had a lot of fun and actually found the achievement to not be incredibly hard to get even though it’s listed as Very Hard on the wiki.

[@romanianturk2101]

Im so happy its an actual successful run instead of you screaming "WOOO I DEFEATED NATION X" while bankrupt, 8 corruption and -3 stab. But no, this is an actual success! Great game!

[@bender42069]

As Imerina, become a pirate republic where your pirates have the most trade power in the Caribbean. As a bonus, own all the pirate monuments.

[@SyamuNekoSan]

Year 9 of EUIV. No Incan mission tree yet, nice PDX

[@Rosemarie_and_tomato]

Ming, Persia, Mamluks need them more Plus, current mission tree is like from 1.24? How much, 4 years ago?

[@GwainSagaFanChannel]

Its kinda sad that inca in eu4 doesnt reach peak inca empire height even the mapuche nation has an event of the official war they had with inca

[@KuhulAjawMapGaming]

I think the Andean tags have an advantage compared to Tupiniquim or Arawak. The latter two are right next to where Castile and Portugal first colonize; they can get conquest cbs and have the motivation to conquer you because of your proximity (“wants one of your provinces”). I played Arawak and conquered in the Andes but then Castile could keep demanding my land in peace deals, asking me to concede colonial regions. There is more time for Spain and portugal to settle and form colonial nations, so then Spain might not directly declare on you. Also, you can conquer their cns and get institutions, catch up and fight them. Often it helps to get European Allie, if possible.

[@x0lopossum]

12:53 WOW THAT'S WHAT YOU LOOK LIKE RED HAWK!!!! You look awesome, surprise face reveals always catch me off guard.

[@Rosemarie_and_tomato]

Currently, Sunda has a mission to flip into Cirebon or Banten. Both have unique (and supergood) ideas

[@wolfman5062]

My man Red Hawk... Just a small suggestion for you here. When you're wars with Europeans are going good, you take those lands they are colonizing from them. Their provinces are a fraction of the adm to core them up, and often give zero over extension. Plus, you can often get ones that are hiding behind Terra Incog as well. You just have to scroll way down in the warscreen province list to find the colonial provinces that can be taken. You can get a LOT of lands from them IF your capital is in the New World. I'm just saying... In your peace deal with Spain, there may have been better options...

Could you please make a guide for one of the Japanese starting nations. Doesn't matter which one, just would like to see how to play them and maximise them proper, what their advantages are, etc.

[@KuhulAjawMapGaming]

Oda is really good militarily, your land leader siege and fire could take you far with them. Then you become independent and take the shogunate from Ashikaga. Ashikaga is really good for stacking vassal force limit and vassal income. The shogunate government is basically like the revoke the privilegia vassals in the hre. Japan as a united tag has decent ideas but the shogunate government is much better imo. Some people like exploiting to get So as a wukou pirate republic shogun. I wouldn’t bother with exploration because you can’t steer as much trade back to Japan. As shogun, you’d probably want to conquer in the steppes and get at least near Lithuania or Georgia for institutions. Admin, Influence, Offensive, Quality, Humanist.

[@Rosemarie_and_tomato]

@@KuhulAjawMapGaming really? As Japan go through whole Eurasia stepp to border institutions?

[@KuhulAjawMapGaming]

@@Rosemarie_and_tomato Or you could dev up, but you’d have to be a better tall player than me for that. The horde shock advantage and cavalry would suck to face early. If you go wide then you can avoid the mana cap somewhat. If you get map knowledge and nocb biapas then you can skip the steppe. Institutions would reach you quicker than most of east Asia.

[@Rosemarie_and_tomato]

@@KuhulAjawMapGaming it's nearly better to dev institutions for any country, even with no bonuses for dev Exceptions are quite a few, like if institution spawned in a neighbor province

[@KuhulAjawMapGaming]

@@Rosemarie_and_tomato I think that the advantage of deving for institutions decreases as the total development increases (especially when spread over many provinces). Once as Muscovy I spent a lot of mana deving Neva and Novgorod. Reaching renaissance embracement in 10% of dev still took time for the institution to spread to other provinces. Two reasons why you would want to conquer west as a shogun: the chance to vassalize more daimyos, and to conquer provinces which have embraced newer institutions. I find that institution spread vs deving is viable in Poland or anywhere further west. That said, getting colonialism in Oceania before Europe could be great. I’ll have to give deving institutions a second chance.

Inca was probably one of my most fun games. Did the usual starting thing; competed with Spain a bit for control of South America, after adopting technology, they stopped hating me somehow and I was able to kick them out. Colonized into Kongo, took over a huge chunk of Africa, looking at the world map, I controlled quite a huge piece. But then in the end, when I went toe to toe with the European for real, I just got rekt to bad. I almost couldn't believe it. Several hundreds of hours into the game at that point at least, but even so, still. I stopped the run at that point, but still. Possibly one of my favorite ones to this date.
