GOTHIC INVASION is just PURE PLEASURE in EU4 Winds of Change

Gothic Invasion campaign playlist - • EU4 Gothic Invasion 1.37
Please note this wasn't created to be a Theodoro guide. I did no test runs and RNG in this region can vary a lot so a lot of steps could easier/harder for you. Treat this video as some key directions on how to laverage the new mission tree!

Theodoro was always my number one choice playing as an opn, and it was always a pleasant challenge for me. It's so good to see it getting a mission(I probably will never play it again and instead play my 200th Holland campaign )

11:10 the universal OPM experience. Taking 50 loans during your first one or two wars and having to deal with inflation. My last few campaigns were OPM starts so this feels all too familiar. It is a lot less painful now than it used to be thanks to the Burgher privilege and the Burgher agenda for inflation.

As a long time wiever (almost 4 years) i really enjoyed the chaotic succesion campaign with habibi and i would calmly suggest doing another one but this time you are the one ruining it , not always fixing and improveing the left overs

[@Hadar1991]

@@ZlewikkTV You know what is the difference between you and Laith? You are a competent player while Laith is entertaining. So it is nothing weird that Laith was suffering. :D And his viewers like Laith to suffer. :P

[@sizanogreen9900]

@@Hadar1991 I wouldn't say that Zlewikk isn't entertaining. I'd say Laith's content is more humour focused and doing ridiculous stuff while Zlewikk's is more serious and min-maxy.

[@keysersoze9777]

I hoped with the new changes they will change the theodoroian and trebizondian generic names. All the generals advisors and merchants have a greek first name and a turkish last name and all the turkish last names are former Trabzonspor football players last names. I dont know why paradox did this in first place and i really dont understand why they did not fix this.

Oh boy another $20 DLC, thank you Paradox.

[@sizanogreen9900]

I'll just pay the subscription when I want to play for a couple weeks... kinda regret buying the last couple dlc's as I have stopped regularly playing EU4 a while ago.

[@rileywilsonepicarcher9995]

Honestly, it doesn’t bother me with EU4 because the last 3 DLCs before this one are the best content Paradox has put out in recent memory. I haven’t played enough of this one to form an opinion yet, but it looks great. They’ve come a long way since leviathan.

[@sprites75]

Oh this will be a monster

[@Times_Ticking]

Well done!

[@nicholasbaca8065]

Somebody once told me to run a deficit and take loans to have good advisors and more mana.

[@drchaos2000]

i love this... is there any more small nations with good mission trees i didnt hear about in 1.37 ? i know austria and holland etc but those are main countries anyway

[@Schwizinberg]

Btw i discovered an ,,exploit"(?) I dunno if its an exploit just a game mechanic i suppose: there's a mission that gives you 3 dev In Prague every time you increase infrastructure and does not take it away once you decrease infrastructure, so you can pretty much indefinitely dev up prague for 50 base admin points (if you have modifiers active for even less) well thats that and enjoy 3000 dev prague in ironman save until it lasts

[@rafasobczak748]

New mission for nitra/moravia is also pleasure

That's why you don't bring vassals into such situations, but enable scutage. (re Trebizond access to GH). That being said, I need to open EU4 again and see if my old strat of allying Byz in their defensive war vs Otto would still have any chance.

[@redoputra1611]

Zlewikk, do you have any idea of consistent starting move for luristan? Without have to wait any timurid vassal declare independence and overlord army number fewer than countries supporting our independence. Thanks in advance for reading this

How dare they! I'm in the middle of Gothic invasion after 6 redos due to ultra aggro ottomans and paradox just now buffs Theodoro XD

[@timtrio9862]

Damn you are so good at Eu 4! Is theodoro trebizond or georgia now the best way to form byzantium with the modifiers?

[@ZlewikkTV]

I havent played the other two so no idea, but definitely Georgia has the easiest setup

[@timtrio9862]

I cannot exaggerate how upset I was when I saw that you didn't take Saratov or Etkara or something in your war with the Great Horde - What was the point of the war if you didn't even connect yourself with your PU!

[@ZlewikkTV]

Because these provinces were not required by the mission hence weren't as important in that war. We have access through Lithuania all the time anyway

[@CherriPicking]

I'll admit I don't have the mission in front of me, but I struggle to think of why the mission would require Ukek but not Saratov. I suppose my initial comment was a bit harsh, but I would've absolutely gone for Saratov over Ukek lol
