In my humble 5k hours opinion Supremecy over the crown is the most important privilage after Mana. It will grant you higher equilibrion from all estates and also higher frequence of diets making it easier to boost loyalty.

[@brianbates212]

It doesn't make diets more frequent, it at most means you don't need to track the cooldown. OTOH it keeps you from timing the diet to suit your situation which combined with a bed set of missions can leave you worse off than no diet.

[@Naushikaa]

@@brianbates212 It actually does make it more frequent, the event is completely independant from the button's cooldown. It can't pop when you have an active mission, but if you do your button's mission fast, you can get a diet right after despite the apparent cooldown.

[@hadhamalnam]

I'm a beginner, I don't understand what the point of raising loyalty is if you're also increasing influence. Is there some mechanic to decrease influence as well, or do you just sort of live with the influence you've dealt out?

[@Luci_Fergusson]

​@@hadhamalnamyou can raise loyalty in many ways, same with influence. This can be done via random events, estate interactions, the diet, etc. Influence represents how much control over your society each estate has, their loyalty is how much they'd rather listen to you than do what they want. If they control more than they are loyal, they will no listen to you and you would be stuck with the privileges until you can get your loyalty higher than the influence. Its all about balancing their power and the benefits they give you.

I agree with this all in every situation, apart from for the timurids, they cannot have the +100% development debuff otherwise your vassals will all rebel. Once you annex 2or3 of your vassals you then give away your crown land as they will not have the liberty desire anymore

Going thru a new Timmy campaign rn. Gave away the lands but went to war with Ajam at the start, as u can take like 3/4 of Ajam cuz u have full cores on all of Ajam, u gain enough dev yo keep them all loyal.

Timurid's problem is that their vassals have too much strength, which is a different LD modifier from the LD due to subject dev. The +100% LD from dev actually does very little, and all you have to do is get one vassal loyal to let you instantly annex it and make all the others loyal.

As a newbie, once you figure out that you can get mana from estates and how to do it (as well as the indebted to Burgher loans), the game gets very easy on Single Player. I saw a noticeable downgrade in difficulty once I figured the Estates out. I usually win wars and I am typically ahead in the tech race against the AI now. It has made the game easy.

[@maddizzle1744]

@@lesnoyelf228 You don't 1v1 in eu4. You need to quickly find allies and they will help you in those wars against large countries. With Navarra, you should try and go for an alliance with a French or Italian nation. A good tip for finding allies is to look for nations that have rivaled whoever you're trying to go to war with, whether that be Castile or Aragon. If you rival your opponent, you will recieve a relation boost with countries who also rival them. You can also take the Religious Diplomats privilege from the Clergy, and this will give +25 relations from countries who have the same religion. This combo should boost your relations enough to secure alliances, and this will make wars much easier. When in wars, do your best to avoid attrition and take battles that you know you can win. As a small nation also, don't be afraid to take loans to buy mercenaries to secure early leads in wars. Keep them around as little as possible, but taking lots of money in peace deals against big countries will help you pay off the loans quickly, and you can essentially fuel early expansion on the effectively infinite money that loans provide.

[@alatamore]

Thank you for this video! I appreciate your explanation around the monopolies. I noticed immediately when you stopped recommending them and always wondered why. I still really like to use them, as I love merchantalism and the opinion increase with no influence increase. Often I use them early on to keep opinion up to allow seizure of crown lands every 5 years exactly. Once I have CL very high, I drop them.

[@LudietHistoria]

Glad I could shed some light on things Andrew!

[@turkepic3637]

Gang Lords were too much

[@francogf]

I agree with everything except the Initial Crownland strategy that you always do. I´ve always felt it too gamey and not really realistic from the point of running a nation. How much property in Lands was a big way of measuring the power of a monarch in its kingdom, at least I feel. and If you literally give away all of your possessions for temporal ducats to the estates, then the estates naturally should feel stronger than you. Thats why selling crown lands should increase influence, not loyalty, since the estates get more powerful, not more loyal. After all they have more lands, more tax revenue, more serfs from where to pull soldiers from. Why should they follow the orders of a so called king that owns pretty much nothing? I would replace the Estate Stuatory event that really does not solve the issue at hand since its so easy to negate the penalties from low crownlands, and straight up make having less than 10% of crownlands a trigger for a disaster, like a civil war or some such. Relinquishing all of your material power should not be a easy debuff to bear for 15 years.

[@SoldierGeneral64]

If I'm not mistaken the lower influence an estate has the more land you get to crownland when conquering land. So if you know you are doing early conquest, e.g. cores, might be good to hold off on increasing influence estates until afterward. Luckily +1 mana point ones don't increase influence. Based on the video though respective ownership of estates of country originally owning the land also matters.

[@willh7206]

Thank you for explaining why you go to 0% estates Ludi. I've always been put off by that autonomy bonus but now its worth assessing if the autonomy dip is worth the 300 monarch points and super start money!

[@samuele7098]

Tip: if you give 4 privileges to the nobility (or clergy if you are a theocracy or burghers if you are a Republic) you can't get the estate statutory rights event, which is very negative no matter what you choose. Also you don't need to wait a month to finish giving privileges, you can just give all the privileges you want before selling crown land, I think this way the estates influence is even higher and you should get even more money (not sure though)

[@j.vdubois5074]

[@theo-dr2dz]

It's two years later and things have changed A couple of privileges have disappeared. Probably the developers have also seen that some were too overpowered and others were basically pointless. I have never seen the monopolies, but they are mentioned on the wiki. Might be the wiki is not updated, might be a dlc thing. They fixed the math bug that made you start slightly below 30% long ago. But the basics still stand: the three monarch point privileges are the most important, just like the advisor cost privileges. Burgher loans are super powerful. They provide very cheap cash. If you have spare cash, pay off the burgher loans and give out the privilege again. You get new, larger loans. Use these to pay off any expensive bank loans and do whatever you want with the remainder. Loans give some inflation every time they are renewed but that can be countered with an anti-inflation advisor. Or buy 2% lower inflation for monarch points when it runs out of control. Strong duchies and integration policy are very good if you have 2 or more subjects. For the rest, crank up loyalty equilibrium above 50% and keep influence as low as possible.Seize land whenever possible. Either when all loyalty is over 50% or crush the rebels. If you like the Pope, consider church sanctuaries. You will be building churches anyway, and every church gives Pope points and some extra tax. Try not to spam the diet too much. Every time you summon the diet, all estates gain influence temporarily, but these terms overlap, so they can accumulate quite a bit of influence from diet summoning. It is in the tooltip. Just let a few of these timeout and summon the diet again. There are nice bonuses there.

why my crownlands stand at 25% non stop even if I seize lands from estates?

[@Crimsonfangg]

I made the mistake of grabbing estate statutory rights one time and I literally couldn't get rid of it until I adjusted the estates loyalty with a console command. I think If I had avoided grabbing other privileges, I'd have been fine, but that 25% autonomy hit to a fledgling country like florence was very debilitating. I'm not sure I want to try that again. I think it is important to note that having 60% influence does improve the benefit of the buffs that the estates give, though. I like to sit around 60 loyalty/influence.

[@LudietHistoria]

I build courthouses in every province, super worth it!

[@Konleb]

But what is the benefit of courthouses?

[@LudietHistoria]

@@Konleb lowers autonomy passively, lowers governing cost

[@Racnive]

Crownland gain from conquering provinces is incorrect. The previous owner's crownland is irrelevant, what matters are: how much influence your estates have, how much absolutism you have, your current crownland, your added development, and your total development. Your equilibrium Crownland is (60 + absolutism)/(60 + absolutism + total estate influence), and every province you annex brings you closer to that equilibrium by (equilibrium - current crownland) * (development added / total new development). Thus the further you are from your equilibrium, the more you gain/lose when you annex development. This formula also determines the equilibrium for your estates: Their equilibrium is (their influence) / (60 + absolutism + total estate influence). So in your peace deal, the Bourgeoisie had moderate influence but little land, so they gained some land. The nobility had a ton of land, and moderate influence, so they lost substantial land. The clergy had a little bit too much land, so they lost a little. You had almost no land, so you gained a fair amount. E.G.: if you had 100 dev, 0 absolutism, 0 crownland, and total estate influence of 120%, and added 100 dev, your equilibrium crownland is (60 / 180 = 33.33%), and your new crownland is (60/180 - 0) * (100 / 200) = 30/180 = 16.67%, since you just gained half your total development (100/200).

The wiki states that crownland is divided when taken in war according to the influence of each estate. (And the player has 60 influence + absolutism) So if you keep estate influence low you can gain a lot of crownland from wars, and if you keep 3 estates at 60 influence you will gradually move towards 25 crown land. (since 100% is divided evenly between estates with equal influence) If you have 4 estates it's even worse. Then the question also becomes if high influence estates give more bonuses than having high crown land?

Are you sure your explanation of crownland redistribution via conquest was correct? When I looked it up, it was a formula in which you have an equilibrium of crownland and estatesland based on their influence and your absolutism.

[@XXxXxXRevanXxXxXX]

Each nation has an equilibrium of their crownland based on the influence of their estates and their absolutism. Having 60% influence with each estate (which you want), will push your crownland equilibrium to about 25%, so you’ll want to constantly seize land/develop.

I develop them, give them money, buildings, and land if need be. But they have small armies, what is your take on this?
