Since forming Tuscany now grants its missions a fun way to get a bunch of events, cheap advisors, tech and idea cost reductions etc is quickly conquering Florence before fully coring stuff outside of Milan, culture shifting to Tuscan then going Milan -> Tuscany (-> Sardinia Piedmont if you want to go wide) -> Italy, keeping Tuscan ideas for playing tall

Hey Golem you know my opinion lets see another part of this series! As always thank you for the great content and keep up the amazing work!

[@DreuxVince]

Honey wake up, a new Golem video just dropped

[@Lagrandiosapizza]

Hi mate, you should stream the whole play on Twitch, I'd follow and would like to see the details. You're much more natural in the explanations than Florry for example.

[@GolemEnt]

Thanks man, good to hear that you like my explanations! Definitely wanna do some streams in the future. Unfortunately, right now i don't have time for it, but it'll happen

[@wheezy1587]

Golem I played Netherlands bc of your vids, I've never done so well in eu4 before lol. I got the united crowns and I'm naval hegemon with over 1,000 dev above the next great power.

[@GolemEnt]

Cool! Yep, that naval hegemon mission is a cherry on top of the cake

[@tigrecito48]

i didnt realise papal controller gets ae reduction.. i never normally go for it cos id usually rather spend my points on the other bonuses, and in my experience, the ai nearly always wins... when i played once as the pope, papal state, i literally lost 3 out of 4 of them when i had around 70-80% chance of winning

[@juncheok8579]

My method is to just spend 5 influence on it, it's not that much wasted for an infinite (anything is infinitely better than 0%) increase in chance

[@Furin1521]

Hi from that area 😝😍 Nice video

[@Yacovo]

Hooray for Munich, great power of the HRE. Thanks for the video.

I prefer the ambrosian republic over the military dictatorship. The dictatorship reform you can get later on is better since it give a additional leader pip

[@Burno01]

Albania take notes on the forts in Milan

[@tigrecito48]

I've got a challenge for you. (and I'm not sure its possible) Its called: The VENI VITI VICI challenge. (I came, I wined, I conquered) The challenge is to form VITI, then form THE ROMAN EMPIRE. And... as an extra... own all of the wine provinces in the world!

[@onetap5838]

Something in ante bellum would be nice

[@teddys5775]

Military dictatorship is rng OP. I got so many sack rt for mana events I had mana coming out of my ears

you're right, i was surprised how often it fired

yesss

[@nuttsmasher9252]

Milan part 2 ftw!

[@tigrecito48]

is there a mission in milan also to upgrade forts early? like in savoy? or did you use savoys mission to get forts? whats the best play to get maxed forts? level 8/9s? does it involve changing nation 3 times? i was playing an extreme playing tall playthru recently.. using tons of buffs and what i noticed is i build units super quick in extremely high dev provinces and i had super economy.. so i could put a fort in 100% of my provinces.. i basically took everything that improved forts or made them cheaper.. so in 1600s i had level 6 forts in every province and enemies and rebels had no chance to siege me down.. enemies needed 28k troops.. not sure if some other things increase the number of troops needed? does dev do it? i was basically a religious nation theological with innovative, divine, defensive, infrastructure, trade & later i would take economic ideas. it was probably the best ive ever done in the game.. not only super economy but impossible for anyone to take even one province of mine

[@tigrecito48]

would it be possible to be a stateless society plus a free city in the hre? without doing it as a custom nation or by cheating? cos then ud get super defensive bonuses right? or can only monarchies be in the hre?

[@GolemEnt]

Pretty sure these are both tier 1 gov reforms, so you can't mix them together

[@tigrecito48]

@@GolemEnt is there any way to play as a free city and still have a good time? or would it be boring? i assume you can still get vassals & do wars for money and forcing others religion.. and maybe become elector or even hre emperor eventually? or does being a free city stop many things?

[@youtuberobbedmeofmyname]

the level 4 forts are the most useless thing in the world. why get them early when you just pay more for upkeep? The earlier you have more money, the faster you snowball so getting level 4 forts is actually a hinderance to mid game snowballing.
