Even if 4 ducats/month for 50 PP was less worth it than 3 ducats/month for 1/1/1 advisors, the strongest part of it is that you can stack those two. 2/2/2 advisors will be ~12 ducats, but 1/1/1 advisors + 50 PP from support rebels will be ~7 ducats. The difference becomes even more stark when you go to 3/3/3 or 2/2/2 + 50 PP.

[@jackcranmer4904]

I really wish the AI wasn’t as incompetent as it generally is, I love the idea of using all the subterfuge, trade embargoes, privateering and eventually full scale war to fight a rival on multiple fronts but the best way of dealing with rivals is just fighting them normally and ignoring most of the mechanics :(

[@thestudentYT]

Yeah but as I showed you cannot do that just because you want to at any time right? If you play as Spain and have a Colonial Game and your only valid rival are the Ottomans... you still wouldn`t want to fight them every 15 right? And I also showed that for small-medium sized nations (like Scotland, Bohemia or cyprus) you are often simply to weak to win a war against your rivals and their allies so that a big war would be more expensive than speniding money on supporting rebels every 5 years right?

[@kmonsen]

@@thestudentYT Yeah but you can still trivially one faith as Spain, so starting as Castile you really don't need any of these advanced tactics. I just thought of 3 different achievements I want to use this for so thank you very much!

[@zaikolebolsh5724]

Yeah sounds cool but knowing how the AI works(and kinda already does with disscontent subterfuge option, yeah AI uses that Ottomans always do it) you would end up with your 3 rivals supporting rebels every single time at every single opportunity, going even into bankrupt to fund those rebels( very commonly i see enemies peacing out of wars, even at a loss just to face the player, or even lettung other AI fully siege them just to attack you). I would love this things being more udable by AI, but with the state of the current AI it would end up being obnoxious at the very least. Still AI can use some other diplomatic optios, although rarely, like selling provinces which is rare, so much i only saw it happen 4 times in 500 hours and now they can ask you for the intitutions spread, which is very nice

[@haileselassie5771]

Also with Espionage, you can support separatist rebels ~2-3 years before declaring war on someone (so for example start spying ~4 years before truce is up for the spy network bonuses and support a rebel faction too) and if rebels pop up during war, you let them do their thing, and you might get lucky and a new tag pops out for you to then diplo-vassalize/declare war on immediately afterwards, allowing you to take more land. Caveat: if you call in allies or let vassals act independently, they will be hostile to the rebel troups and might mess things up... You can also support pretender rebels IF they've already fired in big nations' personal union subjects, like Austria's Hungary or Poland's Lithuania, or Castille's Aragon & Naples, and actually find the unique "enforce rebel demands" peace option actually useful for once... While yes, you can break the PU's by spending 200 bird mana and 100% of the warscore normally without this, it allows you to save the mana and potentially get it done for less than 100% warscore cost.

[@thestudentYT]

Enforcing Rebel demands always takes exactly 50% warscore and costs no diplo points at all... so supporting pretender rebels of PU's would save you half the warscore and 200 dip mana :)

The cb thing fits the emperor dealing with protestantism really good video

[@LibertyMonk]

It's useful in the super early game for power projection, but like everything else that scales based on income, it becomes not worth thousands of ducats for a small gain anymore. You can get into manipulating your trade income, but that gets gamey and half of a thousands of ducats is still thousands of ducats. That said, the CB without borders is powerful, especially when you're trying to do something weird before you can get good CBs. There's a reason Paradox made the AI refuse all loans from the player, and why Deus Vult got moved to the end of the idea group.

[@stefanbatory6752]

I use it when I'm in a war and they pop out for an opponent, as it makes rebels unable to siege down the provinces you have occupied 😁

[@johnny-smith]

Often times I need to open up a new front for AE juggling but have no one to dec on, and I refuse to no CB, so supporting rebels for the CB may actually be really useful. I’m not convinced the PP is worth the huge investment early game though unless you’re a pirate or something that gets money from an unorthodox source

[@johnny-smith]

Mainly because I find PP is usually easy enough to get just through taking your rival’s land in most cases

[@LibertyMonk]

Yeah, in most cases, you can get PP by choosing smaller nations to Show Strength bully or fully annex. But if you're midsized or in a hugbox, it's a decent option so you don't have to fully maintain your troops and forts and deal with mercenaries or reinforcing etc. It's not worth it most of the time, but now and then it's the best play, so it's good to keep the possibility in mind.

[@mischadebrouwer9855]

Going to war is support of your rebels has its own achievement. It costed me quite a long time to understand that a few years ago, just because I was achievement hunting.

Depends on your campaign. Three Mountains basically requires you to start with a no CB

[@andreasanastasiadis2950]

There is still one big reason why a no CB might be useful and that is time. If something needs to go fast, you can't wait a year for the spynetwork and another for the rebels.

[@sorsocksfake]

Note that the starting case wasn't optimized. You could probably get to the 50 PP with about 2 ducats/mo in this situation, and often you just need to fill a gap of 10 PP or so. That's kinda useful where scornfuls only cover it part of the time. Otherwise the cost is imo prohibitive, it's hard to make that money back in 5 years and you'll want those loans available for your actual war, which would usually be the way to get that PP long-term. Better for trade-based nations of course, or when you use others as piggybanks. Hordes probably don't need it much though. The 'cb on any nation' application can be useful in specific situations, but you'd need to already be fairly rich to use it, and it takes proper timing and having the spy network in place already. Overall, it's not an awful mechanic, but I'd love for it to get a proper rework. Where perhaps you could first foster a revolt, but then send manpower, gold etc, to make the revolt more powerful. Though it might be game-spoiling when the AI does it on you.

Just tried this in my current game as Pegu (the coastal nation in Burma), and it's been very useful! A particularly large rebel stack popping off in Ayutthaya let me conquer Thailand, the constant 50 PP let me keep up in tech and ideas without Innovative despite needing to conquer a lot of smaller states to reach the power level of my rivals, and now that I've reached the point where I'd rather buy monuments than get 15 PP from Bahmanis, I'm using it for Old World colonialism. I've just surpassed Bahmanis by taking Sri Lanka as a vassal via rebels and using it with Maritime Ideas to distract them with a second front- despite having zero espionage or colonial ideas and my nearest frontier being all the way in Bengal; it cost me about 140 ducats and gained me the start of a worldwide empire. (Funding a small rebellion in a small nation is just as cheap no matter how big you get, after all.) It's given me just enough range to take Socotra, and I'm planning to use it as an outpost to invade Adal and set up a vassal beachhead there. The Ottomans are going to start feeling the effects of decadence soon, and without Support Rebels I'd have to conquer half the known world just to interact with them!

[@goopsta9375]

I’ve seen support rebels to be very useful before in a situation where you cut off military access to a nation (classic example being byz supporting bulgarians in ottoman) but I never knew it gave you power projection or a cb. I assume the cb doesn’t appear if you have a truce with that nation or maybe I wasn’t paying attention, but the fact you can actually take provinces or vassalize compared to a lot of the other niche cbs is pretty crazy. Never noticed the power projection either, even though it is only 5 years. But for early game PP generation it is actually pretty game changing for me. Thanks for the great info as always!

[@marinmilevoj4829]

Amazing video man!

[@ItsGroundhogDay]

Never once supported rebels or even considered it, but this is so informative about how it can actually be useful. Even if you don't buy that it's worth the expense for PP, the CB is nice.

[@55ziomal55]

To be honest, I really don't mind EU4's "support rebels" to be borderline useless. In EU3 the "support revolt" was stupidly overpowered in certain situations, especially after you had beaten a country, deleted their army and they had either uncored provinces or -3 stability. It was an unstoppable death spiral. The way "support revolt" mission worked was it had a fixed cost of 1 spy + 25 ducats, and it gave a flat +3% revolt risk modifier to a province (in EU3 every province had an individual risk, there wasn't a country wide revolt like in EU4 and the modifier was actually stackable from what I recall) and the mission had a 45% chance of instantly spawning new rebels who would also act like allies if you declared war on that country.

[@adsan7787]

Whenever I have to fight ottomans in the midgame and I already have way more than enough income, I use the spy network, that I built during the war for siege anyway, to support rebels in the end of/after the war. It slows down their recovery somewhat, so that I can proxy-war them right after I core what I took and take some more free land while they are still low on manpower and their armies are scattered

[@Tudsamfa]

Oh hey, I rewrote the wiki page for this not too long ago. Though I completely missed how much power projection one could get from this for relatively few ducats. Perhaps the best way to get Power projection for nations with "irregular income" like Morroco or New Providence. Would probably also work extremely well with the -100% autonomy change cooldown built I've been tinkering with... though by the time you can have -100, Power projection is probably already maxxed. One thing about the CB: Rebels actually can't revolt if no province of theirs has unrest. So those big Noble or Particularists Rebel groups can sit at 100% revolt chance, but will never actually revolt until the AI gets some war exhaustion/stab hits and their national unrest increases.

[@BrunoM101]

You've made some good points but they are only valid is very niche situations. Scotland, Cyprus case are great examples. Basically when you're playing a nation that can't war their rivals because they are too strong, supporting rebels is the only way to gain power projection in the short term. But your example of Bohemia is disingenuous. They are not limited to rivaling Hungary, Poland or Denmark. You can easily rival Brandeburg or Saxony and get the "Humiliate rival" CB and suing for "Show strength" which is way stronger. That's 2 wars that will certainly cost you less than whatever gold you're gonna spend on supporting rebels and give you 60 power projection and 200 of each mana. The "anywhere in the world CB" part is also incredibly niche with that Papal State example for the achievement. And that example also has a couple of flaws in it's own right. When supporting rebels they do not gain any modifiers, they do not spawn a bigger stack, they don't have any added discipline or moral or even a general. This means a country can, for the most part, deal with them immediately after they spawn, making you basically waste money if they're killed before the month tick. There is also, as far as I am aware, no in-game option to get a notification of rebels spawning in a country of interest. So you need to check every month for that black stripped province which is beyond annoying. If you're supporting rebels before a revolt it's a huge commitment for something that will most times not even work because, like you said yourself, an average spawn of rebels takes longer than the support rebels duration, can be dealt with military points and a lot can change in those years before they spawn. The country of interests alliances for example and also your own context in the game. I'm also not sure how you're going to get military access between you (The Papal State) and the Livonian Order. Don't get me wrong I enjoy learning about the game and you've presented good options so I'm thankful for the video.

[@thestudentYT]

Thanks for the Comment! I never said it was very strong or something anyways but even on what you mentioned sadly there are a lot of things that are simply wrong: 1. I couldn't rival anyone else as Bohemia... It is simply wrong what you said as there where no Brandenburg or Saxony available as Rivals in that Ironman Start that I did... the only 4th Nation that I could have selected was Lithuania which doesn't help either way 2. Actually the Supported Rebels get buffed Stats... so again it's simply not true what you said: The Rebel Stack get's the exact same Combat Stats as the supporting Nation has... I had a Game recently where my Ruler was Strict and in a battle that my supported Rebels fought you could literally hover over their Discipline Stat in the battle screen and see the "Strict" modifiers for +5% Discipline 3. There are easy other ways as for example insulting other nations to update your CBs so you have a 100% chance of getting the CB as long as you see the rebels uprising which is also pretty easy because they lift the fog of war for you and are shown as a blue allied Army in the otherwise Grey landscape... So again thanks for the comment but I just wanted to get this right here :)
