You can stop the Dutch revolt simply by moving your capital to the Lowlands/Low Countries region, without culture-switching even.

[@DankusMemicus]

Yeah, but you have to do it before the Dutch revolt starts making any progress.

[@kristiyanpeev9574]

@@DankusMemicus In my Burgundy run I did it as it was ticking, but that was 1.33, might've been changed in 1.34.

[@DankusMemicus]

@@kristiyanpeev9574 Oh... I read that in the forums so I didn't bother doing it in my Burgundy run. Would've made it less annoying... still ended up forming Rome though.

[@Vhailor_Mithras]

Well, it's easier to keep revolts from spawning by stating and accepting their cultures. With good planning you can keep the revolt risk low, no problem.

[@DankusMemicus]

@@Vhailor_Mithras The problem is that even if one province in the Low Countries goes Protestant/Reformed, the disaster makes progress. I had to give a few non-Catholic provinces to a Dutch vassal.

I love the moment when Burgundy said "It's PU time!" and then PU'ed all over the Europe. Truly a moment of a lifetime

There are, believe it or not (/s), not many volcanoes in the territory that makes up Burgundy in EU4, but the area of Germany just to the northeast of Luxembourg (slightly northwest of the German city of Koblenz, which is between Mainz and Bonn) is what we call the Eifel Volcanic Field. About 13000 years ago, a volcano there erupted with about the force of the 1991 eruption of Pinatubo-VEI 6. The caldera it left behind now contains a lake called Laacher See.

"This also means no vassals." I think I just threw up in my mouth a little.

[@THEFEZFEZ]

You can take Diplo and Influence. Just turn off the idea thing in the settings. It's still iron man. That setting is meant for multiplayer.

[@notasalmon238]

Burgundy kinda be the nation of atwix (that or like Austria or Muscovy or Poland) but that’s beside the point

[@matthewhannigan1916]

As burgundy there is a potential opportunity for a pu with Portugal really early on. The starting consort is the same dynasty as the child heir of Portugal, so if you are diligent, there would be a small window in which you can claim their throne and declare war (they m ight be allied to Castile, but then you can just ally them, no-cb Morroco and call Castile in while invading Portugal). Unfortunately, subject Portugal is unlikely to take exploration ideas because of how early you get them, but its still another pu expansion route.

[@grubygrzib6308]

PU portugal not taking exploration ideas is no longer a thing, I PU'ed them multiple times before they took explo ideas, but they picked them either way

[@David-bh7hs]

This is accurate, technically the burgundian dynasty is a branch of the house of Portugal

[@truegamer_007]

@@grubygrzib6308 Was it before they took admin tech 4? Maybe they'd already selected the idea group but not taken any ideas.

[@granockss9548]

@@David-bh7hs you mean the old burgundian house, from the count of burgundy The younger house is from valois ergo capet

[@grubygrzib6308]

@@truegamer_007 even if you somehow PU them at the start of the game theyll take the exploration ideas, this bug is fixed already

[@jameslevy9964]

I liked the start and it kept on getting better going forward. Magnificent work.

[@GenBrony]

Burgundy forming Lotharingia is one of my favorite ways to play. Getting Chivalry isn't dead when you've conquered from the Lowlands to Italy feels rather satisfying.

[@pingu7471]

Okay that looks real fun please continue the run

[@bradleystevens4618]

I want to see you do a classic Quarbit speedrun of forming Scandinavia in 1.34, now that missions allow it to be formed with no tech requirement

AI gets to cheat with the forts and it's annoying.

[@meili4790]

Pls do continue the video! I love PU runs :D

[@kylekelly1167]

I was fighting Ming yesterday as Japan. I landed to troops in his southern lands he chased after them with 100k troops while my army was on the other side lol.

[@nikos6377]

You could have tried to get a PU on Portugal while having a de Avis regency, often they don't have an heir then

[@Arthur-jx8bm]

Atwix's guide is amazing, RIP.

[@PSIRockOmega]

I'd love to see how far you could take this one.

[@martenkahr3365]

The fort mechanics are pretty easy: If the AI has any legal path to a province, they can ignore all forts and march to the target province using the shortest path, instead of having to use the actual legal path; even if some provinces along the way are not legal for them to enter. In this case, they probably had a legal path to (and over) the strait crossing via military access, which allowed them to ignore all the forts and go straight to your army.

[@richardbruner2674]

hey thx for the video, great as always! I was wondering: how did you get the notification that an heir from your dynasty pop up in Bohemia? Is it a mod or a setting? Thx!

[@QuarbitGaming]

you can change your message/popup settings

[@justjustin4426]

hi is it a mod that makes your events have paintings on them? it looks so cool and different from when i get events in-game, kinda want to have that as well ☺️☺️☺️

Does anyone have the link to that infographic? i would be very thankfull.

[@MrSaywutnow]

Enforcing culture means your PU subject will be in the same culture group as you, which increases your chance of inheriting them by 5%. Not particularly useful, but better than nothing I guess.

[@flimpeenflarmpoon1353]

I thought it would be provence

[@kylekelly1167]

The enforce is weird you speed the dilpo points then they just accept the old culture.

[@Emanon...]

PU missions are a very lazy mechanic from a game design perspective. Running your own PU diplo-conquest is so much more fun!

[@ardagunal3641]

Denmark would be the best nation for this challenge. They get a unique goverment that gives -40 years to time until integration.

“As long as these two queens rule at the same time, there won’t be the Iberian wedding” damn, homophobic EU4 😔
