Briarstone really needs to expand north and take his Coptic Holy Sites

[@laurenwolfe7812]

It always amazes me just how quickly time passes if you never pause the game.

[@canislupus103]

This is a really enjoyable play through.

[@smittywerbenjagrmanjensen2211]

watching his ships just sitting the gulf of aden, doing nothing.. those poor sailors were promised adventure and wealth yet their overlord orders them to float idly in one spot edit: heeeees done it

[@sabberi]

At least the idle Yemeni sailors could converse about European geopolitical turmoils. Meanwhile, curious yet anchored Ethiopian pirates would get bored out of their minds.

[@MrTohawk]

At least they're getting paid.

[@sabberi]

Once that maintenance slider goes down though - lesser things would make your family back on the coastline territory province to say they saw omenous comets

[@pierrelundqvist8443]

Just checking: Briarstone is the leadsinger of the band Crash Test Dummies,riiiiiight?

[@TheManInRoomFive]

Always have lvl 1 advisers. 1 ducat for 1 monarch point is simply too good.

[@tomregor7407]

only if you have the money for it...

[@Ranulf13]

the moment quill notis he didnt made the king the general ;-) no you made a normal general :-)

[@shauncagney2811]

Quill not using the development cost edict...it hurts me so...

[@RealMothman98]

Durres starts the game owned by Venice but there is an Albanian core on the province. The Ottomans must've conquered Albania only for someone to force Venice to release it due to Skanderbeg not being the ruler of Albania.

[@HJT454]

anyone know what music mod he's using?

[@nox5555]

did albania move one province? did they beat venice?

[@markomitosevic9412]

which dlcs are you using?

[@captzulu1764]

all of em i think certainly most

[@itsmelewisable]

All of them. Paradox sends Quill a copy of each of the dlc's when they come out.

[@markomitosevic9412]

wow i thought they only sent him the vanilla version damn ,its good to be a popular youtuber :P

[@tyed6482]

Marko Mitosevic he could probably make enough money in one video to buy all the dlcs anyway

[@markomitosevic9412]

thats true

[@TJBot]

No more KSP I quess

[@poilboiler]

Why would anyone take Expansion? Exploration is so much better for colonization and other idea groups are also much better at what they do than Expansion is at anything. It's better than Naval at least.

[@pandamage22]

poilboiler If you're a colonizer it's worth it to take both

[@karenarmstrong8141]

if you want full on colonizing exploration is much better but if your going for his playstyle geting the merchant and the other buffs would be better

[@KzintiCV]

Nice far eastern music. Fits Arabia great. Multiplayer EU4 is great to watch, or at least put in the background and listen to

[@furkansahinkara730]

as kasmird ı attacked someone then timurids came an at the midddle of war 4 nations ripped that guy ı got 3,4 provinces then coaliton

[@TheCookieRave]

Going to be funny when the Ottomans come

[@TheTuksi]

woooooooooo

[@mirthfulbuddha]

Don't move your trade node to Alexandria, I've done that in the past and it always sucks because you make less money until you get all the land and autonomy is low. Plus all of Europe pulls trade to Genoa and Venice

[@Zeratulr]

Wow, quality as a first idea is an... interesting choice. =)

[@OttAllik]

We need more of this!
