This 100% still works, although I found a little tip to make Aleksandr the leader of the Gentry faster: after firing all the Generals and Admirals, before exiling the first guy, grant Aleksandr command (you're gonna need the general anyways lol). Seems to guarantee he gets picked every time.

Honestly, tried this strategy when I first saw it a while ago. I could never get Aleksandr to become leader of the landowners not matter how many times i reloaded. Booted up the game, and that still seems to be the case. Usually i just get the same newly spawned characters over and over again.

[@afxdvsn]

You have to start a new game and do it all over again, not just reload. A lot of things are predetermined when you start a new game

[@strke5654]

Fire all landowner generals, grant command to Aleksandr, give him a royal marriage (make sure to pick the option that gives him some popularity) then exile the leader of the landowners. Since he is the most popular general he will automatically become the leader of the gentry assembly. Hope this helps.

Personally I don't feel like this is a glitch or anything like that, more or less a 4d chess move that only the politically adept could achieve without help and despite the secret being out most people probably still won't know to do and mess it up some how if they tried which fits Victoria 3 perfectly in my opinion

insane strats. well played. however, maybe i dont understand the taxing system too well.., but from my experience from previous patches lowering taxes barely does anything good. id even increase them and go for even more construction-sectors. instead of 500 construction you could have 1k and snowball so hard, that you can go pariah mode and puppet everyone. with enough GDP you eventually have so much prestige that there are no other great powers left..and major powers turn into minor powers..meaning theres even BETTER potential puppets..

[@fileleutheros2577]

Mistake 1. First tech is always stock exchange if you don't have it. Mistake 2 you get more construction points with wood frame at least until you have the first mine tech and have built coal mines at which point you can start to shift towards iron frame. Mistake 3 you don't jump tech tiers unless the benefit is huge(usually only steel frame construction, central planning, or market access tech). Here it's not needed.

[@fileleutheros2577]

Mistake 4 taxes in the early game especially in the places you core will be pitifull. But bureucracy is precious. Extremely so. Russia barely has enough bureacracy in the start to pass education which you desperataly need to find people with qualifications to employ. Anyway they are not running away, as bureucracy increases later on they can be cored then. It's two years for most of them. Only the caucasus is a 20 year wait(which is the reason that it is even less worth it to spend to core it now)
