Your videos are much different from other EU4 creators. I like that it's not just the early game over and over. You actually play into the later parts of the game.
Incredible content! I truly hope you can make a name for yourself in the EU4 community - the quality, style and accuracy of your guides is astonishing and, frankly, something I've never found on youtube before. Also thanks for taking my suggestion on doing a Korea run! I knew the tag was pretty great this last patch but watching someone with your kind of expertise give it a go is really entertaining and informative to watch!
It would be so nice if there was an "auto-convert" button added where your missionairies will convert every province in order in the menu by themselves
Thanks! awesome video as always, i love playing as korea in grand-strategy games. I can't wait to play korea on EU5 or CK3(expansion) if they ever come out lol
Korea's loads of fun. I enjoy optimizing for tall gameplay, seizing the mandate of heaven, and turbo-developing China. They're also good for colonizing, but I personally find colonial gameplay a little tedious. Also, keep making videos, chief. You're very good.
This guy rocks. I was surprised to find out the channel is less than a year old when I went to find more videos. The quality of the videos makes it seem like he’s been doing this for years. Keep it up.
Great video. I personally play Korea fairly often, and nowadays, the 'meta' so to speak is to immediately go for Ming's throat after they get their first bad mandate hit and lose their manpower, around tech 5 or 6. Going court first helps stabilize your mandate immensely after you take the emperorship early like this. Anyway, next run I'd suggest is Aragon. You can become a peasant republic and get a 30 year old 5/6/4 godlike ruler right off the bat. I'm playing peasant Aragon right now and it's a ton of fun. You can play super aggresively and just destroy Castile and Portugal.
Imo the best strat is to take the inward focus for thé first 20 years so you can fullfill all the basics missions and pop off real fast after 1464 with a very strong economy and giga cheap advisors
21:00 Attacking Ming's tributaries (e.g. Korchin) immediately after a ~100% war with Ming itself can be a good idea to shorten the time of the truce - Ming will not fight and will immediately agree to withdraw from the war with the tributary. Thus it becomes possible to declare a new full-fledged war in five years, and you can even manage to go through several wars with it before it collapses on its own.
Great video! If may do a suggestation, it could be easier to follow what you are doing (and more relaxing for the eyes) to zoom more on what you are pointing!
Really good Video! I tried this in 1.36 and everything went different xD Ming didnt Claim any Mandat. Kicked me off the Tribut system and attacked me after i conquered the north east und and attacked the oirates. i will try again and again, its a funny country!
I know this is a few months late but the triptikata fort is basically a second capital fort is how I’ve seen it act, as for the AI getting it on the capital an enemy has to enter Korea and (I think) be a province or two away from it, which gives you a decision to move it to your capital which makes it a +2 fort without a castle and +4 fort with one
@@StrategySphereyou’re very welcome! I should run some tests on it but I find the Korean gameplay loop to be slow and not as enticing as Europe or hordes
One way to get to war with the Daimyos without involving the Shogun is to enforce peace, to do that, just improve relations up to 100 with the person whose side you are joining on by enforcing it on the other side of the conflict, I was able to do this in Japan in my Korea game, and Ashikaga got so close to forming Japan, then right before he could annex Uesugi, who held the Musashi that was all he needed to form Japan, I declared war on him to take it, and since I had 2 mil techs on him, and I had a Korea that basically had all of Manchuria at this point as well, I smashed him, and then took it, and I would have taken more but truce with Ming was almost up, so I just took the province and some money and peaced out, just to get to war with Ming, it was an easy war as Ming had low mandate, but yeah, you can prevent Japan from forming, also it can get you Shinto provinces to harmonize with sooner, so you get the infantry combat bonus sooner as well. Anyway, great content, keep up the great work, I have seen all your videos (except your first 3 videos), and they have been great, found you with the triple the rome achievement and have never subscribed and set the bell to notify me of all new videos faster, keep up the awesome work.
Korea in dominations is like playing Korea in modern world, like their provinces are so highly developed and makes it so easy to conquer Manchuria and Japan then eventually Ming.
Really like your videos. But do you always just throw all provinces into trade companies? Not using the Goods produced buff for the territories with a single province in the trade company ?
Hi! Yes, I just drop them all into a trade company. I find it’s the fastest way to insane cash and maximum merchants. I could be wrong, if course. But I tried the “single province in a trade center” strategy and remained poor.
Hey this video made me want to play Korea and you can get a claim on orochoni becuase just barley you are connected by sea, a nice way to start a bit faster
If I were to suggest some tags for future videos I would say Poland and/or the Easter egg nations which are only playable via console commands. The latter include Jan Mayen and the Synthetics. Both have the Invasion modifier which gives you free Imperialism CB from day 1, +100 forcelimit, and 1million manpower +100k sailors at the start along with other stuff, you can't do diplomacy at all though. As Jan Mayen, you spawn with 3 neighboring colonized provinces but are the wrong religion and wrong culture group for basically everyone. As Synthetics, you get very cheap armies and provinces are automatically annexed/cored after sieging them. The problem is that you start with +50%fire damage received and all provinces you take have 3 dev. You do start with a large tag and all of its dev though.
In my game, ming took the triptika. Like 2 ticks later, beijing falls to me and i retrieve it. The game then gave me the option of taking it to my capital
Question about the level 1 fort you got. Does it actually have zone of control? And does it negate "bad stuff" from rebels like normal forts do? Because the level 1 capital fort does neither.
Hi! I didn’t test this, but I do recall it blocking the retreat of an enemy who made it down south once. I don’t know if it improved the devastation situation though, since I never had devastation there.
@@StrategySphere Thanks for the reply : ) I guess I'll have to ask reddit or do my own experiment. Really good video btw : ) Never quite knew how the whole "getting cores on china as the emperor" thing worked. Now I know : )
@@stygn thanks and please let me know how it goes - I never quite figured how the Tripitaka forts work. I see Korea bringing it to their capital, which I wasn’t able to do.
Can you do a france wc? I feel it has quite a lot of potential given its mission and France being not an end tag. I thinking france to Jerusalem - latin emptire and russia. Also maybe a guide for finland achievement. I m grtting crushed here
Hi! These are great ideas, I will go for a French WC next (or at least the setup). I’ll just note that France is an end-game tag now, as of 1.35. For Finland - do you mean the Finish line achievement?
By the way, part 1 of the French world conquest, on your request, is here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-o4zRkxLt3-I.html Part 2 will be out soon…
Nice video! At the end you say you would change capital to africa and then the new world for a WC, but didnt say why. Can you please explain this? Thank you again.
Hi! Moving the capital to Africa is just a step to moving it to the New World, to complete the true One Tag WC. It’s not a must, just for fun. Because I started in Asia, Africa is a good first step because I can isolate my capital there.
