Answer to your Nassau question: the first settlement in the bahamas was called charlestown but was destroyed by pirates and frenchmen and the dutch came and resettled the land. they called it Nassau since the stattholder of the dutch republic was from the house of oranien-nassau in short : yes the nassau in the bahamas is called after the nassau in germany

Day 2 of asking Red Hawk to bring back the nation formation series

I wrote this on your last video, but just in case. I have watched every one of your A to Z videos thus far. I just caught up with some of your earlier ones. 1. I question the priorities of my life. 2. Amazing job keeping the series going! Seriously, good stuff. 3. The difference between your earliest runs compared to these latest one are night and day! Omg I was yelling at the screen at times, it was painful watching you lose so often (especially when it was because of a certain pesky hotkey...or hotC :P ) 4. You have improved both as a player and as a caster, I feel like you're so much more confident and competent now compared to before. And even when you lose now, you still keep a good attitude and keep it interesting. Thanks for all the videos. Hope you're having a good one!

Hormuz has a unique achievement... _Straight Talk: As Hormuz, have at least 10 diplomatic reputation._ Make that one of your goals.

Holstein should be able to form Denmark like Gotland, since the House of Oldenburg rose from there.

I feel like Holstein is really overlooked due to it being surrounded by more interesting nations, like there's no reason I can see why you would play them normally. Would have been cool for them to get some flavor in the new update

"Let's not take viborg, i don't want more ae than i need" Also red hawk: *fully annexes novgorod*

21:29 I am just imagining the Holy Roman Emperor reading the suggestions brought to him, giving signatures of approval and then: "Yeah that embargo looks good... wait, that's on me? Who wrote this?"

5:53 when playing as tuetons in the new patch, I've noticed they get a bunch of morale buffs from missions or events early on as a counter balance to poland being bigger.

The city of Nassau is indeed called after the von Nassau dynasty, which did rule the area around Wiesbaden in today’s Hesse among other places at some point, but I don’t think the area they ruled over is as large as the game suggests

I don't know if Paradox would ever do this but it'd be nice if you could convert cavalry into infantry, even if it was a fee and it was non reversible. Or if there was a retrain mechanic where you could convert one army unit type into another, but you wouldn't have to lose the manpower.

Finally a new video I can eat now

Light ship combat ability seems good considering you're in Luebeck trade node and should have 99% light ships anyway.

I like how Iceland was named "Holsteinian North Atlantic Island"

Teutonic order can have above 4.0 morale if you choose right things at the start of the game with discipline and cav combat they are very strong.

Am I the only one who cried at the screen asking him to just finish off Sweden to clean that pimple from his border gore?

You almost embargoed yourself there Hawk that is a new one

exiling Norway to newfoundland was really the coup de grace of this campaign, well played Red Hawk

Hormoos - own every cow province in a number of regions

Palatinate wasn't voting for you because they always vote for themselves if another elector does

Nassau in the bahamas is loosely related to that Nassau. It is named after William III. (of Orange-Nassau), king of England, Scotland, Ireland, Stadtholder of the Netherlands, Prince of Orange. He is from the house of Orange-Nassau which is a sideline of House Nassau, which owned the epytomous duchy.

2:54 "these guys didn't get anything in Lions of the north unfortunately, which kinda does make sense since they're a germanic nation. Teutonic order, Lübeck and Riga: 👁👄👁

No venice? Blessed save right there

Absentmindedly, I said "I forgar" the other day IRL and the person to whom I was speaking looked at me as if I were insane. So thanks for that, Hawk.

Technically, you could've gone for that new achievement where you have to form Scandinavia and revoke the privilegia by culture switching to Danish. While it's correct that it doesn't allow you to reform Denmark, it does give you the option to form Scandinavia.

You had transfer subject almost this entire game, why not just transfer Sweden/Norway to yourself?

Campaign, more like camPAIN

me casually doing a holstien into germany playthrough: hm. interesting timing. gud video!

Hormuz got an unique achievement thats all about maxing out diplo rep. Could go for that.

Broke: force limit in the early game Woke: horse limit in the early game

Holstein was the subject of my favorite game of EU4 ever.

I'll probably keep reposting this comment until you do a Germiyan video because i have no idea of you've seen it or not and i hope it helps: For Germiyan in releasables you should do nothing and improve realtions with Mamuluks and hope they will support your independence, they didn't want to in my first run, but in second they did, probably because they were bordering the Ottomans. If you royal marry the ottomans go restart. Once you get Mamuluks to support your independence you should either wait for them to fight someone in the balkans or declare immediately because they will placate your rulers to get you under 50 liberty desire. You may want to make a backup save for war just so you don't have to do a full restart if Mamuluk ai trolls you, also if Ottomans ally Tunis you should probably restart or go all in with mercs to try to hold out until Mamuluks deal with Tunis(although you'll probably go bankrupt this way). Once you win the war you should take Gelibolu, Constantinople, whatever you can in north Anatolia and war reparations and stay as far away from Mamuluks as long possible because you are still not strong enough to fight them and you won't need any allies because you'll still be surrounded by the Ottomans. After that you'll probably fight theodoro, crimea, georgia or circassia depending on their allies and then probably even more weakened Ottomans if Austria got Hungary and declared on them, otherwise you wait until Mamuluks declares on the Ottomans and if the Ottomans declare on you then mercs and debt it is, after that second war you should start looking for allies to prevent Mamuluks and Austria from declaring on you and the rest is up to you. Hope this helps and good luck.

When will you continue the formable nations series?

In honor of the Strait of Hormuz you should conquer every province in a straight line across the globe as Hormuz. Alternatively, go for more moos as Hormuz and dominate the livestock market?

It's HolSTEIN god damn it 😅

Picking my idea = common Red Hawk W

As Hormuz do the achievement and conquer all straights in the old world ( Gibraltar, Malacca, Palk, Sunda, Bab el Mandeb,Bosporus, etc)

Can anybody tell me, what's the difference between the normal Prussia and the Ducal Prussia?

Day 1 of asking which is RH's favourite band

You could've avoided fighting England if you took all but one province from Norway, vassalized them and asked the province back using favours. I don't remember right now but there was another run (I think you failed) where you could've done it but it was the Ottomans instead of England.

Since Hormuz has a diplomatic related achievement, how about a diplomatic-heavy campaign? As Hormuz, become a pacifist great power. That means only colonization and diplomatic vasallisation is allowed. You can't declare wars, and if someone invades you, you cannot take provinces from them (unless they are your cores) o force-vasallise them.

Schleswig-Holstein, Meer umschlungen As someone who lives in the region I really dont know why eu4 players are so fascinated by Dithmarschen and Holstein :D its a pretty shitty places honestly and besides Watt there isnt all that much here

Have you not been expanding infrastructure when you bump your capital up to 30? That 25% discount is well worth 50 ADM

This challenge was basically do what Austria did but it Holstein Also " it makes sense that Holstein doesn't get a mission tree from lions of the north they're germanic" My guy Scandinavia IS Germanic

Hormuz is a Persian province which conquered by Portugal why not reverse that?

As Hormuz, get the achievement and conquer all provinces to form Arabia.

Thanks for the video!

Disappointed. I thought this video was about the cute cookies and cream cows.

As hormuz, you should repeat history and defeat the Portuguese in a war!

Hi bro

Ah yes Denmark, the 1.34 european punching bag

That thumbnail... How many teeth does that guy have?????

Holstein is the secret Denmark (?) GG to the campaign

Next Video: *Appatchi owns Scandinavia* 👍👌

You should have conquer Russia for historical accuracy.

Me, a German, bother you to say Holstein properly.

The Red Hawk’s slogan should be “Pain”

My Home Country! Tanks i realy enjoyed it!

Great video! one of the favourites

3:44 isn’t that bad don’t horses do a lot of shock damage

12:59 it was the reality for like 2 years in polish history

That moment when the Ottomans siege down Paris 😅

19:50 I think the league also doesn't spawn if you back down in a few events where you either piss off protestants or lose like 20 imperial authority.

i wanna see you try to play as a vassal of france 👀

ping pong, zoom zoom, I want to watch eu4 stuff, but this is jarring.

Hey, i can see my house from here

It's late friday and RedHawk is releasing a new CamPAIN video. Bless.

You're pronouncing "Holsten" pretty correctly in Danish actually. :)

I watched the whole ad for you

seeing vyborg hurts my eyes

Nassau in the Bahamas indeed does come from the Dutch. Actually a lot of things in the Americas' come from the dutch. The famous Harlem district of New York City is named after the area of Amersterdam of the same name from when the dutch owned New York. (Then as New Amsterdam). Wall street (where the famous Trading Center is, is literally the street that had a wall on it in the old city

SCHLESWIG HOLSTEIN MEERUMSCHLUNGEN 💙💙💙

About Nassau as far as I know, Nassau in the Bahamas was named ofter the Duke of Nassau, not sure why

what is Ducal Prussia ?

england 1.34 when?

pulling out the AI strats by leaving sweden as an OPM. I like it

woohoo, a sponsor. nice

That OPM Sweden is an eyesore , especially as you own land in Russia

Holstein: Gotland if you do not give us Holstein there will be trouble

6:53 Some shmoney?

Pleease play sapmi

14:44 better than Gagnes

SCHMONEY

Could you have waited until after WE died down a bit to core those first provinces you took from Denmark to keep from spending 300 adm on them? They were like 100 each , seems expensive.

hi

I never knew you could attach to an allied fleet

Damn getting Norway as a vassal to be in a defensive war against England towards the end would have been so good.

campain

i love you hawk

15:10 Technicly you could full annex Denmark to steal her personal union Norway and Sweden But does it count as accomplished scondary goal to destroy Kalmar Union? 🤔

As Hormuz control at least 90% of trade power in the Straits of Hormuz without owning a single province in that trade node.

First

11:07 "i forgor" best sentence xd
