This series is really great it’s quite hard to find someone explaining eu 4 who isn’t boring. You just play and explain things while it is happening this helps me personally a lot. Just now I’m playing Russia (started as moscovy) and with your help I have a PU over Bohemia and France and I sort of rule Europa now😁. Thanks Zlewikk for your help!
I hate to play without humanist as well, so useful. So powerful. So nerfed :( Next episode is imperialism time. Get the pop corn boys, we're going to see the world collapse even more!
As a Brandenburg i had 2600% for peasants or particuralists ;)) I think the game just merged some other rebel groups because their reason to rebel disappered
Do you plan on creating vassal countries to get your governing capacity under control, or are you just going to go full-dev on what you do own? Loving this playthrough btw
Nice, I wait and hope you explain which provinces should be added to TC, which staying territories, and which should be stated. And which investment should be build to min max Profit.
If your ultimate goal is max income, then after you unlock the townhalls you have to trade company everything and build a townhall in every single province(1% governing cost). If there is still room over build a manufactory for the +1 good produced. (this is tedious but you have to check every province for buildings to be optimal). For tradecharter region investment get the +50% trade steering, this will stack amazingly along long routes. However, if you wish to see a quick return on your investments, and you don't have infinite money yet, there are 2 routes: You control the trade node, or will in 10-ish years: Trade company the centers of trade, this will net you a merchant and cost almost no governing capacity, from this point you can steer it toward your main trade-node. Any spare money should be spend on townhalls and courthouses to make governing cost trivial. (If you are really struggling with governing capacity build the governing capacity building in your states, not trade company, since after townhalls are unlocked they'll become useless). If you still have money left then the above situation applies. You won't control the trade node for a while(due to AE or there is a PU overthere): You can trade company everything and with the +4 tradepower investment get the merchant from the charter. This +4 tradepower investment is insane for boosting your tradepower in a node, since it will be multiplied by +100% for being in a tradecompany, and by your merchantalism (main factors) meaning that if you have a 5 province state, you'll atleast get 40 tradepower from that state, which is as better than a world port(non trade-company). Hope this helps
@Merlijn Stoffels i am curious did it will be possible to add to trade company every province when will be chance to build +10 incom from trade and every else just added to the state
@@merlijnsiffels3292 so, suppose I have capital in Persia region. So there I made states everywhere. In others subregions, I should made TC in province with trade boost to get merchant only (even if there are huge dev to tax or mp) and states in others, or TC everywhere. For example if I conquer London should I made it state or TC? Should I made TC in all province in area with trade boost province or others province should be left territories? Investment to trade steering should be build in every TC, or those far away from place of collecting, and in others I should build investment to autonomy or trade power to easily gain merchant? Of course I ask about general choices, because some times decisions depends on situation.
@@merlijnsiffels3292 I tested once that if I assign province to state I gain more money than in TC (even with investment), but I not check direct gain for trade (I don't know how to check it)
@@shkodra1505 If you war for it then its just a matter of improve relations and hope your ruler lives long enough. Money helps too, and you could try devving their provinces or causing religious zealots in their land and killing them. Never tried the zealots thing, just thought of it, so not 100% if it works
Until absolutism just increase autonomy. After that use rebel supressiond and just fight them. Also dtack different bonuses to unrest and tolerance. With Humanist ideas it would be even easier.
I don't Understand why Yoy form French nation from Aragon and why you choce English culture to be the most important in your country whats this thinks changes in your campagin?
At the end I'll take french mission for trade eff and than form GB for their 4 missions for trade. In the meantime I have nice french missions and their perk in age of absolutism
It would go live on the same hour without a premiere. Why? Hour is adjusted so it can reach as many people as possible (yes, it's important) + people get a heads up about video earlier + It premieres the minute I end my work meeting so I'll be able to participate in live premiere and answer all questions 'live'
@@ZlewikkTV around minute 24:00 you do a few things on them but not enough to justify this is a video about trade companies, I also noticed you make trade companies on provinces with trade centers as you also mention it too. but do you make all the provinces into trade companies in the end? like having 100%appreciated I enjoyed your fighting and the trick you got more absolutism with a disaster, clever.
@@chrisperatikos7001 So this needs some explanation: The video is part of 11-episodes series where the goal is to reach 1 million income:ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-a3jIqA2AYyo.html. Each video is a standard edited gameplay, but what I was trying to achieve in the series as well was to touch different mechanics of the game and explain them while playing. In this case it was trade companies. I was giving only trade centers so this way I minimized gov cap cost while maximizing profits (merchants and trade value management) In the end I gave all lands to the trade companies as gov cap wasnt an issue. If you dont want to watch whole series, I recommend checking this partcular video where I got whole series in one episode: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-jFPlTnI4POM.html I hope that it's helpful :D
