Let me guess.
Start in Eu4 as Oda.
Rush to Europe, convert to Christianity.
Royal marriage Burgundy, no cb byzantium.
Form japan, convert save to Victoria.

The last time I was this early, Japan wasn't industrialized because they couldn't watch Ludis videos.

As a fan of history and political economy this game is simply the best simulation i have ever seen and is bound to improve continually over time, i love it

[zemasterbenb]

You seriously think i will watch a 2 hours video of Ludi like that do you ? Absolutely you're right 😀

One small note I noticed in my run at 10:10, when I first looked at Professional Army at game start, it only had about 15% support, the Shogunate didn't support it because their leader was a Traditionalist. When I started a new game as Japan, the interest group leader was rolled as a Jingoist, which gave Professional Army the support from Shogunate to the roughly 70% Ludi had

This game is too confusing for me but i still like to watch Ludi play it

I saw a tip on another channel that was really helpful. When starting as Japan, you say you should do atmospheric engine after researching lathe. However, you could research atmospheric engine to about 10k research points, but not finish it as u need 11500. Then you can switch to lathe and as soon as you finish lathe the penalty for atmospheric engine is removed. This is useful because this way you ensure that your technology spread is used on lathe and not on some tier 2 tech that doesnt have high priority, because the lower tier techs always get spread first.

On the torpedo boats- they were earlier tech than destroyers. The old name for destroyers was "torpedo boat destroyers." The torpedo boats were designed as a cheap, easy to produce, fast-moving way to counter battleships/cruisers/dreadnaughts, allowing smaller nations to hit way above their weight class without breaking their banks. Torpedo boat destroyers were produced as a response, being slightly larger than the torpedo boats and armed with lighter weapons able to destroy torpedo boats, but not able to do much to heavily armored ships. People started just referring to them as "destroyers" because it's a lot easier to say than "torpedo boat destroyers." Eventually torpedo tubes began to be installed on torpedo boat destroyers so they could help with both screening and fighting against capital ships, shifting their role to both that of the torpedo boat and the torpedo boat destroyers. I guess submarines have taken the direct role of torpedo boats- hard to hit smaller craft able to hit way above their tonnage, but they are definitely not a cheap option these days.

14:50 Well, I'm watching you out of the corner of my eye while I work. Really enjoying your content—keep up the great work man, appreciated!

One thing that you *can* do is try and vertically integrate in the early game until you run out of infrastructure in each state, starting from lower pop states. Getting each state up to taxation capacity and avoiding the horrible market access debuffs from traditionalism using a state like say chugoku with less population allows you to get your early economy going with the pops there taxed. Even if a building is more "profitable" elsewhere, the lack of taxation capacity means that 20-50% in taxation is being effectively deleted anyways instead of being used to fund more construction.

still learning how to play vic 3 and this helps a lot.

[tynks_cool]

Holy schnappeldooppens this is a long one

[michaelmartland]

Have 190 hours to my name on this game and still figuring things out - the video and how you present it is platinum and helped me so much understand the mechanics much more that previously. Thank you!

[ivokas]

I watched that once at live... And second one now. Good job Ludi. I think that video really explain a lot for semi-new players

[duddy]

Love the Vic 3 content. Been watching for years on EU4 and just picked up Vic 3... I need help so much needed content.

[huffingpuff]

Been trying this out on my own but this video will save me a lot of time in re-do’s, thanks Ludi

[christianpoulsen]

I liked cause im 'that guy' who watches your videos in the background xD
For some reason every video I watch, I also want to play the country you are playing in the video afterwards.

As for learning something new, I never realised the reason I struggled with Japan was because I spammed Government admin, instead of changing the laws, I could never manage to come out of negative tax. So I learned something new even with having played this game for near 500 hours.

[pietrobottan]

Thanks for the video! I would really like more tutorials!

[its_classy]

I think it would be important to have noted that people wouldn't experience the same experience with policies due to the rng of leaders, its such a big (and annoying) thing of Victoria 3 that people need made aware of because they're going to wonder why you got 70% support for something while when they do it is 15%

[mixeray]

Amazing vid, Ludi. Thanks for explaining everything in detail!
