I know the AI is coded to naturally advance toward player nations but the Ottos taking explo in 1530s is absolutely fucking insane.

I almost made a joke about how you reached Argentina levels of inflation but then I remembered Argentina's inflation rate is actually higher 💀

26:05 having an Explorer or an Admiral is no different for when you're doing a battle, provided they have the same pips. It's the same as Conquistadors (vs. Generals) - the difference how many pips they get when they are originally rolled. For any given amount of Army/Naval Tradition, a Conquistador/Explorer will, on average, have 20% fewer pips than a General/Admiral.

You have conviced me, after 4k hours I will finally do it.

I haven't attempted three mountains before but want to try it soon, this should be helpful :)

The difference between an explorer and an admiral is that the explorer always has a minimum of one pip less than the admiral upon recruiting, the same is true for conquistadors vs generals, which is why they tend to suck more, but hey, they make up for it by being able to explore terra incognita.

How do i know this? Hover over the recruit button and read what it says.

Great Guides! I followed ur Ottoman Eyalet Exploit for my first WC and your Austria Aztec Guide for my first true onetag and onefaith guide. Will you continue this guide or not?

12:48 anyone can link me this decision on EU4 wiki? Are there also similar decisions for other country which allows take someone's mission tree?

Got the achievement with this start (except the European part) and then forming Japan, getting EoC, and changing to Hindu. Not sure how many of those would be helpful, but I feel like they made expansion and wars easier for me.
Couldn't complete some of the Japanese MT (-5% power cost) because some Aztec missions got in the way. Its was a comfy run.

Thanks for the video.

hey wouldn't be better to form Maya (not end tag) to take their mission tree (with the high American unit) (and some other modifiers), keeping the Ryukyu ideas (for the huge AE reduction) in order to keep the Deus vult against Aztec nations in Mexico? Also because like this you get the Mayan reformation with the -25% CCR that is not present in the Aztec one.

24:01 i had no idea this was a thing what the fuck how long has "annex migratory tribe" been a thing

[leifkjnny]

Be aware that the Aztec mission tree is super broken. If you adopt it and then form another tag with its own mission tree, you keep both.

random thing, it's obvious when your audio/video cuts when your video is stationary over a specific area, if you separate and just cut the audio but keep the video playing without cutting then it's less obvious. or if you don't rly care then ignore me hsfdjhsfdj

when the rebels took your capital in alaska without you noticing until your ships blew up. 🤣

[FumeiYuusha]

I'm fairly certain I saw a 6 hour long video of this on the channel, but now it's gone. Is there any way I can find it, or is it gone for good? I would have loved to watch the whole thing. :/

Answering the question about the difference between the admiral and the explorer:
it doesn't matter BUT on average admirals have more pips

[jamiewillis]

I wish there was a part 2. I can only like once though.

doesnt new aztek make the burgundy strat better?

Naval attrition to "kill" your leader earlier. Send a 1000 stack to the open seas with your leader instead of drilling.
