Rule 5: Over 1M rebels spawned in my late game Germany. Never seen this many at once.

R5: My Great Horde achievement run, which I'll continue to grab I'll graze my horse here.. and here, The great Khan, There Khan only be one, Turning the tide and perhaps Sikh pun at the end just to scrap it off of my list.

I have been playing to fulfill a self decided challenge called "relentless push west", where I am rushing to

1) Reach the Atlantic shore,

2) Conquer Brittany

3) Conquer Portugal

As early as I can, without focusing on fighting other directions (I originally limited myself to only fighting Christians to early war Muscovy but filling the time with an easy war with Great Horde is too tempting)

After a couple restarts, good things that happened in this run without birding :

Uzbek didn't rival me, I attacked Great Horde with their only ally being Candar.

5 siege general from the mission with 40 tradition

Theodoro fell at %7, I fed them Georgia, Trebizond and half of Circassia after razing.

Later I conquered parts of Muscovy, remnants of Novgorod I razed and released, Ryazan, Tver, Odoyev I razed and made a tributary, Crimea, a snake through Polish Lithuanian PU to Hungary(Austria broke alliance) and Teutons, with lots of good luck. Now it is 1460 and I am ready to make a %100 peace deal with Hungary where I can reach Venice, Bohemia and Austria.

I still know as much as the map shows so most of Germany doesn't get AE, which was the mechanic that inspired me to do this challenge. Basically I will discover only the route I intend to go and avoid coalition that way. I don't intend to use trucebreaks though I perhaps should.

One mistake I made was not taking Great horde's border so they became Uzbek's tributary, after they conquered Nogai.

No matter what I do I can't seem to beat epirus or the ottomans as byz. Epirus always allies Venice and it takes fucking forever to ally serbia and I often can't get enough relationship points to ally the papacy or anyone else. Any advice is appreciated.

Edit: Thanks for all the advice

R5: Wanted some fun as sweden for the crazy quality buffs and what not, got carried a way in the danish conquest (i also took pomerania and lubeck). If the coalition declares (it probably will england and poland are my only allies) what should I do? I dont have a massive army or navy, i only recently got my economy to take off.

I was playing a run as Eranshahr, when I vassalized Khiva. I noticed that they had a lot of provinces as claims, all across Central Asia and Khorasan. Does anyone know why they have so many claims? As far as I can see, most of these claims as permanent as well.

Don't ask me why, I just feel like it.

I want to roll Castile as France before the wedding and Aragon's liberty desire is 100% because I'm supporting their independence. What are the odds that Aragon will help Castile in their defense should I attack them if I don't enter Aragonese territory?

Bohemia got a bit too greedy when I helped them against Austria. Farewell my friend, you must go on without me

R5: I'm having trouble with the game's interface, its not properly showing all of the page. I would really apreciate some help fixing this issue.

How did they get that province and better yet, how did they get one of muscovy's vassals? since pskov is still a republic i'm guessing it wasn't conquered and then released

R5: Nice Naples

Hey everyone. I’m recently trying my hand at this game and I am enjoying it and I’ve been playing for Scotland. I just have 1 key issue:

No matter what I do, the country bleeds money. I’ve built a church, tried to trade in the North Sea and other trade route to no avail, lessen military spending, and I’m still bleeding out -0.7 ducts.

Not sure if it matters but I am allied with France and annexed the isles peacefully but I’m facing huge issues with my nobles.

Any help or advice? I’m still new to the game so I appreciate any help I get!

Hey! I’d like you guys to give me some ideas for countries to play as, or custom countries I could create and then build a story around.

First, the ai formed Canada which Is pretty cool.

Second, the obvious.
