GOTLAND is secretly INSANE in EU4 1.34

Justa curiosity.. which kind of government reforms do you suggest? Is worth to get the piracy republic that give a lot of bonus ro navy but remove the possibility to make other allies?

Lame

What this map mod name.Telling me please ?

:p

Doing my gotland - Alaska campaignt atm, and wanna do some recommendations for minmaxing ur pirate experience.
1) Do maximum amount of trade wars, starting with novgorod before they dissapear. No need to conquer anything in scandinavia at all, u can pass missions by many naval wins vs denmark
2) As soon as u can get the splendor for claims bordering claims - claim some norway islands near scotland coast - and conquer those+iceland
3) as soon as scotland is weakened - conquer the cores of THE ISLES as well, as well as some provinces to release some minors later. Same u can do in ireland as well
4) After u conquer portuguese caraibas- leave them a province to keep colonizing carribeans. U can even send them cash to save from bankruptcy after. Also switch to portuguese culture for future NW conquest.
5) next goal number one is annexing aztecs, and remaining golden provinces ASAP. ITs the biggest boost of cash aside of trade wars(mb biggest coz trade wars take many years to get european great powers to low war enthusiasm)
6) after u reach pacific coast - rush for tribes in alaska, u can get 5 provinces from them for free, move capital there and form Alaska!!! Amazing point is u keep gotland missions
7) Immediately all land in europe will be returned to dead OPMs - TPMs with no truce!!! - so u can easily attack them with war against the world CB, annex and release as happy vassals. Also after 5 years u MUST war against the world vs gotland to get ur monument back and mb get another vassal. I made this by 1596
8) The point of european vassal swarm is feeding them colonial provinces and annexing after. Coz ur capital is in alaska u can attack colonial nations directly one by one. So u can get all their colonial nations including North america(where u cant get any CNs even if u move capital back to bermuda).
9) After u fully annex all colonial nations of england / portugal / spain in north and central america, u can move to south america and split columbia, brazil, Rio Plata and Peru between ur vassals as well, but take at least 10 provinces for urself. Move ur capital back to bahamas, core 5 in each colonial region, and now u have extra 4 colonial nations and merchants for urself
10) diplo annex ur vassals, and enjoy 30-50 colonial nations under ur rule with zero liberty desire, almost all trade flowing to carribean, unlimited merchants, unlimited gold from ur colonial nations in peru and mexico, unlimited manpower, forcelimit, naval limit etc.
PS: omg, i thought it would be a couple of lines to describe my playthrough)))
Point number 9 is invalid, coz u cant form any CNs after forming alaska. But still u can get several CNs in every colonial region from ur european vassals

How do you get the cool text?

Best idea groups to start with? :D

The editing just keeps getting better and better. Loved that Stanley Parable reference.

Denmark being aggressive so early is actually a bad thing because much of the time Denmark and Muscovy will get super buddy buddy and basically lockout that entire region.

A LOT more nations are being formed / released these days after the update... I love it. and Ottoman doesn't seem AS OP as before

GOTTland

I'm not that surprised they are op I find gotland annoying as a northern country or a Baltic one cause they kept pirating my shores

“The only person who could realistically kill us is Muscovy”
Muscovy listening around the corner: “You were saying?”

fuck gotland... you have to restart like a billion times for sweden to start an independance war and 90% of the time denmark allies the teutons or wolgast or someone else that a million more ships

the privateers way values have pretty much been halved. in my own run i prospered and took all of denmark and half of sweden before being completely annihilated by a super powerful commonwealth.

Part 2 pls

Wait how did you get the Stanley parable voice lol
