It would work in theory, but the last couple of wars against france were just them besieging half of my provinces, while I try to whittle down the doomstacks. Instead of helping me out Prussia goes and kills french ally Lithuania. The warscore he gets is barely enough to get me a whitepeace before I am overrun by french manpower.

With this amazing 0 0 0 regency I can't do jack shit for 13 years anyway and will get so behind in tech/ideas :/

Ugh. France, Tunis and Aquileia are allied with each other, and Milan is allied with Russia, which means I can't go west anytime soon. I'm probably going to colonize all that gray area all the way to Algeria, and then blitzkrieg Tunis so France doesn't have enough time to beat the shit out of me. Either that or just keep going south until I see penguins.

You should be able to destroy them, though. You are gigantic. Crush Tunis with 2 of your armies, send the rest north. Maybe you can destroy aquileia before france does anything, but don't get caught and wiped. Once you are done with Tunis, you have 150k man against france + whatever is left of aquileia. You could even spend some of your absurd amounts of money to hire at least one other army, maybe two (Are you at the force limit yet? If not, you should be. And if yes, you can afford to be a bit above it, but you might want to build some level 5+6 mil buildings). If you are scared of running out of manpower, hire an army of mercs.

You might want to build a few more ships to make certain you have naval superiority in the mediteranean, though. It would really suck if you can't carry your troops around.

How did you PU the Commonwealth I've been under the impression they were immune to becoming junior partners because of the elective monarchy nonsense. I've never seen the AI change that form of government as far as I'm aware.

Just finished my first EU4 game.



Silesia, Aq Qoyunlu, and Wurzburg are my vassals. Can't see much of it in the pic but most of Norway is controlled by Brazil.

I've got a question about my Scotland game.

Currently fighting round 2 of the Battle of Britain. Since the AI cannot into naval warfare and invasions, the war cannot be lost.

However I reallied the French after they pussied out of the first war, the coalition collectively beat the French up, which created -34% warscore. Warscore does not gradually move back to 0% when nothing is occupied, since it's a "Show superiority" war.

Will Denmark ever get a Call for Peace modifier, or do I have to take the initiative?

This is a really stupid situation. I'm just chilling on my islands, colonising a bit, while they are supposedly "winning" a war versus me.


Just took the Norwegian islands and sunk like 50 ships total, with a lot of men on board. Still quite a few dropships managed to land in Iceland, those men will stay there for the rest of the war in a cold vacation. Naval battles or sunken dropships full with troops don't count for the superiority wargoal.

You could try invading Norway while blocking the land route via denmark. Depending on who is against you most of them are probably not gonna be able to do something about that. Or just ignore the whole situation and do other stuff until they want a white peace. The "length of war" effect on whether or not they want a peace should keep on ticking.

Some patches ago after 5 years of stalemate You would get whitepeace proposition regardless of warscore. Dunno if its still there after all recent changes.

I haven't had the issue myself but i have seen AI's in a "war deadlock" for over 50 years. It seems only to happen when an AI can't reach an Island due to the opponentblocking acces with a fleet.
