In my (successful) Ideas Guy run Ming collapsed like 1470, but they made it until the very end in some of my other games lately. So currently Ming is somewhat stable imo. Of course they never collapse early when I am playing in the Chinese area... Timmy almost never makes it to the end, but imo they currently last a bit longer than previously. Still very 50-50 though. | ||

Making a Vasal out of Haixi sounds like a good idea, unfortunately Korchin declare on them most of the time once I dispatched the Haixi army, so that would drag me to war with Korchin right of the bat. So that would be another thing I need to get lucky with. Will try if get the chance though. Also raze everything. Noted.

It always comes down to the ottomans, and it seems worth it to make extremely dicey plays early on to take them out (we're talking no-CB vassalize BYZ). They are the one player in Europe you can abuse and no one will care about. Great geography, too -> take out Ottomans, take out Africa, Persia, India, the world. Muscovy is always a nice 2nd choice, but I wouldn't spare a no-CB on them. There's beating up Iberia (who are more isolated from Christendom than most), but that is extremely contingent on having a French alliance and inevitably if you chew up too much of Iberia the French will rival and now you're sitting on a rival with more than -50 AE against you - instant coalition bait. It's not too bad if you have other backup allies but coalitions are costly to deal with. edit: Apparently you there are start diplo configurations where you can call Genoa into war with Byzantium promising land with the first no-CB. Interesting. | ||

It's extremely annoying knowing that Paradox's method of QA is primarily aimed at catching exploits (and not testing whether the features actually work), and thus one ends up with horrifically broken features like transfer occupation, promise land, and support independence. | ||

transfer occupation: *allies will often transfer occupation to your vassals, even when the vassal can't core the land, or will transfer occupation to random people's colonial nations promise land: *there's literally no way to know what land an ally will actually accept in a peace deal so promising land is like ally roulette support independence: *vassals don't mutually break support at <50% LD which means once you have an inter vassal alliance it will always be there *countries you have a truce with can support independence | ||

Will def. read Furor Barbarorum.  Finally was able to beat Ming and take Beijing. Pyramid of Skulls achieved. Took me a metric fuckton of loans and mercs to do so though. Was a Mil. Tech ahead and was crushing their armies on advantageous terrains, but their sheer number of troops and manpower... Kinda pissed that despite losing a bunch of provinces (also took those Manchu cores) in this war, Ming is still super stable atm. Mongolia still holds a province I need to form Qing. Will try to get blood for the sky god first though. | ||

Will try to get blood for the sky god first though. the other hordes are pretty easy to beat tbh. i think you can just expand west till youre able to overpower them or they die to rebels from a random event or something, have to remember they must keep 50 autonomy in their provinces bc of mandate of heaven, so it c ould be a lot worse esp since they start with like 1400 dev lol ![[image loading]](http://images.akamai.steamusercontent.com/ugc/270587945655434232/7F8FFBBF7F8D0B0A29AE3DF78BF241E7E598563B/) have ince killed most of uzbek, taken some of muscovy all of tlemcen mamluks + nadj youre poor doing the wall off, but the sheer amount of provinces isnt bad UPDATE : Whats the best way to crack europe? I think if i can tackle all of Asia, then annex AQ i should be able to pure roll them once Autonomy starts ticking down, but at the present its not looking good ![[image loading]](http://images.akamai.steamusercontent.com/ugc/270587945656405173/75A1C659BCE1F5A75DA9CDA007FE058699163B85/) | ||

Full yolo, you'll probably want 600k+ filled force limit. I did full yolo here (basically in coalition range of the entire HRE + Sweden + all of Italy + PLC) but I had 100k allied troops in Florence + Bohemia, ~350 regiments myself and 100k subject troops. If you yolo you need to have a good sense about splitting your coalitions via truce timers though: ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/rCGUWKW.png) The fact that you're already getting coaltiioned by India is concerning, because cross continent coalitions are gigantic pains to deal with. | ||

Are you going for a one-tag? If that's the case you would want Vienna as early as possible, it would also prevent Austria from automatically growing that big. An easy way is to take 1 Styria core from Austria in a quick war against one of their allies and in a subsequent reconquest war give Vienna to Styria, integrate them and get Vienna with 0 separatism when you reach admin 10. Furthermore, with admin tech 10 you should put everything into coring and only catch up in time for admin efficiency. The points that went into your admin tech 11+12 could have been cores in Europe in the direction of Vienna/Prague. | ||

It's bothersome, but you just need to stay at war until the vassal has finished coring, then they will ignore the unlawful territory demand. | ||
