You might not be strong enough for the reformation, if you think that’s alright, go for it.ĭon’t forget to train your army ! You can destroy the Verdun fort but I don’t recommand it for money reason. If you have any occasion of becoming the emperor, do it only if you know what you are doing. The main idea is to get an access to the sea as soon as we possible The one with the less ally is better to invade of course. The second diplomat should go for claims over Tier (“Trêves” in French I don’t know in English, it’s the orange guy next to you in the north) or the Palatinate. If you got Leviathan ( earn favors from your most powerful ally (Austria in my case) it’s the best thing you can do as is can solve many problems (money, manpower, ally in an offensive war) Now you should save your game use as wisely as possible your diplomats, you only got 2 of them if you lose at this point it’s certainly because of an unwise use of them. Invading France is however needed ASAP to avoid having such anenemy just next to you (and also it’s not in the HRE) It seems that it won’t be so easy, you either go again for France -_- or you can expend into the HRE -_. I won this war in 1.31 with Austria, Bretonny and the Pope (I attack during the countinuation of the hundred years war, took Paris and the dev/money that come with it) If you’re allied with Burgundy she will keep those provinces for herself.ĭo not hesitate to take the +5% morale from your “focus tree” Just be sure to take the provinces in the Lorraine state as they are what you will take in the peace deal. Since 1.30 France is very very likely to beat easly England so a war with her is almost certain, it’s not necesseraly a bad thing as you will be able to take a bunch of money and developpement if you got Leviathan.Ī war against Provence alone is easy. It might not sounds enough but England will attack France (hopefully) and so you will (or wait for France to don’t join Provence in your war). However it’s less frequent, even if they rival Provence (Genoa from time to time) they won’t always join you as (like Genoa) they can’t access Provence. You can spend some money anyway as you will recover it in peace deals. Hire a +1 diplo rep advisor if necessary you shouldn’t be in red.

I didn’t wait and choosed to fight France. Provence will be allied to France during a long time, you can wait for France to break up the alliance or not answering Provence’s call to arms. Diplomacy is esssential due to your geopolitical situation.

You might restart a few times as sometimes no body will like you (I know pretty realistic game). The first thing that prevent you from worldwide domination is the personal union. could we get discipline instead?)Īnd finally we get +10% on national tax modifier (this is certainly due to the proximity with France)ĪND you’re under a personal union of ProvenceįREEEEDOOOOOOM (yeah like the scots or something) -25% on the cost to fabricate claims (very good).-10% infantry cost and +20% to the caravans as starting doctrines (those are really good).becoming the first power OF THE ENTIRE PLANET WORLDWIDLY take the place of Austria without asking screenshots are in French but it doesn’t interfere with the global understanding of the guideĮverything else is fine ! If you enjoy this guide consider liking, if you have any request or suggestion don’t hesitate to comment it ! – maybe some language mistakes as English isn’t my native language – less jokes as people that don’t come from France wouldn’t understand it and some jokes from the original guide can only be understood by people that actually come from Lorraine (those that are remaining may not be understood either) Please understand that this guide is a TRANSLATION of my French guide. This guide will show you the way to play this small difficult starting country.
