My goals would be hold some of Spain to keep the Andalusian title while taking North Africa to integrate it. Then I'd slowly leave Spain.

non-accepted pops, I had immigrants from Europe land at New Orleans just to get sold into slavery, same with the retro-spics.

Just build a good country and they will come willingly, but you will have so much you will need tight border control

>>128620650
I don't want them to come, I want the ones I have to be enslaved fug

As France, how do I prevent Prussia from forming the NGF?

>>128620931
stop them from uniting all north german provinces in a federation

Release Alsace.

>>128621000
I know, but if I take an state from them, will it be enough?

>>128621041
I don't use meme mods

>>128621067
keep one north german culture OPM in your sphere = no NGF

works exactly the same way with the SGF, which is why it's so much harder to form the NGF than the SGF, because the NGF route means you need to take alscae-lorraine from france

>>128620485
It just takes time.

>>128621425
if a non-accepted culture won't assimilate, will they get enslaved?

how the fuck does enslavement work at all in vicky2 i'd love to be able to game it

>>128621971
No, they won't

>>128623042
HOW DOES IT WORK

>>128623424
people don't get enslaved

>>128624127
that makes my CSA game worthless though

>>128624864
Complete the true destiny of the south, liberate man from slavery and then liberate mankind from authoritarian rule.

Sounds legit to me. His reforms were more of a way to weed out the decadence than to broaden the religion,no?

>>128640246
One of his chief complaints was the pope literally selling salvation, so yeah, decadence within the papacy was the big thing.

Luther was renowned within his order, which was already one of the most fanatic, as being a bit too fanatical.

>>128640161
Agree, he was against the churches ubmoral way but supported labdlords and vassals, not peasants

They are the same as State Capitalism 2bh

>>128653386

>shift+click every 2 years is hard

>>128653559
this assumes you have max number of factories in every state

if you dont then youre just wasting your time building shit manually

anything over 10 states and theres no fucking way im doing planned economy

>>128653523
>>128653524
To build railroads you only need to ctrl+click once per state
And you only build factories in the beginning of the game, after you conquer a state or after you get a new type of factory. In all these cases it's easy 2bh

>>128653723
its easy but still a huge waste of time

Japan is literally the worst ally in EU4.

They called me into a war against Korea, with Ming as an ally. Thinking because I had a military tech advantage as Manchu, id be able to stack wipe ming a few times pretty easily.

While Japan just sits on its island. Has enough cogs, and a navy, just wont get off the island.

So its pretty much a 2v1 shit show as ming and korea double team me, and force me to peace out, leaving me crippled, with so many provinces taken away from me im surprised Korea would pay that much diplo points for Ming.

Strangely enough, the AI seem to be holding back from colonizing some places. I'm under the impression it doesn't want to spend more money colonizing, which would be interesting since it doesn't stop colonizing when it is low on colonial power, it only releases puppets.

Meanwhile, S-P and Italy are GPs. It's a very different game from the last game where Russia was the #1 GP and the UK was in the third place behind it and the USA.
