My first battle with the allied fleet patroling the atlantic. Not to bad, even though my entire fleet had to retire to repair in spanish ports.

I've since assigned 1000+ CAS planes to the region. I hadn't realized how effective they are against just about anything seaborne.

The end goal is of course to achieve at least partial naval superiority so I can send troops over to England.

Actually, the reverse is true if we're talking Aryanism. Germanics (or "Teutons") are Nordic, rather than the other way around. The Nordic race is the progenitor of all other superior races, including germanics, normans, romans and the ruling castes in India, Persia and Greece in the antique...

Did you use a custom start? I did something similar back before the tribal update fucked up viking raiders. I had invaded Lanka and southern India as norse vikings and immediately converted to Nestorian via concubine from Socotra. I eventually lost when I tried to go Messalian.
I've never been able to reproduce anything similar in ironman despite my efforts, just curious how you did it.

>>148116214
I'm playing while using the CK2 Plus mod, with a mini-mod of my own design that puts a few of Nestorianism's holy sites in Southern India (corresponding with the location of St. Thomas's arrival in India as well as the site of his tomb). I then used a default start as the ruler of Mahoydapuram, the trade node county in the Indian southeast.

From there, I played normally as a Hindu character, hopping between vassalhood of various rulers before getting stronk enough to form the Kingdom of Tamilikam. Then, as a Hindu raider, I took a daughter of the ruler of Socotra as a concubine and had her do some education to give myself a Christian heir and a couple of male courtiers I could turn into vassals before he took the throne.

From there, I just rolled north, holy warring the subcontinent while keeping a careful eye on when they'd be vulnerable (declaring primarily during large claim wars among the Hindu rulers, or declaring on the occasional Jain ruler who wouldn't get much auto-help). I then formed the Deccan Empire title and tech-rushed Legalism to unlock Kingdom Viceroys.

i want Gibraltar but nationalist spain wont give me fucking access despite being a fellow facist. do I need to invade him to take this place? because so far naval invasions have all failed miserably.

Just started a EU4 game as Ceylon. 1510 right now and fuck all has happened. Vijayanagar are fucking strong, conquered Bahmanis and the southern plebs without triggering a coalition, and Indochina is getting unified through Champa and Siam

My only way to expand is through colonizing those nigger islands on the Indian Ocean. Sad.

I want to play EU4, what country should I play as? I just tried Russia but the entire world got annexed by 600,000 Polish soldiers in 1570 and not even the entire world allying to fight Poland could stop them so that's off the board.

So this random fucking baron has a godlike dynasty member imprisoned, who I want to make my heir, and I have no way of getting him out, even though im his liege's liege.

King Baudouin VI is a just King. He believes that all of God's children (of the true faith, of course) are equal at birth, and their determination, virtues, and piety are what sets them apart from their peers. For years, he has questioned why his eldest son Aubry must inherit the Kingdom of Jerusalem when his daughter Bourgogne, as much as it pains him to play favorites amongst his children, is undeniably the greater of the two. She is brighter, infinitely more diplomatic, and perhaps even stronger than her bookish brother. She even boasts his same beauty, inherited from their mother Gudrun. Why should she be prevented from becoming Queen merely because Aubry is a male? Aubry, Lord forgive him for saying it, is a reclusive, even paranoid administrator; he does not have what it takes to become King. Bourgogne, however, has what it takes to be one of the greatest rulers Jerusalem has ever seen, especially since her son Thiebaut is now betrothed to Gersenda, arguably the equal of Bourgogne in intelligence.

Yet Baudouin is just; he will not merely give the title to Bourgogne, or deny Aubry the opportunity to succeed him. No, Baudouin has an entirely different idea for how to handle the situation: he will make the Kingdom of Jerusalem an elective monarchy, where all Dukes of the realm have the right to vote for who their new ruler will be.
