    Selling Land to Estates and Spoils of War/War Reps

    Posted: 22 Jul 2020 09:28 AM PDT

    Fun note for anyone playing smaller nations, when you sell land to estates its tied to your monthly income.

    So in my case playing Albania I beat the Ottomans and took war reps, the game loves to bug out when taking gold/war reps and makes your income 70 ducats a month or 100 ducats a month. Took the sell land right after and got ~1650 ducats as a 4 province Albania in 1470. As opposed to the ~120 or so I would get otherwise.

    Not a particularly game breaking thing in most cases but neat for smaller nations.

    Edit - Further investigation it works with war reps only, seems like because I took money from the Ottomans they had to take a bunch of loans, increasing their income so their war reps were ~70 for 1 month?

    Image below to show what I mean, war reps were 70, sell land decision was ~1500+ ducats.

    More tips to improve your skills!

    Posted: 22 Jul 2020 01:27 PM PDT

    Inspired by this earlier post: https://redd.it/7e3vf6

    disclaimer - I might be wrong about some things, if so correct me.

    I was testing out the new patch playing France and Muscovy (very hard), testing out possible strategies, here are my tips that I recently learned and haven't seen mentioned anywhere earlier:

    1) If you have a vassal swarm like France or Muscovy then your vassals start out with way more manpower then they can field. How to use it? You can let them do their own thing and watch them die here and there or you can send 4 units of your cav and designate all vassals to support it, then use it to pick of enemy stacks. For maximum effect go after stacks with 4 less men than your own - your cav will always deploy on the flanks doing all the flanking and killing without taking damage, while vassal infantry will do all the dying - they have the men while you dont. Just make sure you all arrive to battle on the same day by removing your general and assigning him the day before the battle starts. bonus if one of the vassals has a 3 star general. As an example, the 5 vassals of muscovy have 50k manpower between them. Your starting rivals Poland + Lithuania have only 20k. You can just grind them down to no manpower starting december 12 without loosing a man if you play right.

    2) As a followup to point above, if you hit mil tech 4 while everyone else has tech 3, you boost your vassals with the setup above to pseudo tech 4 by providing higher military tactics during battle, very useful.

    3) On using maneuver generals: Taking too much attrition? Assign a general with high maneuver. Still over supply limit? split your army in two and assign a high maneuver general to each half, their bouses will stack. Not sure if this is intended, an oversight or I'm wrong. Add 3, 4 or how many generals you want, super valuable early on when manpower is tight.

    4) Not a new tip but a reminder: before declaring war, check the neighbours of your target with provinces of intrest mode. Chances are someone wants their land and you can easily ally them, even on very hard, and call them into war with promise of land to split the burden. As war leader it is up to you to honour your promise or throw your new alles off a cliff. This is most widely known as calling Albania into war as Byzantium, but works in most cases. As an example, the Teutonic order will happily ally Muscovy starting December 1449 to fight Poland. They are extra valuable because they have a total of 5 forts that the AI likes to overstack with 30k siege armies taking massive attrition.

    5) If you dont like getting estate agendas that ask you to take land you cant reasonably take or dont want to take, especially early on when your are still building up, then these kinds of missions dont trigger when you are at war.

    6) TIL - you can tune your music player in game and uncheck certain traks that you dont like, if someone didnt know this already.

    What are some of the lesser known or completely new tips that you know?
