The Imperial Council - /r/eu4 Weekly General Help Thread: October 18 2021 Posted: 18 Oct 2021 06:00 AM PDT Please check our previous Imperial Council thread for any questions left unanswered   Welcome to the Imperial Council of r/eu4, where your trusted and most knowledgeable advisors stand ready to help you in matters of state and conquest. This thread is for any small questions that don't warrant their own post, or continued discussions for your next moves in your Ironman game. If you'd like to channel the wisdom and knowledge of the master tacticians of this subreddit, and more importantly not ruin your Ironman save, then you've found the right place! Important: If you are asking about a specific situation in your game, please post screenshots of any relevant map modes (diplomatic, political, trade, etc) or interface tabs (economy, military, ideas, etc). Please also explain the situation as best you can. Alliances, army strength, ideas, tech etc. are all factors your advisors will need to know to give you the best possible answer.   Tactician's Library: Below is a list of resources that are helpful to players of all skill levels, meant to assist both those asking questions as well as those answering questions. This list is updated as mechanics change, including new strategies as they arise and retiring old strategies that have been left in the dust. You can help me maintain the list by sending me new guides and notifying me when old guides are no longer relevant!

You can message me or mention my username in a comment by typing /u/Kloiper Calling all imperial councillors! Many of our linked guides pre-Dharma (1.26) are missing strategy regarding mission trees. Any help in putting together updated guides is greatly appreciated! Further, if you're answering a question in this thread, chances are you've used the EU4 wiki and know how valuable a resource it can be. When you answer a question, consider checking whether the wiki has that information where you would expect to find it, and adding to the wiki if it does not. In fact, anybody can help contribute to the wiki - a good starting point is the work needed page. Before editing the wiki, please read the style guidelines for posting. submitted by /u/Kloiper [link] [comments]

Shouldn’t you be at War? Posted: 18 Oct 2021 07:47 AM PDT Is it just me or does anyone else feel the pressure to be constantly at war in the mid to late game. If I find myself at peace for a year I feel like I'm not being as efficient as possible. submitted by /u/Time_Slayer_1 [link] [comments]

The only reason is because i have low legitimacy then i waited till 1635 to have my legitimacy up to 92 and then i had some wars after that i saw my legitimacy drop to 62 after that i gave up. But that was just my first gameplay as i only played for like 26 hours. Now i'm asking for some advice on how to play the ottomans and some tips too.

Is Cossacks worth buying? Posted: 18 Oct 2021 01:12 AM PDT I bought it a few months ago but refunded immediately due to the favor system. As far as I know you have to wait a fuck ton of years to do anything with your allies and basically makes allying with someone useless but also I want to convert cultures more accurately. Should buy it or leave it? submitted by /u/DaktiloTuna [link] [comments]
