I believe selecting Zoroastrian will also begin an event chain which converts your country Warning: It will cause a LOT of fairly large rebellion stacks so make sure your army and manpower are prepared.

I did a "this is Persia" achievement run in 135. Is it still possible to get comically high discipline as Zoroastrian Persia in the current setup?

Yeah, although if you form Eranshahr (zoro Persian tag) you can get a different idea set with less discipline, so maybe compare them beforehand and decide if you want to ditch Persian ideas or not. By the time you get rolling, even with the Eranshahr ideas your army still deletes enemy stacks, it's very satisfying.

This is a very weird question but does anyone recall which nation it is that has the event which gives them something like warrior monks? I am sure it was an african nation, and I'm sure the event revolves around 'there used to be a warrior kingdom, let's bring it back' and there are some pretty strong army buffs. Part of me feels that the event flips you christian? Don't really recall.

Zoroastrianism is kinda funny to me, because I know so little about its history, or rituals, or beliefs in general, playing as them in eu4 kinda feels like playing an Anbennar nation. Anyway it’s fun

Hi thread, I am contemplating updating EU 4 for another run and need recommendations. This is currently my DLC situation. If you had to pick just one, which one would you recommend for a player who typically likes to play a European colonizer? If there is nothing I don't own that is really good for that, I can be sold on a particularly cool East Asian (China or Japan) pack. TIA

My own persia attempt is going... slowly. Started as Adarbil, growing to a respectable size, though now my one valid rival is the ottoman empire, who has 4 times my force limit and better army quality, and they're right at my doorstep, and I can't get any of their rivals to ally me (disgusting europeans). I'm sad

I'm sad Starting as Ardabil makes it a lot harder - by the time you're able to ramp up, the Ottomans or Mamluks are snowballing.

Trying to get the Spaghetti western" achievement, and half way through i realized I have no idea how to even turn myself into Texas or Mexico, I doubt I can just 'release vassal-> play as' with a colonial faction, right? So do i have to sell all my Italian land, or culture shift, or how exactly do I go from here?

I think you can release colonial nations as free and click a play as button, but it's been ages so I'm not certain.

Wiki says you can just release as a colonial nation, *or* move capital before a CN forms.

On the subject screen there is a special button for releasing and playing as your colonial nation. No clue if the achievement allows for that, or requires you to migrate your capital.

What I see people do on youtube is move their capital to South Georgia (in the South Atlantic) before having a colonial nation form (by owning 5 counties in a given region, so before the 5th), and then from there you can move it to the mainland.

From one of the three islands that belong to South America but are not in a colonial region (South Georgia, Falklands, Galapagos) and then to somewhere in colonial North America. Or conversely, from Greenland or Bermuda to colonial South America. Or from one isolated colony in Africa, Asia or Oceania, to anywhere (except you can't go from an Oceania island to Australia). The actual requirement for moving your capital to a colonial region if it's not already in one, is that it must be the only province in a state on its continent. Trivially true if you're an OPM, otherwise you have to jump through some hoops. There are no such restrictions on moving to another continent that is NOT part of a colonial region, hence the option of going from a Europe start to a single African or Asian colony, or a Pacific island -- as long as your temporary capital is the only province you own in its state, and you don't make any other states on that continent. People most often use one of the Atlantic islands, or a singular colony on the African coast, since those are least out of the way. (Similarly an Asian or African tag could move its capital via some isolated godforsaken European province.)

I remember doing Spaghetti Western by handing off all but one of my European provinces to a vassal and then hopping over, though that does weaken the income and force limit quite a lot before you have enough land to actually form Texas. On the other hand the native nations won't attack you as long as you're allied to Austria or whoever so you can still colonize freely.

Looks like there's some stuff in your colour there that's not inside your colonial nation... the moment you moved to Greenland, new provinces acquired in North America would no longer automatically be assigned to a colonial subject (and you could no longer create new CNs there either).

It's just Eiriksfjord, Sotuta, where I want to go and that CN in South America, but Sotuta is not a CN province. It is still directly controlled by me

Sotuta is in North America so you cannot move there. You can't move to South America either unless you unstate Sotuta first.

Basically: get a single province in South America, in a different region from your CN there. Unstate Sotuta, now you can move to your new province. Now you can own everything in the New World directly, and move your capital anywhere. Get some Texas clay, move capital once more, get enough more clay, finish achievement.
