To be honest, I am not sure how you really "Screw up" the Ottomans short of declaring on literally everyone or trying to do a world conquer or something. I remember one time where I was chain declaring on people to juggle Truces. Messed up and then half of Europe popped into a Coalition against me and... I just crushed them with very little effort. I think I took maybe 1 loan? Though it has been a few years since that happened.

Something I love about the ottomans is that they're historically even more OP in 1444 than the game mechanics allow for. I wish there was a full annexation mamluks events somehow, and then the mamluks popping out as a disloyal vassal a century later. The ottomans need a stronger early game and a cripplingly weaker late game

Glad you went into more details for new players. I wish I had something similar when I first started out, looking at you - PDX's AMAZING & TOTALLY helpful tutorials. Edit: Small tips: - with a selected army, hover over the province to check the supply limit and find whether your army would take attrition in it. - try to keep cavalry out of sieges as they cost a lot more to reinforce than infantry. - you do NOT need to core Constantinople to take the decision to make it your capital, take the decision right after the war with Byz and save that previous Admin mana! - make sure you have all your loans paid off and have positive income, otherwise your allies won't Knowledge Share with you.

Advice to beginners: these guides are useful, but you need to react to RNG - some events can delay you or impediments some objectives, but that's ok :)

I just bought the game, and have ZERO ideas how to play it. I finished all the tutorials, which is all fine and well, but they explain so little! Right now, I started as the Ottomans, picked some stuff with the Estates that looked good to me (no idea what I"m doing there), and picked some Advisors. Do I just start building armies to attack people? Looking at your video, I noticed something. Browsing through your Estates, you have Dhimmi. I don't. I only have 3 Estates. Is that from a DLC? I have 3 DLC packs: Common Sense, Art of War and Rights of Man. There's other stuff you chose that I can't find in my game, like Janissaries. Something like "setting up your empire" or "what to do first" tips would be very helpful.

As Ottomans, expanding or at least maintain Crimea as frontier is good because it would guarantee your domination on the black sea.

As I was preparing for war against Serbia, they got annexed by Albania which is guaranteed by Venice. It has an unsignificant ally in addition. I declared war on Albania with my allies Florence and Bohemia and occupied all of the land of Albania. But Venice has a huge navy which beats me up in the seas. They also do annoying occupations here and there but on land I can easily defeat them. Anyhow, my war score is stuck at %13 although I have occupied every single province of Albania. I can't reach Venice provinces by land. What should I do? Build a huge navy and then occupy venice provinces? Why is the war score so low although I have occupied my main enemy?

insulting rival has changed in recent patch. In the older patch, u can get 5 pp for normal insult to one rival, and another 10 pp for scornful insult, they r stack (+15 pp). But in current patch, u cannot stack those two, u can get only 10 pp max from insults, which mean, u should only scornful insult one rival. Dnt normal insult and scornful insult at the same time, insult has cool down. I think red hawk mistaken current patch with the old one, I know old habit die hard x). Anyway, great guide.
