In the 1.37 inca changelog it has been confirmed that accepting a royal marriage from Burgundy also makes u eligible for the inheritance now. :)

Is this what having a loving father is like

Every time redhawk says ,,below zero" I can only hear ,,beloozero" and get flashbacks from my hideous campaign

2 hour red hawk I have been blessed.

you know ur Early when the video resolution gives 2000s vibes

FYI, you don't need to no CB the protestants. Just declare on their allies and call them in. You can also co-beligerate other countries to draw in a protestant. In the video he No-CB'd nassau, but they were allied to his neighbor loraine. All he had to do was declare on loraine. I've also had to do chains when I don't border their ally. EX you want nassau, they are allied to loraine and loraine is allied to Gelre which you do have a border with. You declare on Gelre, co-beligerate loraine, then loraine calls in nasau. It makes the wars a bit bigger, but by this stage you're just bashing HRE minors. It's much less painful than No CBing a bunch of countries.

Babe wake up, new Red Hawk just dropped. Love your vids man

11:05 in the update that comes alongside the dlc this bug will finally be fixed so this information is outdated.

A.E.I.O.U - Allen Erdenreich ist Österreich Untertan "All earthy kingdoms are Austrias subject"

Good stuff, a quick tip from The Student: support rebels is a great option to gain a CB on a nation you don't border/have a claim on. And yes, you can take provinces in a Support Rebels CB Thanks for the guide!

Take a shot every time Hawk says “obviously”

I think what's really good for any run where you want to Revoke is to not let the Imperial Authority go to waste by using the 'Bestow Imperial Grace' diplo action on nations whom don't support the next reform. This way you won't need that much microing, since you can get these countries like you faster, while also doing something with your excess IA

Been looking forward to seeing how the new tree plays! Thanks for such a long video!

For newer players, I'd also mention that you should definitely divert trade from all your HRE vassals. This will give you total control over all european trade nodes, which will net you more money than you'll know what to do with.

This is awesome bro! Can’t wait for this!

This will be my goodnight video tonight, cant wait!

Congrats on the sponsorship, couldnt believe my eyes when I saw this was a new video!

Dang it! These 1.37 pre-release runs from the KZfaqrs are killing me. I have no idea who I want to play first now. Yesterday, I even considered playing Venice after Ludi's video...Venice, of all things...at least Hawk has saved me by enticing Austria...

Thanks so much man! I just got WC and OF with this guide. I can't believe how good it is and how well it works. It's so nice to nail both of these, even if it took until 1815.

Nice Video! 32:16 apperently this got changed now, and you can pick to inherit Burgundry even if they sent the royal marriage.

Amazing stuff! I can't wait to try this dlc out

It will definitely be my first playthrough of the new dlc, amazing opening!

The video is great and fun to follow, thanks

How ive been waiting for this!

Hope the bug gets fixed, i would be so annoyed if i played it day of and didnt get the right CB. Bless you, Hawk!

I believe, and could be wrong, that paradox fixed the burgundian inheritance event so that even if you accept their RM offer it will still trigger. It was in the patch notes under the gameplay fixes I think

I still suck at this game and dont really understand most of it, but these videos are super helpful. Thanks man!

extra tip, for the shadow event I recommend improving relation with Italian nation up to 100 before clicking the mission : Italian ambition. Like this you can instant click the mission rein in Italy and they stay no problem with anything else

Hawk playing Austria is always enjoyable to watch! ❤ Looking forward to your videos of the other updated nations in 1.37 Edit: I noticed that they changed some province names in the Austria Region, now they are named like we Austrians would pronounce them in Austrian german slang.

@37:15 instead of wasting your diplo slots for a few months allying everybody and then breaking those alliances once you rein them all in, I suggest improving relations with all of them starting once you accomplish the mission to get 4 electors opinion over 100 and voying for you. You can get and maintain +100 opinion with all the Italian states before The Shadow Kingdom event triggers, couple that with the +50 modifier from that mission you just took and you have +150 for sure, not mentioning the +10 same faith modifier. Dont waste your time and diplo points allying and breaking those alliances a month later. You can also Bestow Imperial Grace if needed (like if they rival you for example - Savoy!), which you will get back for accomplishing the Shadow Kingdom event.

Great content!

Hey Redhawk! I am a somewhat casual EU4 player slooooowly grinding through the achievements and love using your guides! It would be awesome if you could timestamp some events that occur at random times, especially major events like HRE Incidents in this video, so that I don't have to scroll through the whole video looking for it. Love the content!

Ahhhhh the video to fall asleep to, have a good night fellow map painters.

Man, i slept in the middle of your video... This how your voice is so nice and chill man

Hi Hawk, great vid thanks for the guide. I would like to share one optimization we could consider in order to spare diplo points. It is to bestow imperial grace on all the italians right before taking first imperial reform (as you had 60+ imperial authority). With the additionnal +50 from the mission, that would make rein in Italy possible with far less diplo interaction.

i love this style of video

Damm, I see why it took so long. Good stuff man

it's really a shame they didn't do a bit of an overhaul on the HRE mechanics. There's literally no reason for Decentralize to exist.

@6:45 you can spend 4 imperial authority to bestow imperial grace on 4 electors right off the bat. They are already voting for you and their opinion is high enough that the +41 will put them over the 75 threshold required.

Hey RedHawk Love your guides, they made the game a lot more enjoyable for me. Can you do Guides on nations you havent ever covered yet, like Hordes (Oirat) or in this new update american nations or Guides on more general concepts like wars sometimes you say a war should be easy but i struggle

I’m totally gonna watch the full vid

played Theodoro in E-Access, the new Gothic Invasion mechanic is definitely something worthy of a Red Hawk challenge imo.

If you check the patchnotes, they made it to where accepting a royal marriage from burgundy still works for the burgundain inheritance.

34:20 I appreciate them making this an option for those of us who prefer vassal/Junior partner gameplay. I actually like when Burgundy is able to stick around a while as my junior partner as opposed to nearly instantly inheriting them and getting awful borders.

wonderful

I am so glad for name change to Austrian Empire, looks beautiful

1:11:42 Romania has pretty solid defensive ideas so if you do this and then keep them as a march they’re actually really useful for fort occupation during wars.

At 1:00:00, wouldn’t the best way to reduce the Pope in size be to release Provence yourself and ask for those provinces back? Or you can’t release it from Alsace because it’s not their primary culture?

1:31:01 Emperor can take/core any province inside HRE in war peace deal, circumventing any normal coring rules. So could've declared on Köln right away, took the 2 provinces on the side, which would've flipped him into full protestant and then declare another war right after

The franco ottoman alliance hit me in 1469. alt f 4 rip. I didn't know that was a possibility. Had burgundy hungary and bohemia but france with the appanges managed to hold me and spain off long enough for the event to fire and the ottos to join the war. Thought to share since I don't think that event was mentioned at all this vid. But it did really help me a lot, so thank you again for making these.

To make the Hapsburg family privilege more threatening. - make events where if you strengthen it (lose crownlands), the modifiers become positive, but negative (gain crownlands) makes modifiers worse. Howover to prevent spam of meta privileges, if below a threshold (5 or 10% crownland) or a certain amount of influence (50/60 and higher) instigates Hapsburg civil war and breaks up austria into styria, triol, and austria proper. Tiny bit more flavor for an already outstanding tag

hint for a starter... if you really rush downsubjugating bohemia at the starts, can even allie and promise poland land, hire mercs with siege pips etc then you can trigger the polish PU mission before they get the lithuanian pu. means you dont have to cut down poland in annoying wars but just get poland complete easy. and lithuania in a seperate cause size only matters the moment you click the mission

Hi red hawk thanks for your new guide. I’m a 200h new player and tried Austria in 1.36 in which I got 9 reforms in 1515 and eventually got all the corresponding achievements(including conquer the world). When I saw the log before I thought it won’t be powerful cuz for example PU Poland will be more difficult. But it seems like it’s still strong. I was wondering what the other reform path(split rights path）feels like and I’m going to try in this new dlc.

More 2 hours episodes please xD

Hey Red, long time fan. Doing my first WC using your guide. Few little hiccups including Spain in Southern Italy and France (for dev requirements), Anglican UK, A late Poland PU and a delayed inherit Burgundy by 1550 BUT no reformation. A question about the conquering afterwards - do you conquer and own directly or do you play the vassal feed game? I'm worried about growing too slowly. Also have Hapsburgs in line for Britain and Russia.

There should be a cleansing heresy CB available for the emperor to deal with the centers of reformation in a less wacky way than going around making claims bordering claims or no-CB wars, imo.

If someone you attack is allied to an Italian country, defeating the Italian country in the war reins them in and you do not need to ally them, even if the imperial incedent has not fired yet.

@28:30 instead of taking provinces from Bosnia, you could have left them as is and then warned Ragusa. That way Ragusa couldnt attack Bosnia, you dont take up valuable governing capacity and you still get to integrate Bosnia into the HRE later.

How do you handle the Unholy Empire event that happens once you get religious peace? Do we straight up fight the papal states?

If you have no CB on heretic princes you can also declare on their allies that you can reach

I'm pretty sure those centers of reformation have a much easier way to be dealt with - instead of waiting for religious zeal to go away, for Frankfurt and Cologne you could simply have enforced religion on them through vassal interactions after revoking. Since they're OPMs, enforcing religion should automatically convert them and their capital to Catholic and remove the center of reformation. Switzerland however had to be dealt with in the way to showed, as they weren't an OPM. Let me know if I'm wrong about that, but I think this would work.

Thanks for the video, but one thing you don’t usually need to no cb heretic princes you don’t border. It’s a bit tedious but you can usually use alliance chains to get them by clicking co-belligerent on allies of allies.

The value of the subjugation CB on the italians isn't to actually subjugate them, you use the CB to beat them in a war, and just peace out for ducats.

question, can't you just declare on an ally of the centers of reformations if they are to far away ( as long as their provinces are less then 50% ws) and then separate peace them for force religion?

If the center of reformation spawn in your subject province, couldn't you just take the province and convert it, or even convert without takint it for you, as long as if doesn't have religious zeal?

Damn bro 2 hrs. Nice

Red u didnt need spy to lübeck u have the reli idea finished or im wrong ?

is there any video showing what graphical/ui mods u are using?

I just recently almost finished a one faith. ~ 1800, one single province left. In a colony. And a colonist is assigned there and I can't remove it. So one faith failed? Or does anyone got an idea how to solve this issue?

For shadow kingdom is not neccesary allied with anyone. Just improve and keep relations with Italians over 100 before the event triggers. Then using the +50 from the mission you get the 150 very fast.

Couldn't decide what movie to watch. Good thing there's a 2 hour Red Hawk vid instead.

Can you continue the playthrough in a second video? Doesn't necessarily have to be in a guide format I am just curious to see how the rest of the game plays out. Great video!

Why no CB Frankfurt rather that revoking priv and then enforcing religeon through the subject tab? It was an OPM right?

which map mode is this? many of them are not suitable with the latest patch. could u pls tell me exact name of this mode please?

Couple of things. As some other said, if opm converts just declare on their allies you can force non cobeligerent as long as the province isn't stupidly high dev. Second and more important, from what I noticed only first center will have the zeal, other two won't. So if the first one is in opm you are pretty much sorted. As Austria you can take any clay in HRE, convert the center and if you want return it. Also, you have u think 20 years to kill first 3 center before reformed becomes enabled. If you are struggling to get Italians for shadow kingdom just allie the ones that are willing and declare on others. One big war with your allies and it's done. Castile also always helps in Italy especially if they have Naples. Another small note is don't curry favours and put a Habsburgs early on a throne of Castile as they get event to get Isabella and I've never seen AI refuse that. And last thing, seeing how you no longer need galicia from Poland for PU, cut through Poland and eat Lithuania. Get a border with muscovy, warn them and in second war releas as many Lithuanian releasables as you can. That way you have more countries to force into HRE and Lithuania doesn't get rebelius if Poland is too small. I would also take the black see coast from moldavia just to make sure otto doesn't go in raw. I'll deffo go for Austria first in the new patch.

Would really really love it , for when content creators publish guides and they have a certain requirement, such as allying and royal marry Burgundy , please state it at the beginning of the video and not 7.5 minutes into the video so we wont have to restart the game and follow instructions all over again. Other than that , very good video as always and love your content.

Babe wake up, new red hawk austria guide

I have easily +1000 hours in this game and it never occurred to me to try uniting Germany as Austria. Could you make a video where you go down the German focus tree?

1:20:40 doesn't the Deus vult CB work on the protestant country Lübeck in this case, why do you need a claim?

The Polish PU mission seems to still be bugged. I played yesterday and it only gave me the CB when it it was under 300 instead of 400

2 hours??? Time to get some snacks and dive right in!

Is the Prage Christian conversion (to enable the monument) still happening?

Do I need to update or something? My mission tree looks completely different.

Is there anything I can do if burgundy rivaled me other than growing powerful enough to not be eligible as their rival?

Where do you stand on random new world for wc+one religion? I am not sure what I prefer.

If i use expand empire cb after i revoked privilege will this newly added country be my vassal or should i do the trick with "loosing war" to revoke last reform and then revole privilege again?

What country are you from The red Hawk?

The religious zeal modifier is only on the first religious center of each religion. The second and third religious centers do not get the modifier.

Small note about the Burgundian succession: It's ok to accept a royal marriage offer from Philippe. It's only once Charles is on the throne that you need to send it. Often times I'll accept Philippe's request just so that I know when he dies, because Charles will send an offer as soon as Philippe dies and breaks the royal marriage.

Which mod you using for map. Your map looking good

Wish you showed off more of the new stuff like gov't reforms and alt mission trees, but I get you're angling for a guide here. Thanks anyway

What do I do if the center of reformation spawns in my land but it my capital?

As far as I know they fix Royal Marriage thing for Burgundy in this patch. You are eligible if they sent you too

What’s the chances of us getting an Aztecs guide this dlc?

it feels like hawk is saying his burgundian succession bit every austria guide. "Usually it happens in the 1480s" happens in 1460s most of the guides. Or am I just misremembering?

I'll def get this DLC when it goes on sale, I spent all my money on Vic3 Grand Edition 😔

Two hours of Hawk, nice.

One thing I would suggest doing is to rival Bohemia at the start of the game. Since you are going to PU them so early you can snag a lot of power projection and give yourself a boost to monarch point generation very early on.
