In this video titled EU4 A to Z - FORMING A CELTIC UNION As Brittany Is INSANE I do a playthrough as Brittany in Europa Universalis 4 1.33 France. This is the series titled A to Z where I attempt to play every* nation in EU4 in alphabetical order. Of course I had to remove some nations so the challenge doesn't get too boring. In this video I play as the nation of Brittany, and I attempt to conquer Great Britain as "Little Britain" while also attempting to conquer every Celtic nation. So let's see if I managed to do it! I hope you guys enjoy this series. If you enjoyed this video consider leaving a like and subscribing for more content in the future.

    Hey Redhawk. The reason why England declared war on the Irish OPM is because once the pop up about them "going to declare war" happens they will never change their mind. This is particularly useful if you learn the AI is going to attack you, because you can go crazy and make a dozen alliances and then the AI will suicide attack you

    Brunei makes me think of prunes, and this is a fruit, so it's close enough to wine. So how about as Brunei, achieve the "trading in wine" modifier? But obviously, Brunei being a Sunni nation won't actually care about wine, so that means they won't get money out of it, so Brunei also should go bankrupt while achieving this goal.

    Norway/Denmark has an event where it can give Scotland back their islands for a relations boost, which the AI will sometimes take. That's how Scotland got those back. Then Denmark had leftover Norse claims that it could declare with, but with no bordering provinces anymore it stopped wanting to take them and so used all the remaining warscore on releasing nations.

    I think one of the things that makes EU great is the ability to do so much random stuff and rearrange known history in a variety of ways. Just having crazy stuff happen while on a regular campaign is an awesome surprise, but both shooting for crazy stuff and regular campaigns are fun. It was cool seeing Asturias get resurrected.

    I’m playing as Burgundy rn and I got Bohemia in the succession crisis. When I was forced into an independence war by event, all of Austria’s allies, including Spain, joined the war since they were the Emperor, as well as Bohemia’s own allies. If Poland hadn’t intervened, I don’t think I would’ve won it solo.

  • @nickcutter2312
    @nickcutter23122 жыл бұрын

    4:55 I think Burgundy declared war on Austria even though they fixed the AI not knowing the Emperor's allies because Charles (the starting heir) always has bold fighter so naturally starts utterly stupid wars although he might not have been in leader by that point so I wouldn't know. 10:52 In the more recent patches I've seen the AI actually vassal feed, so AI muscovy would have given their claims to Beloozero letting them occupy it and giving it to them in the peace conference. Another example would be with Armagnac who every game I play and in this video gain Bordeaux because France gives them their cores there for whatever reason and giving to them. I think the strange part is that it will only give claims or cores to other AIs instead of humans.

Honestly, I recommend having more unserious fun ones with the big nations, or at least the ones that are covered by many youtubers. This is because, whether intended or not, the A to Z series is kinda becoming a repository for videos that, even though technically not guides, provide insight on more obscure EU4 tags.

    If he take Galicia he should take every territory that was in celtic control in the past: most of Spain (Castille and Leon at least), almost all Portugal, almost all France (except some regions in the south), northern Italy, Switzerland, half of Germany, south of Poland, Bohemia, Austria and even part of the Balkans and the interior of Turkey (Galatia). The British Isles of course and also even Iceland. It would be a very fun idea to a challenge with any celtic nation of the game (irish minors, Cornwall, Wales, the Isles, Man, Gaeldom and Brittany). Hope he will do it.
