8:53 Actually the Cossacks have a long beef with nobility. It was particularly evident under the Polish rule, when peasants from all over the Commonwelth would flee to the stepps to escape feudal bonds. Them not having nobility definitely makes sense.

@@sho6498 not really, in theory, just like in everything humans have been involved, there will be those with power and those without. Among the Cossacks. The term nobility, was more about influence, military experience and most importantly how good the guy was at making other Cossacks get rich from plunder. Just like there was nobility among the Mongols, there was a sort of nobility among the Cossacks. But this nobility was based more on personal achievements and plunder, than on blood. Also at the end of the day the Cossacks also knew that serving that purpose would make them richer than standing against the Tzardom. Its why they expanded to fast to the East. Pure Greed and desire of riches.

Believe it or not, there is a difference between returning cores by just selecting them in the "cede provinces" window or if you do it from the "core return" window. If you take cores from "core return" it costs less warscore but gives you more aggressive expansion, and if you take cores from "cede provinces" it will cost more warscore but give less aggressive expansion.

Not always important but still - return core from the peace deal menu will give some +relation towards you for the nation you've returned cores to. It might be good to improve your own vassals of course,but sometimes - to achieve enough relation with third nation to secure an alliance that is otherwise impossible or prevent strong nation to enter a coalition. Obviously this is not Zaporozhye specific thing and circumstantial, just keep in mind as an extra source of opinion🙏

Great video man!❤ This one can get OP, one of my most delightful games ever, but it requires sooooo much RNG and care for a good start...many times Lithuania force convert you, many times Otto's would not support independence, sometimes you just got going and muscovy is nah I take all of you bro. Many different random setbacks can occur. But with good power base circa 1500 it can become a monstroucity. After many tries I came to the conclusion it is worth to reset if Otto's won't support you and when they do - try maintain their alliance for as long as possible (they WILL want some of your land) - so focus Lithuania,Muscovy,Teutons,Poland,Sweden even...and try obtain Bohemia as ally too asap after getting freedom. Try form Ruthenia asap too (keeping sich rada of course) and absorb Muscovy in several wars. Once you do a good run of the first 70-80 years it becomes great great fun. In the mid 1500's I had enough power to start Otto dismantle. And by absolutism it was already unstoppable. The raze,Ortodox and republic combo is crazy and real fun to play Again thanks for the video:)❤ P.S. on eu4 pause since 50 days....these videos are like nicotine band for me😂😂😂

i like the background the wood colour really gives your webcam some warmth

having the alliances broken is such a Cossack thing XD. When i play as Zaparozhie i always accept Vassalizations and then kinda start messing with alliances. It always end up in chaos, which makes such a fun nation to play.

At first I thought there were three things I'd like to see from a Montenegro campaign: option 1, form Dalmatia then Italy. Option 2, form Serbia then restore Byzantine empire. Option 3, the hardest option, play tall and make Montenegro the jewel of the Balkans. Honestly though, I just want to watch a tall Montenegro playthrough.

Next up you should play as the free cossack state starting as lithuania

You dont lose more RT with frequent election, the cost scales with term lengh, there isnt even a problem with rounding.

man, i love stacking cavcombat as Zaporizhya+forming poland. can even take esp+horde+aristo. full cav is fun af

nice house bro the wood goes crazy

Return core province costs less AE but more warscore. It's only relevant specifically if you are going for cores of multiple nations. You can only take cores without paying diplo points for the nation you declared the war over. So if you had multiple subjects with cores, you can only take provinces directly with no diplo cost of the nation that had the cores you declared over. So "return core" is mostly only relevant for saving diplo points, which I'm fairly sure Hawk does not care about

Really great to see you play a non monarchy. Super fun nation too

Hey, I actually played that country in the grandest LAN in November. It's actually even more busted than most people think.

the sich rada is one of *the* best cav-focused governments in the game, especially if you grab aristo before getting it. the ability to get both aristocartic and horde is so good!

cossack bandits let's go

Nestor Makhno would be proud

As Montenegro, ypu should take exploration and expansion ideas. Then, take any montainous province in Subsaharian Africa.

i have the worst luck ever😭😭 i was playing byz and my ruler died, which sucked but i got the event that gives you a op heiress when your leader is old and the heir was a 6 6 6, i was so happy and then the ottomans declared war on me when they had a mil tech advantage and i wasnt ready.

I was thinking of doing this run the other day and forming horde Poland

I hope in the future Paradox will flesh out Zaporozhia more, give it and the rest of Ruthenian principalities and Ruthenia more unique missions, events, etc.

It's good to note that all pirate republics can get a gov. reform that lets them raze too, so this isn't the only "horde republic" ^^

I think call of the steppes makes you take plutocracy ideas so you lose aristocracy so maybe press the button after you pick the ideas. Thats the reason you lost nobles. Ideas that add to cavalry was helpful with this faction on my play through. But in general fun to watch as always.

11:45 I honestly didn't care but now i have to say that you don't have the extra click to go on the "Give Core back" button but have enough clicks left to transfer the province to your vasall. Click on the province -> click to open the war beligirents -> look for your vasall and click on your vasall -> and to close the menu again.

12:43 Zaporozhie can take Plutocratic AND Horde instead of Aristocratic. So they have one idea group more.

They lose the Nobles estate, but can get Parliament which would normally lose you nobles anyway.

The war with Muscovy went badly. Proceeds to take provinces from them

There was a dude, probably most famous person Montenegro had/has called Petar Petrović Njegoš. He wrote a poem of a sort about a dude (name of the poem is False emperor Šćepan the little) who went around Montenegro introducing himself as Peter III Romanov emperor of Russia. If you feel ambitious I would say go for PU over Muscovy/Russia. Or get free from Venice (out of two provinces with cores Venice one has most of population nowadays since other one is just mountains) become the emperor of HRE and have alliance + rm with muscovy/russia

The Paradox got it all wrong. Starting from making ruthenian states russian principalities, and ending up with removing the nobility estate from the cossack republic. Cossacks had their nobility, of course, it just was called (Cossack) Starshyna.

11:45 "i cant be bothered to do an extra click to return cores tab" Ah yes, but the extra clicks to cede occupation to your vassal...? :p

It’s so nice that paradox actually added flavor for Ukrainian countries like Zaporozhia or Kyiv etc. Plus some of them are pretty OP like the Cossacks

you can switch to noble republic to get aristocratic and switch back to sich rada

Best Lithuanian releasable i guess. Definitly the most unique one. 😁

Probably the most op government

With those cav bonuses, he took infantry cossacs?

that feel when Ottomans coalition you 😢

Come on man you had to have declared war on the ottomans with your insane cav combat ability 😔

Slava!

Technically you are doing way more clicks by not returning province since you have to hand over every occupation, return province scales with your personal province warscore reduction, cedeing provinces to vassal does not, ergo more clicks and waste of warscore.

Well done, really got from Zaporyzhzhia to a major! 🇺🇦

There's an old movie about these guys but I don't remember the name

If you have watched the video by the student, youll know that this government type is so powerful that it can simultaneously fight with france, ottomans and austria on its own and come out on top. You just need to first form poland for the national ideas.
