Be not affrighted: Botnik Strategies’ weekly Sunday Service returns in less than three hours on twitch.tv/BotnikStrategies.
Tonight everything is new again, as updates and fresh content to EU IV force a restart of our beginners’ stream as Muscovy.
Beyond the game mechanics, we’ll talk politics, propaganda, palace intrigue, and insult European nations to the ecclesiastical hymns of Divna Ljubjovic, the phaggy europop of Lithuania’s Dinamika, renditions Yiddish folk songs by Fraidy Katz, and many more!
Every few months I spend another hour trying to figure out Europa Universalis IV. Every few months I learn absolutely nothing
That roach is dead - look at the deepfake of Liz that Channel 4 released last Christmas and compare it to the pre-recorded message that palace officials offered to COP26 delegates. Which one looks more real? Could this mean she’s already dead and The Firm is buying itself extra time to prepare for a transition of power?
Back at this French RP in EU IV where we kill England before it’s too late: 10 am PST on twitch.tv/BotnikStrategies
The absolute best thing to do in Europa Universalis IV is to play as Scotland and liberate Wales from England. Seriously. Historically, generally around the time period it's feasible, the Welsh were being undeniably oppressed and they fucking hated the English. A lot of the measures used there to control and Anglicize the Welsh would be used against the Irish. There were a lot of unsuccessful Welsh revolts and rebellions. So, if you make them successful? You've got an ally for life who literally always wants to kick England's ass. They don't even need a legit reason. 'You know how England has Derbyshire? That should be mine, let's kick England's ass.' 'England insulted us. Let's kick England's ass.' 'You know how England's a different religion? Yeah, the same one as you--let's go kick England's ass.' It's awesome, and one of the few choices I can defend morally in that cynical, cynical game. Celtic Solidarity ftw!
I'm playing EU IV Insert me playing as the Russians. I'm rivaled to Prussia. I declare a trade war. Next thing I know, I'm at war with the entire Holy Roman Empire, Sweden, and the U.K. with my four colonies Novorossiya, Kuba, Annadar(Anna's gift, named after my Tsaritsa), Alyseka, and Surinam, Spain, a revived Byzantine Empire, Denmark(which annexed Norway), Poland, Walachia, and Moldavia on my side. I effectively created a world war over a simple trade conflict. Gained Finland though.
Wow! You create the first world war without kill an archduke. Nice one!
EU IV anon here. The game updated so I had to start a new game. Insert me playing as the Livovians. I'm rivaled to Prussia. I declare a trade war. Next thing I know, I'm at war with the entire Holy Roman Empire, Sweden, and the U.K. with Russia, Spain, a revived Byzantine Empire, Denmark(which annexed Norway), Poland, Walachia, and Moldavia on my side. I effectively created a world war and got fucked up. So did Poland and Silesia seeing as they were the major battle grounds. I cri evryt iem.
I haven’t played EU IV in some time but the Livovians aren’t an easy start. Congratulations on your historical gangbang.
what a magnificent beast
