Mountains should give you some serious bonuses, so you might as well hold of Serbia while you push into Romania.

I've seen you around the EU3 thread, right? The terrain works more or less the same way. There's a ton of added complexity to combat that's not in EU3, but terrain is largely unchanged.

Chances are Serbia is going to be able to do jack shit to the Bulgarian troops, so we only have to worry about Romania. Although Romania won't be that tough either.

Yeah, I've played it a lot, but I've never picked up any other Paradox games. In that case you should be able to bleed the bastards on those mountains for as long as necessary, then clean them up.

Check whether you have a non-aggression treaty with the Ottomans. It not only prevents declarations of war, but also combat when you are already at war with them.

You can simply cancel it and steamroll the sick man of Europe.

Holy schist, this thread is mica me sick.
DF Players never truly leave.  They just abandon the fortress for a few years and then reclaim.

For a while there I was afraid you'd lose the game. How are you handling all the annexations? Maybe you could take a revolt risk screenshot for the next update.

Annexing doesn't really increase your revolt risk, it just increases your belligerence. Although from the amount of Kaiserreich I've played, belligerence doesn't really matter since most major wars are caused via events.

Provinces that don't belong to you have partisans, even if you have 0% dissent. It can decreases with Anti-partisan duty (best unit for that is Garrison with a mp brigade).
Unless he gets an event for changing the core/national provinces, he's gonna have revolt risk on occupied provinces.

Ok so, this is a little gamey, but I started playing and cancelled the non-aggression with the Ottomans thinking it would be a walkover... 23 Ottoman divisions poured in from Istanbul... So I'm thinking we should postpone the invasion for now. Also, sorry for the lack of posts, I've got a lot on my plate but I'll try to get in a few updates every now and then.
