Now release everything and show us the map.

Use the "Prestige" cheat if you run out of enough prestige to do it.

You need prestige to release countries? Huh?

And always release the smallest ones for extra fun!

I'd say this is more than just winning the game.  This is total domination.  Dude, you owned the game.

I would, but I deleted the save, and uninstalled the game, since it seems to be bugged. Gonna be reinstalling it next weekend and trying out either the Pope or Muscowy.

And thanks EuhreJac. I've heard someone completed world conquest in the 1500s with France though, and this was only on normal.

That's a shame. I was hoping we'd get to see you messing around with Earth Spain untill 1836 rolled around.

I did mess around with them till the game ended. Was pretty boring, a few quests for independence, founding fathers that I executed, Agricultural Development and Minorities Prospering, a few provinces being assimilated to the Castillian culture, all provinces eventually coring, Felipe IV taking the throne, the Divine Supremacy and Church Attendance Duties National Ideas being adopted to speed up cultural assimilation etc.

And in case anyone was wondering, yes those are ships off of all my coasts in the first screenshot, seemed like the easiest way to combat pirates, don't know how other people handle them.

In a rush to finish my conquest and form the Norman Empire.

From there I can work on my Infamy which is as high as shit. Also, Hungary delcared war on me and brought a bunch of allies in on it. Luckly for me, almost all of his allies are with him in Eastern Europe. Seeing as I am in North Western Europe, I should just occastional get a 1000 Hungariens knocking on my door occastionally. But it manages to be annoying as piss seeing as I cannot talk to the thousand rebels walking around or get enough men to kill them off.

Edit: Aforementioned rebels are also drity cheaters. How can poorly armed and under trained peasants can beat gaint professional armies which are armed to the tooth and have much better leadership.

Spoiler: Norman Empire (click to show/hide)

I have finally conquered the Netherlands and declared myself as an Empire. Yes, I was disspointed at the lack of no "Norman Empire" nation title, but who gives a rats ass?

Due to that gaint blob in Egypt and Western Middle East may mean Iraq will not be Iraq anymore. Crimea is still a war powerhouse, only matched by me. Saxony hates my guts hard, and their the leaders of the HRE. May have to watch my back. May keep France independent, due to their sheer number of allies.

Click to Embiggen.

My Delhi Sultanate in the MEIOU mod. If things look very different to you, that's because they are very different in this mod. Many, many, many new provinces, events, and other things to contend with, not to mention a somewhat broken nomadic system, that is set to be fixed in the next release of the mod (no country that borders the nomads can get any colonists right now). Additionally, the mod combines the Dei Gratia mod that enables various new religions and provincial minority religions, and SRI AI that makes countries behave in a somewhat more sensible way.

The year is 1563 or something, the Sultanate controls most of the subcontinent, save for one bit on the northern end of Sri Lanka. I've started going on expeditions of conquest to take over Indo-china, slowly but steadily, but Ayutthaya is surprisingly more powerful than it looks, due to sheer province density and the wealth of it's trade goods, and a high population density. My large multiethnic empire is prone to revolt in the assorted provinces, and thus I cant bring my full forces to bare against them, and the war which won me a great deal of the territory between the Ganges and the current border with Ayutthaya came at great cost of manpower and time. Worryingly, once I had taken that region over, they swiftly began consolidating their control over the region, annexing a few small neighbors and reaching down into Malacca.

Since the border is fairly narrow, it shouldn't be too hard to hold. I could probably ruin the country for a long period of time if I could dedicate all of my armies to the job. However, even if rebellion wasn't a problem, the other, more pressing one is my neighbor to the North. Insane, unstoppable, uncountable, unyielding nomads united under the great Kazakh Khanate. I can hold them back, as they have a real hard time invading through the Hindu Kush mountain ranges, and the Himalayas provide another insurmountable obstacle in the form of wasteland provinces, but I can't really push through and start really hurting them. They've just plain got too many men. And I've got a standing army of 130,000. But I know their secret. Soon, Kazakhs, Soon, I WILL have ALL your potassium.

Yeah, like that one time the British didn't want a revolution going on in their colony.

Playing EU III and need some advice so my Empire stays afloat.

My reputation is at 96.00, which is very very bad. Any ways to decrease it other then waiting around?
