I nevert got a personal union without cheating...

Simply whore our your family and kill the target lands heirs so long until your ruler is showing up...
High prestige and military power helps.
More land does also the job.


Aaah, wait. And you can just demand the crone of the target country when a successions crisis happens. That force a personal union.

Excellent.

Europe is currently an absolute MESS, because they're all allied with each other. Well, for the most part. Man, brandenburg has, what, 4 territories? I attacked them... suddenly, 104 THOUSAND, thats right, 104k army showed up on my doorstep. Fucking HRE.

I actually cast war with Riga. Who pulled Lith. Who pulled Poland. Poland then pulled austria, burg and sweden. from there, it just went insane.

War exhaustion can be used to defeat countries larger then you. They will usually keep taxes on and build up war exhaustion. Eventually they will get rebels and you will be able to push them back.

Also, I got one personal union the entire time I have played, and it was me being Russia, and after crushing the HRE and becoming emperor, I inherited France  :D

Playing currently as Sweden. Conquered Denmark, conquered most of Norway (Castille got the rest :s), started colonisation, conquered Maya, beat down a blobbing Mecklenburg, became HRE.

Going well so far!  :D

Mannnn, I was killing heirs from Poland for like, a whole minute, and they kept pulling the same five or so - all over a hundred years old, one of them was 1000-and-something years old... Not one of them was mine. They had like, 30+ marriages, hurr...

Stupid game.

You must take the rest of Norway! Scandinavian pride demands it! (Plus then you get to become Scandinavia instead of Sweden).

You took a more westernly approach than I did: play as Sweden, conquer Norway, then Denmark, form Scandinavia, conquer the Baltics and push back the Hansa, then conquer ALL the Russias and colonize North America starting with Canada. Oh, and then just for the lulz get an unexpected Personal Union with Austria, which controls 1/3 of Europe and most of the former Ottoman Empire. 12 years before the end of the game.  :'(

I'm highly tempted to go edit the save so that the game will end in like 1860 or so, so I can integrate Austria into Scandorussamerica, before exporting to Victoria 2 and forming a liberal megastate (I did a test export, and I'm a liberal constitutional monarchy with universal suffrage) and proceeding to ignite a sort of late Napoleonic War to liberate all of Europe from the yoke of the backwards monarchs of the age.


I wanted to try becoming HRE, but once I wound up as the first major Protestant state (and once I absorb Austria, the *only* major Protestant state) that was kind of off the table. Are you trying to go full innovative/free trade/free subjects?

Invade, invite. Same thing.

I would, but I'm waiting for nationalistic bastards to cool off.

What's the light olive drab patch to your south, in Central Asia between you and Persia? Looks like one of the hordes, or maybe Khorasan?
