    best Nations to form the nation of
  • 00:01:41
    Malaya shaja or new santara whatever you
  • 00:01:43
    want to call it which of course later on
  • 00:01:45
    gets even more insane trade focused
  • 00:01:47
    National ideas which makes this one of
  • 00:01:50
    the best definitely top three maybe even
  • 00:01:52
    the best Nations to play a trade heavy
  • 00:01:55
    playthrough with by playing as malaka
  • 00:01:56
    you will go on to dominate the Malay
  • 00:01:58
    Peninsula and eventually some of your
  • 00:02:00
    Northern neighbors right here in
  • 00:02:01
    Southeast Asia and of course you'll go
  • 00:02:03
    on to conquer the entirety of Sumatra
  • 00:02:06
    right here Java Borneo these other
  • 00:02:08
    Islands over here conquering clove
  • 00:02:10
    producing provinces colonizing the rest
  • 00:02:12
    of these provinces that don't produce
  • 00:02:13
    cloves and you'll make them produce
  • 00:02:15
    cloves and by no time you will own this
  • 00:02:17
    entire region and be the most powerful
  • 00:02:19
    nation in the world before you go on to
  • 00:02:20
    face the Europeans or colonize even more
  • 00:02:23
    definitely one of the best and one of my
  • 00:02:25
    favorite nations in the game definitely
  • 00:02:27
    one of the richest so sit back relax and
  • 00:02:29
    learn want you to do as malaka all right
  • 00:02:31
    all right here we are as malaka and
  • 00:02:33
    obviously the first thing we want to do
  • 00:02:35
    is sort of take a look at our mission TR
  • 00:02:37
    right here which heavily focuses on us
  • 00:02:39
    vassalizing a bunch of Nations around us
  • 00:02:41
    and of course it does give us the CBS to
  • 00:02:43
    do that and missions do want us to
  • 00:02:45
    vassalize a bunch of Nations to give us
  • 00:02:46
    further bonuses so as we can see if we
  • 00:02:48
    veliz pahang here right to the north of
  • 00:02:50
    us we get a subjugation CB on these
  • 00:02:52
    three other guys that are located right
  • 00:02:54
    here if we build up our army we gain
  • 00:02:55
    more subjugation CBS on various Nations
  • 00:02:58
    down here and of course we do need to
  • 00:02:59
    defeat aaya majapahit Nations like that
  • 00:03:02
    and then these missions right here focus
  • 00:03:04
    on us building manufacturers and stuff
  • 00:03:05
    like that to gain some nice bonuses in
  • 00:03:08
    those provinces and of course the game
  • 00:03:09
    also wants us to become a tributary of
  • 00:03:11
    Ming which is actually something we do
  • 00:03:13
    want to do in case Ming doesn't blow up
  • 00:03:15
    and we can fight their tributaries up
  • 00:03:17
    here but more on that later first you're
  • 00:03:19
    going to go into your States and summon
  • 00:03:20
    the diet you can choose whichever agenda
  • 00:03:22
    is best for you then we're going to give
  • 00:03:23
    the ulma religious State and clerical
  • 00:03:25
    advisory Council along with religious
  • 00:03:27
    diplomats and clerical education then
  • 00:03:29
    we're going to give the Amir premacy of
  • 00:03:31
    the Amir increased levies and
  • 00:03:32
    aristocratic counselors and you can
  • 00:03:34
    notice that the merchant guilds already
  • 00:03:36
    start with orang L alliances which gives
  • 00:03:38
    us plus 25% domestic trade power we're
  • 00:03:40
    going to let them keep that but
  • 00:03:42
    additionally we're also going to give
  • 00:03:43
    them land of Commerce patronage of the
  • 00:03:45
    Arts commercial Advisory Board and
  • 00:03:47
    indebted to the merchant guills we
  • 00:03:48
    definitely need to be careful with the
  • 00:03:50
    influence that these guys have and even
  • 00:03:52
    though there's lots of other privileges
  • 00:03:54
    we can grant them they're really useful
  • 00:03:55
    for us such as tropical City Planning
  • 00:03:57
    right here and later on some
  • 00:03:59
    colonization ones we're going to hold
  • 00:04:00
    off on them for now and then we're also
  • 00:04:02
    going to give the Dei and then we're
  • 00:04:04
    going to be giving the Dei some
  • 00:04:05
    privileges later once we conquer some
  • 00:04:07
    non Sunni provinces so that's about it
  • 00:04:09
    for now then you can seize land next is
  • 00:04:12
    time to hire some advisers so go into
  • 00:04:13
    your advisers right here and get
  • 00:04:15
    whichever level one admin advisor you
  • 00:04:17
    want I'm going to get this tax guy right
  • 00:04:18
    here get a dip rep or improve relations
  • 00:04:20
    level one dip adviser I don't have those
  • 00:04:22
    guys as a level one guy so I'm just
  • 00:04:23
    going to get this trade efficiency guy
  • 00:04:25
    and then get a morale discipline Fort
  • 00:04:27
    defense or mower level one mil adviser I
  • 00:04:29
    do have a morale and Fort defense guy so
  • 00:04:31
    I am going to hire this morale guy right
  • 00:04:33
    here now it's time to rearrange our
  • 00:04:34
    armies a little bit as you can notice
  • 00:04:36
    our lane Force limit is 12 right here so
  • 00:04:38
    we're just going to take this Army and
  • 00:04:39
    build up three more infantry regimens
  • 00:04:41
    just like that and next of course we do
  • 00:04:43
    need to get a super powerful navy up
  • 00:04:46
    that is something that we have to do
  • 00:04:47
    over here in this region because navies
  • 00:04:49
    are super super important as you can see
  • 00:04:51
    our Naval Force limit is 24 that's going
  • 00:04:52
    to go up quite rapidly so first you're
  • 00:04:54
    going to take your light ships right
  • 00:04:56
    here and select a mission and tell them
  • 00:04:58
    to protect trade and malanka and go home
  • 00:05:00
    during war and then we're also going to
  • 00:05:02
    start building up some galys we already
  • 00:05:04
    start off with six I recommend building
  • 00:05:06
    nine more keep one Province free that
  • 00:05:09
    you don't build a galle in so we can
  • 00:05:10
    build up the free company in it later on
  • 00:05:12
    there we go I've started building up
  • 00:05:13
    five ships right here there's six 7 8 9
  • 00:05:16
    and once that's in order we can go ahead
  • 00:05:18
    and kickart our mission trade here by
  • 00:05:20
    trying to do this mission where we
  • 00:05:21
    basically need to make bahang here not
  • 00:05:23
    exist or make them our vassel and of
  • 00:05:25
    course we do need to work on this
  • 00:05:26
    because we do want to become a Ming
  • 00:05:28
    tributary like I said and of course we
  • 00:05:30
    need to work on this one Army has 100%
  • 00:05:32
    of the force limit and an equal or
  • 00:05:33
    bigger Army than majapahit which of
  • 00:05:35
    course will come true as soon as these
  • 00:05:36
    regiments get built up so simply go
  • 00:05:38
    ahead and start spying on pahang right
  • 00:05:40
    here and start improving relations with
  • 00:05:43
    Ming additionally we're going to look
  • 00:05:44
    for one to two allies one up here that's
  • 00:05:47
    not aaya so they can help us fight aaya
  • 00:05:49
    and one more down here preferably
  • 00:05:51
    someone from Borneo or from java that
  • 00:05:53
    could help us potentially fight some of
  • 00:05:55
    these guys right here so try and Ally
  • 00:05:57
    someone up here whichever guy you want
  • 00:05:59
    and someone over here once again
  • 00:06:00
    whichever guy you want additionally of
  • 00:06:01
    course you can go ahead and set some
  • 00:06:03
    Rivals preferably the Nations that have
  • 00:06:05
    rivaled you or nations that you're going
  • 00:06:06
    to fight PR soon in my game right here
  • 00:06:08
    as we can see patani is available I'm
  • 00:06:10
    going to fight them soon so I rival them
  • 00:06:12
    kantan as well and some of these guys
  • 00:06:14
    may Ally each other if you rival them
  • 00:06:15
    but that's completely expected and there
  • 00:06:17
    we go there's K as well Nations we're
  • 00:06:19
    going to fight pretty soon once your
  • 00:06:20
    troops get built up obviously you will
  • 00:06:22
    be able to take the mission make a show
  • 00:06:23
    of force where seak becomes our vassel
  • 00:06:25
    right here and we gain a subjugation CB
  • 00:06:27
    on Jambi and Deli which is this nation
  • 00:06:29
    right here and this nation right here
  • 00:06:31
    with the fact that seak is our subject
  • 00:06:33
    right here we immediately have access
  • 00:06:35
    over this straight Crossing so we don't
  • 00:06:37
    need to even put our Navy out and risk
  • 00:06:39
    it getting destroyed since for example
  • 00:06:41
    the Nations that we fight may have lots
  • 00:06:43
    of allies and their combined Fleet will
  • 00:06:44
    be larger than ours as we can see this
  • 00:06:46
    Mission tree gives us a ton of
  • 00:06:48
    subjugation CBS three right here two
  • 00:06:50
    from this one five or six more from this
  • 00:06:52
    one you get the point once you've built
  • 00:06:54
    up a spy Network on pahang right here
  • 00:06:56
    and your first batch of boats has
  • 00:06:58
    finished building you are ready to
  • 00:06:59
    declare your first war and that's going
  • 00:07:01
    to be either versus pahang right here or
  • 00:07:03
    Deli or Jambi the three nations that we
  • 00:07:05
    have the initial CBS on and you can
  • 00:07:07
    declare on whichever one of them you
  • 00:07:09
    want to whichever one is the easiest
  • 00:07:10
    let's take a look at bahang right here
  • 00:07:12
    they're actually Allied to brunai so
  • 00:07:14
    that is going to be a little bit
  • 00:07:15
    annoying let's take a look at Jambi here
  • 00:07:16
    they're Allied to kanton which is
  • 00:07:18
    perfect that's a pretty easy War we can
  • 00:07:20
    vassalize Jambi and vassalize kanton or
  • 00:07:22
    full anex one full anex the other it
  • 00:07:24
    doesn't matter what we actually want to
  • 00:07:26
    do right here is at a certain point have
  • 00:07:28
    four vassals just so we can take off
  • 00:07:30
    this mission that requires us to have
  • 00:07:31
    three vassals and then take off this
  • 00:07:33
    Mission which requires us to have four
  • 00:07:35
    vassals which later of course is going
  • 00:07:37
    to grant us a pretty good CB right here
  • 00:07:39
    on nations with Malay primary culture so
  • 00:07:41
    you can choose to conquer these guys you
  • 00:07:43
    can choose to vassalize them as well but
  • 00:07:45
    at a certain point you should look to
  • 00:07:47
    have four subjects it really doesn't
  • 00:07:48
    matter who those four subjects are
  • 00:07:50
    either way there's my Declaration on
  • 00:07:51
    Jambi right there and I am going to
  • 00:07:53
    co-belligerent Kellon up here there we
  • 00:07:55
    go pretty simple you don't need any
  • 00:07:57
    allies if you're fighting one to three
  • 00:07:59
    or four nations of course make sure to
  • 00:08:01
    recruit a general when you start the war
  • 00:08:04
    and make sure to recruit an admiral as
  • 00:08:06
    well and there we go for me this very
  • 00:08:08
    quick and easy war is done with the help
  • 00:08:09
    of my subject seak I just white pieced
  • 00:08:12
    Kettle right here full Siege these two
  • 00:08:13
    guys down and now I'm going to go ahead
  • 00:08:15
    and a separate piece kill onon right
  • 00:08:17
    here make them my vassel and take all of
  • 00:08:19
    their money and I'm also going to
  • 00:08:20
    separate piece vassalize jomie right
  • 00:08:22
    here and take all of their money some of
  • 00:08:24
    these guys of course will be disloyal
  • 00:08:26
    right now since you have three subjects
  • 00:08:27
    they're going to band together and stuff
  • 00:08:28
    like that but it's no big deal you can
  • 00:08:30
    keep a hold of them very easily so there
  • 00:08:32
    we go now we have one subject that we
  • 00:08:34
    got for free and two more from our first
  • 00:08:35
    war right here in my next one or two
  • 00:08:37
    Wars I'm going to expand a little bit
  • 00:08:39
    myself because of course we want to grow
  • 00:08:41
    ourselves as well and then I only need
  • 00:08:43
    one more subject in order to accomplish
  • 00:08:44
    both of these missions right here in
  • 00:08:46
    order to accomplish this mission for
  • 00:08:48
    four subjects right pretty simple at the
  • 00:08:49
    start I did Ally Lan Shang which is my
  • 00:08:52
    nation up here that could potentially
  • 00:08:54
    help me versus aaya and now I'm also
  • 00:08:56
    going to Ally Sunda which is my nation
  • 00:08:57
    from down here that could potenti
  • 00:08:59
    potentially help me with some of these
  • 00:09:00
    guys over here you don't even really
  • 00:09:02
    need allies for a malaka playthrough but
  • 00:09:05
    it doesn't hurt to have some of them of
  • 00:09:06
    course once you get more than two
  • 00:09:08
    subjects make sure to give the Amir
  • 00:09:10
    strong dudgies as well if it's not that
  • 00:09:12
    easy to fight any of the initial Nations
  • 00:09:14
    that I mentioned you could of course spy
  • 00:09:16
    on some of these additional guys up here
  • 00:09:18
    to fight them you don't have to take out
  • 00:09:20
    bahong first in order to get the CB for
  • 00:09:22
    these guys before you fight them you can
  • 00:09:23
    definitely fight them before the mission
  • 00:09:26
    that's exactly what I'm going to do in
  • 00:09:27
    my game right here I'm just going to spy
  • 00:09:28
    on T after you picked up a few vassals
  • 00:09:31
    and your Force limit has increased you
  • 00:09:32
    can definitely get the free company up
  • 00:09:34
    and running you'll sometimes get this
  • 00:09:36
    event where you can gain corruption or
  • 00:09:37
    lose corruption what I recommend doing
  • 00:09:39
    is debasing currency to get some extra
  • 00:09:41
    income and then just getting rid of that
  • 00:09:44
    corruption now that I've gotten a spy
  • 00:09:45
    Network on patani I'm just going to
  • 00:09:47
    continue my Conquest versus them since
  • 00:09:49
    they're only Allied to Assa right here
  • 00:09:50
    and there we go there's my next
  • 00:09:52
    declaration as you can see we're
  • 00:09:54
    fighting maybe one war to vassalize
  • 00:09:56
    someone then one war to expand a little
  • 00:09:58
    bit one more to vassalize someone one
  • 00:10:00
    more to expand a little bit of course
  • 00:10:01
    you can expand a lot in two or three
  • 00:10:03
    Wars or you can keep vassalizing Nations
  • 00:10:06
    it's totally up to you but that's sort
  • 00:10:07
    of the generally balanced way you want
  • 00:10:09
    to go at this point because all three of
  • 00:10:11
    my subjects are loyal I can take the
  • 00:10:12
    mission vassal kingdoms right here which
  • 00:10:14
    will increase my income from vassals by
  • 00:10:16
    100% for 20 years pretty important that
  • 00:10:18
    you not get out of the way early while
  • 00:10:19
    you still have those vassals another
  • 00:10:21
    very quick and easy War as you can see
  • 00:10:23
    I'm avoiding fighting any more annoying
  • 00:10:25
    Nations like brunai right here which is
  • 00:10:27
    like the two Nations I already want to
  • 00:10:28
    fight but either way this war is done
  • 00:10:30
    and there's patani full annexed you
  • 00:10:32
    could have vassalized them in your game
  • 00:10:34
    you could also full Annex them now
  • 00:10:35
    something you need to keep in mind about
  • 00:10:37
    this subjugation CB that we're getting
  • 00:10:38
    on a bunch of these other guys it's not
  • 00:10:40
    like it was before a couple of patches
  • 00:10:42
    ago you could declare on a nation with
  • 00:10:44
    the subjugation CB for example like
  • 00:10:46
    Delhi right here and you could just take
  • 00:10:49
    provinces from them however in this
  • 00:10:50
    latest patch right here if you use the
  • 00:10:52
    subjugation CB you actually have to
  • 00:10:55
    vassalize the nation if you want to take
  • 00:10:57
    something from them so you first you
  • 00:10:58
    have to choose subjugation and then you
  • 00:11:00
    could take provinces for yourself so
  • 00:11:02
    don't declare with that CB if you don't
  • 00:11:04
    actually want to vassalize them if you
  • 00:11:06
    actually want to take land from them spy
  • 00:11:08
    on them and use the regular Conquest CB
  • 00:11:10
    once a little bit of time has passed
  • 00:11:11
    after one of your Wars you can
  • 00:11:13
    definitely continue to declare on anyone
  • 00:11:15
    over here out of the initial four guys
  • 00:11:16
    that's easy or these two guys right here
  • 00:11:19
    that we have the subjugation CB on now
  • 00:11:21
    I'm going to be declaring on Kow right
  • 00:11:22
    here they're only elect to Pai and my
  • 00:11:24
    subjects will do quite a lot of help as
  • 00:11:26
    well so there we go there's my next
  • 00:11:28
    declaration in your game like I said you
  • 00:11:30
    may have already vassalized some of
  • 00:11:32
    these guys the order doesn't really
  • 00:11:33
    matter we're just looking to expand a
  • 00:11:35
    little bit and get those initial for
  • 00:11:36
    subject and there we go another quick
  • 00:11:38
    and easy War done for me I'm also going
  • 00:11:40
    to full Annex these guys up here because
  • 00:11:42
    I plan on vassalizing Delhi pretty soon
  • 00:11:44
    right here in one of my next Wars or
  • 00:11:46
    pahang right here and that's going to
  • 00:11:48
    put me at four subjects so I can
  • 00:11:49
    continue to expand a little bit and
  • 00:11:51
    there we go that's another War done
  • 00:11:53
    since as malaka you will start making
  • 00:11:55
    quite a bit of money pretty quickly you
  • 00:11:56
    should immediately start building up
  • 00:11:58
    buildings once once they become
  • 00:11:59
    available start off with the
  • 00:12:00
    marketplaces first in the center of
  • 00:12:02
    trade and Esty provinces and then work
  • 00:12:04
    your way through them after that it's
  • 00:12:05
    churches after that it's workshops and
  • 00:12:07
    so on I'm of course going to build one
  • 00:12:09
    in my capital and one in this other
  • 00:12:10
    Center of Trade that I have make sure to
  • 00:12:12
    build them up in your subjects as well
  • 00:12:14
    you will get that land either way later
  • 00:12:15
    on periodically check on what's
  • 00:12:17
    happening with Ming if they're
  • 00:12:18
    collapsing if they're losing tributaries
  • 00:12:20
    in my game right here none of these guys
  • 00:12:21
    are their tributaries anymore which is
  • 00:12:24
    perfect I don't have to become their
  • 00:12:25
    tributary either but we may also want to
  • 00:12:27
    get involved over here later on so be
  • 00:12:29
    careful with that too if Ming doesn't
  • 00:12:31
    blow up definitely make sure to try and
  • 00:12:33
    accomplish that mission where you become
  • 00:12:34
    their tributary it won't really hurt us
  • 00:12:36
    at all now that a little bit of time has
  • 00:12:38
    passed I'll be continuing my Wars by
  • 00:12:39
    declaring on bahong right here a nation
  • 00:12:41
    out of the initial three nations that we
  • 00:12:43
    want to fight I still have two left over
  • 00:12:45
    them and Delhi of course I delayed this
  • 00:12:46
    a little bit because they're Allied to
  • 00:12:48
    brunai and brunai is a little bit
  • 00:12:49
    annoying to pece out but still this is
  • 00:12:51
    something that has to be done so there
  • 00:12:53
    we go there's my Declaration on bahang
  • 00:12:55
    I'll probably vassalize them and full
  • 00:12:56
    Annex Delhi in this war which of course
  • 00:12:58
    I am am going to co belligerant even
  • 00:13:00
    though some additional Nations come in
  • 00:13:01
    but with the help of my vassals I can
  • 00:13:03
    easily do it make sure to not declare
  • 00:13:05
    with something like this though of
  • 00:13:07
    course once you've gotten Tech 4 in
  • 00:13:08
    every category and once the Renaissance
  • 00:13:10
    has spawned make sure to activate the
  • 00:13:12
    encourage development State edict in
  • 00:13:13
    your capital of malaka right here
  • 00:13:15
    because we do want to develop and fores
  • 00:13:16
    spawn the Renaissance in our Capital
  • 00:13:18
    sure it is going to be pretty expensive
  • 00:13:20
    since it's jungle since it's tropical
  • 00:13:21
    and stuff like that but we can negate
  • 00:13:23
    that a little bit and we do want to
  • 00:13:24
    develop our Capital specifically as well
  • 00:13:26
    for this mission right here so Activa
  • 00:13:28
    encourage development it should already
  • 00:13:30
    be above 15 Dev and you should also go
  • 00:13:32
    ahead and expand infrastructure and
  • 00:13:34
    additionally in your game if the
  • 00:13:36
    merchant guilds aren't too influential
  • 00:13:39
    you could also give them tropical City
  • 00:13:41
    Planning right here for an additional 5%
  • 00:13:43
    Dev discount be careful with this though
  • 00:13:44
    this is not something you have to do be
  • 00:13:46
    careful of the merchant Guild's
  • 00:13:47
    influence I'm comfortable with it in my
  • 00:13:49
    game so I am going to give it to them
  • 00:13:51
    and there we go develop malaka till you
  • 00:13:52
    spawn the Renaissance I wi piece these
  • 00:13:54
    guys down here now I'm going to separate
  • 00:13:56
    piece full Annex Deli just like that and
  • 00:13:58
    now it's only pahang and brunai left
  • 00:14:00
    we're going to have to wait a little bit
  • 00:14:02
    for that but either way now that I've
  • 00:14:03
    taken all of these provinces over here
  • 00:14:05
    in this region whether directly or
  • 00:14:07
    through subjects and once you've done
  • 00:14:08
    the same once again whether directly or
  • 00:14:10
    through subjects you will be able to
  • 00:14:11
    take the mission subach subjugation
  • 00:14:13
    which gives us a subjugation CB on a
  • 00:14:15
    bunch of these nations over here in
  • 00:14:16
    Sumatra but we're not really going to be
  • 00:14:18
    using that we don't want to end up with
  • 00:14:20
    80 vassels of course sure you could
  • 00:14:22
    Annex these guys and then get these guys
  • 00:14:24
    as subjects but we're going to be
  • 00:14:25
    working on a Diplo related idea group
  • 00:14:27
    for our first idea group so we don't
  • 00:14:29
    really want to spend all those Diplo
  • 00:14:30
    points developing so even though we got
  • 00:14:32
    that CB to subjugate all these guys
  • 00:14:33
    right here we're still going to conquer
  • 00:14:35
    them for your tier 2 government reform
  • 00:14:36
    if you really want to lean into the
  • 00:14:38
    whole trading thing even more I
  • 00:14:40
    recommend enforcing Trader privileges
  • 00:14:42
    which is available to us of course
  • 00:14:44
    because we're an Eastern plutocracy this
  • 00:14:46
    gives us 5% more trade efficiency and
  • 00:14:48
    plus a 30% more trade range however if
  • 00:14:50
    you don't think the bonuses are good
  • 00:14:51
    enough I do recommend going with
  • 00:14:52
    strength and Noble privileges for
  • 00:14:54
    additional Manpower and amir's influence
  • 00:14:56
    since this is really not that important
  • 00:14:57
    for now we're going to need it more
  • 00:14:59
    later on once we take a bigger hold of
  • 00:15:00
    all of these trade notes for now I'm
  • 00:15:02
    going to go with strength and Noble
  • 00:15:03
    privileges but later once we take care
  • 00:15:05
    of all these guys I do plan on swapping
  • 00:15:07
    to enforce Trader Privileges and after
  • 00:15:08
    finally pcing out brunai since they were
  • 00:15:10
    in another War as well now I can wrap it
  • 00:15:12
    up with bahang right here which I am
  • 00:15:14
    going to make my fourth and final
  • 00:15:16
    subjects for now and I'm also going to
  • 00:15:18
    take all of their money and there we go
  • 00:15:19
    just like that we're at four subjects
  • 00:15:21
    once we get all of them loyal we'll be
  • 00:15:22
    able to take this Mission as well which
  • 00:15:24
    is pretty important for how our campaign
  • 00:15:26
    progresses so after you get four
  • 00:15:28
    subjects work on getting them below 40%
  • 00:15:30
    Liberty desire now that I spawned the
  • 00:15:32
    Renaissance over in my capital of malaka
  • 00:15:34
    as we can see I deved it up to about 39
  • 00:15:36
    right here pretty expensive but it does
  • 00:15:37
    have to be done I can go ahead and take
  • 00:15:39
    the mission I can go ahead and embrace
  • 00:15:41
    the Renaissance additionally once you
  • 00:15:43
    conquer or subjugate bahong you might
  • 00:15:44
    have done it way earlier than me you'll
  • 00:15:46
    be able to take the mission subjugate
  • 00:15:47
    bahong where they lose Liberty desire
  • 00:15:49
    and we gain some Perma claims on other
  • 00:15:51
    areas right here and if you've already
  • 00:15:53
    fought some of these other guys up here
  • 00:15:55
    like I have or when you do you'll be
  • 00:15:56
    able to also take this Mission which
  • 00:15:58
    gives us some morale of armies and
  • 00:15:59
    navies for 20 years and now that all of
  • 00:16:01
    my subjects are less than 40% Liberty
  • 00:16:03
    desire I can also take the mission loyal
  • 00:16:05
    subjects like I said very important we
  • 00:16:07
    gain a perac claim on the suraya area
  • 00:16:09
    which is down here which is an area we
  • 00:16:11
    do want to focus on now because for this
  • 00:16:13
    next mission right here we need majahi
  • 00:16:15
    to not exist and we need to own all of
  • 00:16:17
    those provinces in that area whether
  • 00:16:19
    directly or through subjects after we do
  • 00:16:21
    that we'll gain the actually pretty
  • 00:16:23
    powerful malaka campaign CB against all
  • 00:16:26
    countries with the Malay primary culture
  • 00:16:28
    which gives us a little bit of less
  • 00:16:29
    aggressive expansion and a little more
  • 00:16:31
    Prestige and stuff like that and as you
  • 00:16:32
    know all of these guys right here are
  • 00:16:34
    Malay primary culture which is going to
  • 00:16:36
    make it super easy for us to fight
  • 00:16:38
    anyone over here without actually spying
  • 00:16:40
    on them and stuff like that so if you
  • 00:16:41
    can after this point after you unlock
  • 00:16:44
    this Mission definitely try and focus up
  • 00:16:46
    on this area right here hopefully you
  • 00:16:47
    won't have a strong majapahit or a
  • 00:16:49
    strong Sunda or something like that in
  • 00:16:51
    your campaign and hopefully it's going
  • 00:16:53
    to be easy for you to expand over here
  • 00:16:55
    if not you're just going to continue to
  • 00:16:56
    push into these guys remember without
  • 00:16:59
    using the subjugation CB in my game
  • 00:17:01
    majak isn't really that strong their
  • 00:17:02
    only Allied to baral right here and they
  • 00:17:04
    have these four tributaries which of
  • 00:17:06
    course aren't going to be in that war
  • 00:17:07
    but still I do need to build up my fleet
  • 00:17:09
    a little bit before I fight them so I'm
  • 00:17:11
    just going to get a couple of more light
  • 00:17:12
    chips right here and a couple of more G
  • 00:17:14
    since I paid off all my burger loans I
  • 00:17:16
    am going to go ahead and take new burger
  • 00:17:17
    loans just like that once again be
  • 00:17:19
    careful of the merchant Guild's
  • 00:17:20
    influence and I'm going to build up some
  • 00:17:22
    more gys and I'm also going to work on
  • 00:17:24
    building some building as we can see
  • 00:17:25
    about 10 or 15 years into the game our
  • 00:17:27
    income is is already pretty good after
  • 00:17:29
    10 years have passed after you've gotten
  • 00:17:31
    a subject and of course after you've
  • 00:17:33
    taken this Mission and this Mission you
  • 00:17:35
    can definitely go ahead and start
  • 00:17:36
    annexing your subject but first make
  • 00:17:38
    sure to give the Amir the integration
  • 00:17:40
    policy so you don't lose any dipl rep
  • 00:17:42
    just like that and then you can start
  • 00:17:43
    annexing whichever subject you want to
  • 00:17:45
    I'm going to do it with seak first in my
  • 00:17:47
    game I've just noticed that demok right
  • 00:17:49
    here doesn't actually have any allies
  • 00:17:52
    and they do own provinces in the area of
  • 00:17:54
    suraya that we do need to conquer so
  • 00:17:57
    this is an excellent opportunity for me
  • 00:17:59
    I'm going to go ahead and declare on
  • 00:18:00
    them immediately and just call in Sunda
  • 00:18:02
    right here I'm not even going to go in
  • 00:18:04
    and do anything since they're just going
  • 00:18:05
    to transfer occupation of these
  • 00:18:06
    provinces to me since I have claims and
  • 00:18:08
    since I'm going to set them as provinces
  • 00:18:10
    of vital interest so there we go there's
  • 00:18:11
    an easy declaration for me for some
  • 00:18:13
    provinces that we need down here like I
  • 00:18:15
    said it is pretty important to focus on
  • 00:18:17
    completing this mission right here as
  • 00:18:19
    soon as you unlock it we do desperately
  • 00:18:21
    need the malaka campaigns CB and there
  • 00:18:23
    we go very quick and easy War done I'm
  • 00:18:25
    only going to take the two provinces
  • 00:18:27
    that are required for that Mission we're
  • 00:18:28
    going to take care of the rest of these
  • 00:18:30
    guys later even though it would be super
  • 00:18:31
    simple to full Annex them let's just
  • 00:18:33
    make a simulation right here that maybe
  • 00:18:34
    you guys wouldn't have had this
  • 00:18:36
    opportunity or something like that no
  • 00:18:38
    money no war UPS nothing like that and
  • 00:18:39
    there we go now we own two out of the
  • 00:18:41
    four provinces that we need for that
  • 00:18:42
    mission and since I'm already here as
  • 00:18:44
    soon as I core these provinces up I'm
  • 00:18:46
    going to declare on majahi I'm not
  • 00:18:47
    declaring immediately because they have
  • 00:18:49
    cores on these provinces and they'll
  • 00:18:51
    stop getting CED if I declar majahi but
  • 00:18:53
    in fact I'm not even cing one of them
  • 00:18:55
    since it's blockaded I need to core this
  • 00:18:56
    one to core this one let's just get it
  • 00:18:58
    over with and declar on majab paket
  • 00:19:00
    right here for the conquest of suraya
  • 00:19:02
    their Capital Province and I'm going to
  • 00:19:03
    call in Sunda to help out a little bit
  • 00:19:05
    even though we don't really need their
  • 00:19:06
    help there we go there's the next
  • 00:19:07
    declaration and there we go now I can
  • 00:19:09
    full anex ma japak because remember we
  • 00:19:11
    do need to full Annex them or at least
  • 00:19:13
    make them not exist for this mission
  • 00:19:15
    right here we don't only need to own
  • 00:19:16
    these four provinces that's exactly what
  • 00:19:18
    I'm going to do and I'm going to take
  • 00:19:19
    all of their money sure they're a pretty
  • 00:19:21
    good Nation to vassalize as well since
  • 00:19:22
    they have a lot of cores on some
  • 00:19:23
    provinces over here if you find them
  • 00:19:25
    blown up but we do need to accomplish
  • 00:19:27
    this mission for this season B and there
  • 00:19:28
    we go just like that now we can go ahead
  • 00:19:30
    and declare on every single nation with
  • 00:19:33
    Malay primary culture which are pretty
  • 00:19:34
    much all of these guys right here and
  • 00:19:37
    this is pretty much the malaka campaign
  • 00:19:38
    CB it's only 80% aggressive expansion
  • 00:19:41
    instead of 100% And it's 150 perge as
  • 00:19:44
    well and the provinces are down to 80%
  • 00:19:47
    cost as well this is the CB we're going
  • 00:19:48
    to be using from now on in order to
  • 00:19:50
    conquer everyone else over here keep in
  • 00:19:52
    mind you don't have to strictly focus on
  • 00:19:54
    this right away if you can't like I said
  • 00:19:55
    earlier if you can't fight majapahit or
  • 00:19:57
    expanding into here after you've
  • 00:19:59
    unlocked that mission focus on taking
  • 00:20:00
    out some more of these guys down here no
  • 00:20:02
    big deal but you do want to work on
  • 00:20:04
    getting it completed as soon as you can
  • 00:20:05
    in your game during that War I annexed
  • 00:20:07
    seak now I'm also going to Annex Jambi
  • 00:20:10
    make sure to get rid of any tributaries
  • 00:20:12
    that you might get after you full Annex
  • 00:20:14
    someone and before you know it you're a
  • 00:20:15
    great power once you start conquering
  • 00:20:17
    some nons Sunni provinces right here it
  • 00:20:19
    is a pretty good idea to give the Dei
  • 00:20:21
    guaranteed Dei autonomy so those
  • 00:20:23
    provinces that aren't Sunni basically
  • 00:20:24
    Thada Hindu animist Mahayana whatever we
  • 00:20:27
    conquer over here so they don't give us
  • 00:20:29
    any religious unity penalties just like
  • 00:20:31
    that so definitely make sure to give
  • 00:20:32
    that out after you conquer some of those
  • 00:20:33
    Province there we go now I have annexed
  • 00:20:35
    jomie as well once you lock admin deck 5
  • 00:20:37
    it will be time for your first idea
  • 00:20:38
    group and for your first idea group as
  • 00:20:40
    malaka I recommend exploration ideas
  • 00:20:43
    this is obvious there are so many
  • 00:20:45
    provinces around us that are uncolonized
  • 00:20:46
    that we need to colonize especially the
  • 00:20:48
    clove producing provinces right here and
  • 00:20:50
    of course we do want to try and get as
  • 00:20:52
    much as we can over here before the
  • 00:20:53
    European nations start arriving and they
  • 00:20:55
    start colonizing themselves and of
  • 00:20:57
    course we don't get from our malakan or
  • 00:20:59
    Malayan ideas nor from our mission tree
  • 00:21:01
    so it is pretty important some of you
  • 00:21:02
    may be thinking why go with exploration
  • 00:21:04
    since we can do expansion right off the
  • 00:21:05
    bat since we're already pretty much
  • 00:21:07
    bordering these uncolonized provinces
  • 00:21:09
    but it is pretty important since we do
  • 00:21:10
    want to discover pretty much everything
  • 00:21:12
    that is undiscovered and after this is
  • 00:21:14
    done we do want to colonize further away
  • 00:21:16
    potentially in Australia or North or
  • 00:21:17
    South America or even going this way
  • 00:21:19
    over to Africa so we definitely do need
  • 00:21:22
    exploration as well so that's why I
  • 00:21:24
    recommend exploration ideas for your
  • 00:21:25
    first idea Group after you've unlocked
  • 00:21:26
    the malaka campaign SE and you can
  • 00:21:28
    expand pretty much everywhere you have
  • 00:21:30
    pretty much a CB on everyone over here
  • 00:21:32
    and you can fight them without spying on
  • 00:21:33
    them without Bing them it is time to
  • 00:21:35
    continue with your conquest and what I
  • 00:21:36
    recommend doing is using the malaka
  • 00:21:38
    campaign CB on Nations that you don't
  • 00:21:40
    border for example Pagan Nan right here
  • 00:21:42
    they might be easy to fight so in your
  • 00:21:44
    game you go ahead and fight them with
  • 00:21:46
    that with the malaka campaign CB make
  • 00:21:47
    them your vassel and then once you reach
  • 00:21:49
    them Annex them and stuff like that so
  • 00:21:51
    continue re Wars if it's someone close
  • 00:21:52
    like Bai in my game right here which has
  • 00:21:54
    found itself without any allies
  • 00:21:56
    definitely declare with Conquest since
  • 00:21:58
    you want those provinces for yourself if
  • 00:21:59
    it's someone far away vassalize them and
  • 00:22:01
    then start conquering provinces next to
  • 00:22:03
    them or something like that so you have
  • 00:22:04
    where to Stage your Landings it's
  • 00:22:06
    totally up to you whether you use this
  • 00:22:07
    one for everyone keep in mind you will
  • 00:22:09
    vassalize them or whether you don't use
  • 00:22:11
    it for anyone and just conquer or
  • 00:22:13
    colonize next to them and then use a
  • 00:22:15
    regular Conquest CB either way there's
  • 00:22:16
    my next War started you're pretty much
  • 00:22:18
    fighting anyone over in this region
  • 00:22:20
    that's easy to fight whoever you want to
  • 00:22:23
    and that's my war with posidon very easy
  • 00:22:25
    there's a full annexation on them I
  • 00:22:28
    always mention this when I get it in
  • 00:22:29
    guides but if you have an inflation
  • 00:22:31
    reduction advisor and a trade efficiency
  • 00:22:33
    adviser you're eligible for the event
  • 00:22:34
    radical reforms where you can fire both
  • 00:22:36
    of them for 200 admin and 200 Diplo
  • 00:22:38
    points what I recommend doing is firing
  • 00:22:40
    them first then getting the points and
  • 00:22:42
    then hiring them back because they are
  • 00:22:43
    pretty good advisor once you lock the
  • 00:22:45
    first idea from exploration ideas that
  • 00:22:47
    allows you to recruit explorers and
  • 00:22:48
    conquistadors what I recommend doing is
  • 00:22:50
    taking your light ship Fleet right here
  • 00:22:52
    and splitting off three light ships from
  • 00:22:54
    it recruiting an Explorer putting them
  • 00:22:56
    in Port and then what what I recommend
  • 00:22:58
    that you do is to start exploring here's
  • 00:23:00
    another opportunity for me I found Cai
  • 00:23:02
    right here a nation that has found
  • 00:23:04
    itself without allies this is what I'm
  • 00:23:05
    talking about when you're looking for
  • 00:23:07
    whichever nation is the easiest to fight
  • 00:23:09
    and since there's no way for me to get a
  • 00:23:10
    regular claim on them and fight them
  • 00:23:12
    with the conquest CB I'm just going to
  • 00:23:14
    declare with the malaka campaign CB sure
  • 00:23:16
    I'm going to vassalize them and after
  • 00:23:17
    this point we're pretty much going to
  • 00:23:18
    start rolling with two or three vassals
  • 00:23:20
    the entire time annexing the old ones
  • 00:23:22
    and getting new ones that were not close
  • 00:23:24
    to bordering so there we go there's my
  • 00:23:26
    Declaration on Cai should be pretty
  • 00:23:27
    simple and now I've defeated Cai what
  • 00:23:30
    I'm going to do is actually make them my
  • 00:23:31
    vassel right here obviously we can't
  • 00:23:33
    take stuff if they're not our vassel
  • 00:23:34
    with the mo campaign CB so I am going to
  • 00:23:36
    vassalize them and then take this one
  • 00:23:38
    Province so then I can continue to spy
  • 00:23:40
    on some other guys up here and down here
  • 00:23:42
    and that's pretty much how you gain a
  • 00:23:43
    foothold in a certain region that's all
  • 00:23:45
    of their money too now I'm going to be
  • 00:23:46
    annexing Kellon as well once you've
  • 00:23:48
    developed malaka up to more than 25 and
  • 00:23:50
    you have a Marketplace and a mosque make
  • 00:23:52
    sure to build a fort in there as well
  • 00:23:54
    that's what's required for this Mission
  • 00:23:55
    and then the Center of Trade will get
  • 00:23:56
    upgraded from level two to level three
  • 00:23:58
    now to continue with my Conquest I'll be
  • 00:24:00
    declaring on the nation of Assa right
  • 00:24:02
    here which is a tributary of pagar young
  • 00:24:04
    now you might think that's annoying to
  • 00:24:06
    do but pagar young is Allied to aaya
  • 00:24:08
    which of course is going to make it
  • 00:24:10
    super annoying to fight them later on I
  • 00:24:12
    do not recommend fighting aaya early on
  • 00:24:14
    in the game not at least until you have
  • 00:24:15
    about half of this region right here and
  • 00:24:17
    you're pretty powerful yourself because
  • 00:24:19
    they are pretty strong sure if you catch
  • 00:24:21
    them weak or if you have good enough
  • 00:24:22
    allies up here you could fight them
  • 00:24:23
    earlier on but generally most of you
  • 00:24:25
    will be fighting them a bit later so in
  • 00:24:27
    this I'm not only going to take Assa
  • 00:24:29
    right here the province but I'm also
  • 00:24:31
    going to make Huger young in their
  • 00:24:32
    alliance with aaya there we go regular
  • 00:24:34
    Conquest once you unlock the colonist of
  • 00:24:36
    course you will have to select a native
  • 00:24:38
    policy as well whether you go with
  • 00:24:39
    Native coexistence where the natives
  • 00:24:41
    don't rise up but you also colonize a
  • 00:24:43
    bit slower or you go with the native
  • 00:24:45
    repression where you do colonize faster
  • 00:24:47
    but you do have to go and beat up the
  • 00:24:48
    natives that live there it's totally up
  • 00:24:50
    to you which of these options you choose
  • 00:24:52
    to go with this is slower but more chill
  • 00:24:54
    this is faster but more active it's
  • 00:24:55
    totally up to you which one you go with
  • 00:24:57
    in my game right right here I'm going to
  • 00:24:58
    go with the native repression policy and
  • 00:25:00
    of course once you choose the policy you
  • 00:25:02
    should immediately start colonizing the
  • 00:25:04
    first things I recommend that you
  • 00:25:05
    colonize are provinces over here which
  • 00:25:07
    of course are sort of closest to the
  • 00:25:09
    Europeans so simply go into the region
  • 00:25:11
    map mode to check whatever is in Malia
  • 00:25:13
    right here and the malaka trade node for
  • 00:25:15
    example these few provinces right here
  • 00:25:17
    and there we go I'm going to start
  • 00:25:18
    colonizing some of these of course once
  • 00:25:20
    you send a colonist somewhere you are
  • 00:25:22
    going to have to get a little bit of an
  • 00:25:23
    army over there and then you need to do
  • 00:25:25
    this that way there's no more natives in
  • 00:25:28
    the province and they can't rise up
  • 00:25:29
    anymore and once you built the fort in
  • 00:25:31
    Mala as well you will be able to take
  • 00:25:32
    this Mission and there we go just like
  • 00:25:34
    that that's a level three Center of
  • 00:25:35
    Trade for first stage ability I
  • 00:25:37
    recommend selecting Justified Wars or
  • 00:25:39
    higher developed colonies obviously this
  • 00:25:41
    is to expand a little bit faster and
  • 00:25:43
    this right here is to get more Dev in
  • 00:25:45
    the colonies once they're finished
  • 00:25:46
    instead of three it's four I'm going to
  • 00:25:47
    go with this one since a isn't that bad
  • 00:25:49
    and now my war with Asa is done
  • 00:25:51
    obviously I'm going to be fil annexing
  • 00:25:52
    them I did make pager young and their
  • 00:25:54
    alliance with aaya I did forget to
  • 00:25:56
    mention this most of you will already
  • 00:25:57
    know that this by now but make sure to
  • 00:25:58
    lower autonomy whenever you can from
  • 00:26:00
    time to time pretty important once you
  • 00:26:02
    get to admin TX 6 obviously you'll
  • 00:26:04
    unlock the workshop a very very
  • 00:26:05
    important building to maximize our
  • 00:26:07
    income over here and to help us become
  • 00:26:09
    one of the richest nations in the game
  • 00:26:11
    so simply go into the workshops right
  • 00:26:12
    here and start building them up in all
  • 00:26:14
    of the high value trade good provinces
  • 00:26:16
    pretty much provinces where the trade
  • 00:26:17
    good has a value higher than two of
  • 00:26:19
    course don't be afraid to keep taking
  • 00:26:20
    out new burger loans and if the burgers
  • 00:26:23
    or the merchant guilds influence isn't
  • 00:26:25
    that high of course I do recommend
  • 00:26:27
    giving them New World Charters as well
  • 00:26:29
    if you are able to take away one
  • 00:26:31
    privilege before that or if you didn't
  • 00:26:33
    give them tropical City Planning or if
  • 00:26:34
    you've paid off your loans it's solely
  • 00:26:36
    up to you whether you want to give this
  • 00:26:37
    it's solely up to you I do recommend it
  • 00:26:39
    but like I said keep an eye on their
  • 00:26:41
    influence and once you do take loans
  • 00:26:43
    don't be afraid to use them to build
  • 00:26:45
    buildings now that I have a big enough
  • 00:26:46
    control of malaka right here basically
  • 00:26:48
    more than 50% I am able to use the
  • 00:26:50
    propagate religion trade policy right
  • 00:26:53
    here which will pretty much autoc
  • 00:26:54
    convert these provinces right here in
  • 00:26:56
    the malaka trade node that aren't Sunni
  • 00:26:58
    too Sunni if you gave out guaranteed
  • 00:27:00
    Demi autonomy you don't have to do that
  • 00:27:01
    since those provinces or well most of
  • 00:27:03
    them don't give you any penalty in my
  • 00:27:05
    game right here even though there's no
  • 00:27:06
    need to do it I am going to do it just
  • 00:27:07
    to show it off and the game pretty much
  • 00:27:09
    Auto selects what provinces to convert
  • 00:27:11
    in my game it selected this one right
  • 00:27:13
    here that I own that's the first one
  • 00:27:15
    it's doing it is pretty slow but it'll
  • 00:27:17
    get it done eventually now to continue
  • 00:27:18
    with my Wars I'll be declaring on Palam
  • 00:27:20
    bang right here who's elect to this
  • 00:27:21
    nation down here they should be pretty
  • 00:27:23
    easy to knock out once again Conquest CB
  • 00:27:25
    because I do border them and well I do
  • 00:27:28
    have the CB on guys that we can't get
  • 00:27:29
    Conquest we're using the malaka
  • 00:27:31
    campaigns and doing something like this
  • 00:27:33
    and now that palen bang has
  • 00:27:35
    unconditionally surrendered I'll be full
  • 00:27:36
    annexing them and I'll also be annexing
  • 00:27:38
    bahong at a certain point obviously
  • 00:27:40
    you'll want to break your alliance with
  • 00:27:41
    whoever you're Allied over here because
  • 00:27:43
    you want to conquer them as well in my
  • 00:27:44
    game Sunda just expanded over here a
  • 00:27:46
    little bit and they're threatening to
  • 00:27:47
    break the alliance with me so why not
  • 00:27:48
    get it over with now that my truce with
  • 00:27:50
    pagar young is up I am going to fight
  • 00:27:52
    them they are a pretty important nation
  • 00:27:53
    that you need to take down because they
  • 00:27:55
    have a gold mine right here and this
  • 00:27:57
    gold mine right here and this gold mine
  • 00:27:59
    right here even though we're not gunning
  • 00:28:00
    for them super fast after we start the
  • 00:28:02
    game are going to be really really
  • 00:28:03
    important with establishing the early
  • 00:28:05
    version of our sort of trade Empire
  • 00:28:07
    right here so now that I've made them
  • 00:28:08
    break their alliance with aaya I can go
  • 00:28:10
    ahead and fight them obviously with the
  • 00:28:11
    conquest CB not malaka campaigns or
  • 00:28:14
    subjugation for your tier three govern
  • 00:28:16
    form I feel like you have a couple of
  • 00:28:17
    options first obviously as
  • 00:28:19
    representatives of the crown to give us
  • 00:28:21
    even more vassel bonuses and stuff like
  • 00:28:23
    that along with the ones we already get
  • 00:28:25
    from our national ideas and from our
  • 00:28:26
    missions right here if you really want
  • 00:28:28
    to focus on playing with subjects
  • 00:28:29
    heavily because we will be having
  • 00:28:31
    subjects until we pretty much take care
  • 00:28:32
    of this entire region it really doesn't
  • 00:28:33
    hurt at all in fact it's really
  • 00:28:35
    beneficial aside from that you could
  • 00:28:36
    also go with Exile Colonial companies
  • 00:28:38
    for plus 5% seller chance and minus 100%
  • 00:28:40
    expel minorities cost sure it really
  • 00:28:42
    doesn't help that much those 5% aren't
  • 00:28:45
    that relevant but every little bit helps
  • 00:28:47
    so either of these two is what I
  • 00:28:48
    recommend you go with I'm just going to
  • 00:28:49
    go with Exile Colonial company and there
  • 00:28:51
    we go now that I'm done with fuger young
  • 00:28:53
    I'm going to full Annex them you're
  • 00:28:54
    pretty much probably full annexing
  • 00:28:56
    anyone located anywhere in these regions
  • 00:28:58
    except for maybe brunai or Sunda or
  • 00:29:00
    majak or someone that can get big but
  • 00:29:02
    there we go there's your first gold mine
  • 00:29:03
    acquired no matter when you did this
  • 00:29:05
    once you fight someone over here you
  • 00:29:07
    have the gold mine any fors that you get
  • 00:29:09
    over here aren't really needed you could
  • 00:29:10
    definitely go ahead and delete pretty
  • 00:29:12
    much all of them why waste money on them
  • 00:29:14
    instead I recommend actually building up
  • 00:29:17
    a couple of fors right here on your
  • 00:29:18
    border with aaya obviously once you core
  • 00:29:20
    up the gold mine make sure to full State
  • 00:29:22
    and activate the encourage development
  • 00:29:24
    State edict in that state right there
  • 00:29:26
    and develop this gold mine up to 10
  • 00:29:28
    production all these are going to be
  • 00:29:29
    pretty expensive since these are not
  • 00:29:31
    very good provinces for deving jungle
  • 00:29:32
    and stuff like that but it is something
  • 00:29:34
    you do have to do so devop that gold
  • 00:29:36
    mine once you complete that mission for
  • 00:29:38
    a level three Center of Trade in malaka
  • 00:29:39
    and once you have more than 60% control
  • 00:29:42
    over malaka you will be able to get the
  • 00:29:43
    mission trade dominance which gives us
  • 00:29:45
    plus 15% trade efficiency for 20 years
  • 00:29:47
    definitely go ahead and do it and then
  • 00:29:49
    the next mission is really important the
  • 00:29:50
    spice must flow where basically we need
  • 00:29:52
    to trade enough of spices to get the
  • 00:29:54
    bonus and be the leading producer in
  • 00:29:55
    spices which by the time you un un lock
  • 00:29:57
    this Mission you will be and that gives
  • 00:29:58
    us plus 5% Goods produced until the end
  • 00:30:00
    of the game very nice once you get up to
  • 00:30:02
    the number of necessary provinces that
  • 00:30:04
    you need to form Malo which is pretty
  • 00:30:05
    much 40 then you need to focus on taking
  • 00:30:08
    care of the provinces that are actually
  • 00:30:09
    required and you'll probably own a bunch
  • 00:30:11
    of them by now in my game right here I
  • 00:30:13
    don't own the province of brunai which
  • 00:30:15
    is over here and I don't own the
  • 00:30:16
    province of makasar which is right here
  • 00:30:18
    but we'll get to them pretty soon
  • 00:30:19
    because now I'll be declaring on banjar
  • 00:30:21
    right here for the reconquest of a Cai
  • 00:30:24
    core for example and I'm just going to
  • 00:30:25
    white piece brunai and barau so I can
  • 00:30:26
    fight pretty soon after that remember
  • 00:30:28
    these are guys we border so we can
  • 00:30:30
    definitely use Conquest CBS on them and
  • 00:30:32
    now that this war is done I'll be giving
  • 00:30:34
    this score back the Cai and I'll be
  • 00:30:35
    taking the rest of the provinces for
  • 00:30:37
    myself with some of these guys you will
  • 00:30:39
    get a lot of aggressive expansion but a
  • 00:30:41
    coalition can't really form and even if
  • 00:30:42
    it does it's just some of these guys
  • 00:30:44
    down here which really isn't a big deal
  • 00:30:46
    and with that now I can spy on brunai as
  • 00:30:48
    well since I border them via this seati
  • 00:30:50
    and I can also spy on bone right here
  • 00:30:52
    which means I'll be able to take the
  • 00:30:53
    provinces that I need to form Malia you
  • 00:30:55
    should be able to form Malia pretty
  • 00:30:57
    quickly relatively this isn't very
  • 00:30:59
    aggressive gameplay or anything like
  • 00:31:00
    that pretty normal you should be able to
  • 00:31:02
    get it done in about 50ish years to be
  • 00:31:03
    honest if you ever find yourself over
  • 00:31:05
    GFF cap before you unlock the courthouse
  • 00:31:07
    as an admin Tech 8 you can definitely
  • 00:31:09
    give the Dei Dei land rights for example
  • 00:31:11
    for additional Guff cap once you lock
  • 00:31:13
    admin Dex 7 it will be time for your
  • 00:31:15
    second idea group and obviously since we
  • 00:31:17
    opened up with exploration ideas we're
  • 00:31:18
    going to be taking expansion ideas for
  • 00:31:20
    our second idea group now to continue
  • 00:31:22
    with my Wars I'll be declaring on bone
  • 00:31:24
    right here since I did manage to get a
  • 00:31:25
    conquest CB on them and there we go I'll
  • 00:31:27
    be declaring with that they're Allied to
  • 00:31:28
    just some small Nations right like
  • 00:31:30
    Bhutan and tiati and by the way
  • 00:31:32
    regarding TTI and Tori you can
  • 00:31:33
    definitely make one of them not exist
  • 00:31:35
    and vassalize the other one because
  • 00:31:37
    that's how these guys get a colonist
  • 00:31:39
    from their mission tree and then they
  • 00:31:40
    will do a little bit of colonizing over
  • 00:31:42
    here for you you can do that if you want
  • 00:31:44
    to although it's definitely not
  • 00:31:45
    necessary either way there's my
  • 00:31:46
    Declaration on bone let's see if we can
  • 00:31:48
    Co belligerant these guys yes I will
  • 00:31:49
    celligent this tiny guy right here and
  • 00:31:51
    there we go there's my next declaration
  • 00:31:53
    to get one more of the provinces that I
  • 00:31:55
    need to form Malaya when you get 1,000
  • 00:31:57
    duckets you'll probably notice that
  • 00:31:58
    you're able to build this Monument right
  • 00:32:00
    here since you will probably have
  • 00:32:01
    conquered this area pretty early on this
  • 00:32:03
    one even at tier 3 it's really not that
  • 00:32:05
    relevant for our gameplay since we're
  • 00:32:07
    not really going for a religious Focus
  • 00:32:09
    playthrough so you don't really have to
  • 00:32:10
    upgrade this one at all just focus on
  • 00:32:12
    building buildings and now that my war
  • 00:32:13
    with these two guys is done I'm going to
  • 00:32:15
    be full annexing both of them after you
  • 00:32:16
    pick up expansion ideas by the way you
  • 00:32:18
    can start focusing on admin there was no
  • 00:32:20
    need to focus on Diplo when you get the
  • 00:32:22
    event prospering times make sure to
  • 00:32:23
    select the second option right here it
  • 00:32:25
    basically creates another level three
  • 00:32:27
    Center of Trade this is where it spawned
  • 00:32:29
    for me right here so there we go and as
  • 00:32:31
    you can see now if I want to build up a
  • 00:32:32
    Marketplace look at the bonuses we're
  • 00:32:34
    going to get from it insane once you
  • 00:32:36
    unlock that second colonist from
  • 00:32:37
    expansion ideas while that first guy is
  • 00:32:39
    working on stuff over here basically the
  • 00:32:41
    uncolonized provinces over in the malaka
  • 00:32:43
    trade note located near you with the
  • 00:32:45
    second guy you should focus on
  • 00:32:47
    colonizing provinces that have the
  • 00:32:48
    potential to spawn the cloves trade good
  • 00:32:51
    which like I said is really powerful two
  • 00:32:53
    provinces already start off with it turn
  • 00:32:54
    notti andori but you can spawn it in
  • 00:32:57
    five more provinces right here these
  • 00:32:59
    four and this one right here so start
  • 00:33:01
    colonizing those if T notti Inori
  • 00:33:03
    haven't already I'm going to do this one
  • 00:33:04
    for example now that my truce with
  • 00:33:06
    brunai is up I'm going to be declaring
  • 00:33:07
    on them and getting the final province
  • 00:33:09
    that I need their Capital province of
  • 00:33:11
    brunai in order to form the nation of
  • 00:33:12
    Malaya there we go I got the conquest CB
  • 00:33:14
    they're Allied to these small guys down
  • 00:33:16
    here and Sulu let's see if we can Co
  • 00:33:18
    belligerant them I will Co belligerant
  • 00:33:19
    these guys down here so that's perfect
  • 00:33:21
    and there we go there's my next War
  • 00:33:22
    started we're still focusing on the
  • 00:33:24
    easiest Nations the easiest Nations that
  • 00:33:26
    you border with Conquest and maybe some
  • 00:33:27
    guys that you don't Mur with the malaka
  • 00:33:29
    campaign CB slow and steady expansion
  • 00:33:31
    although you can be a lot more
  • 00:33:32
    aggressive than this obviously this guy
  • 00:33:34
    has meant for new is players so that's
  • 00:33:35
    why we're taking it slow I'm just going
  • 00:33:37
    to separate piece full Annex these guys
  • 00:33:38
    down here and there we go the war is
  • 00:33:40
    pretty much done since I can't full
  • 00:33:42
    Annex brunai either way in fact I'm
  • 00:33:43
    going to take this instead of that and
  • 00:33:45
    there we go that's that we're done and
  • 00:33:47
    now we have all the necessary provinces
  • 00:33:48
    in order to form Malia something that I
  • 00:33:50
    recommend that you do immediately
  • 00:33:52
    because our missions don't change but we
  • 00:33:54
    gain a way better set of national ideas
  • 00:33:56
    keep in mind malaka ideas are really
  • 00:33:58
    strong as well but Malayan are
  • 00:33:59
    absolutely insane and there we go the
  • 00:34:01
    country changes to Malaya yes please we
  • 00:34:03
    will take New Traditions and Ambitions
  • 00:34:04
    and of course you can go ahead and
  • 00:34:06
    choose your name as well you can become
  • 00:34:08
    shaaya new santara or you can stay as
  • 00:34:10
    Malaya let's stay as Malaya for the
  • 00:34:11
    purposes of this guide because that's
  • 00:34:13
    the name I've been talking about and
  • 00:34:15
    there we go just like that we are Malaya
  • 00:34:17
    a way better color keep in mind that the
  • 00:34:19
    amir's policies will go away after this
  • 00:34:21
    so make sure to give them back strong
  • 00:34:23
    duchies and the integration policy and
  • 00:34:24
    of course let's take a look at Malayan
  • 00:34:26
    ideas starting off at plus 15% global
  • 00:34:28
    trade power and plus 10% morale of
  • 00:34:30
    armies finishing off with plus 10% ship
  • 00:34:31
    durability in the meantime we have plus
  • 00:34:33
    20% Global settler increase which means
  • 00:34:35
    the game does want us to colonize and
  • 00:34:37
    then we have plus 25% gy combat ability
  • 00:34:40
    absolutely insanely powerful then plus
  • 00:34:42
    15% trade efficiency morale of navies
  • 00:34:45
    and Naval Combat bonus off of own Coast
  • 00:34:47
    another Merchant and ship trade power
  • 00:34:49
    trade steering and goods produced super
  • 00:34:51
    super nice so Malayan ideas very good
  • 00:34:53
    for trade focused gameplay over in this
  • 00:34:56
    region that were load located in right
  • 00:34:57
    now I'm also going to Annex Cai once you
  • 00:34:59
    form Malaya you also gain various permac
  • 00:35:01
    claims around you which is very nice at
  • 00:35:03
    this point my relations with Ming are
  • 00:35:04
    finely good enough in order to take the
  • 00:35:06
    mission Emissary to the emperor which
  • 00:35:07
    will make us their tributary this isn't
  • 00:35:09
    bad or anything like that it's not like
  • 00:35:10
    us being their vassel or something and
  • 00:35:12
    let's check and see the Ming situation
  • 00:35:14
    right here they are looking pretty
  • 00:35:15
    strong they have passed a couple of
  • 00:35:17
    reforms but their Manpower is down so I
  • 00:35:19
    don't know what's going to happen with
  • 00:35:20
    them but they do still have some
  • 00:35:22
    tributaries mainly Nations we want to
  • 00:35:23
    fight right here these guys tondo for
  • 00:35:25
    example so you can choose whether to
  • 00:35:27
    fight condo for example and fight Ming
  • 00:35:30
    as well maybe blockade them or something
  • 00:35:31
    like that get some money from them or or
  • 00:35:33
    whether you want to become a Ming
  • 00:35:34
    tributary and not fight Ming for example
  • 00:35:36
    when you fight tond or something like
  • 00:35:38
    that it's totally up to you I'm going to
  • 00:35:39
    take this Mission there we go just to
  • 00:35:41
    say we completed it we are a Ming
  • 00:35:42
    tributary now obviously you can cancel
  • 00:35:44
    that tributary for example right away
  • 00:35:46
    just like that you are going to lose
  • 00:35:48
    stab though now that I've chilled a bit
  • 00:35:49
    in my game I'm going to continue by
  • 00:35:50
    fighting any other nations that are left
  • 00:35:52
    over here luu for example I'm going to
  • 00:35:54
    COBOL Tori as well and there we go by
  • 00:35:57
    the time you form Malia you'll
  • 00:35:58
    definitely be the strongest Nation over
  • 00:36:00
    here and there really shouldn't be any
  • 00:36:01
    major Nations located here you're pretty
  • 00:36:03
    much cleaning up any of these guys right
  • 00:36:05
    here and getting ready to fight some
  • 00:36:06
    major guys if they're located over here
  • 00:36:08
    like aaya Lan shank mer diet pegu
  • 00:36:11
    Whoever has grown in this region in my
  • 00:36:13
    game it's looking pretty similar to the
  • 00:36:14
    start of the game and aaya isn't that
  • 00:36:16
    strong anymore so we could be fighting
  • 00:36:18
    them pretty soon after I take care of
  • 00:36:19
    these guys additionally if at any point
  • 00:36:21
    you do make malaka the highest valued
  • 00:36:23
    trade node in the world which honestly
  • 00:36:25
    isn't really that hard you will be able
  • 00:36:26
    to the mission trade Supremacy 2 for
  • 00:36:28
    10mer candal ISM and now I can also
  • 00:36:30
    activate propagate religion in the
  • 00:36:32
    malakas as well as you know I'm already
  • 00:36:34
    doing it over here let's see what it's
  • 00:36:35
    converted by now and it's actually
  • 00:36:37
    looking pretty good so why not activate
  • 00:36:39
    it over here too remember this is just a
  • 00:36:40
    choice if you've given the Dei this
  • 00:36:42
    policy right here guaranteed Dem
  • 00:36:44
    autonomy there's totally no need to do
  • 00:36:46
    this this fifth Merchant that I got from
  • 00:36:48
    expansion ideas I'm putting him in the
  • 00:36:50
    Philippines and since I use the malakan
  • 00:36:51
    campaign CB versus these two guys I am
  • 00:36:54
    going to go ahead and make them my
  • 00:36:55
    vassel just like that both of these guys
  • 00:36:57
    we don't have a vassel right now and
  • 00:36:59
    it's good to have some at least so there
  • 00:37:01
    we go and with this because tedori is my
  • 00:37:03
    vassel I'm simply going to wipe out
  • 00:37:04
    tiati and with that they're going to get
  • 00:37:06
    a colonist and they're going to colonize
  • 00:37:08
    some provinces here for me as well now
  • 00:37:09
    I've annexed Cai and once you feel
  • 00:37:11
    strong enough and once you've
  • 00:37:12
    Consolidated most of this region and
  • 00:37:14
    mostly minor nations are left you're
  • 00:37:15
    free to continue to expand up here in
  • 00:37:17
    this region and take the provinces that
  • 00:37:19
    we need from aaya pretty much in the
  • 00:37:21
    malaka trade node our cor right here in
  • 00:37:23
    the Malaya region as well so whenever
  • 00:37:25
    you feel strong enough go ahead and
  • 00:37:27
    declare in my game theyve Allied K and
  • 00:37:29
    Mang Mao right here and K is a decent
  • 00:37:31
    sized Ally but I will call in my Ally
  • 00:37:33
    Lan Shang right here declare a
  • 00:37:34
    reconquest for this and there we go
  • 00:37:36
    we're already powerful enough to be able
  • 00:37:37
    to take these guys down so go ahead and
  • 00:37:39
    declare on them once you've cleaned up
  • 00:37:41
    most of the guys over here and once you
  • 00:37:42
    form Malia and now that I've beaten up
  • 00:37:44
    autai enough to where they'll give me
  • 00:37:46
    everything that I have claims on I'm
  • 00:37:47
    going to go ahead and piece them out for
  • 00:37:49
    that plus some money right here and
  • 00:37:50
    there we go there's my first war versus
  • 00:37:52
    aaya done some players I know they like
  • 00:37:54
    to stop right here and pretty much focus
  • 00:37:55
    on the entirity of malaka the malakas
  • 00:37:57
    and the Philippines only regarding trade
  • 00:37:59
    nodes or Malaya Indonesia and the
  • 00:38:01
    malakas only regarding regions but you
  • 00:38:03
    can continue to push up further into the
  • 00:38:05
    sayam trade node or into the Indochina
  • 00:38:07
    and Burma regions or sayam and Burma
  • 00:38:09
    trade nodes whatever you want to do but
  • 00:38:11
    after you do that after you defeat autai
  • 00:38:13
    you will be able to take this mission
  • 00:38:14
    right here you gain 200 mil points and
  • 00:38:16
    further perac claims on these areas
  • 00:38:18
    right here so the game does sort of want
  • 00:38:20
    you to expand over there and there are
  • 00:38:21
    some really nice monuments over here
  • 00:38:23
    such as the Grand Palace of Bangkok for
  • 00:38:25
    example another that you might be able
  • 00:38:27
    to take by the 1500s is unite new
  • 00:38:29
    santura right where you're get a claim
  • 00:38:30
    on the entire Indochina region which is
  • 00:38:32
    this right here along with dipl and our
  • 00:38:35
    government rank changes to Empire if it
  • 00:38:37
    already isn't one very nice this is a
  • 00:38:39
    monument you can upgrade for example the
  • 00:38:41
    minus 2 National unrest and the autonomy
  • 00:38:43
    change and culture stuff is pretty nice
  • 00:38:45
    at tier three at tier one not that good
  • 00:38:47
    but still you'll definitely have no
  • 00:38:48
    shortage of money all these provinces
  • 00:38:50
    that have colonized over here all of
  • 00:38:51
    them spawned cloves without alt F foring
  • 00:38:54
    or anything the chance to spawn cloves
  • 00:38:55
    is pretty high more than half but if you
  • 00:38:57
    don't get the spawn cloves you can just
  • 00:38:59
    alt f4 when the event happens for
  • 00:39:01
    example I didn't spawn cloves here for
  • 00:39:03
    tier four government reform I recommend
  • 00:39:05
    maintaining the balance of power and by
  • 00:39:07
    on the time the age of reformation
  • 00:39:09
    spawns your realm should look a little
  • 00:39:10
    something like this basically we started
  • 00:39:12
    off as malaka in these couple of
  • 00:39:14
    provinces that we own right at the start
  • 00:39:15
    and started by kicking off our mission
  • 00:39:17
    Che with some of the vassalization and
  • 00:39:19
    subjugation missions related to the four
  • 00:39:21
    nations located north of us and to the
  • 00:39:23
    three nations located south of us one of
  • 00:39:25
    which we get as a subject for free after
  • 00:39:27
    that you should have worked on expanding
  • 00:39:28
    a little bit yourself and acquiring four
  • 00:39:30
    vassals in order to take off this
  • 00:39:32
    mission that we need to have three
  • 00:39:33
    vassals for and to take off this mission
  • 00:39:35
    where we need to have four vassals for
  • 00:39:36
    so you can get the malaka campaign CB
  • 00:39:38
    later on and vassalize Any Nation that's
  • 00:39:41
    not close to you pretty much any Nation
  • 00:39:42
    over in this super region right here but
  • 00:39:45
    after that it's pretty straightforward
  • 00:39:46
    and smooth expanding taking care of any
  • 00:39:48
    minor Nations around you that you border
  • 00:39:50
    and conquering them straight up annexing
  • 00:39:52
    their land and maybe fighting some other
  • 00:39:54
    nations that aren't that close to you by
  • 00:39:55
    vasel ing taking some land next to them
  • 00:39:58
    so you can spy on someone else next to
  • 00:39:59
    them in order to conquer that land after
  • 00:40:01
    that and during all that expansion and
  • 00:40:03
    vassalization you should have at some
  • 00:40:05
    point acquired 40 provinces and after
  • 00:40:06
    you acquired 40 provinces you should
  • 00:40:08
    have worked to get the remaining
  • 00:40:09
    provinces that you don't have in order
  • 00:40:11
    to form the nation of Malaya of course
  • 00:40:12
    that's something you do want to do you
  • 00:40:14
    do want to take their missions you do
  • 00:40:15
    want to take their National ideas and
  • 00:40:17
    after that it's pretty smooth and
  • 00:40:19
    continued expansion over in the three
  • 00:40:21
    regions of Malaya Indonesia and the
  • 00:40:23
    malakas pretty much the three trade
  • 00:40:24
    nodes of malaka the malakas and the
  • 00:40:26
    Philippines and after you've
  • 00:40:27
    Consolidated most of this region and
  • 00:40:29
    only minor nations were left you should
  • 00:40:30
    have worked to fight some of these guys
  • 00:40:32
    that were north of you over here aaya
  • 00:40:34
    first most likely if they were also
  • 00:40:36
    powerful in your campaign and after
  • 00:40:37
    taking care of them shift your focus
  • 00:40:39
    between fighting these minor guys over
  • 00:40:41
    here and these guys over here and of
  • 00:40:43
    course by the end of the game as Malaya
  • 00:40:44
    you should look to control something
  • 00:40:46
    like Burma Indochina Malaya Indonesia
  • 00:40:48
    and the malakas that's a pretty good
  • 00:40:50
    region to go for for a normal Malaya
  • 00:40:52
    campaign but if you want to go for more
  • 00:40:54
    than that you can definitely colonize
  • 00:40:56
    some of the stuff in the Oceania region
  • 00:40:58
    and Australia over here and establish a
  • 00:41:00
    colonial nation and I do recommend going
  • 00:41:02
    for China as well and possibly India if
  • 00:41:04
    you want to in a more expansion focused
  • 00:41:06
    campaign but of course by this point we
  • 00:41:08
    haven't only been focused on conquering
  • 00:41:10
    and vassalizing Nations around us you
  • 00:41:11
    should have also worked on colonization
  • 00:41:13
    because we did open up with exploration
  • 00:41:15
    and expansion ideas you should have
  • 00:41:16
    explored well as much as you can and you
  • 00:41:18
    should have colonized provinces over
  • 00:41:20
    here like I said earlier starting off
  • 00:41:21
    with some of these provinces right here
  • 00:41:23
    around Sumatra in the region of Malaya
  • 00:41:25
    then once you get your second colonist
  • 00:41:26
    focusing on these clove provinces over
  • 00:41:28
    here in most of which I've already
  • 00:41:30
    spawned cloves which is very very nice
  • 00:41:32
    and then of course after you wrap that
  • 00:41:33
    up and this you'll have a third colonist
  • 00:41:35
    once again from expansion ideas right
  • 00:41:36
    here and then you should work on
  • 00:41:38
    colonizing the entirety of what's left
  • 00:41:40
    of these three regions right here Malaya
  • 00:41:42
    Indonesia and the malakas and like I
  • 00:41:43
    said after that you could go for
  • 00:41:45
    additional provinces in Australia and
  • 00:41:47
    Oceania I do recommend that and after
  • 00:41:49
    you're done with that you can continue
  • 00:41:50
    colonizing if you want to over in North
  • 00:41:52
    and South America or Africa depending on
  • 00:41:54
    what your close for of the campaign are
  • 00:41:56
    but of course because malaka and Malaya
  • 00:41:58
    is such a rich nation and you'll be
  • 00:41:59
    swimming in duckets the entirety of the
  • 00:42:01
    campaign you should have been focusing
  • 00:42:02
    on your economy as well I've upgraded
  • 00:42:04
    every Center of Trade that I could up to
  • 00:42:06
    level two our Capital should be up to
  • 00:42:08
    level three as well thanks to that
  • 00:42:09
    mission 2 and I'm going to show you the
  • 00:42:11
    buildings that I've built in my game so
  • 00:42:12
    far you should have looked to build
  • 00:42:13
    something similar these are all the
  • 00:42:15
    marketplaces in all the center of trade
  • 00:42:16
    and Esty provinces these are all the
  • 00:42:18
    workshops in the high value trade good
  • 00:42:19
    provinces a bunch of churches as well a
  • 00:42:21
    bunch of army buildings here and there
  • 00:42:23
    and of course soon after you get to
  • 00:42:25
    admin Tech 8 which I still haven't in my
  • 00:42:27
    game because of course we've been
  • 00:42:28
    conquering and working on an admin idea
  • 00:42:30
    group you should work to build as many
  • 00:42:31
    cour houses as you can because governing
  • 00:42:33
    capacity is going to become a problem
  • 00:42:35
    sooner rather than later and of course
  • 00:42:36
    once you're done with all of that later
  • 00:42:38
    on you'll go on to build manufactures
  • 00:42:40
    this is what my income is looking like
  • 00:42:41
    right now about 41 duckets a month
  • 00:42:43
    making some income from gold as well
  • 00:42:44
    let's see this gold mine here hasn't
  • 00:42:46
    depleted but autonomy is pretty high and
  • 00:42:48
    of course once I get this gold mine as
  • 00:42:50
    well I'm going to De it to 10 production
  • 00:42:51
    you should do the same and this is what
  • 00:42:53
    the income is looking like still only
  • 00:42:54
    level one advisers I'm going to upgrade
  • 00:42:56
    to level two pretty soon right here and
  • 00:42:58
    this is what my Army is looking like
  • 00:43:00
    2547 pretty good for about pretty good
  • 00:43:02
    for this point in the game this is my
  • 00:43:03
    Force limit for now and of course our
  • 00:43:05
    Naval Force limit is going to be massive
  • 00:43:07
    you should have a couple of light ships
  • 00:43:08
    protecting trade in pretty much all of
  • 00:43:10
    the trade nodes that you control as we
  • 00:43:11
    can see I got 10 in malaka six in the
  • 00:43:13
    malakas I'm building them up I'm going
  • 00:43:15
    to build some more for the Philippines
  • 00:43:16
    later on for sayam for Canton pretty
  • 00:43:18
    much everywhere that I have a merchant
  • 00:43:20
    that it's needed and of course you
  • 00:43:21
    should have a pretty sizable battlefied
  • 00:43:22
    over here with transports because you
  • 00:43:24
    are going to be using transports quite a
  • 00:43:25
    lot but the main battleships will most
  • 00:43:27
    likely be gys by this point in the game
  • 00:43:29
    build them up to and later on of course
  • 00:43:30
    make sure to build a flagship and build
  • 00:43:32
    up a couple of Heavies as well and that
  • 00:43:34
    is pretty much what your situation
  • 00:43:35
    should look like I have a couple of
  • 00:43:37
    vassals by now as well you should run
  • 00:43:39
    two or three vassals the entirety of the
  • 00:43:41
    game since you do get pretty nice
  • 00:43:42
    bonuses from them then once you can
  • 00:43:44
    Annex them get some new vassals it's
  • 00:43:46
    totally up to you whether you want to do
  • 00:43:47
    it or not but I do recommend it a little
  • 00:43:49
    bit and after this point you're going to
  • 00:43:50
    continue to expand in the same
  • 00:43:51
    directions we've already been expanding
  • 00:43:53
    in like I said you're going to focus on
  • 00:43:55
    taking care of these these guys right
  • 00:43:56
    here any Nations that are remaining in
  • 00:43:58
    these regions while also simultaneously
  • 00:44:00
    focusing on taking down everyone that's
  • 00:44:02
    located over in Indochina and then Burma
  • 00:44:04
    because that is how you get your claims
  • 00:44:05
    from your missions after you take care
  • 00:44:06
    of Indo China you get Perma claims on
  • 00:44:08
    Burma right here from this Mission here
  • 00:44:10
    invade the mainland so hit a couple of
  • 00:44:12
    guys here hit a couple of guys there hit
  • 00:44:14
    a couple of guys here and then go back
  • 00:44:15
    and if you want to you can push into
  • 00:44:17
    China or India all at the same time
  • 00:44:19
    after finishing colonizing this you
  • 00:44:20
    should work on colonizing this right
  • 00:44:22
    here and that's pretty much how your
  • 00:44:23
    campaign as Malaya should go later when
  • 00:44:25
    you encounter the Europeans you could
  • 00:44:27
    fight them as well if you want to it'll
  • 00:44:28
    make for a pretty fun campaign and
  • 00:44:30
    you'll be swimming in duckets for the
  • 00:44:31
    entirety of it in my opinion definitely
  • 00:44:33
    a secret and very powerful and
  • 00:44:35
    underrated Nation for a trade Naval
  • 00:44:37
    colonization and similar focused
  • 00:44:39
    playthrough this is what we took for our
  • 00:44:41
    first two idea groups exploration and
  • 00:44:42
    expansion obviously since we're
  • 00:44:44
    colonizing after this we're going to be
  • 00:44:45
    focusing on idea groups that maximize
  • 00:44:47
    our income even more while also
  • 00:44:49
    simultaneously buffing up our army for
  • 00:44:51
    your third idea group I do recommend
  • 00:44:52
    picking up trade ideas since they will
  • 00:44:54
    mesh insanely well with with our
  • 00:44:56
    national ideas that we already have and
  • 00:44:58
    then for your fourth idea group I
  • 00:44:59
    recommend picking up a m idea group such
  • 00:45:01
    as quality or quantity since they have
  • 00:45:03
    really really good policies with trade
  • 00:45:05
    ideas and they'll buff up your Army and
  • 00:45:07
    Navy too and after that for this idea
  • 00:45:09
    group right here I recommend picking up
  • 00:45:11
    another money-making one such as
  • 00:45:13
    economic for example and then for this
  • 00:45:15
    idea right here the sixth idea group I
  • 00:45:17
    recommend picking up whatever you didn't
  • 00:45:18
    take out of quantity or quality so
  • 00:45:21
    exploration expansion trade quantity or
  • 00:45:23
    quality economic quantity or quality the
  • 00:45:25
    policies that you get between all of
  • 00:45:27
    these six idea groups right here that I
  • 00:45:28
    mentioned are absolutely insane and by
  • 00:45:30
    the end of your campaign you will have
  • 00:45:32
    insane income like you've never had
  • 00:45:33
    before in eu4 this is what we took for
  • 00:45:35
    our first four government reforms like I
  • 00:45:37
    said for tier 2 you could use enforce
  • 00:45:39
    Trader privileges as well as strengthen
  • 00:45:41
    Noble privileges for tier three it's
  • 00:45:42
    this one or this one there for tier five
  • 00:45:44
    you do have some Naval related ones so
  • 00:45:46
    you could pick up Naval professionalism
  • 00:45:48
    if you want to if you don't want to I
  • 00:45:50
    recommend one of these three right here
  • 00:45:51
    for tier six I recommend Royal Decree
  • 00:45:53
    for tier seven if you end up picking up
  • 00:45:55
    Court ideas for for some reason you
  • 00:45:56
    could go with superiority of the state
  • 00:45:58
    aside from that go otherwise go with
  • 00:45:59
    meritocratic rment for tier eight if
  • 00:46:01
    you're still colonizing especially in
  • 00:46:02
    the new world it definitely go with
  • 00:46:04
    exploitation of the new world if not you
  • 00:46:06
    should empower the burgers or embrace
  • 00:46:07
    the economic theory or do the
  • 00:46:09
    mercantilistic approach then for tier 9
  • 00:46:11
    go with the six books of the Republic or
  • 00:46:12
    the social contract if you're blobbing
  • 00:46:14
    out a whole lot and then for tier 10 and
  • 00:46:16
    tier 11 all of them are really good take
  • 00:46:17
    whichever one you want at that point in
  • 00:46:19
    the game you won't make a mistake with
  • 00:46:20
    either one of them and like I said by
  • 00:46:22
    the time the age of reformation comes
  • 00:46:23
    around your realm should look a little
  • 00:46:25
    something like this if you're not that
  • 00:46:26
    confident in your abilities or if you're
  • 00:46:27
    not sure if your game is going to go
