Good player of EU3? Can you turn an OPM into a powerhouse? Do you enjoy making AARs? Do you laugh in the face of getting annxed and is "bankruptcy for religion chance" your middle name? Then look no further. Over on the general EU3 forum, there's been two AWESOME ideas for AARs that I'd like to highlight in the hopes, that someone will give it a go.
Twice-Blessed
Best discipline & morale troops
Absolute strongest possible soldiers in the game?
There is a lot of theorycrafting in this thread. Have a look for the possible strongest troops obtainable.
Twice-Blessed
<snip>
1 - Start as Byzantium (True heir to the Roman Empire - check)
2 - Go Catholic
3 - Become the Emperor (Legacy of Charlemagne, and the Western Empire - check)
4 - Renovatio Imperii (HRE option greyed out, as it's 'mission' is complete)
5 - Change government type from empire to Enlightened despotism (- 2 stab)
6 - Change government type to absolute monarchy (- 4 stab)
7 - Change government to despotic monarchy (- 4 stab)
8 - Change government type to theocracy (- 4 stab)
9 - Cause the downfall of the Papacy, and become the Pope ('Holy' - half a check)
10 - Move the capital to Rome, conquering it, if necessary (Roman - check)
11 - Form the KoG! ('Holy' - check is absolute; Papacy - greyed out, as it does not need to be controlled any more )
This path would be even more epic then the last one! You are twice-fold holy, as the papacy and Kingdom of God, totally Roman, as Byzantine and having the capital in the Eternal City and a double Emperor - uniting the generally hereditary Eastern Empire and the generally elective Western one.
So you can harness the power of both political entities and become the HRE squared!!!
