Well done. Too bad you couldn't take more out of the Ming, but what can you do!
Are you going to try and split them in half? Just wondering.

Yes, very good, now repeat after me 'Nobody likes a smug git'
Nobody likes a smug git.
Can I go out and play now sir?
Must be really terrible, if that's coming from someone who fought continent-wide rebellions.
I'm glad to have caught on of your AAR's in progress, rather then the usual ashes of your foes spread over a hundred some pages I usually find when I run into one of your AARs.
I've tried several times to play a WC game with England and always make some sort of death spiral mistake, so this is rather educational.

Why don't you try to beat the current WC speed record with going over the BB limit?the record is like 1500 someting...
Is it still called Grace Road?
The thing to remember with your current campaign targets is that when dealing with Ming, the Merciless is the best policy.

The game really wants to put you against Bohemia Besides that, business as usual: pounding heathens with Holy war CB and superior tech army I'm also curious how are you going to deal with Ming ( i would take their western provinces first to isolate the hordes, but going against the coastal provinces might be better in the long run )
BTW and as the day of warring Japan is apparently coming soon enough ( maybe 3/4 updates in the future, especially if they continue pounding on Brunei ? ), I am preparing popcorns to see how are you going to deal with all of the shogunate mess. In fact that is probably the most educational moment left in this AAR ...

This made me giggle in bed for a good 15 minutes. And you claimed the writing wasn't going to be good.
Only 16 provinces off Ming. I was hoping for a couple more.
A DIP 9 ruler and only 1 Boundary dispute in 5 years. Perhaps the taking of cores speeds up the appearance of more. Aragon, Milan and Bohemia beckon in the west. That's assuming you're planning to take as much of Ming as quickly as possible. I'm certain you're heading for land 22 to get some decent cavalry. That may be why you're shying away from Hindustan and the western powers. You're not making any move soon against Khorasan, so you may as well let it play out.

You seem to be moving forward nice and easy, cutting thru pretty much anyone that looks at you funny. Also a joy to see a WC campaign.
Oh , this is good , but I'm sure there are a lot of unshown rebels ... hopefully they are much easier to dispatch as a western european power!
Well, 16 infamy is a lot. You decrease your papal influence and so your number of cardinals with too much infamy. And this means less infamy reduction.
Besides, he was probably very close to zero infamy at the time of peace.
17 provinces were taken in the first peace deal with Hindustan. Unless a cardinal dies and another country has a better chance of a cardinal and gets that replacement, there's no reduction in BB burn. Brunei may recover its home island from the japanese and may take the fight to japan's home islands. If left alone for the time being.
Just finished reading all your EU3 AAR's. I'm Impressed! This is some epic stuff you're pulling off. Can't wait for more.
BTW in one of them you were complaining about pirates and said that's why you usually play Russian games. Do you think you will ever do an ARR based as one of them? Maybe something like OPM Yaroslavl and go for WD?

Nice going so far - I'll definitely be keeping up with this AAR!
Going back to the start of the AAR, what was the reason for hiring the ambassador advisers? (think the screenshots showed you picked one right at the start and a 5 or 6 star one not long after that)

Ming was a walk on the park I take you'll be taking the higher value provinces first while Ming is big-ish for war score efficiency reasons?

Was the war with Ming really that uneventful? (could you post relative land techs and unit stats?)
Is there any chance of Ming getting a significant unit upgrade like Hindustan did before you finish tearing them apart?
