I started a new game as USA and I cannot fire Manifest Destiny, I'm playing the new expansion, researching romanticism first and it says Texas is required, and it's there, mexico has not taken over yet. Is this a bug?? Am I doing something wrong?
I've played a few scenarios and even when I researched it and mexico did not own Austin it was not able to fire. Are there certain provinces I need to have for it to fire?
0. Start teching Ideological Thought.
1. Alliance with TEX, full influence into TEX until they are in my SOI.
2. Place colonies in and around Idaho, try to tie up the Brits in Columbia.
3. Mobilize, move soldiers to the border with TEX and wait till Mexico occupies a province to intervene.
4. Beat Mexicans in open battle, have them sign peace for status quo. Texas joins the union.
5. Research Medicine, demobilize. NF Soldiers in the north.
6. Research Romanticism, pick Manifest Destiny before the truce with Mexicans ends.
7. Attack them, add states you're sieging as wargoals.
8. Leave one state out of it (to not cross 100% warscore total).
9. Sign peace. Repeat 5 years later for the last state. Then sphere Mexico so they cause no more trouble.
I forgot to mention: Build some extra Dragoons or Hussars with soldiers you NF-ed in the north, so they join and "lead" your mobilisation soldiers into faster occupations.
