Ulm is back! He is ready to take on Europa Univeralis IV or at least he thinks he is.

I have been waiting for quite a while to be ready to do a EU4 AAR, but I hadn't built up enough confidence until now to actually do it.

I am playing the game on the latest patch with Conquest of Paradise DLC. I intend - like last time - to update the game (and with new DLCs) as they happen. This might change the nature of the progress, but at least it will be interesting.

The purpose of this AAR is not to world conquest ridiculously or anything else. It's mainly for fun. And to be completely ahistorical.

(Yes, I have deliberately chosen the old title again, because I liked it.)

Reactions:
Another Ulm AAR? Count me in! I'm curious to see whether your old "spies and vassal" strategy will be used and if not, what will be used.

The title could have used some "Resurrection" or "Revenge of the" flavoring, IMO.
 
Chapter 2: Initialise

Haha, brilliant! I love that "alliances are meant to be broken" logic!
 
Chapter 3: Back to the Ansbach

And we already know who will win best AAR of 2014

I am already hearing complaints about my claim that people from Frankfurt wear funny hats. Maybe they will protest such a decision.
 
You went to all this trouble to create a claim, why not use it and conquer them outright?

Because of the Empire. Austria will no doubt demand the territory as unlawful territory and that will get me unpopular amongst my neighbours and everyone in the empire. Subjugation is the safe bet. Once I am strong enough (or run out of diplomatic relations), I will begin annexing provinces instead. Moreover, I plan on touching on this subject in the next chapter.
 
Woohoo, a glorious remake! And this time, I get to follow from the beginning!
