30 years war as Reformed

[Otto I. HRE]

So since the 30 years war events are and wars about which becomes the official religion, catholic or protestant, what happens if you play as reformed? Can you make that the dominant religion, or should you just aim for the Peace of Westphalia instead?

Hate to bump my own thread but just in case someone who knows wasn't on during the weekend

You get screwed, so yeah, your only option is to aim for the Peace of Westphalia.

Yep, the only option that benefits you as Reformed is the Peace of Westphalia. The other options all favor either Catholics or Protestants and ignore all other branches.

Okay thanks for your answers, better off leaving this empire of heretics then!

Thats the real option I think, if you want to stay reformed.

Don't just leave. Break Austria's toy while you're at it.

You better believe it, Brandenburg with the war focus from reformed does what it wants

Best option is to stay catholic, get the emperorship, and either pass Erbkaisertum before the religious leagues start, or join the catholic league, crush the protestants then force a white peace.
