Do you play a religiously tolerant country in this game?

I shall suffer no heretic to live!

Catholicism + Divine Supremacy + Counter-Reformation + Conventicle Act = Heathens? What heathens?

 

[Nyrael]

Heretics? Heathens? Wipe them out. All of them.

I love turning as much of the map my religion's color as possible - which is usually Catholic Yellow, although I once enjoyed turning as much of Asia Shinto as I could. I do this to the extent of taking Unam Sanctam and using the Cleansing of Heresy CB on anyone who goes Protestant or Reformed during the Reformation - provided I can defeat them. I even once bled myself white reverting Sweden to the True Faith - although I'd been assigned a mission to do so.

It just amuses me so much, in addition to being an efficient way to run a country.

You speak my language... I managed to wipe out Orthodoxy that way and, in the end, Protestants and Reformed didn't have more than five provicnes combined.
It was also a politically good move: it allowed me to Balkanize entire Europe so that only me and Britain mattered

I always get rid of as much Christianity as possible in Europe. That's what I love when playing pagans

Orthodox? What is this "Orthodox" you speak of?

Okay I haven't done nearly as well as you - there are two Orthodox countries left and three other Orthodox provinces that haven't been converted yet - I'll have to look into crushing Montenegro and Trebizond soon. I also had a particularly rough Reformation - almost every country in the Holy Roman Empire except Bavaria, Brandenburg, Pommerania, and my own Teutonic Order flipped to Protestant or even Reformed. Aachen embraced Heresy twice (Charlemagne would be rolling in his grave), once I reverted them, the other time Bavaria enforced religious unity. I personally forced Bohemia, Switzerland, Burgundy, Utrecht/Holland, Gelre, Munster, The Palatinate, Cologne, Trier, Frankfurt, Mainz, Saxe-Lauenberg, Mecklenburg, Breda, Anhalt, Wurzburg, Liege, and Meissen to flip back, and probably at least one other minor I forgot. Liege obviously turned away from the face of God, again, to my chagrin, so they shall receive neither Holy Communion nor Mercy from me. Thuringia and Silesia are my vassals so I haven't ended their vassalization and forced them to recant although I think I'll have to. I held off on hurting The Hansa because until they recently flipped to an Administrative Republic I was in their trade league with two dozen trade stations giving me various nice things. Outside the HRE I forced England, Poland, Ukraine, and Lithuania to recant, as well as the aforementioned war with Sweden that reduced my +55k stockpile of bodies to less than 8k.

As you can see, getting rid of The Taint entirely is going to be a difficult job. I imagine I'll need at least 110 regiments (and my quality slider is almost maxed out) to tackle Austria on its own.

I try to go Protestant and play a tolerant game, unless converting would destroy my entire country's stability.

The reformation is always a bit wimpy. England never converts as well, which really annoys my Anglican sensibilities .

The reformation hit London first in my most recent game, and they painted almost all of Great Britain Protestant-blue!

My most recent game England and the entire isles went Reformist. Meanwhile France went Protistant along with my Germany, most of the world east of Hamburg is still Catholic though.

Also Bar is Orthodox, not sure how that happened or how Bar is still alive but it is.

 

[Lord Dakier]

Well as Byzantium the only Orthodox countries left for me are a broken Serbia, Georgia and Cyprus. I guess faith wars aren't my speciality!

 

[Mongoose87]

I modified my sliders so that going Innovative adds some tolerance. I still end up using the counter reformation to convert everyone, though.

I stand corrected .
