To ally with.

I decided to give them another shot, cause I haven't allied with them in years. They keep half their forces on the island, while we are fighting France. I remember why I never ally with England.

And now it's even worse since once they start colonizing, they send half their army over there too, just to die from attrition.

England and Poland are the two worst AI's to ally, and should only be done when desperate for alliances and coalition blocking.

England because of the crappy Naval management of the AI, and Poland just seems to fail in every war consistently after the TO. You quite commonly hear of the Polish AI sucking when helping in a war.

There needs to be some threat system. If an enemy is too expansive, they give threat so the neighbors build up. If there is a peace treaty, then that means peace will last a while so they disarm a bit. Similar with balancing armiea in colonies. Some elements of HOI4 could be used for EU4.

I had a game where they called me into a war against Ottoman and France, I was playing Austria. They sat on their island while I got my ass kicked ( I did 81% of the war contribution) before I got a lucky white peace. The war drained my manpower and fucked me over in the League wars though. Never again...

Try playing Portugal and starting out allied to them. Pretty much you have to dump them off day one because they are such a liability. At some point you will get called into a war against france, and with the AI better at getting access now (as well as conditional access) you can't just hide behind the castile wall from their early game doomstacks.

Unless I'm playing england, they always find a way to annoy me or make me want to kill them. I can be playing Luba and somehow they will do something that ticks me off.

It's the naval AI in general that's a bit inept, when a war involves shipping their troops across water.

Other colonisers are also effected by this. I've seen the likes of France keeping 60-70k large stacks overseas in the early game.

Only time I'd ally with them is if I'm a Dutch minor under Burgundy and I need support for independence. Or Sweden. Even then it's mostly for naval support.

Current game they were Defender of the Catholic faith and got called into a war against me and Russia, they transported 53k troops to Kola (arctic region). When the war was over they sat there for a decade, eating attration, then when they were called again against me they walked down from Kola to South Africa (it was the only land connected possession on the "mainland").

My other game they repeatedly left their island completely undefended when fighting colonial wars.

Well, I made peace with France, part of it was breaking my alliance with England and Castile. After that, France was willing to be friendly with me, and make an alliance with me. I would say every thing worked out for the best. My Holland game is back on track.

It's been established for a while now how bad england is as an ally, hell in general the usual colonial powers are awful once they star colonising, it's just england is a bad ally all round.

My second ever game of eu4 ended prematurely because I thought me ( Portugal ) and England could easily take France together. Then I was left to face the French doomstacks alone. Honestly it's always better for them to be your enemies. This will help you get actuall allies like France
