Following are all "possible" major exploits i know
Say yes or no.....or what you are using...

1) Turboannex
2) Map buying
3) loans to AI
4) permanent looting
5) sneaking colonist
6) alliance hopping (war taxes)
7) changing religion
8) buying masses of manufactories
9) Stealing sieges
10) breaking truth
11) intented bankrupts

In my games if WC or not i m using only map buying ---> shame on me ........:D
On the other hand it has its price......

2 and 7. On the other hand, I usually change to either protestant or CRC depending upon nation. What is this 'changing religion' as exploit all about?

Prolly the one where people alternate between catholic and CRC every 2 years.

Ah, ok, multiple (more than 2) religion changes , that I can understand would be an exploit...

Especially Catholic/CRC since it doesn't cost anything to change. (1 BB?)

Nothing at all, that's just it ...

And then there's the one where you play a pagan country and let yourself lose a war but refuse all peace offers until they do what you really wanted all along and insist that you change religion ..:rolleyes: ... which is not particularly plausible historically ... ;)

Oh, that's what Wends of Mecklenburg did in 1146 (more or less, they converted just to be left in opeace by teh Saxons. Worked.)

If yyou can't beat'em, join'em.

I think it's the only sensible tactic playing a Native American country if you want to survive.

Didn't know that! From what, to what, did they convert? Pagan to Christian?
