As emperors and major power, the Austrian ai fails at everything.

They fail to use their CB on Bohemia, Hungary

They ally silly opm when they are the emperor of the HRE.

They lose the emperor position and rarely ever regain it

They engage in stupid wars that doesn't benefit them and lose out in major wars.

They rarely ally Spain.

They leave their core regions completely abandoned and you could march straight to wien. Seriously there is nothing stopping you from marching from Paris to wien other than occasional Austrian armies

They tend to lose pathetically to France and get immediately attacked by ottomans and after that they are a dead horse for the rest of the game.


They don't do anything against the reformation and sit with 0 imperial authority

It is annoying, they have so much potential and power and they waste it pathetically.

What they should do
1) ally Spain. Seriously it is such a powerful combination.
2) refuse stupid alliances from Salzburg
3) engage in wars carefully
4) defeat protestants
5) DEFEND WIEN

I wish the devs took another look @ the burgundy event because in my opinion it completely screws over the balance of western europe now
