Problem is not realy to conquer the provinces.
You need to convert them, you can get 2 more missionaries easy from ottos.

Can you post a religous screen where we see how many provines you still need to convert?

You can get a count of Sunni and Shia provinces in the ledger. You must convert ALL of those to Ibadi in order to get the achievement.
I don't know how many and how strong your missionaries are, but it looks tough.

Just checked, i finished my 3rd way just a week ago (Oman into Persia):

1712, i had this:

index.png


around 400 should work, 500 would be rly hard, more near impossible. I finished the Run 1786, you can get two more missionaries from Jerusalem and Medina i think.
And remember there are some Sunni provinces in Africa you need to colonise... cause they are sunni and uncolonized.

Sorry I am on mobile now, but there are around 300 Sunni provinces, and less than 100 Shia so even with four missionaries it is doable, but I should get another one from taking medina and mecca for on Ottomans. Most provinces take less than a year to convert.

Clerical Islamic nation's can pick one of three options ever so many years. One of which for 50 military power gives claims on all bordering provinces of heretic or heathen nation's which is very useful in the early game.

I was being serious. No laughs. Starting as a Berber nation from the desert is a BIG challenge, Mr. Earl Konrad II von EU4land.

Of course it is a BIG challenge traversing all of that sand, be it by foot or by horse. Lord help if you are trying to move artillery as well. As father used to say, "back in my day attietion was uncapped and we all would die when entering or exiting desert provinces. You kids don't know the meaning of manpower drain."

Yes, thank you. I am relatively certain this government is locked to Muslim nation's?

Yes, that is correct. I miss that government not being religion specific. The good 'ol days of Orthodoxy Feudal Theocracy.

Could we please know your opinion about Emperor DLC? Do you find it disappointing? I do hate the HRE/Catholicism changes. Really. Do you think they will fix it in the next DLC/patch?

Emperor? I think it was and still is a mess. Bugs aside, the new mechanics lack polish (Curia Controller is still largely left to RNG, as is the Council of Trent). HRE is still a bad mini-game where you either go all-in on trying to min-max it or just ignore it, with most of its systems not being properly explained in-game and necessitating the player to make plenty of research before trying to become HRE Emperor or pass reforms.

What I like? Well, Theocratic reforms are really, really cool but they also go against their initial design (which was to give them few reform tiers so they would become largely obsolete by mid-game, forcing the player to reform into a monarchy). Instead, now it is a good idea to remain a Theocracy if you are going up against nations that aren't the same faith as you.

Most of the new mission trees are rather cool but some (looking at you Austria and Hamburg) are needlessly complicated and counterintuitive. And missions are still in their infancy (what I mean by that is that we still have difficult missions giving crappy rewards and easy missions giving great rewards, or missions that require you to go out of your way in order to gain basically nothing. And let's not forget how some trees are very generous while others are the opposite of generous).

All in all It could have been great but as it stands it is a mess. I have no hope of it being fixed in the future for the simple reason that EU IV development doesn't seem to be focused on fixing issues, no. Instead what we get is an ever increasing list of issues -- even with the patch that was supposed to fix a whole lot of them (which it did, and in the process introduced a slew of new blatant issues, ironically).
