Oh, NO...not again

[unmerged(9254)]

Yes. I'm sorry...it's me again . Very briefly:

1. Could someone give me the link to the thread explaining the concept, advantages and disadvantages of turbo-annex?

2. How may I break a military alliance of third parties, i.e. someone not allied with me? I'm tired to wait for my vassals being annexed because the belong to another alliance.

3. Are the BB points in EU2 the same as EU1? I couldn't find such an information at its own forum.

Thanx for your patience.

For 3 - no they are not the same.

U can't. Well, u can, but not like it guarantees success.
U can edit the files, but that's cheating.

1. That is what the search button is for.
2. DoW the Alliance and hope your Vassal does not join in.
3. The FAQ forum has details about BB. Why are you still playing EU1?

DOWing them is the same thing as DOWing your vassal; generally not a good idea. Try to get them to DOW you, while maintaining good relaitons with your vassal. Then your vassal will probably dishonor the alliance when they DOW you.

In case you don't have time to search, or if there is a computer-illiterate newbie reading this

These are the two last threads discussing Turbo annexing in an explanatory way.

The concept is to get as many provinces as possible, the advantage is that you get all provinces you control, even if warscore for them would be outrageous (300%+) and the disadvantage is that you get a helluva lot of BBs. (Only an issue if playing at very hard, and only briefly)

Well, it can be an issue. I played lately as Muscovy and turboannexed Golden Horde ( I had all shields on those provinces - editted) still, I agined 48 BB-points! I would get none if I just asked for peace

That is annoying, since you basically can't touch them while they are disintegrating, for fear of government collapse in mid-war.

With care, and letting them keep two or three provinces at all time, clearing them from rebels for them when such appears, it can be managed though.

Else nations disintegrating are to be left alone and all one can do is hope for a defection or two..

Hmm.. 48/3 = 16, thats a big horde you had there..

Is it counted that way? Well, it was quite right in the beginning, crimea nor kazan had formed (only ukraine). I got all but 1 province which was controlled by rebels. That makes exactly 16 provinces
