V8fan12, don't take it seriously
This may be good advice in general when dealing with Iwanow...
So, what are your longterm goals for Castile? Are you focusing on land or are you planning to go mainly colonial?

Both of them cannot beat you at once, if they are AI. And both are weaker than you. You should be able to beat both at once, aspecialy owning all that land in africa...
why... they are land locked and provide you about zero help and they would only drag you into wars.
If they are the emperor drag them into useless wars and then attack your HRE target.
Emperor Bohemia can protect them from France, which is one of the two countries Spain ever has to care about
This was changed in 5.2b? I'm pretty sure in 5.1 you needed NF.
fyi for everyone don't try to get rid of the reformation in your country by changing religion and then trying to force convert back to catholic if your country is a big as mine.
@ytg, yes that's the plan.
@Stefanos, well in a 10 hour game session I can get trough ~40 years. I'm more used to civ's turn based gameplay so I pause ALOT.

once again: you definitely don't need NF to build embassy. you never needed it. requirements are gov.tech 6 and a non-core province that borders a foreign province.
Then it must have been a bug as I checked it few times on my yesterdays session and I couldn't build it. Today when I fired up the game I was able to build it. I was under the impression they fixed the bug of needing to reload the game after your embassy province cores to be able to build a new one... Live and learn.
reloading the game when something does not work always remains to be a standard procedure in EU3 indeed...

It's still early but we're getting there...
I'm dirt poor (seriously, my richest provinces when not counting the capital income bonus are Chang Rai and Sukhothai, which are base tax 3 wool/grain), have the worst infamy reduction I've ever had (my king has DIP 1 for some reason), but once these pagans in my north convert (and hopefully I'll get to annex Taungu before it converts its pagans) it'll be better My vassals are, chronologically, Taungu, Manipur, Ayutthaya Lan Xang, Luang Prabang and Lan Na. The latter inherited an OPM Ayutthaya in 1400, and became my main threat, now it's Bihar. Khmer and Pegu have been my allies for a while, recently I even got an offer from Ming, Champa keeps allying me just to betray me every second war, and I just got a lucky PU with Pegu. Their army is 9k right now, my forcelimit is 12... Inflation, I'm coming!
Oh, and I have cores on both the Ming provinces I border. The first one will expire in '51. Any suggestions, maybe declare pointless wars and drag Ming in to drive their WE up, make them lose the mandate and collapse?

Hey look at this TO Prussia. TO did all the work right after the Reformation formed Prussia but now they are falling apart. Tempted to fabricate claims and forcibly stabilize them.
The Timurids managed to ruin my WC by forming the Mughals. Now I need some changes if I am going to succeed.

Well, my main goals would be to get QFTNW and colonise a bit. Other goals will be to form Spain (I've played further and annexed 2 of Aragon's provinces, waiting for truce to end so that I can DOW & take Barcelona) and defeat Portugal before they get too strong.
my glorious Hungarian empire as to 1670 on hard difficulty:
being in between poland-lit austria and the ottomans was quite a challenge, at first i allied with austria and took every chance i had to expand until they decided to backstab me and it took me alot of wars to finally get rid of them
map of the world:
Hungary and its vassals:
thing to note: huge ottomans taking chunks of an almost unified china before breaking, france divided between my loyal ally castille and burgundy, scandinivia almost formed twice once with sweden the other with norway
