No wonder the 'A Fine Goosestep" achievement is one of the hardest; Prussia never forms
Edit: Got the achievement mixed up with "The Pheasants Strut". No wonder I got confused because they both involve Prussia (AFG is for 135% discipline iirc, TFS is having Prussia as a subject while you are Nepal).
i've been having fun theorycrafting a maximally vicious Nepal for fun at work. Current thought is start as Kham, form Tibet, become Theocracy, form Nepal as a Vaj Theocracy. I hate playing as buddhist in the past, maybe with stacking missionaries and monuments the karma isn't annoying anymore.
Vaj Buddhism = +5% moral +5% disc
Sohei Monks gov reform= 5% disc 5% combat ability
Combat heresy gov reform= 10% morale
External Mission = 10% manpower recovery
One State Under God = 30% warscore versus other nations.
Nepal= 10% manpower recovery, +25 % land limit, 15% manpower, 0.5 tradition, 10% morale, 10% infantry combat ability, +1 siege, 5% disc
and thats before fiddling around with ideas.
It might be easier to just play normal hindu nepalese kingdom, but the new rajput mechanics stink compared to the pre-estate rework of them, seems hard to get htem to be a high % of your troops. Even tanking your crownland it'd be hard to get >35% rajputs.
Reading the actual requirements for the achievement looks like you need to start as gorka, so you'd have to go gorka--> tibet --> nepal, which is kind of annoying.
