      aaaaanyway, after having a lot of fun playing with command codes, I'm trying to get comfortable with the *actual* game again, which sadly means no more instant colonies wherever I want. I am not very patient about this.

      To mitigate the shock, I started with a custom Japan that already has most of the home islands, skipping the tedious first few decades of unification. Unexpected consequence: now I'm strong enough on-paper to rival Ming, but without enough combat experience to actually fight them

          For now, the main goal of any alliances is to intimidate China...not exactly sure what the plan will be when I'm face to face with the Europeans

          In previous no-cheat games I focused way too much on Manchuria/Siberia and North America, hoping to apply that energy south and west instead:https://twitter.com/380kmh/status/929765123396390912 …

          Not familiar with the game; what's wrong with holding mainland territory?

          plus the more territory you try to annex, the further behind you fall in technology and development

          Huh. But holding far-off territory/colonies is fine?

          once you clear a critical mass of colonies in an area, they turn into a subject nation and you're no longer responsible for their development--island territories have same penalty as land ones but many are more lucrative and all are much easier to defend

          also, there are fewer island territories than mainland ones, so it's harder to get in over your head

          Why steer to cape? Is this a good point to collect?

          much easier to control the cape than to get tied up in the Middle East

          there are two parts to the strategy: - concentrate enough trade in Malacca for the Global Trade institution to spawn there - prevent all that wealth from funneling directly to the Mamluks and Europeans, steering it instead to focal points that I control (of which SA is easiest)

          Im not a trade expert but read that you can make zanzibar a sort of end node and collect everything there. Googled it:https://www.reddit.com/r/eu4/comments/345dmp/virtual_end_trade_nodes/ …

          generally speaking whoever shows up and starts setting up colonies is just giving Japan some candy to snap up while they fume from a continent away w inferior navy
