Easy WC/1-Faith, Revoke Privilegia in 1530 (Updated)
By Siu-King**
This guide gives you a strategy to do Revoke Privilegia before 1550, even earlier, as early as 1520 is possible if you rush for it. After that, 1-tag World Conquest or One-Faith is easy as hell.

Achievements: World Conquest, One-Faith, Kaiser Not In the Name, the Uncommonwealth....etc
It doesn't work in 1.16. you can revert to older version like 1.15 on Steam properties & you CAN get Achievements in 1.15

Start
Start as Lithuania, as they are one of the most OP & suitable nation for this strategy.

Royal Marriage with Poland!!

Then just blob yourself as hard as you can into Russian lands!
PU Poland
Then, you need to Force a PU on Poland, It shouldn't be difficult at all, especially if you have allies to help.

Bohemia & Brandenburg should be your long term allies since the beginning, since they are an elector as well.



Become Emperor
Assume you done the previous 2 steps:
Blob into Russian lands (Novgorod, Muscovy), Forced PU on Poland

Now you need to have a province adjecent to the HRE, and become Emperor yourself!
It shouldn't be difficult if you have Influence Idea (since you needed it for vassal annex)

And Bohemia & Brandenburg will vote for you if they like you enough.

Ideas at this Point
What I did is:
1) Religious Idea
2) Influence Idea
3) Diplomatic Idea


Explanation:

Basically I got Deus Vult as soon as possible because with that, you can declare war on literally everyone around you (Muscovy, Golden ♥♥♥♥♥, Crimea, Novgorod) without having to fibricate on everything;
You can take any province you like, even without claim; or even force vassalize without paying extra diplo cost.
And, you have quite a lot of orthodox land to convert as well.

Then I take Influence for diplo annex obviously; since you still need to get to admin tech 10 ASAP, and you have quite a bit to core.

But you can take Influence then religious as well, it wont hurt.

Lastly, I take diplo because you need an extra diplomat, diplo relation & most importantly, diplo rep as well.

People keep asking how to make people like you, pass reforms & vote for you; on top of relation & alliance, diplo rep is a HUGE boost. And apparently you can't ally everyone inside HRE.
The Magic to Pass Reforms
Now you should be Emperor!
Time for some Imperial Authority to pass reforms!

If you have blobbed enough, you should nearly have 70-90 provinces under your hands now, so lets start adding province!!






We Unite!
But hey, 70-90 provinces can only get you at most 2 reforms!
What should you do?

FORM COMMONWEALTH!
You will instantly inherit Poland and ALL your provinces will be removed from the HRE

The clicking begins again for another 100+ provinces.





Final Trick: Move Your Ass
Now you added all the provinces as Commonwealth,
but hey, it's still not enough for Revoke Privilegia...

Last piece of magic:
You suddenly realize, despite Polish/Lithuania being my primary culture...something's wrong...
In my true heart, I'm Russian!!

So you move your capital to the most Russian place of all - Moskva.



Now I should dump those filthy Polish infidels, and shift my culture to Russian!

3rd Clicking Game
If I'm a big ass Russian, then I should form Russia!

And, all your provinces, are, again, removed from HRE all over again.
Now the clicking begins again.





PS: ENACT WESTERN FOCUS SINCE YOU SHOULD HAVE DANZIG

Revoke Privilegia my B**ches
Time to Press the Magic button eh?








Then I forced all them filthy heretics back to the True Faith.

Let the WC Begins
With a bit of strategic vassal blocking, you can abuse Overseas coring discount to the maximum.

Let the Deus Vult WC begins! Nobody on earth can ever dare form a coalition against the flames of revolution!



Colourful Europe
I am loving this picture, so colourful, so beautiful.


WC Done in 1760


The Final Magic Button.




One True Faith!

The Moment of Satisfaction
That moment of satisfaction of conquering the entire world and have burned all the heretics and wiped out all accursed infidels. It's awesome.

Does this still work if you revert to 1.15?
DrTurtles1313 21 Apr, 2017 @ 2:09pm 
Are any of the DLCs needed for this?
Uhlan 13 Apr, 2017 @ 2:28am 
is their any possibility to get this with poland as well? I tried it but elective monarchy ruined it early on... any way to avoid this elective shit with this bad events dropping every year?
Seynethic 23 Mar, 2017 @ 11:00am 
what exactly is the problem with it being no longer able to do in 1.16 and even newer patches?
Seb 9 Mar, 2017 @ 3:36am 
Alright fair enough, let's leave that dead then :)

Thanks again

I can't find the original author.

This is plain genious.

However: One person to another (OP): It's not about witch-hunting but common courtesy. If something inspired you and/or laid the groundworks for something people will admire YOU for, it's common courtesy to give referrals.

It's not very time consuming to just add a one liner with the link and "inspired by this" or "with content from (link)" or whatever.

Do you get where I'm coming from? Not trying to discredit you or bash or anything at all. Just calmly (hopefully) putting things into perspective :)

Anyways. Thanks for uploading/writing all this!
