I have been playing Europe 4 for a long time and when I first started playing I was glad that the Mamluks have some kind of mechanics with the Circassians. I am a Circassian and have heard about the Circassian dynasty in Egypt. By the way, at present, most of the Circassians live in Turkey after the Russian Empire staged a genocide

Steadyzz

2y↑6

There were 2 Mamluk dynasties in Egypt. Mamluk literally means “mostly Kipchak Turks that were enslaved by Abbasid Caliphs to be used as soldiers”. They took over in the Ghaznavids, Delhi Sultanate and the Khwarezmian empire. The Circassians overthrew the Egyptian Turkic Mamluks and placed themselves on the throne

Production efficency doesn't increase goods produced so it doesn't make sense to build them based on what trade good a province has. Rather just look at the number in the macrobuilder and pick the highest. Seeing you pass on that 0,41 workshop really hurt.

If you want really cursed Mamluk run, try going Mamluk into Jerusalem into Israel into Byzantine emprie into Roman Empire.

Joseph Cola

2y↑123

As a general word of advice: The Mamluks are in a great position to form Rum, which has the (excellent) Ottoman government reform, great ideas, a great mission tree, and Jannisaries. You need to shift to Turkish culture first, however. Which means that you can't upgrade your government to an Empire until you do so, because then you can't become Turkish anymore.

Wiedźmin

@Brandon Lyon Because forming Rum as mamluks is easy af

Cenk Bahar

@Brandon Lyon mamluks had a turkish dynasty so it could have been the turkish greatpower if they conquered more turkish lands

Enes Duraku

@jarjab2games Rum ideas vastly Outshine the Mamluk (mamulk's are a bit better on trade but nothing major)

By forming Rum as mamluks you literally become Ottoman 2.0 without the Anatolia tech group which is way weaker than the muslim tech group in the late game . You have access to Ottoman Government type which is by far one of the best types if you are trying to fish Godlike heirs for the throne. As long as you got prestige to disinherit the shitty rolls you get.
And on top of that you have access to one of the most lucrative trade nodes in game coupled with easy access to India and their goods. Sure you give up really good trade Ideas that the mamluks have BUT you get access to so much more by going RUM.

Ofcourse if you are trying to role play as a merchant plutocratic state for shits and giggles then i understand why would someone not want to reform RUM but in case of min-maxing Mamluks>RUM is the way.

Vinícius Yugulis

@Aluminium Knight by the time you form it as Karaman you'd just be in the position the Ottomans were at the start of the game

Aluminium Knight

@Vinícius Yugulis then form Rum as karaman or something, like a man

The hardest thing is definitely the start, had to restart 3 times to finally get byzantiums cores back, but when i finally beat the ottomans the future wars war so much easier and more fun. Thank you for the guide.

I recommend anexing Medina through the missions after you start the war with the Ottomans. This way bot will have more troops that he is not going to delete.

Can't wait to see the mamluks becoming the emperor of the HRE in 4 years when you finally get to M!

Nviz

A to Z idea for the Mamluks eventually. SInce the Nile is so important for any egyptian civilization, how about conquer at least on province of each of the most important rivers in the world. Yellow, Amazon, Yangtze, Mississippi, Rhine, Danube, Mekong, Ganges, maybe the Niger too. To make it even more thematic maybe you can only expand in a line like a river lol.

Doodle Noodle

2y↑7

My favorite strategies with mamluks is pushing west by vassalizing Fezzan, feeding Saharan minor to Fezzan, attack Tlemcen and trying to rush to Granada, so that Spain never reform. After that you could island hoping and colonize the new world and get colonization institution.

4ester

@Doodle Noodle just occupy their mainland wait some time til their colonials become disloyal, its way easy to fight nation with colonies rather then without them

Doodle Noodle

@Vinícius Yugulis might be, most of the times, I just gave Spain to granada. My goal is just stopping Spain and Portugal to colonize half of America because fighting colonial empire Stretch across the ocean isn't really fun for me.

Isn't better letting Spain form, conquering Aragonese province and feeding cores back?

Actually, its worth to build workshops in low trade value goods if they give you .20 ducats plus since you can pay them off very fast, delete them late game, and replace them whit soldiers' households giving you profit and extra building slot late game

Abd

2y↑1

something you slightly screwed up in the peace deal, when you're in a reconquest CB, take land, use the "return cores" interface, otherwise the warscore cost discount won't apply and the ottomans won't lose their cores on the lost greek land.

i love the mamluk gov reform. it actualy makes me care about cultures which is realy cool.

The Mamluks are a really underrated nation, I hope more people pay attention to them due to this video! It's sad that they barely have any mission tree though...

Heisenstein

Sadly, they desperately lack flavor and missions. PDX just needs to work on Middle-east region again. Syria, Iraq, etc have no missions at all

Jessica Lindo

2y↑1

Can you imagine if throughout history rulers just made vassals and more vassals and integrated their old ones and went "We're declaring war on the Ottomans to reconquer the rightful land of Syria!"

Gunar Liepins

You probably know by now what to expect from me ;) Although I gotta admit, with the last Dev Diary it feels kind of wrong to ask for a TO Baltic Crusader guide considering how much more awesome it will be to do that as a Holy Horde with the next expansion :( Keep up the great content!

ChillCatfish777

2y↑6

Maybe change the title to HRE style vassal swarm. A lot people including myself thought you were going to become emperor of the HRE.
Still a great video and helpful guide though!

Michael Lipham

one quick note.if you plan on no cb’ing byzantium and buying stability after it would make more sense to buy one stability at the very start to get its benefits for the 2 years before declaring and it’s the same cost as being on negative stability so the cost is the same and you get the benefits of being on one stability

Zach Morgan

I'd say Mamluks is in my top 5. Although instead of Florence I'm more of a Naples man myself.

Zaur Budaqov

you must try to vassalize Oman and Hassa too

Hakiki Wicaksana

2y↑1

One thing that I like from the mamluks is that you won't get a stab hit when your ruler dies
Not only that you can easily get high army tradition by constanly make your ruler a general and pick the next ruler with circasian origin which give you 10% army tradition if I'm not mistaken 🤔

Ali of Hwice

The Mamluks pseudo-election system encourages you to mix it up by switching between circasian and most popular culture (usually Egyptian) by giving specific buttons, like free gold and manpower. The Army tradition is OK, but a very short term thing if you're gonna goto war soon.

Irfan Hekimoglu

2y↑4

I was just watching your old mamluk video what luck! Thanks for this 👍

Mast

I think when Ottoman annex all Beyliks, there should be a mission or event that deletes all cores and makes some Balkan provinces muslim because Mehmet II applied resettling to Beyliks and they lost their claims. He did it because when Timurid beat Ottomans on Ankara at 1402, nearly all Beyliks come back. He didn't want to happen again. This would add flavour to the game. Most absolutist chad of his era.

Spain and the Timurids were crazy in my last Mamluks idea.

Does this mean that it's too late to tell you to play another nation that starts with a m (Mogadishu)?

Jonathan Caron

As the Mamluks you have the decision options to form Arabia at admin 10 and Egypt at admin 20. I would have liked to hear your thoughts on that, good idea or not? (I've only played the Mamluks once, formed Arabia and then forming Egypt was not an option anymore...)

Aidan Maloney

Amazing Eu4 glitch: if you take transfer subjects as an age ability you can take personal unions as vassals if you are playing Austria you can take Sweden, Norway, and Lithuania in less than 50 years

Brandon Lyon

I've done that many times before especially with Norway as England/Scotland and Muscovy. Not sure about Lithuania though, last I recall they were always to big to do such a thing. Hell it's usually to big for Sweden unless you takes some lands from them or take I think Diplomatic ideas to make it cheaper to transfer the whole nation as a vassal.

Vinícius Yugulis

That's intentional, not a glitch tho

Meme Industry

Is that a glitch? I just had that happen today where I was the ottomans and took Hungary as a vassal from Austria for like 30 war score.

Warscore to return cores is actually slightly cheaper (than switching occupations for vassals) and just "taking" provinces .

No, on the contrary actually

Return cores is only better if you want to increase relations with vassal quickly

@S Patrk yes western troops excel when at firepower

S Patrk

yes. ottoman army type is insane strong at beginning because of their army types.
not sure when exactly it starts balancing out..
i think it balances at some point in mid game, and their troops become weaker from western troops in late game.
