You can't eat people of different culture in EU4, whereas you can build a planet sized farm of xenos to be turned into sausages in stellaris.

All of a sudden, I realize that this is what's missing from EUIV. I've always wanted to try eating an Albanian.

best commander ever?
Where must we go, we who wander this wasteland, in search for our better selves?
In Egypt's sandy silence, all alone,
Stands a gigantic Leg, which far off throws
The only shadow that the Desert knows:—
"I am great OZYMANDIAS," saith the stone,
"The King of Kings; this mighty City shows
"The wonders of my hand." The City's gone,
Nought but the Leg remaining to disclose
The site of this forgotten Babylon.

We wonder, and some Hunter may express
Wonder like ours, when thro' the wilderness
Where London stood, holding the Wolf in chace,
He meets some fragment huge, and stops to guess
What powerful but unrecorded race
Once dwelt in that annihilated place.

Im tempted to get the black ice mod for HOI4, seeing the paradox world war Wednesday steam of it, it has soo much stuff, it looks awesome yet terrifying.

Which was the same reaction i had to my brief hoi3 experience with black ice.

Prussia is surprisingly fun. Allied with Russia and Bohemia, have almost partitioned Poland-Brandenburg and Lithuania.

Try a no alliance run. I managed to bully a few smaller powers before the almighty Franco-Swedish coalition spit roasts me with a large Russian state.

Allow them to siege your provinces. They naturally have a larger force than you and that's not going to change unless the AI throws their numerical advantage away on costly sieges. Raise your Legions, let them wear their inferior troops down on assaulting your holdings. When the enemy splits their armies, defeat them piecemeal once they're weakened and far enough away from one another. The heavy troops in your legions slaughter the light troops Odoacer fields so long as you aren't outnumbered too greatly.

No alliances at all or no alliances as Prussia since I sort-of needed Bohemia to survive Poland.

No alliances as Prussia. Then you form Germany and cry blood when every power in the world lines up against you.
