What idea group should i go with?

[Lochlan]

So i'm playing as Mewar and i was wondering which idea group would benefit me most to choose.

Here is a screenshot of my game so far if it matters.

An S Tier player would say Admin
An A Tier player would say Human
A B Tier player would say Innovative or Trade
A C Tier player would say Quantity or Defensive

offensive with the innovative combo for the policy; forts wont know what hit them. which to do first depends on projected point generation, but admin points might be best served for coring at that point in time. just remember not to fall behind in mil tech.

It depends which type of monarch points you have extra. If you are stuck with 0-0-6 ruler for 70 years there is very little point pushing on with Admin ideas.

If you do not plan to blob heavily, and have to wait between the wars, and have extra Military points then Defense will always help with similarly sized neighbours.

I went admin.

Also Mewar is pretty great.

Wise choice with a military-centric idea set like Mewar. Money and attrition are both high in India, so mercs will be useful, while coring can be costly. I think defensive would have been solid too, and perhaps a good second choice unless you are steamrolling by then. Morale is about the only bonus you do not have, helps attrition, and you can build some great forts once you control India to protect from any blobbers from east or west. If possible though, influence and humanist are also very useful in India. AE can build quick there, as can rebellions. If you are comfortable, I would almost go: admin, influence, humanist (can swap with influence based on your ruler and whether your big problem at the time is internal or external threats), military idea (quality or defensive).

Well... unless you want to colonize. Indian nations can do well at it and turn the Indian ocean into their private lake. I did it as VJ and was quite fun.

Note
I meant as your 1st Idea
After that the game goes wild
