Any chance to form poland as krakow?

[[Z] EMKP]

I've been playing as krakow until 1901 and really i've gotten nowhere beyond maxinhg out my industry. What are my chances that I make an independent poland and if it's above 0, when do y'all think? Or what are the chances of being able to form poland as krakow in general?

Just forget about that achievement. It's been broken since forever.

Or, prepare to save-scum. MASSIVELY SO. I'm not even talking about a dozen reloads, more like fifty.

It's the "Not Yet Lost" achievement. You need to start as Krakow, complete the journal quest, and form Poland. Due to game rule changes, this one is now plain impossible.

Independence might work, but the game rules scale down quite badly. Playing as a tiny country, especially a landlocked one, is both a massive chore and a risky gamble.

At least its not asking you to build Panama Canal in the Suez.

You simply have to research N-dimensional physics.

No, wait, wrong game.

This was the furthest I got. Independant & doing well sort of. But the timing is off, should be way earlier :/

If you're trying to brag, at least do it correctly.

the devs don't test their own achievements. Krakow, Indian Territory, Hindustan. These 3 alone are based purely on luck and bad AI decisions. It doesn't matter at all how "good" you are at the game. It's literally impossible to get them on Ironman. I guess that's why achievements are possible in regular game mode

[Bruce Wayne]

It's possible. I just finished my poland run yesterday. It was really easy. Just sick to it!

I mean i played krakow until 1904 and I still have the save... i'll try to at least become independent

[Merluca Kitsokami]

Its possible, but A lot of luck dependend, if you can get independence early with help and steal enough land of Russia/Austria. After that you need to build up a strong military to fight all of the Neighbours for the last polish lands to form poland. After truce is over you need to grab belarusian and ukrainian territories as fast as possible, without going over 100 infamy so that you become the commanwealth.

In my game i managed that achievment in the year 1935. so it was a close call

[background_character42]

Yes, I've done it. You need to ally with Prussia or Britain, kick Austria's ass and take their Polish lands, kick Russia's ass and take their Polish lands, form Poland, take more Russian/Prussian lands to form Poland-Lithuania, once you form the Commonwealth you will get a journal entry, take over Ukraine or Belarus and do the journal entry and you get it.
