2. you can't say Hungary and Croatia allied with the catholics because THEY WERE HABSBURG SUBJECTS
3. The first question was regarding Bohemia NOT the entire HRE. I was confused why "peace of Augsburg" wasn't working as it was the only logical solution
4. There. Was. No. GERMANY!
5. "Cavalry charge" is not a special tactic and not about Gustavus Adolphus. He used superior firepower (both artillery and musketeers)
