Britain 1812

I played Britain for a few times, and the biggest problem you have is that Sweden loses to Denmark almost 100 % of the time, if you don't do something about it. Russia eventually wins, except when it doesn't, Austria loses again(no surprise here), Prussia holds its ground for a while but would eventually fall. Pretty much the moment Denmark defeats Sweden, a domino effect would cause all the other coalition forces except for Portugal, Spain and Britain to fall before the might of the French alliance. Morocco also wins but is short lived, since the moment the Ottomans and Algerians defeat Egypt, Morocco may fall. Morocco's defeat is dependent on how early Egypt falls. The earlier Egypt falls, the higher the chance Morocco would fall. So send some units to Morocco, or just simply donate some of your resources to Egypt so they won't get stomped.Anyway, one tip for playing Britain is to simply sail your strong generals to Denmark as early as possible, while sending some of your units to the france. Distract the navy general of Netherlands so he won't attack your generals, and things would go smoothly from there. Great Britain is the easiest 3 star country, so it should be ez pz after you defeat the Danes ( don't forget about greenland). Also, Britain has some units stationed in the Americas. Just let them move around and only attack dearborn ( who is in a rocket, thus he won't retaliate), and capture cities that are unprotected. You can conquer the Americas by turn 30. Just make sure your units are healthy there tho, since it would be tragic if all your 3 land units in the Americas die: more turns you could have saved if only you didn't play too aggressive at first.

The Danes would enter at around turn 3. Either wait for Falsen to attack the Swedes, or land as fast as you can. The first option is the safer one, but the second one also works. The Dutch navy general won't pursue you btw.

Strategy for 1812 Britain is i send Paget and Picton towards Denmark. Build my cavalry gens in Britain and send them towards France. Build Nelson turn 2 to demolish the French navy(if you don't have a navy gen it's fine). Send my Cotton and Jervis towards Greenlands, send my artillery gen and Wellesley to help spain, use Smith and Duckworth to harass the French, Italian and Naples' cities, and my forces at America to just stay healthy until i can capture i city. Build some farms early to maintain your population. Build Universities to sustain your forced marches and Blast. Main strength of this strategy is that you can beat the United states in a short time, in my case it was turn 18 (took the screenshot at turn 19). You also defeat the Danes pretty early. Main drawback is that your main force is far away from the Ottomans, and despite my donations towards Austria and Egypt, they weren't able to capture any city (was hoping Egypt would at least capture Jerusalem by turn 30.)






Ottomans are the problem to Britain in this conquest (not gonna make a Gallipoli campaign joke)






I managed to finish 41 turns using Britain. I realized i only used 7 generals and didn't use my Mahmud. My advise is to try Formulating forced marches ASAP, along with blast. I didn't use my forced march that much really. Also, send your forces directly towards the Ottomans, with one of your generals (preferably your strongest artillery gen) to solo the Italian Peninsula. Also try bribing Prussia once if you can afford it. Them entering 2 turns earlier may be a game changer. Try not to send Paget and Picton to Denmark, and only Nelson(or a frigate if you don't have a navy gen yet), or maybe on Paget and your Navy gen towards Denmark. Also, instead of staying in France and trying to capture Paris with your cavalry gens(the one i did), try to instead spam Heavy and light artillery from your nearest captured city and bombard it, and use your forced march to get your Cavalry gens to get to Ottoman lands ASAP.

I just copy pasted this from the post i made in the EW6 conquest records. The screen shots are there. 

Louis Gabriel Suchet ,Deleted ,Antonina of Philippopolis ,Arty Rules , IMO, don't bother going UK unless you really want to, since 1812 heavily favors the French Imperial side both militarily and geographically. Austria, Prussia, Sweden and Egypt are guaranteed dead meat at turn 30 by the latest, and Russia, Spain and Portugal will follows shortly. My strat is waiting out in North America and let the Canadians duke it out then steal, sucker punch Norway real hard without worrying too much about France since they will be occupied in Spain, then from Norway proceed down to former Poland. Getting S rank with UK is usually pretty much non-existent, and you will be better off playing French Imperial side while giving the US lots of lend-lease.

Arty Rules, The Grande Army can walks to Moscow, the London Fortress doesn't.

The problem with Ottomans is twofold
One reason I mentioned above and another one is Britain.

All French and Danish attempts to disembark their troops will fail miserably. So you have to destroy Britain by yourself. Not an easy task judging the distances...

Russia 1812 is definitely doable. I won it with S rank and no gens, but with very high tech lvls. My strategy differed as I sent Bagration to confront the French and my circumstances was lucky such that Mexico and Canada defeated the USA.

I agree with your statement, because from my observation, Britain is very thinly spread across both sides of the Atlantic. It's forces in Northern and Southern Europe (if you dissect it laterally) are insufficient to mount and sustain any major assault. You'd be reusing the general strategy of the American Revolutionary War: Consolidate your tiny forces within whatever allied positions you have and hope that minor campaigns can wear down the enemy or force a swift and decisive victory.

If you tried and succeeded, you may find yourself opening up fronts and entering the mainland via Brittany and Denmark-Norway.

If you are lucky, you may occupy some cities in the Americas or the Iberian Peninsula.
