Ok to get started 1st Ill put the Pictures and tutorial in a second post this post is just the introduction 2nd this is just for fun not for a princess run Pro The HRE and Russian AI wont be that good at attacking you so you have an advantage you have a lot of mountains and the danube river will be a good deffence. only 1 or 2 general will attack you you have strong heavy artillery heavy cavalry and guard units you have a decent army and a capital Con a part of your army is in anatolia and you will need to pay transport ships for em especially the guard cavalry you have a small number of towns ( 3 lvl 3 towns belgrade athens and eskhemir) So lets get started Requirements 1 or 2 artillery gens preferably Sophia and Isabela 1 Cavalry Gen if you dont have isabela go for fatimah or maria. Fatimah would be useful on istanbul and/or upgrading belgrade Maria would be useful cause the Ottoman Guards are Strong In this tutorial I wont use an inf general also you could Use 2 cavalry generals and 1 artillery but its better to have two artillery for taking down generals and forts because Sophia is a fort knocker also NetherFreek you could put this in your list

Separate different sections with a horizontal bar, like this:
Looks better and less cluttery that way.

Tito, use comnas and periods! I'm not asking for dashes, Oxford commas, and split infinitives, just for you to try. Also: If you need 2 artillery generals, Maria doesn't actually fit the bill. Even Gazan is better

Even Gazan is better no I said to use for inf because ottoman guards are strong if you dont have isabela for the second artillery slot

Better to use an artillery trainer on artillery than Maria on inf. Also: commas and periods

Even Gazan is better no I said to use for inf because ottoman guards are strong if you dont have isabela for the second artillery slot Ottoman heavy artillery and heavy cavalry are OP. They have the best system for generals, to say the least. Since infantry is inherently weaker than cavalry or artillery, Maria shouldn't be used here. If you can't buy generals, use Kate. HRE is weak and I don't understand three generals against it and Russia (Russia's only edge is Suvorov). Having a Kate would be helpful against Britain.

Luisigan Sacken and Archduke Charles, I am not sure bout Charles cause I dont know what the AI will do.But anyway the Tutorial will be here soon

Orange is Optional Pink is the last thing to do Well to explain everything you will have 3 divisions Central Europe-Yellow , Russia-Black , Support-Red To start send your one ship to venice (the small italian port) and protect that area. Nelson wont go for albania, so the units down there will be the red team (later they will be going for russia and join the black team). Pasha is going to protect the Ottoman Empire right by the start of the Danube River until the units from Anatolia come. The units from Russia are going to be coming from sea for some reason so it will be easier to kill them. In the meantime you have taken Buda and Pest as shown in the picture ( aided by weak infantry and dombrowski ). Then send the weak inf to Russia and Dombrowski to capture Brunn and go for the French-HRE border. Before going to the stalemate on their border with france you need to take Vienna by attacking it with artillery with a general and when the Archduke is dead capture Vienna with Selim. Then move on and kill all of the HRE units. In russia you are going to meet aragaiton before hand you need to take Crimea and with some units pass crimea and take Kiev you can see it up in the picture, meanwhile your stronger units from the black team will flank and takeout baragaitons division. and then just move up and help Poland and take Moscow and they will be bassicly done, you just need to finish them off. In Central Europe send some units to take marseille and spam heavy cavalry from there to portugal ( before you take Marseille save there just to be careful to not make the French Neutral ) In the Meantime You need to have a big army in continental Europe.Send units ( with one or without a general ) to Normandy and maybe Brittany and defend it from the british, leave The Benelux Region Undefended so the british take it, that is the perfect place for invading britian but you can defend it and invade it via Scandinavia, because there is less Navy Activity but this is for a later time you need to let the british dry out themselves. Meanwhile you need to take Berlin and Kill Wilhelm with defencive maneuvers around Berlin and then go for Danzig, from there dont do anything more except defending Poland if you can and if it is alive in your game. From that moment when you have defeated the Main Prussian Army go to denmark and from there invade Sweeden with the plan above. Then you are bassicly done. Then go for Britian but I forgot to say dont take too long or the British Island will be too defended with forts and/or units, and you need to destroy Portugal but you dont need my help. Feel free to ask me anything if you havent understood or to correct me .org/image/ls0jfx5w3/] [/url]

Nelson actually always goes to Albania. He didnt go in my conquest (the green one was the enemys movement), he went down and the light inf unit got killed I guess cause I didnt see it later

The light infantry may or may not follow him, depending on circumstances.

Three questions:
How do you kill Nelson here?
I understand if you're playing as a landlocked nation or one in the north you won't need to deal with him. The Ottomans are in the south however and you have to deal with Nelson.
Was Suvorov alive when you reached Poland?
Skills and stars that make him fit infantry also make him hard to kill. If he wasn't dead when you reached Poland, it could be troublesome.
How hard was the Invasion of Britain?
Rowland in 1798 has Snare Drum and Britain might build a fleet.

The Ottomans are in the south however and you have to deal with Nelson. Was Suvorov alive when you reached Poland?Skills and stars that make him fit infantry also make him hard to kill. If he wasn't dead when you reached Poland, it could be troublesome. How hard was the Invasion of Britain?Rowland in 1798 has Snare Drum and Britain might build a fleet. 1st Nelson, you can kill him when you are in a good economic situation, spam privateers because it would be a waste to spam battleships or frigates because, he will kill them really fast and you cannot build the Coastal Forts. But if Nelson tries to land the battle tactic is: focus on killing the inf unit, then spam privateers on Nelson, the other battleship will go to Italy for some odd reason. 2nd Suvorov, that is a gamble but the odds are more in your favor, I have played it 2-3 times with this strategy and he died 2 times, but you need to be fast and use your elite cavalry general ( mine was dombrowski ) and "pocket" them, you need to steal Cities from the HRE so they cant get any reinforcments and that is one enemy less to worry about in Poland, so Kozciuisko will hold out more in Warsaw and he can stay alive until he can get Pointakowski, from this point you can get the russians from the other side, because you probably have killed Baragaitons Division, got Kiev and you still have an army in shape there.Use your Cav Gen there until the Black Division Arrives to finish them off ( NOTE:The Poles wont leave Warsaw the AI goes for deffence, the Prussian Cav Gen is going to die because the other Dombrowski,Destroy the Artillery and dont let Warsaw get surrounded). 3rd When you have finished with The HRE in Central Europe you will split your giant army. One to steal Marseille and spam Heavy Cav to Portugal, One goes to protect Normandy from the British (NOTE: Leave Netherlands undefended because it would be a perfect invasion place instead of shipping troops from a far away city), and the last ones go for Berlin then Scandinavia
