Speaking of which, I found a tip. If you play as Coalition in 1798, you should Declare on Spain and Italy turn 1. Italy will get wiped out by the HRE (Radetsky) and that way Portugal has a living chance to stay alive.

There are some guides, just search up the respective years, but be warned, there may be multiple threads discussing same era, same conquest, etc. You'll just have to see if a thread's title makes it out as a guide or help request. Plus, for Austria 1806, I would make it a Medium because I won without gens, by defending, waging war of attrition and waiting for Coalition counterattack. Of course, take this with a grain of salt because this run was done in one of the earliest versions of EW6. If Russia distracts the Ottoman Empire, you can slowly advance in the Balkans. Meanwhile, your western flank is all about defending yourself and Prussia. Polish front is easy once the Russian main force arrives. You can read it in my Austria 1806 guide. You do have a lot of points. But is Austria easier then other choices for 3 star conquest? Because these are ranked compared to others (except for very easy/hard but im not adding much of them), not themselves. If compared to others, the given rank is appropriate. However, I rarely play as a starting nation so I cannot tell. |

Why isnt Sardinia 1806 very hard? I might actually downgrade them. Only France and Spain go for you. And if you have 2 inf/art gens that have aura the spam is easy to beat

Algeria 1815 is also a very easy and fun conquest. Let me show you a couple of screenshots. As you can see, Portugal, Spain, Tribal Union, Morocco, and Egypt all capitulated under 25 turns. Gran Columbia and Austria are both very close to that state. All of my allies are doing very good meanwhile. Once GC is done, Brazil will proceed to Harass mexico being a very good distraction saving the us. If you want a 2 star, by far the best country in 1815 There's two ways to do this. Both ways I find difficult. Way 1 - wait for everyone to join. The spam is insane, and you also have Spain going for you. Ottomans won't help you with Egypt and Naples wants to focus on Europe instead. So you have to take care of the spam yourself. Way 2 - declare war on Egypt and Moroccco at beginning. This stops the spam. Tribal Union is poor and there units are very weak so you can let them wait. Spain will still go for you though. This way works a bit better but it's still hard. Since this is Middle East only useful gen with a terrain fighting here is Mahmud II. Him and Alexander are great artillery generals and can hit very hard. Mountains? Don't even try. Jungles? Well there are actually some in North Egypt but not much... Use Sophia/John/Karl for that front. Plains? None. Jungle Mountains? Ok just stop. Agha does have desert though, But the Moroccans fight hard. Egypt isn't that bad however. You will have to spend a lot of money unless you have max generals or tech. Spending the money means no bribing and losing your American allies... A big loss. That's why I struggle with Algeria. If you have max gens and tech you can pretty much do any conquest. |

Spending the money means no bribing and losing your American allies... A big loss. That's why I struggle with Algeria. If you have max gens and tech you can pretty much do any conquest. Max tech I am guilty of. What I do is I declare war on egypt and tribal union turn 1. I outmanuever the egyptians without using a general on that front (otherwise they won’t be active for a very long time). And bait them out of their cities. After a slight struggle, you should eventually gain the upperhand and defeat them. Do not put any generals on that front. You are right. The moroccans are very fierce. I typically eat the tribal union as fast as possible than I declare war on them right afterwards. Most attack your city to the north and don’t protect their own cities so after a brief struggle you will have the upper hand and ultimately win. It is tough but you have to be clever. Lend lease Brazil every now and then. Once morocco goes down, you know have to help France in the peninsular war. This will be quite long as france is huge. Make your way to Portugal grabbing all the major cities and capitulate the Portuguese first. Than end spain. By about turn 30-40, if you played your cards right, Gran Columnia will have capitulated and the US will be fine. You can either go capitulate Bavaria, or invade the United Kingdom. I recommend the latter as Bavaria will be crushed by your allies. Also build the spanish wonder. It takes a bit of practice but you can definitely do it. The other great Alternative is Denmark, but it is significantly harder than Algeria as you will have to fight Old Guards and Grenadier Cavarly’s left and right rather than some Tribal bois. I would give it another go. It is very easy at the start but tedious clean up. |

Yeah the enemies tech is most likely maxed out so that’s why, i would wait till it is maxed out to try. Or at least to British empire for everything. |

Because everytime I started declaring war on them turn 1, they would be taken out by naples, where normally they would survive for a very long time. I tried it at as Prussia and Sweden 1798 and it works so far. |

Ok I finally have time to finish 1812 and 1815. Had a lot of work to do, didn't have time for this. But now that the work is gone I can make it again.
