stoic France is near impossible. Britain is doable tho, and i've been messing around a hack (don't imprison me pls) to have max gens just to see if it's doable. Turns out that you can just send all your strong units towards the ottomans and steam roll everything, and send just artillery gen to Paris. Send atleast 2 cavalry gens towards Italy, and donate enough towards Morocco and Egypt so they can win. Got 32 turns (got lucky with Africa). Send 1 general to Denmark and your navy gens to Denmark and steamroll them, and have your 2 generals stationed one the island right of America to capture Greenland. You can easily win in the Americas in around turn 20, just play safe. I don't have the screenshot since i lost my old phone, and am currently just playing a different game rn while waiting for the new game to come out. A lot trickier and riskier than Russia,but is faster if the circumstances are right.

A lot trickier and riskier than Russia,but is faster if the circumstances are right. I see only one problem with Britain - Ottomans. At the beginning we have only Wellington on the continent. I tried to send him to Asia Minor a couple of times, but he was attacked and severely injured underway. Maybe there's a chance to move our troops through France, but inevitably they will heavily involved in fighting with the French, Bavarians, Italians and Ottomans somewhere in the Central Europe. Besides we can't send them all at once, and that means they will not support each other as they should in this situation. As you say it is possible to do this nevertheless, but I need time to upgrade my generals to try it, otherwise it will be a suicide  |

Ottoman Empire is the only problem with Britain.I tried this one myself,but only managed to get an A(Maybe because I auto after defeating all other enemies).I have a different strategy,though.I placed Massena on the grenadier in America.This allowed me to save Canada from its fate of having their key cities taken.Murat,Mahmud,Cotton and every one else except Jordan(whom I placed in Spain) landed in Denmark to save Sweden.In Spain,Wellington and Jordan helped held off the French.I got all fronts covered,except Ottoman.
Also,for fast-runners,actually 1812 favours Coalition and 1815 favours Imperial French.The reason is America.There's Brazil in 1815,and they will crush Gran Columbia and Mexico,saving the U.S. from defeat.

stoic, also don't forget that i used 6 cavalry gens, 1 navy and 1 artillery gen. Cavalry gens are essential to be able to get to the ottomans fast, 1 navy to prevent the french from doing anything in the English straight and conquering Denmark fast, and 1 artillery gen to capture Paris. It's tricky, and i haven't reproduce a consistent result, so it pretty much comes down to luck, and making as few mistakes as possible.

I see why players prefer 1812 Britain over its 1815 counterpart. There's absolutely NO power projection to take advantage of. Even if I do battle outside Brussels, the best I can do is to temporarily distract the Grande Armee and take out Napoleon. Interestingly, I'm on turn 30 for Britain 1815 and Grand Columbia has locked the war against Brazil in a stalemate.  Interestingly, with luck and continuous use of blasts, you can easily conquer major cities as Britain and even gain a foothold in France. Specifically, a desperate D-Day landing allowed me to capture Paris with Cotton while the French closed in because they allowed me to capture Paris as an open city. Same case with Lyon and Bordeaux. The continuous use of Blast technique is applied only to Paris and Lyon because the 2 admirals anchored along England, excluding Sydney, patrolled the coast of France facing the Atlantic.  Sadly, with the loss of its major cities, Canada has unofficially surrendered.  A most pleasant surprise, Gran Colombia is holding out! It has done so with little to no steady donations by me. |

France's resources are inexhaustible, so the only way to prevent an endless spamming is to take as many French cities as possible as soon as possible. |

Ah,sorry,I should've made myself clearer.I mean 1812 and 1815 in general.As for Britain,1812 is definitely more favourable. |

In 1815 for Imperial Eagle side is about two things:
1.How fast can Brazil take out Gran Columbia and win in America
2.How fast you can beat Austria,Prussia,and Russia so that France can sweep their cities

Canada is still a pain, since for some reason the United States decide to just roam around instead of going for the cities. |

True, i am surprised that us got careless at one point, and canada started counter attack. Then i got angry and move my other units in the quebec (?) region to defeat the canada. |

If you play anybody from the French sides. You may dominated Europe like a champ. But look at the newland and you find super large amount of army(combination of Mexico, Canada and Colombia army) coming to stress you up. So my advice for 1815 is just play coalition for the win |

Thanks for the efforts.
I want to add a good option for 1812 Britain..
If you declare war to Algeria at the beginning then Algeria will go to Spain mainland as they are the closest enemy. So your two navy generals there near Gibraltar will hunt their armies easily in the Mediterranean by attracting them and there you go. You don't have any North Africa situation when Algeria's armies sank before Morocco and Egypt joins the war. That will also cause a domino effect:
almost all Naples armies will move to Egypt by sea and sink there like Algeria (including Murad the beast) and after that Morocco will come to help you in Italy - Egypt will help you in Ottoman regions (that's what happened in my game)
That makes everything easier since I completed French eagle right now, I have 4 free generals (I did nothing to improve them + Massena and Alexander I) and unit upgrades, as you can guess, are not completed.

Maybe easy, maybe hard. I tried several times but I couldn't manage or couldn't get a rank with my low technology comparing with the rest. But with this approach I got S. I didn't think about North Africa, saved a lot of turns. I dominated Europe a lot easier since Naples, influenced by Murad, was destroyed in Mediterranean coasts of Egypt which did let Austria survive longer and Prussia (somehow Russia, too) survive... I believe, player behaves like a moderator while playing Britain 1812. Didn't spend much to upgrade cities or technologies. Helped allies to keep them alive as long as I could. After America fell, I didn't spawn a lot of units. Just my units with generals remained after the fall of France and Italy. The rest was taken care of the allies... As a conclusion, it made everything easier.. |
