Probably the low tech. You are given lots of gold and lots of industrial in the beginning to bribe other countries. Anything you lend lease to your allies is negligible. If you stay inside of your city and simply defend the invading british/austrian/prussian forces, you will actually help your team a lot. Do you have a general with a healing item? He gets a heavy cavalry from the start.All he has do is be patient as the french steam roller to pass and wait for the opportunity to collect Cologne or Frankfort,Hamburg and Berlin, if you use auto too soon ,it may never happen. There is no way to win Netherlands with just Amsterdam. Well I guess you could, but it would be damn slow. Perhaps he doing conquests before even having an cavalry gen,idk. |

Have you tried the method where you bribe the countries turn 1, turn 2... you literally beat the conquest with just amsterdam and not doing absolutely anything. |

silvercreek, I think I figured out what your issue is. You probably never tried to autoplay netherlands 1798. Its actually very fast to do it with just amsterdam. I did it in 14 minutes once. Let me know if you need the instructions : )

Thanks,but no thanks.(; Sorry i did not mean auto, i mean like skip until you win. Park the general with plain fighting on the naval gun, other general in the city, and once you are done bribing, just start spamming the skip button. It should take you from turn 18 to turn 70 in 10 minutes. It is perfect for when you are watching movies or when you are watching videos / movies for school. |

 i have this guy so I don’t have to micromanage anything at all, other than bribing other countries. The guy sits in amsterdam and it is literally impossible to kill him, well at least with the ai’s resources. |

But where do you get all this gold for the bribing,since Netherlands economy starts very weak,one wonders.?? |

   silvercreekyou have to bribe your allies/enemies turn 1 as it is proportional to your economy. Do not spend the 300 gold on upgrading the city. Turn 1: Bribe Poland, Prussia, Denmark, & Ottomans (29 gold, 14 industrial) (each) (116 gold, 56 industrial) (total) Declare on: Portugal, Sardinia Turn 2: Declare on: Sweden Turn 4: Bribe: Ottomans 2 (87 gold, 42 industrial) Turn 9: Bribe: Ottomans 3 (145 gold, 70 industrial) Turn 10: Bribe Russia (29 gold, 14 industrial) Turn 13: Bribe Russia (87 gold, 42 industrial) Turn 18 Bribe Russia 3 (145 gold, 70 industrial) This method is 2x faster than actually playing it. It is also 5x easier when watching a movie as after turn 18, all you have to do is click skip. Do not take any new cities or go overpopulation otherwise you will not be able to exploit the cheap cost of bribing your allies. |

As the above comment said.
Bribing cost is equal to your income for that turn for the first bribe, 3x income for second bribe and 5x for third. So small income does not matter when bribing.
Netherlands start with enough money for 4 bribes immediately so it is the better strategy.
Also auto-ing means turning auto on and pressing skip 50 times, takes 15 min totals and my battery went down by less than 5%. Also not tiring.

We are happy you found your own method to do it silvercreek, but for a beginner with absolutely no tech, it is impossible to do |

Where's the fun in that? |

Where's the fun in that? Again, beginners do not have great generals. They have only jourdan at best, which they have to stick in either a heavy cav or the grenadier. But if its your preference, use it |
