Wow 186 turns - and very interesting.
Nice Idea for a full-map conquest to turn all allies.
The AI for Spain is horrible! It seems to prefer the worst possible action - lucky to have them as enemy.
Thanks for sharing - Now I can understand your complaints about the 99-turn limit on ΒΏkindle? .

Special tactics: None
Notes:
My first fun conquest - without any strategy - I even was unsure to deploy Victoria or Sophia as 4th general - Sophia on AC in R14 I choose.
Very interesting conquest - staring with 0π° and 0π§ and only 2 usable units ath the start the economy went quite nice.
To send the complete fleet (except the slow battleship) directly vs. West was perfect.
The end was horrible! Spain as your ally is the worst what can happen - (unbelievable) - I just had one save slot, With this save from R27 - I try to speed up the end, although I made many not so good moves and errors at the beginning.

Special tactics:
850 years/ Victoria achieved with France in 1798! Added the generals Junot, Sidney, Bubna, Archduke J, Mercer,Poriawski and Yorck. Medkits for Sophia and Bubna. Lan starts on the double heavy cav and goes to Bordeaux to trade
until round 10 before going to Portugal.
Much more cautious with Unit purchases to get enough resources. Mostly built militia, single grenadiers, single light cav and artillery. Only bought expensive units for generals.
Notes:
Easy peasy conquest.

littlecorporal, Congratulations on scoring Victoria! I shall have to try a fast run as France in 1798. Getting all the way across the map and finishing Russia off in time to do anything could be an issue, but practising it will be fun.

And this time so many resources!!!
What is the key? The savings in army-units?
Normally R32 is the hardest round for the jump, but you have far a lot more. Great!

Production was slightly higher, but it still maxed out at about 1800 gold/ 500 iron/ 1800- 400 food.I only bought light artillery. |

I checked my hre: 2054π° 436π§ = 3798π° vs FR: 3800π° Amazing, but this is equal - and slightly less food. 1475-408π Now I have a good reference how fat Ottoman economy in 1806 really is. This reason I wanted to speed up: R26 3575π° R38:4439π° |

Items:all
Special tactics:
fast cavalry (5 movement/hex) - speed up with knowledge of main problem:Spain (ally) and knowledge that I will have more than enough resources
Notes:
as I noted before - my fun conquest needs speed up:
Although a chaotic start I noticed mid of conquest the strong economy and so I tried to finish within R38:
R36 my stock overflow, R37 Morocco, R38 Britain - last fights with SL but on time.
Everything possible - but not with the AI of Spain - no comment. R48 or R54
One Save R23 I have. Lucky! Exact before Sakurako enters from Danzig the Baltic Sea. Instead continuing the Battle against Cronsted on Sea, her next target is direct Beresford - in Lisbon. Fast movement (between Danzig & Lyon 3 times even 6 hex with 2saddle) - again: unbelievable Spain....
With the knowledge of a full stock I built more troops. The whole conquest, only guards, with of the Ottoman country system the only choice. With all extra troops Morocco and Britain I defeat 1 round earlier, my stock overflow in R38, almost in 37 and perfect in time, but the difference was amazing big!!!
Spamming must be considered as a not approbate strategy - it ruins the resources score - except you have too much :-p
β
Spains anti-ai was able to give the missing hit (4HP) and occupy the last city (if it was undefended probably not!) in R38 - really at the last possible moment: DONE
550 Asia was amazing but:
with a 175k headquarter and 420β, up to R40 a full stock European conquest will give 550years
(just learned now)
Even for Asia resources can somehow compensate the not achieved round limit.
Comment:
My first 1806 (fun) conquest - not bad, and other countries will probably get similar amounts. 1806 seems to have more resources (factories?) than the 1798 and 1812 map.
The game keeps being interesting... I enjoy it

Round: 65
Ressources: 9999π§ 9999 π° 9499 π
Years Europe 400 years
Campaign 340 β / 420
The Team: Lan, Sakuroko, Isabella (All 98/7) Agha 5/1
Special tactics:
Spent the first 25 rounds with just Isabella and in game Agha conquering Tunisia and Sardinia before taking Bratislava and Vienna. Vienna has LEstoq and Balabio available in the tavern. 1815 tavern generals seem to have higher rank and nobility than in 1798. With those 2 and the team, 5 double armored cars can be made.
Notes:
Untained Agha on double AC with items is still a strong general. Many 1815 generals were on single formation units.

HRE in 1806! Congratulations! Before we thought only 1798 is possible to get 850 years Europe/ unlock Victoria. Great job!

HRE in 1806! Congratulations! Before we thought only 1798 is possible to get 850 years Europe/ unlock Victoria. Great job! I can't understand why 1806 is not recommended - For me it is a far away much better map as 1798! I was too tired to post more details, and I want to ask you littlecorporal to play this conquest to have another opinion. For me it was the fastest conquest with a lot lot of resources (8500π§ in R31) Stock overflow in R33. I played without any extra ambition and even have for my style a lot of troops (β540π) my target was R38 but: In R26! after I finished the last! enemy, I noticed the Moroccan Fort in the Sahara - this conquest can be so easy finished in less than 30 rounds - I am still shocked. I have to check the scores but I think with two light cavalry in time my test-run is already good enough to give 900/700 with one european-conquest! I search now all guides here - I have no Idea why 1806FR was never considered as the better way to get Victoria. Blue team 1806 as a "No way" - what a bad joke ! I played a few times HRE. HRE is a hard conquest compared to FR06: Around R22 my conquest battles are practical over - only a moop-up of the last spread units and Portugal (finished R25) are leftovers. The Morocco error I noticed after "finishing" 8 or 10 Rounds less are possible - I want to speed up my finish to finish to see if I get 900/700 in R30. I am sure: with a guide Fr 1806 in 38! rounds is the way to get Victoria - not HRE - for everyone! To play HRE was an error! For Lan we know already a few months that US-conquests are much better. My strategic decisions: minimal. - sending from R1 the MG and two infantry vs Portugal and steal the factory at Madrid from Spain. - the two French generals are enough to tanke during 20 rows all British territory. Additional troops I build there. - Lan and Isabella on the starting units head east. Two tavern generals I joined. The beginning seems slow and missing π° Is the first concern. Around R12 I can afford to build an AC for Sakurako. So easy - unbelievable! One different tactics I use in my last 1806 conquests: I kill all troops I can. Once the economy of an enemy is harmed, this forces the AI to build defending troops in this utility and no forts! The new troops will be quickly only Militaria and Light cavalry/artillery - all are one shot kills with the AC. A kill-to-go and I head forward with my fast cavalry, leaving the undefended city behind. Even if the AI still can build again a new troop, this will be no problem for my following main army. I didn't had any "fort-spam". |

Wow, thank you for the long post! I was confused, I thought you were HRE, now I see that you were France.
Exciting times here on the board! The key was trotzki figuring out the formula. The hunt for Lan and Victoria was what led me to this board. It was the biggest unknown of the game, but now the way is definitely known. Great!
