Egypt 1815
Pros -
1. Are there any
Cons
1. Two fronts to fight from the beginning
2. Crap economy
3. Crap general
*Oh god! That’s gonna hurt *
Step 1 - Rule the Africa
Commander! Ottoman navy and Tripolitanian army are battering us from two sides. We must negate the Tripolitanian threat soon so that things don’t get out of control.
Objective - Secure your front and conquer Africa
Use your navy to defend the Ottomans. Just block with them, but do not attack. Blitzkrieg into Tripolitania. Spam as much as you can and protect your only general from artillery/naval fire. Securing your front by defeating your immediate enemy helps you to focus fire on the Ottomans. DO NOT SPAM TROOPS AT THE BEGINNING!! Use your economy to upgrade all the cities you have and those which you conquer. Spam troops only if extremely necessary. But defend your port at all costs.
Now, once the Tripolitania on your west is taken, spam some more troops and send them to the other part of Tripolitania. Land first and then attack. They are usually weak so there is not a need to send ships, which can be used better for defending against the incoming Ottomans. When you land, make sure to concentrate all your firepower at one city/facility preferably a no general one and spam troops accordingly. Conquer the rest of Africa.
2. Operation Juicebox
Commander! The king dreams of conquering Italy and Ottoman Empire. Orders are to move into Italy and Ottoman and take control of them.
Objective - Take Italy and Turkey
First of all, spam a few ships and fresh troops and send them to Naples. Italy should be easy pickings as you can easily bombard them with your ships. Land at the boot of Italy (Of course after taking Sicily)and your first priority is to capture a facility. Make sure to defend it vigorously as you will face Murat there. Spam continuously as that facility would most probably be under heavy pressure. Double/Triple stacked if possible or necessary.
Move up to the French border and clear out the remaining troops with ships. Do not forget to take Ajaccio if not already taken.
Coming to the Ottomans, you must gain naval superiority. Spam a few ships and destroy theirs. Line them up at the southern coast and bomb them. Make sure that the facilities in range of ships are already cleared before your troops make a landing (A couple would be enough). Also, at the same time, send them to Greece and make another amphibious landing there. You can also send another amphibious landing at Istanbul if you have enough resources, but usually they get pounded in trying to manage a three front war, giving you no tough time.
3. Operation Franco - Wallah (I know these names are really bad. Can you suggest some good ones? )
Objective - Occupy Wallachia and France (And complete the conquest if any cleanup required elsewhere).
March your troops in Italy to France. The advance down south, at the Alps wouldn’t be too tough as the French would be too focused on fighting Austria - Prussia - Britain. Sneak up from the south and occupy their centers. Liberate Spain and if required, make a landing in Spain via Algeria. There might be quite a lot of spam in the north. But the good thing is most of the French generals must have been dead by now. If there are any, surround and kill them. Don’t forget the Frigate trapped in the Bay of Biscay. The continuous assaults of the Allied should have weakened the French and taking Paris too, might not be a tough job.
Also, sometimes Augereau goes on a rage mode and jumps off to Britain, all on his own (Salute to this guy!). So capture a facility from the English and kill him and the remaining troops. Similarly, defeat the remnants of the Ottoman empire and Wallachia (Who would be probably dead by now).
So finally, after 2 centuries, you can see the Egyptian Pyramids in Paris! And Napoleon intended to make French styled towns in Egypt in 1799. Oh the irony!
