Playing Victoria 2 HPM as the Netherlands. .org/image/7d9ccqvnd/]  [/url] .org/image/f320g3dfj/]  [/url] T'is a dark time for the Netherlands. The Catholic Belgians have seceded and are aided by the British, many of the colonies have been taken by the British during the Napoleonic Wars, and the Dutch are embroiled into a drawn out war with the Padri in Sumatra. The Netherlands needs a strong leader to reverse the current downsides it faces: That leader shall be King Willem III. The first thing I do is to defeat the Padris with my puppet states in Indonesia. I defeat them quickly, and the Aceh government is forced to cede multiple border territories. I then build more industry and try to gain more prestige. This boosts me to GP status and I dont need to worry about the British activating the Treaty of London which makes me lose my claims on Belgium. I have a truce with Belgium until April of 1839. I declare war then and restore order to Belgium. I dont peace out immediately as I want the warscore I got from Belgium to remain so I can steal clay from Britain. I take the Gold Coast, S. Africa, most of Australia, and Ceylon in the peace deal, as with Belgium, ofc. Now, I aim to unite Indonesia by sword and to expand my reach in Africa. More news will come as more developments come about. |

It's definitely a great game, so i'd say sure...if it's less than like $10 on sale. I wouldn't spend more than $15 at most since paradox always puts it on sale. If you want to play the stuff I'm playing with (The HPM mod), I can help you download if need be. |

UPDATE:
As I was allied with Prussia, I helped my German comrade attack France in the late 1840's. My forces defeated an entire French army and marched into Paris. The French attempted to counterattack, but the Prussians and their German allies were able to repulse them for me. The Papal States took over Luxembourg, and for some reason, I couldn't defeat them lol. The war ended with:
-France being humiliated
-Picardie (Dunkirk Region) being ceded to me
-French Senegal being ceded to me
-St. Martin (French side) being ceded to me, as with Martinique
-Alsace-Lorraine being given to Prussia
-Romagna (The Northeastern tip of the Papal States) becomes independent.
Prussia formed Germany in 1852.
I also expanded my influence in the Mid East, Africa, and Indonesia. I took over the Trucial States following my war with Belgium and Britain, and then went to war with Oman to take the Swahili Coast and Omani Abu Dhabi (UAE). I then took the rest of the Gold Coast from the Ashanti Kingdom and proceeded to annex my puppets in Indonesia and take over most of Borneo, Bali, and Celebes. I also took the port of Jiaxing from China.
The French tried to retake Picardie from me in 1853, but the Germans, Swedes and Spanish (AKA, the Squad) all helped me against them. I initially took large casualties, but after multiple stunning victories, the coalition successfully won against France. The war ended with Champagne being ceded to me and Franche-Comte (Verdun Region) being ceded to me
