Three questions:
How do you kill Nelson here?
I understand if you're playing as a landlocked nation or one in the north you won't need to deal with him. The Ottomans are in the south however and you have to deal with Nelson.
Was Suvorov alive when you reached Poland?
Skills and stars that make him fit infantry also make him hard to kill. If he wasn't dead when you reached Poland, it could be troublesome.
How hard was the Invasion of Britain?
Rowland in 1798 has Snare Drum and Britain might build a fleet.
1st Nelson, you can kill him when you are in a good economic situation, spam privateers because it would be a waste to spam battleships or frigates because, he will kill them really fast and you cannot build the Coastal Forts.
But if Nelson tries to land the battle tactic is: focus on killing the inf unit, then spam privateers on Nelson, the other battleship will go to Italy for some odd reason.
2nd Suvorov, that is a gamble but the odds are more in your favor, I have played it 2-3 times with this strategy and he died 2 times, but you need to be fast and use your elite cavalry general ( mine was dombrowski ) and "pocket" them, you need to steal Cities from the HRE so they cant get any reinforcments and that is one enemy less to worry about in Poland, so Kozciuisko will hold out more in Warsaw and he can stay alive until he can get Pointakowski, from this point you can get the russians from the other side, because you probably have killed Baragaitons Division, got Kiev and you still have an army in shape there.Use your Cav Gen there until the Black Division Arrives to finish them off ( NOTE:The Poles wont leave Warsaw the AI goes for deffence, the Prussian Cav Gen is going to die because the other Dombrowski,Destroy the Artillery and dont let Warsaw get surrounded).
3rd When you have finished with The HRE in Central Europe you will split your giant army. One to steal Marseille and spam Heavy Cav to Portugal, One goes to protect Normandy from the British (NOTE: Leave Netherlands undefended because it would be a perfect invasion place instead of shipping troops from a far away city), and the last ones go for Berlin then Scandinavia
Nelson has Leadership. Privateers can't surround him.
