Most of the people claim that HRE is easy to play with because it borders to all enemy countries. England borders to all enemy countries but also borders to none (dafuq???).
I will explain: No hostile troops will try to enter your homeland except from 1 nooby french grenadier general. This is great because nobody will backstab you, because computers are dumb. Second of all: How does England border to every country?? I will explain with help of these photos I made:
You see you have 4 army groups:
Army 1 Scotland to Norway to conquer the factory and the town. Later the harbor and Christiana and then spam some troops and send half of them to Kiel and half to Copenhagen
Army 2 Liverpool Area: Take Rotterdam with the given fleet general and bomb Amsterdam. Land 1 or 2 troops next to Amsterdam to take it.
Army 3 London Area: Land in Southern Belgium, take Brussels (The small town there) and use your arty general to bomb Paris, (wait for the Holland army to take it)
Army 4 Ireland: Send it to Spain to the city north west of Madrid. Use your cannon to annoy Madrid army until it is dead and you can take it.
Army Ireland and Fleet 1: Use your cannon to kill Madrid troop and take it. Use your fleet to distract Spanish fleet general and take Cadiz.
Fleet 2: Use Nelson and the other ship to take the Harbor and use the army to take the factory.
Send back the army in Turkey to Naples after you have spammed several arty. Steal the ranch of Naples train some horses and take out the enemy arty of Italy and use Nelson and the other ship to kill Napoleon.
After Napoleon is dead, use Nelson to bomb Rome. Station your army and 1-2 horses next to Rome when Rome army is low health. Next turn take it.
Use your spammed arty (6 at least) to take Athens (use 3) and the ranch next to the factory (use 3). Use the ranch to spam lot of horses and your factory to spam some arty and use your arty (exept the Greece arty) and the Horses to take Istanbul (Pasha will come automatically out of Istanbul when you shoot him with cannon and Turkey will train light infantry in Istanbul= easy to take). The key to kill Pasha (he will be probably standing next Istanbul when you shoot him with artillery is to surround him with horses and just demoralize him to death with your huge horse army. When you have Athens conquered and destroyed the coastal gun there ship, your cannons to Eshkmir to take it. Use the rest of your Istanbul army to take whole Ottoman Empire. Note: Highly recommended to ship some troops form Istanbul to the mainland of Turkey to help the artillery there.
Generals:
Scotland army: No generals
Liverpool/Holland Army: additional cav gen and the already given fleet general
London army: Arty gen, Infant gen, Cav gen
Spain Army : additional infant gen after taking Madrid.
Rest is optional
I used this strategy and I got 41 turns and got Isabella and Japanese princess. I am sure you can do better with your gens
