I got it in 45 turns, it secured me Sakaruko, however in my last conquest in America i got 40 turns as us and I got 300 years ruled in asia. Easytech logic.

My experience and recommendation on conquests is as follows: - Use England 1798 as your first conquest: Good guide (this thread), quite safe map position with UK's "splendid isolation", and using Hood you can roll up the things from two fronts. I (being a perfectionist here, using s/l quite often) received with a mediocre line up, consiting of Kutaisov, Dumuriez and Graham (maybe I had Golitsyn already, do not remember) and not many items 4 princesses out of first try (Sophia, Maria, Fatimah and (!) Isabella). This was surely luck, but for receiving Sophia (which should be main focus of the action) it should be fine independent from your playing style. - Than I recommend to visit America (UK or USA, no matter which scenario) to receive Kate. - Next Focus should be Lan, so I recommend America 1812, playing UK. My first two tries were unsuccsessful, but gave me Sakurato, but finally I succeeded. See here on Stats- And finally, you will have the ultimate challenge of winning Victoria, which to all experience around here, HRE 1798 ist the best scenario. Unfortunately, this is boring like hell, the units suck, and I do not want to play this often. Up to now I did not succeed. My best shot is turn 26 with 290 Campaign stars, and something 5500/1500/6500 resources. Only 800 years... This should give you a variety of different scenarios to play on the road to the princesses (I am so greedy, all ladies for me!) and success should be also there step by step. Ok. Tonight I start with next try HRE 1798. Urghs. |

You can get 850 years up to turn 31. Try to buy/sell as much as you can (probably with business 5 star general).
I got Victoria in turn 31 with 9999/31xx/9xxx resources.

I think it's time to revive this for a second way to unlock all princesses as it's also possible with the UK

Ant贸nio Salazar Just tried this setup without any generals (haven't got any, so not like I had a choice  ).
Ireland's group didn't really go well, I got jumped by the french ship in Brest, so I lost the cannon but my fleet 1 sunk the frenchy and saved my cav & inf. They got to Spain safely but didn't have a way to get a city, so I shuffled over to Bordeaux (it's within range of my ships) and took it as my starting point in SW France for the Spanish campaign instead of a city in Spain. Scotland's group fare even worse without a general. Tried to take a harbor and a factory, got kicked out of Norway for all of that trouble. One thing at least, Hood is now in the area on patrol for an opportunity to shoot a Norwegian dead in vengeance. I'm having to send another batch of troops from Scotland but it's lucky that North Sea isn't huge as the Atlantic Ocean. I should have waited until Amsterdam was captured before the Scottish boys lands in Norway along with Hood's support. As for the England's group, it needs an extra cav general which I lacks. It did capture Paris with help from the Holland's group. But I had to sacrifice the two generals (one is still alive but almost dead) to capture Paris. It was a close call, but that's done now. Whew! It's extremely risky to try it without an extra general. Nelson's group did just fine.
Perhaps this should be an addendum to the guide for people playing without generals?
