strategy without generals certainly is different. The Ireland group should only ever be attempted if you want to get it in less than 40 turns IMO I do have Bordeaux now, and now straddling Spain/France border with a couple od troops. If anything, my Italian campaign probably will be done before the Spanish one, tho. I expect to end up taking Marsaillie while coming up north from Rome/Milian. And thanks António Salazar, let me know what you got.  |

Am I the only one who took Rome with Nelson's fleet?

Yes that is actually the plan. You send your light infantry back after you captured Tirana, then you try and capture the Naples ranch with it (They'll be pissed but they will stay your allies). With Nelson and his compagnon you take out Napoleon and then bomb Rome which you can capture thereafter.

With Nelson and his compagnon you take out Napoleon and then bomb Rome which you can capture thereafter. wouldn't made sense if Rome wasn't taken, really. Why would I want to bother talking a horse ranch from the puny Naples if I weren't going to take Rome on the way north to France? If there was a different plan, I would think it's pointless to take that horse ranch. I figured that was probably what you had in mind. You're logical and experienced, so I figured that it's the only real reason why you included it into your excellent guide. |

You get the Light Infantry with you at Nelsons fleet. I use it to capture Tirana AND Rome, from Tirana I make arty and cap greece and Turkey |

I use it to capture Tirana AND Rome, from Tirana I make arty and cap greece and Turkey But I use it only to capture Tirana and the stable near where Thessaloniki is in modern days. I use an arty to capture rome. Or Dumouriez, who I usually put on a heavy cav from the stable. |

It's not exactly true that HRE is the easiest country for a conquest. Great Britain, Russia, or even France are probably easier. But when you see people mention about HRE 98, they actually mean that HRE 98 is the best country to finish a campaign fast. And what they mean by 'fast' is not under 50 or 40 rounds, it's 30 or even 20+ rounds with tons of resources at the end, so that princesses Lan and Victoria are unlocked. Many players finish it with HRE in 26-27 rounds. But it's so true that HRE is boring. Its not that boring to me. The first time i did it good was when I won it in 62 rounds. I just won it in 43 and got isabela. |

I personally don't know about rushing GB, but in general spain can be starved, France crumbles without generals and Paris, and Italy is basically just Rome Mostly because: 1. HRE has more cities, especially high level cities, so better economy. 2. HRE has more generals, especially a very strong one, Archduke C.. Klenau, Lusignan and Deroy are not weak also. While GB has only Charles and Rowland, even they are not weak, but cannot be compared to HRE. Nelson and Hood are navy generals so I basically ignored them. 3. HRE has more beginning army units than GB. That's why people prefer HRE for rushing more, even though its unit system sucks. I also prefer hre for rushing. |

I have never been able to properly beat England 1798. In terms of generals, england has better ones than Hre. If you look at Jean-Luc Picard ‘s general rating, literarlly half of the generals the Hre has fall into his “F” category. For example, generals like deroy, rosenberg, holtze, davidovich are basically just regular units with more health. They make me want to puke. As for the rest of generals, August I is a really good economics general imo but he is on the wrong unit and can’t travel quickly, Klenau, he is pretty bad is all I can say. Lusignan is good but only 36 health and 2 nobility. Come on. He gets wrecked extremely easily. Archduke Charles is also in Jean-Luc Picard ‘s 1 star iap category. He doesn’t have mass fire, but he does have 5 training stars. The austrian generals aren’t good. There are just so many of them. |

Thanks for this guide it’s really helpful and fast. Completed with 43 rounds, it got me fatimah maria and isabela 43 rounds for Isabela? This puts a few things on my to-do list for the Android version of the game (I already have all three of those on the Kindle version). 1) Give it another run now that I have Snare Drum and can keep my generals' battle output maxed out (I don't have upgraded powders, cav pistols etc. yet on this platform, so it's not competing for space). Because I'm very close to that many rounds for the HRE run. 2) Hope that War Horse comes into the shop next time I can afford it, so I can get Dumouriez into Spain at an appropriate speed with much of his health intact (at the moment he runs into one of the French generals and gets a fair bit depleted along the way). 3) Find the Google Play gift card I've got lying about the place, so I can open up all the slots. I am inclined to try this out, but on the whole I think right now I'd be better off concentrating on perfecting the HRE run, which we know achieves results. |
