I think there is a path to a 30 turn win with Great Britain in 1798. The placement of their units seems to perfect.
I played it Sophia on the rockets, Maria on the light infantry and Kate on the battleship.
I got 7 tavern generals. Weselly comes available at round 26 in London. He has 4 stars trading. I think if he can get to Dublin soon, you can use him to trade for a better score. It seems 3200 iron and max food/ gold is the target.

Iβm no expert, and Britain might well be doable, but it sure as hell wonβt be doable with Maria. 3. From my experience, Spain and Turkey are probably going to be issues. That being said, more power to you if you can actually pull this off. |

Thanks!
Last time I immediately sent Nelson to Sardinia and he was able to take out Napoleon before Napoleon could conquer Caligari.
My troops did their jobs. Ottoman fell by Round 28, but the Italians conquered Vienna and Dombrowski settled in Budapest so I missed the 30 round deadline.

For Victoria round 31 is a limit. (R30 for Asian years) Depending on your campaign progress there is - if you have a very strong! economy! - the chance to get Victoria a few rounds later How is England's economy? And your campaign |

I also found the probability of AI tatics and Spaming if you want to know. |

I stopped at round 30 with 6000/1500/6000 but I forgot that you can still get 850 years Europe up to round 32, so I will try to finish it in the next few days.
I made some mistakes mid game, like leaving a port open so the French retook it and foolishly attacked a coastal cannon with ships. The difficulty of 850 years is that you have to be careful with your spam, every artillery you buy makes an impact on your hopes of getting the economic numbers right.

Just bulid up your economic abilitys, after that just spam Grenadiers. They may be expensive but can greatly defend and won't die as easy as Artillery. |

The difficulty of 850 years is that you have to be careful with your spam, every artillery you buy makes an impact on your hopes of getting the economic numbers right. Finishing in Round 31! After Round 31 (max 38) is extreme rare and much much more resources are needed. Finishing before is disadvantage, you need every round to collect more resources. (for Europe) The problem is the economy. The English economy seems to be too weak for Victoria - you need practical the double amount of resources - this seems the real problem. Spamming too much (and expensive!) troops can become a problem. Where Troops don't fight after round 25 less troops are needed. (I usually have good resources - my army consumes β 500π not more) Artillery is really expensive - I made the Reference Units to compare the costs for spamming. The minimal resources score for Victoria is 3001π§ (9999π°π - always!) - with little campaignβ even more. I assume.the initial English economy is too weak to achieve Victoria P.S. You have to be greedy with your allies - every city and factory you have more is important - it counts. |

I also generally attack cities before the capitals which I think is a mistake. Should probably go for the capitals first.

I take what is in the path of my main troops I can't really see this big economic difference in taking big cities first. My way: trading! I'm playing the game a second time and I just used Arnold for the two conquests. By changing without loss the resources I can upgrade fast - I build exact this unit I need - on comparable costs - I don't have to finish one turn with unused resources. Factory IV: 16π§ = 80π° City VI: 45π°6π§ = 75π° I always send the weakest unit to the battles of my allies - just waiting if the city will be undefended after the attack of my allies - I take the city and they go happy against the next target. Like this I got in HRE all from Poland - practical without one shot. (Also Amsterdam) |

Before Arnold was my trading general and I had no problem leaving him in a city 30 rounds. But now Lan is my only 5 star trader and I just want to let her go out and do her thing.

I always have to smile reading this - I know the pain - I made exact the same 'mistake' - With Arnold I got the princess - and after I regrouped him to Lan. Now Lan is my only trader and I have to use her in an quite unusual manner. With extra slots I kept Arnold. Leaving Lan in a city feels so insane. In the campaign missions I have to improvise a lot to handle this conflict. |
