Oh I see. Sweden and Denmark are pretty annoying for France 1815. So is Egypt. I just did that one yesterday in an attempt to get Isabela (yes I still haven't gotten her) and Egypt extended my turn count by 10 making it around 52. The nearest place to Egypt that France can take is Sardinia and it literally took me 30 turns to reach it. This really takes away 1815 France as a rushing conquest. I'll take 1798 any day.

I don't think 1815 could even be considered a rushing scenario because there is North Africa in the map which extends the whole conquest by at least 10 turns.

IMO 1798 is the best rushing scenario for Europe. There aren't too many fronts you have to fight at (at least does it feel like that for me)

Could Poland be considered a rushing nation? After all it starts out right smack in the middle of 3 major enemies. If you can get out if the tight spot you start out in, and you have decent generals I think that Poland could be very viable for at least a 45 turn conquest even with GB over in the corner. You could go straight from Northern HRE to reclaim Amsterdam and attack GB from there.

You could go straight from Northern HRE to reclaim Amsterdam and attack GB from there. I did try Poland with my hacked version. Trust me it's no rushing nation at all. The reason isn't even GB it's Portugal. I thought Spain could take it by themselves but NOPE they failed and actually lost land.

Ah the ever-annoying Portugal. I am going to try Poland 1798 soon and see what my turn score will be, and what the best way to deal with Portugal is. I'm positive that Poland can be done effectively.

Could you upload pictures of it on this thread please. I really wonder if it's even possible in less than 80 rounds. I'm more the guy who goes slowly but safely.

I can just make a guide for Poland 1798. I will try to make it by tomorrow.

I just tried Poland with my weaker generals, planning on making a guide. But I was overwhelmed so I restarted and used my strongest generals, and quickly realized that Poland is indeed not a rushing conquest. You would think that it would be quite speedy but nope.

Yeah the problem is that you need alot of generals for Russia but as soon you beat them you can't use those generals anymore.

The problem with Poland is their relatively poor economy compare to HRE. More importantly, if you are good enough to launch blitzkrieg on Prussia, Russia, and HRE with Poland, then I think you can easily rush the whole map with HRE.

What about Poland in 1809 that looks good and poles do have some strong units??

I imagine that it would be similar to 1798, plus Spain is now an enemy so that would take even longer. Poland just has a bad start with the constant assaults from Russia, Prussia and Austria. By the time you secure the area and prepare to make the journey to Spain, that's about 25 turns down the drain.

Very nice!!! Congratulations π Keep your score please - I'm preparing two threads to collect campaign experiences - it will be great to have some notes of additional hints you gained. You did also a GB1798 if I remember correct.
