Alright, I am going into my first conquest. Only enemies now are uk and HRE. Others will join later. Plan is to focus on the east and defeat HRE than Russia. I will probably send a few forces to Portugal and southern Italy. At the start of turn 2, Portugal offered to join the war later in exchange for resources. I am not interested and will probably decline any more offers like this that come up. I need those resources to improve my cities and build units First choice in technology is between marching bulge and military service. March bulge gives 2+ mobility. Military service gives 10% HP to artillery. I choose marching bulge because artillery has low movement and the extra mobility will really help. Event popped up and the British get more industry. Luckily them I get a event but it has no effect. Probably for the best since this does not sound like a good thing to have in the middle of a war I been focusing my resources to improve my cities so I get more income. I haven't captured any cities yet but income has seen good increase due to the upgrades. This is the wonder France starts off with and I used it in the 4th turn now my 2 artillery units can get in range. I don't have many artillery units right now so I will have to make more if I want to use it. This is where the major fighting is happening. Troops in southern France have moved across see the Italian boarder to attack HRE as well

A good event for France Next tech. choice ballistics or artillery doctrine. I went with artillery doctrine because I didn't like the fact you get less damage with artillery when going with ballistics. The attack on Frankfurt did not go very well and I have to quickly recruit more men to defend against HRE attack My ally the Netherlands was defeated Russia get a event with a morale boost but they won't join the war till 3 more turns. Maybe the buff will run out? By now I had beaten back the HRE attack and taken Frankfurt. My Spanish allies are taking Portugal so that is good. My biggest worry is I lost the battle against the British navy in the south of France near Italy and now Corsica is under their attack.

Try to maximize your offensive towards HRE and build an army to crush Brits, they are really weak. The rest of enemy bloc will be at your allies' mercy.

To clear the Poland thing up, it is named "Warsaw" so the Poland we see in the conquest most likely refers to the Duchy of Warsaw. As for why it's in 1798 conquest I would just chalk it to another easytech historical inaccuracy.

Defend the province bordering the one hosting Berlin & push into the province which Hamburg controls. Try to trap Berlin by land.
I think a capital assault will not work when you regain the offensive.

Turn 30 and it's pretty clear I am getting stomped by the anti French alliance. Only allies left are ottomans and Spain. The prussians and Russians come from the east while the British and Swedens make landings north In the south I am just surprised how Sardinia got so many troops. I think I was too careless at some points in the conquest and now paying attention to the southern front. I will probably get a few tech upgarded before trying another conquest.
