Easiest yet, still no generals no princesses no tech 66turns.
If I get out of my laziness I will write something about it and post at least some of the screenshots I made(I'm too lazy to do it from phone)...

Ok, so I understood that people aren't sure how to do this conquest, so firstly upgrade your city and market, you need that pop and income+ you won't get another chance for quite some time. So turn 1 upgrade and don't move. turn 2, you will see that french general walks in water, attack him with your ship and general, if you get a cheap proposal from allies like in under 60 from each resource, get it(this applies to further turns) turn 3 stay with ship in firing range and don't let the general to come at your ship, he will go to west after your ship a bit so keep your general around the coast line to entertain french soldiers. turn 4 he will capture your port, attack his general with ship and keep your general in city, so that he can't capture it turn 5 most likely you have no units left, but hey there comes the Brits and kills the french, spawn a militia turn 6 if there are no french units nearby go after french city on island north from you(otherwise wait for your allies to take them out) turn 7-10 spawn 2 militias and go for Spanish island & take the city above turn 10-12 spawn militias and go for Turin and Marseilies after you take Marseilies build large fortress and factory, you will need to defend from Spanish main force so build militias and play wisely there will be 1-2 generals and 30 units coming straight at you, as I said play wisely and it won't end badly, if you are luckier than me and don't make some stupid mistakes as I did(like losing Spanish island because I spawned 2militias and arty and didn't check that I didn't have resources before moving militia in water to face 2 Spanish units...) While playing thru I only spawned one small ship, you can build ships instead of going after French cities in continent, which will make Spain more aggressive with ship building, anyway by turn 40 your allies will do something that you will actually notice, they will kill France and go after Spain
I'm still too lazy to put screenshots on PC to upload them, if anyone from the admins from FB side cares, guys you are free to upload those pics I sent and post/send me links to them  |

Upgrade the city for income?
Payback time is.. 60 turns.. I don't think population worth spending 300 coins.
By the time You really need more You have second city, no?

It actually is that you can get both more city health and bigger income which considering that your income is low and considering that you need to spend on upgrading the city anyway upgrading income at that point isn't that big of a deal... |

Dear The Light Bringer! Thank you very much for the Sardina Guide with Generals, but i think no general method will not work well. Many times i see Napoleon come to me and Bristish navy ignore French navy or Spain will send large army to you at very beginning. By using Militia in city as meat shield and Strong navy gen, we can handle it easily but without gen i think the winning rate is very low ^^! (I usually kill Lannes at 2nd or 3rd turns and face Napoleon at 6th or 7th turn)

 Success. I didn't get off of the island until round 25 though. |

When I played, the only general I faced besides Lannes was Murat who spawned in. I would say just restart if you are getting general spammed. I think it has something to do with your aggressiveness, I was not capturing cities until I was well into the conquest so France deployed their generals against the main Coalition forces instead of me.

I face Napoleon 80% conquests, usually get first city at 1x to 2x turn and always meet Generals spam (3 - 5 gens per playing time) from France. And now, I also meet navy spam from Spain at beginning nearly every time I do the conquest. I think after a number of conquest we did (I see that there is history of your conquest in Conquest choosing screen), game will increase the aggressive toward you. |

The thing is if you spawn generals right at the beginning AI will consider you a threat, if you don't you only have to survive French navy + Lannes which if you follow my guide will be quite easy... |

Poor me (TToTT). But i'm ok and i can survive, and I can finish conquest quicker when French arsenal is empty  |

We can get everything we need in game just by farming this conquest except buff medal and golden medal to upgrade general (but we can buy them with medal from farming or in other easy conquest in future). |

yuanzhong you are getting spammed because you're capturing their cities too quickly so they consider you a threat. I recommend making sure all of the navy general's are dead and advancing into Italy instead of France. You only want to poke France after the Russians and Prussians are dominating the north.

after doing the american campaign I tried out this sardinia conquest with the strategies mentioned (no generals, do as much diplomacy as possible) and I won in 54 turns without auto-play. I found it easy to take the coastal french city and also to sneak into corsica (the island to the north). I spammed militia and built coastal forts everywhere and even strong boats died against my militia. when they were almost dead i sent them into the sea to cause moral drops. I didn't upgrade any cities as the money was spent on diplo stuff and militia.
