EW6 conquest records

best75 , I recently did a 16 turn conquest european-war-4.boards.net/thread/10744/france-1798-16-turns







Cheers

I completed 1798 in 26 turns with Poland after 4 tries. I'm gonna upload screenshots and a guide in conflict zones soon.

best75 , Prussia 1812,43 turns tied with Andrei's Sweden 1812 2 star record. With my free time given, i decided to try and beat some records. Failed at that regard. All i can say is that America pisses me off, although it was my fault for not sending any navy to help bombard the American cities to help them capture the last remaining cities. Goes to show how small decisions affect a speed run. Also, before i post the pictures, the reason i picked Prussia for this speed run is because i was able to beat the conquest in around 45-49 turns originally, and i love Prussia and Germany. Shoutout to Clausewitz . Anyway, to the pictures. 



This is my first turn set-up. Alexander and Blucher(in the lancer) would go and capture the Poznan, while my other gens just go capture the undefended french cities. 








Turn 8, Poland falls. Turn 2-8 is the hardest turns for Prussia, since you have to pretty much don't have enough economy to protect all your cities. I sacrificed a city or 2 at this stage. Alexander died at turn 5 despite having a tent, so Blucher took the responsibility of bringing the poles to their knees. I just spam militias to protect as much cities as i can. My other Blucher captures Amsterdam, and prepares to embark towards Greenland.My other units would steamroll Bavaria, then head towards Italy and Naples. I spawn Dabrowski and lan in lancers, and along with Blucher will go straight to Italy. Karl and Massena would go and capture the other french cities on their own. Murat goes towards the ottomans to solo it along with some other units i would spawn from my captured city there.











Turn 25, Rome falls. Most of the French cities are lost. Ottomans are pushed back, and Murat along with my heavy artillery are making their way to the Ottoman lands. Blucher is nearing his destination. 







Turn 29, Italy falls.






Turn 34, Naples falls.







Turn 35, Ottoman empire and Algeria falls. 






Turn 39, Denmark falls.







Turn 41-43. Finally, United States would fall.







Tips to future conquerors : Build a navy or 2 and send it to help Blucher capture denmark. When playing Prussia, i found out that it isn't necessary to donate to Egypt since you'll be capturing Italy and Naples, and Naples and Italy aren't able to send any forces to disrupt Egypt. Focus all your donations to the Americas ASAP so your allies can beat United States earlier. One trick i didn't do is try and capturing the city below Paris if possible, and use your forced march on your naval ships so they can get to Greenland and/or America faster. Capture Corsica when there are still major french cities left, so the French will not spawn their generals in Corsica. Unfortunately, i didn't send any navy to the Americas, which i deeply regret. I could have easily defeated the conquest in less than 40 turns if i did, and if i donated to America much earlier. Beat this record for me pls, since i'll be busy for the week .

Deleted , I managed to improve your record by 1 turn on my flight, thanks to the Ottomans and Spain really stepping it up.






For some reason all my ally's troops are trying to kill Kutuzov instead of capturing Russia's last cities.


Britain fell on turn 26

best75 ,Morocco 1812 43 turns. I didn't have that much screenshots since i was focused on beating the campaign and tunnel visioned, but this would suffice.











Turn 1, position my units to capture the Algerian city. Bribe Italy once, build universities with the remaining resource. Send Nelson and your other Moroccan general towards Greenland








Turn 2, Capture Algerian city, kill the Algerian general, then capture Algiers in the following turns. Steam roll the Algerians until they eventually lose.






 Warsaw loses, the usual






Naple falls turn 27. Italy falls turn 35.





Ottoman loses turn 38





Here i thought United states lost already, but turns out they didn't. 






France falls turn 41. I found it weird that the conquest didn't ended yet. Turns out i got unlucky.





Unlucky indeed. If this didn't happen the conquest would have been done 2 turns earlier.





Finished in 43 turns. Also the highest score for 1812. I would consider this run unlucky, since i captured Naples 8 turns later than my first try (Which was 47 turns, disheartening really, and the French eagle in Europe capitulated at turn 35, but America fell on turn 47). Almost restarted, but i persisted. Turns out this would be the one that would break stoic 's record.

Tips for those who want to beat this record : Bribe Italy once(turn 1),bribe Portugal once(turn 4) , Bribe Prussia once(turn 8). Pay your american allies as early as possible. Don't worry if Sweden seems to lose, Denmark would eventually lose to the combined might of Prussia, Britain and the remaining Swedish forces. Go for Naples, then send some units to the ottomans. One general towards the ottoman lands would suffice, since the Egyptians will help you. 2 generals towards your Austrian allies to help them against the other Ottoman forces.
