Princess unlock?

Did you unlock a princess in an earlier conquest?

Yeah try again. Once you get 250 years, you will get both sophia and fatimah. Try playing as the hre though, as it is much easier. Its very boring but doable. Try using Kanue’s guide. What generals did you use?

Nice. I forgot to mention to make a save 1 turn before finishing conquest. That way you can get multiple princesses from the same conquest. However fatimah isn’t very good, so you ain’t missing out on much. Do it next time though. Once again I apologize.

However, please don’t disgard Fatimah immediately. She can jump start your economy in missions and in conquests, as she has economic master which doubles your city income, and architecture which allows you to upgrade anything you want for a cheap price. If you get rid of her, its no big loss though, as you can get the Polish general Koscuisko. Give him the Napoleonic code and some boots, and he will be faster and better than fatimah can ever dream of being.

Picton is a nice choice. I recommend getting and artillery or cavarly general first, but you can use him for a while. You have sophia know so you won’t need an artillery general for a while. I suggest you purchase Golitsyn or Dumuoriez next.

Now the next two princesses you want to get are Sakurako and Isabella, and maybe Kate. You can get Sakurako, as well as Kate, the only naval general worth getting. Don’t purchase a naval general as Kate is much easier than any of them. If you want Kate, you have to play in the American conquests. Since you were able to beat Russia in 250 years, I guarantee that you will be able to get her really soon. In fact you could probably get her right now.

As for Sakurako, she is ok. She isn’t spectacular, so don’t upgrade any of her abilities. However, she is also worth keeping around, as she can be on any unit, has lvl 4 movement, and 4 training stars. You can regroup Fatimah if you want to get her, however a strong and fast economic general like Koscuisko is invaluable for me, as it allows me to spawn my generals in a reasonable time period. You get her from 350 years ruled in Asia. This is also much easier to obtain from either America 1776 or 1812.

Now, Isabella. She is the best general you are looking forward too, as she has very strong output, but most importantly, she is the fastest general in the game on artillery. Mine moves around 4 hexes now, but I heard she can reach 5 hexes movement. However, both her and Sakurako are challenging to get, so I advise you check out Kanue’s guide for HRE. You have to be quick, and be able to fight on multiple fronts. It takes around 40 turns to get her so start practicing. There is also another guide that supports Kanue’s guide, and allows you to get a Double Guards Cavarly turn 1.

Don’t expect to get Sakurako and Isabella easily. Prepare a strong team, and keep grinding till you make it. However, you can probably get Kate very very soon. After getting Isabella, go for Lan (550 turns asia (Around 23 rounds in 1812)) and Victoria (850 years europe (Turn 31 resources: 9000 gold, 3000 steel, 9000 food).

Good luck. I felt I owed you this much since I forgot to tell you to save a turn before finishing conquest.

Use the save again, and click rule europe. I used Britain 1812. Its pretty easy, if you hide Duckwood behind the austrians. Its pretty fast, and you have strong generals. America 1776 is an option as well, just make sure you use the given generals (Washington), to kill howe and more importantly, Collingwood before pushing the austrians. Britain 1812 is really fast though. I would try Britain 1812. If you can handle it, its the fastest conquest.

Yeah no problem man. Just don’t get rid of fatimah too quickly as I never really truly appreciated what she was capable of. She isn’t capable of fighting, but if you are playing as a two star country, she can jump start your economy.

You are pretty close I think. I think she unlocks at 600. Just keep grinding man. Once you get her, then get Lan. You can skip victoria honestly. She is gud, but idk if she has a place in the final 4.
