So French side is stronger? Definitely as the FRENCH can summon so many elites to crush Spain and Prussia while you must help destroy th Austrians and Russians while their troops are in Prussia. However you must fund Brazil and the USA to shorten the length of the war. I guess ET had to make France even stronger after losing Netherlands, Denmark and Bavaria |

I guess ET had to make France even stronger after losing Netherlands, Denmark and Bavaria Initially France and Allies are OP AF but after Bavaria and the northern countries join, France is basically screwed. That is if the coalition was able to hold France back enough |

Only French Allies can do that |

Only French Allies can do that No, the musket cavalry literally spawned on a level one city. Not a stable, the city. |

Not a stable, the city. Yep, it’s coded in the files to give the French allies an advantage. Grenadiers can spawn on tier 1 cities in America while Musket Cavalries, ELIs, Siege Artilleries and all the like can spawn on low tier cities in France. But hey, why let a simple unfair advantage that enables you to form the Grandee Armee in less than 10 rounds get in the way of a good crusade? |

How would Portugal be as a choice? I’m trying to beat the French with a coalition country, Austria is very hard as u have to fight on two fronts

I’m playing as Spain rn and it’s not too hard, by round 15 I’ve managed to push the French out of southern France and my allies in Europe are not doing to bad either. |

Actually austria is quite fun and easy(if go well) to play as well we just need to follow these steps:
1,WW1 German tactic (take out ottoman by conquering the Balkans and instanbul)then HOLD YOUR GROUND from the naple and Italy onslaught)
2.together with the Prussian and english force and HOLD YOUR GROUND from the initial France onslaught the counter with russian relief force
3.finish Naples and Italian and control their territory
4.by now the French should have streamroll most of spain, your Portuguese ally will do either hold or biltz,pray that they will do the later so that France will have economic crisis and soon fall from the war of attrition.(the rest of coalition should be out but you only can relied on bravia for the start)
5.faster defeatf France with your strong force( Prussian,russian, English and austrian(you))before France defeat Portugal
6a:send some force to America to fight.
6b.rest of the force go attack north Africa and ottoman remainants
What you should do for the theater that you will reach later and might be to late to save it?
Morocco and egypt :donate them money to hold the ground after you settle the Italian and naple so that they can counter attack
Canadian:is okay for them to lose the capital and Montreal but you have to make them hold on Edmonton and northern part of Canada so that they can have a easier to counter if you donate them
Mexican:donate them consistently to keep their earlier momentum and hold on the barrage from USA
Colombian:at the start they will get rekt by Brazil(WHYYYY!!!)but when they have the cancea,Bogota and the city South of Bogota, donate them to hold their ground until they start counter attack

For me marocco was easy in term coalition is able to hold back France till Bavaria and the northern lands join.
When it happens France is sweeped and Russia recovers.
Beginning: go for Algeria and place the troops around the capital to get it as fast as possible after they join. Then go for the rest.
Next: France should no have taken Spain. In my case the most units were at the other France front and the cities defence was low in Spain.
So I made 3 teams:
1. Team: Spain, should be easy for the first few cities and after that go as fast as possible for taking as much cities as possible without defence.
2. Team: Italy, go for sizilia and then Italy. Problem should only be the ships around Italy. Naples spams units but you should win after a few rounds
3. Team: ottoman, go over the sea in the east. That should take some time since ottoman spams units but after you got the first few cities it is easy.
USA: I supported Canada some times, but Mexican, Brazil and Canada were able to defeat USA almost on their own in my case. But I think that was a little Lucky.
Final:
1. Team: you should have retaken Spain now so go for the rest of France. Britain should join you from the north and Bavaria from the east so France was no problem for me.
2. Team after taken Italy my team was pretty much workless. Since Bavaria, Sweden and Denmark were able to push back ottoman and nearly took Istanbul.
3. After you get the east, Russia and the rest will meet you from the north and ottoman should be beaten very fast.
In the end I won after nearly 55 rounds and it was not very hard. The only problem is wether USA is beaten or not..

So now I played Brazil till round 45. It is very tricky... France was able to win Spain and nearly Portugal. After maybe 40 round France took Berlin and Italy Naples and ottoman were strong and Russia very weak.
Algeria won the South and Britain was no more than a few ships an some units in Europe.
So since that it looked great. But then Bavaria Denmark and Sweden joined an ist was just a case of a few rounds. It is very difficult cause the come together with much force and overrun France, Italy Naples and ottoman in 7 or 8 rounds. Even Russia recovers very fast.
France nearly blows in 4 rounds cause in the east came the late joiners. And from north Great Britain now stronger an able to take some cities.
Portugal also got a few cities from Spain territory but Algeria retook them fast.
Overall in my opinion it is very hard. I think it may be possible if we support ottoman and Naples in order to get Russia weaker at tat time. And you should support Algeria since they will support in central Europe when they won the South.
So Europe is hard since you cant much.
Start brazil:
Not as easy as expected. The infantry and arty generals are strong and we have only a few units with weak economy. Plus I didn't want to place Massena and mahmmut on weak units.
So after a first try with rushing to capital it was much easier to play defensive. At the beginning go for the city at bottom east and take it in one round. If you can't, restart cause otherwise it will tool 3 or 4 rounds cause of spam and we need the units in North.
After beating the generals one by one it was easy to take everything.
But overall at that time usa was beaten and the situation in Europe was bad so I canceled.
I think the other side is easier. Will try soon.

I think Denmark is the best two star country to play as. It joins two turns after sweden normally and once your done with europe spam a riflemen division to take out america. Also concentrate entirely on france, thats how I won
