Luckily, Britain had them preoccupied with a naval war. I didn't have the funds at the time to station an army in Wurttemburg and they could have easily wreaked havoc in my western territories. While they didn't declare war on me and I invaded them in my campaign, they kept an army stationed in Alsace-Lorraine 24-7, which was constantly worrying me. Why such a small army, you may ask? Well I feel like sending statements sometimes, and I wanted them to know that it doesn't matter how much they outnumber me, Prussia is better. I sent an army with 5 line infantry and a cannon to capture Amsterdam to shut them up after they declared war. keep an army stationed in Cologne, UP is extremely aggressive toward Prussia for some reason. For the most part, I finished off Poland-Lithuania and Austria quite easily with all the money I was making, and eventually I came to dominate all of mainland Europe, besides Russia and the Ottomans, who assisted me in taking down Austria and Spain. I prefer to keep them as a buffer with Sweden, since keeping an army stationed their is impractical from an economical standpoint. I eventually kept good relations with Courland, even though we were at war.
That can cost more than the province they're sitting on.Īnyway, hope this helps. They still cost a lot of money - just 5 units is 1k gold a turn.

Those soldiers are not cheap, even with that badass 68 year old Military Secretary that makes your troops 10% cheaper, plus your King's 10% bonus.
Eventually, once the populations settle down, send your troops with experience to the east where Poland and Austria will eventually declare war in the next few turns, while disbanding any extra unneeded units. you mean we get all of Germany without going to war with anyone outside of Germany? ITS A MIRACLE!ĭestroy schools where you need to in order to prevent uprisings, and hopefully you've researched carbines now to train dragoons for policing purposes.
Invade Wurttemburg, Bavaria and Hannover - you should be at war with them if you selected "call allies to help." Notice their allies - every German state and no major states. Invade Westphalia with one of the armies. Split up your forces into 4 fairly even armies. Once you feel like you have enough troops, send them to the furthest west point possible in Saxony and hit end turn. Spend four to five turns building as many line infantry as possible each turn in Brandenburg and Saxony. Send your army that invaded Poland to the town in between Gdynia and Königsberg (from there it can join defense with either Gdynia or Königsberg in the event of an invasion). Sometimes you have to scratch the alliance out of the agreement, no biggie. Make peace+trade agreement+alliance with Poland, and give them Poland back in exchange. Send your weaker army in East Prussia to Gdynia (should be an easy fight) and send your stronger army with the general and the new 6 line infantry to take Poland. I also made an alliance and trade agreement with Courland, and trade agreements with Maratha, GB, and UP, as well as all the surrounding nations I could trade with.Īround turn three invade Saxony, call allies to help. Build whatever you want, just be careful not to spend too much. :Pįirst two turns, churn out 6 line infantry in Königsberg and a few in Brandenburg as well (optional). That's the only economic advice I'm giving you. To be a good general saves you money: the fewer the troops you need the less money war will cost you. Prussia's worst enemy is itself - don't train any more troops than you need. Warning: this is for military, not economic, purposes only, and as such do not blame me if your economy goes down the drain from excessive military investment and you run out of money fast. By declaring war on Westphalia, you can avoid a major conflict while consolidating control over all of Germany in a single turn by following my instructions. That leaves Westphalia, who is allied to exactly who you want them to be allied to - Hannover, Wurttemburg, and Bavaria. A quick look at the alliances of nations near you, you see Hannover is allied with Great Britain (an eventual ally and trade partner), Saxony and Courland are protectorates of Poland-Lithuania, Poland-Lithuania is allied to Russia, and Bavaria and Wurttemberg are allies of Austria. I found an excellent way of using the opening alliances in central Europe to Prussia's advantage. Opening invasion moves for the proud and mighty Kingdom of Prussia.
