12 years later and we're still playing and watching people play this game. A game full of bugs and bad AI. And yet it's probably in my top 3 favorite games ever and I have more hours logged in this game than I care to mention. So can you imagine how amazing this game would be if CA fixed it, remastered it, or better yet...EMPIRE II

@SonsOfLorgar 2 жыл бұрын

Empire II with a longer time span, from pike and shot of the entire renaissance to the late Victorian era with smokeless powder, breech loading artillery, rifles and early machineguns while the tactics and strategy has not yet developed to make full use of the emerging military industrial complex.

Prussia turn 1 tip, You can get military ally and give military access to Hannover and they will pay 5500 for it too. And they always say yes to every early game war that I invited them to. If you don't ally with them they instead will go to war with you eventually if they see the chance to do so.

Prussia and the Dutch campaign are my two favorite campaigns in ETW. They are in the same part of Europe, but the campaigns unfold in an entirely different way. Prussia being a TOTAL WAR scenario in Europe surrounded by enemies in a perpetual war with everyone, and the Dutch campaign being friendly with everyone, expanding their overseas colonies in the Americas and India while keeping great relations with most of Europe.

Another neat thing about playing as Prussia or any other faction that is a total monarchy, you can fire and replace your ministers as many as you have replacements. Their accolades determine what department they should take charge of. Early on prussia's weak point is having just one trading port. All it takes is one blockade to really screw with your income

One of the things I really love about Empire is that if you compare it to Shogun 2: Yari cavalry will have cavalrymen in armour that's beautiful works of art. His lance is magnificently crafted with beautiful intricate details. Meanwhile the Uhlans... They look like a guy with a fancy robe, and he's carrying a long stick with an iron spike on it. It looks like actual people lining up to kill other actual people. It doesn't look so gamey or fairy-tale-ish. It looks real in a way Shogun doesn't.

Been looking forward to another Empire series. Remember in this game, different factions have better or worse infantry, cavalry and artillery. So whilst you may outnumber their cavalry with yours, I seem to remember Prussia having weak cavalry which might explain the loss. I believe they have one of the strongest infantry starting units. Note: Sweden is NOT an easy enemy to knock off, they also have really strong troops. Good luck in the playthrough, I have not done Prussia yet, still strugling with Ottomans on extra difficult (easily the hardest campaign in the game).

And, Sweden is also protestant so would make a good ally vs the russians, Danes and eventually France and England.

Medieval2 has interesting siege mechanics. Shogun 2 has the most interesting tech tree system and campaigns. And Rome2 has the most epic feeling campaigns.

As Prussia I usually goes (perhaps wrongfully now when I look at your gameplay) after Austria first. I find that they are more hostile and inclined to declare war on you, even though you are at war with P-L as they often are as well where as if you attack Austria P-L usually stays quite loyal to you (even without diplomatic relations) .

First things first Vulcan, get rid of unnecessary troops, militia, gendarmerie cavalry, and pikemen out. Focus on your economy, the greatest economy that can build with incredible speed is Prussia. build roads, replace the coaching inn for a church in east Prussia, its cheaper and keeps the populace happy. Diplomacy of course with all possible neighbors including Saxony, remember, you want to make money not risk it. start recruiting infantry after 5-6 turns you'll turn $8000 gold into $20000 in a few turns. then there is no stopping the might of the Prussian Empire. Works on Normal Normal Difficulty, on Hard hard other nations tend to attack after 3-4 turns, on very hard very hard, other nations attack almost after 2 turns. no way to really build economy on higher difficultyquick and fast

@kellymcbright5456 2 жыл бұрын

@@VulcanTotalWar No exploit, just using the maths behind it. A unit looses an XP degree if its reinforced by 100% soldiers of at least one lower XP degree. Example: You have a unit with 2 chevrons of strength 60. If you reinforce it by 60 men of 1 chevron, it will have just 1 chevron afterwards. Thus You have to keep in mind some rules for reinforcement. If you reinforce by men of -1 XP, dont have less than 61 men in the unit. If you reinforece by -2 XP, don't have less than 91. If you reinforce by -3 XP, dont have less than 106. So make sure in battles: no high-ranked unit must fall below 61. Get them out if they come close to that. After the battle do not take auto-fill-up-buttons but do it manually: I use to have some low-ranked units just for the sake of reinforcing the good units. And then reinforce the 9 chevrons by 8 chevrons, the 8 chevrons by 7 chevron, the 7 chev. by 6 chev a.s.o. The low-ranked 0 or 1 chev may completely dissolve by that actions, since i can train them. If you have none at less than 61, all chevs are preserved and you'll finally come to an army of 8 and 9-chevron guys. Who are really strong in battle.
