The biggest tip is to use the shift-consolidate feature. I contributed 90,000 to that, my allies brought that up to about 170,000 and my tech/morale advantage started wrecking the smaller OPM armies fighting with Austria and making them drop out. The biggest battle we fought was in Ravensburg and was around 400,000 soldiers combined. Of course, I took on a lot of debt too, but I have a much stronger economy and was able to pay off all but 4 of my loans. I've been keeping an eye on their replenishment and they must not have taken Quantity because after 8 years of peace I'm back up to about 80% manpower and they're around 40% or so. We'd already had a series of brief border skirmishes and proxy wars (declaring on an ally of theirs to get at the main target) and finally it was just time to duke it out.Īfter I beat them and took five of their provinces, apparently that was enough to trigger a coalition against me and I had to release three of those provinces as independent nations, but I accomplished my goals in the end to drive Austria into bankruptcy and completely depleted their manpower. The time finally came where we were two of the superpowers and they were directly threatening my expansion into Central Europe and when I saw that Austria was swallowing the OPMs, it was time to rumble because both of us were getting too big. I had taken all of traditional France and Austria had allied with Poland and was eating the OPMs one by one. I would have lost if I hadn't gotten creative with mercenaries to distract some of the Austrian mega stacks as well as scorching my provinces with forts so the attacking armies took ludicrous attrition.īy the time I captured Vienna, I had about 20,000 manpower left and every country attacking me had 0. I matched Austria for manpower give or take 5,000 and when you counted the manpower of the OPMs, I was outnumbered by about 50,000. Last night, I had a massive 70 year long war against Austria and 10 other minor countries in the HRE as France. What I've done is keep a standing army at my max land forcelimit and station them on forts in preferential terrain and play defense while I send groups of mercs out to attack and raid, letting my enemy wear themselves out fighting mercenaries so when they get to my regular troops and forts they're hurting. Until you're able to capture more territory, take Administration or Offensive ideas, both of which give -25% mercenary costs. Also try improving your provinces with military points - each point gives you another 250 manpower. This immediately gives you 50% more manpower, and the ideas in that group really benefit you.
