Empire: Total War World Domination Campaign #3 - Prussia 

So glad that there are still people playing this classic game

I'm having fun watching this, and seeing an entirely different way of playing Prussia than I have used. Unlike those factions with a starting position in the Caribbean, where I regard a blitz start is *de rigeur*, as Prussia I've always madly built my economy the first few turns while awaiting the attack by Poland and Austria; then crushed them on the counter attack. I look forward to seeing how your Blitzkrieg works for Prussia. While admitting that I don't use *cold steel* enough with my infantry, I believe you are using it way too much. When your infantry has a fire rate and accuracy advantage (as against militia), and you've got a two-on-one, losses are much reduced by just firing away until they break. Bayonet melees will always be bloody for both sides unless it actually forces a break upon or immediately after contact. Your "Grand Tactical" maneuver at 28:00 is a GREAT way to deal with small marauders, as you stumbled upon. It works great for "cutting out" enemy fleets from port as well. Finally, another tactic for using your cavalry and general, particularly against Armed Citizenry and other low morale *mobs*, is to cycle-charge the cavalry to Break units and follow up with your general to Shatter them.

When a nation declares war on you uncheck the "call allies" box and their allies 100% will not join... that turn anyway

I think you get a diplomatic penalty for taking many settlements in a row and it decays quite slowly. 'Harsh Reputation' and 'Status Quo' are pretty bad traits for absolute monarchies. It is very important to take big cities and Military Governor's Enchampments quickly to prevent the enemy from recuiting good units. And yeah, Empire is very generous with Heroic Victories for some reason. But that last battle definitely was one.

I really want to see what happens the moment your blitzkrieg is halted because of everything. LOL.

And protip: The cutoff point for unit destruction seems to be about 80%. Meaning that if you kill 80% of an enemy unit and win the battle, that unit should die in the campaign map as well.

AHHH I WAS WATCHING YOUR BRITISH CAMPAIGN JUST YESTERDAY

Its funny to see all these regions, cause actually Im from bavaria xd

You Tube love those comments so here we go. And a bit sad you ain't playin on ultra unit scale. And Darth Mod... I'm suuuuure you never heard that before... ;) Still loving the series, alrdy waiting for #4. Cheers!!

What faction will u play next in ETW??

Is there a way you could scale up the HUD? On mobile its really hard to read some stuff.

How do you get to watch the hidden videos?? It says there's 2 on this series 😔

Says a lot about the AI battle map when that army was just running in circles the entire fight and when they finally got into position, they didn't shoot. Not taking away from your strategy, because I probably would have lost the battle - but it's disappointing lol
