Dealing with Austria

[gogis]

I reread that several times... 70k men? How it's possible to be THAT low, whats your force limit?
I seriously can't remember game, in years, when I dont have 100% filled force limit 1600+
You should have atleast thrice as much, or you build wrong

I've never really seen an Austria that's nearly this strong anyway... In many cases, it's a force to reckon with in early to mid game. But it usually gets out-expanded by Bohemia later on and gets its ass kicked, signified by the release of Styria and Tirol.

Speaking of France. In my latest game as Tuscany, it was pretty bad-ass up to mid game where it'd survive multiple dog-piles and still manage to kick everyone's (including my) asses. Unfortunately, a very stubborn Austria (plus the stupid combat A.I.) finally did it in. And of course, Austria then got raped by Blobhemia some devades later.
