I'm starting to play mp game soon as Portugal and I was hoping to get a little help on:

1) Dealing with Castille
2) Alliances
3) Goals early on
4) Mp diplomacy

There will be human players for nearby majors like England, France and Castille aswell. I havent player EU III mp ever before.

Thanks.

England will most likely have a vastly larger navy then you, while castille will have a much larger army. Unless the castille player is nice, you mostly likely will lose your European position. The advantage to playing Portugal is the ability to quickly colonize. They have the missions to discover the islands leading to the new world. Your best choice might be to flee to the new world. Meaning moving your capital. I would advise on learning where is best to colonize in the new world if you don't already know.

Carribean (sugar, coffee etc.), South America (coffee and other valuable resources that I forgot) & Central America (gold, but it's not in such enermous supply to make a difference, so this should be the last target). South America, IMO, is the best option for Portugal, you can also go for the nations located in western side of South America, they got gold as well.
