Hello!

As the title says, "What is your favorite major power"?

I know the game have been out for a week but you can still have a favorite major power.

My favorite major power right now are Sweden. It is most because I am from Sweden but anyway^^

Russia. It's easy to defeat Persia. Also you can join both Napoleon's and Britain's coalition and turn the tide of war!

Certainly Prussia. I like their Guard units, but lack of core provinces (unlike in Austria) is challenging.

Major power... hmmm... I think I'll go with Ulm, because we all know they are major and they are certainly in MOTE :D

In other words, Spain.

Spain because you can get out of the french Coalition
and your stats are decent enough to slowly maul the African Minors and then
take on France when they are busy.
Forget the English navy, even after I built a total of 30 SOL still got
crushed by nelson

Hmm, i guess my favorite major power would be Prussia. Sweden is just too puny to accomplish anything.

Coming from Munich I love to play Bavaria of course :D


How did you take all those minors without stepping on the toes of Major's guarantees? I have been playing Prussia, and I took a couple of those minors, but had to stay clear of the others when they were guaranteed by 2 or more majors at the same time (France, Austria, Sweden or Russia, in some combination).
