    My personal starting strategy involved getting the UK to invade Japan and seize territory for me; Japan's total lack of real naval power early in the game means that the UK can roll over them and force the concession of Kansai or Kyushu, which not only has a gold node, but has a significantly larger population than all of Greece, which means a much bigger tax base.
    Now, the UK will typically throw in its own demands into the deal, but I've found if you go for Kyushu, they'll often end up in another war with several great powers, and will end up peacing out just for your desired concession.
    It's much easier to do than an early invasion of China, since the AI can win on its own.

    FYI, the newspaper is correct. Remember news took a very long time to travel..Remember the Battle of New Orleans? The 1812 war was already won, treaty signed, but word didnt get to New Orleans in time. So hearing about the war AFTER it has already started( and not being informed on recent battles or accomplishments) is sound given the time period...

      shenryyr2 There isn't even any similarity in your play styles so comparing them is for nothing and that is the reason why at least I can enjoy both of your campaigns. It is interesting to see different strategies evolve and they lead to two completely different games, the only similarity is that you are both playing as Greece.. which is a challenge in itself so there is nothing wrong with two brilliant youtubers doing it.

    The game is 100% broken, I declared war to Egypt, England(my ally) demands land, the land costs warscore and the warscore is too high for their demands so I can't get anything from my war...Now, I still get the infamy, I have declared the war, I wanted them to back me only(so no friendly country will support Egypt), and they gave me 25 infamy from my demands that i couldn't fulfil even if I had fully occupied Egypt(25 infamy goes away after 20 years and I was 1880).So if a great power wants land or any other gain, then it should declare the war not the player, in few words my game was ruined, I couldn't continue to do anything, my factories were bankrupt cause the British sell in my country(obviously, I can't raise tariffs)my army was at its best,5% everywhere and my prestige very high, but after England took 4 regions and I was left with 0, but 25 infamy and -70 prestige there was no reason to play, and it makes sense since the game is broken, otherwise the British would behave as they did in the fucking real world, that's the aim.If the game is still.in the market, then in paradox have no shame for what they deliver in exchange for money, and real money, not like their market in their game, cause in that market they would be bankrupt too!
