What would you sell?

Austria=Prussia my bad, in guides.

And yes Ottoman campaign guide is at alot of sites. It was posted by a turkish site and has been translated elsewhere, including TW forum center.

I think for me, I'd probably give up everything but a city..i'd just rather lose it in battle then give it up..even if it cost me.

I would give up techs and money but never a city. Only if I could get something really good back for that city would i consider trading it, like military techs or an alliance.

I guess if it was vital sure.

Still I'd rather give up a few provinces in the Colonies before any of my main euro cities.

That's the reason I'm partially tempted to capture something in India or North America, not cause I want to stay there, but just so I have a bargaining chip later down the line.

Good point, colonies might provide that ace in the hole when you are in desperate need of an alliance, or new techs. The Prussian Report has me very anxious about ETW, especially with all the diplomatic manoeuvrings that is seemingly to be had!

I believe territory is probably the most valuable commodity to be had, and I think the AI thinks that way too. Your plan could very well be sound, Polemists!

Where is the option "Your body"?

Aren't there factions with only one city on Europe? Colonies would have to be the main territory trade things.

I sometimes take cities specifically so I can trade them in for better ones, or use them to get a really good alliance or trade deal. Just take somehwere you don't want or need and then use it as a big shiny bargaining chip .

Which makes me ponder what to take..


I really want the Carribean for my own, so that's out.

India if I can take something I'd sell, only because I doubt I can hold a hindu, muslim nation for very long.

North America is tempting but a real fighting ground and i'm not sure I could get that many troops over.

Maybe something in the ivory coast..or another trade route.....hmm.

I guess the most susceptible nation to strike is spain...but early on I fear spain's reltation would be unkind
