Prussian campaign

It was something he saw as a video also. It is not unlikely the Dutch had other allies.

He seems to be having enough trouble. I don’t think this is exactly a winning campaign he has here.

Well I think in general when your entire nation rebels and you side with the loyalists you in a uphill battle.

Just comparing the Prussian to the Swedish campaign, it seems easier to side with the rebels then the loyalists. Probably do to fact rebels spawn with a large army and your army does not.

He went with a mainly diplomatic strategy. Nothing wrong with that, but he lacked the muscle he needed to hold hungary and convince the other nations to back off. When his army starts to grow he seems to do better.

Just my thoughts.

CA have probably geared it so revolutions favor the revolutionaries, because social change is sort of a theme of Empire's.

Have we had any news yet of a Revolution of the upper class aimed at putting a monarchy on the throne? That actully interests me more than Republican Revolutionaries.

[Greyblades]

It will probably be like a republican revolution just with more advanced troops (they are rich after all).

It seems you can only go half way backwards. If I read it right here is how it works.

The way up
Monarchy-Parlimental Monarchy-Middle Class Revolt
Parlimental Monarchy-Republic-Lower class revolt

The way back
Republic-Parlimental Monarchy-Middle Class revolt
Parlimental Monarchy-Monarchy-Upper class revolt


To the best of my knowledge, there is no way to skip a rung of the ladder. The lower class won't revolt until after the middle, the upper won't revolt until after they've stepped back from a republic.

The only way you may be able to go from one to another quickly is if there was a war of sucession, but once you are a repubic to best of my knowledge there is no war of sucession.

From most of what we read it seems the people are far more happy in a republic, so it seems less likely it will revolt. Though as you can tax different classes, I assume if you are a republic and want to go back the quickestway is to tax the heck out of the nobility.
