I succumbed to the N:TW features.

I started a Prussian game and tried to steamroll the German states, but Austria intervened and almost won the war for themselves. But, the French finally marched against the Austrians and are helping put pressure on them. If I can win a few more battles I should be in good shape to change the tide of the war. Silesia and Prague are hotly contested zones. Not to mention the Russians keep trying to take Poland...
