A Swedish Campaign report

This is an excellent post Jack :)
I have a few questions for you :
- When you changed to a republic, did you take a serious relation hit with all surrounding monarchy ? Did they all took a "stability hit" when it occured (higher unrest) due to the exemple their people have ? Was it the reason Denmark attacked you ?
- Can you now face a counter-revolution from the inside ? (revolt again with monarchists this time). or could opposing monarchy invade you and ask you to surrender in exchange for a change of government ?
- When you say you recruit an army next to Riga, does it mean you had to have a settlement there ? does this confirm the "fears" from fans saying that if you dont have multiple provinces you cant recruit multiple armies at the same time ?

Thankf for any answers Jack :)

Thanks, I'm considering playing with Sweden initially also and this provides some insight into Sweden and the overall game.

I understand you can raid trade routes, did you engage in any of that?

I'm also curious about becoming a republic. Can you research democracy instead of having a revolution? Once you become a republic are there elections? If so what happens if the prime minister loses an election?

Have you had occasion to build a fort yet, Jack? I’m curious how forts might affect campaigns.

Good info. Jack.

Some questions:

- What specific technologies did you research - and did you gain a battlefield advantage from them?
- Did you send too big a force to Iceland in hindsight? That being responsible for you being outnumbered by the Danes? - OR -
- From a quantity vs quality standpoint, were your troops of higher quality than the Danes and is that why you were outnumbered?

Thanks.

Historically i think the Swedes at the time often fought outnumbered as they had a highly proffesional army, not sure if thats the actual reason though.
