Empire Total War Stories

Post your Empire Total War Story here.
I'll start off with mine:

Oh. I'll talk about my grand campaign on Empire Total War then. Smile

I'm Russia, playing the long campaign, which means I'm supposed to controll 30 regions by the end of the 18th century.

As my relationship with Sweden was not-so-good (which it's not in real life either. I'm Seriously shocke ) I started off by giving away my largest, size-ways, but also one of my least populated regions to Sweden. Their attitude towards me is now "friendly" and I've avoided a war in both north and south which would have been impossible to cope with.

My war in south was mainly about a rising tension between me and the military force the Ottoman Empire, and some smaller states as Georgia (And some others I can't remember. I'm Seriously shocke ), but them states all went down with small and swift attacks. My, or Pyotr I as I'm called's, Russian Empire now Bordered to Sweden in North and Persia in south. This is when the annoying part starts. I wanted to focus on the Ottoman Empire, but Persia kept declaring war, I managed to avoid it by giving them technology and paying them small amounts of money to stop them. I was fed up with it. So I decided to launch a massive attack; two armies consisting of 1000+ soldiers each. Persia was doomed.

After conquering Persia my empire now bordered to the Mughal Empire, so I made an alliance with them. Beating Persia also gave my economy a boost, as I know could expand my trading with other nations with two new docs. I also made an alliance with Austria who had conquered Poland-Lithuania and now bordered to me.

I'm now in year 1725-26 and I have the 3rd highest prestige I think, only behind UK and Prussia. My military and economy is doing great, my naval is not doing very great, though. Laughing (I'm having problems with big nations I'm not at war with blocking my trade route. Mad )

Ok let me talk about my own British Empire. World domination.
In 1700, British start to focus on the coast trade. We start to build trading ship in 1700 - 1712. So we have alot of money to develop the buildings armies and techs. We allied with UP MC Prussia Port Sweden. And the Spainish started the war with UP. I have port about 15-19 trading point and more than 5 navy, 1 America full team army, 4 Europe full team army, but we dont attack spain at that time. And we focus on the 13 colonies mission. We started attack the Plain something and destory it. We also get Cuba and the whole caribbean.

At 1730 we destroyed the french and the new french in america. Then 13 colonies join us we gain alot of regions. But at the same time Spain destroyed our allien UP, then we sent 2 full team army to get back the Amsterdam. UP destoryed and we get UP land in India and start to attack the Mugual. We build a East India Comany Navy and Army and start the expand in India. But Spain get the Port and we get back this region too. And we have get the Spain captial two time and exchange with the other land in europe. And Spain only have the Madrid and i have 4 full team surround the last land of Spain.....
To be con.....

Wow! What difficulty do you play on?
Keeping all these regions all over the world without letting your economy suffer certainly must be a tough task. Have you had a lot of trouble with strikes and rebellions?

H/H i only have rebellions on india inland

Hmm... well, seems like your doing a good job, beating France and all.

not at all i left Spain behind

hey peter!

sup mane!

i started to play empire again... and finally figured out you can do a "conquer the world campaign"... and i started as the maratha confederacy, i conquerd(mispelled?) all of india in 10 turns, and now i have moved into the middle east.

My Empire total warr battles are super duper boring..... Like, I would get attacked by 20,000 units in like 3 - 4 turns and i win, I prefer my Rome:Total war battles.... Im usally stuck to fight over 2 million units.... takes me like 2 hours.....>.>

I got to fight 1 billion units on Empire:Total war against the....... French, They hated me big time, but i still stopped them, But yeah, My Rome:Total war battles are much bigger and longer, more interesting as well.

i love the epic battles from all the total war games. my favorite is still japan:total war. i played as the oda with an army of about 800 against three allies totaling around 2400. i completely raped the first two guys with my primarily samuri archer army, but the last guy came in with 700 men vs my 48 extremely tired archers...

I remember one time there was like 3000 units attacking my main city with only like 200 units.... all he would do is send 2 - 3 battle rams... they would get destroy then he retreats =/

Waiting for the Napoleon:Total War
Just cant wait CA to release it
And i didnt play GC for a long time already, I force on the multiplayer battle

OH my new steam name: .:GB:.Duke of Wellington

In my first long campaign(the one from 1700-1799) I was Prussia. And by 1760 or 1770 something i had all of the Americas.

Congrats

Thanks! That probably was my most epic campaign. also the weirdest....(i mean Prussia having colonies in America!? The one they had in south America for a few years doesn't count lol)

how old is this game?

Like 2 years old.

You guys will love this -.-
I was playing as... Spain I believe. My first five turns I gather my army jack up taxes yada yada.. I go to attack a rebel city. The turn before I attack, my army turns into a rebel army and comes back to take my capital and a few turns later france declares war and kils me. I was dead by turn 15 and I didnt even attack anyone :/

Sucks. =/

The campaign I've been playing lately, or at least lateliest, as I haven't been playing at all lately, has been a long campaign with The Netherlands (can't quite remember what they're called in the game?). I don't remember what has happened so far in detail, but my nation's economy is by far the best. I trade a lot, especially with the Mughal Empire (I think), and I have several colonies especially in North America and in the Caribbean. I sold those I had conquered in the States back to Spain again.

The best way to get friends is to buy them, my philosophy anyway.

Well usually I can dominate after takin a couple rebel villages and booming.. But I hadnt even takin one and I died.. Buying friends doesnt help then :/

how boring! play dawn of war
