Hey, I have been playing etw now for several hours perhaps days and am wondering if it is better to just take over a faction completely destroying it or force them to surrender and become a protectorate.
In my first game I just went mad conquering territorys but they all eventually revolted. However they do bring in the cash.
Then in my next one I played france again and had wuttemburg, westaphila, and savoy as my protectorates. I didn't get much money probably because they all had two full stack armies with only one city.
Any Thoughts?
