What's the fastest you've ever conquered Europe in? Please post screenshots as proof
Here is mine, it's on a VH/VH French campaign. The only problem is I never got the achievement for conquering all of Europe. Anyway, here it is:

wow your good, i could get NEAR this on H/H but theres always one part of every H/H\VH/VH campaigns that it all starts to crumble
In the future can peeps link it to photobucket or a similar hosting site. A lot of people (like myself) don't dl anything as a precaution
I don't have screenshots, but we got done in 70 ish turns in a MP game. Had I turned on my ally I would have beat him in 8 or 9 turns.

Maybe it is because you created protectorates and the game wants you to actually OWN all the Europe.
Or it can be a bug. I also didn't get achievement I fulfil and I did get achievements I didn't fulfil. Its strange
About the topic. I conquered Europe in March 1808. But I did not played on VH/VH. I always play on VH/H.

"When your opponent fears you, then's the moment when you give the fear its own rein, give it the time to work on him. Let it become terror. The terrified man fights himself. Eventually, he attacks in desperation. That is the most dangerous moment, but the terrified man can be trusted usually to make a fatal mistake."
"I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain."
...Why to go fast?...slow it's better...
"Appear weak when you are strong, and strong when you are weak"...SUN TZU

I agree, you'd be raped if the protectorates wage war on you. There are too many. You only get that achievement if you actually own all the regions, I owned all the regions in my GB campaign by 1815 I think.
They are protectorates for a reason.
He means 'fast' as in early year, though. Which seems as to me as though it would need to take longer, as you'd have to avoid auto-resolve, which sounds tedious. Not that I'd bother with VH - I gave that up when I saw a militia unit charge and rout a line infantry regiment. I've been trying to get a human opponent, but that's not working out...
Everyone keeps saying this, except there's one problem with all your theories. I already conquered Europe once, and that was without several things:
1. The best technilogical advantage in the WORLD (including ironclads and the only faction to have the best barracks and artillery factory).
2. I already conquered Europe once against much harder factions, how could some lousy procterates stop me??
3. Unlike the beginning of the campaign which was a financial struggle for me, I have over 5 MILLION florins now at my disposal.
4. I have 5 stacks of the most elite soldiers in the world, and 2 stacks of the most elite navies (Heavy 1st Rates and Ironclads). Those armies would have no problem destroying the rookie (and usually militia) armies of my procterates.
4. Believe me I would have absolutely NO problem at all. Again, you gotta remember I already conquered all of Europe once

If they were humans, then definately. But this is the AI we are talking about. And as I already said, I have infinite funds and better armies.
Plus the only way your theory would truly be effective is if they all formed an ALLIANCE too. Otherwise going to war with me would be simple. Just march across Europe and do what I already did to Prussia, Austria, GB, and Russia. And as I said in a earlier post, the procterate armies are made up of MILITIAS. I don't care how many stacks of militia you have, my artillery and heavily experienced Guard units would destroy them.
Since I already conquered Europe so quickly, I assure you it would be as easy as can be to do it again.
In fact, if it would help prove my point, I will declare war on every one of my procterates on the same turn and defeat them before late December 1812.
Or I could just start a new VH/VH campaign and declare war on everyone the very first turn, and I bet before January 1809 I would own ALL of Europe (No procterates)

Moved to the Gameplay and Strategy forum.
PM me with any questions.
Nice campaign, well done. I'm fairly protectorate crazy myself as it provides me with an okay income without the necessity of actually defending regions. Also what's with all the inordinate hypotheticals? I have played through two full campaigns with multiple protectorates and I am yet to see a single one declare war on me, so why would they all turn on him at once? It wouldn't happen and frankly the fact that they're protectorates doesn't really devalue the effort he put in, as he still had to conquer those regions. Obviously he's unable to get the Steam achievement currently as he doesn't directly control the required regions, but I see no reason to shoot holes through the topic.
