Usually the Ottomans will offer peace, and the terms are very good. Take all European provinces and wait it out for a bit. With the Ottomans' European holdings isolated, the pickings are easy. Since Maceonia is a plains province, and having more cavalry offers a huge bonus, the ensuing battle should be easy.Īs the years go by, make sure to keep reinforcing your army, and try your best to maintain naval superiority in the Aegean and Bosporus. Not only that, but you should have exponentially more cavalry than that puny force in Macedonia. This will prevent the huge two-thirds of the Ottomans' army from reinforcing the puny one-third. Move half to the Bosporus, and half to the Aegean. Because of your situation, I say it's best not to worry about inflation, and set your treasury slider to half-way, or even maximum.īefore you declare war on the Ottomans, and after you've drained your treasury to create that army I was talking about, split your navy. Try to avoid taking a loan, but do so if you must.
Use every ducat you have and create a mostly, if not entirely, Cavalry army. The difference is, however, that forty of these units are in Anatolia, the remaining twenty in Europe. The Ottoman Empire, on the other hand, has sixty units. You have twenty units, all in Thrace (where else?). In order to resurrect this empire at death's door, we must strike a quick, decisive, and most importantly early blow to the Turkish scourge, the Ottoman Empire. However, a skilled player can bring this great nation back from the brink and back on to the world stage very quickly, if said player takes advantage of the early game situation as much as possible. It controls only the provinces of Thrace and Morea (In the AGCEEP, Morea is a vassal, making Byzantium a one-province minor), and has barely an army to speak of. The Byzantine Empire of 1419 is an oxymoron, by that I mean it isn't an empire.
