X. NEVER SURRENDER, OUR CAPITOL IS BORNHOLM, IF NECESSARY BUILD AN ARMY THERE AND LET THEM SIEGE US DOWN, THEY WILL NEVER BE ABLE TO WIN BORNHOLM, IF YOU GET INTO A CLOSE BATTLE ON BORNHOLM JUST SORTIE THE FORT(IT'S FREE ~15k TROOPS). ANYONE ATTACKING US IS MORE LIKELY TO GO BANKRUPT THAN SIEGING US DOWN 100%.

CURRENT WAR
0. If possible make a white peace with Venice.
1. Our income is quite decent atm due to subs from Persia, he promised he'd continue funding us so we should be fine. Repay as many loans as you can when the game begins.
2. We have two stacks, DO NOT combine them. As you can see we have 3 vassals/marches, they are set to attach to our cannon stack, this way we preserve our manpower, and only reinforce battle with other stack when it's needed.
3. The key is to control Ruppin, it's the wargoal and if they are allowed to capture it they can force us out of the war!
4. Try to secure Magdeburg and Potsdam forts, Austria isn't in fighting shape at the beginning of the save, try to rush those force Sweden has enough army to cover us.
5. After those forts are secured focus on sieging down Poland and forcing him out, don't be greedy in peace deal Russia is also pressuring us not to take Polsih land(more like pressuring us not to give any land to Sweden, talk to Swedish player about this before making peace with Poland).
6. Austria is completely out of manpower he will need some time to rebuild his cannons as he is completely out of them atm, Poland has 30k manpower left so if he fights 2-3 battles with high casualties he will have to switch to 100% merc army and we can bankrupt him.
7. If for some reason war starts going badly for us, keep in mind THEY CANNOT stay in this war as long as we can, regardless of our current war exhaustion, they will have issues with huge debt. We have ridiculous attrition and defensive bonuses it's gonna be extremely painful for them to siege us down.
8. If the war is won DO NOT take anything but our cores from Austria or Poland, only cores and as much money as you can, also give something to Sweden.


DIPLOMACY
1. Hesse is our enemy no matter what, if he offers alliance accept it, he is gonna betray us but who gives a fuck. We are in no rush to kill him, he can never hope to outscale us.
2. Austria is also our mortal enemy, no deals with him.
3. We don't really give a fuck about Poland or forming Prussia, IMPORTANT: Forming Prussia is the last resort, it will draw all the attention to us, so avoid doing it.
4. Neutral/friendly towards Netherlands, avoid fighting him unless you have to.
5. Sweden is currently our ally, doubt he will betray us before Poland and/or Austria is dead.
6. France is potential secret ally, same goes for Byzantium but don't trust Byzantium.
7. Stay away from potential Italian-French wars, we don't really care who wins there.
8. Don't declare offensive wars until Austria is dead, once he dies focus is on Hesse and securing Northen German territories.
9. Sweden holds some of our cores, I couldn't care less for that, if he wants to keep our alliance I'm fine with it.
