Yes. A good trick is to plan your magistrates ahead, rush your first idea, then go straight to building constables as fast as possible. If you plan on building a lot of ships, press gangs will give you an early game edge. Mid-game money isn't such a worry, but pumping out carracks at half cost lets you kick all kinds of ass, especially as someone like England or Sweden, where you can deny access to your most troublesome enemies using your navy.

Meh, I don't use Carracks much. Barques are where it's at. 8). When playing colonial games, I spam light ships up the wah-zoo.

You know, I have no idea. The trophy system on the PS3 is... odd. Some trophy names leave you wondering.

Wait, Gallo clarified me. Since the character that sacrificed himself was named Pigsy, and he sort of looks like a pig, that's why the trophy's Smokey Bacon.

Or Denmark. I've had good luck with Denmark. I'd be taking the Baltic. :) Western Europe we'd have to see based on who goes where. My friend may want to go Byzantines or Bavaria or something. Watch out if he goes Bayern, he's wrapped up HRE in 40 years before. That would be pretty much game over.

If you went with Castille we'd have to see how well you do. :) You'll need to go the route the AI does and jump into conquering the hell out of the middle east, probably.
