It's 1900 now and I control all the states I need to for the Byzantine Empire, but I just can't get into GP status. My normal plan of encouraging craftsmen in states with a lot of industry to get my industry score up isn't working. I really wanna form the Byzantine Empire. Any advice?

Take out Italy, or just screw over any global power? That is if you can handle those war campaigns.

if you have more military power then *insert GP here*, go for a humiliation Casus Belli. if there is a GP with more industry, try and secure a state from them. if there's one with more military power, get an ally and force a Cut Down to Size on them.

I don't think I can do much to Russia with my current GP ally, the U.K. Also, Russia has a total score of 800.
Me?
I have 354.
I don't know what I did wrong, but Switzerland has a higher score than me in everything. Including industry, which has been my primary focus for the entire game. Maybe I have too many factories and I should've been upgrading instead of building?

I guess I could try to humiliate A-H, but their alliance with France would make it unlikely.

Take some inspiration from the ancients and colonize the Mediterranean? Sicily first, of course, it's one of the more powerful states in the entire game.

Who is everyone going to play as first in Man the Guns?


I might go with either the Soviets or a minor just to get a quick grasp on the new fuel and fleet systems then probably play a game as the Brits or Mexico.


I disagree.
