This will make securing Riga and the Livonian Order much easier for the player. Neva and Ingermanland are the top priority, since possessing them will deny Russia access to the Baltic. If independence was achieved before Novgorod was completely absorbed, then the player should take the opportunity to attack the weaker Novgorod for key provinces before they have to contend with the much stronger Muscovy for the same provinces. Allying Poland can provide a way for you to seize Muscovite territory, and vice-versa. It is recommended to play one against the other. If dominance over the Baltic Sea is desired, then one of the biggest obstacles that Sweden will have to overcome is Muscovy / Russia, the other being Poland / Commonwealth. However, this requires releasing Finland and selling provinces, so it is usually not worth it. If you are going to expand into Germany, it is possible to join the HRE to avoid wars with the Emperor. You instead want a short truce, then a second war where you can gobble up the rest of Scandinavia. Any territory you take will upset your allies, and lengthen the truce timer. Expect the Ottomans, or other great powers to intervene, but so long as you have all 5 allies, it won't matter, you only need Denmark to have low enthusiasm, and 15 warscore to win, and you'll get that so quickly that the Ottomans won't be able to stop you. Once you declare war, your army and navy force limits should go up by 4-6. Note that this may put you above your diplomatic relations limit.įighting the war is a simple matter of waiting for your allies to show up and win it for you, don't fight without huge terrain bonuses, and don't try to take more than independence. Early supporters that you can trade in for larger ones later can be Novgorod, Scotland and the Teutonic Order. There is no risk of being integrated, you should stay above 50% liberty desire. It can take 20+ years to get 5 large allies, but it will be worth it. England, France, Burgundy, Austria, Brandenburg, Poland, and Muscovy will all support independence if you are patient and maintain +100 relations with them until they flip to friendly. Securing supports for independence is far easier than securing large alliances once you are free, so don't declare until you have 5 very large allies.
