This made me explore AGEOD titles more, the one historical period other than the GREAT WAR that i really like is the 7-year War and Napoleonic Wars but i heard on the forum indirectly that chances of NCP2 is higher than ROP2, so i purchased ROP.
Can i get some starting tips for ROP Gold-
Units,
Artillery- is artillery that much good in Fredrick's age? Napoleon used it brilliantly, but Fredrick was more of discipline and out-flanking.
Anything appreciated.
artillery is an important force multiplier in RoP but not as deadly as in NCP and later. Usually the Prussians will have more artlllery than the Austrians and it acts as a sort of equalizer between the different army sizes as they can inflict losses and disruption in the ranged combat phase.
broadly, with the Prussians you have elite units, lots of cash and a manpower shortage, with the Austrians and French its a case of little cash, lots of manpower and a large not particularly good army. The Russians have a very powerful army (lots of good artillery) but its also very fragile.
Strongly suggest reading Narwhal's 'Learning from Prussia' while some mechanics are different the core concepts remain

What you need to do is to amend the key events like this. The PBEM event chain works fine but not the single player.
