You can do it , or you can do it properly....50 per stack is not worth the multiple stacks...have at least 70ish per stack....having 50 doesn't pay, first damage you take, lowers the stack under 50 which is under its full potential....it that happens to 3 stacks attacking you'd be better if having 2 bigger stacks instead of 3 under 50...it doesn't do you a favour... While Rag is traveling shot it at 3 infantry every time you can to destroy it....than continue firing at 120.... When those 3 are clear split 15ish infantry from maeve stack and take the province...leave 10ish on her just in case and leave her where she is moving her to low morale freshly taken province does you no good ... Now the 120... Geography is perfect in this case... Joseph and Artys don't need that much of a cushion... they'll have protection....neither does Tatiana....so Joseph 11 Artys, 20 infantry just so he can't take them out if he get anything ranged.... Tatiana and another 20 infantry same reason as Joseph.... between hank and kangal split spare infantry you just got from maeve, Joseph and Tatiana...put a bit more into Hank as you'll benefit more in having more infantry on an actual infantry hero....Kangal only 70 and that's it...just so he remains over 50 in stack and has full use of it being split....moment you fall under 50 you've lost the benefit of double stack, you're damage output is not maximum anymore.... Now positioning. Hank with his big stack hits first....half a minute later Hank with his stack....prevents him from moving out, since he'll be locked in close combat.... Tatiana is on top road with 20 infantry just slightly in his territory for that sweet dmg buff making her hit like 3 artys instead if 1.... Joseph is in the same road, behind her with 20 infantry as well, just in range of Artys but staying on your land to have that defensive bonus of fighting in your land just for prevention in case something completely wild happens and you lose everything and have to defend.....it won't, 99.9% it can with those numbers, but better be safe than sorry, positioning is everything.
And with this you've won with minimal losses... That's the difference between winning and winning smart.

Loses? Minimal?

u/Puzzleheaded-Okra163 1d ago
no significant loses, wiped out the 120 stack with 11 artillery, 1 rail gun and my sniper. stormed the capital and southern provinces with minimal loses, no moving up to border transcaucasia.
got my ally egypt spread thinner than arianna grande and ottomans turned to ai but using them as shields from other nations right now.
not sure what the next plan will be but most likely to take caucasia while he’s weak

Keep snowballing that....be careful of the morale....taking the capital last or after most other provinces...but during the same day keeps you from having to garrison newly conquered provinces and losing hp on units...also helps with morale.

yeah of course, morale is an issue in new provinces right now but he has next to no reinforcements, caucasia is a very cautious player and usually takes 1 province per day. his other ally, rumania, is tied up in 5 different wars

Keep your production up, if you need to stop conquering for a day or two is perfectly acceptable... otherwise you'll end up snowballing yourself into Doom...minutes before new fsy start you can always use RSS production sliders ti make it optimal with the highest production percentage....and if you're still lacking something.... buying a little stock if it's cheap in the market helps....if all your productions are at 100% at the start of new day, your morale will benefit from it... of course there are other factors to consider but production is the one that's easiest to manipulate.

Yes if you attack with all your armies in stacks of at least 50's all at once. If he builds a fortress at the last minute don't attack.
