Just managed first win on Monarch, with Spain on small archipelago map.
What made this difficult was:
No copper, at any stage in game.
No iron, until I'd got gunpowder, military tradition and combustion and built loads of cavalry, grenadiers, destroyers and subs.
Not even aluminium until it appeared in an old mine a few turns from the end.
No rivers.
Not a single farm in my lands all game.
It was fun destroying all Tokugawa's raiding frigates with transport ships. MedicII transports are neat on archipelago maps
