策略與指南

以下內容為諸多玩家中的一員所給出的，關於荷屬東印度的策略建議。請注意，由於遊戲的動態機制，這些內容對其他玩家而言可能會以不同的方式展開。

Starting Situation

The Dutch East Indies aren't particularly strong, but can easily be positioned to dominate Southeast Asia. Their overlord, the Netherlands, are relatively weak when compared to the other colonial nations (such as France or the United Kingdom), but are still strong enough to be useful against the Southeast Asian minors. Its economic development isn't horrid, but has significant room for improvement.

Grand Strategy

The Dutch East Indies start out with an assortment of puppets and nearby uncolonized lands. It's in the players' best interest to colonize the rest of Southeast Asia itself if possible to deny potential hostile powers a foothold. Annexing its puppets will also help consolidate its disorganized starting situation. After that, it can target the independent Southeast Asian minors around it.

The Dutch East Indies has great port access and the ability to create goods that the European majors often struggle with (such as Dye), so there is enormous profit potential from trade and exports. The player can then use these revenues to boost whatever they see fit. Investing in the Dutch East India company navy would be a good call, given the archipelago nature of the region.

A major choice for the player to make is whether or not to cut loose from the Dutch. The Dutch are too small and weak to have any sort of parity with the other European powers, so the player may not have a choice in this matter. It's not unheard of for the Netherlands to be conquered by the other European powers. If the Dutch get declared on by a major power, it may not be advisable to attempt to assist them, as the player may not be strong enough to tip the scales.

Whether the player is independent or not, the player may try to push into islands of Oceania (such as Hawaii) or into the Southeast Asian mainland later on in the game. It is probably best to avoid provoking the British colonies in India and Australia unless they go independent, but most other nations should be relatively easy conquests as long as the player can keep the European majors out.

Internal Politics

Similar in nature to the East India Company, the Dutch East Indies official religion and primary ethnicity do not align with the land that it is on. Uprisings and radicalism are a significant threat.

Other than that, its starting Laws are relatively decent. The player should not have too much trouble getting the laws they want.

Diplomacy

The primary diplomatic threats in the early game are usually the British and French. Prussia and Austria are usually content with battering each other for the German minors, and Russia is usually content with its internal issues and Central Asia. If the player can keep the British and French out of their affairs, consolidating most of Southeast Asia should be easy. China may attempt to intervene, but their military (while enormous) is usually so far behind technologically as to not be a major threat.

Potential

The Dutch East Indies starts as the strongest nation in the a weak area, and that gives a lot of potential for consolidation and conquest. The player will be able to consistently produce in-demand trade goods throughout the game to pad their economy. If the player is able to consolidate their position, they will be a nation that has good technology, a good population, and a good military when their neighbors might have none of those.

Weaknesses

The Dutch East Indies may have trouble with radicalism from discrimination until it can loosen up its tolerance laws (i.e. passing Multiculturalism). Where Multiculturalism might be a law to pass to bring in more immigrants for the European nations, it can be a bare necessity for the Dutch East Indies for internal stability. Gobbling up all those weak nations gives high Infamy when compared to the immediate wealth boost of conquered, and its overlord is arguably impotent against the rest of Europe.
