massive wars - first against ~all of Europe (Prussia, Austria, GB, Spain, Netherlands, Portugal, Italy), then trading a couple of powers for others (subtract Prussia + Spain, add Ottomans + Russia), and winning both of them, all while people are being sent to the guillotines in Paris?
The ****?
I had thought of Napoleon's conquests and the Revolution as separate events, not concurrent ones; that's clearly wrong. I think EU4 might be missing the part of being Revolutionary where you spawn a 6/6/6/3 general.
