I'm sure some of us have spent hundreds if not thousands of turns playing this mod. I'm creating this thread so that the SSHIP community can share any unorthodox and/or interesting campaign strategy they have discovered so far. All kinds of approaches are welcome here; historically plausible or otherwise.

Here are a few of my tricks:

1. As the HRE, set Cologne as your capital. Then, invade England
2. As the Romans, vassal feed the Serbs and the Crusaders instead of the typical reconquest route
3. As the Serbs, aim for Ragusa and play like an Italian city-state
