Default Re: land acquisition methods....

Take all surrounding my castle (for the admin points)

Look for special povinces such as ones with Amazons

look for chokepoints I want

take any weak provinces leaving strong ones as free defense or until later in the game when they wont hurt me as much

Consider money provinces and resource provinces but only if it doesnt make me vulnerable

Look at snaking my way across the map. I prefer that to an amoeba growth spreading equally in a growing circle. Especially if my nation has flying commanders or a flying combat pretender
