Europa Universalis 4
Playing as Sweden and I finally got into a good position after the Independence War with Denmark where I took parts of Denmark and Norway, I was extremely lucky that it was the Ottoman Empire who supported my independence so that's an alliance I intend to keep. I then expanded east into Novgorod to cut off Muscovy while also leaving the capital alone for now to stay on good terms and have a temporary alliance (before I eventually the capital for myself so as to prevent Muscovy forming Russia). Then while distracted by the Polish-Lithuanians I annexed most of the Livonian Order as well as vassalized Riga. With Poland getting a Danzig vassal at the expense of the Teutonic Order with only one piece of land left the Teutons were weak enough to vassalize.
The stage is set for the next war (but for another time) when Sweden (me), the Ottomans and Muscovy attack Poland-Lithuania and I avoid a lot of aggressive expansion by instead feeding a bunch of land to my Teuton vassal before I eventually peacefully annex them after at least 10 years.
Then in the future I'll conquer all of Scandinavia and the Baltic, turn against Muscovy to prevent the formation of Russia and expand to the Ural mountains, use an annexed Iceland to go colonize the New World, and maintain a strong alliance with the Ottomans especially for the eventual League War against the Holy Roman Empire.
