And as was said already, upgrading your navies is very important, so if you are behind only a little that can make a big difference, since the AI often upgrades their navies as soon as they can after unlocking new ships, as far as I know.
Yeah true, but I beat them all the time as Norway, even Scotland takes them down LOL
-Diplomacy Tech levels of self and enemy
-Admiral stats of self and enemy
-Unlocked national ideas (how many ideas in total) of self and enemy
-How many light ships of self and enemy compared to force limit (is a good way to judge naval tradition)
Most likely, as others have said, you were out classed. Technology does not mean outclassed. It is a common misconception and is constantly thrown out there that being ahead in tech is the end-all be-all to winning. Completely false. As with anything in EU4 there are too many modifiers that are taken into account that determine success and failure.
Diplo Tech:
Britain - 12
France - 13
Admirals:
Britain - 2/1/2
France - 1/0/1
British Ideas:
National - 6
Exploration - full
Unkown (non-military) - full
Quality - 4
French Ideas:
National - 6
Defensive - full
Exploration - full
Humanist - 5
Light Ships:
Britain - 0 (had 28 before the war, I sank them all with the help of Netherlands, and captured 2)
France - 6 (had 4 before the war, plus 2 captured from British)
I am aware that technology isn't the be-all end-all. I am just confused as to how they could out-class me if I have the same ship types as they do.
From what you just posted it is quite obvious as to why you lost.
Britain not only had boosts from their National Ideas, but their Admiral far out-classed yours. Admirals make a really big difference in naval warfare. Also, it is very likely their naval tradition was much higher than yours considering that using light ships (the more the better) increases your tradition each month.
While you don't really think transports matter much, they don't offensively but they do have higher durability than a light ship. Your heavies were likely targeting their transports, while their heavies were having a free-for-all vs your ships. You actually didn't outnumber them at all.
So it is simple in summary:
England had a better admiral, better navy tradition, better ships (ni's) and had some cannon fodder in the form of transports. Its not surprising you lost.
Sorry I know you want another answer, but that is the truth of the matter. At least now you know you should probably rethink fighting one of their armada's unless you actually have the upper hand. 7 ships is not an upper hand when going against a foe who excels in that area.
Good luck have fun!
You need to manually upgrade your ships (those already built) when you research new ones, so if you hadn't done that, they could have better ships than you.
This isn't really applicable to his situation as both nations had the same unit types since tech 9. They both had a couple techs to go before the heavy upgrade at tech 15. But yes it is still important to upgrade, but highly unlikely that he had not upgraded/built ships since dip tech 3.
