All your COTs are belong to us: an English AAR

[Fnuco]

Throughout history, greed has taken may forms.


It has driven man (or hobbit, or Bill Gates) to any action needed to get that special something.



The almighty DUCAT!



And to do so, one must control them all:



ALL!!!

(evil laughter)


And now, the meanest, greediest, most despicable trader of them all will not stop at anything and conquer all COTs on the planet!



Mwahahahaha!

[Saulta]

I guess thet you´re after all Cots in the world? Could be interesting, I´ll be around!

[Grundius]

I hate your work Fnuco . No really, let's see how this goes. Good luck.

All the COTs! All will be mine! Precioussss

I like the idea. I also like the title of the AAR and that I arrived here in the beginning. What I do not like however is the way you start. To be honest it is plain worthless. It is the firts post that you gain or loos your readers on. If it had not been you but a total unknown writer who was new to the forum I might not have read this. The first post should be the most atractive of them all. Not that you will lack readers, your name on the forum don't allow that, but you could have got more and a better first post also gives a better feeling about the AAR. You might consider it cause it works,I know. However, I belive that this poor layout will be way compencated by the quality of the reading in the AAR. Let's conquer those CoTs

point taken. will change first post.

[Fnuco]

better?

[stnylan]

Mmm, I'm just getting red x's

[Duke of Wellington]

Mmm, I'm just getting red x's

Same here

[Grundius]

Same here

I get nothing at all (using Firefox).

[Duke of Wellington]

Hmmm still not working.

This AAR looks like it will be interesting though

[Grundius]

I can see them with Firefox now. That last guy looks the scariest and inhuman of them all .

[Snake IV]

better?

Much better, this will atract many people i belive.

[Duke of Wellington]

Thats looks a lot better, apart from the last pic, the red cross was better

[stnylan]

Can see them. Definitely a dubious person if ever there was one

[rsobota]

Good luck. Controlling Cot's can really give you a lot of money, but beware not to become so much greedy and expel the ai merchants from then or else your "all" will turn into "nothing" and you will be as poor as a beggar .

What is going to be your strategy? Do you plan to leave France early and then get naval? Or do you plan to start with Ile-de-France as your first CoT ? Anyway, the East is rich, full of exotic CoT's and somewhat primitive civilizations. It's waiting for the first european to get there.

My first advice, however, is to vassalize or eliminate Portugal. They can be a threat to your colonial power.

woot! 6 readers and not even started!

sweet!

too bad nobody reads my Aragon AAR.. *nudge nudge wink wink*

a big thanks to all of you for hopping on board. Actually in this game i will try to restrain mself from conquering it all. Only COTs... (goes into hypnosis mumbling: "Only COTs.... Only COTs.... Goosfraba")


stnylan, DoW, Grundius: glad you like my rugged good looks.


rsobota: thanks for the tips, but i already have my own plan, not very different from yours, but i cannot guarantee there will not be any idiotic moves.

Snake IV: thanks for the nice words in your first post. I never consider myself as a good writer, more like a good player. Hope to improve my writing skills here in this great AARland.


enough bla bla... in the words of the great AL BUNDY:

"Let's rock!"



edit: oh, and Grundius, you never told me why u hated my work!

[rsobota]

Edit: erased.

[The Real Deal]

COOL start! I will keep an eye on it, good luck!

[Fnuco]

Wow I didn't notice you're making a land route to the East . Wow, good luck working on the "Tea Route"; and converting some infidels too, especially those catholics and their heathen Pope (notice: I didn't mean to offend any RL catholic ).

ahem... wrong AAR.... but i am sure Talkingdonkey appreciates your comments.


The Real Deal: Hey man! great to have you following my AAR. In the meantime, shouldnt you be working on finishing at least ONE of yours?
