Bismarck1: Read and find out!
SunZyl: Yeah, characters do that.
J. Passepartout: Smear tactics backfired this time. Actually Putzkammer probably should have let von Leuw's complaint go - he had enough of a lead.
Chief Ragusa: That's what I'm going to do actually. I think Albrecht WILL be grandmaster in 1510 (when he ascends) ... then in 1525 he'll make his move, and the Catholic 'loyalists' will try to stop him. Then we'll sit down and go over our options again. As for Pommerania....I hope so, but I'm not holding out much hope. The Teutons have no more really good diplomats. Then again, once my reputation is back to normal (if ever) it might be worth trying again.
stnylan: Thanks. If you want confusing, here's another war
Duke of Wellington: That map started life as a screenie. I colored over the province names, borders, buildings, shields etc. and added the major cities (capitals and 25K plus) back in. I think it looks cleaner, though I won't do it often. (It takes work )
Stuyvesant: I was hoping someone would catch the arboricide. Everyone missed the wlak over in Resurrection. Yes, maybe if the game gets boring I'll have the trees rise up against the Knights!
Draco Rexus: Wikipedia seems to indicate von Wetzhausen is what this AAR would call a red. He advocated war with Poland. Of course, his Order was significantly weaker and he ended up bending his knee to Casimir. We'll see how our version does.
Archaalen: Another vote for the tree rebellion! :scribbling notes:
dublish: I'd have to check. I THINK the event chain assumes Brandenburg will annex Prussia. If so, it's easy enough to put in an event where our 'Prussia' would annex them.
Tactically yes, the right move would seem to be vassalize to Poland so we can tweak their inflation, then break it when our stab lets us. You're right though, barring a major reversal or warming of relations, I can't see these Knights doing that.
Fulcrumvale: Martin is sane, first off. His stats are in the main post - an average ruler. As I'm playing him I think of him as detail/plan oriented, with a tendency to over-focus on it and ignore or not care about what else might be happening otherwise.
--------
EDIT: I've been hoping for two posts now to get a map of Europe up. Next time for sure. I've been waiting to see if an event would fire.
In 1476, Austria is supposed to eventannex most of Burgundy with France getting the rest. It requires Burgundy to be at peace however, and Burgundy's been continually at war. As of 1482, they've settled the big ones, but their good friend England is trying to put down two rebellions (Normandy and Armagnac) and who knows what'll happen when I restart.
The event expires in 1484. If Burgundy stays at war for a few more years, the event will fail and Austria won't get their free land.
Aww....
