Real Men Do It Alphabetically: An AARgau

unmerged(58610) · Feb 9, 2008

Alphonso has been so outnumbered during most of his battles that he thoughtthe English force was the Hapsburgs. Perhaps the change of liege hadn't reached him yet?
Uprisings? When?
Johann dying - when?
Allowing a militarily capable Hapsburg to survive?
Is there no end of the As? A is the beginning and, it would seem, neverending.
King of Arabia, yet?

This is Asturias de Santillana.

The count of Asturias de Santillana is, of course, excommunicated, and his title grabbed, but also he is a vassal of the Duke of Bohemia and not the King of Bohemia directly!

So as you've seen many times before, when I declare war on him like so,

The Duchy of Bohemia is ejected from and goes to war with the Kingdom of Bohemia.

Of course Asturias de Santillana is not the only province that the Count of Asturias de Santillana owns, so I call up my central European regiments to march on some Czech redoubt.

Hey look one of my vassals is a crazed excommunicated heretic! Well I can fix the excommunicated part.

My Army of France does battle with the English in Evreux.

And unfortunately fails!

But fortunately this time the battle for the next province is an actual battle and not mopping up rebels.

And the English take back Evreux.

Yet another dirty trick used to make the process of taking provinces faster. The adventures of Johann von Habsburg continue in the next exciting episode of Real Men Do It Alphabetically, an AARgau!

You're not going to threaten to send unwanted courtiers their way are you? I suppose you could excommunitcate a whole bunch of them and then offer to revoke the excommunication were they to become your vassals. That'd qualify as a dirty trick.

Real Men are able to make an update without killing any relatives

That was surprising…

Those English armies sure seems strong and dangerous and I have a feeling this war will last for a long time, or else I guess there will be necessary to use some gamey tricks to end it.

Slinky · Feb 10, 2008

If you keep a nice pace you can actually break free from the A's in about two weeks, that would mean that you can start conquering the B's even before next month WHOOHOO

De Santillana Also Falls.

Chapter 61: Asturias de Santillana

As told with many pictures. And a moderate amount of words.

Knud Knýtling, Prince of Denmark (and other assorted tales))

1185-1186

As my armies arrive in Hradec Something I win in Asturias de Santillana!

And they win there too for some reason!

And for good measure my army in Egypt wins against somebody!

Normally updates end here because once I liberate a province the owner gives it up instantly, but not this guy, with his two provinces!

Look at me! I'm resorting to reporting educational paths and I haven't done that in forever!

He refuses despite his second province being besieged at this very moment!

Wilhelm is starting to become another Hermann von Habsburg, which is quite annoying!

I don't trust my apparently very weak troops to take back Evreux so I send them up to the English mainland.

And later the guy accepts.

I also had this offer waiting, which I take now.

It's smooth sailing for the next couple of provinces. Which is not very hard as the number of provinces that will be a challenge to take diminishes as the power of the von Habsburgs grows. The adventures of Johann von Habsburg continue in the next exciting episode of Real Men Do It Alphabetically, an AARgau!

This is the province of Aswan.

They are part of the Emirate of Cyrenaica, as this declaration shows.

The Emirate helps out by declaring war on the vassals I have that are closest to it.

Not that it will help Aswan much.

And what's this? Cyrenaicans in Alexandria?

Return from your crossing, Alfonso! Your people need you!

Yeah! Of course this basically destroyed the regiment of Arques and I could have called up Alexandria with a commander that is even more skilled and it would have had the same effect, but hey.

I take this time to claim the province two spots over.

Because Aswan's liberation is here!

And while Alfonso's army was sent to Al Alamayn to prevent the Cyrenaicans from annexing it, somehow that war disappeared so I have to redeclare it again!

And of course since the Alexandria regiment costs 500 ducats a month to maintain I have to disband it at the end of every month, which makes it only good for defending Alexandria and the provinces immediately adjacent. Which is fine because its large size means that it overruns any province's maximum troop support all by itself. Our villainess organizes a royal marriage sure to anger everyone in Norway as the adventures of Johann von Habsburg continue in the next exciting episode of Real Men Do It Alphabetically, an AARgau!

You should claim Africa. It starts with an A.

An Asyut Observation.

As told with many pictures. And a moderate amount of words.

This is the province of Asyut. It is right next to Aswan.

Unfortunately it's not owned by Aswan, but instead a three-province independent beydom for some reason.

The Alfonso prevails.

The victory must have heartened him, and given him the strength to recover.

The Cyrenaicans accept a peace for all their gold.

I give Asturias de Oviedo to Alfonso's son not only because the Jimenezs should rule some of Spain again but also because the English are about to march into it and I am a cheating bastard!

And that second army that was marching to Asyut from the north is defeated! The good news though is that they also stopped the enemy army that was marching to Asyut.

I know Atheniai is going to be annoying so I'm going to start it now.

My Andernach regiment, sent all the way from northwestern Germany to northern France because some English dudes were besieging my demesne province of Arques, win at Arques! Yay!

Asyut is taken, taking a little bit longer than expected since I didn't have those Iraqi troops.

And we're done with Egypt for the forseeable future! Which is sad because unlike much of the Middle East it is the domain of weak Muslim kingdoms and emirates and even sheikdoms and stuff. And so we wave goodbye to this ancient kingdom. Hopefully it will still be exactly the same the day we one day return. The adventures of Johann von Habsburg take a new turn in the next exciting episode of Real Men Do It Alphabetically, an AARgau!

But still within one update, so the delay is forgiven

What will you do when Alfonso makes his way off to Valhalla? Are there any suitable replacements?

A few updates ago we got a screenshot of a von Habsburg kid with 12 martial being sent off to an army education. Even if he gets Misguided Warrior, he'll still have a Martial score equal to Alfonso's. Of course he'll probably get "Severely Wounded" in his very first battle or something.

Fascinating, Lain had 1522 men in his army and loses 2218 men. Must be the shadow armies of the von Hapsburgs! You're still fighting England. Must be some oversight here, unless you're going for all their gold, too.

On to Athens and the forces of the Prince of Hellas. Surely, no bunch of cowardly Greeks can stand before the fearless hosts of a Duke of the Kingdom of Bohemians?

Don't be pessimistic. He'll probably become Schizophrenic and kill himself long before he sees battle.
