A dual Austria-Hungary AAR
After finishing my first game with EU III and getting Napoleon's Ambition yesterday I thought it would be fun and instructive starting a dual game 'a la Storey' with the new expansion. Since I lack Joe's tactic skills, literary charm, cats and most importantly, patience, I'll try something simpler, more homely and less exotic. Instead of a competitive target I'll set 2 collaborative goals. So these are the T&Cs:
- I'll play Austria and Hungary in alternate turns of 5 years (to start with, if I feel confident enough later in the game I might extend them to 10 years).
- All settings to normal.
- Austria's target: HRE-centered, keeping Western Europe in order, France isolated, marrying everything that moves, ... usual Habsburg policies.
- Hungary's target: Balkan-centered, keeping the Ottomans at bay and Poland/Lithuania looking east.
- I'll try my best to keep both countries in good terms and avoid any conflict of interest, but of course nothing will stop the AI being naughty, will it?
That's it. I'll start with Austria on January 1, 1455, next update this weekend.
