    A bit of prestige can't hurt.


    My court has always room for another bastard.


    I'm out of debt but I still need money.


    Time to cross fingers and hope they convert.


    We'll see if the chief of Karelia still wants to be my friend after this.


    My second living son becomes an adult.


    Chief of Satakunta backstabbed us.

    I finally meet that man and show him why different religions can't live peacefully together.


    Our work in east is done and we head to west.


    Angry Finnish horde engages the pagan army in Finland.


    They will pay for their treachery.


    Why should I care? I'm not going to keep that province.


    Good luck, son!


    What does stability matter anyway?


    Can't you just wait a couple of months?


    My son's puberty happened a bit late.


    One of the few times this event is actually useful.

    It seems the pagans do not appreciate the generosity of your rule.

    This is an excellent AAR. Unique and hilarious at the same time.

    @ stnylan: O tempora, o mores!
    @ Mrdie: Thanks!



    The war comes finally to an end.


    Have you even looked at your stewardship score?


    Nice! Piety without any work.


    The current borders. I gave Satakunta to my son.


    I'm starting to think it was a mistake to get so many bastards.

    That's my son!


    Huh?


    This is getting scary...


    One of the few obstacles between my and my kingship...


    ...is cleared.


    Zombie bishop strikes again! Hopefully Ruigi is a patient man.


    I finally have enough provinces to become the duke of Karelia.


    Novgorod became a vassal of Byzantine when I wasn't looking.


    This is kind of weird...


    Don't expect any land, though.

    Finland! I never thought of it. Now I'll have to try this, thanks a lot...

    "As for the Republicans—how can one regard seriously a frightened, greedy, nostalgic huddle of tradesmen and lucky idlers who shut their eyes to history and science, steel their emotions against decent human sympathy, cling to sordid and provincial ideals exalting sheer acquisitiveness and condoning artificial hardship for the non-materially-shrewd, dwell smugly and sentimentally in a distorted dream-cosmos of outmoded phrases and principles and attitudes based on the bygone agricultural-handicraft world, and revel in mendacious assumptions - such as the notion that real liberty is synonymous with the single detail of unrestricted economic license or that a rational planning of resource-distribution would contravene some vague and mystical ‘American heritage’…- utterly contrary to fact and without the slightest foundation in human experience? Intellectually, the Republican idea deserves the tolerance and respect one gives to the dead." - H.P. Lovecraft, 1936

    Brains.



    Also, I suppose a brilliant strategist would make a worthy son. Best to keep it within the family!

    @ stnylan: Yeah, hopefully the old man dies before they all reach maturity...
    @ jeffg006: I'm glad I can inspire people.
    @ Judas Maccabeus: He might get legalized sooner or later...

    Why did it have to take so long?


    There was no way I could have taken that title anyway.


    I've done this so long I can't stop now.


    First one of my daughters who reaches adulthood.


    Heck yeah! I need all the money I can get.


    I dow'd the chiefdom of Reval and Livonians dow'd us.


    A war without camp-followers is not a war at all.


    It's not my fault I couldn't make it stay long enough at the first time...


    I might be old but I'm not senile!

    Poor Mielus is just a victim of circumstances.


    Now I can finally sleep during the night.


    Estonian pagans surrender.


    The new borders. Now I can become the king of Finland when I have enough money.


    I've got to keep up my image, you know.





    Of course I sign that paper... -Wait, what's Magna carta?!
