FEEDBACK
Capibara - I hope it's interesting as well since this will probably eat my free time until the new year!
whitesoxfan - I'd rather fail than use exploits, but fingers crossed I'll manage it.
elbasto - Views are good, comments are better.
enkhuush - Me to
L Lawliet - In my test game Hesse did much of the work! Someone will consolidate, I just need to help them.
Nodscouterr - See my response to
Capibara LOL
kebzero - Someone will consolidate the HRE. As for a Catholic Eastern Europe, that's not too much of a problem, I'll bypass it until the late game and try and have a cunning plan. In an ideal game I wouldn't DOW anyone.
cezar87 - Everyone should do one WC just to appreciate what's involved. But yes AARs do need a point, an objective, to stay interesting.
sprites - Thanks!
Hitmanalex - Mistakes are possible but I tend to be very careful in AAR games. Accidental crossing the line through monarch death can happen but I'll probably just pick up warnings.
aldriq - The amount of BB burn available is hugely variable but I'll be able to take Cabinet by 1650 as well as aim for Papal Controller. I haven't bothered with too many calculations.The trick will be minimising BB gain.
The Arch Mede - Interesting challenge you have there. My plan is that the onlyother colonies made by Europeans will be Madeira and the Azores, the Portuguese missions. It worked in my test game - but financing the colonisation of everything was a huge economic strain.
jhhowell - True the concept hasn't been proven but (house) style matters
Update shortly, please note image hosting is with Tinypic who I've not used before so any prolems let me know. Imageshack just won't load for me and since Photobucket cut the free bandwidth to 10GB a month I've started getting warning messages again from the 'Audacity' screenshots.
