Chapter One Hundred and Two
Karankawa revolts in November as my armies prepare for the next round of ‘Get Portugal’.
War with the USA - December 1797
This war sucks in Portugal and Shawnee the US allies. USA as war leader is good I should be able to get a 100 point peace deal here - provinces from Portugal of course.
In terms of a plan I’m intending to focus most of my effort on grabbing what I want from Portugal (mainly some border provinces) while pushing for the USA. I’m also going to use one of the armies in the British Isles to land at the northern end of New England and start taking provinces there - I’m assuming the American army will probably march to meet me in Portuguese territory.
War with France - December 1797
Since I’m busy…
Banda Oriental and Ivory Coast revolt at the news as do Murcia and Worodogu later in the month. January starts with peace with Shawnee and the annexation of France!
The spring brings revolts in Cornwall, Lothian and Guaycura, Erie and Salamanca. Modena converts in February.
Battle of Allegheny - May 1799.
The Americans had a pretty big army for their size - possibly ex-rebel units given the force composition. Am I the only person to be amused by the Americans using Redcoats? I pick up virtually no WE from the battle - attrition is likely to be another matter entirely particularly as I chase for the kill. Smashing the only large force in the Americas is a worthwhile prize.
News of the battle was clearly misinterpreted as revolts break out in Iowa, Pennyrile, Futa Jallon and Tlemcen.
July sees that American army ran to ground and destroyed in the Portuguese capital of Conoy. I’m glad that was fought in summer as these are winter affected provinces and the attrition damage would hurt! Canada DOWs the now defenceless Americans but I’ll win the race to the border provinces - 100 war score against the Americans is still possible.
The rest of the year is pretty quiet with a relatively small number of revolts; Barcelona, Salinan, Fife, Pensacola, Trondelag, Tierra del Fuego, Alaska, Shikoku, Caracas, Mixtec and Mexico.
By the start of January 1799 I’m only at +41 war score but the last three American provinces are under siege and I’ve captured the 100 points worth of Portuguese provinces I want.
There’s very little fighting through 1799 just the usual rebels; Karankawa, Nootka, Akureyri, Banda Oriental and Cuzco.
Sus and Dendi rebel in September. I’m now at 100% over the USA I’m just marching my troops back into at Portuguese territory so I can get them home. The sieges of the last two Level 5 provinces took some time after the initial assaults failed badly.
Peace with the USA - October 1799
Another 100 points worth of Portuguese provinces. This feels too slow…
There’s another five revolts before the end of the year; Menominee, Cornwall, Cahokia, Gascogne and Melilla.
