Bril-liant! nothing more to be said about it. Read up now since may, and it's incredible.
I started reading this AAR in the hopes it would reveal some of the intricacies of CK2 that elude me, and it did, but more than anything it gave me four solid hours of enjoyment. Thank you very much, and I will be right here with everyone else reading on to find out what happens to our tragic heroes the Zagwe's.
A winnable war? Some mistake surely!
That war is going to go absolutely horribly. I'm calling it right now.
My own personal experience with such wars tells me that not too long after your troops cross the border, the liege he's rebelling against is going to decide that the county you're besieging is the one he needs to capture so that he can add those precious few extra points to his war score, leaving you out in the cold and needing to build another army.
10 bucks on you losing this war(unless you use allies and mercs. in that case i dont bet). mosul is a powerhouse of a duchy thats a pain to siege, fight and conquer if he is rebellign against his liege(unless the liege is about imploding in independence revolts) unless you got enough men to assualt his holdigns quickly. if you really want to take it, make taking at least ONE holding absolute priority. he cant white peace with his liege to save his ass if you hod something.
You're ambitious or you aren't...
I'm sure nothing will go wrong... at all... really...
I just hope Ioanna doesn't try and sneak a bigger army into that emirate whilst you're left to fight the Selijuk's on your own. Do you still have claims to the kingdom of Abyssinia or have they been lost over time? On your previous post the Fatimids looked like they were in trouble.
I see the Secret Order of Monophysite Goat Herders (or whatever their name was) have been hard at work. Still waiting to find out what happened to Aunt Whatsername's journal after Tesfaye's death.
Oh boy, this will be good
Who is your bloodline heir? Are you going to switch with the console when she dies?
Absolutely thiw war should go horribly ! Respect the tradition mate :laugh: .I had also this question under consideration what about Abyssinia? The future of your line? so many questions I think
Maybe you'd be better off if Count Tesfaye doesn't help you...
Pray that Tesfaye be with your enemies, actually. Then you cannot lose!
Considering that she has much more money than her ancestors Dionyssa is employing a risky but cunning strategy in the war ahead: she'll feed the baboons tej and release them from their cages, with luck they head in the vague direction of the enemy soldiers
Those're probably going to be the last baboons she has in her possession. The rest have been seized by the Shi'ite Fatimid occupiers.

Seized by the Fatimids? have you not heard of the great honorable Baboon King of Sennar? His rightious crusade against the Muslim opressors? He wont rest until the Zagwee's return to Sennar or he seizes control of the Tej production, whichever comes first
yeah. he's missing his favorite LETS TEAR THEM UP! family.
I believe her heir is her half-brother and I think Duchess really needs to kill off her husband because something tells me I shouldn't like this heir of her's especially given who his mother is....
Maybe she should take some inspiration from her great-grandfather and send whom she wants killed to lead an army of 13 in to the dessert on a "scouting mission".
Count me with the "Avoid the spirit of Count Tesfaye at all costs" caucus.
Late to say that, but this chapter beginning is one of the most hilarious I have seen in my life. I just hope the story will be as good without baboons and with some heretics. Ho, the half brother will certainly be very good, if she manages to get him there.

Wow. You're a quick reader. Of course, I had to take frequent breaks because I was laughing too hard...
The Zagwes
They really think they are rid of Sennar, rid of the Order, rid of the baboons, rid of tej, rid of the peasants, don't they?
Please ignore my snickering!
I am always tickled to see the standard of your duchy.
I have found an explanation for the recent Zagwe successes:
