Welcome to my 2nd AAR.
While deciding what country to play, I discovered this thread about the Obodrittes. Congratulations to Semi-Lobster, Veldmaarschalk and to all the people who contributed to this fascinating dicsussion. After reading this thread, it was clear who I should play. From pagan warlord to Christian convert to fallen power, the story of the Nakonid family was too good to pass up.
Once a line of Grand Princes of a mighty pagan principlaity, the Nakonid dynasty finds itself in 1066 expelled from their own domain after a reactionary uprising against the new Christian faith and their territory reduced to the lands around Lübeck. Wedged between the Kingdom of Denmark and the Holy Roman Empire, with the threat of their old nation wishing to extinguish the Christian threat, this should be interesting.
At this early stage, I have no ultimate goals except for survival. I think the goals will present themselves during the course of the game.
So here goes: County of Lübeck, v1.05 + SMACK v3.
First post coming soon. Hope you enjoy it!
