Hello and welcome.

As the title says the story is about alternative history. I've been toying with an idea: What if a Finnish tribe had converted to Christianity and started spreading their faith to all Finns?

I edited the scenario files so Mielus the pagan chief of Tavasts became the catholic duke of Tavastia. I also converted his wife. No other alterations were made.

If I feel like it this might become a mega campaign.

My game version is 2.1b and I'm playing Normal/Normal
 
(Note: I edited the save file so the province of Nyland is Catholic. I think that is fair)

2003495938008740508_rs.jpg

This is me. I'm quite handsome and intelligent.

2003422876875394241_rs.jpg

Here's my wife. She's a schoolgirl ;). Albeit a very, very ugly one... :(

2003405242783652739_rs.jpg

That's my realm. That white spot in the middle of pagans. The province of Nyland is Catholic but the province of Tavasts is still pagan.

2003422910062898945_rs.jpg

I decide to enact Salic Consanguinity so nobody can take my title away from the family.

2003419052676357793_rs.jpg

I also like knights...

2003444618785810324_rs.jpg

I make my wife pregnant. It isn't that bad if you close your eyes.

2003432528637891069_rs.jpg

I'm now able to fill all empty positions with people who have wandered into my realm from somewhere.

2003432769512395705_rs.jpg

The king of Sweden tries to ally with us. I won't accept until I've conquered all the pagan lands in Finland.
 
Nice start JMJ.

2005343209254482182_rs.jpg

Titti?! What kind of name is that?

2005325419559117308_rs.jpg

Hold your horses, darling!

2005334295868320090_rs.jpg

Well I'd be depressed too if I was incompetent in my job.

2005394421607389795_rs.jpg

I decide to bring Christianity to the poor pagans west of us.

2005383820657691534_rs.jpg

We win easily.

2005399412578686501_rs.jpg

Their chief tries to bribe me but I won't accept.

2005355723702543053_rs.jpg

Yeah, I'm a true badass!

2005315955938971161_rs.jpg

The pagan army attempts a desperate counter attack. No victory for Voitto.

2005315630027937922_rs.jpg

Nobody's going to have fun if I'm not invited!

2005357665392212366_rs.jpg

What's with all these people getting stressed?
 
2005423868514291306_rs.jpg

This is better be worth it!

2005427322865784608_rs.jpg

Was I too hard on him?

2005493360614818704_rs.jpg

Another son but with a better name this time.

2001085931557967217_rs.jpg

I do have a soft side...

2001017472656795691_rs.jpg

No. It's not Midsummer yet.

2001071652464390885_rs.jpg

The son with a girlish name dies.

2001051913258808799_rs.jpg

The siege of Finland is finally over.

2001026832314800557_rs.jpg

The new borders of my realm.

Thanks to everyone for the kind comments.

2003105103998200672_rs.jpg

The pagans in Tavasts are revolting. I decide to crush them and hope they convert. No luck this time.

2003136409997049251_rs.jpg

Isn't this the same pic as above? No, now they are revolting in Finland.

2003155195108672054_rs.jpg

Success!

2003132706608972750_rs.jpg

That was predictable.

2003189587682013035_rs.jpg

Yeah, I'm a machine!

2003159902769867863_rs.jpg

You can't trust teachers with these things.

2003131322494292116_rs.jpg

The pope threatens to excommunicate me so I accept.

2003130569418851656_rs.jpg

A girl? Nobody can say I didn't try.

2003199293494122195_rs.jpg

Time for pagan bashing!

2003166949162411298_rs.jpg

Crap.
 
Quite a violent beginning...
 
2005046478610943096_rs.jpg

Nothing's better than a bit of propaganda before a battle.

2005048091072758584_rs.jpg

Despite I just left my castle I'm able to make my wife pregnant...

2005023993077630803_rs.jpg

Smells like victory!

2005044366098350617_rs.jpg

Damn Ålandians started sieging Finland.

2005093230497640897_rs.jpg

How fortunate!

2005041910027632459_rs.jpg

You just realized you are screwed, didn't you?

2005086166013741273_rs.jpg

Who dares to call me a coward!?

2005086677221669944_rs.jpg

Another son is born.

2005091905305859793_rs.jpg

The siege of Viborg is over. My dear readers probably know what the peace terms are.

2005009224918100786_rs.jpg

My new expanded borders.
 
Looking like you are making an impression on the region.

Soon there's nothing they can do to me as I gather more and more manpower. If they wanted to crush me they should have done it in the beginning.

I must say, i really like your style... loads of colorful pictures, i like pictures

I'm glad you like it. I believe an AAR doesn't need a great wall of text to be enjoyable.
 
Let the catholicization continue!
 
2000990795309037217_rs.jpg

I'm really popular among the Polish.

2000947340958844071_rs.jpg

My daughter gets sick.

2000935527213671558_rs.jpg

The people in Tavasts are infected by small pox. Maybe they now decide to leave their pagan gods.

2000949478320891629_rs.jpg

I don't believe in silly omens!

2000904873641242343_rs.jpg

I, I, er... *cough*

2000918755920633354_rs.jpg

About time. I had already used my first bishop.

2000913869442681318_rs.jpg

He seems quite competent as well.

2000927930202992304_rs.jpg

Like I wouldn't know what happens next...

2000938596843431702_rs.jpg

Yep.

2000926051002731751_rs.jpg

My mother thought I was a cold person until she met my wife.
 
That cough seems to be catching.
