Hey all, Paranoid Tsar has just started a Pskov AAR. With his kind permission, I will also begin one. This is not meant to be a competition, but rather see how these two tales spin out with this forgotten nation. To be fair, I will use the same set up PT uses. Namely,
Rules, Game and House
The game will be played on normal difficulty with normal aggression.
No cheating or editing. No restarting saves. If we get put on the ashheap, so be it.
No declaration of war without a CB.
No alliances with any of our traditional enemies. All the nations Pskov has a CB against are considered tradional enemies. These nations are Novgorod, Tver, Lithuania, Muscowy, Ryazan, and Suzdal.
No alliances with the Teutonic Knights. Our people still remember their aggression in the region.
Religion will never be a motive for war, other than defense against fanaticism (see last). We are faithful, but not zealots.

Goals, From Short Term to Long Term
1) Survive as an independent nation. The most important goal, for obvious reasons.
2) Expand our territory and become a regional power.
3) Eliminate our traditional enemies, that is all the nations we start with a CB against.
4) Unify Russia. Basically, recreate historical Russia, but under the banner of Pskov! The most ambitious goal.
More then likely, we will both crash and burn quickly, but it will be fun, nonetheless.
