Ah yes, LA Noire. Don't worry, perfectly acceptable excuse not to do much of anything except play a (different) game right there XD Enjoy your time perusing the streets as a cop Chris.
Sadly, fellas, I'm now looking at the weekend for an update. Not too much time to write, and what spare time I have has been eaten up by LA Noire—which my loving wife bought for our anniversary.

Just curious, was your latest update after having included my submod yet? If not, what year did you add it in?
Also, just released my final version today finally, with some bug fixes. Also added more Pope's Bastards events, which might actually fire with the powerful Pope you got.
I have one question, though: if you have Scotland annexed, why won't you form Great Britain?
I work in the Gallery where that Van Cleve portrait of Henry VIII is at the moment. That was odd
Edit: And has there ever been a more desirable title than 'Megaduke'?
I think it would be better for everyone if you just cut your ties with the east and let the Romans and Bulgarians manage their own affairs. Maintaining those faraway unions and vassals is taxing to your administrative capacity and with such a poor regency council it would seem like keeping things running smoothly is likely to be bothersome.
Good ridance to Byzantium! With the isolationist tradition in the British Parliament, I don't think that too much people will miss Constatinople.
The only major downside to the war has been Henry's death, for which I blame Burgundy's full-offensive slider position (although I'm not sure if that's still the case in MMU).
It remains to be seen how Henry VII will be viewed by history. This could certainly be the start of a change in viewpoints for England.
The Ottomans have been pushed off of mainland Europe (except for Budjak) and, quite possibly, are too weak to handle any Alliance Byzantium might now be able to forge (especially if they forge an alliance with Serbia-Yugoslavia). If it isn't, then England could always quietly guarantee the independence of it's territories...
Also, that 'Improve Prestige' is going to come in real handy for your lost stability XD
I remember you mentioned that Byzantium would figure heavily in the next couple updates, so here is to the next couple being the reforging of the Union - /cheers
edit - plus, you've invested so much effot, manpower, ducats, and lost opportunity into it at this point that it would feel like a huge drain to lose it now.
Man what's with the MMU AAR's and attacking Turkey? What has Turkey done to you?
Most splendid update! Without Ottos as the main power, Balkans will become a really interesting place. Maybe Serbia will forge their little empire, or maybe that will be Bulgaria, or possibly Hungary?

They're scary as hell if you let them grow too big and it's better to help them get split up into lots of little bits instead of having them grow and then maybe get swallowed up by mega-Austria later on ^^
