Duke of Wellington - Very true, but the one problem is that it is going to take much gold to get relations back to where they need to be for that to happen. I have been steadily working on Hesse and have them just about ready, but both Friesland and Mecklenburg are negative relations at this point. Still and all - I have ten years to do it.
Storey - Yes, yes - I know.
But I did try to get my rep back to respectable before the next "adventure." Thanks for reading.
Renss - Now how can you see Hungary on that map? True - Bohemia has gotten a bit out of control. I took the risk and accepted a marriage proposal from them hoping that might keep me safe to the east.
J. Passepartout - You have no idea. It provides a tremendous manpower boost that makes fielding warmongering armies so much easier.
Fiftypence - They do their best. Lots more to come if I can recall it all with little screenies and no history log. Hopefully I'll be able to be much more informative when I've caught up to the initial 40 years I played.
stnylan - And that is something we shall have to deal with once I get to the 1490's.
Draco Rexus - Indeed, I was always worried about letting relations get too low with electors, though it surprised me how many continued to support me even when relations dipped below +100. As for Austria - wait and see.
Snake IV - I'm glad you noticed France up there. And they don't stop at that. As we get closer to the 1490's, I'll discuss it in a little more detail.
Thanks for reading, everyone, and certainly for all your comments. Once more, I hope to have an update up later in the day. Until then...
