Events
The camels of the caravans have passed over the endless sands of the Gobi dessert for millennia. The soft touch of the wares worth more than their weight in gold in the distant western lands. From the small larvae to the skin of the richest queens’ of the Atlantic coast the wares are transported under the most grueling conditions, taxing the hardiest caravan. But it is all worth for the price is unimaginable and the clothing made of silk is the dream of the most powerful monarchs of Christian Europe, securing generous profits to all who have a hand and risk much in the perilous transportation. For rich rewards are secured for those who take part in it and a monopoly was a long dream of all merchant realms on the coast of the Mediterranean. Genoa now striving for mastery of the source to Europe. Will her treaties with realms of the musulman to the East provide the desired result?
1. The monopoly is successful and the chests of Genoans fill fast (+1 starting eco, +1 current eco, +1 morale for 1 yearto Genoa).
2. The monopoly is partially successful and Genoa reaps the profits (+1 starting eco, +1 current eco for 1 year to Genoa).
3. The traders of Genoa trade with silk, but somehow the state chest does not increase (no effect).
4. The traders care little for royal proclamations and silk flows as before – to the highest bidder (no effect).
5. The Genoans expended large sums to procure favourable agreements with the Turks and Mongols, but it seems to be a wasted effort (-1 morale for 1 year to Genoa).
6. The flow of silk, never bending to the will of monarchs continues uninterrupted through pirate havens and other Muslim realms throughout the eastern Mediterranean, while empty Genoan trading vessels are awaiting cargo on ports no longer favoured by the caravans (-2 current eco, -1 morale for 1 year to Genoa).
Roll:3. The traders of Genoa trade with silk, but somehow the state chest does not increase. Possibly the Genoans have not directed enough funds to the enterprise and the Muslim kingdoms have not been enticed enough to prosecute the agreed upon plan to the fullest. For now, Genoa receives no visible profit from its trade agreements to the East (no effect).

It has been now a many years that the ruler of Pommern resides on its throne. And from a small duchy betwixt the marshes and the cruel sea he has forged one of the most powerful states of the Holy Roman Empire. Extending lands from the gulf of Botnia to the forest of Poland. What is more, this skilled diplomat rode the currents of the world so skillfully that he became the Emperor and has reduced once powerful Austria to a heap of smoldering ruins. But he can not be everywhere at once and the Swedes would like to become free, from all domination be it Danish or Pommeranian.
1. Armed rebels plague the forests of Sweden and the Pommeranian duke is forced to dispatch troops (-1 Land Mil to Pommerania).
2. Pommern has to dispatch troops. “Why did we get involved here too?” thinks Pommeranian nobility (-1 morale for 1 year to Pommern).
3. The unrest in Sweden ends with big words, but little action (no effect).
4. The Swedish peasants are grateful for the peace they enjoy and the nobles await a better opportunity (no effect).
5. The ruler of Sweden might be distant, but he is just (no effect).
6. The Swedes are satisfied with their new king and their opinion of Pommerania only increases (+1 morale for 1 year to Pommerania).
Roll:1. Armed rebels plague the forests of Sweden and the Pommeranian duke is forced to dispatch troops. The Swedes have fought long and hard against the Danish and view Pommern with as much severity. The forests of Svaeland offer refuge to the rebels, most mercenaries from the Northern Wars, who have long forgotten to till the soil or master a craft. Instead their calling has become war and as such they are skilled in it’s dark arts. Pommerania has to send loyal Pommeranian troops to deal with the Swedes (-1 Land Mil to Pommerania).

The Genoans have helped the Tatars build new ships with the most modern equipment, and now the Horde has a fleet on an equal footing with western realms. Soon the ports of Azov and Crymea are bustling with fine ships of the Italian design, but flying the proud flags of the Golden Horde. The entire Black Sea quakes as this new fleet is put into effect. But the waterways are cruel and often the finest galleys touch the bottom of the seas with no human to blame but rather an unexpected storm.
1. The ships are fine pieces of war and the horde’s fleet is feared throughout the region (+1 morale for 1 year, +1 current Sea Mil +1 starting Sea Mil for 5 years to the Golden Horde).
2. The war galleys enlarge the fleet of the Horde (+1 current Sea Mil +1 starting Sea Mil for 5 years to the Golden Horde).

Roll:4. The war galleys are modern, but they are too few to make a difference. Fine boats of war have the Italians constructed on the waters of Azov Sea, but to the fleet of the Golden Horde, it provides a new flag-ship and a few more. Overall, funds dedicated to the project were lacking and the naval arm of the Horde remains as before (no effect).

As the duke of Bremen is on state visit in Aragon, duchess Maria-Elisa of the Greif has control over the duchys coffers, and she is not afraid to use this authority.
As news of the death of her father, duke Kazimierz V of the Greif of Pommern, reaches her, fear for his immortal soul strikes her. Acting in union with archbishop Erasmus of Bremen, she orders impressive masses held throughout the duchy, and a decree is issued, that the next four sundays, every citizen in Bremen and all lands under Bremens control will pray for Kazimierz soul.
To further guarentee the dukes place in Heaven, land confiscated from Danish nobles in Skåne and some taxation and fishing rights are given to the church.
May God have mercy on duke Kazimierz V of the Greif of Pommern.
Bremen spends 1 eco to trigger event.

The archbishop of Cologne is a pampered ruler. In his quest for purity of body and soul he has decided to construct a unique latrine based on ones, he saw long time ago during his pilgrimage to Rome. It is said that Roman Emperors used such devices, with marble and running water of all things! And now he has ordered one built for him. But how will the rest of Cologne react to such an unprecedented act?

2. The lavatory becomes an article of rumour (no effect).

A quick question.
Does the number of votes I have in the Papal elections relate to the number of cardinals I have?
IE, 3 cardinals = 3 votes?

Do i've got voting rights, from what I see I don't think i've. But nothing's wrong with asking?

Yes mate - the all-clear was given in that inscription drill, if it was ambiguous in any way.

Castille has two votes. The Cardinal Archbishop of Madrid is mentioned twice because he is also the head of the Diocese.
Voting rights? (Can you proof read your posts, please) No, Cologne currently doesn't have a cardinal assigned to it.
(It appears I was wrongly informed. Thanks, Longinus!)
Dear josefgiven,
I would like to take control of the Kingdom of Bohemia in the RPG. I´m enriching the coffers of the Catalan internet cafes at the moment, and have the time to rule a state.

Petrarca,
Bohemia will be fine; Jan Huss and Jan Zizka are dead, though, just to be extra sure. Dead, I tells ya.
Please once again visit the National Statistics thread and make a post informing our resident Nat Stats man BzAli what your new realm is and also what name you have chosen for it's head of state. Now you're ready to post your stupendous court thread!
Please also adopt the avatar of Bohemia, if you're not already invovled in the 1515 game.
We advise that you do not use instant messaging programs like MSN, ICQ and AIM to discuss deals and alliances for the purposes of the game. Doing so generally leads to animosity, mistrust and a lowering of role-playing standards. Unless an RPG Steward is trying to contact you in order to help you understand the game better, it would be better for all concerned if you politely avoid talking about your role in the RPG with other, active players. The forum’s message-posting and private messaging (PM) systems should be all you’ll ever need to play the game.

Bz,
I´m signing up for Bohemia, with a HoS of Regency Council until a monarch is properly elected.

We shall stand side by side, as brothers in faith, and defend the faith with out swords against all those who seek to oppress us or deny us what is rightfully ours.
We shall combat heresy wherever we find it and welcome all those souls who have seen the light of Our Lord Jesus Christ into our arms.
We shall deny the infidels of the east the shores of our lands and prevent the schismatics of Rome from plundering our lands.

what does it mean by "In the event of a Papal Conclave, the Primate of a Diocese may cast the votes of all Cardinals not present (NPC) within his Diocese."
those this mean i also get to vote for Lithuania since they are NPC?

Just to be sure... Can anyone send a candidate running for the Papal seat!?
It would be sad if one of these christians became Pope Ooops... I meant that an honorable man of God from Jerusalem should definetily throw himself into the discussions

No, only the players of Catholic realms can run for the Papacy. I may review this in time for the next Papal Elections, but I don't want to change it now without going away and thinking about it first.

Ok, but is it possible for non catholics to send a man to the Papal election, something like an envjoy, and just make his voice heard?
No. Security would be extra tight at the Lateran about now. The vibe would be very insular. I can't imagine the 15th C. Holy See liked dealing with outsiders and heathens at the best of times, let alone now.
