THE AAR BEGINS:
This is the Duchy of Bavaria. It is now a small country tucked in the middle of a Midieval looney bin. I find it surrounded by a bunch of inbred dynasties all trying to out inbreed the others. The year 1419 is when I, sir Player take control of this homeland of the Wittelsbachs and lead it to greatness. Failing that I hope to make an interesting AAR of my failure.
This is the Good Duke Ernst of Bavaria, he has good attributes for a duke to have, wise, brave, and charming. I don’t really know if I, mr. deus machina, control him directly or he just takes advice. But given my foresight I would tell him: TRY NOT TO HAVE SUCH LOOSERS FOR SONS!
Here is a look at my current slider positions. I think they are pretty crappy right now. My plan is basically to create the best economy that I can. So full Plutocracy, Full Centralization, Full Innovative, Don’t care about trade policy, Full Free Subjects. I also like Offensive and Quality. With Land versus Sea my ideal Bavaria at the end of the game does have a place in the sun, so a bit of a navy would be nice. New Munchen sounds like my kind of town.
As the days go by in the quiet Duchy of Bavaria, there is news from France. Mad king Charles VI has asked for military access, he really is very crazy. Look at his hat, only a crazy person would wear a hat like that.
Another Random Event that I always like occurs for Bavaria. I would usually go straight for the cash, but being so early in the game and having so much money to start out with. Duke Ernst decides to build Munchen for the long term, after all 1821 is a long way off.
Bavaria begins itself begins in a sort of dynastic alliance with Luxembourg and The Palatinate. We are one big happy family and I am content with it. Until one day, without realizing it, I am at war with Friesland. Being the amazing Player that I am. I rally the people of Bavaria to a fevered pitch of hatred for all things Friesish. Besides that I consider raising war taxes, just for the hell of it. Then I am distracted by the total lack of action and go back counting Bavarian milk maids. Also a key player in Imperial politics the Palatinate has left our alliance. Oh well.
The days rolled on until I soon found out just how dangerous palace life could be. Some say Count Karl slipped and fell, but many within the duchy believe he was assassinated. Duke Ernst tries to hush things up but as soon as his funeral is over his supporters go crazy trashing downtown Munchen. The army is called in and manage to put down the revolution.
Soon I am once again bored and decide to up the financial power of Bavaria and decide to pay my troops much less. They are excessive it seems for my duchy to have such army. I really did feel like this was the best idea at the time. How wrong I was.
