I hope it'll be longer than my first AAR :]
Initial setup:
CK 1.04a + latest beta
V.Hard/Weakling (i don't like AI to kill each other)
Goals: No wc and/or powerplay. I'll try to role-play.
Take the oportunities that arise.

Info:
Major cities in provinces:
Lower Silesia - Legnica
Upper Silesia - Wroclaw (Breslau for Germans)*
Opole - Opole
Wolgast - Wolgoszcz
Werle - Strzalow
* Wroclaw is in fact in lower silesia, but when you look at the CK map Wroclaw is in Upper Sileia province. (the polish provinces are in mess I'm afraid)

Bohemia is now an independent kingdom. Good and bad. Good side is they will not have the Emperor support. Bad side is that they will not have the Imperial duty.

Definitely don't give her more troops! She won't like it...but that works to your advantage. Is she losing the war? If so you might get your chance to leave.
