I decided to play the russians with bloodlust, I think the intense fighting will be fun.

I choose the 1.9 IGC on the most difficult setting with an Agressive AI. This has an independent Ryazan province that starts allied and Crimea and Pskov that starts allied if you have not upgraded yet.

March 27 Tabbow falls to assault by Shenja marches to Ryazan
April Kazan siegeing Lipstek,
April 25 Ryazan falls to assault by Shenja Shenja marches on Kazan
May 28th Kazan falls to assault to Shenja, our shoddy diplomatic corps wakens on Vodka saturatred ambassador and sends him to the Golden Horde we can not wake more, a continueing problem we will find. They are too drunk to offer peaceful annexation to Kazan so we ingnote Kazan as they try to siege back Lipsteck

June 1 1492___ We Decalre War on Golden Horde. Crimea joins, Ryazan and Pskov dishonor our alliance. Shenja markes on Samara. send cav contingents to conquer unfortified Vornes and besiege all provinces Except Donetestk wich our allies Crimea besiege.

we position on Sibir border and increase our reserve army in north.

Jan 1493-May 1493 we do fully position leaving orensk empty

May 1493, Very hard decision we decide to use our diplomat to bring Danes into the Russian Crimean alliance instead of Declareing war, we wanted the Sibir but they will have to wait. our soldiers on peacetime pay are growing fat and lazy.

November 1st, we find a diplomat and declare war on Sibir. we leave oransk empty so general winter can do its job.

November1493April 1494we watch the russian winter decimate the Sibir horsemen besieging Oransk, In april we find a diplomat and pull pskov back into alliance. we send cavalry contingents into all the provinces of Sibir to siege and ready shenja to counter attack oransk

December 1494 armies in Novograd and Moscow and now in vorones and Lugansk waiting for spring, Sibir down to their last province.

well a good opening three years of blood lust,

we have annexed 3 countries about to annex a 4th and are at war with 3 alliances not counting the Sibirs, and should have some good fighting ahead,

This was from last night I will play a few more years now and let you know how the next set of wars go

1495-1501

The Blood lust continues, we show no mercy.

Jan1495. the last province of the Sibirs is assaulted and Sibirs are reduced, sadly we killed every last man jack so no joiners from annexation. We also assault rebels in Astrakhan to free up the rest of our cavalry for the spring offensive against Poland

February as hoped Pskov fallst to Teutonic knights and is annexed by them, it will save me declaring war on them to get the province.

March 14 Fiesty Uzbecs declare war. we make room in our forward Sibir provinces for them to settle in before we flank them. next year most likely.

April 1 we order Cavalry into 5 russian provinces and Pripet marshes. position more strongly in Tula awaiting the last Polish attacks. with 20,000 cav most attacking polish armies are scrushed on Shenjas anvil.

Teutonic Knights taking heavy attrition casualties in Ingeman, Danes keeping the Swedes Busy

July the Polish Provinces fall, counter attack in Ingerman clears the siege before Ingerman falls.

September 1495 Shenja ordered with now 40,000 infantry to Tula aThe Ukaraine the second Polish Province falls to 18,000 cavalry who have sieged since april. Tula falls to assault

October 1495 shanja moves to Kursk and assaults, attack fail

November two more polish provinces fall before second attack on Kursk is launched Poles offer Tula Cherigan and Potava, they are accpeted.

January 1496 Teutonic knights back in Ingerman, General Winter decimates them as the siege. Lenin the conquistador begins working his way toward Kamchatka.

March 1497 Teh Uzbecks have settled in with 26,000 most likely cavelary sieging a Former sibir provence, we flank north and south.
with the main army falnking south into capital and assalting it, over the next several months this army will walk north assautling Ust Ust, Uralsk, Turgai and Karaganda, before assaulting Tenghis the only province captured by the uzbeks. The Uzbecs will be besiging a another former sibir provence when they learn of their countries demise and join the victor.

April 1497 shenja begins Swedish campaign we brush back Tetonic knights again in Ingerman and for the next year my ally Crimea will keep them busy in a sea saw campaign for Pskov.

Shenja marches through karelia Finland Osterman and marches into sweden Proper taking two more provinces.

November 1497 with winter coming on we settle with Sweden for Karelia and 250 ducats and advance back to the Ingerman frontier.

Jan 1498 the Tetonic knights are weakening rapidly in Ingerman and we position for the spring offensive.

February 1498 with good weather we adavance into Estonia

March 1498 we capture estonia move to Livonia, Crimea settles for a status quo peace, a good thing they will not be in my way.

April Persia and Mameluks declare war, Crimea joins and I have a diplomat for Danes which dishoner the treaty.

I was postioned already in case and 20,000 men march on Isfhan in the south, they will take it after a 22 month siege and in Azerbijan in the north wich will fall after a 18 month siege,

May-November 1498 we work our way through the tutonic knight territories with heavy fighting, we have to waste time moving out of provinces which the danes are in so we do not conquer them for the Danes.

December we advance to Courland and Shenja fail in a assault, We are repulsed by Prussian Armies, and have to regroup

February 1498-May 1499 we reastablish control over courland and Memel and assalt one and siege the other.

June Memel falls, Teutonic Knights are annexed. Lenin the Conquistador has reached Kamchatka we start sending colonists.

July-1499 through Junly 1500, brutal fighting in Memel and east prussia much of it with peasants, I think the are pissed that we steal their crops. finally bring 45,000 men and 50 cannon into east prussia after memel who East Prussia took for a bit is cleaned up.

August 1500, East Prussia is crushed there will be no Frederick the Great in this world. they are annexed and we recieve a small baltic fleet.

September 1500 we begin to postion for another Offensive against the Poles next year, we have 50 artilary in East prussia comfortably next to their capital.

Decmeber 1500 Isfahan Falls we move to Persias since we want that in the peace settlement.

February 1501 Persias falls we take that and the adjoining province form persia in peace settlement, we leave 40 cannon and 20,000 men resting comfortably next to their capital Isfahan, incase of war.

we are ready to take 2-3 more polish provinces. and have a small reserve army near sweden. our colony on the East Coast of Asia is successful. gold will start to pour in from there over time and there is a port to build a Pacific Fleet in the next Century or so. It is clear with Poland and Persia on the ropes firm alliances with Denmark and Crimea to mask our flanks and colonies north of china going up Russia will rule the world.

Ahhh Bloodlust works for the russians. And I am satiated.

BB

I am so bad with computers I do not know how to find out what my BB is. I am sure I am hated by all but my allies, but that does not matter, Denmark covers my northern Flank and Crimea my south, I will take out Persia, Poland and Hungary in the next 20 years if I continued. Having allies on your flank can be more valuable when you don't call them, for example I am busy in Europe so if Turkey is part of a declaring alliance I will not call my allies, and they cannot reach me through the Crimea, And anytime by forcing peace on austria or Hungary they cannot reach me anywhere since eruope access is denied.

But I digress lol... I do not know my BB

Off to start a Prussian Grand Campaign.
