Turkish AI thinks poland is the main opponent, which is good for you.
Maybe you could even demand 3 provicnes this time.

I hadn't seen... seems that the Ottomans have expanded far to the east... that makes a lot of provinces for them to draft soldiers in. Are you oing to try to settle for peace with what you've captured ? or try to drag them into a long war ? A long war could mean getting Bosnia and other provinces before signing peace... but means you'll risk loosing everything depending on their manpower... interresting dillema
You will all be pleasantly surprised with the outcome, don't worry. You'll see in a few days/a week.

Dear Diary,
Two weeks after Turk assassins took out Miroslav Lablonec his army assaulted and overran Saloniki, slaying every turk they could find. Greeks were mostly left untouched.
By the 20th of May all regiments of the ordered Emegrency army were recruited and ordered to unite in Slavonia, where they were officially formed into one army under General Jan Brno in early September.
The advance into the Ottoman Empire has continued steadily so far. In the Balkan only Constantinople and Greece are not yet under our control. Poland wasn't doing as well as us, but they too had advanced into what was formerly Muscowy and Crimea.
Today Poland quit the war getting Moldova and Dniepr in the peace deal. This leaves us in a weakened position of course as the Ottoman armies left in the east will now return to the Balkans.
On a side note news arrived today that our missionaries in Tarrapaca were successful.

Seems now that the long-run war will be difficult, unless you try a war of positions.
I see France owns Skane and Gotland...

ottomans have lost many province, still they are not even exhausted from the long war... they must be huge...
Keep conquering!
Maybe blockades would help?

At least Poland got some provinces. Every little snip makes the Ottomans a little weaker.
@comagoosie: I think that's because they are so much larger then me in terms of provinces. Also take a look at the enormous difference between my cavalry and theirs now that Poland is out of the war. And lastly, as I am the attacking force, my manpower must be smaller then the Turks by far (I started with about 100k and I'm down to 40k by now, don't know about the Ottomans)
@stnylan: I'll get my share in the end
@Enewald: Indeed they are huge, but they are also way behind in tech, otherwise I could not pull this off on my own. As for blockades, I just don't have the fleets for that.
@gigau: Wait and thou shalt see Also I detest France, but I am sadly unable to do anything about it.

Constantinople falls yet again, hope you get some good territory from the Ottomans this time.
@rcduggan: Constantinople hasn't fallen yet, but it isn't the capital of the Ottoman Empire anymore, that's Edirne (in Rumelia) now. But another update is coming and then we will occupy Constantinople again!
@Enewald: Everything in it's own time. I've only a small amount of ports now. I might start building a decent fleet after this war.

Dear Diary,
Even during winter conditions our armies continued their march into Ottoman Greece and liberated Epiros and Thessalia in January.
Even greater success came in March when Constantinople was again taken as in the earlier war against the Ottomans.
However lately things have turned. Not long after we took Constantinople enemy armies crossed the Bosporus and reconquered the city and Rumelia, with the Ottoman capital Edirne. Luckily General Aleksandr Lablonec could turn the tide and took back at least Rumelia.
Another drawback was a lost battle in Silistria, where Jan Brno fought Erol Barbaros, probably one of the best Ottoman generals. Despite a small advantage in numbers Jan Brno had no chance to defeat the superior Ottoman general. While the Silistria battle was going on Lablonec took control of Constantinople again and the advance in Greece continued with the capture of Athens.
As always wars are terrible on the normal population, even when the war is fought far away from home. As a result gnosticism spread in Westfalen.
And in Reichenberg Castle at the Court our adviser Gottfried Leibnitz spoke against the war and against his King and employer! He was sent to prison where he can think whether he will continue his actions agaisnt Bohemia or stay a loyal adviser tot he Throne.
