Am i correct when i assume Granada gained Gibraltar in their war against Castille? Anyways, remember, a strong Granada could work as a buffert against Aragon-Portugal =)

demokratickid: Now i only need money to create the grand fleet of the republic.

Enewald: I only need money to win this war.

urdh: Conquering Africa is my main goal. Granada is going for re-reconquista.

Taklagarn: Fezians?

Tjena Med Laxen: I do not know, but it is more likely that Gibraltar defected to Granada.

Update is coming soon.

Part 2
The glorious 2nd army

Then we last left 2nd army it bravely retreated from Aragon homeland and is now relaxing at the beach in Murcia. Aragon army which consists of 13 regiments is relaxing in Granada province.

I get military access from Castille at -200 relationship. They must secretly love me.
EU3_185.jpg


I decide to harass Portugal and to destroy their 16 regiment army.
EU3_187.jpg


Oops. But I notice that Portugal is out of man power and in couple of month I attack again.
EU3_189.jpg


This time the dice are on my side. I win but 2nd army is left whit no morale. I move my 2nd army to Caceres where some freshly baked cookies are waiting for them.
EU3_195.jpg


We are finally at max stability.
EU3_199.jpg


Aragon decides to invade my homeland using Portugal tactic.
EU3_201.jpg


The invasion continues. Aragon sends its troops from Granada province. I smell an opportunity or gas, but currently my 2nd army is dancing the dance of death whit Portugal.
EU3_205.jpg


Portugal trips and the dance of death ends whit the destruction of their 16 regiment army. I try to spread siege Portugal, but Portugal quickly builds a small army and Aragon send a big one. 2nd army moves to retake Granada and Cadiz provinces and to capture Gibraltar.

EU3_210.jpg


Out of 13 regiments Aragon leaves 2. They are easily destroyed and I start to siege the provinces.

3-3-1440: My loyal level 2 reputation advisor dies.

I decide to use my conquistador before he dies. Off he goes to explore unknown lands escorted by one regiment of cavalry. His funeral was held 1 day before he left.
EU3_218.jpg


Aragon is trying to use spam tactic.
EU3_219.jpg


I discover Mali and immediately get military access.
EU3_221.jpg


I get this nasty event. I choose the lesser of two evils and pay 30 ducats.
EU3_222.jpg

EU3_223.jpg


But rebels decide to appear anyway.
EU3_226.jpg


I am forced to retreat. They continue my siege, capture the province and score a goal.
Rebels 2 : Morocco 0
EU3_227.jpg


I win my first sieges and destroy the rebels.
EU3_229.jpg

EU3_230.jpg

EU3_231.jpg


While traveling conquistador accidentally gets in a fight.
EU3_232.jpg


After sieging for more then a year i decide that 2nd army needs to harass Portugal again.
EU3_235.jpg


More spam from Aragon.
EU3_236.jpg


Earlier conquistador discovered a small nation of Ashanti whit little land, small army and a big bank. 5 regiments of cavalry should be enough to secure a loan.
EU3_237.jpg


I think i harassed Portugal enough for this time. Aragon is next.
EU3_238.jpg


Granada is finally free... i mean the province not the nation.
EU3_239.jpg


Moroccans are salty man of the sea. All those land battles mean nothing to Moroccans.
EU3_240.jpg


Aragon says no to harassment also they send 15 regiments. I fink retreat is an option.
EU3_242.jpg


Granada has started the re-reconquista.
EU3_244.jpg


I finally have fuel for the war machine.
EU3_248.jpg


I spend my money on building 2 regiments of cavalry in Spain, 3 transport, 1 big ship, 1 general who has decent stat and a bottle of rum.

Your writing style is very enjoyable :)

How is you research going compared to the other Muslims - all those non-core provinces, the minting and the badboy/stability impaired trading should be a killer combo. I didn't notice you advancing in land any - you still somehow manage to win equal battles though - impressive!

Now that you have discovered that the Ashanti print money on a scale not to be seen until the XXI century Zimbabwe - shouldn't you go for Alexandria as soon as Portugal and Aragon are chastised?

Embargoing a spoon yielding maniac is not the way to go if you hold life dear - early XV century Mameluk saying.
