-the embargo is a good reason for war always expect a war if you embargo a trade nation
-alliance is again a relative good reason as england was irl busy alot with "balance" in europe


Bah! England has so many monopolies and makes so much money with trade already that the meager, crowded COT in Venice can't possibly make a difference for him. It's obvious he's using the CB on Venice just to go after Spanish colonies. Everyone can see that. Senseless, by the way, because he could have had a share of Portugal's colonies just by asking.

And about balance of power, "France + Netherlands + Ottoman threat" is more than balance for "Spain + Austria + Venice". There are no reasons for him to intervene. Not to mention his home fleet is so huge by now that he wouldn't be threatened even if the whole of Europe was united against him.

Good for you! Spain failed 3 times already in Bearn, in spite of burning people at the stake in every hamlet. Maybe we should hire French missionaries.. :)

No, I meant "Ottoman threat". You are not formally allied, but no one doubts that either of you would take advantage of the opportunity to backstab Spain and Austria if we were in a war.

As for BB, well he's out, isn't he? And whatever BB-Austria arrangement is clearly unstable, as they'll soon start squabbling over German provinces.

3 reasons for dow.

1 - dont like embargo
2 - dont like your alliance (too big)
3 - dont like your religion

demmands - lift of embargo and 1000 comtensation for lost earnings. Demmands will inrease though as soon as this war starts costing money. If you really drag it out then i may start asking for provs.

Those reasons are not enough. England is already the richest nation in world. One embargo won't do a thing, escecially when Gak said he can lift oft the embargo around 1610

Petition: Random leaders.

I was thinking in 2 generals OR 1general - 1 admiral OR 2 admirals per 20 years

I'd say a 4 4 4 as common. minimum as 2 2 2.

of course, historical leaders won't be deleted.

Then those random leaders would live 10-20 years (a session time usually)

discuss it. we would be using them in 1650, no random leaders after 1750

Sounds like a good idea, in principle. I wonder why in the 1650-1750 period only, though. It may not be entirely fair to countries like France that have excellent leaders in that period, because it would slightly reduce their edge. Otherwise I'm up for it. How'd you generate them random?

If i wanted spanish colonies then i would list them in my demmands. you can avoid war now by ending embargo and paying compensation for lost trade. If not then we will fight. Simple..

Well, the City Council of Venice does not even dare to take the word "compensation" in its mouth. For how could Venice, probably the poorest player nation of the game, offset the largest trading nation in the world with pocket fluff! That would be a serious offence against the honourable (?) British people.

It seems venice is happy to let his allies fight this out on his behalf even though it is he he caused this war. to prove that i am not after spanish colonies i will sep peace spain and austria if they want. An example must be made of your venice. Tade embargos are bad for all. i dont embargo anyone and i dont expect you to either.

Gak, you're so dependant right now, I suggest you lift embargo to England no matter what, even if you believe England would make you poorer in the trade aspect, a war would make you the poorest for ages :)

Spain is pleased that England chose a wiser policy. Venice should lift the embargo as soon as he deems practical. But the idea of 'compensations' is just preposterous. What was lost before England decided to make its (rough) request is just lost. It should have been asked sooner. Past is past. Let's get over it.
