so, 1.6 million support limit before Africa got connected, so what's it now?


Oh, and the political mapmode is much better on the eyes, soothing green ;)

Malborough is doing his thing in Persia, onwards to India and China. Find some provinces in the middle east with good manpower raising power and build conscription centres and churn out armies for Malborough to use.

Owning Toubkal and getting those swedish manufactories must be nice, good job. Now only a Civil War can stop you, I think.

Very nice, though I would actually prefer not to be gaining those manus, because I hope to build a quillion-bzillion refineries and they would drive up the price of them...

And a civil war aint going to be happening :D

Well in 1689 it was 'only' 1.7 million, so in the end Africa didnt give as much as I though it would.... :( (really I didnt know what to expect, I had just assumed) ....England was Emperor by then also, though I dont know if that increased it at all?

Meh...reds pretty

Rebel?? Off with their heads...we can get new mapmakers


Grundius said:
Marlborough rules man! You beat that Persian army with almost no losses!

Yeah I know :D, great thing is he can run around in a small infantry army and win assault after assault (with few losses) where others would fail :D

He is a beast. I may do that or perhaps just have a continual cycle of tranports fleets dropping off 30k troops at a time, we'll see.

I already miss the old uniforms... :(

BTW, which is the smallest religion in your realm?

New ones are much, much better :D :D :D

Reformists...I think six or seven provinces.....I reckon I'll just target them in future and forget about everyone else...the entire game weve only had one random conversion, and that was in a pagan province with a missionary :( :eek: :eek: :D

It says something of the game that the last free Christian nation in Europe proper (the Knights don't count) is Sweden.

sick support limit there ;)

If ever you managed to handle enough to get a peace, you could destroy the rest of the world in a single war. But I don't think you'll do that ;)

I think Croatia is still in existence. The Knights went through your largest army until it wasn't there. Continuous waves of assault troops and garrison are the "best" solution to Rhodes as eventually an assault will succeed, though you look to have better uses for those troops right now.

You've been reading Farquharson's AAR about Incompetent King's Regents and Paltry Scottish armies.

The Act of Union in 1707 took place during the reign of Queen Anne.

Scotland's complaint seems to have been English domination of the Union and here you are telling us how Scotland has dominated the Union. Examples of said domination would be most useful in educating your fellow Scots.


Well indeed generally England DID and DOES dominate the Union; and long have we Scots felt that perhaps having devolved regional parliaments might be a better way to go.

I merely meant that the Unification of the Realms of Scotland and England began with the Scottish Monarchy becoming Kings of England; therefore technically it was Scotland who "won"...
To support that I only pointed out there were times under several monarchs where Scotland held extrodinary influence over The Empire (tm) and in effect dominated the Union.

Many of the greatest Rulers in the Empires history were Scottish or Scottish in their hearts; the Greatest Queen the Empire ever knew (Queen Vicky) was famously in love with Scotland and all things Scottish, one of the Empires most brilliant Prime Ministers - William Gladstone - was a Scot, and other Scot Monarchs and Prime Ministers were regarded as competent if not "great"...

Im sure during these periods where their rulers seemed to be more interested in Scottishness than Britishness that the English might have felt that Scotland unfairly held influence over the Union; just as Scotland felt like England unfairly dominated for the rest of the time.
The fact that we were very much the junior partner in the Union and in effect a "small" nation - the fact that we were able to exercise any sort of influence over the Union was remarkable.

EDIT:

Anyway not to hijack the thread.

Good progess for The Empire (tm). Well done.

Free??? To be English is free, anything else is to be a slave.

:D Thanks...40 - 60 years are you kidding? or is this reverse pyschology ;) ....next posts are five more years....and I guess another five years after that we wil be firmly placed in Eastern Asia.

I considered slowing down abit and just keeping control of a couple of buffer states while WE gos down alittle....but why bother, just kill em all faster and WE will go down later :rofl:

Most certainly, I wonder what it will be when the earth is 100% owned.

:confused: Were already destroying the world in a single war, arent we more or less?

Croatia dead...I thinking I may leave Knights on for a while....and then go in with a genourmous army headed by a sick leader...Wellington perhaps, or the man....
