The king is dead. Long live the king !
Blimey ! A lot of events for the last part of its reign ! Nice way of summary though.

Cat, that's the price you pay for free subjects and a revolt risk of 6% in all provinces with different culture... 
The events were purely random, but great fun. And the shipyard thing was actually reaching naval tech 11.
Lt. Tyler: Thanks! Glad to see you still reading.

So, let me get this straight. Christian does not repent his sin? I'm just wondering, since he seemed to be very unsure of his sinful actions....
That was certainly a new way of doing things. Confession as a narrative tool....

I don't know, SM, but there's something kind of obscene about that statement...
Norg, that last post was wonderful. I really enjoyed the by-play between the two protagonists. The question begs to be asked: Did he go to Hell?
Secret Master: I'm quite sure he was unrepentant... Being a king by the will of God and all.
Lord Durham: If there is such a thing as hell, I'm quite sure that Christian would be there together with The Horned One, dousing others in BBQ sauce and playing Bee Gees at full strength. That probably says something about my visions of hell, though...

Norg, to me endless hell is listening to rap music and watching endless episodes of Survivor.

I can agree on survivor....
Great job Norgsvenn!!
I liked the way you told about the events like the others
The Question of Events
Right...
I've been fiddling in Word Pad again. Wrote up a few new Danish events yet to be included in the event file.
One deals with "Scandinavian Supremacy", adding Sweden's provinces to the cores of Denmark, if I own them.
The payoff is 500 ducats to appease the nobles of Sweden.
Secondly, I've scripted an event that gives Denmark German culture if Oldenburg, Bremen, Mecklemburg and Vorpommern are held in 1680.
Costs? - 3 stability and +3 revoltrisk for 48 months.
Are these acceptable to you, the public, or are they just a refined way of cheating?

The Swedish event that gives you CB shields is more than reasonable. If Russia can get CB shields and events that let them unify all Russian provinces, all the French minors get events for all the French provinces, then CB shields all over Scandinavia is reasonable for Denmark. (Or Norway, or Sweden).
German culture? That might be unbalancing in the game, simply because so many wealthy provinces are German.

But Denmark was ruled by a german family and was very influenced by german culture, so it could be defended allthough I agree it could unbalance things
Phew. Now I´ve read the entire thread. It was hard work, but definitely worth it. I don´t have to tell you it´s great, do I?

Well, if Sweden can get baltic (!!) culture for controlling that portion, why not Danish german culture, since they are so culturally close and all. Conclusion? If countries can get abstract cultures just because that area of land was controlled historically, why cant Norg give Denmark german culture for controlling german lands? Its not cheating, its ROLEPLAYING!
Ummm.. Karl X of Sweden was from Pfalz. Does that warrant giving Sweden German culture? No, of course not.
I don't want to start any controversies here.
So, I'll refrain from adding German culture. That would give me a whopping 12 extra manpower too. I just checked.
Oleg, thanks for the compliment. It's much appreciated.
Right... I'd better get going on those Righteous BastAARds as well.

Norg- I gotta agree about the events, the Scandinavian Union one makes sense, German culture doesn't. Anyway, you're still doing a fine job with this- don't stop
Bah, if Lorraine can get german culture from having one german CB-shield then surely Denmark can get one as well, although I would probably put the end-date at 1530, and then add an event removing it in 1610:s or 1650:es with ahistorical costly cop-out.
[edit] Oh yeah, and Swedish union event should have -2 or -3 centralization to mollify the nobles. Maybe a cop-out that doesn't give CB-s but instead revolt-risks and + to centralization and some other boosts for keeping tight reins.

I say go ahead with them. If its makes the game fun to play (or ROLEPLAY as someone said earlier ) then do it. Although maybe CBs instead of culture.
But, APU, great work
) then do it. Although maybe CBs instead of culture.But, APU, great work
I would say yes to CB shields, no to German culture, but as long as you keep the historical vignettes, I am happy man !
