Well done Lamprey! :)

But perhaps you can enlighten the rest of the players as to the *true* nature of this war? Perhaps you can explain to them why there are Russians in Spain, but not in Austria or Germany? ;)

Probably because the UK threatened war should there *be* Russians in Austria or Germany :D

Or you could tell the truth...

I'm not invading Germany or Austria becuase I have no qualms against them. Spain and I, on the other hand, have unfinished business.

They become visible once you have the 1.03b patch. Paradox website only has 1.03 for download, the 1.03b is downloaded from these forums. It's a sticky in general discussions.

The kaiser has just commissioned a new portrait, actually. It hangs in the Reichstag and gets dusted off in between wars :cool:

Except that we aren't fighting, or did you forget that already?

Anyway, here's a little version of my own:

Quick and dirty, and for humor only, since the UK isn't involved in this war. :D

But with propaganda like this, it seems you're trying to get me p**sed of enough to join :rofl:

Besides, it just looks like Leia's wearing a mask; you can do better, Mem, and I rather pictured AUS or SPA as Leia to PRU's Luke ;)

:D Rfaiki

Oh, oops, my mistake then. Germany'll just garrison the borders I guess, though if the OE falls, with luck the rest shouldn't be far behind.

The time of peace has come... Its time to build up an industry for every nation. The Ottomans will stay out of conflicts in the coming era as long as it isnt in their influence sphere...

I swear I remember someone said peace in our time, etc. etc...

I can't believe you guys started another almost world war, only UK and Sweden aren't in the war yet.

Europe Ablaze might as well be renamed to Europeans drown in blood ;)

Seems like I missed some {furious?} conversations...

Well I will post some facts about the OE now, to tell all people here whats my position...

1) The OE was the last session busy building up a large economy, and has builded lots and lots of RRs...
2) The OE will continue to industrialise next sessions and thats our main priority at the moment...
3) The OE is trying to stay out of player-player wars and thats why we didnt prolongue many of our alliances...
4) The OE has no Casus Belli against anyone at the moment, so we might be peaceful next session... (can you imagine, a peaceful strategist ;) )
5) The OE is however increasing its army to make sure it will not stay unarmed in case of a war...
6) The OE is aiming to become at least #5th next session...
7) The OE will get a lot of prestige next session from colonisation...
8) The OE is unlikely to join another worldwide caolition again in the future...
9) The OE will keep an eye on each of its neighbours...
10) The OE.......... :D


In regards to #4, no :D

Was it OE or another nation said peace in our time? :)

Actually, it wasn't ALL war! The Franco-Prussian war of 1871 involved 3 divisions of Prussians walking to Paris unopposed, cursing the slow French rail system. Afterwards provinces were exchanged as per the deal between France & Prussia (now Germany!) and the "peaceful war" ended with all involved content with the outcome.

Calling that little Prussian stroll across the French countryside a war is stretching it quite a bit ;)

Anyway; could someone clarify as to exactly how the various countries got dragged into the current war? Who declared what on who and so forth? It escaped me a bit during the session ;)
