God, I can't wait to get this during the Steam sales. I'll have to try to convince my friends to try it as well, so we can try an epic campaign. Of course, it will probably take quite a bit of time to actually learn how to play (Crusader Kings II took 20+ hours to actually learn the basics, for me)

I've been harassing them to get CKII for months now.

The Free Cities of the Hanseatic League shall continue to live throughout the coming days! United we stand to defend our sovereignty! We left the tyranny of our oppressing Emperor who blinded us for so long of his treachery. Finally we are free and live in peace with the mighty Dutch and French kings. Our colonies in Africa are growing and the wealth of Lübeck shall never stop. Our office might have been moved to Antwerpen but forever shall the heart of the Hanoverian people be the Elbe. Onward Germans! Onward to the future and for the freedom to live as we see fit! The Hanseatic Mercenaries shall defend you to the bitter end if the need be. We are the Last Free People of Europe not corrupted by the Austrian dogs tongues.

- Statthalter Herbert von der Fechte von der Tagfahrt, Bürgermeister der Bürgermeister, Aldermann der Hanse, Bürgermeister von Lübeck, Fürst-Bürgermeister der Baltischen Republik, Fürst-Bürgermeister der Republik Al-Djazair, Fürst-Bürgermeister der Republik Madagaskar, Fürst-Bürgermeister der Suahelischen Republik, Schirmherr der Friesen, und Beschützer des Freistaates.



PS: If you haven't noticed, I've gotten quite fond of my Hansa :p Really looking forward to this session ^^

Made that correct German and added the appropriate title Aldermann der Hanse.

I applaud the oxymoron in: "Fürst-Bürgermeister" ;)

Go, Hansa, go!

Edit: BTW, Hannoveraner is a breed of horses, not sure why they need protection, but go ahead!

What would it be then? I can't be the defender of the germans since I am like the smallest german nation :p Besides wouldn't a citizen of the Kingdom of Hanover be an Hanoverian?
Also thanks :laugh:

By this point maybe I should start referring to Hansa as a Confederacy or Federation?

EDIT: Though Oberbürgermeister or Regierender Bürgermeister maybe fits better?
Also just noticed I missed my most priced possession, the Baltic Republic.

Ah, that's the problem with the subcultures you guys put into the German culture (I guess they are similar in EU VI as in EU III?). The inhabitants of the Kingdom of Hannover as well as an inhabitant of the city of Hannover indeed would be a "Hannoveraner", I guess. Culturally, the inhabitants of this area (as well as the areas covered by Hamburg, Luebeck etc) are Westsachsen/Niedersachsen.

Also thanks :laugh:

Always willing to give some German language support, if required.

Hansa (or "Hanse" in German) already implies that it is a federation.

EDIT: Though Oberbürgermeister or Regierender Bürgermeister maybe fits better?

No, don't! That's modern titles that you wouldn't find during the EU period.

Changed it to Defender of the Free States

I need something for Ostfriesland, I am kind of Lord Protector there, for now I have taken Regierender Bürgermeister but if you got better suggestion :p

I believe mincemeat would be the correct denomination.

Will be fun to see what I can expand into my title this session :p I had thought to finish of Algeria and Tunisia though.

I admit it, my Plattdütsch is not what it used to be.

Good one with "Bürgermeister der Bürgermeister", has a very classy feeling to it. Some little adjustments again. "Schirmherr" covers lord/ruler and protector quite well, I think it is better to be lord-protector of a people (the (Eastern)Frisian) than of a landscape.

You could call him "Hackfleisch" or maybe "Geschnetzeltes" ;), but then I want a screenie showing that the glorious Hanse has been made to mincemeat :)
