Will the next season start right after this one ends? Or after the DLC is released? Or even after that?

You'll just have to wait and see.. but trust me, it's going to be fuuuunn!

You must fix ugly borders before it ends...

How does ForzaA afford his army?

If he builds most of his troops from provinces with Treasuries and has quantity, he can easily afford 400k troops (with about 180K inf, 40k Calvary and 180k cannons) for about 100~120 ducats a month... Pretty darn decent if I do say so myself.

I've got a LFL of 382, currently supporting 399 (243/5/151)- army maintenance of around 150, quantity, grain depot, and treasuries in my recruitment provinces.
Navy's a LOT more expensive actually.

Great to the stats! Any of the devs care to tell us what happened from their perspective. What happened in that epic standoff in Alsace-Lorraine?

The war you guys were watching ended after we occupied Netherlands 100%, forced him to give up a bunch of provinces... but ended up being stab hitted out of the main war for Oldenburg due to battle warscore. Then followed another war in which we took five more provinces from Netherlands, followed by another war in which we lost two, and now we're on the Fifth World War which we are comfortably winning. The last few remaining years are likely just going to be more of these wars, which tend to come down to whoever botches a battle since battles give crazy amounts of warscore when you have millions of soldiers fighting.

My explanation really does not do justice to how tense these wars are, though.

I feel a bit silly as the only one fighting (and succeeding) to let him live.. :)

I can hardly be faulted for assuming that "talk to Alexivan" means Alexivan decides..

(that, and assuming gratitude lasts 400 years would be.. perhaps a bit optimistic if nothing is done to rekindle said gratitude)

That said.. Machiavelli had it right; "If an injury has to be done to a man, it should be so severe that his vengeance need not be feared".
which basically leaves only one decision; whether the injury has to be done or not.

OMG that battle of Fyn!!!!!!! who's bright idea was it to attack the danish army? they should have just stood theire ground and occupied the rest of Danish Europe. By the way i would love to see you guys do a mega campaign (mainly cos i want to see how good you guys are at victoria 2 :D) that would be really cool. i look forward to the next chaotic lets play.

We just blitzed for lolz since the game was ending. Not the type of offensive we would ever have done otherwise :) We also declared war in a truce and totally disregarded attrition etc.

Only regret is it ruined my end of game window stats, since I did have by far the largest army in the world (600k+) before I killed half of it by the insane attrition and the Fyn battle :D

Vassalizing Spain, Austria and the Netherlands did wonders for my (already high) land force limit, I can tell you..
