So first real game since Rule Britannia. Wanted to try out the new Innovativness mechanic and naval doctrine, also colonization since I enjoy that. So here is my surprisingly powerful Denmark.

A few interesting things happened this game so far. I allied Novgorod to keep Muscovy away from me for as long as possible. Novgorod didn't call me into a war against Muscovy? I assume they declared an offensive war against them and didn't feel like the needed my help? Anyway they lost four provinces, however then non-PLC Lithuania balkanized and Novgorod went on a conquering spreed with my help and grabbed a large part of ex-Lithuania, so now they are far more powerful than before.

Now I was planing to do a chill colonization/innovate game, play with boats and such. I only allied Castile to keep Great Britain away from my stuff, so when I got a surprise PU over Castile (had to fight Great Britain over it, took the Highlands from them in the peace deal) I realized I might as well grab that Iron Price achievement I have never gotten around to get. Also jumped from like 6th world power to 3rd. Ottomans rivalled me so I allied the Baguettes so their Doom Legions can keep the Ottomans away. So with the power of Castile and French Doom Troopers, my current game plan is to colonize, build boats, murder Great Britain, rampage around northern Germany, rampage around Asia and finally save all of Europe by bringing a coalition of nations down upon the Ottomans and blockade all their ports for like a decade to spite them.
