Fun campain!

To the perm of Eire:
- Stabcost was too high, went for serfdom. Next time, I think centralization is the right choise
- Minted and builded a lot of CC, those will be needed to keep a bigger army (very low MP-pool).
- Inflation is now at 2,0 %, no problem
- Colonizing in Canada almost finnished
- Only one or two provinces left in the central of NA to colonize
- Build some refeneries (to help TE)
- Build some more troops
- As I understand, the pagan provinces you have will get the right culture and religion after some years. Therefor, no conversions in those provinces. When those provinces convert and get the right culture, build taxcollectors and governors there
- Building chief judges this late in the game does not pay off, so I didn´t build any
- Traded, traded and traded! Income is now 995 d a month! :D

Good luck! :)

Oh, and Bob - send me the right IP next time! ;)

I would like to point out at this time that there is definetely a conspiracy of Russian players. I am attacked by Austria (Jonesy) and Russia (Sher) and then during the war Sher's rebels are dealt with by France (Deil), now I don't have anything against this but I think that the world at large should be informed of this evil power block in Europe. :D

Excellent work Cobjor! Exactly according to plan. Although I would have promoted those chief judges. It is matter of prestige if nothing else :D

I appear to have been promoted to perm in Eire is some way although I have never formally said OK to that. I would like to play them but as you know I have another game on Friday evenings. You may consider me semiperm for the first half but you really should get another player as a real perm.

Further more, next Friday is Midsummer holiday in Sweden, we celebrate the Summer solstice. It is arguably the most important party-night in Sweden. All Swedes get drunk. Thus I won't be able to play next Friday. And I just heard from Elio he will be gone for Summer vacation.

So, a very little AAR due to my bad English and lacking any events.
Nothing serious were made in France. Relations with other nations were improved by different ways - such as killing rebels. France pursues the policy of peace. Maybe it was the first session without any wars. Naval and land tehs were improved, also a fleet reform were made, so France's fleet is big and powerful.

I edited cores and deflation to Irish E. as AAR bonus. Waiting for other AARs ...
Nabuko could write an AAR for Morocco at war ... tell him it by ICQ.
I slept rebels in the game, so China trouble can be solved by Bob.
I'll edit a link here for Bob to get the edited save before next friday for Bob.
About the absence of Irish player, pls contact Balinus if He's free to play.
P. S. Bob can ask an edit as possessor of Hellas ... pls edit a post about it.

@ Bob:
I edited prov Shanxi in order to annex China (1 prov) after last siege at the start of next session.
I think that editing a lot of infantry to You could modify the result of war in progress now (what about a money price?), np for conversion. Where is Your AAR ?

Mephisto has badboy at 52 and no edited AAR .

Krios was dying, how a titan could die he did not know and he felt betrayed by it. But he still had some strength left and so he called forth the last remnants of his gift and threw his spirit to the sands of time and space, to find a new leader for Sibir, someone with onmipotent power and wisedom.

Until he realized he had no magic left and so he chose a man with blind chance and teleported him to the glorious capital of Orsk as his flame left him, he had done all he can for his people and had given them at least a chance at survival. His body collapsed in upon itself as the countryside shook with the sheer energy of his passing.



I awoke disorientated in a lavishly appointed room, my clothes were as I remembered but they were the only thing that was. The sky was bluer and more cloudless than i remebered and it was awfully hot but with a feirce wind blowing from the plains outside. I tried to remember what had happened but all I could remember was kneeling before the Queen Victoria and receiving my knighthood for my gallant services in the Boer War. But this wa not Buckingham palace- hell it wasn't even England from the looks of things.

A small tanned and quick eyed little man was watching him apprehensively, he started speaking quickly in a strange foreign tongue. I was of course fluent in the languages of all the major countries of the world, even Mandarin and Japanese- stupid asians they had to have a different alpahabet didn't they?

This was vaguey remininscent of Russian, what with their strange language and completely different alphabet. I poked him a few times till he started speaking again and made "slower" motions with my hands- hmm I could understand it-just

"My mighty lord and master I am at your slightest command..." he then broke up as he started babbling about his unworthyness and so on. Very dull listening I can tell you. I managed to question him after he had run out of breath and started to suffocate on his pleas for mercy.

" so where am I? and who the hell are you and what language are you mangling?"

he was delightfully unifromative, difficult to say straight facts while hitting your head on the stone floor as a gesture of subservience I guess. I could gleam from him that we were in the citadel of Allah in the steppes of Russia in the nation of Sibir. Now as a true english gentleman I had a superb grasp of Geography and History and I knew that the nation of Sibir had not existed for over 300 years and the land it once occupied was under the rule of the autocratic Czars of russia. So I had 3 options 1) I was part of a trick with an unknown purpose ( probably threatening Queen and country though) 2) I had gone back in time or 3) Some powerful being had dragged me into an alternate reality. I had also found out that it was approximately 1700 years snce the death of Christ (well he talked about Allah actually, but being ignorant peasents I will assume that you don't know the Moslem years) so this left either options 1) or 3) and so I then proceded under the impression that I was in fact in an alternate universe as this would present the most difficulties, if it was a feeble joke then he was only playing along anyway.

And so my rule of the Sibirians began, they were far behind any semblance of civilization so I set about teaching them proper British conduct and honour, this bore fruit nearly immediately as we reached a stage I will call infrastructure 0.6 (1.0 being the lowest any decent man would tolerate). I held a formal banquet at my court in the wastelands of siberia-not great directions since most of it is wasteland. However my invitation to the foreign dignitaries proved most enlightening. The Austrian and Russian ones refused to show up at all, this combined with the large numbers of Russian spies crossing my border made me lay aside my trust in humanity and I began to build up defences along the Ukraine.
My conversations with the Mughal titan and the Omanese Titan were very helpful and I assured them that Sibirian expansion had been completed and that we should remain on friendly terms to keep control of Asia and Africa for the glory of Allah (I myself am a confirmed atheist but sometimes appearances must be maintained).
Ireland sent 3 different ambassadors which rather confused me, however all of them were too drunk on our vodka brewed from sheeps goat that they didn't notice-damn drunken Irish, look what they got into without British rule.
After exchanging pleasentries with the rest of that bunch of pseudo-gods (and the French king who acts like a one) I talked to the venetian doge who was most helpful and offered a rather nice cigar case and so we got along famously.

However my intutiton had not failed me on the Russian front and they did indeed declare war on my barbarian country with their allies Austria. Now after ascending the throne I of course implemented a lot of reforms especially in the Army and we were now the equal of any other power in technology-and of course we had one major advantage the hordes of drunken sheep farming cannon fodder. However despite my training the armies had to pull back from Bulgaria and the Ukraine to narrow the front for the Russian and austrians and allow my reserve troops time to march to the front. The war progressed reasonably well for me and my armies as we penetrated deep into Russia during the spring and summer and managed to pull back before General Winter set in, learned that from old Bonesy's attack on Moscow. However this required pinpoint commanding on my part as Russian after Russian army was annhilated thanks to careful manuervering by myself-war of manourver is actually something that the remnants of the horde can do rather well, good luck trying to make them march in ranks though, there is always one fellow who wants to be different-when I send that man into Russian cannon fire the rest of the battalion usually does what I tell them though. With my attention distracted Austria had basically free rein throughout the Balkans, this was halted by the bravery of the Doge of Italy who made a flanking attack on the Austrian capital and allowed me and my Greek Mercenaries to recapture the territory in the Hungarian mountains.
The war had raged on for 4 years and the Russian leader had been killed by a shot from one of my crack sniper teams-ungentlemanly I know but he was an immortal blood-drinking Titan so normal rules do not apply. However he merely rose back a year later, some outdated concept of bravery influenced him to keep leading his cavarly charges which was to have consquences later.

However by this time Russia were being pushed back to Moscow itself and its armies were being sustematically crushed each spring. So in the May of 1745 I lead an army to take Moscow and finally crush the Russian will to fight, we fought outside Vilna with both armies of roughly the same size, however my training in the war of manouvre had seen to it that I had substanial reonforcements coming in from the East and South. Although the heavily entrenched Russians held out in the village for over a week I managed to get the Russian titan to coming on another wild charge on to my "weakened" troops, who had just been reinforced by the newly arrived troops.

It was a massacre, the tired and hungry russian troops fought hard but the slaying of their mighty titan by a peasent with a musket was a killing blow that caused a wave of panic and tramblings that allowed our cavarly to utterly annihilate the Russian Grand Army, the way to Moscow is open and beyond that is the city of St. Petersburg...


Well that was a long AAR, can I have a +1 fire bonus for my general? as it took so much effort and their is now a logical reason for it :)

The End of Mughal's Expansionism 1723 - 1737


Mughal empire at 1723 was nearly to the end of finish his expansionism in Asia.
The expansionism in Oceania had been finished few years ago, with the anexion of Mataram.

After that, Hyperion only needed to annex two countries more to finish his dream of unification of central Asia. These two countries were Tibet, a vassal of us, and Taungu, a Vassal of Tibet.
The two anexions had been peacefully.
So, the first action had been the diploanexion of Tibet(1725). After that, Taungu, passed to be free. So, we increased our relations with them. After a year, we persuaded them and we obtained a Vassallage(1726).
After 10 years(1736), we obtained the diploannexion of Taungu.

Refering in economy, we increased our year income substancially. Passing to 8.800 at 1723, to 11.100 at 1737. A increasion of 26 %.
That have been posible thx to the anexion of Tibet and Taungu, the conversions in indochina( now 75 % sunnite), and new manufactures built in some areas as Bangkok, Bombay ....

We started to build some CC for increase a bit more our powerful manpower. And we hope to arrive some day at 700 of manpower. Now is nearly 600. About our maximum support of troops, now is a bit more of a MILION! :p

Our next intentions, is finish the conversions in progress.(Convert all provinces with a cost less than 1000). The others will be by edit. Make some CC more, like regions with 12.000 or more recluitament. Make some manufactures, like 1 naval,1 goods and 1 of weapons.
Try to keep 20.000 ducats or more if it's posible.
Start to invest in trade and infra 10 when the cost be 130.000 aproximetly.
Don't do wars, our expansionism have been finished. Now we should decrease our higher badboy.



Edit: My badboy is in the limit 52/52. And i haven't in mind more wars, so i prefer do another edit as the conversion of awadh, next to Delhi. If u think is more appropiate edit my badboy, then do it. Thx ;)

Venetian AAR:
Venice yet again became embroiled in war versus our ancient enemy, Austria. The Evil Austrians and Russians decided to bully the great nation of Sibir, as it was a 2v1 the honest Venetian government decided to help Sibir as best as she could. This meant war versus Austria. As Venice had the surprise she quickly gained several provinces and killed several Austrian armies, however then the tricky part came, holding onto those gains. Venice claimed Schwyz and Bern (and 2 colo's) and as Venetian troops triumphed and the Emperor realised that he had more pressing issue at hand (war vs Sibir) he agreed to these demands and peace was declared. These new lands have abundant iron and so it is hoped that Venice's Great Manufactory program may be extended to these lands too, though it is unlikely seeing that there arent many years left.

Hellas is also still faraway and I presume there may indeed be a mad rush in the end to acquire it (or so I hope - to keep in the spirit of this "special" game), Spain is really the one blocking our route to it and unfortunately France has now got very close relationship with Spain (could it be Hellas France promised Spain in return for vassalship?!?!?! :O). So it will indeed be hard to get to Hellas and a war with France may be inevitable :O, which will be a hard battle indeed and sad as France has forever been Venice's ally although now it seems she has turned her back on Venice and gone to her old rivals, Spain and to some extent Austria.

- inflation please

I may have to leave a bit earlier (perhaps an hour) tomorrow Im afraid - not 100% sure yet, Ill try and get a sub, if I cant ill jsut let Ven be zombie/ai.
