Interesting that the GB/Castile plan worked so quickly. Crazy DOW by GB but it worked very nicely for you :)

Poor Iroquois, it ain't easy being Pagan :rofl:

What kind of name is that? :rofl:
I don't know about the second part, but there really was a fellow named Opothleyahola. I remember this because I once did a paper on Civil War battles in Oklahoma (it was pretty short :D).

Wow, that was a crazy move by GB. How did the war between them and Castille work out? Poor Iroquois, too stupid to survive. :rofl: As was asked earlier, have you seen the Incas yet?

I haven't spotted the Incas. Nothing has happened in the war of Castille and GBR, except that Gbraltar is rebelling.

Just want to say thanks for your work on this, great read--especially for someone just learning the game.

I've been wanting to try out either the Cherokee or Aztecs, but a little worried about the difficulty in doing so.

Thanks again, definitely reading!

And as an answer, the british... send huge armies to Spain? Steal the remaining colonies? Go for naval supremacy over Spain? No! They declare war on ME!

Obviously they saw through you and decided you should pay for sending them straight to war with Spain. Sometimes the AI is a lot smarter than you think.;) Maybe it should have waited until the war with Spain was over though.:wacko:

Chapter Twelve: Punition

This is a bit shorter update.
Last time I conquered the Iroquis. But Holland is colonizing in the north and now borders us, so I decide to take the advantage of their high BB. There's no turning back:

creeksu.jpg


Holland + two landlocked nations. Not a big deal.

The war lasts for 2 years, and only two battles were fought. Finally in 1571, the war is over:

peaceyd.jpg


More colonies, now most of North America's coast is in my possession. Only few British colonies and one French colony remains.

secured.jpg


Secured. In the war against Holland my navy proved it's worth: my 18-ship navy destroyed the 24-ship Holland navy, containing some troops. Unfortunately it took heavy losses (only 6 ships remaining), and I'll build more.

But, but. I think I could be able to defend provinces in Europe. My yearly net gain is over 80, so I can easily raise an elite army (thanks to the recent land tech, giving me free shooters & mauricians). What do you think? Spain is in extremely instable situation...
