It all began in 1492 ..when yours truly the ruler of Spain with his cousin...the Esteemed Emperor of Austria..commonly knows as the Hapsburgers. From the beginning there was tense arguing over strategic positions and who wanted what..
But as the game began..the Turk stopped all voices as they put in their first bid for power.
1492.. May..
The Turkish Empire shocks all with a declaration of war upon the Venetian...Austria is shocked by this bold move..and moves its armies into position to defend its borders..
Myself i send Colombous to explore...while assembling an army to conquer the hafsidian empire..
This is easily done..adding both the hafsidian army and its navy to my power... 15 new ships total..
I move my fleet to the mediterranean to defend from the Turkish navy.
Austria is now screaming for support as the Turkish hordes marsh up illylria and into venetia....it is over pretty fast...100 000 turk silence venetia and ends their days. The entire empire annected in less than a year.
I build more troops and await the oncoming war...allying myself with Persia to weaken the Turk empire.
Offering land to france for peace...we manage to keep him out of the coming war.
Austria allies itself with Hungary and vasalls Bhoemia early on.
England supports Austria with money aswell as myself..giving him over 500 along with englands 200 to fight the Turk.
As it were..The Turk ignores the Mamelukes and moves its eyes on Hungary..
The battle ensues..
Persia, Austria, Spain, Napoli and Hungary versus Turk and Krim..
We all assault their holdings wherever we can..but the Turk with their new Venetian fleet..is able to defeat my own fleet and run me out of the Mediterranean sea..
Unable to suppport myself..i find Naples under siege as Turk forces annhilate Austrian troops around Venice..
Persia is bought off fast with an easy land offering by the Turk, and leaves us without an ally to stab the Turk with..
After annhilating the Austrian troops...by 1505 Hungary is annexed by the Turk..
Naples falls next...and I am forces to yield Messina and Sicily to the Turkish hordes....
Austria is able to hold its own in the mountains and a peace is made...
In this, we make England go to war with the Turk to keep him in wars.hoping that we can make his empire unstable and crush him as he falls to rebels..
Sadly..the rebel factor is even at 10+ exhaustion not enough to shake him...he quickly converts half of hungary including it ex-capitol to Muslim faith adding them firmly to his empire.
Shaken by this..and now in trouble with a growing france..i wash my hands off this affaire and look towars the new land..
Attacking both Aztec and Inca..and taking them by 1512..adding them firmly to my land..and I start a campaign of convertion to the right faith..catholism of course..
By 1520 I am starting to become very rich indeed..and my armies are growing in size..
But i can still not move much and the Turk has position 200 000 men on the Austrian border..my cousin is almost on the verge of panic and collapse...having now yielded 3 provinces to France.
The austrian standing army of 150 000 men and 40 000 in flander under Frundenburg is in no condition to fight.
Mine is about 150 000 men with 50 000 stationed in the new world.
With this in mind the Russian is a bit removed from us, but by 1550 he has grabbed a sizable part of Sibira and the entire Golden Horde.
The Turk is very quiet for now..adding the rest of the persian empire to his realm while we stand and watch..
Another turk Austrian war with France attacking us on the same time...sends 300 000 spanish to their graves aswell as 200 000 austrian troops..
the result..stalemate on all fronts..
The english try to establish new fronts aswell..and after annexing most of Algeire..i offer him Oranien so that hte english fleet will be on station in the mediterranian.
By 1550 I am quite the power myself..but my intolerable ally the Pope, is very quick on the trigger and the Turk forces us to peace each time with taking his capitol and then ending the war.
The Austrian annex Bhomia, Bavaria, Saxony, Milan and grows in power a lot..while Russia moves its border closer to the turk..
But we are now checked by almost 500 000 turkish soldiers on the Austrian lines..and about 250 000 towards myself..
And it is with no amusement I watch almost 250 000 french troops move towards my borders...
He wants Roussilon...and he might want more..
I'm not sure how to stop this....and unless I can break the France-Turkish understanding.....
Altough I have been given quite a few peace years..and established a great spanish empire...with lots of factories and well defended provinces..
But the English are removed from us...they grow increasingly hostile
A war with them in the colonies while fighting in north africa and on the spanish borders will truly be a test of my stamina..
My fleet is grand...but my leaders are not cabable to handle this kind of power...but Duke the Alba proved in one of my wars to be quite the leaders...I just hope i get more of his ilk.
1602 ...
Many years has passed ...
I am not getting the techonological superiority against the Turks that I want..they are simply to powerful...
War has broken loose in Austria..my cousin says its bad over there...
My fleet reports action near the American coasts...english flags they say..
And my North African genral is reporting 100 000 turkish troops in Naples.and another 100 000 in Cyrenica.
They are moving along..aswell is the Turkish fleet...I am moving my fleet out to meet them, but the English has theirs in Oranien..how i regret giving them that damned place.
I think the French is attacking...
