No problem. There is, iirc, a 10-picture limit by post, so if you have more than 10 you do indeed need multiple posts.

On the other hand, I would say that a little editing might be appreciated by some readers or people with slower upload times! Just taking the last two pics, perhaps you could have had one screenie with just the map, and another screenie joining together both the budget window and DP window. Would cut down on redunancy and generally make things look 'cleaner' if you know what I mean.

You appear to have gotten off to a nice steady start.

Thanks for claryfying that. My brother is great at photoshop so he could probably help me make things cleaner and the updates nicer overall. Btw, I've noticed that I get 4BB for each non-cb dow, isn't it supposed to be two :confused:

Is there any other way of triggering the end of the kalmar union? I would also recieve the end of the kalmar union so I can't have missed it.

A fast start, indeed. Nice pick ups in your wars with Russia and TO. What's your BB like now, especially after the DoW on Norway w/t a CB?

The Real Deal - You understood how I reasoned perfectly there.

coz1 - It's around 8 I think although I'm not on my eu2 comp right now. Do you get 4 bb for declaring war without a cb :confused:

SunZyl - The snapphanar in Småland likes Denmark way more then Sweden. How can they not like a kitten? :p

Yoy21 - Another reader :D . Welcome aboard.

Duke of Wellington - I actually don't need to change their culture as they start out ugric but I need to stop them from becoming russian.

stnylan - I don't hope to be as good as Duke of Wellington or Catknight considering it's my first AAR. My updates are done directly after I play so they might be lacking in quality. I will edit them (as I have already) alot to improve them. I do however strive not only to copy the works of others but also to find my own style. This AAR is like a good wine, it will improve over time.

Chief Ragusa - I control all of mainland Norway and Iceland. The end of the Kalmar union event is supposed to fire when I end my vassalage with Denmark which I did in 1434 by the Engelbrekt rebellion event. Then Norway receives an offer to be annexed by Denmark by event and the A choice is being annexed. As I control all of Norway's provinces I would then "turbo inherit" them without any BB cost. Can I make the End of the Kalmar union event fire by using F12?

Evil brothers are stealing my EU2 computer so I dunno when I will be able to update. I'm hosting a texas hold'em tournament tomorrow so anybody who's in Falun, Sweden can drop by :D

As for the BB - I don't know the exact numbers, but I assume you've gained a few after your recent wars.

coz1 - We should play online sometime. I'm surprised that I gain 4bb for declaring war without a cb as in the games I played before this I always gained 2.

Grundius - Look at the "very favourable peace" with Novgorod. I don't have map access through Muscovy who own the Olonets province which separates me from Archangelsk. The ownership of that province is bound to change though.

VILenin - They were soooo cute though :p

stnylan

- I control all of mainland Norway and Iceland. The end of the Kalmar union event is supposed to fire when I end my vassalage with Denmark which I did in 1434 by the Engelbrekt rebellion event. Then Norway receives an offer to be annexed by Denmark by event and the A choice is being annexed. As I control all of Norway's provinces I would then "turbo inherit" them without any bb cost. Can I make the End of the Kalmar union event fire by using F12?

SunZyl - I have slightly modified the original end of the Kalmar union by looking at your event. Thanks.

Can somebody write an event making the end of the Kalmar union fire in January 1450? It must be a bug that it haven't already fired as the only condition afaik is that Sweden must break it's vassalage with Denmark. I'll give you a cookie :) .

I'm overwhelmed by the amount of readers of this aar. I guess I should blame the kittens :p . The next update will include nicer pictures so keep reading.

No, it shouldn't. Check the date = { day = 1 month = january year = 1521 } *Hint* And I strongly advocate you include this;

command = { type = sleepmonarch which = 0131500 } #Erik av Pommern
command = { type = sleepmonarch which = 0131501 } #Christoffer av Bayern
command = { type = sleepmonarch which = 0131502 } #Christian I

Peace and Prosperity​

In January 1449 the Danish finally understood that the Kalmar union was over. Therefore they sent a letter to Norway requesting that they join Denmark as one people in this time of need. The Swedish garrisions in Norway and Iceland managed to get their hands on the letter and changed Denmark to Sweden. The only place where this was not succesful was Greenland but only polar bears lived there so it was no great loss.


I created a new alliance with Poland as together with them and Lithuania I would easily be able to beat Russia and most states in Germany. The next few years were spent reforming my economy by promoting tax collectors everywhere and expanding my colonies to cities. In november 1462 I reached infrastructure 3. In 1471 and 75 I payed of two loans which I had gotten by bad events.


In september 1475 came a chance to increase my power as Poland declared war on Friesland. Burgundy was a part of that alliance and they had a poorly defended cot, Flandern. After losing two battles I headed home again as I didn't have enough troops to besiege Flandern anymore.


I decided to declare war on Denmark to settle the battle of the baltic sea once and for all. My primary wargoal was their vassalation but I also would get Småland if I got enough warscore. I quickly laid siege to Småland and Skåne and I was lucky enough to get a army across the Sund to Copenhagen where I won a big battle against danish forces. After that I moved all my other forces to Bergenhus to from there transport them to Holstein and Jutland. I managed to land my forces there and as I did so the danish fleet left the sund to pursue my fleet. This gave me the opportunity I had waited for and I quickly moved all my forces on Sjaelland to Jutland where I managed to defeat the main danish army. The war was now won.


I managed to capture Oldenburg and thereby vassalize the country Oldenburg.I played a cat and mouse game with Bremen's forces which I won when they attacked Mecklenburg where I had 9000 cavalry waiting for them. Their numerically superior infantry was no match for me on the plains. In the peace deals I vassalized both Denmark and Bremen but took no territory. My other vassal, Oldenburgen was annexed by Saxony shortly after I had vassalized them.


1492 I was declared war on Russia. I had built 40 000 cavalry (my support limit) the previous years so the war was easy. I demanded military access, Arkhangelsk, and Olonets in the peace deal. That gave me all Russia's provinces with either ugric or scandinavian culture. I moved another step towards an offensive doctrine in 1499.


Political overview of the Swedish realm.


Diplomatic overview of north-eastern Europe.


Political overview of western and central Europe.


I'm happy with the game so far and Sweden has potential to become the strongest power in Europe. I have read the BB FAQ again so there will be no more question from me concerning BB.

Well well, the Swedish Empire appears to be blossoming nicely :)

Changing the name on the letter was a great deception. (Gamey as hell, but I like it! Though if I take up your challenge you mentioned in my aar you will have to promise not to seek out any more of those turbo inheritences :D )

BB is not quite as high as I would have thought, I guess the good Swedish kings saw to that.

BTW - the 3rd picture is, I believe, not supposed to be there.

Edit - I guess Archagelask??? (whatsa name) rebeled away from you?
