Thanks

I could never get into any mods, Venice is 'connected' with straits in Vanilla, does a good enough job.


I remember thinking the same thing. Now i'd say i can no longer get into Vanilla... And i really don't care!;)

edit: Venice is still connected by straits in other mods( like MyMAP), just an island.

Been a while, but got bitten by the EU2/AAR bug once more...
I think I know who you are now. :) Good to see you back with more AARs. I remember your old take on Venice, but I've forgotten the details - it'll be interesting to read it once again and see how you fare in this game. Let's hope it won't be a strategic fail. :D

I've just started lurking around the AARs again after quite a while. I have to say I'm really pleased to see there are still EU2 AARs on the go - I never did get to grips with EU3.

I'll be following the fortunes of the new Rome. :cool:

Interesting take for a Veneto AAR, I'll be keeping an eye on this report!

Thanks, hope that you may stay interested :)

Yes Olav, G'day there, back for more punishment ;), no matter how many times I say I will stay away, EU2 always tends to draw one back...and yes, I REALLY do want to complete this one, AARs are a nice personal record for me to view at a later date, hoping this will be a keeper.

Hmm, that impostor sure put up a fight. Good thing that Milan pays for it now, through getting their province ravaged. :D You sure got a lot of booty from Ragusa and Bosnia... but I thought Ragusa's treasury was larger than that. I guess they used some of it on warships that you sank? :p

It's 1431 and you're researching Infra 4 with ATD 1440... how much investment will you lose on this?

Yeah, they always buy a series of ships, then they started building troops after the DOW, so it does go down...and yeah, their ships were sank :)

I dont actually end up losing anything, dont make the ATD deadline for infra 4 :(

Where did the large armies from Tuscany and Modena go? Gattamelata killed them? :D

Yep, he killed em, just added a few screenies with that.

Regarding vassals and centralization: will you stay decentralized to get vassal-bonus and have smaller penalty for WE?

Im not really sure yet, though I think I will go with de-centralized and take the bonus's like you say.

What's your army support limit?

29000 as of 1441

I just love it when you have a large cavalry army on plains against infantry armies. Gattamelata did a fine job there.

The upcoming sync loot will be huge... do you think you will get more than 1000 income?

Lol at the Bohemians getting smoked by their cannons. :D
