Ok, so let me get this straight. We had 11 brothers, one is lost into the void. Two brothers have new players this session, and players for three brothers have to be absent this session, and we don't have subs for them.
I'd say our lines are rather thin today...

Guys make sure you've downloaded and installed the new beta patch before tonights session. Unless there are any reported problems with it we will be playing with it tonight.
And yes I know there are a few players missing tonight but we need to press on. There'll always be someone missing for one reason or another.

I hope to be home in time but I can't promise anything, Right now it looks like I will be 30 mins late and no subs are avalible
Throwing something in the air here, but would it be possible to start an hour earlier and finish an hour earlier? Or atleast finish an hour earlier either way.
It is very difficult for me to play untill midnight before a workday. I know Jarkko atleast has the same problem being in my timezone.
Be good to solve this somehow

)

Well maybe we can think about 1h shorter session then
UPDATE:
It looks like I will be home much later, approx. around 22 cet, I have to take the train. Hence I will not be able to play
I am sorry...o

Pah the troops of the Horselord are too strong. They killed poor Qutb.
O well, gave me a chance to sit back and rebuild and if It had not been for the 10% increase in inflation and Qutb's death, I would say that it was a good session.

Very nice war- I actually like useless wars way more than hyperteching.
Only problem would be if others WERE hyperteching, which, I think, did not happen this session atleast
EDIT: I do hope, though, that Peter got Screenies of his 70k armies being beaten back by at max half their number in Deccan troops
EDIT#2: I think that something needs to be done about all those provs Brunei lost. AND about Spain who DoWed Bengal just before we ended.

I thought I'd mention I want the PP for Qutb, but I notice he came here and said already. A couple of notable moments:
1) Gothmog breaths in his bigmouth-style. Alvaro the Horselord charges in, understanding well it is a trap. Amzad follows as fast as he can. Gothmogs "Master-plan" is to attack with 3:1 forces Amzad, but the Horselords charge over river Ganges and put Gothmog to flight. Very enjoyable moment
Quoting Robertus, Quote #1 of the day:
"Robertus (Manchu) :Gothmog springs his trap!
May 19, 1620 : We won a battle against Vientiane in Ganges.
Robertus (Manchu) :And is defeated?"
2) Nippon and Manchu attack the Horselords when Alvaro is tied in India. A random conquistador with 5k infantry leads the defense until Kenta-Ur gets through Siberia. Those 5k infantry stop wave after wave of Manchurian and Nipponese troops, sometimes odds are 8:1 against the Horselords. Until Kenta-Ur arrives to the field and kills Qutb.
Robertus masterful quotes, Quote #2 of the day:
"Robertus: Pah the troops of the Horselord are too strong. They killed poor Qutb."
Well, what can one say, modestly and without bragging? Well, let us go for the simple truth: After being at constant war for 34 years, the Horselords are victorious on all fronts. Enemies bow down their heads, and ask for forgiveness. Alvaro the Horselord is such a nice personality that he doesn't even take land from the poor lost souls (except from AI Nippon who wouldn't accept WP but offered then two colonies for peace ).

Yep - I think he just lost provinces in South America to Spain, and maybe one to Japan. We can edit those back if devil will compare the situation in the save and give me details.ForzaA said:Very nice war- I actually like useless wars way more than hyperteching.

I think I should get some PP's for my amazing quotes, don't you?
- September 7, 1600: Vientiane declares war on the Mughal Empire and marches into Ganges
- July 23, 1641: Vientiane makes peace with Mataram and Vijayanagar: JOHOR to Mataram
Favourite moment: Going bankrupt in 1637 due to receiving a "+1 stab/-50d" gift to celebrate the end of a great feud. Probably the single worst beneficial event I have ever received in EU2. I have not gone bankrupt since World Conquest For Dummies, so I was pleasantly surprised to see that the effects were somewhat less harsh than they used to be.
(*) The 40 year's war cost Vientiane 1,707,000 casualties. For comparison with somebody else who pretends to suffer from many tough wars (hi Jarkko!), Chagatai has only lost half that and China 70% of that in the entire 149 years of game play... If Gothmog cared about casualties, this would be bad, bad, news. Fortunately, he doesn't. Not really. he praises the infantry cost of 2d per thousand. Almost as good as using orcs.
