I did take my time, but it mainly was as a result of me learning how to play the game effectively.  I like to think I'm doing much better now.

this quote right here is why Viking can't get back to HRE size or close to it

I do feel for Viking just a little.  Being Austria, he's got two options to pass his time:  conquer Central Europe, or twiddle his thumbs.  It's not like he can go out and colonize America or conquer South Asia.

There is no doubt that we should start worrying about the new 800lb gorilla.

Of course, Spain is expanding at a rather incredible rate as well, having taken over pretty much all of Central America, the good parts of South America, etc., etc. And they now have the largest fleet as well. Given their apparent lackey status with Austria, I am not sure if I can really set myself up as any kind of counter to the Turk.
:lol: Lackey status with Austria?  I guess news is one more thing that's on the slow side in England.

About fucking time Salk.


And as to viking he keeps trying to compare the New World/ African/East Asian colonies to the entrenched, developed  provinces of central europe is pretty fucking funny.

Where exactly should I expand then?

Just to reflect further on a previous point, if some sort of counter to Austria is desired, it shouldn't be a German minor (which would counter only Austria, and as was rightfully pointed out, Austria can only really expand in Germany). It should either be an Italian minor (Venice or Naples works well in 1492), which would counter Austria/France/Ottomans, or Poland, countering Austria/Russia/Ottomans. Otherwise the "edge powers" would benefit too much from a checked Austria.

Or could just start in 1399. :P

A 1399 start would be kind of interesting, although playing Muscovy would be...challenging.

Actually, on that note, maybe start in 1399 and play GH...

What do people think of that World Wide Mod thing? Is that a viable MP mod?

You did enough expanding prior to the last war to last another 100 years or so.

Actually, why not expand somewhere useful, like Hungary? I bet nobody would complain if your expansion was at the Ottoman expense, rather than some poor innocent minors...

A bad master can make his lackey seem dysfunctional, especially a lackey on the slow side.  Before the formation of HRE, you said I wouldn't need to fight, and you needed Spain to grow strong.  I don't think anyone can argue that I didn't follow both of your instructions to perfection.

It is pretty decent. But there are some "home made" mod's you'd have to preform if you are going to play it with 4.1b.

BTW, what's Hansy's status?  Will he continue slumming it as Persia, or will he be put in charge of forming a strong German state?
