Seriously that albania player is a combination of jaron and fireblade. But, yes, you are surrounded by players right now. You're gonna have to knock one of them off.

I tried to avoid this,but Hideous fucked my plans and he did this becouse in the Thursday game as Burgundy I dont want to support his war against France.
That guy is an asshole.

Slargos thinks he's an asshole too...

but... he is playing portugal and you did send a hungarian army into west africa... soo....TBH, I can understand him not being happy about this

Thats okay,but he said he is doing this becouse he dont trust me!Not becouse i am going there.He want to take revenge for the Thursday game ,thats all.Thats why I say he is an asshole.

Did you notice that when you rename a province in one game - it stays renamed even into another game.  I played France and renamed a bunch of provinces in North America and Africa - to see them with the same name in a game as Makassar.  I wonder if it's WAD or some bug.

The game was restarted several times between the France session and the other one.  No matter I was merely curious if anyone had noticed this.

I was traumatized by seeing Slargdrid written over Spain in a game.

Even without the poles and danes the Vikingmans managed to smite main Slarbosburg force in three consecutive battles and then wipe half his remaining force at Vienna.

It was also Franz-Joseph who is responsible to leading the Habsburg empire to colllapse.He was a man of the old times, and was not open minded for the new ideas.He refused to improve the austrian military for example.So during the I world war his enemies used new weapons and tactics in the battlefield austria still fought with old weapons and tactics.

Given, as an example, that the Austrians had the best heavy artillery (the type for crushing fortresses) of all the Major Powers that's news to me.

In fact, what stands out clearly from 1914 is exactly how close Austria's warplan on the Russian Front came to succeeding (despite Conrad's repeated fumblings and total misuse of his "swing group".) Much closer than France's or Russia's - or even, arguably, Germany's. That's not a sign of a backwards military.
I've never really studied the Austrian front. If someone other than Conrad had been in charge, what were their chances?
It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

I guess there was certainly room to do better. As I read, the effective offensive fighting force of the A-H army melted away in 1914. Any offensive they did they needed German help.

Losing almost all your trained NCOs and low level officers will do that.
