The Danish-Russian-Swedish pact

1) As Sweden now controls no provinces, Russia and Denmark have the power to dispose of them as they please.

2) Russia shall give some of it's conquered lands to Denmark as an earlier gentlemans agreement dictated. These lands include Vastergotland, Bergslagen and Gastrikland.

3) Russia shall take all of the region of Finland and also the two provinces of Vasterbotten and Lappland. Denmark shall take all other parts of Sweden and they will cease to exist as a nation.

4) The Northern Alliance between Russia and Denmark shall be extended for another 10 years. Denmark shall also agree to a Royal Marriage to be commenced with Russia in the coming year.

How does this thing really work??? Kinda hard to keep up with it!

Well there's the rules but I'll give u a private audience:p .

What happens is that everyone PM's there orders to either Lord E or me depending on what moves you are making. (ie battles to Lord E, colonization to me.)

We have two turns a week, one on Saturday and one on Wednesday. Lord E and I will post in our reserved posts what happened and then theorically everyone tells in more detail what happened to their nation.

That's what the rules haven't really covered yet. That's why I intend on rewriting them.

The game is sort of like a PBEM - RPG mixture, so you will find any and every different kinds of posts from mine up there to small celebrations...;)

Did you get it?

Then send in orders by pm.
 
Wessex

Spain: 9 x 6+ 25 = 79 /5 = 15
France: 10 x 5+ 38 = 88 /5 = 17

The spainsh forces suprises the french in thier newly counquered land of Wessex. The french forces and the fortress in Wessex have to fight the invaders. The battle is hard and rough, but in the end the 1 army extra France has makes the day and the spainsh is beaten. France although looses 1 army and 1 base defence in the battle

According to my understanding of the rules:
Spain: 9 x 6+ 25 = 79 /5 = 15 --> overkill 5 --> Spain looses 17-5=12 armies.
France: 10 x 5+ 38 = 88 /5 = 17 --> overkill 8 --> France looses 15-8=7 armies.

The same applies to Normandy :
England: 9 x 4+ 29 = 65 /5 = 13
France: 10 x 5+ 29 = 79 /5 = 15
France takes the english army just as they was going to move on and France crushes the army and take over Normandy again.
England: 9 x 4+ 29 = 65 /5 = 13 --> overkill 13-10=3 --> England looses 15-3=10 armies.
France: 10 x 5+ 29 = 79 /5 = 15 --> overkill 15- 9=6 --> France looses 13-6=7 armies.

Sorry CP, that's my fault. That's what I taught Lord E. I mustn't have had a very good grip on it. That's probably why it seemed so weird aye Lord E?!;)
 
Poland-Lithuania: Player - FrederikHendrik, Religion - catholic

MilTech - 6, Tax income - 5, Treasury - 50, Max Troops - 20, Armies - 18, Navies - 0, Tech Treasury - 10/103, Current Rate - 4(again...?)
Poland
Uses 18 eco for 18 armies. 9 armies to Carpathia and 9 armies to Ruthenia
My intention was to use the original 18 armies. I did not give order to build them.
 
"Sire, sire! our army in England is completely destroyed!"
"So that's why we did not get any news from them! Our worst fears have come true."
"Shall we recruit new armies, sire?"
"Yes, please do".
 
"dzisiaj jest swiêto" - "today is a festival-day" said the king to the council who were sitting in a half moon around him (well, he said them before to sit in a straight line, as half moons made him think of the turks in the south, a memory he rather avoided, but they forgot it) "Our troops have made their first succes in fight since the start of my reign on this castle"
The council is full of rumour and happy talking on this message. After some time , the king restores order.
One of the councillers says:
"Should we send another diplomat to Russia? We didnt get any clear answers, but they accepted him quite friendly. "
The king answers:
"I like the idea. Is there anyone against it?"
Another counciller says :
"How can we know if they 'll ever win from sweden? maybe sweden will win once and then we will have to help against them. That will cost us our lives, as we'll have to fight in an army because we're the Polish nobles wo have to command the army.I vote against"
"Russia and Denmark have already conquered whole Sweden. There's no chance of them being droven back by the Swedes"
"Ok, I 'll vote for a new diplomat then"
The king says:
"By now, you've accepted to send another diplomat to Russia to ask for peace and for a royal marriage between our families. We 'll now vote for the continue of the war against Hungary"
The whole council votes for.
 
In Paris
The people was very happy for the news from England that a spainsh invation army had been beaten and it was huge feast.
But when the news of that Spain had invadet homeland of France the people instead was very sorry and the only think every one wanted to do was to punish this Spanish traitors.

But it was also comming news of that the king had started peace talks with Spain what was true?
 
The Russian Court had been all but deserted. The only thing that was happening was waiting for Denmark to make up it's mind about our peace treaty with Sweden. Not for long however, not for long...

The first day of spring would bring new activity, it always did. This time there were rumours that armies were being mounted near the southern border...
 
In Paris
The war was still going on. It had been some time without any nes from the english army and our forces in England, but the spanish forces where still taking out our cities in the south and we were beating them in the north. So an other year has passed on, but France is still at war.

But news has been heared that the king is happy with the result and now peacetalkes has been started with the courts in England and Spain. What will happen next was the big question in France. Still the months whent on and nothing happen, execp the war going on into a new year. The year of 1512 was to begin and people was hoping for peace at last, but you never could know with this kings and noble could you?



OOC: The battles for 1512 is up guys. This was my post for the last turn, 1511. So the new battles are at the normal space first page post nr 11 under the rules and Bocaj's colonization:D
 
It seems that the Russians have been keeping busy while Denmark is away. Russian troops, by the order of the king, were sent to Donetsk, Lugansk, Uralsk and Volvograd. They were successful in most respects except Volvograd where they were crushed.

The battle started in the early morning of April 8. The Russians advancing from the north meet heavy resistance when they saw the numerical advance of the enemy. Although they had a respectable army, 20,000 in all, the Astrahkan army numbered 48,000. The troops started frecking out, but General Michal Gorvbatchev devised a plan that even the most cunning leader wouldn't realize unto to late...

Soon Russians came twoering over the ridge and started flooding the plain. There they encountered around 90% of Astrahkans army. The battle wore ugly and raging but the Russians soon retreated.

Running back up the ridge and across, they meet up with a reserve army of 5000 poised with gunpower and just wating for the enemy. The huge army of Astrahkan consisting of about 42,500 by that stage, came flooding across the ridge expecting running Russians, but instead meet a formidible force of 15,000 troops that had either rallied or were positioned in the right place.

Soon Astrakhan were gaining a upper advantage after the initial slaughter of about 3000 troops. Then it happened. 5,000 troops came running out from the woods to the side flanks and slaughtered many of the unprepared back flank. It was a vain attempt however as only Michal and a small dispatch were able to flee and all the others were slaughtered. The Russians did the best they could but Astrakhan overwhelmed them with suppeiore troops and they were the victors from that battlefield...
 
"Sire, sire! The Fench have attacked Artois!
"And the French king suggested a peace fire while negotiations were in progress...
"Sire, sire, perhaps the French generals acted on their own initiative?"
"No, that seems unlikely. Did he respond to our peace proposal?"
"Not yet, sire"
 
"Why did those orders not arrive!?" the king shouts to the council. One of the councillers answers:
"We don't know, sir. But it is said that the messengers we've send to our troops have been shot down on command one of the officers." "Yes that's right. He tought they could be enemies, coming from the north to mislead us, and therefore he ordered to shoot them down", says another.
"We should not send those stupid councillers to command our armies" concludes the king.
