All I can say is wow. Once you clean up on the Portuguese Empire it looks like Turkey and Russia will be the only major powers standing in the way of complete World Domination. (Then you can sell World Domination T-shirts!)
Looking forward to seeing Austrian dragoons riding through the streets of Beijing....

At the moment, no one can stand in my way simply because of my land tech. 
(I'm extremely proud of it(and it's power ))
I have been trying to do another post, but the computer has crashed each time I try to make peace with Portugal. By the way, I annexed P-L. To bad.....

1565
May-July
My troops land at Recife, the only province city without a fortress. Sweden and Poland-Lithuania (Spain) both DoW me separately. The lightning war on P-L: 200k troops swamp all of their lands starting with:
June Bessarabia
Podolia
July Danzig
August
Mozyr
Lithuania
Krementjug
October
Chernigov
Mazovia
Belgorod
November
Belarus
Polotsk
December
Kursk
Donetsk
Posen
1566
January
Poltava
Welikia
Kurland
February
Ukraine
and Smolensk
and with no more provinces, Poland-Lithuania was merged into the gloriously large Austrian Empire.
While that was going on, I was also at war with Spain, Sweden, Scotland and Portugal. In the middle of the northern summer, Vaastergotland, Svealand and Gastrikland from Sweden. From Spain came Galicia and Castille. Portugal gave up rights to Pernambuc, Recife and Tiracambu, and Scotland didn’t budge a bit.
In October 65, Vasterbotten and Strathclyde fell and in November Estramaduras fell. Spain, knowing that once again they can’t win this war, offered the rights to Estramaduras and Galicia 4 peace. I accepted and now I am eating away at the Spanish Empire faster than they can buid it.
I also accept peace with Sweden 4 Gastrikland, Vastergotland and Vasterbotten after taking Vorones and Osterbotten. I accepted a peace with Portugal but I am beginning to wise up, saving first. This turned out a very wise move, as the game crashed on me again.
In February 66, Friesen became a colonial city with less than 5000 people which I quickly took advantage of by sending a colonist to convert, which was a stunning success. March saw Tangiers falling to my troops and Portugal offering it with Tiracambu and Recife. I accepted and the didn’t crash. The joyful celebrations at the palace could be heard from miles away.
At the moment, I’m only at war with Scotland but I can tell u that all that will soon change......

Beware of the french...
After making peace with Portugal, the Teutonic Order with Prussia in tow DoWed me. 140k troops didn't hinder me from annexing them in September 66 and January 67 respectively. 4 more provinces to the great and glorious Austrian Empire.
April 66 saw Friesen convert to the true Universial religion and May saw Ryazan with Russia DoW me. The Grampians from Scotland also fall.
In June Morocco with Algiers DoW me and join in the fun.
This is the 1 I cannot win quite yet. (No troops in the area.)
July, Lothian falls and in September The Highlands falls and Scotland is thus incorparated into the AE. September also marks the first day a Russian province falls to my troops.
November sees 4 more Russian provinces fall. The Russians have never had a chance. They haven't even expanded into the Mongol Hordes lands.
In January of 1567, Morocco offers 223 ducats 4 peace even though it's ally Algiers has control of Tangiers. Go figure. 2 more provinces of Russia fall.
Then finally in March the last 2 provinces of Russia fall and they r annexed. I didn't even suffer to many casulties.
Kazan didn't like the news of Russia's defeat and promptly DoWed the AE. July-September was spent taking provinces off Ryazan and annexing them. I then turned my attention to the Orthodox lands of Kazan.
In December, Ethopia DoWed us because of our tp in Mogadiscio(sp?) I don't even have any knowledge of their lands. In January they offered a white peace which I accepted. Kazan took Vladimar. That will lengthen their death sentence....
March was twisted. It started with Portugal trying to get Recife back. This is the first time I have seen Portugal use the treaty of tordesailles. Then Oman wanted me to join its alliance with Persia which I accepted, but wondered how long it would last.
Kazan was also like so many others incorperated into the AE in May. And then the peaceful rebuilding period began.
In June 69, A particularily strong peasant uprising in Flandres killed my troops. The number of peasants was 70k strong. I told u that Flandres spits out good revolts. Portugal has unsuccesfully tried to get Recife back about 5 times.
Finally in the Summer of 1574, I got tried of peace and DoWed Turkey. This set of wars would be particularily grueling as most of the world would try and stop me.

Trying to steal Austria's maps now?
But what can I say, my England did very little exploration but knows almost the entire world .-Pat
So here’s how it unfolded. I DoWed Turkey and they brought their allies Crimea and Georgia along but the cowards in my alliance (Persia and Oman) ditched me. Then Ethopia DoWed me (again,) but this time I am prepared with a 30k army in Karroo, the closest province to Ethiopia. Spain DoWed me and I sent 100k troops to central america and Europe. Sweden DoWed me and so did Morocco (Algiers.)
August 74, Was the first real offensive month of the campaign with Albania, Hellas, Bulgaria, Macedonia and Crimea falling. A white peace was signed between me and Algiers.
A white peace was also signed to Morocco as the troops in the area (Western Europe) r already stretched to breaking point. This was in October. The provinces of Thrace, Vorones (Sweden) and Azov fell.
Asturias, Savolaks and Morea fell in November. The emperor of Turkey offered Bulgaria, Hellas and Albania but the Emperor, Maximilian II, has only 1 thing on his mind......Annex.....Annex.....Annex.
Maximilian II soon started chanting the word .... Annex .... Annex....ANNEX. 1 of his servants ran to tell the royal doctor who ran to his majesty and examined him. The people who had been there with him where starting to get tried of pacing the hall outside the throne, saw the doctor quietly come out of the throne room.
After a deafening silence 4 a minute, he started explaining to them that the king who they so loved was suffering from a rare brain disorder. It was a disease where power messes with your decisions. He said that he could become more and more paranoid like he was today. He said that this disorder would mess with his decisions, doing stuff that doesn’t make any sense.
As the dawn of the New Year approached, the royal family and their subjects were just getting used to the fact that their emperor would never be the same again, they were hearing of an immense number of victories. At least that would console them. They heard of victories in the new world as well as the old. 4 Turkish, 1 Crimean, 1 Spanish and 1 Swedish provinces fell in this month. The battle of the Cretan Sea was a great success, because my fleet bet 100 Venetian ships. This shows I am starting to get a better naval tech.
February-March
My Central American campaign is going at a pace with vengeance, but my troops r starting to wane. The Emperor thinks he can annex Spain but it may not be viable. Turkey is crumbling before the mighty empire and so is Crimea. It won’t be long be4 Crimea is crumbled to dust.
And finally in April, the last province of Georgia falls and Crimea is annexed. Sweden and Turkey r as I speak being bowled over too.

Sorry everyone, I have finally found that World domination isn't much fun, so I might have to turn in too. In the post i would have done, I conquered Sweden and Georgia. There is to much micromanagement involved in conquering colonies . Thanks to everyone 4 watching graciously my suckey AAR.
. Thanks to everyone 4 watching graciously my suckey AAR.
Your AAR doesnt suck Bocaj. Without your Austria I wouldnt ahve gone for worlddomination with the French either but I agree, worlddomination isnt that fun after a certain point...
but I agree, worlddomination isnt that fun after a certain point...
Great AAR Bocaj, and trust me it was NOT sucky. Its always amazing to see such expansive european empires something i was unable to do in EU1 easily.
Your welcome
Sure I was still tuning in, I wouldn't miss this one or any of the other AARs in this forum
Admittedly, I half stopped the AAR because I didn't think anyone was still looking. Thanks everyone!
