Chapter 31: Bohemias Fall
Chapter 31: Bohemias Fall
In January 1552 we declare war for two of the three remaining Irish provinces.
With a travelling minstrel we gain a stability point and once again back at +3.
The war against Munster is over in four months and they are annexed.
Production Technology 22 is reached in February 1553.
A surprise in 1553 as France once again is back, have no idea how it happened
First thing that happens is that I declare war for the last Irish province which is in French hands.
A first victory in the war shows military supremacy.
France is weaker than expected and beaten in December 1553.
With Ireland conquered we gain a new mission, this is not going to happen as I have no plans to have yet another theatre to manage.
Our infamy is currently 14/20, so we will stay quiet for a little while.
In 1555 Bohemia declares a reconquest war for Niederlauitz, this is a great chance to bring them down in size and thus it will be a important war.
We also get a new mission, subjugate the remains of Scotland.
Naval Technology reaches level 22.
The first battle of the war is a loss, I am very much to blame as I paid way to little attention.
The following battles goes in our favor however.
A year after the start of the war Bohemia is a ghost of what they were at the start and almost completely occupied.
Bohemia pays a lot in this war, as they are forced to release Poland and Ukraine effectively cutting them down nearly half in size.
We end this update with three new cores along with our Scotland mission failing as Northumberland annexes them.

At this point I thought "How fitting, he's England now, so how long until a good, old-fashioned English-French War?".
Not that long.
That was a devastating victory over Bohemia, good job.
Yeah, it was just that I hadn't really done anything to help them so it was a nice surprise.

Thank you
Tell me this is still going
Still on, just had two weeks of work and have been busy with CK2. (Sorry) But it is still going and you should expect a update by Tuesday-Thursday.
France is back because Burgundy formed them
But looking really good
Yup, thanks
we inch closer and closer to Hinndustan
Slowly but surely we do, all that remains is basically waiting for cores, form Hindustan, then change culture to Saxon, then we will have merciless conquest in every direction!
But on a more serious note I will be trying something new with the next update which should be a interesting experiment aswell, so expect a good old-fashioned update and a new experiment.
Update by Thursday.Chapter 32: Sorry for being slow...

Hello and I am finally back, although it took a while we can finally get going again and I am aiming to get done with this before EU IV comes out.
The Holy Roman Empire decides that they want to pass another diet, they have now passed two.
The Oirat Horde declares war on me, my reaction "Whaaaat?!". Can't find out where they have a landborder.
Adana, former Ottoman/Karaman? land is converted.
Somehow the Horde has land in the middle east. That is a surprise.
The province they took is back in English hand quite fast, along with a new election Scarlat is allowed to stay in power.
Poland declares war on Bohemia and draws me in, I have no idea when I got into an alliance with them but with the oportunity to weaken Bohemia more I jump in on their side.
Government tech 23 is reached, and with it we can now build colleges.
Our peace with Bohemia, just cut them a little down in size.
Although the war was fought with flatout brute force sieges we didn't really acumulate any war exaustion.
Trade tech 23 is reached which allows us to build post offices, we could then build custom houses afterwards but I've decided not to.
Corwall has been converted.
Peace with the Horde for 0.5 a month and they joining our trade league.
Production and Land technology both reached 23, although I was a little bit triggerhappy and managed to erase the land one...
Heretics of Koch has been converted.
We round up this short update with the news that Austria is the new HRE.

True dat. Guess I am starting to forget how the game really works
Next update to be released soon, and this time I mean within the next hour... Hopefully

Video Chapter in spoiler (10:41):
We declined the mission to establish a colony in North America, and got a new one to establish a colony in the Carribbean, will be declined as well simply because I can't allow myself to get any more English provinces, if I do I will have to get rid of one of my English provinces to actually be able to change my culture to form Hindustan.
A slider move became avaliable just before I quit last time, and I move one point towards land as sooner or later we will move mercantilistic on the trade slider.
The heretics of Konya has been converted. Also the term for Scarlat is up but he is allowed to stay in office as I have no plans to conquer anything and has admin 9.
I decide to do expand my merchants markets as I haven't done in a while, and because there are many new markets to trade in.
Bulgaria cores, and with it everything on the Balkans is cored.
I get lucky and get 10k investments in my production technology.
A boundary dispute on georgian cultured Abkhazia gives us a reason to fight Lithuania who has been taking down alot of the hordes.
The war should be won without any problems, two reasons for this, first we have more troops, secondly they have land 17 vs. my land 23.
The heretics of Karaman has been converted.
As you can see our troops are far superior to the Lithuanians.
Another victory along with some investments into government tech, the other choices were a point of stability and 1500 ducats into the treasury.
Suprisingly enough the Lithuanians do not agree to my terms. Oirat Horde in Mamluk lands is once forced to concede defeat.
Mecklenburg became a core aswell.
Lithuania at the verge of giving up, yet when I once again presented my 3 warscore peacedeal they refused it...
Naval Tech 23 is reached.
The "fair" peace deal with Lithuania.
My statesman died and I do not have the culture tradition required to actually get another one, although I should probably get something else at this point.
We end this update with an example of incompetent diplomacy from Scarlat.

Probably but I would only get 25-75 ducats and I don't really have any money issues.
