How's the ledgers looking?

I'm guessing people are using regional tech groups? Good luck vs the Ottoman hordes :wenger:

Yeah they got tech group, culture and religion of their capital. I'm thinking of doing some ledger top 10 (maybe) stuff every 25 years, with an updated map. Then maybe a bigger one every 50 years, where I go through every country and very briefly see how they're doing. i.e exactly what I said I wasn't going to do, but I can't be trusted.

What year is it in the game now?

As with real life protecting the small and defenseless is literally pointless and will be my bane. Good thing my ideas are religious because we might need a miracle.
If it makes you feel any better, you are currently punishing one of those small and defenseless former allies.



You've also found some new, hopefully more reliable allies.

If anyone is bothered by the constant tagging, please let me know and I'll avoid tagging you (but still mentioning you in updates; I'm not a monster). This offer does not extend to @Eboue.

For those who thought Stobzilla or Crackers had it rough, @Grib is currently being invaded for the third time. First it was Denis79, Tiber and Andycoleno9, then hobbers, and now finally @VeevaVee enlisted @AnotherLondonManc to help him grab Corfu. At least this time @Walrus is helping, but the Italians are many.

(In the picture you can see the war screen. The "High" basically means willingness to fight on. The first troop numbers are how many they have, the second below the bar are the losses so far)

The Gribites are resilient if nothing else... or are they, I've no idea what that screen indicates

Poor little Grib, we all smell weakness a mile off.

Grib's AI is a proper dolt allying with someone with no land borders or navy.

Speaking of bad moves, @Eboue is continuing his quest to conquer all the French and @Welsh Wonder unwisely decided to get involved on the side of Provence (who are definitely going to lose).

He's only a secondary participant in the war, so probably won't lose too much. Except his navy and army.

Don’t even have cannons yet - it IS still early!

Come on Sultan, it’s time to ditch off @Grib as an ally, he is only pulling us into useless defensive conflicts where we don’t stand to gain anything.

No you're Eboue.

How are we doing? There wasn't much of France left though... shouldn't be that much of a job if no one is helping them.

(Also you are leading that fight so will probably get 99% of the spoils)..
