And I'm all out of bubblegum.
Okay I'm going to stop there and write another update tomorrow, the one with maps and stats. But Crackers is probably too poor to afford a colony, so Organic Potatoes is the only one colonizing the Americas right now. He also just got the tech to unlock a new idea group (nobody else has done that), and he picked Expansion. That is going to give him even more colonists. If nobody else picks Exploration when they hit the 4th idea group, I suspect he's going to colonize half of America before anyone else has a chance to get there :eek:

(To explain colonization a bit: you send a colonist to make a colony, and then if it's in Africa/Asia it becomes part of your country. If it's in the New World (also Australia), when you get enough colonies next to each other they turn into a separate country that continues colonizing on its own. He's currently got three different ones)

It's still going, started in 1560 and it's now 1566. You're both mostly bled out, but it looks like @Wing Attack Plan R is going to win (could take bigger losses).

Wasnt confident at all on this war, but im surprised he could take bigger losses with my manpower traditions. We shouldnt have taken risks, shouldve called the Timurids in to make sure we got the job done. Going to be vulnerable to a hobbers backdoor now.

@Abizzz has been a naughty boy, and is now the target of a pretty big coalition. That means that if he attacks anyone, these guys will get involved.

Looks like I made some decent gains, hopefully whoever rules me now is wise enough to sit out that coalition of envy. Welcome back @Dan, vote for your ally in any election!

What's the religious map like Nimic? Are we close to triggering a league war? They're always very entertaining.

To expand on this a little.. Organic Potatoes is going to be in a very strong position with the expansion + exploration combo. It basically sends his overseas expansion into overdrive by having two overseas focuses (at the cost of not having a more useful European-centric idea group)

The coloured areas below are colonial regions Nimic mentioned above, so if any countries secure enough colonies in any of these region, they create a semi-autonomous colonial nation. They're sort of like vassals in that they provide extra income, troops to fight, etc to their mother country, but they also expand and colonise to further their own growth and also can declare colonial wars independently.

Ideas (these are basically upgrades you can take that come in Administrative, Diplomatic and Military, using the currency generated (generally) by the skills of your ruler. I'll go into a bit more detail about these when I do country-by-country updates a bit later today, but they're one way of measuring how well you're doing that doesn't necessarily relate directly to your number of provinces or the size of your armies. If you're conquering a lot you'll probably use a lot of Administrative power on making the new provinces cores, so maybe won't have as much to spend on new ideas)

Everyone is at 21 except:

22: P-Nut
19: Walrus, Wing Attack Plan R
15: Dan (he got killed and brought back, I guess he forgot some stuff)

Most developed province You use Monarch Power to develop these. It gets more expensive to increase the higher it is.

And I'm all out of bubblegum.
I'm realizing two things doing this.

1. I am extremely fecking happy the forum constantly autosaves a draft. I remember when it didn't do that, which was a time of despair.

2. I am absolutely crap at doing simple maths in my head.
