In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?
Oh yeah, and the Age of Reformation is here. The actual reformation hasn't arrived yet, but it's oh so very close. If the Holy Roman Empire splits in religion, we might get ourselves a Thirty Year War to settle it.
I think we know the answer to that...
I sent my whole army into central Africa?!You were dealing with a rebellion in your colonies. Oh and immediately after I took that screenshot your African ally, Mali, declared war on another African country, so now you're fighting them instead of going home.
Together we'll mash that fecker. Such a betrayal.
The grand old duke of Midi, he had 10 thousand men, he marched them off for a pint and he got feck all in spoils again.
The most important question... did I have a new idea?
I must be the most loyal ally ever. Or most idiotic.
Some of you may die, but it's a sacrifice I'm willing to make
Yes, Espionage. You're just about to crack the case of the ally who won't let you get anything.
I see the words, but they don't make sense. Are you telling me 80k soldiers died due to attrition??Some of you may die, but it's a sacrifice I'm willing to make
Oh yeah. The game tracks losses, so next update I'll add another category for most men and ships lost. Armies take attrition when sieging provinces, and some of them take a while.
@RedSky didn't get anything I'm afraid, even though he was occupying the French provinces of @Welsh Wonder. @Solius also took all four of Crackers' continental provinces. But surely @BD continued his conquest of @Shakesey, I hear you say? Well...
@Walrus very bravely attacking @Wing Attack Plan R (or rather his little ally), who just defeated @hobbers in a war (hobbers didn't lose any provinces, but an ally did). Granted Walrus has the better technology, and Wing is currently conquering Yemen, so... maybe?
Knew it, feck me my lads are shit.@RedSky didn't get anything I'm afraid, even though he was occupying the French provinces of @Welsh Wonder. @Solius also took all four of Crackers' continental provinces. But surely @BD continued his conquest of @Shakesey, I hear you say? Well...

The coral looks beautiful there.This will be my last update for a bit (maybe today), but I give you example #198293727321 of why only allying small countries that you can dominate is a terrible idea.

You've lived a truly blessed life this entire game. It's incredible. Not a single, even minor setback.
Ok well. I'm fecked. Gonna have to marry the Malian King's daughter and head for the gold in Southern Africa.@RedSky didn't get anything I'm afraid, even though he was occupying the French provinces of @Welsh Wonder. @Solius also took all four of Crackers' continental provinces. But surely @BD continued his conquest of @Shakesey, I hear you say? Well...
I usually have awful luck in experiments so it makes a nice change.
I'm gonna die this time, i can feel it
I take it back, this will be my last update before I take a break, because this is something we've been waiting for for literally the entire game. It's also kinda an example of the aforementioned rule, even if @SilentWitness is a pretty good ally.

Thanks what does this mean?This will be my last update for a bit (maybe today), but I give you example #198293727321 of why only allying small countries that you can dominate is a terrible idea.

I thought me and alto were allied at one point?I was going to disprove that but then I just found this screenshot of your Beard FC getting relegated from the RedCafe Premier League.
You've allied the dark greenies
Ok, glad to be have Bohemia but are my new allies any good? Am I at war with the other group?
Those are your enemies... I think you're at war... Maybe not, though
Your allies are tiny countries, while your enemies are pretty big countries (including the Holy Roman Emperor). You'll be lucky if this isn't the start of a @Dan-esque death spiral.
My allies don't look that strong is that correct? At least I have my artillery.It means this is your spokesman:
Sorry for all the questions I've never played this game.
Cheers nimnom. Yep that looks a little lopsided.
No that's fine, sometimes my short comments/jokes miss the mark a bit when it involves people who have no idea how the game works. You allied the dark green countries, and the red ones are your enemies (one of them declared war on you, bringing in their own allies, who are much bigger than yours). You can see the two sides in the table, and below that you can see how many soldiers they have.
