And this is why saves are useful.

Completely fucked up that Gelre thing, but are you sure on that Africa deal? Because it was Burgundy's color on the map and I don't remember any native nations around there with said color. (Remember that you missed a few years of Burgundy doing wacky shit. Notice the colony in the americas.)

[Karlito]

Yeah, actually is looks like the AI has been going on a few African adventures. I sure would like a look at that save.

[Twiggie]

coming right up

linky

[Karlito]

Alright, not too bad. Just 20% over both land and naval forcelimits, two colonies in Africa that will get burned to the ground by hyper-agressive natives, minting at 2/3 of my buget, a war in Mexico, and two reforms passed that don't even benefit me anymore.

[Heron TSG]

Is it possible to get an over-time graph of province count?

[Tarran]

Are you sure you want one? Are you really sure you want to see how much Twiggie is crushing us?

[Heron TSG]

It'd be interesting. It shows a little bit more about the state of the world, and I am a fan of graphs.

EDIT: I am also a fan of flags. Made one up for the HRE nations.


Using our in-game colors and positions.


Using the modern German flag colors, plus burgundy.

Thoughts? Suggestions? Requests for flags from the other nations? I might make a new one for Prussia. The current one is a bit tacky and overdetailed for the small thumbnails given most of the time. I'm sure it wouldn't be hard to just substitute in a few flags.

He has probably taken the lead by now; I'd say 130~150 provinces for Russia.

[Twiggie]

Yeah I overtook az last game, and I have another 16 or so vassal provinces. Most of them are grain though so I'm still so far behind in tech its not even funny

It is easy to overtake poor Az when he gets horribly ganked. Alright, enough third person whining, it is bad for my sanity and annoys you folks unnecessarily.

Still, anyone up for a singleplayer challenge? Refer to Russia's 1497 save:

Survive the four Wars as GBR; the victory condition is getting a White Peace from every alliance and seizing all British colonies. GBR must not break at the end of war

That's.... not possible. I'm not going to even try.

(though maybe i will and just not tell you guys how miserably i fail)

[Karlito]

Huh, I sure had a lot of troops.

But seriously, by the 1497 save, it's already too late for GB.

[Twiggie]

Huh, I sure had a lot of troops.

That is a lot of troops. I guess those subsidies really helped out or something

I recall Burgundy having 70~80k on its own, the remaining 20k are its allies and vassals. It should be possible, in theory, to fulfill that challenge by using GBR navy blockades to exhaust Burgundy until it pushes for a WP. Retaking the british colonies is easy and it might be possible to exhaust Russia into a WP; there is large enough a stack in the isles to at least stop the rebels from taking London and, with that, prevent the "Great Britain has broken" event.

[Twiggie]

yeah, then you only have to deal with the 100k+ troops i had there :p

or  had i pulled them out by that time?
