A war? Stand aside, weakling other colonies. It's time for Proelia to show you how it's done.
Sounds promising.Contact the King, ask for a small number of troops to aid Proelia, we are the front line against the French in the colonies.
Proelia asks for support from the king next turn. He says he'll blockade the French colonies for 10 Ag. Invasion would be 50 Ag. He'll also send troops if the safety of the colonies is threatened. Continue the mining, stone blocks are to be sent to the border between Proelia and the French to be constructed into forts.

"Bloody hell, start taxing those bastards so we get some fething money. Crivens, you gits can be stupid some times."
What language is that?1. Begin enforcing tax upon the farmes and miners.
How much and on what? They don't know and your tax collectors don't know, and it leads to a lot of confusion. Nobody taxes anyone for fear of getting tarred and feathered, a mostly deadly punishment. -20Cu2 Tell the miners to dig deeper.
Mining is getting dangerous now. Last week I heard in the news about some guy losing his hand in a mining accident. The profits are good though +80Cu3. Begin taking the stone dug out from the mines and house-building and begin to smooth and expand a high ledge on the biggest mountain. The bloody bastards will have to get to us before they can kill us.

Start planting Morningglow. Also try to find someone who knows how to make wine.
You take some berries, dig a hole, and put them in the the hole. You cover the hole and leave. You also take some of the berries mash them up and try to get them to ferment. You fail, but make some nice morniglow flavored beer by putting the morningglow in the beer. It is not very profitable though +0 Latter you return to the farm In addition, make sure the militia is fairly well-armed.
you hand out guns -20
Also build a nice, colony-run inn for any travelers looking for a place to stay. Analee Island is a lovely place this time of year...and perhaps the Spanish would be willing to accept hospitality as tribute, should we be invaded. -20

WAR UPDATE
So, the French guy gets to inherate Spain? That would !NOT! be good for anyone. The Hre(German Federation of States), Britain, and even Some parts of Spain are oppossed to French rule. So war broke out, and we are at war. Naturally you, the colonists are to fight in America and I am to fight in Europe.
In war, there are things called generals. Guess why you needed your name. You can be a general, but all it takes is one misplaced cannon shot and you are out of the game. You can hire a general, but you would not be able to control the army from far away, and his army may end up like Braddock's expidition. Also, if you take everyone and put them in the army, you will not produce anything and your men will starve. I will sit there and laugh at your demise. Also, invasion will be VERY VERY HARD. Do not expect to take over the southern Spanish colony with light militia. Do expect to defend your colony with light militia. I may send over reinforcements though, and joint colonial attacks have more of a chance to succeed than non joint ones. It would be the most even fight when both sides attack.
In combat you will react to phases of short battles that will accumulate to about five posts for a major battle. If you are not present, you will not see this, just the outcome. You are mostly always present when defending your capital, unless you have fled to europe or are somewhere else.
You can attack three times, once each year. I'll be doing that more then you.
Actions
Raise Army (can do automaticaly in the start of war) -5 Au
Build a merchant fleet to aid the colonies. (Each colony gets another indiaman ship paid for by the king, doubling the amount of goods they can move from one place to another.)
rolled a 4. }:^{ You dissapoint the king, parliament.
#You guys can tax the people. You might not want to tax too much though. Or even at all. some of you like Lindiria are doing really well and have no need at all for taxes at this point. And then I saw Highlesia's post, which has taxes in it.
