I've never seen any bugs with annexing the Papal States.

Oh, well it was just a rumour I heard somewhere so I could have been wrong. Apparently its a event that keeps popping up if you're catholic and annex them to release the papal state, but it keeps popping up more than the single time it should or something if you refuse.

EDIT: At war with Delhi, Ming, Korea and Japan simultaneously. Fun times. Sibir is gone. Operation Fuck Poland is currently on hold till I have less other wars going on. Rebels are becoming a problem. Hussars have so far been sufficient to keep them in check though only barely.

There are some major problems with annexing the Papal State in CK, not sure about EU2/3.

As I understand it, the destruction of the Papacy in EUIII will result in it taking over a Catholic theocracy, if any still exist.

F12. I can't remember the one for the you+vassals map, but I think it's Ctrl+F12.

I think I have one or two catholic archbishopric vassals.

It is shift+f12

Anyway:

Good progress I think. Rebels are becoming a problem as war exhaustion rises though, I need the attrition national idea.

Currently at war with Muscowy, Poland and Vietnam (Dai Viet). Sadly didn't get any provinces from Japan as I forgot Ming was the alliance leader and made peace with them first.

Relationship with vassals rapidly approaching zero so expecting a massive backlash from my vassals once they cross the line. Currently don't have any enough diplomats to keep up good relations with my 10 or so vassals so things are going to get ugly in the clusterfuck that is eastern central Europa. I have actually managed to get my tech levels ahead of their time, even with my narrowminded slider and huge size penalties. I guess lots of money does solve all life's problems. I think Navarra might be ahead of me on the tech by like 1 point or so but everyone else is behind me.

That's why I'm attacking like mad and completely ignoring war exhaustion. The rebels are slowing down my momentum though.

Mmm, nurturing rebels in enemy provinces really speeds up the conquering process, because you can attack the ally-less new nation once they go independent and quickly annex them without using up your warscore against the other country.

And save?

Played Normandy. I don't have much of an Empire at this time, but the world has turned out to be interesting, to say the least.

Spoiler: Europe, 1416 (click to show/hide)

Nothing much has happened yet. I plan on revolting againist my French masters and their tiny army with ten-thousand mercs and a very badass military king. 6 points in shock for heavens sake!

Have no idea why the Golden Horde broke up. Nor why Iraq exists. Or why Ottomons haven't expanded much in the last few years.

Heh, Timurid empire is going strong, which is surpising. Golden Horde gets succession crisises which usually causes them to collapse eventually. Especialy if they decide to stay tribal as this masochist did. Looks like someone took over the strait between the two parts of the Ottoman Empire so that must be causing them problems and is probably behind their lack of expansion. Iraq is Iraq. Don't mess with them or they swarm you with suicide bombers. Oh wait.

France breaking up is surprising. Oh wait, this is HttT or DW right? I hear France is weaker in those, which would explain it.

Aragon is doing well.

EDIT: Wait...is that...Ukraine dividing poland/hungary/lithuania in two? O.o

EDIT 2: Polish Revolutionaries type rebels showed up in Poland, I'm gonna guard them like crown jewels.

Its worse on the other side. Ming broke up INTIRELY, reducing them down to two territories.

And this is not HttT or DW. That only makes the French breakup more surprising.

Edit: And yes. That is Ukraine dividing Lithuania in two. Don't ask.

Edit2: Also crub-stomping France. Their armies were insanly weakened by Noble faggots, and for some reason they thought this was a good idea to attack their vassal.
Now my army is besiging France's capital, and Noble faggots are noble faggots with France's only other province.

Edit3: Toulouse got themselves excommunicated. Have NO idea how.

Edit3: France is... interesting. I am fighting a war with them, and I have completely raped them. I have occupied every one of their provinces, along with their allies provinces, and they have no military units. I try and make them hand over land. They say no '-.-

They also seem obesed with the "Defender of the Faith" title, and grab it very time you can get it. Although, I don't think they CAN do any defending of ANYTHING, given their military.

Edit4:
These last five years were BUSY.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
Don't ask about Crimea, because I don't know.

Spent most of the game annexing one states or territories sepperated from the whole. Eventually attacked some nation France vassaled, and they delcared war on me. Dispite the fact that, you know, ALL THEIR TERRITORY WAS OCCUPIED BY NOBLE FAGGOTS. I crub-stomped the tiny nation quite easily, and took some of Frances land. But when I turned in my demands, they said no. So I besiged their capital. They did not say yes intill I took their last territory, and even then they didn't even let me vassal them! Or do anything else (Beside give up a few cores.).

Everything was nice and quite.

That is, intill Brittany came knocking on my door. They most likely declaring war on me because everyone else was doing it. So many was have been sparked recently by everyone (Including me!) that if I didn't know any better, I'd say this game was an RTS! The ensuing conflict was very long and VERY bloody. Burgundy joined in on the fun when it started, and that was very bad because I would need to fight the war in four fronts! Luckly, I had far superior numbers, and my awsome general which was also my king. After sometime, I was desprate to end the war. I took Burgundy's capital and ended the war by taking most of Brittany for myself.

And now here I am. And Iraq is still going strong, in case youy wanted to know.

Check your reputation, if you're over the limit other countries will declare war on you a lot.
