Ahh, looks like I'll be unable to join then. Unless I get EU3 complete for christmas! :)

chronicles is the one you want iirc :)

and yeah just 'obtain' a copy. I played illegal versions fine before I bought it so I could get onto the PI forums

Well, if you want in now, you could just get the game... less legally and actually buy it later.

Haha, well I try to be a good little boy so I don't think I'll do that. (There is also the fact that it won't run on my term - time laptop anyway)

chronicles is the one you want iirc :)

Thanks Twiggie! :D Can I add on HttT and DW on top of Complete easily?

I think it actually works out cheaper to buy a new chronicles than to buy just HTTT and DW, though i may be wrong - shop around ofc.

and yes it is easy to do. there's updaters online if you have trouble with discs or whatever.

Oh come on, I have to take England? I thought that was meant to be a backup choice, if I couldn't take Venice.
It has England as one of your first choices, Twiggie, why don't you take it?

It is a backup choice. I don't think you fully understand the implications of leaving a major like England in the hands of the AI. There is a balance of power in Europe, between English nations, French Nations, Iberian Nations and Austria/Bohemia. If you leave one to certain destruction at the hands of a dumb AI, France and Spain will spiral out of control. And when one country pulls too far ahead the game becomes ridiculously boring because there is no competition any more. It's simply a massacre of the rest of the players by one of the players.

And why don't I take England? Have you even looked at the rest of the map? The balance of power is bad enough as it is without losing a French presence as well.

All this being said, sure, go ahead and take Venice. It just makes me stronger, after all.

Please accept my deepest apologies, as I didn't realise the entirety of Europe consisted of Venice and majors that you don't want to play. I was under the impression that there are over 80 nations in Europe, any two of which you could have picked as your backups.

Won't happen again.

much more favourable than actual aggression, eh?

The reason I'm reluctant to put you in Venice, Charz, is that you are in the paths of expansion of both Byzantium and Austria. If you would like to take some time to re-evaluate your backups, go ahead

*edit*

Okay, I'll play. So long as I don't end up fighting everyone I'm fine. I'll take England because someone has to.

Hansa and Novgorod both have Trade Leagues. (Then again, I border Novgorod, and I would literally have no choice but war with you.)

You could also just play England and be surprised that most of a MP session isn't fighting, but derping around.
Ask Hansa..

Novgorod is the one nation bordering GH that starts at peace with it, ironically.
