The Wilting Flower of Chivalry - 1360 IH

['Gunny]

Excellent....

[Amaz]

Won't be able to set myself up 'till tomorrow afternoon, unfortunately,

and in addition, could you hold a moment Cels

[Celsius]

i suppose....

[Barry Goldwater]

Mercenaries and knightly orders done.

Also, if you haven't done a faction thread yet (Pericles & Dan, I'm looking at you) set up one ASAP, the game has officially begun.

[Kip]

Are we only allowed to have one trade agreement of a given level, or could we make all three of our slots level 5 if we wished?

[Prodigal]

If it goes the same as the previous games, all three can be level 5.

[Jingo Eugene]

Day 1 Report-
France struggles to acquire trade partners or allies, even the close ally of Scotland is unable to assist France.

Poland has three major player nations to come to them with level-five trade agreements. Man Poland's going to be rich.

Almost sickening... But in a good way.

[Xion]

Excellent....

Let me guess- Replace Hanseatic with Brandenburg League. Probably same with Genoa...and Milan.

Also..will any of the NPC factions join the trade leagues, or are they player only?

['Gunny]

Eh, didn't even think of making a trade league after taking them over

good idea though

[Xion]

I was just presuming that if a faction took over a trade league's capitial, they would get to become the trade league. Or if they conquered the trade league.

['Gunny]

Yea, idk how that would work. I think that having the ability to srat up a trade league would be better (with due hits in relations from the established leagues)

[Pericles of Athens]

Barry can't find the ottoman vassels can you find them or send me to a site with them?

Not surprising, you picked a sleeping giant. France could be a major power, but at the moment their king is in jail, they're broke, their own vassals are plotting against them, and frankly, no one really likes the French. No one wants to invest in what they believe is a lost cause. Just like investing in stocks.

As for Poland, yea that is kind of weird. It's always the neutral ones isn't it? I mean, look at the Swiss!

and someone they won the longest war in History.

(I dont count that charade with the Dutch & Sicily. )

['Gunny]

Scilly*

And Scilly won

[Celsius]

I just think it's funny that no one's worried about England acquiring France's rich lands, and their people. It'd totally tip the scales in the English's favor and mean no one could stand up to them. I mean, Iberia is divided between Castile, Aragon, Navarre, Portugal and Granada. Not to mention Italy.

[Prodigal]

And England is a close friend of mine.

I like powerful close friends.

['Gunny]

I am going to make an FPA for this, any objections?

[Dave Strider]

A what?
