[Chivalry TW] From Duchy to Empire - A Bohemian AAR

[Drtad]

The Duchy of Bohemia is considered to be the toughest campaign in Chivalry Total War, so let's do this. Chivalry has many unique mechanics that make it stand out when compared to other Medieval era campaigns for both Medieval 2 and Rome Total War and it is really a very nice classic total conversion mod. Its economy and AOR are difficult to manage, and its battles play out very differently compared to other mods.

The Duchy of Bohemia starts out with two provinces, both of which are not very rich. You also start out with a bunch of more powerful neighbors (HRE, Hungary, Poland) and nly one avenue of expansion to the northwest - so let's go for those provinces!

In this episode, the Duke of Bohemia crushes several pagan/rebel armies to the northwest and gets his country out of debt...

In this episode, the Duchy of Bohemia climbs out of debt and into a major war with the Grand Duchy of Poland. While the Polish have the advantage in terms of numbers, the Duke of Bohemia and his knights will not stand idly by... The Bohemian-Polish Wars begin! In other news, Northern European pagans continue to cause problems for the Duke...

In this episode, all of my neighbors show their love for Bohemia by launching unprovoked invasions. At the same time, the brave Duke Bretislav of Bohemia passes away, leaving the throne to his son Boleslav. Will Duke Boleslav be able to continue his father's successful defensive wars, or will Bohemia fall to the hordes of enemies? In any case, the Polish army must be finally crushed and the Hungarian invasion repelled if any successful defense against the Holy Roman Empire is to be mounted.
