Europe cooperative multiplayer

[Magnumkiller]

So are we going to be playing this with 1.5? I haven't even tried 1.5 out yet, so I have no idea what to expect if we are.

Patched my game, anyways.

[mammix]

i'm ready to play ;)

[Elvain]

I think we could, but it will be much harder now.

The turn is on Angryminer now.

mammix, what kingdom would you like to pick?

[mammix]

hm, poland? may i? :)

[Magnumkiller]

Dunno whats the current status on Poland, as it might even depend on what Angryminer does right now.

Been a whole week now :(.

[Elvain]

I'm not sure if Angryminer would agree. I think that Poland is a bit too large to start with it, on the other side Angryminer and his Teutonic order has expanded enough so Poland is still smaller than TO.

But there is also big risk of war between 2 of us (Poland and TO)

I'm not very sure if I agree or not. But if it would be 1:1 I'd accept Poland

Looks like Croatia belongs to Hungary!

[Elvain]

kind of... :knight:

It would be extremely hard...

[mammix]

i'm good in strategy games, believe me :)

[Elvain]

ok, so once Angryminer forwards the save you'll be right after Magnumkiller..

[Magnumkiller]

I'll be sure to absorb Hungary so you have an easier time... or become my vassal, whichever comes first :P.

****s that I lose kingdom power when I let a vassal become independent or when they declare their own independence :/.

This is changed in Holy Rome mod (so if you grant independence, it increases your KP, also when vasal claims independence, his KP rises as he shows he deserves higher prestige), but not in the mapchanges

I just finished my turn.
My AI seemed to have denied help to someone, because when I started my turn the Order was excommunicated, at war with three countries, had a kingdom power of -3, several rebellions, an income of +9 gold a turn and bad relations with about the entire world.
I managed to talk the Horde, Georgia and Trebizond into peace, arranged weddings and N/A pacts with Lombardy and Bohemia (no shared borders and thus hopefully no claims, but good relations once my monarch dies), increased kingdom power by one and beat several rebel armies. If the AI does it right I'll soon have 5 provinces without nostalgia, which is good to know, because my monarch is old but still has no male heir.
I guess the Order will fall apart once my Grandmaster dies. Hopefully I'll be able to keep those said 5 provinces.

@Mammix:
Poland would be a bad choice. It's Hungary's miserable 2 provinces vasall. Hungary is, btw, the most powerful nation in the known world, with the Teutonic Order being the second most powerful nation (dispite it's problems). Poland is right between them. It'd definitely be a bad starting position.
Croatia has only allies around 3 provinces in each direction. No way to expand at all. I'd rather look into western europe for a kingdom.

[mammix]

easy, i'm very good ;) i want Croatia :silly:

[Magnumkiller]

We are playing patched to 1.5 Are you good on that one?

[Elvain]

Yes, I won't play without the patch anymore :biggrin:

[Magnumkiller]

I meant mammix.

I have only played once with Latins on hard. I must say I was unable to get any cities, and Hungary and the Holy Roman Empire got grossly big :(. Then I changed players and gave myself some lands :P.

[Okawoa]

me back from Naples, is there anychance to continue?
