Quote from SunTzu: "Minister of Defense Tony Montana has made Cadiz the Southern Command Center against the Evil Turkish aggressor."

Is Tony going to bring his chainsaw?

SunTzu · December 13, 2002, 16:28

He's bring the chainsaw and his little friend

Suntzu, how many times do I have to ask you to zip the f*cking file?

SunTzu · December 14, 2002, 05:25

Case · December 14, 2002, 18:14

Can you please zip it?

Yet more units have been brought up to intensify the siege of Edinburgh. Via 'wargaming'* English generals have belatetly realised that the conquest of the Scottish capital will be much harder then was previously believed. (BTW, nice work on the unit stats Henrik

)

On request of the citizenry of Danzig Swedish troops have been landed outside of the city.
The citizenry apparently thought different upon the troops arrival arguing that the army was eating too much food, denying it to the inhabitants of the city...

klesh · December 15, 2002, 12:22

Watch it. Another move like that and you'll find yourself at war. Thats the last time I discuss anything with you. I should sink your pathetic fleet for this.

Ottoman armies showed of their world renowned skill with the cannon this year, as Ofen in Hungary was captured in a furious bombardment and with almost no Turkish casualties whatsoever. An advance along the road to Zagreb also saw the eradication of a corps of Imperial Albanian mercenaries, once more with negligible Turkish losses. However, a bloody assault on Zagreb itself was repulsed by the cities determined defenders.

In the Mediterranean, Heraklion on Crete was captured from Venice today after several charges by Janissaries and their supporting Spahis. Whilst at the other end of the Middle Sea, a Turkish force has made a landing on an unspecified Spanish beach.

Side Note: FINALS ARE FINISHED!

The French Monarchy has joined the Counter-Reformation movement sweeping Catholic Europe.

As a result, are people are happier, our coffers are fuller, and our science is outstanding! Weird, but nice...

Henrik · December 18, 2002, 01:57

Your people isn't happier but your troops are more efficient in eliminating unrest

winterfritz · December 19, 2002, 01:18

You mean to tell me that science is good under the form of 'government' that put Galileo under house arrest?

Patient English · December 19, 2002, 19:19

Like I say, weird. Content peasantry suits me. To make 'em happy, they need reality TV, microwaves and cheap gasoline.

Can't be doing with any of that!

Henrik · December 22, 2002, 06:22

Bump for Sun Tzu...

SunTzu · December 22, 2002, 14:55

The campaign against Scotland has dragged into another year. Following more wargaming, the English High Command is on the brink of adopting a radical new strategy.

Thanks Henrik

The year of our lord 1523:
After a minor skirmish with the burghership of Danzig concerning the payment and food supply of our troops, the Swedish troops assigned to defend the city has cut an agreement with the Danes instead.
I've assigned the my troops to hold the southward road, cutting off Danzig from the rest of Poland, denying the city fresh food supplies.
Hopefully this will result in an easier investment for the beseiging Danish troops.
The troops will be withdrawn once the city has fallen.

In the interior of my country protestant reforms are begining to be enforced and priests all over Sweden now preach in thier native tounge rather than that of the iligitimate pope in Rome.
Positive effects can allready be seen as protestant burghers from various places all over europe starts pouring into Sweden.

I am also quite happy to note the growth of the wealth reciding in state coffers, as church clocks are melted and the metall sold and the treasures of the ancient iligitimate convents is redistributed by the state.

Galvatron · December 29, 2002, 12:42

Sorry to bump in but may I make a little suggestion:

In my opinion the red-colour for the English and the Danes is almost identical and may be confusing at the map perhaps you could make the English orange.

klesh · December 29, 2002, 13:00

The Seige of Danzig continues. We have opened the naval seige to allow Swedish ships to pass and reinforce their ranks. We ask that the passage be closed each year so as to prevent fishing ships from gaining food. We also ask ther Swedes to sperad across any terrain within Danzig's radius so as to squeeze the life out of them. We've taken the positions we need to the east and west, so you have the run of the area south of the city.

-KdK.

Henrik · December 29, 2002, 15:43

I'm not sure but I don't think ships can prevent city workers from doing thier thing...

And I'll see what I can do about the English, Galvatron, I tried to give the English and Danes distinctly different red shades, but it appears I failed then

winterfritz · December 30, 2002, 04:53

The invincible armies of the mighty sultan have captured Heraklion, delivering the entire island of Crete into Ottoman hands. Our janissaries continue their advance up the Danube unopposed.

Well perhaps I'm colour-blind

Let's ask the others what they think about it?
