Game 3

Just thought I would open a new topic now seeing as the succession appears to be settled.

Look for some stuff from the Tsar in the next press.....

Will do...

How goes Denmark in Game III?

Well, apart from the new Emperor thinking he can bully me and my economy taking a bashing it's all ok.

I held that post for a while... Married the Princess before I left!

Didn't realise.

Denmark was my first Glory position and its been interesting. I've also managed to keep friendly with just about everyone and have started to expand colonially (on a small scale)-bought a 2nd West Indies outpost off India (yes, India) and found a 'lost' Danish colony north of Sermapore. Until the 18th Century credit crunch hit, I had planned to approach France and try and buy back Iceland.

One day, I'd really like to play an 'intact' Denmark (still has Norway, Iceland, Greenland)

I may pick up a small country from time this Winter as well. I have my hands full now with the the one that I have.

Well my 2 over seas colonies are now flourishing cities took me 2 years 20,000 recruits and a lotta money but they are now operational!

oo mine arrived today reading it now!!!!!

my turn arrived by email yesterday but still have it posted as well, old habits! And only get my letters in the postal reply.

Optimistic because Austria transferred control of a Budapest orphanage to me this turn.... small events like this point to a conclusion of the various succession issues.

When my cavalry left Ceuta they were Spanish but arrived with Burgundian flags that they must have dusted down after years in their saddle bags!

lol saw that, I found I had 10 C in Kursk thought they were cavalry but where corvettes in Kursk!!! Now how do i get them to sea?

Oh good, I just thought I was going mad...

new footsteps in the corridors of power arriving this very month

where , who, how?

Anyone else's economy suffering?

Spain is waiving tax this game year as a stimulus for the economy and a coronation celebration for King Joseph's subjects.

Mine is....and I've only been in power five seconds !

Still that makes me just that little bit more dangerous...nothing to lose

Mine is suffering quite a bit as well

on the contrary mine is doing very well....

The campaign in Morocco is running perfectly.

With regard to Hungary, which was unified with Croatia in 1102, while Hungary, Austria and Croatia shared a monarch the boundaries of each state weren't an issue. However now that King Joseph rules Hungary and Croatia Austrian forces still occupy Fiume and Zagreb

things look to get very interesting in game 3 shortly me thinks....

Oi Mr Tsar....are you going to be picking on me ?!!

Moi? pick on you?

surely it is the other way round?

Harrasing my churches kicking out my ambasador?

I have been very nice to you and this is how you repay me

Anyone who has been in game three long enough: do you remember if the current Stuart dynasty in England was the result of a successful (and more importantly, an entertaining) Jacobite position? With game 8 approaching, I thought I'd ask about what seems an interesting ahistorical outcome.

yes it was the player took it on and won through.....had some hard work at the beggining kicking foregin troops out etc to reclaim his crown etc if i remmember correctly...

I was surprised that the Jacobite position was succesful and reclaimed the throne in game 3, all those years ago, but with the players in game 8 so experienced I doubt it will happen again so easily, if at all.
