Is that a small mech shooting down a warship?Aye.
Sweden certainly seems the most likely, seeing as you'll likely have to push them out of Scotland, though I wonder if the Norwegians will interfere.
Hmmm, right this is before William the Conqueror showed up, so yeah I guess France wouldn't have much interest in the isles.
Well with the HRE it would depend, wouldn't it? I mean if you start carving territory out of Continental Europe I can see them getting involved...
Good goal, though it looks like you're going to have to contend with the HRE, Sweden and France before or after...provided they're still around at that point.Sweden and Norway will likely be my biggest enemies. Thankfully, England's royal line is still descended from Harold Godwinson, rather than the Bastard, so no French interconnections. As for the HRE, they don't tend to interfere in island business in any of the games I've played before, so I doubt they'll jump in.
the British Isles have it good comapred to the rest of Europe it seems, though I wonder if the Scots are going to do anything about that Swedish foothold...England, then Scotland. I'm intent on forming the Empire of Britannia.
So after you take over Wales, what do you plan next?
Oly crap, I've just had my own version of the Revolutions of 1848 happen. First Anatolia rebelled against the Ottomans, taking the region. Then Greece won its independence in a short war, and then the Ukrainians and Tatars successfully rebelled against Russia, plus Georgia won its independence against them. Then the Ottomans suffered a revolution which turned it into a Republic. That's all in addition to what I've been going through. I've had two attempted Republican Revolutions, two Bavarian rebellions and two Danish rebellions. The Danish and Bavarian rebellions were put down easily enough, but the two attempted revolutions were close calls. Other than living a remarkably blessed life, the only reason I beat the revolutionaries was because I thought ahead of time, and placed elite units like the Garde du Corps and Superior Prussian Infantry in Berlin.Clearly, pepper spray is needed.
And there's still unrest in Bavaria, Denmark and Berlin. I suspect I'm going to be fighting revolutionaries and rebels for awhile yet. Can't even remove the universities, as while they're the primary cause, they're needed for research.
What I meant was that I thought the HRE was the first form of a unified Germany, seeing as it was multiple German-states loosely united under the Holy Roman Empire.The HRE was more of a symbolic union than a true unified state in the historical sense, due to in-fighting and the like.
Makes sense, though I thought the HRE was Germany.
Requiem for EA/BioWareHuh. That's...depressing. Not unexpected, but depressing.
Wait...do they use it again in Gears 3?!?!?Oh, yeah, they do.
I do, and if you've really taken the time to learn to speak Cthulhu, then you are pretty much the ultimate nerd....
