At a certain point in the game, there are quite a lot of messages that pop up at the end of a year. Buildings are built, new alliances, etc. etc. I get into a zone and just click away at times. Most of the time this is safe to do, but every now and then it gets me. The last time was when the pope died and I didn't realize it. The old pope hadn't been too aggressive about getting other Christian nations to attack me, but the new one went the other way in the extreme.

Is there a way to see old system messages that the game displays -- you know, like a summary of what was announced at the end of the last year -- or the last "so many" years? I thought there was one, but I haven't found it. Maybe I'm thinking of another game I used to play.

If MTW doesn't have this feature, it sure would be nice to have it in RTW. Just in case my finger clicks once too often. http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif

check the options by in the little panel by your world map (usually in the upper corner). you can turn off all non-essential messages. this should keep your message clicking to a minimum, so you don't accidentally bypass the important ones in a rush of clicking.
afaik there is no way to go back and read old messages.
