You post them here (in this thread) as soon as their done. How long depends on you and how much time you want to put into them. I've been doing mine for the last week but it still needs a bit of work, i was a bit busy this past weekend or i would have done it then.
As long as it gets done (eventually) there's no problem http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...-2thumbsup.gif
Excellent. Should we do them in order (i.e. I wait for yours to be posted) so we don't give anyone an ulcer?
It helps to keep things organized by posting them in order. If you are waiting on me to finish mine i should be done in a few days, no later than Wednesday
Ah, no, no rush. I'm not even close to done. Or begun.
Sorry that my turn is taking so long, this school quarter is winding down and there is alot of stuff going on. I don't mean to make any excuses, just wanted to let you all know that I will finish my reign soon...hopefully will be done by this weekend.
Thanks for the patience
Nevsky
My Doge is approaching 50, should be over soon.
There are two heirs, one of them just matured...I have been trying to find him a bride, but no luck.
And like I said I haven't really accomplished a whole lot yet, just have defended against couple of Byzantine and one Aragonese invasion, in which their king was killed (arbalests respect no station). All the defending has gotten Enrico II's influence up to a respectable amount. Prince Lorenzo is fairly capable...no horrible vices that I can recall.
As far as alliances and wars. The war with Spain ended throug stalemate, but we are still at war with Aragon, France and the Byzantines. Plus the pope, just the last turn I did today...his only ship decided to attack me, we sunk it, but we are now at war with the Pope. (I will just keep asking and asking for a ceasefire). I don't plan on any conquests at all for my reign.
Maybe it was because I allied my self with the Mongols? http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...ns/gc-oops.gif
Oh well, they are making mincemeat of the Byzantine empire in Russia and are pushing on Poland.
Good news is that the economy has turned around and we are bringing in around 4000 florins a turn. There was a stretch there when the economy was pusing -2000 florins a turn...AND I kept getting the parchment saying that I was the richest faction...crazy.
Ok got to stop typing now...jeez I need to save it for the write up
Nevsky
Doge Enrico II Shepherd of the Empire is dead.
Long live Doge Lorenzo I
The last year of Enrico's 32 year long reign saw another attack by a Papal ship on our own in the Adriatic. The time it happened before a ceasefire was reached two turns afterward. This time it is more annoying as an alliance had just been made with the Hungarians, this alliance is now null. Also, we have enough ships, but not all of the Mediterranean sea lanes are covered. (I got a bit lazy towards the end there, and allowed a Byzantine galley to get through the straits of Gibraltar and into the Med., it caused some havoc).
Anyway, we are at still at war with Aragon, France, and Byzantines, as well as the Papacy.
We have one ally, the Danes.
The alliance we had with the Golden Horde ended with the Hungarian Alliance. They have pretty well ripped through Asia Minor and decimated the Byzantines. The Polish seem to be holding them in Central Europe and the People of Novogorod have reappeared.
There is a Crusade ready to be sent off in Burgundy, and we have the largest army. Perhaps the people of Asia Minor will be relieved of Mongol rule someday? http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...-2thumbsup.gif
The coffers are nice and filled with around 40,000 florins (I'm not sure exactly, could be more, could be less). With a healthy yearly income. There have been no really great building projects, not much has changed since I started. However, a cathedral is about to be completed in Venice.
We are at 120 in GA points. Ahead by about 10 I believe.
May the reign of Doge Lorenzo I and his Queen Birgitta of Denmark be long and glorious

I have played a few turns thus far. Nothing too eventful. the economy is in a fairly good state and the empire is doing well.
the killer instinct and hard sums V&V's are interesting.
I started sifitng through some stacks to find nice governors to boost income as I suppose this doge is a meticulous accountant.
I also assasinated the current pope who was a bit annoying and dared to attack our imperial fleet in the adriatic though his boat was the one that sank. guess sending assasins for a slight would be killer instinct.
also, managed to get an alliance with the great khan so as to secure our borders in const. although i'm not taking any chances.
the french are really annoying me and sent a crusade. I decided to let it through to avoid excomm though I guess I could have fought it off and then assasinate the new pope again. BTW, the replacement pope was a 0* so I decided for another papicide.
rome has went through 2 popes in about 3 years. I hope the next one is more amenable to a peace offer.
I'm just wondering baout why we have such a huge navy and yet we do not have any ships in the north seas?
trade doesn't appear to be that great and I hope to fix that shortly.
truly yours, the current doge.
sorry, just a little informal update to let you guys know I have the game and it's working out. too tired to be creative. will do actual writeup later. now gotta http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...ons/gc-zzz.gif
Hi everyone, some work came up and I would also like to start off my Sicilian PBM so if it's possible, can Sir Zack de Caldicot go before me? I would likely not have much time to play this campaign within the week.
thanx
There you go, be careful how many PBEM's you sign up to or you could be rushed.Quote:

yeah, thanks. There wasn't anyone interested in the sicilian game before so I thought I had some time before I start it and can do this campaign but apparently this isn't the case.
Sorry about any inconvieniences this may have caused and guess I'll be more careful about taking on too many campaigns at a time.
Don't worry it happens to us all.Quote:

Sadly my hungarian Write-up suffered as a result of extensive campaigning in Aragon.
Game Recieved, Gameplay has begun. One thing I want to point out is that next week (starting this saturday) I will be going to London England for a week. Now, I can probably end MY reign and pass it on but I can't Getthe write up done till after next week, sorry http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...cons/mecry.gif
No problems mate, if you leave some placeholder posts in this thread you should be able to come back and edit your write ups into them to keep it in sequence.Quote:

I supose this post is as good as any to leave a placeholder. It will be edited with my write-up.
However, Unfortunately for you guys my reign is taking longer than expected and since I'm leaving tommorow, Well, Next week you can download my reign after I'm finished, sorry guys http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...ons/tongue.gif
I'm going to be away from my MTW for about two weeks.
If my turn comes up could you skip me?
I doubt I will be away long enough to miss my next turn...but if you feel you need to you can remove me from the list for now.
I still have internet access, so my write-up will be done shortly.
Thanks
My end has finished, last week In fact. I will send it to The_Emperor sometime this week in a zip format if The_Emperor would be so kind to supply his E-mail address.
However on a more serious note my write up will be done later and placed in the placeholder posted earlier, sorry for the long wait and it looks like were out of Doge's
Better get some recruiting done.
Edit: Just checked and It looks like Katank is up next. If he sends his email I'll mail it to him.
You don't need my email address, just compress it in a .ZIP file and upload it to the Org's filespace.
Here is the link.
http://www.totalwar.org/Downloads/Up.../pbmupload.php
Will do.....this week (sometime)
Is there any chance of me being added to the list?, you seem to be low on future Doges.
My email is ukpedro@hotmail.com
yeah sure.Quote:

Given that katank had problems with his Savegames when he was doing the Scillian PBEM, I think that means your up next Vile_Mortis (unless Katank has overcome his Savegame problems)
You now get to play Doge Lorenzo I (The 1254 Savegame)
