I don't know if this was the case here, but I found naval attacks and minor little battles (with the Poles in my case) chalked up negative points with the Pope for little gain. In the end I decided it was better to save up the violations for significant attacks and let the little fish go.
Been sinking their fleets that transported troops.
Not a big deal though since it isn't an excomm warning.
Our good Pope is ungrateful, we got him elevated at such an early age, and now the power's gone to his head.
Being 34 (?), we should be extremely careful about pissing him off, his animosity will last a long time. Certainly a good reason for electing older popes.
At the end of my Chancellorship, I attacked a small French fleet, and that triggered a papal warning. I tend to agree with econ's philsophy after learning my lesson.
Sometimes, not often, I miss being excommunicated. Perhaps the Reich should become Orthodox Christian. :laugh4:
Factionheir.Do you have the army ready to take on the ex crusader French stack.I could fight them anytime starting now.:smash:
There's always the BHA, I'd like to get my other two sons bloodied.
If you want the French they are all yours.:yes: My character is going to Franconia anyway and i could take a route around the French army.Quote:

where exactly is the french stack?
I just checked and they are little West from Prague.
hhhmmmm, well if we can catch them
If they head west or south the BHA can take them.
The headed north towards Prague from Vienna and the BHA is already back in Italy.
I was hoping Kagemusha could reach them this turn, but noticed he didn't have enough MP, so it won't be till next year. I have moved all forces available into Prague though, so that should allow us to strike at them next turn with a large force. Jonas is still in Vienna as I don't want to send him alone somewhere near Prague where he can get hit by the stack without reinforcements.
Its possible they will head west towards Nuremburg and besiege that, but then we'd still reach them next turn (although maybe not with Kagemusha in command but an unassigned avatar...) or the turn after with Kagemusha.
I suppose I'll have a look how far I can move individual armies. Maybe I can get em to attack Kagemusha near Prague.
Or maybe they are on their road back to France, which I suspect.
I suspect them to target Paris, let Kage shadow them, and let the SHA prepare a trap
This kind of discussion would be good in character in the Diet - eager nobles straining for the glory; debates over strategy etc.

Get us excomminicated via a loophole in the Charter under a pro-Papal Chancellor and we'll talk. :wink:Quote:

edit - loopholes are harder to find now - theyve all been found and amended
edit2 - heres a potential loophole
"4.2 Bavaria and Franconia have no Duke yet, so there are Stewards to act in their place until them. Until there is a Duke, they receive the +2 influence of a Duke."
not really much difference if that one was attacked cuz stewards are just dukes without the title. back before amendments made stewards just plain dukes without the title, that would have been a good one, but not anymore.

Some men Crusade for God. Some men Crusade for Glory. Others do it for excellent bud at low, low prices.

Considering TC is our resident lawyer, he'll find any loophole he wants to find. Lothar leading a 5 man army anyone? :grin:
And no, I don't think we'll get excommunicated this term. Unless someone wants his own avatar to do something silly.
