    Chancellor's report 1230 AD

    This year started relatively uneventful, although Sofia is now under siege by the Hungarians eager to relaim it and the pope has sent word that he wishes us to stop hostilities with the Venetians or be excommunicated.

    Chancellor's Report, 1232 AD

    My lords, this year started much grimmer than usual.
    While I was delighted to accept the Swordsmith guild at Sofia, and accept a suitor for Demuth von Hamburg, I found that Thorn, Budapest and Adana were besieged by our enemies.




    My heart is heavy when I write you that our most honorable Otto von Kassel has passed away quietly at Acre, leaving the position of King of Outremer and Defender of Christendom open. His death will be greatly mourned for he was our greatest general and one of the most influential men of the empire.
    I would also like to extend my condolences to Swabia as Syele, wife of Sigismund, has joined her late husband in heaven.

    Chancellor's Report 1234 AD

    My noble lords, this year started again with mixed signals. Let me present to you the bad news first so the good news may lighten you up thereafter.
    The first news that reached me this year was that my current residence Sofia is under siege. However, I intend to remedy this quickly.
    Secondly, the pope has sent a letter regarding the Milanese:




    Further, several of our allies have made peace with our mortal enemies, except for the pope who is now at war with the heathen Egyptians.




    This certainly may mean that we may find ourselves at odds with our allies soon.
    The former French crusading army has moved north to Prague but has not yet laid siege. I hope to drive them from our lands immediately.
    The Russians have moved their force outside Thorn. I fear the FHA will have another battle at hand this very year.
    Lastly, and this is the worst news of the year, the plague has struck Antioch and killed many good Christians and soldiers. I shall arrange for Karl Zirn to leave the city immediately if he is not yet afflicted.





    Now to the good news. Sofia has accepted a master swordsmith guild. It looks like our newly conquered territory will be the heart of the new German swordscraft. In addition, our first regiment of Gothic Knights has been trained inside Sofia and is ready to be used in combat this very year. I shall report back on their abilites.
    In other news, Ludwig von Düsseldorf has been called to the college of cardinals to replace the fallen Tancred von Magdeburg. Let us hope that this man will have more success.

    Chancellor's Report, 1236 AD

    My lords,
    The Turks have unexpectedly broken off the siege of Adana, I wonder what compelled them to do so, but it also means no Imperial lives need be wasted this day.
    The Russians have laid siege to Thorn again, trapping the late von Kastilien and his two elder sons inside the fortress with the FHA. I await word on whether a counteract is to be launched.
    A Russian diplomat has concurrently bribed and caused a small minority of the BHA to disband. It seems that these Bavarian troopers did not feel appreciated by their lords.




    The plague continues to stalk the lands around Antioch and I hope it does not spread. I have ordered a curfew onto the city so that no man, woman or child will cause the unnecessary loss of life.




    A merchant's guild has been accepted at Breslau.

    Lastly, I am ordering Prince Jobst back towards the heartland after learning that the English have also made peace with the French.

    Chancellor's Report, 1238 AD

    My term is nearing its end and I am in the process of ensuring the continued defense of our borders and expansion of our economy to allow the next chancellor an easy start into his term.

    This year has opened with several disturbing news, and I fear that the next chancellor will be having a busy term dealing with threats on all fronts.

    To start off with the good news for a change, I accepted a Swordsmith guild in Ragusa. This should allow further production of high quality arms that give our soldiers an edge over the empire's enemies. Secondly, all our nobles are still alive and well as far as I can tell.

    Now for the more dire news.
    Firstly, the French have besieged Paris with a medium sized force. Considering most of the SHA is still undergoing retraining, Duke Scherer will have to defeat them with some cavalry and mostly militia troops. I have no doubt that he will prevail.
    Secondly, a Milanese boat crammed full with an invasion force has reached the shores of Florence but has not yet disembarked. I believe in order to reach out to our Bavarian brothers in arms, I shall disobey the papal bull and sink the boat, for I do not wish to see Imperial lives wasted and this act by the Milanese is an open provocation.




    Thirdly, a Hungarian army led by two rather unpeculiar subjects has entered the lands bordering Bran. I will dispatch the AHA to deal with the threat at once and erect a watchtower and fort from where the AHA shall operate, considering the southern border is now secure due to the transfer of Durazzo to the papacy and my taking of Sofia.




    Franconia is again assailed by bth Poles and Russians trespassing the lands surrounding Thorn, with a small force breaking through towards Stettin. I will have them sent back running to their barren lands immediately.




    The plague and curfew of Antioch continues...





    Last but certainly not least, it seems our old foes have returned. While I would love to teach them a lesson as I have coordinated the assault on them the first time, it seems that this will be the responsibility of the next chancellor. Considering this turn of events, I may be inclined to stand for re-election.

    Chancellor's Report, 1240 AD

    My noble lords.
    My term has come to an end and I am willing to hand over the empire's esteemed office to my successor, or continue furthering the wealth he have if you grace me with another term.

    Let me quickly summarize the events that have occurred during the last winter.

    Firstly, The Hungarians have dared lay siege to the AHA's fort and another small force has evaded our scouts and moved behind the fort, attacking Sigismund von Mahren. He was taken completely by surprise but managed to escape battle at the price of a few men of his entourage.





    Secondly, I have accepted a swordsmith guild at Adana. This now allows our troops in Outremer to be fashioned with more advanced weaponry. It seems that the smithies at Sofia have truly travelled far from our empire after I accepted their esteemed Master's guild there.

    Ulrich Hümmels son has come of age.





    It seems a new weapon has been discovered by the crafty alchemists of Europe. They call it gunpowder, as it is a form of black powder that explodes when ignited. It seems that it could be useful for ranged combat too, besides fireworks.





    One of the Steffen brothers (Lothar or Markus) has managed to cause a Hungarian princess to fall in love with them, abndoning her court. She is still in hiding this year, fretful of her former liege.





    The French army near Frankfurt has moved north towards Hamburg. Prince Jobst should be able to attack them this year still. Interestingly enough, one of the French Captains has named himself commander of said army.







    The Mongols are starting to leave the rubble of Baghdad and are heading west, likely towards Damascus or Jerusalem.





    The Imperial treasury is bursting with income. This very year we earned some 38,000 florins with 34,000 porjected for the next if no adjustments are made. I believe if managed well, we may gain another 38,000 this year.




    At the start of my term, we only managed some 26,000 as income. As such, I leave office with a boost of 50% per fiscal year.

    The empire currently spans 33 named regions, of which 9 are fortified and 24 are cities. Our emperor remains the esteemed Henry and our leading general is my humble self.





    My goal of pursing diplomacy during my term was relatively successful and we obtained military access with the Byzantines, improved our relations with England, Byzatium, the Pope, Sicily and Portugal. I also managed to forge an alliance with the pope and obtain military access during my term in addition to securing the southern empire's borders.





    All edicts given at the start of my term have been fulfilled to the best of my knowledge.

    Conrad Salier:

    In recognition of all that he has done for the Kingdom of Outremer as well as his role in the securing of Edessa, I hereby name Elberhard as Count of Edessa. Should he not wish the position for the time being, his father, the Kaiser, may post the build orders.

    In addition, I name Matthias Steffin as Count of Adana in preparation for his arrival in Outremer.

    - First of all, nothing is to be built until the plague subsides.
    - Gunsmith (if not available, then build ballista/catapult maker)

    Build queue for Venice

    1. Mayor's Palace
    2. Merchant Bank

    I've heard the people of Venice are dissillusioned. A Mayor's Palace should restore their confidence and sense of pride.

    Build queue's for Vienna, Prague, Ragusa.

    The appropriate religious building is to be built first to adhere to the latest edict;

    Taxes of the two cities to be set to orange with the focus on further trade buildings.

    Ragusa to build military contructions for melee troops as a priority.

    I don't see what the bloody point is of giving a build queue, since it seems obvious that the most execrable Edict 10.2 will pass. Since Florence does not even have an Abbey yet, the Chancellor will not be permitted to build anything until the priests are given fancier robes.

    If God is merciful and Edict 10.2 does not pass, the build queue is as follows (after the City Hall finishes):
    Inn
    Taven
    Coaching House

    Perhaps then Florence will be a place of amusement, rather than the dour place it is now. If Satan has truly conquered the world and Edict 10.2 passes, then the Chancellor is permitted to do whatever is required according to that monsterous legislation. If by some merciful miracle an Inn can be working into the Build Queue, I will be most grateful.

    [Henry:] Ahh, young Lothar reminds me of the importance of setting the imperial build queues.

    Rome: Huge Cathedral, Militia barracks
    Paris: Abbey, Merchant bank
    Sofia: Chapel, Archery range, Dockyards

    Taxes maximised subject keeping loyalty at 70%+.

    SHA Orders

    Two forts are to be established with one a little bith northwest of Paris at the crossroads and one a little bit southwest of Paris at the crossroads. The SHA is to be split up between the two forts and Duke Scherer should be in Paris. Should any French forces besiege one of the forts or get near it, forces stationed at the other fort as well of the Duke shall meet up and attack such force. Once that occurs, a tiny militia garrison shall be out in any abandoned forts in order to maintain the structure.

    Hm, I am under the impression we are allowed to post our own personal, free held queues anymore, isn't it all up tot he CHanellor since a Charter Amendment?

    Either way, the Chancellor can build what he likes, but just remember, Ulrich, to make sure military comes before anything else, even Church, and mkae sure Gunsmiths get high prioity.

    OOC: I'm away so I can't really look at the saves. The orders are generalised so specifics can be handled best by the controller.

    Please also note that as I am away all battles for Arnold are to be conducted by Ituralde.

    -----------------------------

    AHA Orders.

    Initially defend against Hungarian advances.

    Once Sigismund is knighted then it is to be split under the northern command by Arnold and southern command by Sigismund.

    As a split force both stacks should be maintained at at least 2/3's strength when possible.

    Northern command is to defend against Poland and Hungary, while southern command against the Milanese.

    An offensive posture should be maintained by placing the AHA's in enemy territory in defendable terrain and or strategic choke points.

    Once Sofia is handed over to the Byzantine's the Duke of Austria would like to reassess and re-deploy at the pleasure of the Chancellor.

    This is an addition to my orders for Paris. Paris's taxes are to be set to very low until the city has reached the population level for the next upgrade.
