    This area of history is not really my strongpoint, was Germany in this period still a hodgepodge of small states? I guess you haven't included them to make things abit simpler?
    Oh and if anybody would like to use Sweden (or Denmark) rather than the faction they have picked let I-K know so I can use Savoy. No biggie if I can't change though.

    You had to pick Saxony right after I asked why there were no German options didn't you? You will feel the might of my Swedish armies for that insult.




    Don't know how I missed them...

    Austria, Prussia, and (to a lesser extent) Bohemia are the German countries.

    Prussia aren't included, I was talking more about the smaller states in what makes up modern Germany, so Bohemia and Austria wouldn't really count.

    The Kingdom of Prussia did not exist until 1701. Brandenburg-Prussia did exist but militarily played a very small role other than being trampled by the larger countries until Frederick William I came to power around 1640 I believe. He had some amazing victories against Sweden towards the end of the war.

    This area of history is not really my strongpoint, was Germany in this period still a hodgepodge of small states? I guess you haven't included them to make things abit simpler?
    Yes for the most part. There were a few larger ones

    I think we should have a poll on the faction you hate the most.

    Shh let it be a surprise.

    Also, if I lose this war, I still had fun this game because I got to give a Frenchman a vicious taunting.

    I enjoy irony.

    Cheers, that would be great. Could you change my faction I-K?

    Will you be using any methods to try to ensure we ally at least semi-historically, or will we have free reign to ally with whoever we like? I guess religion would be a method to keep historical alliances. Sorry for all the questions, you've just given us a game with little idea how it actually works! I'll wait for our "tome of I-K's gaming genius" if I have any other queries.
