    I would enjoy having a port in this area, if you would be so kind as to allow me a hex or two in there, I would like to remain peaceful with you, and I'm sure we can work something out regarding these hexes, but a second port down there could be essential for my country.

    Yep I already ceded it over to Transylvania. If you want a port on the Black Sea, ask either Russia or Transylvania if they don't mind you taking part of the Crimea or Moldavia.

    I would also like to say, if any one is caught sailing through the Bosporus without my permission I will cancel all friendly agreements as I assume you are trying to take Istanbul.

    However, all you need to do is ask, and I'll probably let you past.

    Unless your name is Saxony.

    I, of course, mean you no harm Ottomans, despite our playful ribbing, I do have all possible intentions of staying on good terms with you, and I hope you feel the same. I do not wish to see you level Europe as I know you easily could.

    I am a little concerned, that Denmark take some of Novgorod without warning or asking me.....both Sweden and Poland gave me a heads-up first....I will overlook it because It's somewhat contested..

    The land was close to mine, and I did not know that you had claimed all of it for yourself.
    I did not feel the need to consult you on it.

    As I've said before, I'm completely content to sell you the land at a nice low price. Better than me having to spend time and money trying to convert them; they may as well be ruled by an Orthodox king.

    Again, as had been made clear- you never told me of your treaties or arguments with Sweden, and you only mentioned border conflicts in-thread: which were much further south than the land I occupied. I'm not going to pretend I made a transgression just to appease you; if you wanted all of the Novgorod region you should have explicitly told me, and then I could have used the turn that I wasted taking those lands on something more important.

    Make me an offer in private, and I'll sell the land to you. That's what allies are for.

    Rest assured that I will take on this challenge actually as a challenge instead of just another pushover AI faction from TW.

    Austria, may the best country win

    It's not M2TW where you can conquer the world with just peasants, militia and the like(like ATPG have done).
    Here you have only 6 orders per turn no matter how big you are. So, even one wrong order could doom you.

    Does that mean even the Netherlands can actually be useful then?

    Can I bang my head against the wall?

    Well, I use spreadsheets to store all information about this game. It's very good system and have made my life a lot easier hosting this game.
    However, I haven't used spreadsheets for one thing they are meant to be - calculating income.
    Don't know what I was thinking before!!
    So, I'll just need little time to insert all financial data into spreadsheet file and in future Report PM's should be sent when write-up is posted.. and not couple of days later.

    Since I go to work soon I am not able to send out pm's today but I will send them out tomorrow!

    I apologize for all the inconveniences this might cause.

    No need to apologise to us, you should be apologising to yourself for making such a huge task so much harder
