The Thirty Years War [Concluded]

[Askthepizzaguy]

White Eyes, you need to change your avatar. I am confused as to which you are Tribesman or a Warman alt with that picture.

Much better. That's the W_E I remember.

[Ibn-Khaldun]

It depends who Bohemia has left it's territory to.



Of course you do, you own it!

AVSM left his lands to ....


Did you really think I will tell you that? The person who receives that land knows it and that's enough..

I think you should switch to Russia ATPG...

I don't know when I will get my account back...

And seeing Russia sit there and do nothing....it makes me want to cry...

Russia can do many things.. like starting The Great Northern War about 80 years before it's time!

Ah well I have had enough time to prepare, its time to make it official.
I, King Felipe the Third, Declare that Spain is to wage war on the kingdom of france untill thier armies are quelled and thier government conceeds defeat or is otherwise subdued.

[Ibn-Khaldun]

Two things...

Firstly, You don't have to use one of your orders for upgrades.
Just mention that you want to "upgrade your barracks" below your orders.

Secondly, I must explain sieges.

1) You need siege artillery before you can siege or attack fort/city.
2) You must use "Bombard fort/city" command
3) After that you can attack settlement.

Strength of the Fort is 5 and strength of the city is 2.
Siege battles are fought on these maps:

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

Fort


City

Green shows the location of settlement cannons(their strength) that "Bombard" command destroys.
Although cities have larger green areas this only shows the breach in the wall that "Bombard" command creates.
As you can see it's much easier to defend forts than cities.
Players should remember that their troops will be under enemy artillery fire from the start of the battle and the fewer those cannons they have the easier it's to capture the settlement.
You can also just siege enemy fort/city by mentioning that when you send your orders.
Players can't recruit anything from sieged settlements(add units into it's garrison).

Hope this helps little bit.

Interesting, what abut ports? need to bombard them?

[Ibn-Khaldun]

No, since they don't have walls protecting them from land attacks.

EDIT: So, that means we have 4 wars going!
Ottoman-Austrian, French-Swiss, Spanish-French and Swedish-Spanish wars.

ahh interesting.

[Greyblades]

Not realy, seeing as sweeden can do "sweet fanny adams" to me right now, and anything they do later will stretch thier forces too far to fight off any invasion by russia or denmark.

It is only three. Spanish joined the war on the Swiss side.

[Ibn-Khaldun]

This is what he said:

I, King Felipe the Third, Declare that Spain is to wage war on the kingdom of france untill thier armies are quelled and thier government conceeds defeat or is otherwise subdued.

If he wanted to join the war in support of Switzerland then he should have said that. Currently I take it as a separate war.

False.


Sweden Declares war on Spain, any Spanish shipping can and will be seized by the Swedish Navy.
