Belay that, I can't get the damn reinforcements to come in. Without them it's hopeless.

What happened? It looked like my men could march that far south, even with the cannons.

Suffice it to say I ran into a combination of technical and AI issues that I'd rather not recount.

Plus I'd be a moron anyway for attacking.

Taking save

Bordeaux is French no more...

Not a single German life was lost taking the Citadel.

The sacking of the French treasury vaults provided for 15162 florins.

I would ask the Chancellor to invest half of that sum into training and building in Swabia and use the remnant in furthering the efforts of our fellow Swabian von Salzgitter in Outremer.

Furthermore, seeing how the route east from Bordeaux would not allow me to reach the sea, I will march south through the Pyrénées heading for Zaragoza and will ask our spy Merowinger to scout the road ahead.

I will leave the reiters as garrison in Bordeaux and shall march south alone.

Save is here :

Exactly when the bloody hell did money start belonging to the General that made the sacking?

Poor form gentlemen, poor form indeed!!

Ruppel started this but I'll be damned if something like this continues without a god damn word being said!!

I'll simply remove the taxes from Austria so the Chancellor can't use that money for anything other than Austrian requirements if this continues.

Hughes de Cervole :

Duke Arnold, I did not allocate the funds but simply asked the Chancellor to make provisions so that the funds be used in the way I deemed fit...

I have already sent these funds to the Reich's Exchequer to be counted and thus have lost control over it.

The Chancellor will of course be free to do with that money what he wills.

My request was a way of making sure that the efforts made by my fellow Swabian von Salzgitter, who gave is life against the infamous Greeks, did not go to waste...

I am a loyal subject of the Reich, the more so for being a renegade to my own lands, so do not see in this the least sign of sedition...

Swabia has been hit hard during your Chancellorship, Duke Arnold, and it is only through the combined efforts of its generals that it is now growing again.

I find it normal that our efforts should be invested in consolidating our gains.

I know full well that Austria suffers at present but pardon me if I wrong, it suffers only through the inefficacity of its generals.

So to each his own...
