    Seriously, though, I would probably sit well with Venice/Milan.

    Hey! Karl! Keep your filthy hands off Italy! It will be mine!



    Only kidding, a new player in Italy would be a good idea actually.

    If you're in the North, Austria bullies you, if you're in the South, Spain bullies you.

    Clearly, you can't win.

    Bohemia is in the middle of it all and damn proud of it.

    Cool store, bro! I want some ham.
    No ham, pepsi.
    They make deli slices of frozen pepsi now? Awesome!
    You also need to purchase a small freezer for storage of your pepsi.
    It runs on batteries. You'll need a few.
    Uhh, I guess I won't have pepsi then. Do you have change for a twenty?
    You can sift through the penny jar

    Sorry guys, I've been away in London for a few days.

No one would see any aggression here as legitimate, so perhaps instead of threats (tactful and understated though they may be ) we could discuss what is troubling you. I do have grounds to be there as it was unclaimed territory, first come first served. And I didn't expand all the way south to get a port like I wanted to do, I expanded radially and in all directions, as you can see. It wasn't intended to slight you.
    I warned the Swiss Confederation in a previous message that I would not be able to support them, should they decide to to expand in the direction of Italy. Not only did they do that, but they also secured the Franche-Comte from Spain! Both of these seem like moves to aggravate and annoy the King of France.

    I am filled with sorrow to learn of the passing of my dear friend, the Duke of Savoy.It is to my understanding that along with the title of "Duke of Savoy", I will inherit a claim to the Kingdom of Italy. Therefore, I shall now be referred to as King of France, Italy and Navarre, Duke of Savoy and Heir of Charlemagne, a new title which I have just created in order to reflect the glory of the French Empire.

    Whereas the King of Spain has forged his claim to that throne out of the wispy mists of brute force and greed, I have a legit and God-given claim to the rule of Italy. If you wish to continue to contest that claim, then it's war.

    Oh, and I'd claim the 2 hexes which comprise Corsica, as Spain has already claimed Sardinia.
    The same goes to you. Withdraw your forces both from Burgundy and from Northern Italy, or it's war.

    EDIT:Could people put in their sigs what state they are, since it's confusing/annoying having to go back to the map on page 5 to work out who is who.

    Exactly! And I nominate myself! Get ready world I am here to ruin any attempts at diplomatic niceties! Until the USA comes around it is my civic duty!


    Not sure why Spain does not like me, I mean come on, we broke your ships, time to get over it.


    Don't take either of these comments seriously. I think I may be getting delirious. I knew those eggs probably were not good......

    You guys can have the US, so long as France allows me to send people to their northern (read: cold) territories, I'll be okay.

    My Speed Mafia games tend to have side effects. Sorry, you should read the label more clearly.
