One day, Leopold took his map of Germania, sat in his Throne and was looking for any German based province he can conquer! Than he found one! Hamburg was almost left alone and begging for being our first victim. Port in Germany for our ship was a nice idea. ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/zP0gU.jpg) Their small forces were no match for us. So we took them down with ease. Siege lasted however more than a year. ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/ne9w8.jpg) That pleased Leopold so much that he didn`t even care about unlawful territory. To praise the God, he built a small church in Hamburg. ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/zAxHU.jpg) But his premature satisfaction was punished by GOD himself. That was not enough! Whole nation must be united!! The beloved Heir died just after the conquest! That shook Leopold to the bones. But holy Mother knew that our King was good in depth of his heart. His fervent prayers were listened, his sins forgiven and new Heir was given (with nice stats) ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/nSr2K.jpg) Leopold knew that he must be bold in order to fulfill promises of his Ancestors. He needed man, steel and new national idea! ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/oBNIq.jpg) With all this, he was now able to fight with Hamburg former allies - The Hansa. Occupying Hansa's only province in Germany, the wealthy Lubeck was not enough to defeat them. Their had more land in Americas. Our vassals took control of some of their provinces, but King Leopold knew that he must do it himself. He cannot disappoint GOD anymore. The Glorious Star - our only Great ship ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/BhDHS.jpg) , was soon followed by 6 small transport ships, produced in Italy. The campaign in new World was total success. We managed to conquer Seminole and Cayenne. But it was only Europe and Germany that counted! So peace deal was signed. ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/My2hn.jpg) That gain was approved, and we got another core. Our main goal is closer and closer. ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/NVJFm.jpg) I`m sorry, I only managed to play 5 years (actually i played twice, first time more than 8 years, I became Emperor, but forgot to make screenshots so it wasn`t worth it). I will not be able to play until Thursday or even Friday - so i think it is better to pass my turn already. However I would love to play my remaining 15 years after another player if it is possible. Here is the save http://www.mediafire.com/?fad0mf05o8sdgeu | ||

GET ready for total mayhem ! So I assume Ulfsark coudn't go and its your turn. I believe you wanted to have the last turn and we're quite far from the end? Not that you shouldn't play now. But there's still over a hundred years to go. | ||

I want to add depth into my AAR so it will pop up later (probably late at night) In few words, our ruler might not be longer capable of doing Great things (why - it will be in AAR), so i left all ways open for next player. I think we have to focus more on creating Germany or we will not succeed. Being Emperor and having Great relations with almost all of our vassals might be helpful. GL Simberto ! | ||

King Leopold was sitting in a dark cold hall, drinking good Alsatian wine from his cellar.. Some part of him wanted to sing and jump from joy, but he stood calm and quiet. His main task was still in front of him. He realized, that despite all this vassals, advisors and nobles on his court, everything must be made by himself. Suddenly, he moved his hand and the glass fell off the table and broke into million pieces. It was almost evening now, so sun was pouring through the window as always by sunset. Leopold stared at shining pieces on the floor and small portion of red wine near it. That moment was crucial. He understood, what must be done. -Call for my council now! - he shouted at his Guard. Guard was so terrified with this sudden shout, that he forgot to say anything. He was back no longer than 5 minutes later, assisted by 3 most trusted man at court. - What do you see? - he asked as they came through the door. - Broken glass and wine Your Grace - answered the first one. - Don`t be fool, i asked you about meaning of this! - he almost shouted at them. The looked one on each other, but nobody had nothing to say. - I will tell you. That`s Alsace and all German nations. Shining, but small and weak, surrounded by great enemies, divided and hard to control. Most of them, are our friends, or vassals, but what we are is not a real deal. Some of OUR people are under French occupation, most of them are scared of us but don`t trust us. - Leopold took deep breathe - It is not just mission from GOD. It is even something more! I know exactly what we must do now. Show OUR people power and some respect, prove that we are trustworthy, and capable of great things. - Yes, my Grace - Advisors still were not sure of what are their King's plans. - Build new Royal Palace for me! Spare no expenses! Lets show the whole world what Alsace is capable of! Wait, that is not all! Prepare our armies in Asia to war. We will conquer some lands of infidels. But use only small part of our army. Small but well trained! We will strike with precision and conquer! But call for our allies, we will see who will join our little war - said King with passion. - Yes, my Grace - one of advisors smiled. - That is still not all. Send our "best" medic to French King. He is old and sick. Make sure that he will not get better anytime soon. - It will be done - advisors replied. Preparations took less than a month. 3 armies - 60000 man crossed the border of Syria. Soon after all vassals joined the war. ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/FeFNB.jpg) Syria was big and strong, but they coudn`t match our army. Our strike was fast and deadly. We defeated quickly their main troops, and assaulted every city on our way. It took less than two years to build Royal Palace. In addition French King died. That could mean only one thing... Our King became EMPEROR. ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/68iQ3.jpg) In order to earn some Authority points. Leopold joined Italian provinces into Empire. ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/vL2xM.jpg) War with Syria was easy. Our troops fought with pleasure! Despite some losses due to constant assaulting of cities, and lots of territories to conquer. With a little help of Bohemia, Epirus, Trebizord, Hesse and other small troops, we managed to occupy all Provinces of Syria. And that is how Al Haas became our Vassal, and we gained some new provinces in Middle East. ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/vDjgk.jpg) Triumph was what Leopold needed. He was pleased with his gains. All was going well. So he decided to strike again. He chose only country in his way to control whole Little Asia and Balkans. Thrace was taken in less than a week! It cost us however a lot of infamy points. During this conquest, Great Britain asked for our help. But we were not ready to another war. Leopold`s plans were somewhere else. ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/oFy8x.jpg) All this success were not without some major impact on our Kings mind. He became obsessive and impatient. His unnatural behaviour were noticed not only by his family and advisors and led to some problematic situations. ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/EGtwX.jpg) More good things happened. we gained some cores, which joined Empire immediately. ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/CFp6t.jpg) However it was getting worse with Leopold health. He went through insanity crisis, he told that he was seeing future, constantly getting signs, prophecies etc. Advisors on court decided not to let this King make any crucial decisions. ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/zDoAN.jpg) So last years were peaceful and nothing really happened. A lot of money were spend to please vassals inside HRE, Alsace was fighting with infamy, and effects of overextension. Everything was successfully held of. All ways were open in 1729. And everyone wondered is it Leopold to lead Alsace to glory or maybe his Heir? ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/s1sUi.jpg) | ||
