Basically, the plan is that we look for some guy that has nice colonies, and then we make him a nice offer. Maybe they will need a bit of "convincing", but i am sure they will see things our way pretty fast. | ||

I think the Castillians were faster, Portugal did not have any colonies anymore in one of the last safegames. | ||

Hi fellow Eu3 Players, much has happened those last 20 years. I had the honor to govern Sicily From 1573 to 1593. 1573 started violently as rebels were plaguing Sicily eastern provinces, and that mighty Austria, followed by all it's ally, declared war on Sicily (unclear who actually declared lol, I just started and immediatly there was a war). Sicily left a few thousand men behind to clear the rebels as well as to protect its borders from malicious easterners, while sending everything they got on Austria. Their massive armies were unbeatable in frontal fights, so the Sicilians had to mostly defend in favorable location to weaken Austria's troops. Most of their provinces got occupied by Poland and Sicily, and they finally surrendered, freeing Styria from their tyranical reign. Styria is now one of Sicily vassals. I will not mention every minor engagements because there has been many but I'll just say that our country then enjoyed a few years of peace (vassalized walachia, dismantled Irak...) until we could could attack Austria again. This time their 40k armies got smashed during an epic engagement where we had concentrated 45-50k, every single troop under our control. I was still wondering about what to ask Austria as a fair demand for our troubles when Milan attacked, backed up by Bohemia, which was really too much to handle. Fortunately a killer world war was avoided because Behoemia ended up only as a minor war partner, which meant that signing peace with Milan meant peace with everyone. We then asked Austria to release Hungary and some other territories which we vassalized. Sicily even inherited from Hungary and Piedmont later on. I only had few years left before the end of my term, our leader died, to be replaced by a decent queen (5-7-5 something like that) so I focused on expanding our manpower capacity. We increased our army size as well, we can now field around 142k if needed in the battlefield! But all this wouln't be complete without some colonies of our own. Indeed Brazil seemed a good target, not too crowded yet. I sent a few colonists and...pleasant surprise, most of Brazil was colonized By piedmont, which suddently became ours...pretty nice I would say. This pretty much sums up the most important events that happened, have fun, you can't loose now with Sicily :D but there are still many chalenges Ahead! The big bully is of course Bohemia, thumbs up for the one who takes care of them Oh I almost forgot lol! I became best friend with France, so much that now they are our ally, pretty useful . End result: http://imageshack.us/f/32/europeq.png/ http://imageshack.us/f/84/bresil.png/ http://imageshack.us/f/268/sanstitre4qt.png/ ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/8Lkzi.jpg) As you can see There is a lot more green on the map and much less White. ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/BbcmG.jpg) Those Green Portuguese Colonies Belong to us! ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/seZmr.jpg) Vacation! I took far too many screenshots and saved them all on the same paint page, and closed it like an idiot. So you'll only see the end result, my bad... I will re-upload them because of failed upload lo. TL Succession Game: http://www.mediafire.com/?yi9kbrjr1d0xfn8 Previous post.... + Show Spoiler + I have Played for a few years, I can give you a short recap, I will finish tonight. Started The game At war with Austria, Hansa and other smaller countries. I cleared the rebels marching in our territories while sending troops to annoy Austria. Didn't even notice at first we had soldiers in Venice, that helped later :-). I managed to avoid the bulk of their troops to take half their territory along with Poland. They accepted to surrender and to free Styria, and Styria accepted our protective wings. They are now our Vassals. Yemen declared war at the same time for no reason, and payed 50 gold for peace. We are now at peace, it's around 1580, with 0 inflation, we are relatively rich (more than 1500 gold and I still keep our magistrates count under 5) with no real target in sight. I see that you guys didn't focus at all on colonization so we are really stuck in the middle east with no real way to expand. Bohemia is so huge and I will not piss them off, and I'm not really sure where to expand anymore. Any ideas for possible wars? Should I try push into timurid lands, re-attack austria because they are at war with France and quite busy, or else? (sorry i couldn't post screen shots right now I write this from my laptop and I play the game on my other computer). I could try to free Hungary from Austria to really break them too... | ||

with that inheritance of savoy you should be rolling in money now. You have a free core on Liguria alone, not to mention the rest of the rich Savoyard territories. | ||
