I hear that is exactly what happens when you have a bunch of people with random goals playing as a single country. Maybe next round they will reverse the order and you can provide some direction and have someone clean up the mess behind you if something goes horribly wrong.

Exactly. I really don't get all this "The country is not exactly like it would have been if i had played it alone, you guys messed up so hard" complain. Factually Sicily is still probably the strongest country in the word, so it can't be messed up that much. Sure, it is not as effective as it would have been if one person had played it on his own, but that was never the goal of this here. We have many different people of different skilllevels playing with different goals, all of that changing every 20 years.

And seriously, i find it quite annoying that most of the people of the end just decided not to write any AAR at all. The AAR is an important part of a succession game, if you don't want to write something, play on your own. Noone expects literary genius, just that you put some effort into it when you partake. I think for the next game there will be a rule that if you don't post any report, your playtime is void, because while we had a nice history going for the first 150 years, it became more and more fragmented afterwards. Out of the last 6 people, only 2 delivered anything. That is bullshit.

Next and last in line is Bourneq, please claim your spot. Give us a nice finish.

worst game ever. Sorry but I wont write an AAR because there literally nothing happened in my 20 years. All I did was clean up the shit I was left with when I started the game.

Basically I started with 8% war exhaustion, 22 infamy and after 1 year my King died leaving me with a 1 year old heir.

So yeah...

Only half decent thing that happened was me inheriting Bavaria. Which led to the Emperor wanting provinces back all the time killing my stability.

But seriously guys how can you mess up a country like this? The techs are crap, the country is all over the place, there is no seeable direction what so ever. I didnt think someone could mess up in this game so hard.

I can only see complaints in your post. If you didn't like it then why play? If you played and didn't lite it, why tell us how horrible is was? What could we possibly gain from you telling us that your rein sucked, that the ones playing before you were incompetent and that everything sucks?

This isn't about min/maxing, this is about having fun and telling other people a good story. If you can't do that then why the hell are you here?

Sounds pretty normal to me at that stage in the game (aside from the dead King/young Heir) ^^.

itt right now: guarantees and alliances are too hard :DDD

if your gonna bitch that you are are stuck in a 14 year regency why dont you try and force war other ways. or change out of monarchy. if the magistrate income is still good build plenty of churches or take church attendance day again. theres plenty you can do.

diplo vassilisizing minors and expanding influence are also easy etc etc.

people seem to only measure progress in this game by number of province gains




or failing all of this, just reload the save so the king isnt dead ; /

now that we are at the final player simberto needs to either make a new thread or just a new save so we can all play again! it was a fun experiment and i will definately be putting in more time to my write up this time : ) i think it worked well and i really enjoyed taking over a country that was in no way how i would build it :D

Here is my AAR!

I started out great, with 0 infamy and basically no war exhaustion and an healthy amount of money. I took a good look at our mighty empire and thought. Where shall our great armies travel next? What kind of riches shall I give to our realm? I looked long and hard and noticed something, the powerful french, are not that powerful. They have no allies and are in a war with Castille. I decided to build up an army (505K men standing by to be recruited). I built about 3 more stacks of armies with about 25K in each one. And overrun the french with the help of the bohemians.

After the death of many french and to my disappointment a lot of Sicilians, we stood at the top of the hill. With Paris conquered and half their empire under our flag I decided that no more good men has to die, and decided to sign peace with the french. We excluded them from the mediterranean. This sea is ours, and only ours!

After this great victory I once again laid my eyes on the map and searched for less fortunate opponents. And I realized, our entire empire is an eye soar. We need to clean up! So many small nations that are neither under our influence nor under our control. And so I put my finger on my monitor and and moved it around randomly and then opened my eyes and that country was going to die. (acctualy I forgot wich country it was thats why I just lied it was acctualy very well planned but whatevs).

The war has started again after only a few years of peace. This time with a lot of small unimportant nations but one nation stood out from the rest. The Hansa. Their trade empire made them a mighty opponent but not a match to out superior intellect and armies. But it was a very dragged out war. No one could finish the other and the people started revolting against my oppressive regime. I did force them all into pointless wars once and once again too be fair.

Nevertheless peace had to be signed. We did so eliminating tirol from the map and freeing th enations of morroco and Genoa (they got the island of Corsica). 2 new allies! And thus the hansa lost their control of the Africas. Now I am fending of revolt after revolt. And with about 10 countries constantly sending spies to make the people even more angrier. But Sicily stands strong! No peasants will stand in the way of our empire!

The year is 1682 1st of January. Our leader is KILLED! By our own hands tho, he was an inferiour commander! Event the Aftermath struck us.
+ Show Spoiler +
The Aftermath
"'$LASTWAR$ was an abject failure, and you know it!', the anger in your heir's voice is unmistakable. True, mistakes were made during $LASTWAR$, but all of them were hardly yours. Besides, $HEIRNAME$ also commanded troops. 'I believe it is time for you to retire, father."" The audacity..."
Option A: I accept responsisbility
Kill ruler
War exhaustion = -4
Stability = 1
Option B: I will not be met with insolence in my own house!
Kill heir
War exhaustion = -2
His death had to happen, for the glory of our nation. He was mad! Treating the simple peasant as nothing as cannon fodder (im such a hipacrit ;D). We loose war exhaustion. And our nation is alot more stabilized, but brandenburg is not under our flag anymore. We lost the personal Union. They now have their own ruler, meh. They we're weak anyway!

At 1682 05 I have to end my campaign as school is starting in like 20minutes and im already late. Said the new King, everybody looked at him questionably....

I dont have time to play the last year, cant wait for our next game tho! Power to sicily!!
