Sid Jairo's Europa Forumalis: Total War - time for some REAL nation rp

[ZombiLoin]

Turks accept trade with Spain, but place heavy taxes on export of spices and coffee...

[Ad Bot]

[Jairo]

sorry ;-;

I just kinda expected it, and besides, the Pope is Catholic, not christian in general.

well protestantism won't be founded for another 110 years, so...

christianity is really the only type of christianity around

[Mr. Hurricane]

Catholicism and Eastern Orthodox are around.

[Jairo]

Catholicism and Eastern Orthodox are around.

which are both branches of christianity

albeit catholicism (relating to roman catholicism) won't be officially distinguished until the founding of protestantism in 1517 by martin luther (which divides the christian faith between the church's doctrine and lutherian doctrine)

trust me.

[Maxwell.]

man I need to ally with some other nations :c

[Mikoyan]

Oh, and Miko, trading with the Turks is a no-go unless you want the Pope's favor going down.

I think I know what I'm doing thanks. I don't need a tip every post. Especially from Britain.

Spain makes its primary national focus on settling the rest of the Caribbean and establishing a main colonial naval base in Cuba.

[Mr. Hurricane]

Eastern Orthodox has less attachment to the Pope of I'm correct.

[Jairo]

nations which have founded colonies on foreign continents may grant them selective independence (eg you can make them a separate country, although they will still be vassalized under your empire)

Eastern Orthodox has less attachment to the Pope of I'm correct.

yes indeed

but I'm trying to simplify the religion metagame as much as possible so christianity is christianity

until martin luther arrives

England spreads north one tile in the Americas. They also expands east in Africa, and along the coast of the north waters north of Europe. The colonist want to have a seat in the British parliament and want to be named a "state" of the English, the British agree.

A large naval base is being built on the shore of the Carolinas, and a port is also being built not too far.

[Mikoyan]

Spain calls for a 2nd crusade on the Moors, expecting the papacy to back our decision. Spanish forces are moved into Portuguese North Africa.

Expansion in the Americas is halted for the time being.

[Swat 3]

England sighs really loudly and only sends 20 Rangers and 400 Knights and 600 Men-At-Arms, the majority of the Knights and Men-At-Arms using the Katana-like swords. The Queen is expecting good results with the use of eastern craftmenship.

They explain that the Rangers are expecting to control some of the other Crusaders of the other nations

[Mr. Hurricane]

*cough swat respond 2 Aces thread plox, Xavier's waiting for our response cough*

STATE OF AFFAIRS

CRUSADE CALLED!
NATION DISCOVERED!

Those barbaric Moors are back at it again. Spain has called a Holy Crusade, now blessed by the Pope, against them. All nations of Christian faith are urged to join in on the effort.

Joining in will:
- Halt expansion in Africa/Europe
- Increase favor with the Pope
- Decrease your national treasury
- Decrease diplomatic relations with the Islamic nations of the world

Not joining will:
- Drastically decrease favor with the Pope
- Decrease diplomatic relations with the Christian nations of the world
- Limit movement through Christian-occupied territories

[Swat 3]

England asks the Portuguese if they can use their route to the Asian areas, and they also ask for an alliance.

High taxes are placed on luxury items so England can still have a little bit of a balanced economy with the Crusade and all.

[Jairo]

England asks the Portuguese if they can use their route to the Asian areas.

the portuguese accept but request a tax of 15% on all goods
