Thank you. I'm going to try to tackle the rest of the HRE today or tomorrow.

I explained what the bolded and italicized nations are at the update section, but I'll go over them again. Bold nations are basically hard mode. Mostly Khanates. Stuff that's going to be falling apart soon and will see a LOT of mod events from the get-go. I've also done what I can to see who's at war with each other. I don't want to surprise people with that kind of stuff. It's a nice thing to do and it keeps the game plausible.

Nations with asterisks are reserved for experienced players with a relatively decent reputation as far as plausibility goes. Decision to do that was unanimous. That said, I'll be cutting down on the asterisked nations within the week. Crim de la Crème 14:01, September 3, 2015 (UTC)
