Imperial Europe 2 Map Game

Imperial Europe Map Game 2

I'm just trying to restart this map game

1. Exploring a new territory and colonizing it takes 1 turn.

2. Invading a new territory takes 1 turn, you can have multiple fronts but it should take slower.

3. Be reasonable about invasions, you aren't going to take over the country of Russia in 1 turn, plus a bigger country might be able to defeat you, especially if well connected.

4. Map changes from Europe to world (opening up colonization opportunities) after the first 10 turns.

5. 1 turn a day! 1 turn equals 1 year gametime.

6. Inactive users become neutral, unable to oppose invasion. (Still be reasonable when it come to invading them, they're not just going to bow down, only take the right amounts of land)

7. Treaties will be left up to you, remember to loudly proclaim at the sheer unfairness of treason when it occurs, we could all use a laugh.

'''Take notice! At the begining (1400), Europe will be intentionally massively subdivided, your country should start out smallish.'''

Current List (This will change when we get a map, just a pre-game estimate)

1400

 * The Ottomans invade the White Sheep Turk's territory.


 * Brandenburg invades some of the small states in order to gain access to the sea, but west of Denmark.


 * England expands the army, expanding the acceptable ages in the army further and giving the troops much greater amounts of training. English citizens begin to wonder about a "United Kingdom" of the two British isles. British government ignores the wonderings for now, and instead decides to increase trade between them and the other nations on the British isles, and builds many new ports along the coast of England, creating areas for a soon-to-be expanded fleet to dock.
 * The Portugese go to war with the inhabitants of northern Morocco and successfully take over the territories.
 * The Horde expands north. The military is expanded.
 * The Kingdom of Munster, in Ireland, successfully conquers the Kingdom of Connacht, also in Ireland.
 * Aragon expands Into Foix

1401

 * Munster continues to expand in Ireland. Hearing news of this "united kingdom" concept in England, Munster responds that Ireland shall never consent to join an English empire.
 * Aragon, seeking to establish better relations with it's neighbors, requests an alliance with Castille and Portugal. They also expand into Navvare
 * The Portugese expand their colonies in Morocco. The king of Portugal starts gathering resources from Morocco and sends out diplomatic missions to it's neighbors in Europe.

1402

 * Munster has by now expanded to all of Ireland save the pale, and reformes into the Confederation of Ireland. The Confederation begins a massive military buildup.
 * England increases its military presence in ireland significantly, due to the large irish army. England declares war on Scotland because of a so-called border infrigment. Many are skepticall about this, but a large portion of the English army goes out to war. Southern Scotland is captured, but the Scottish army wins a series of battles farther north, leaving England with only minor land gains and tyhe Scottish very angry.
 * The Horde continues to move south.
 * Portugal starts creating embassies and the people of Portugal begin to move toward a republic style of government. The city of Lisbon gains plenty of resources and begins creating more high lifestyles for the people.
 * Aragon expands into africa
 * Where in Africa, also how far, still please lets not make this another Imperial Europe Map Game 1. I need to know in case I have to change the map.

1403

 * All Players: Please make a country profile on the Diplomacy Page.
 * Ireland builds up its army immensly. The Irish Pale, longing to join Ireland, sees a serious uprising. The English garrison, although stretched from the war with Scotland, manages to barely put it down. Heavy-handed English soldiers cause even more outrage among the populace of the Pale.
 * The English rush troops over to Ireland, reenforcing the garrison. This causes Scotland to advance almost to the pre-war borders, but a well timed English counter-attack sends the Scottish reeling back. The English are unable to exploit this victory with manpower low. Engand resoleves to hire thousands of more troops, and with a year or so training they will be ready to fight. The English fleet is expanded again, and they move to blockade Scotland. English transportation is improved, with more roads connecting cities.
 * The Ottomans finsih conquering the White Sheep Turks.
 * The Portugese Annex their Morrocan territories as part of the Empire of Portugal. They also expand their cities in Morocco.
 * Aragon significantly beefs up their army. They also launch a surprise attack on Castille, looking form a common border with Portugal and increase trade. They capture the capitol within 4 months, and the rest of the nations descends into chaos without their king. Aragon easily defeats all the little fiefdoms, and merges Castille with Aragon.
 * Sicly, after building up its millitary for quite some time (sorry for not making my edits saying this, but I forgot about this map game) begins to plan its invasion of Naples. After some discussion, the plan is put into place: The First Phase-Attempts to divided Naples both politically and population wise. The Second Phase-After the First Phase, millitary forces will be sent in to help "Return balance and help prevent anarchy from taking over." The Third Phase-Afterwards, a fake goverment would be put in place in order to make it look like the goverment of Naples had been restored and overall Naples would belong to Sicly. The plan preperation would be complete by next year.

1404
Map Time! Add your changes!
 * Aragon begins to get better relations with it's neighbors, especially Portugal since it is a bordering neighbor. They also significantly beef up their navy and army.
 * The portugese strengthen their army and attack Granada through their expanded Moroccan colonies. Since Granada is not controlled by Aragon and the Islamic forces needed to backup Granada have been defeated in the conquest of Morocco Granada is easily taken over by the Portugese and their superior navy and military.
 * Ottoman forces invade the Timurid empire. The invasion is only partly succesful, with the Ottomans taking some lands from the Timurids but they take heavy casualties in the process
 * The Horde expands north and the military is expanded.



1405

 * Irish forces suddenly storm the Irish Pale. English forces in the Northern Pale are completely routed and forced to retreat south. The southern strongholds will take years to starve out, although fortunately England's conflict with sotland will prevent most reinforcements to arrive.
 * Siclys plan to take over Naples which began one year ago is finally complete and all land claims and territories of the Kingdom of Naples are unoffically part of Sicly.
 * The Ottomans win more land's against the Timurids, taking Baghdad. Ottoman forces march north as well, taking the Timurid's northern lands.

 * The last of the Timurid Empire's lands are annexed by the Ottomans. Trebizond is also conquered. Meanwhile, the Ottoman's began to use cannons and they deploy the hand cannon to many of their missle troops. A navy is built up as well.
 * Lusting for a larger expansion of territory, the Hapsburg monarchy opens relations with Burgundy under promises of an alliance between the two "equal" nations. Issuing a large recruitment order of knights and squires, the Austrian army is rebuffed with a much larger roster, including a large construction order for trebuchets and catapults. Cannons are also tested, and a small experimental batch of them is ordered for manufacture by the Archduke. Using this new formidable army as a persuader, the neighbouring Small States accept "unity" within the Archduchy and it's borders expand. Austrian spies and cohorts begin working within the Burgundian court, hoping to persuade the Duke into a political unity between the two duchies.
 * The English King tries to rally the people to take back the pale, but is stunned to see that the populace in on the Irish side. The king gives up on Ireland for now, and focuses his attension on Scotland. The bockade starts to take effect, and the Scottish armies withdraw to the north to regroup. English armies relentlessly follow them, hoping to destroy the Scottish army. England continues to devolop the navy, making it one of the most formidable in Europe. The population of England expands, and the populace begins to wonder what a "united kingdom" of the two isles would be like. The English king promises that by the end of his reign, the isles will be munited. Many are speculative about this statement.
 * The Horde moves north and the military expands.
 * The king of Portugal dies and a new King comes upon the throne. This King begins what is known as the Portugese revision and starts to change the absolute power given upon the noblemen. He esablishes an early parliament. More Diplomatic movements are sent out through Europe
 * Aragon expands more in Africa, eastward this time. They are trying to be the leading power in africa.

1407

 * The Kingdom of Sicly is quickly becoming an economic and millitary powerhouse; the aquiring of Naples millitary gave Sicly the power needed to defend itself from invaders while ecnomic reforms have helped mold the lifstyles of Italians. Recent data shows that the average Italian living in Siclian controled territory live in a middle-high average house and/or a High average house. Also, the introduction of the Middle class among the population have reduced the amount of poor living in the Kingdom of Sicly. Sicly begins to expand its millitary and ecnomic power and influnece among nearby nations.
 * The Republic of Venice establishes colonies along the Dalmatian Coast from Bosnia to just above the Peloponnese. in addition, they require that all of their citizens who don't already serve in the military spend 2 months out of the year training in the militia, all of whom are equipped with either pikes or crossbows. the Doge also establishes artillery corp, who train in the use of primitive cannons, and research how to improve them.
 * The Horde moves north, touching Muscovy.
 * Aragon asks Sicily for a complete military alliance, sending much gold and silver as a gift for the king.
 * Austria persists it's diplomatic strategem with Burgundy. After a string of interlocking royal marriages, the Duke of Burgundy agrees to a personal union between the two states, in order to support each other during these tough times. The Austrian order of siege weaponry and cannons is completed, and on testing the Austrian generals are so please they order the construction of a hundred more for their armies. The Hapsburgs also opens up relations to some of the larger small states of the Holy Roman Empire, effectively making them their puppets by the end of the month.
 * England continues to attack Scotland. In the summer the English troops are laying seige to Perth, but a lare Scottish counter-offensive pushes the English to just north of Glasgow. The English king sends small attack parties to Ireland, severely underestimating the Irish and gaining nothing from the fighting. The routed English return home. England 's industrial power, although somewhat small, starts to expand slowly, causing more profitable goods for trade to be made. The English people call for an end of the war against Stocland, but the English king convinces them that they have almost won.
 * The portugese spread eastward and southward into Africa in their moroccan territory

1408

 * Venice expands it's Dalmatian colonies, and spends a large amount of it's treasury expanding its navy and merchant marine, especially in the carrying trade. tehy begin to utilize corned powder and bagged charges in their cannons, so they require less metal, and fire much faster.
 * Margeret of Denmark is deposed and executed by her adopted son, Eric of Pomerania. His first act in office is to bring the massive (if uncoordinated) Scandinavian military to bear upon it's main trade rival, Novgorod. By the end of the year, Novgorod itself (and the Baltic coast) is under Scandinavian control. In other news, Norwegian shipbuilder Alexander Hagluunds begins experimenting with copper-plating a ship's hull.
 * English armies make a breakthrough on the Eastern coast of Scotland, catching a Scottish army's flank and decimating it. English forces secure the cities of Perth and Dundee, while continuously advancing foreward. The strain of getting suplies to the English armies begins to tell, however, and they are exhausted. English forces attack and capture the Shetland Islands from the Scottish and plan on taking the Orkney Islands to the south next year. Te war against Scotland gets more unpopular as the people start to rebel, but the breakthrough quiets the critickes for a while.
 * Aragon begins to get better relations with it's neighbors. They ask for total alliances with both England and the Kalmar Union. They improve their transportation greatly and begin providing protection for merchants that travel through. Their navy is famous for it's efficiency, and many merchants hire it to protect their ships. This rakes in Aragon much money. They also improve their military by requiring by law that all male citizens, and women if they want must join the army at the age of 20 for 3 years.


 * The Horde declares war on Muscovy. They push the Muscovians back several fronts.
 * Portugal copies Aragons military expansion and allows women to join the army. They also expand their navy.

1409
'''So, Scotland is now a weak KU puppet state... if you say its a province, you can't be serious. Plus, Scotland and the KU had an alliance at this time in history. Who are you, and what have you done with BoredMatt?'''
 * Venice continues to expand it's Dalmatian colonies by offering free land grants to those who settle there. many Italians from various Italian states settle in Dalmatia along with the Venicians. in addition, several colonies in Tripoli and Algeria are set up.
 * Ireland offers peace to the English king, and continues to keep the Pale's ports open to English ships. In the meantime, the Confederation is more organized. It eventually takes the shape of a republic of nobles. Plans are drawn up to Invade Brittany.

 * Venice accepts Aragon's alliance request, and suggests that they divide North Africa between them, along the border of OTL Tunisia. they also suggest that the Aragonese and Venician navies should takepart in joint exercises, to promote working together.
 * The English king doesn't want to accept Ireland's offer, but his advisors make the agreement for him. trade starts to fluroush between Ireland and England, much to the anger of the king who wants to see the isles united. Meanwhile, English troops contain the Scottish to the Scottish highlands. The blockade has forced many citizens of scotland to flee. In two years the Scottish should be totally destroyed. England continues to build up its navy, and creates large ports on the peices of territory that England owns on Europe itself. The English fleet is now very large an d England makes plans for it to become one of the world's most powerful fleets in a few decades.
 * Portugal invades Sardinia. They conquer part of the west side and depose the Sardinian leaders of west Sardinia. Portugal also hires German and Moroccan troops to attack more of the Sardinians. They promise the Germans aid.

Faroese troops under the Duke of Sundsvall lands in the Highlands and defeat the king's forces in several battles. Scotland is now nonexistant. In the east, the armies of the Union plow through the last truly Russian settlements in what was once the Principality of Novgorod. Due to Union support of Komi and Karelian tribes against the Russians over the years, Komi chiefs as far west as the Cheshskaya Gulf and as far south as Katlas swear fealty to the king of the KU.

'''Haha....That was me, as in BoredMatt 23:01, January 20, 2011 (UTC). Yes, I betrayed Scotland ;D'''

'''Guys, I was invading Scotland, and you came in. I still have the southern two-thirds of it'''

'''Ya, I know, I'm making a map. We just swooped in like vultures and stole the remains. Michael Douglas 23:07, January 20, 2011 (UTC)'''

As a way of compensating, you could overrun Normandy and take it back from france...Michael Douglas 23:14, January 20, 2011 (UTC)

That sounds like fun ):) Roguejedi 23:15, January 20, 2011 (UTC)
 * The Ottomans capture the last of the Timurid lands. The Ottomans enter a time of peace.

1410

 * Ireland launches a suprise attack on the remains of Scotland, capturing most of the Western Isles, which they begin fortifying. Rolf Emmerson and his army arrive in protest, but in reality they had no power or claim in that region. Ireland accepts the foreign alliance proposals.
 * England, having secured the southern two-thirds and the eastern coast of Scotland, has almost united one of the isles. All that remains of Scotland is divided between the KU and Ireland, a tiny portion of the whole island. England continues to build its navy, making it very formidable. They ask Ireland and the KU to give theri parts of Scotland to England in return for gold. England also fortifies their new gains, cutting of the foreign corner of Scotland through a seris of forts.
 * The KU declines giving back Scotland. The fleet is expanded, primarily in the Atlantic. The army consolidates their position in Russia. Skaggens Odde is fortified.
