Either worked together in multiplayer, switched between the countries through saves, or edited the files directly. I don't see that happening in a straight game.

You have obviously never played EUIII before.

And through all that chaos, Friesland still stands strong (or at least I think that brown blob in the north of the Netherlands is Friesland)

I have, with all the expansions. And the AI doesn't have the intelligence to use attrition properly so it is impossible for the Iroquois so have taken over anything in europe.

Thanks for ruining the joke. _Ass.

Just got EUIII DW. Playing Milan and doing great, what with a lot of the provinces I need to form Italy in my grasp. I also have a PU with Naples, who was holdings in Greece. It'll be nice to inherit those when the time comes. Although, I need to find a way to get out of the HRE without losing half my provinces. Currently I am getting far too much of an Infamy hit for unlawful Imperial territory. And I am getting annoyed of "MAK X NATION VTE FER U" mission, when I could be doing far more useful missions. Like annexing Vassals or Conquers. I also need to find a way to get Tuscany. The nation is in the middle of my territory (If you count Vassals as part of my territory.). I have currently decided to wait till some kind of Conquer Mission comes up.

I'll get a map up as soon as possible.

Hey I'm playing Milan too! An easy way to leave the empire: Become Italy. When you become Italy, Roma becomes your capital. Nations are considered in the empire if their capital providence is in the empire. So as long as you don't join Roma up, you'll leave the empire when you become Italy.

Also, fuck France. The BBB is out to get me and is guaranteeing Burgundy. How do I vassalize Burgundy when France is Francing it up?

You know what's worse than France guaranteeing Burgundy? Burgundy guaranteeing Bar.

Ally with England or Castille? Spend copious amount of gold on spies?

So, whoever told me that getting the 2 islands ad Portugal would stop my CoT from becoming stagnant... You lied 

Not only did I get the 2 islands, I took over 3 territories to the south, all of them are going to my trade center now, but the stagnation is still increasing. I just don't get it. Is Portugal suppose to lose it's CoT?

[Boksi]

Well, historically, it was a major trading center in the 15th-17th centuries. The problem is that all trade from a province goes to only one CoT, I think.

[Micro102]

So how does that help me? If I lose this center of trade I don't see how I will be able to maintain any decent economy.

[Mr.Person]

Build a new one? Take over another?

[Dutchling]

Or do something like this:

You can also embrace free trade.

It's quite possible Inca was the human player, and Byzantium was chosen for the screenshot, because they had the near/far east discovered and the Inca didn't.

It is alleged that Timur's tomb was inscribed with the words: "When I rise from the dead, the world shall tremble." It is also said that when Gerasimov exhumed the body, an additional inscription inside the casket was found reading: "Who ever opens my tomb, shall unleash an invader more terrible than I".[53] In any case, two days after Gerasimov had begun the exhumation, Nazi Germany launched Operation Barbarossa, its invasion of the U.S.S.R.[54] Timur was re-buried with full Islamic ritual in November 1942 just before the Soviet victory at the Battle of Stalingrad (ref Marozzi 2004).

Timur the Lame is my favourite historical person now :V

[Jackrabbit]

That's actually awesome. Pity it took him a few centuries to get over his nickname.
