Dawn of Russians

Thanks to Arabia and Argentina we keep our tech level stable. The courthouse system is under construction. And economy proceeds well, mainly due to our large treasury reserves.

What should we research next? We have advances research institutes from now on, we should keep them busy. I propose rifling.

Should we colonise and where? Unfortunately Cuba is already colonised by Spain. There are some good spots in the other side of the pacific like Alaska and Cascadia.

I request the two pacific settlers again. I request five more horsemen, our rivals are slightly more powerful than us.

Feel free to add new subjects and strategies to the council. We can do many things, like try to strengthen our partners, change partners, conduct a war, stop all production to produce wealth, fund solely espionage, build monasteries and temples (OCC: they produce +2 espionage) etc...

Reposting, so that it is visible to others too. I'm sure it would be lost there.

Landists:
+2XP per unit trained
+25% faster land unit training

I've posted build orders in the group but Krasnodar can contribute a horseman to your needs if you so wish.

If we were to colonize I believe it should be the East Coast of this new world after all this is closest to us.

Landists

We should go after Alaska.

Navist Also the citizens of Sankt-Peterburg are willing to raise toe regiments of horsemen to help with the protecting of our nation.

Pro-Army

I suggest the colonization of Alta California.

We have no use for a navy. Only the Baltic sea can be considered a front to attack or be attacked, and that's no reason to change our whole government. Landist Also, I say we begin the colonization of Alaska and into Oregon.

Landist

Also, we should expand to Alaska once the chance arises.

No use for a navy!? Say that to any of the citizens of Sankt-Petersburg and they'll tar and feather you!

Hmm so I'm playing a Russia game myself and I just switched over to communism. Turns out the names of Caricyn and Sankt-Peterburg change. Joy.

That's actually pretty neat. I did not know that.

To what? Leningrad and Stalingrad.

I was going to keep it a secret in case we switch to communism someday but all righty.

Well I mean it's historic fact

Well I didn't know this. I'm not too versed in the whole part of Russian history where we talk about the takeover of the Red Army.

So I was right? That was a guess. I've never even played DOC or Russia so I wouldn't know.

Yes Caricyn changes to Stalingrad and Sankt-Peterburg changes to Leningrad.

But I mean you could just look it up

I am landist.
