European NES (My final attempt)

[Norseone]

Orders Pm'd

I have converted to catholocism at the pope's request

To Russia:
How about an alliance among Slavic Bretheren?

 

[Volum]

Finland:
Hmmm Knights you say, i like those.
We should try to develop our own kind of special knights to make us harder to predict, dear king.
Yes i know, what if we could find somehow to first break down the morale of the enemy, break their formation and then press home an attack.
Hmm i just had an idea.

Orders:
Expand
Develope another kind of knight special for the Finnish:
Armed with both a bow and a sword the Finnish knitghts can pepper the enemy with arrows making several hit and run attacks before attacking with sword when the enemys morale is low and the army is spread.
The Finnish knights would have to have less armor then regular knights so they can outrun the enemy.

Is that okay????

 

[Constantine]

Expand Along Arrows with 2000 Men

Diplomacy

From France
to Wallonia
Brothers , we see that your trading empire is growing very well!
we would like to help you expand it further by giving you control over our African Holdings , the Balearic Islands , Crete and many other small islands that you can use to store goods and re-supply your trading fleet , as you know we have no interest into trading with foreing nations , and since we have no interest into expanding in africa those islands serve us no purpose , so you can use put them to better use.

Peace and Prosperity from Lord Protector Charles , King of France.

From Pope
To France

Please do not fight with another christian nation! Attempt to establish a border between yourselves before escalating it to armed conflict. There is no need to this if you drew up an agreed-upon East/West dividing line.

we tried , and the rhine was the line , but they refused to accept it and just expanded over it without even tryng to negotiate a diplomatic deal , they clearly dont want to negotiate anything with us , but if they want a fight we give them one.

So Now you either start talking sense into them and make a deal or we will be forced to defend ourselves , we are prepared to not expand further east untill a DEAL is made but if they expand further WEST we will be at war.

African possesions don't interest us much. We'll just go with the old deal where you allow us to expand further North of Aquatine, and we give you Corsica and Sardignia. We consider the matter resolved.

Old deal? what are you talking about , this is what i sent you

though we are not ungratefull for what you did and we are willing to compensate you for your effort , as soon as the French economy has becomed stable we will donate one economy level.
and that should be enough for the return of corsica and sardinia

as for the NAP we would be willing to sign one as soon as our lands are returend to us , and as for our territorial claims , if you would send us you suggestion about what territories you would like we could discuss it further

the old deal was that i gave you a economy level and you gave me my islands back so please dont expand further north.

OOC: how comes that Elba island (by italy) is still andorran , and zeeland should be wallonian like in pic attached.

 

[Fëanor]

More shocking are the reports that the French tried to trick the German footmen in Italy into coming to a banquet where they would've been murdered. However, this was due to Charles's false impression that they were in Rome. Instead the Germans were in Venice, where they hastily refused his proposal.

no not murder , i clearly ordered to ARREST them and send them in France where they would be kept untill Germany stops their aggression towards France and starts to negotiate borders.

oh and i had forgotten the expand routes

 

[TheSilentPuma]

to France:
We do not want war at all. We are only expressing that we do not agree to the Rhine as a border. We would happily agree to the current borders on the West (your east) as a demarcation line between our two kingdoms.

Iceland
I have lost touch with my people. I look over my kingdom and realize that I have let it go to waste, I look at my son, Wellsich I, and know my time is come.

I sail out, I have started the Icelandic people on a road, hopefully it will lead somewhere.

I am Wellsich. My father has disapeared, and his advisors look to me to make order again, I don't think I can do it. But I must try. Our naval commander has been bugging the royal family for a navy, and I know we need a larger one to support or colony, maybe start another one. A colony in Ireland has been suggested, not an aggressive one, just one to do trading in that area. But for now we must expand the one in Norway. I give the shipbuilders the orders to construct more ships for our mighty fleet.

I order the government into a better structure. Weeding out the corrupt officials. Replacing them with men that the people trusted, and that i trusted too. I couldnt afford more money to be taken from the government. I asked for any volunteers that would leave their established home here and head for Norway, so that we could grab pruductive land and become a civilization worth dealing with. And with those going over I send a greeting to a fellow Nordic from afar Eric.

Diplomacy
To Norway
From Iceland
We are beginning to inhabit the same lands. I think that it is a good idea to perhaps work a few things out, and maybe even allign ourselves against our zealous friends to the south, for the protection of our people of course.


Orders:
Increase fleet.
Expand Colony.

 

[Amon Savag]

To:Iceland
From:Amon Savag II of Norway

I already offered an alliance...So you accept!?

 

[aaminion00]

aw comeon feanor, you know I was just kidding. You're by far the most active member of the NES, and it's great having you. (Albeit slightly difficult at times.... just kidding). Anyways...

--------------------

From Wallonia
To France

We are overjoyed at your generosity! Of course we'll accept.

From Andorra
To France

Well between you and me, you've caught us. But we'll never openly admit it to the world. Andorra needs those lands, and if you want to establish your claim over there you better have your knights get there fast.

From Pope
To Germany and France

The conflict here seems long and due to both of your ego's. I'll watch from a distance for a while. If however the situation becomes such that too many christian souls die, I will personally intervene.

 

[naervod]

Still need a response.

 

[aaminion00]

the egyptians are divided so it's really up to whoever gets to them first. The more populated areas are a bit more accepting of Byzantine rule, but wouldn't hold it against the Arabs.

 

[Oruc]

Nope!

 

[blenderboy]

Iceland

To Norway
Aye my friend. That message was not delivered to my father, and I just found it on the desk of a nobleman, amid many other papers.

But yes I agree, we will be much better off together, and our civilizations will reach into the depths of time with the help of the Gods.

 

[naervod]

ORDERS:
Expand into Egypt, allowing all Christians freedom to practice their own religion and rights as citizens, except they will be ruled by an Islamic gov't
Grow economy through trade along Mediterrenean Coast and the Nile

 

[Amon Savag]

Amon Savag II of Norway had gained his alliance with Iceland that his father had tried to gain before he died from the backstabation of the French arseholes.Amon had to keep rebuilding Norway...With it's population for the most part still untapped it was a matter of time till he (or his son Ragnar II) tapped it...In which thousands of Norwegians willing to serve and die in the names of their king and the names of their gods would come streaming into the army of Norway

Since Norway's population was at an all time high Amon thought it was about time to start another monument...A monument given to Erik Savag the Mighty...He had fought off the whole of christiandom and would still be living if it weren't for the backstabbing french.

The son of Amon Savag II was Ragnar Savag II...Rumors have it that Amon Savag II will leave the population to be tapped by his son when he sets off to make a name for himself.The priest at the local temple of Thor said that Ragnar would gain the title of "The Great" when he gained power.

Although the gods favored Norway because of the great treatment the norwegians gave them,Amon Savag II was becoming Ill...Of an unknown disease (Leprocy)..Although Amon's job was done in rebuilding Norway and producing a child capable of ruling it was still going to be a sad day when he passed (Life expectancy is 3 more years...After that power will be passed to Ragnar II)

Ragnar Savag II was quiet at home training and studying...The old scrolls of Ragnar Savag the Ironfist and Erik Savag the Mighty were being studied...Erik Savag the Mighty,in having his life FULL O conquest wrote a book called "Book O fudge package"...Full of military strategy and whatnot that was given to his son and now passed on to Ragnar II to be studied.Ragnar had a friend about the same age as he named Harold.

Harold had been Ragnar's friend for many a year...Since the conquest in France when they were both boy's...Born in France..Harold was the son of one of Erik's general's Olaf.He was sure to work well with Ragnar II in the upcoming events.

The mood outside the top of the social class was at an all time high too!With more living space the population continued to prosper and the usual mood of war mongering amungst the men of Norway to test their manhood was also at an all time high...The swarming populace couldn't wait to be drafted..They even made their own weapons in preperation for the fine day.

Amon Savag II made the making of boats in order to secure at least minimal security from the enemies of Norway...These longships were used bye the Norwegians to carry huge loads of cargo and to wage war on a massive scale in the waters and over sea's unto land where they would unload hordes of Norwegians.

ORDERS
-Take the 1500 soldiers andExpand to the border of the colonies to the east
-Grow navy (Make longships)

From France

Prince PITATU Charles

From France
to Hungary

Very well my old friend , though this pact is merely a formality to us since we would always come to help our Hungarian Brothers.

oh and may i suggest you try to offer your protection to the serbs , just to prevent them from being conquered by the Byzantines.
and in the long run they might agree to join your great empire.

Peace and Prosperity , Prince PITATU Charles
