Hindustan (Empire of the Mughals)

His Imperial Majesty the Padishah returns to Delhi in triumph from Iran. Capitalizing on the victory, he orders the organization of 4 additional armies (4 IPs), bringing Mughal land strength to six armies in total. Two armies will be sent north to bring the rest of Khorasan into the fold, and two will be sent east to subjugate the petty kingdoms of Siam and Burma, the tribesmen of the Shan country, and the Islamic entrepot of Malacca. The remaining two armies shall remain to guard the homeland.

Attack plan:

 

[Graceheart the Leopard]

Infante Manuel has led an army into what was formerly the Spanish Viceroyalty of Peru, as the securing of the region is instrumental if Portugal/Brazil is to ever have a standing chance in south America. Although the orginal force consisted of over 20000 troops when departing from Belem, Malaria and short supply means that only approximately 3000 men have survived the long and dangerous trek down the Amazon river and across the Andes. May God have mercy upon his men and the Peruvians. (READ: I buy armies to attack Peru)

[ilduce349]

I was unaware that there was a claims thread, I will post my claims here from now on.

 

[Lord of Elves]

So as I've recently been informed of a game mechanic I wasn't aware of, my edited orders.

Claims remain the same
Madagascar: 1 Fleet, 2 Armies

From: La Belle France
To: American Hooligans
See the missive concerning the matter of Quebec of His Imperial Majesty Philippe I, Holder of Many Titles, Killer of Many Impertinent Enemies of the Glorious Empire, and Object of the Desire of Many Beautiful Women in the main thread.

 

[Double A]

I suppose his men are very good swimmers if they can get to Madagascar without a fleet.

 

[NinjaCow64]

I invest all three IPs in central Indonesia. Again.

 

[Mad Man]

I build as many armies as I can this turn.

 

[Omega124]

I invade Tibet and Mongolia with my three armies with the same logic as last time, with Tibet being the first priority.

I use all my IP to bribe... the thing below Eithopia for a colony. Yes, I'm colonizing.

Change of plans. Invade Tibet with one army, bribe Mongolia. PM you the rest

 

[Duke Blackstone]

Official Claims:
Attack 3 southern african nations with my 3 armies.
Sell my fleet to Dem Taqet for 2IP

Purchase 4 armies

 

[Dem Taqat]

Great Britain is happy to announce that after negotiations with the Skuma Empire we have agreed to buy their fleet (2 schoomers) for the cost of 2IP. Our other 2IP shall be spent purchasing 2 armies, as the world is rapidly becoming a more tense place, and a stonger military force seems prudent.

IP is spent as follows:
2 buying Armies
2 buying the Skuma Fleet (sent to the Skuma Empire)

Our navies will move as follows:

Schoomers:
HMS Prophet Remains on patrol in the north atlantic
HMS Sir Francis Drake Sets sail for the waters around greenland, from England
HMS King Edward I and HMS Invisible sail to the channel, from the Baltic
HMS Cunning and HMS Negotiator sail south along the African coast, from the Coast of the Skuma Empire

Our Armies shall act as follows:
2 invade South Africa, Via the Former Skuma Fleet
2 Invade Greenland/Iceland, via the HMS Sir Francis Drake

Current British Agreements are as follows:
Trade Agreement:
Australia
India
Sweden
France
America

The British Empire Is Doing very Well.
