Some Nesers on nes.chat pointed out the Order has 80 companies and that I should fear them. I disagree somewhat because I am the far* more Catholic (and legitimate) part of Lithuania and a friend of Denmark. Is this view correct Perfectionist, or does the Order not care about which Lithuania is more Christian and just want to profit from the civil war, religion and Denmark be damned? I'm also assuming my relationship with Denmark is good, and that despite the tension the Order's relationship with Denmark is good too?
Also, how do they afford keeping up 80 companies on their relatively small budget (especially with most of them being well-armed and trained and 'comparatively few' being crappy levies? I understand being paid slightly less cause they're religious, but that doesn't seem to make up the huge different... or are soldiers actually fairly cheap on upkeep?
Not that I mind IC, I think I might be able to make friends. : )
**editedit: Turns out the Order and Grand Duke's Lithuania are at peace. ^^
edit: *Perfectionist told me there's no faction stat for pagans in the illeg- Prince's Lithuania coz' it doesn't distinguish them sufficiently from other southeastern Lithuanians.
). At this point, do I take control of an NPC nation or create my own?
