Oops, I can't support that many armies. Instead, my income will be split:
25 towards 5 armies
Rest towards Army tech.

Amended map below.

 

[Arakhor]

Does being Expansionist actually serve any purpose now that almost all the provinces are taken up?

 

[Aiolos]

Mad, that will cost you 10 gold and a trade agreement. Once again, I offer trade to EVERYONE. Come on, I have the money

 

[civplayah]

Again, put it all into economy tech.

I'll buy one army to place in every border province with Albania and put the rest in Military and Civic research.

 

[Aiolos]

Everything into the Economy this time.

Rescind this order or I'm burning down Vienna.

might i remind you that Albania defeating hamburg is not in our best interests? you will withdraw that threat, or ill be forced to introduce tensions again.

Spaniard, get your perro faldero to take the troops of my border or I'll be forced to act in self-defense to Austrian aggression.

what does that mean? anyway, i have no control over austria's military.

 

[Sonereal]

Then you see our problem. Our northern neighbor is growing increasingly hostile and is planning an invasion of Albania by stationing troops on the border. As such, any strike we may or may not perform against Austria will be a pre-emptive strike to prevent the war from entering our lands and to contain Austrian aggression. We would rather not do this but Austria has left us little choice.

...do you have allies? Austria is more than twice as powerful as you are. even a sneak attack will lead to failure.

anyway, you did antagonize a few nations, i am forgiving, but they may not be. be careful of what you do.

Spain will watch Austria, and if we feel that the CB isn't valid enough (or having no CB) Spain may take measures to end the war.

Slavic Union, Ottoman Empire.

 

[Mathalamus]

Slavic Union, Ottoman Empire.

hm, since they seem to be competent, im assured that youll be able to keep Istanbul from burning down. hopefully.

Spain will stay out of it, unless Austria has no valid CB. if you attack preemptively, we'll just watch. (as you will have a CB)

 

[Tani Coyote]

Current Alliance Lineup is:

Triple Alliance - Albania, Slavia, Ottoman Empire (includes Echidna Empire)
Triple Entente - Austria, Scandinavia/Kalmar, United Empire

Middleman - Salt Empire; it has guaranteed all its trading partners, so whoever attacks first will have to risk war with them.

The Scandinavian King also has a point to make:

-Is Albania planning to attack Austria, given that it has massed far more troops on the border than Austria has, even with these new expenditures...?
