My bad. I'll try to correct that in the future.
EQ: I will try to post a save for you but there is a slight problem. I am playing an older version of the Govern and Make War mod, not sure what version. I have been unsuccessful in upgrading to newer versions because of some changes that I made and can not recall. So in short, you may not be able to load it.

The Indian armies under the brilliant leadership of Generals Hamlet, Civanator and Das are solidifing their holdings in the newly named English Province. All three military leaders were building up their forces for a future invasion of Italia. The Roman Menance on the seas must be cleansed.
Back in Delhi, Admirals Fish and EQ were called to the Minister's office. Both men approached with awe as they took in all the great works of Indian Art, some some fine pieces of former English works, that lined the hallways of the Imperial Palace. They enter Minister Bangalore's office and quickly take their seats.
On the wall behind Bangalore's desk is a large map of the Italian Straights, that body of water that seperates India and Italia. The two seamen notice the many red pins insert in the waterways, each marking the latest reports of Roman ships (all information being weeks old). Both men also notice the lack of blue pins, signifying Indian ships.
"Gentelmen, welcome. I am presenting you with a great task. Rid these waters of Roman shipping. The Straights belong to Indian and Rome refuses to acknowledge. But keep this in mind... We are not ready for war. Dismissed."
The two men return to their port cities and begin the rapid construction of a Privateer Navy. In the following months, the shipyards along the entire southern coast are busy building the ships that will take Rome out of Indian waters. In other shipyards, galleys are being constructed at the orders of the Generals in order to carry the glorious armies to Italia.
Finally, with a fleet of Privateers, Admirals EQ and Fish transfer their command flags from their respected Frigates and onto the new ships, the Destiny and the Harpoon . Under the command of these two great sea captains, the Indian 'Navy' roams into the Straights and starts sinking all non-Indian shipping.
EQ and Eric the Fish are silently praised throughout India as the numbers of Roman ships seen on the waters begins to decline. The long planned invastion of Italia is set to begin.

Nope. Been busy. first the inlaws, then a trip to my sisters place in Maine, now switching jobs, taking part in Das' Never Ending Story. Lots of work. Have an update, just need to write it.

Refresher, Admirals EQ and Fish have cleansed the Indian waters of Roman Shipping. General Das has set sail from Exter in the Bay of England with an plethera (always liked that word ) of ships and troops and is currently sailing towards Italia and the port city of Veii (i think need to check my notes)
__
Das has landed, and the results are forthcoming - tomorrow.

General Das exits his field tent and looks down on the smoking ruins of the Roman city of Veii. He looks out around the fields and sees Roman troops digging graves for the thousands that have died in the past few days. Of course, those Roman men are being guarded by his victorious Indian Army. Unlike past victories, Das does not smile as he thinks back on this latest battle. Too many Indian men have died in the past few days, and for what. General Das and his army has been decimated. It will take at least a year to muster the same numbers that he had prior to the Battle of Veii. He shakes his head as he heads back into his tent to continue to write the letters to the families of his lost men, this is the one task that the General despises but he refuses to delegate this task to his subordinates. These men died under his command and the least he could do, was to personally see to it that the families are told of the events.

Dear Ms. Patel.
I write to inform you of you husbands valor in the early stages of our glorious victory here at Veii. Sanji was commanding one of the first Infantry Regiments to land in Italia. As our army was disembarking, the evil Roman legions attacked our position. Sanjis regiment was in the direct line of the Roman advance and he rallied his men to save the army. In fierce hand to hand combat, Sanji was killed. He was stabbed in the back by a Roman bayonet. He refused medical attention until all his men were taken care of first. I know that Sanjis passing is a great personal loss to you, but his loss is also felt deeply to the men under his command.
General Das, Commander of Indias forces in Italia.

Dear Ms. Jumanti.
Your son Cristof was instrumental in breaching the defenses of Veii. In previous assaults, the 2nd and 3rd calvary Division rushed the Roman defenders. In the first two assaults, all the calvary officers were killed and Sargent Cristof took command and led the combined armies on one last charge into the city. The Roman regiments fell under the weight of this combined attack. As Cristof ordered his men back, to make room for the 6th Calvary, he knocked from his horse. We are unsure how Cristof died but do know that he was found 200 yards from his dead horse. His weapons were empty and his sword wet with Italian blood. The Romans may be savage fighters but they respect bravery, even among their enemies. Cristofs body was found at the side of a building with his arms across his chest and his sword ceremoniously at his side. A placard with the Italian word for valor was found at his feet.
General Das, Commander of Indias forces in Italia.

General Das closed his stationary as tears begin to fill his eyes. His aide walks into the command tent. "General, I have the butchers bill here."
"What is it?"
"Of the 8 Infantry Regiments, 3 are at full strength and 4 are totally decimated. The 5th Infantry may be raised to half strength by tomorrow. We are reassigning the survivors from those other units to the 5th."
"What of our offensive capabilities? What of the Calvary?"
"The 6th Calvary is at about 90%. The 2nd and 3rd are about 75% if you combine the two. With reinforcements, the 1st and 9th can be rebuilt. The other..."
"I understand. So we are basically out of the fight for some time."
"Yes sir. Our 4 artillery batteries were unscathed. If need be, we can transfer them to General Hamlet or Civanator when they land."
"We will see. What of the Roman casualties?"
"In the counter attack at the beach head, the Romans lost 3 Calvary detachments. 3 Rifles and 2 Infantry Regiments perished in the city itself. Unsure of the counterattacks once we took Veii. We do know that the Roman Army has been severely crippled and the other two Generals should have an easier time."
"I hope they appreciate it. So, I guess we are now the peace keepers here. Make sure that the harbor is rebuilt and those temples are established. We must keep Veii if the invasion of Italia will continue."
"Yes sir!"

General Civanator looked out at his transports as they sailed out of the Bay of England towards Italia and the Roman port city of Venice. General Das should have landed at Veii already, thought Civanator. Will the Romans fight as hard as the English had? In a few more days, we will land and know the answer.
Civantator lands his armies in the hills overlooking Venice and quickly begins preparing for his assault. A few Roman knights charge his position but are quickly thrown back by the Rifle regiments. Das must have done well since there is so little Roman opposition.
As the sun rises on a new day, Indian cannon batteries open fire and hide the new rays behind the smoke and haze of the discharge. After a few hours, the guns fall silent and the Romans know that the Indian calvary will soon be pouring down the hills. Civanator does not make them wait long.
The 8th Calvary gets the call as the lead regiment and charges towards the city. As they reach rifle distance, they are met by the lead balls fired from the Roman Rifles but the charge continues. The 2nd and 3rd Regiments charge to support the attack and briefly, the three Regiments break into the city. As they return to the Indian lines, not a single Roman Rifle can be seen on the walls. Before the Romans can begin to fill in the gaps in their lines, the 4th Calvary, supported by the elite 1st, begin their assault. As those units return they report that the Roman Royal Spears of Venice is the last remaining line of defense. The 9th Calvary, the only regular unit in Civanators army charges. The modern weapons of the raw recruits overpower the ceremonial spears and Venice falls.
Civanator, ordered to create a pure Indian city in Italia orders the city burnt to the ground. Indian colonists, brought over with the army, land and New Delhi, the capital of Indian Italia is founded. Stage 2 of the Indian invasion is completed successfully. Civanator begins moving west towards Veii and General Dass depleted forces.
The Roman Empire has now lost 2 of their 4 port cities. EQ and Fish sail towards Rome and being the blockade of the port and of course, begin constant shelling. The Shelling will continue until Indian forces reach the capital. The other port city, Naples will soon be visited by General Hamlet.
