Britain finds the ottoman account of events interesting, but also warns other nations that they should not consider them too factual

1 Ottoman elite Inf destroyed, and 3 Frigates were also destroyed by some Men 'o War refitting in S Italy!
Some British artillery also fired a few rounds at the Ottoman push for a city.....

The Spaniards push hard too, but they will soon lose a city due their inferior troops..... even if they are grouped in hordes!!!

Well the British annialated our invasion force for the loss of a cavalry unit outside the city Sultan Hawklord blames the incompitence of the invasion commander. Should he return we will have his head
The remnants of our cavalry pillaged roads cos they're not much good at anything else.

@ Austria. It's too late now.

Few, these British units are tough. I don't think the Ottomans have any troops good enough to beat them I'll need loads of cannons to make a dint in them. Curse the other Western civs for drawing us into this war.

King Carlos of Spain has insulted me. Therefore, I have re-declared war and started moving in on his cities already.

 

[James I]

The foul occupation of Italy has ended...... The last remnants of the Ottoman invasion force have been hunted down, and the rebuilding process has begun! (a few ottoman cav killed without loss)

James I orders celebrations, and promotions............ but what is this?????

A very late Austrian Transport is also sunk.

Some men were lost to the Spaniards......but they came off worse for it!!!!

Overall, very happy couple of turns for Britain

 

[Hawklord]

Who's that bow legged bloke with the funny boots? Damn these useless turkish troops, too much time lazing about th barracks with their hookah pipes. I've put our other troops on exercises to get them fit.

An Austrian ship of the line was sent to the murky depths.......

But in the west, terrible news- Gibraltar is no more...... a sneaky spainish stack of death annihilated the modest garrison!!!!!!! Vengance shall be swift!

and in the north east.... strange events, as borders shift without war......

Britain takes stock of its enemies this turn.... and wonders what price friendship????

 

[Hawklord]

We are still licking our wounds after the defeat in Italy.

Prussia has come under French wing for protection (aka MPP). I assume y'all will leave them alone. However, should a mysterious accident befall them or a stray bullet find its way to them, then I'm going to blame some of the people in this forum.

 

[James I]

Since you own half of prussia anyway Daufoi, i guess it was a natural progression!

King S- It takes time for news to travel between St Petersburg and Old London town!

An Austrian Invasion force has entered Northern Italy (seemingly through French Milan). The British garrison has damaged it with cannon fire, and some green troops were also sallied out to damage the enemies offensive punch.... (2 redcoats lost)
The British remain confident.

Just trying to protect my investment James!

 

[Hawklord]

Rebuilding our army after the resounding defeat in Italy. We have sacked the officers and promoted better men. Hopefully they will at least have an effect now. Though the effectiveness of our troops leaves a lot to be desired.

Little skirmish at Florence no result for either side.

God speed Hawklord with your rebuild.

France, one of you protectorate’s Calvary has parked himself deep in my territory. How long must I tolerate this before I can take action?
