ok France, no problem...... i understand, you need an alternate path to beat up on Austria..........yes, thats it. Italy is quite bad you know, the peasants have a real anti French thing, and corruption would be very bad for you....but other European ppls love a good French occupation! 
Our Nation will be avenged.......

What does Austria have to do with this?? As I understand it, Milan was under British rule, and since I am in a locked war with the British, I take British city. I'll deal with the corruption on its on terms.

One is allowed to stir up trouble in the name of good humour, no?

Lost one Elite MOW attacking French troop convoy near Bologne, however the next MOW attacked, sunk the French escorting frigate and produced a Enslaved MOW, which in turn sunk/captured the Transport and produced another enslaved MOW
= net gain 1 MOW
This naval battle had another good outcome.... Famous orators declared it a Golden age for our Fine Empire!
IN other news..... a privately owned 'adventure' ship limped back toward its adopted homeland.... i assume it may have been in the wars???
Milan will be sorely missed, but the Sinking of an invasion force(???) is cause for celebration.

We are happy to be peacefully trading with many nations and do not wish to be drawn into the troubled times in other parts of Europe. Furthermore, as a dissinterested party we offer our help in negotiating peace should any nation require it.

Fair enough, guess I was taking it too seriously.
War status on my turn:
As my meager fleet of frigates sink, my army of cavalry attack British cavalry standing across the river near Amsterdam. We won and upgraded to Elite Cavalry. Moved on and attacked Musketman stationed at Amsterdam and won that battle as well. The French are determined to take Amsterdam which once belonged to our beloved brethren, the Dutch!
ALSO, have a couple of questions:
1) What do we have to report? For example, do we have to report unit upgrades after a battle (as I did above)? Do we have to report entering/leaving a Golden Age (as King James did)?
2) I noticed France (me) is the only civ that is a Republic in this mod. Has anyone played this mod and know if Monarchy is an option for the French (in case I wanted to go that route)?
Mainly reports need to cover units killed, units lost, units captured and cities captured against human players as they can't see the results. I supose promotion to elite and hero production are worth reporting. Personaly I don't see a need to report action against an AI opponent as the other players wouldn't see them anyway.
You can report as much beyond that as you like. For example you might want to report a victory over the AI but not a failed attack for the propoganda value
Put the fear of God into your opponents
You have monarchy showing in the tech tree so you should be able to choose it if you want. Though I wouldnt like to be non-productive for a few turns myself. I don't think war-weariness is such an issue in this scenario. But I might be wrong.

I usually like to report extra tidbits that i believe may have an effect

MOW attacked French frigate just off Rome, sinking it after a hard battle, and producing another MOW... this conscripted unit then travelled north to deal with another French Frigate, but its previously French crew didn't have the qualities that make British sailors great, and they were defeated by what ended up as a very holed up Frenchy!
The Battle for Amsterdam raged on.... Fresh troops had arrived just prior to the french assault, and gave the local commander some much needed attacking strength. Lost 1 normal Cav and 3 Householders smacking the French army, which only survives with 3 bars to its name..... the final Household cav attack, which was mean't to finish this army off.... instead found Voltigiers, and was forced to retreat after taking 3 bars of damage.... Those Infantry squares can be real buggers!
As always, the British remain watchful..... and extend the hand of friendship to any other Nation who feels the bite of French Steel.

It's more fun to make a bit of a story out of it and enter into the spirit of things. I have merely outlined things that must be reported. You can report whatever you like above that, without giving away too much information to your enemies and friends (in case they turn out to be enemies) of course.

War update:
War rages on for Amsterdam, canon injuring a unit before 2 voltiguers go in. although injuring british units, both voltiguers are casualties of war. My army of cavalry decides to return to nearest city for recon. We live to fight another day!

News from the Kings Palace...
The British Navy continues to hammer its French foe..... 4 French Frigates destroyed near Amsterdam, 2 of them becoming British MOW....
And the damaged MOW that fought off Rome, sallied North towards Florence to sink that badly holed up Frigate i mentioned last time.
The British People Celebrate this victory, coupled with the denial of Amsterdam to the French.....
A small force remained just south of this great city, and the Local Cannon Battery was unable to hit these defiant befoulers of Sovereign soil....
The British now prepare for the return of the French Army....
