Update 35 Zygmunt Piast - Zygmunt Augustus Russanicus Cumanicus Maximus. Regnus Potatorum-Lithuanorum Imperator Piast - That's his title now.
Song about how fucking awesome poles are at fighting mongols and ruthenians. And it have lyrics fragment that says "O muzo kartoflana" ("Oh, potato muse") so poland=potato is not something Codex came up with. There is also fragment about mine fields but whatever (it's about 17 century war).
Ok, this is ridiculous. Golden Horde is dead (again) and Ill-Khanate is down to 3 provinces so we can't expect them to be any threat to us. I decided that we will keep expanding until we cant expand no more. Only question is, expand where? There are still pagan cumans in the east so it seems like best direction, so we will expand there. I also won't hestitate to fight western catholics if we get some claims on them.
Commonwealth must grow, we shall declare war on Tribe of Azov and take their land!
First let's bring some troops there.I keep forgeting that in CK1 you can declare war while you have your troops raised (you can't do that in CK2).
Now we declare war on vassal of Azov.
Battle begins and our son is born. If your son is born during battle he will become great warrior in the future, that's rule I just made up.
Forces of Pronsk are beaten and we siege their shit. Also, in true Commonwealth fashion, we are not paying our troops at all. Hopefully our army won't disband because of this.
We finished the siege and now we have to deal with Azov.
Our army if victorious again (even though it's not getting paid at all)
We forced high-chief od Azov to give Kolomna to our sister (she conquered it, brave little thing) and pay us tribute. Then we granted Prońsk to some Małowuj guy who is disloyal as fuck but it's nothing money can't change.
There are still some pagans left. LET'S KILL THEM
Zygmunt Augustus Cumanicus, Russanicus Maximus, Regnus Potatorum-Lithuanorum Imperator Piast engaged chief of Torzhok (and we killed the bastard in battle!)
Then we granted Torzhok to count of Pskov.
Now our reputation is terrible but Zygmunt Augustus Cumanicus, Russanicus Maximus, Regnus Potatorum-Lithuanorum Imperator Piast run out of fucks to give.
Our marshall murdered someone and we had to banish him.
And then count of Livs declared war on Sweden. Well, we have to defend him because our goal is to gain vassals not to lose them.
Crap, Pope forced us to sign peace with worst scandinavians (we couldn't refuse, just look at Zygmunt's piety). But Livs is still at war with Sweden (we have claims on Livs so Swedes better not fucking take it).
Let's vent our frustration on some russians.
Are you fucking kidding me?! How the hell 1 thousand guys captured us when we were leading fucking 12 thousands men? We had to pay 5000 tribute.
But we conquered Vyazma and gave it to count of Smoleńsk.
Now our reputation is even worse but it doesn't matter, POTATO MUST GROW.
