First time I ever converted. I'm a fairly devout Catholic IRL so I'm a bit pained.

That's funny, I'm a leftard liberal irl but in games I enjoy playing exploitative industrialists.

I am a Democratic Socialist, but in game i like the be the Fascist TYRANT.

I'd like to join, still possible?

Download a save, try to find a playable nation. In Europe Emperor Bavaria left by buttdevastated Sulimo is probably the only good pick left. Other than that we have Algiers, Mamluks and other continents.

But yes, it is possible. You can also try to sub absent players, we always lack someone. To see if MP is your deal.

Austria and Sweden already went Protestant, and those are two big ones (especially since Sweden is close to forming Scandanavia).

Yes and on the other side you have: France, Scotland, Aragon, Potatoland, Hungary, Portugal and Utrecht. Very balanced indeed.
And btw I'm not close to forming Scandinavia at all. I need 30 years more to get a core on Denmark's capital and more than 50 for Norway's.

With that said we would like to encourage our frog eating brethren to convert to the one true faith. The boost in taxation and production would imensly help their failing economy.

Yes and if French converts then it will be only me and Poland that are big enough to maybe go head to head with any one of your nations.

Poland is Eastern so that kind of only leaves me.

Every one else is small. Yes they can fight, but they do not have the power to be the main push.
Hell neither do i before some 100 years in the future.
Right now Austria is TO Far ahead in tech that we have little to no chance to beat his troops with out gobbling them up 3-1 and even then it would be pure luck.

The French Economy is in ruins and he will most likely be forced to turn to Protestant and then it will be ME vs the entire world.

Mighty Utrecht rises again! I control the Papacy (probably for the rest of time) and have expanded beyond my previous borders. I can field a decent sized army and will soon form the Netherlands!

Edit: In the spirit of others, a mini AAR.

At the beginning, I set my sights on eliminating the Excommunicated Brabant, as they have been a thorn in my side since I started. I declared war on them, which brought others in as well... My 5 shock general and good army tech made them regret that decision. I annexed Brabant (three rich provinces) and Oldenburg, and Vassalized Bremen. Then, I assisted the English in a war against the Holy Roman Emperor... Scotland, and took Antwerp, which they had taken from the Flemish. This extended my borders quite a bit, but left me with a high infamy score and a yearly infamy increase due to unlawful imperial territory. To remedy this, I set out to force convert some protestant minors, including some electors, which I had a mission for. Doing good works for God did not go unnoticed by the pope, and eventually I came to have a virtual monopoly on the Papal Controller, with a pretty consistent 20% chance for next cardinal. I now control between 5-6 cardinals. As a theocracy, I'm not eligible to be the Holy Roman Emperor, but when I form the Netherlands, I believe the government may change, at which time, I shall bring Catholicism back into prominence... WITH THE SWORD!

Polish mini AAR:

This game was a game of rapid expansion and consolidation, with focus on Germany. I have successfully annexed Hansa, Brandenburg, Pommerania and Mecklenburg forming a strong North German presence. I now border Utrecht in the west and Sweden near Denmark, another two player controlled nations. However our relations are good and those borders should be considered as safe.

On the home front I managed to develop some more infrastructure, mainly temples, constables and workshops, but its still a long way till I have all necessary buildings. But it was a horrible session for my stability, now its at -2 with no sign of increase. Stab costs are extreme, and overextension penalty will continue to plague me for years and years to come. Also will rebellions and religious turmoil.

I am still unable to westernize due to shitty sliders and monarchs (now I also have 14 years to wait for my regency to end). Thus I have fallen in all techs other than land, where I managed to catch up to the rest of western Europe. I am 6 techs behind in government, 10 in naval, 8 in production and trade. A horrible, horrible position.

Overall I need to focus on bringing my nation back on its feet and on finally dissolving the HRE - it cost me way too much stability otherwise.

Because we patched the game we lost some hours of game time so i could not do a lot.

I went Counter reformation because the dam Protestants where pissing me off.

I'll prolly be back on sunday, thinking about rolling Manchu. Will download the save to see if the Bavarian situation is worth salvaging, if not I'm off to the east. Bavaria will have its revenge. :salute:

Bavaria went Protestant, but it did absorb some minors. It's not in the running for HRE for now. Plus, I don't know how I feel about a whiner rejoining the game.

I did not whine, I simply shut my mouth and ragequit. There's a difference. I also gave you all leave to do with AI-Bavaria what you wanted.

I was in a war with Aragon, France, Austria, Utrecht, Denmark and I believe Potato. 5 players vs. 1, is not something I'd really call all that fair, but I admit I lost and allowed AI Bavaria to suffer the consequences for my incompetence.

You lost a war... and that happens. You definitely weren't irrevocably neutered... there was just an end to the stranglehold on the HRE that we wanted to end, which I believe was mentioned. You butthurt ragequit, which is pretty fucking lame. Just saying.

My butthole was indeed clenched in anger. Let's see what was taken from me.
1) France annexed flanders, a non-vassal ally. i.e. 3-4 provinces from my sphere of influence removed.
2)All my elector vassals were released.
3) The palatinate and Ansbach were released, pretty much splitting the amount of provinces I had in half. I had like 9 under direct control (5 after the war), and a shitload of vassals. (shitload-6 after the war)

Now, as a fucking HRE minor nation, I had gained quite a lot in 80 years, and after the war I lost roughly 50 years worth of effort. I was not great enough to get half-neutered by the greatest coalition the world had ever seen up till that point. France alone would probably have been enough, but at least it'd have been a somewhat fair fight.

But sure, if you won't allow me to rejoin I won't complain, can any other players chime in to say if they (don't) want me back?

I don't care if you rejoin, just don't be a bitch if you brag about how powerful you are and then get ganged up on again.

I have nothing against Sulimo and his return. But he reap what he sow.

And btw Bavaria lost to France, Austria and Aragon, I wasn't a part of the war. Denmark peaced out for me without me doing anything.

Anyway Bavaria is in good shape and has just humiliated Austria (no idea how...). But HRE has shrunk greatly meanwhile...
