Antonio Santa Anna Is the battle phase of my turn ok? It's my first time, I hope I've done you proud . What repercussions do I have to face from HRE now? Edit: I've clearly stated that I'm taking the region for protection and a better livelihood for the local populace. Edit2: My armies are fully prepared to defend the people and lands of Alsace-Lorraine. That may be your justification but the HRE probably won't accept your justification. As for paying them off, I highly doubt that Burgandy would posses enough wealth to be able to afford that.

Aragon begins raising taxes on the nobility in a way to create better infrastructure to support a fast army. The army is raised to 10000 men (OTT?) for purposes to be revealed and begin march to the west. OOC: is this a good setup as I have no clue how I'm supposed to do this? It's a good start, but plox post turns in the turn thread. oh I thought this was that thread

It was fine. The main repercussion I can think of right now is a swarm of angry HRE soldiers coming at you. But since you seem to have made A-L's population happy, I doubt you would have to deal with any rebellions anytime soon. Great! If HRE is pissed off then I can just pay them off. You could also swear fealty to the HRE. HRE gets more land and you keep Alsace. The emperor's sick too. You can participate in HRE intrigue and maybe become Emperor. That's going to be a glorious meme.

Could I roll a dice to see if the Pope would protect me? Antonio Santa Anna. Isn't the Emperor of HRE Barbarossa right now? Damn. How does the HRE intrigue work? Do I need to swear fealty to do that?

Well, if the Emperor dies (and he's sick according to GM rolls), HRE states elect a new Emperor. There's Genoa, Venice, Swabia, and possibly Burgundy. You're a perfect middle ground candidate. Venice won't vote for Genoa and Genoa won't vote for Venice. From there, you could go on a path to recreate old Francia.

You may elect to be simplistic as you wish. People should respect that, I'm sure. Anyway if you're worried about other people's turns... I think some people like to add tons of details based both on RL and their own actions for the sake of enjoyment. This is where many people like to see in RPs (as in actual role-playing writing). I personally am kinda more simple than some people's posts in the WW1 RP. european-war-4.boards.net/thread/5424/turns-all-countries-ww1-gameHmm, I was varying in degrees of simplicity or complexity. Anyway, yeah, you have freedom to be simpler.

Hmm, sounds good to me! Do I just state it in my turn that I'm joining HRE? Yes. I recommend that HRE expansions are fairly limited as in, needing a land border touching the HRE. We don't want some random nation in India joining the HRE! Lol Also... the nation should be Christian. (Currently Catholic only, I think... unless reformation strikes very early! Then we are having a Thirty Years War mixed in with the Crusades lol).

From there, you could go on a path to recreate old Francia. Or Swabia keeps the Emperor's spot, could happen... although, the lack of activity might mean he doesn't get any votes from other players. Are we doing it by Electors (which are NPCs atm) or just simply the players within the HRE?

The Angevins are willing to sponsor the entry of Burgundy into the HRE, by bribery if necessary.

Unless someone wants a smitten king, I'd advise you to get started on your 1181 turns.
