BABYJESUS. Yes you.the only way that I could possibly host a game is if I outsource literally everything
forum games are good for the community and we need more!idk if this is sarcastic or not but they actually are good. Not only are they fun, but they bring 20+ people to the forums. Heck the only reason I started to use the forums was because of forums games
i was being serious, I'm a huge fan of forum games and stuff but I've not really used FSE forums and didnt even realize this section was here until a few days ago.forum games are good for the community and we need more!idk if this is sarcastic or not but they actually are good.

Bravescot will return one day and the greatest BoP of all time can continue. Along with my dank money making schemes.tbh his BoP wasnt that good
Tbh it was the most unique imo and the only type I like playing. Personal preference/opinion. Yours differs from mine. :)besides enlightenment, have you played in a BoP?
I don't think that the amount of nations affects the game to be honest. As long as the most major nations are took, then the gamemaster could act as AI - although, having multiple gamemasters for another medieval BoP would be advisable. Many BoP's that I know of on different forums have had multiple gamemasters, resulting in faster updates and less stress on a gamemaster. And what do you mean about the Holy Roman Empire being too strong?i think in Enlightenment, bscot said the HRE had like 400,00 troops at their disposal (it's been along time but it was an outrageous number like that).

Interactions with AI aren't as fun as interacting with a player. and I don't think you will find a player for every important nation.
Multiple game masters are fine. But I don't think any of them should actually be playing in the game
that means bscot did the HRE completely wrong thenI don't think that the amount of nations affects the game to be honest.

The Holy Roman Empire isn't a unified state. That means all the states within the Holy Roman Empire's troops add up to 400,000. And I don't think all states in the HRE are allied so hey. Anyway, hopefully all Enlightenment states should be taken up such as Austria, France, etc. etc. before any other small ones like Friesland or Navarre.
Whenever I see a "New Post"-image on the forumgames subboard the hype gets real... then I notice that it is just someone else posting stuff.hey look Ted. This isn't an update
that means bscot did the HRE completely wrong thenI did it wrong deliberately. If I'd done it right the HRE right it would have been too much to handle and way too easy to manipulate into an unstoppable force.
I've played BoP's primarily outside of fsegames. Bravescot's HRE was done well because if it was done differently no progress could be made outside of it, other than France or whomever doing their best to lose the least amount of land should they be attacked. The only thing I wish was more of a limitation towards players in Enlightenment was religion; a lot of people were attacking each other for political/economical reasons, which was good, but other than that I saw wars starting namely between Catholics that just didn't make all too much sense for the time. If we ever managed to get to Protestantism, it would have been fine and made total sense, and the game could have expanded in that HRE would dissolve and evolve into more unified states. AoE was one of my favorite BoP's I've been in/watched because the potential for events shifting things in the game had huge potential. We didn't even get to the introduction of the Reformation, the use of dragoons and expansion of artillery and firearms, or any of that. Expanding on that, AoE allowed you to model your army in specific ways and command it in specific ways and take specific actions that aren't often seen in other BoP's, and it's a shame that wasn't something being taken more advantage of.teh only way you would get to that is if we started at that point (or we did like yea long updates which i dont think i would like)
I wasn't Norway. I was Denmark :(
The Swiss had a unlimited amount of money.
Attacking anyone in the HRE would be suicidal.
And doesn't a vote only occur when the current emperor dies? Or is that just EU4?

Sorry, Norway, my bad.
The Swiss were a very wealthy state in the period due to the high demand for Swiss Mercenaries, arms and expertise across the continent. Audiate had stretched his purse as far as it could handle and if he'd gone any further he's have begun to suffer. Unlike a lot of players who barrel head long into things he was very carefully taking one step after the other.
I should also be noted that his plans to turn Switzelrand into a center of trade would have taken years of not decades to implement.
Attacking and HRE member was a suicidal thing to due full stop. In game and in the period. There are plenty of ways to undermine their power like getting an HRE ally to attack another HRE member then joining in etc.
The Emperor was at fort going to be early but I saw that was a terrible idea so I planned on changing it to until the Emperor's death. I was not going to have it as a hereditary title or that would have been dull and way over powered.
If I remember correctly, I was to sell the land in Savoy to France for a hefty sum, excluding Marseilles, which I would own as a Swiss port. That explains why I made Savoy a part of France in the map, anyway. That was supposed to fund the expansion of the republic's infrastructure (canals and aqueducts, eventually better roads), which would in turn eventually secure Marseilles with a more advanced wall/forts later down the line.can we just wall off Switzerland and act like it isn't there?
If France had not made the sale or had swindled his way to pay very little, then yes. Switzerland would have found his coffers rather empty.If I remember correctly, I was to sell the land in Savoy to France for a hefty sum, excluding Marseilles, which I would own as a Swiss port.

Man, I love how people thought the Swiss was OP because I was a mod, and no one questioned the strength of any other mod's nations. Good ol' double standards out of jealousy. ::)well one mod was portuga; who i dont think did anything all game. And then there was France who lost like every battle
