Kingdom of Zimbabwe pl0xSorry that fell apart in 1450.
Under the leadership and guidance of the Zulu Kingdom, under Windbusche.
Added both of you.
However, I forgot to add, you may sign up for two nations if you wish.
Holy Roman Empire? Wasn't the electorate Austrian at this time anyway?
Put Wind and I down for the Papal States. Wind'll handle the religious side, converting people to Catholicism and such.If you declare a crusade, I will be the first one to gather my armies and march against the infidels.
Put Wind and I down for the Papal States. Wind'll handle the religious side, converting people to Catholicism and such.A dual leadership? I've never heard of such a thing. But if you can make it work go ahead.
Land! and Power!The smallest country in those two terms is the Kingdom of Sweden, I believe. There is the Dutch Republic, as well. But it's already taken.
True. But that's just to start.
Edit: Also, crusades would go badly. If Windbusche hated someone he could just have the whole world go apeshit on them.
Can I get Haiti? Freed slaves running it at the time ;D
I will consider your proposal of smaller "sub nations" but there would be consequences to disobeying the orders of the Kaiser.Oh of course there would be. As well as perks of being the Kaiser. For instance; the Kaiser could receive a discount on creating units; to simulate them calling forth men from all-across the Empire, instead of just Austria/their province, like other states. Though the Kaiser should also be obligated to help protect those states under his control in the event they are attacked by a threat from outside the Empire.
But again, for the whole sub-nations/minor nations thing, I'd really like to fill up all of the spaces we have first, then we could talk about it.
Sweden pl0x?I AM SWEDEN!
Sweden pl0x?I AM SWEDEN!
multiple people can sign up for the same nation!
You can only choose Spain, please refrain from choosing Reserve nations.
Edit: If you lose your roll for Spain you can always pick Sicily anyway.
It's a play-by-forum game.Am. My. Fucking. God.

I'm not telling you not to ask questions. I'm asking you to read the thread to see if you're questions were answered. It isn't a very long thread.I know that, I just do not have anymore questions.
They aren't going to be co-kings. Only one will be. It's done by a roll, and whoever loses gets one of the Reserve nations.And if you decided to implement my HRE idea, then there'll be no shortage of reserve nations. xD
The Ottoman Empire and Denmark-Norway correct?
I want to be with Meneboo in Prussia. kthxbai
Edit: no co-kings? blasphemy! Choosing new nation...
Polish-Lithuania Commonwealth pl0x

I demand justice! Allow me to rule Switzerland!Amen sista!
Odysseus, if I may say so, it may best to get people in the game in the first place. Rather than trying to fit them into the nations on the list. Right now, you and I are some of the only people here that have played BoP over on the TW forum. So maybe giving people a bit more freedom in nation choosing would be a good thing. Get 'em hooked easier, you know?
As for you people in question: that's not a complete excuse for you. It's his game and his rules (you should try reading them sometime :P ).
But anyways; that's just my two cents.
...
Lend the Pope some cash, Switzerland?
Good! Make sure we have an ample supply of Guardsmen, as Catholicism shall be brought to the Ottomans, whether they like it or not!...
Lend the Pope some cash, Switzerland?
Certainly! And the Swiss Guard is ready to serve for His Holiness!
Player count: 14
Goal: 16
I do wonder, why can't we pick any nation that was around?
Personally I would have liked being Bavaria.
Might I suggest an idea for the HRE?
It can be made-up of several people each playing the role of one of the specific nations comprising the HRE. For example, one player is Bavaria, another Austria, another-one is Hesse, ect. With the player who controls Austria also the leader of the HRE as a whole. Though his powers are somewhat limited. And once (assuming it happens) the HRE is dissolved, the individual states become their own (full) nations.
If you do accept this idea (or something similar) I would like to apply for;
Bavaria
or
Lippe-Detmold
If not;
The Holy Roman Empire
or
the UK
WEll, if you need players, Riddles could have JapanI'm pretty sure this is intended to just be Europe and the Americas (maybe with Africa).
Dammit König!Quick draw König, they call me.

Ok fine, everyone can be whoever they want but there's only one slot left.
If you're a vassal nation (like a state within the Holy Roman Empire) you must pay tax to them and follow the orders of the Empire's leader. If you fail to comply you'll lose half of your armed forces and a quarter of your income and you'll make an enemy of the Kaiser.

Wouldn't it be up to the Emperors themselves as to what would happen to vassals of theirs if they don't pay or do what they assign their vassal to pay or do? Just a thought.
So I can be Tibet then?(Assuming you're being serious)
No one for primary Asian powers? I'm sad and disappointed. :'(
Audiate i'm dissapointed my 'Merica isn't on that map :(
Guys, stop it. Odysseus did quite a lot of work to make all this, and you are all here, ruining it like a bunch of 8-year-olds. Even I think that's disrespectful.
Stop joking about asian or african nations and get a little bit serious.
Could I still join?
Could I still join?
We haven't started yet because we've been waiting for one more person to join. So please, do join! ;D
We'll have to wait for the Americas to be done, but it's been tricky to do, given it was just easier to do Eurasia, because I had a variation of that map already available.
So I can be Tibet then?Tibet wasn't even independant at this point. If you don't know that I know you aren't serious.

Blame Wind, he's the Pope.Also, the Papal State does not have the right to call a crusade for obvious reasons.It's a power that you've already abused.
But the Shogun was the leader, and it wasn't called the "Empire of Japan" until the Boshin War.No, that's when the Shogunate was founded.
No, the Shogunate was created in the 8th century CE and existed alongside the Empire. Japan has had an emperor uninterrupted since antiquity.

It was called the Tokugawa Shogunate. Logic matters little.
We should get negotiations going... I'm up for steam chats and pm's. Remember the Netherlands has a strong navy and a good defensive position!You are occupied by the french in 1794 though. :P
But in 1794 there was a French army invading the Netherlands, was there not?According to the website of the Dutch Defensive institute/ministry, The Republic of the Seven-united-provinces was attacked and completely taken over by the french in 1795 but they mention that the invasion had already started for a good part in 1794. Since the 4th Dutch-English war didn't go quite well, the Dutch couldn't put up much resistance and the Stadtholder thus fled to the UK and many of the colonies were captured by the British. Same goes for the navy really, half surrendered to France the other half deserted to the UK.
So when/how exactly will we start? These talks are boring.

The King of Spain sends an emissary to the Catholic Kingdom of France saying:We have not started yet. But when we do, I'll be glad to have an ally like the Kingdom of Spain to fight together against the heretics and any other threat to our Commonwealth.

Nobody wants to ally with Spain. France and Portugal will roll you over after a while! >:(Of course I will.
Unless you make some donations to the Catholic Church to prevent that...

I want to know the power at the beginning of the game. The fleets, armies, fortresses, etc. That's when the real negationons can begin.True.
Yes, please do diplomacy in PMs. As for switching countries I'm not going to allow that as I want to get this game going as soon as possible.What other countries are Muslim? I think I'm the only one...
Does it really matter?Just lonely
The question is : Why should we buy swiss guards instead of our own elite soldiers?Because they're the elite of the elite.
Have you talked this over with the hosts?
This is going to be interesting, for sure.Fair enough, I'm sure Windbusche will be able to stretch out to that, for a while.
By the way, I might as well put this out there:
Prices for Swiss GuardSpoilerFunding Bundle (not accepted after a certain point)+ You have to pay 100 credits less
- 200 credits
- 2 weapons
- You have to supply the weapons yourself (until Switzerland can manufacture them fast enough itself)
Normal Price+ You do not have to manufacture weapons, we'll do it for you!
- 400 credits
- 0 weapons
- You'll have to pay 100 extra credits
Special offers for returning customers
Funding Bundle: Reduced price of Normal Price by 20 credits (first purchase only; doesn't apply to Funding Bundle price)
Normal Price: Reduced price of Normal Price by 10 credits (for each purchase; after 4 price reductions, cost resets to original price w/ Funding Bundle reduction, if present)[close]
This may sound stupid, but do we get a detailed game-rules-and-how-it-works-thread before starting, or is there one already?+1 not everyone has played this (like me ::) )
Yes, more details on how to play are coming though it will take some time.
Check this to see other games: http://forums.taleworlds.com/index.php/topic,240041.0.html
Notice how long the games take and how much preparation time is required, so please be patient.
In addition to that, I will disclose some of my own turn orders and reports that I have made and received in the past of a variety of BoPs. Though you have to keep in mind that every BoP is different, and that things therefor cannot be just copied nor are the same things guaranteed to work. It will probably give you an insight though.
So, what do you get out of it?
So? In 1812 Russia was invaded. Doesn't mean it's occupied.

There's an important difference between the 1794 invasion of the Netherlands and the 1812 invasion of Russia.

That's a downright fucked-up lie. I've talked to you several times about it, you've either responded with some sort of vague as fuck Japanese proverb of an answer, or more often, you hadn't responded to me at all. Regardless, whenever you did bother to answer, I got the idea it was allowed.

Concerning Popcorn Posting & Image Macros
Recently I have noticed a troubling trend of our community members. Certain members have decided to further instigate forum arguments by posting inane image macros. This will no longer be tolerated, and posts that appear to be doing so will be removed and the user warned. They serve no purpose beyond instigating further conflict between forum members, when all we wish to see is conflict resolution.
So, to be clear, posting images like the following:Spoiler(https://www.fsegames.eu/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.reactiongifs.com%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2011%2F05%2FMichealJacksonPopcorn.gif&hash=1e6c0ddd7df7702df807fd5a105a3710b213e33f)[close]Spoiler(https://www.fsegames.eu/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.bobcesca.com%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2012%2F01%2FPopcorn-Stephen-Colbert.gif&hash=131a21645edd5d75d64f17c6d1a4ddc9953cb7b3)[close]Spoiler(https://www.fsegames.eu/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2F25.media.tumblr.com%2Ftumblr_m5xxns4dhC1qjemo2o1_250.gif&hash=1e0cc2e89e7c9dc6105a9fe06d27b4d2d4806b1e)[close]

Could the Netherlands consist of some more states? For example, the Hollands as one province? Being behind the Waterlinie and all.
I totally agree.Could the Netherlands consist of some more states? For example, the Hollands as one province? Being behind the Waterlinie and all.
No, all regions should be as big as they were worth, for example russia has got big Regions and Italy has got pretty much, why is also because there were so many minor states.
I'm not so concerned about the details (such as exact region borders) But the whole world needs to be included. I'm not forcing anyone to make a map, but if it's going to be included it needs to cover the whole world.
I've explained this too many times before. My answer stands.
