Can't be Morocco. Their fleet couldn't have made it to the Adriatic. Must have been Aragon or Sicily I guess. Probably Sicily. Or did Morocco have a fleet in the GoT? I don't remember.
Good guess, if you want to call it that.

Maps are ready. It looks like Arles is gone again. So sad.
EDIT - I took Apulia - the back of Italy's calf. Crete and Smyrna (I think) are now Italian. Crete's Venetian, Smyrna Sicilian.
EDIT EDIT - I guess Apulia's more of an Achilles' Tendon region. Appropriate. The first strike on Italian soil is in their Achilles' Heel. Well, assuming Dalmatia was never part of Italy. It wasn't when they made their alliance so I guess it was not.
Originally posted by AThousandYoungAch! I didn't expect so much action over there. I should learn to pay attention.

Originally posted by AThousandYoungA Hungarian rabble invasion was destroyed in Bulgaria; the boys are still in possession of two previously owned Hungarian provinces. The Hungarian fleet found another spot to cower in under the protection of the Golden Horde, which has moved a lot of troops to the border of Hungary's ally, Poland. Curious. The Venetian Girl Scout troop in Frulia managed to take out two units of Polish villager conscripts. Good for you, gals!

On Turn 12, we finally lose a few realms; the Mad King was finally hunted down and apparently left to his fate at the hands of the Saxons. Looks like King Freddie struck back at our long time no1 and Denmark finally moved on and took Zeeland. The Norwegians seemed to have lost a lot of troops and so did the Saxons while the Danes didn't lose much; I'm wondering if the Vikings finally turned on their Saxon "ally".

Thanks for a good introduction to Medieval Diplomacy lads, next time I'll read the instruction manual. And not listen to Aragon. 😉
