Except for the overrunning of the torpid Byzantine Empire, a rather slow season. The mighty Venetian Navy sank another enemy fleet (this time Arles'😉 but it was mostly a consolidating turn for the Army of Italy. The Baverians got whupped sooooooooooooooo bad last season in Istria they wouldn't even take it when we withdrew from it! Thanks for the 6 gold, Duke!

This week's updated Power Ratings:


1. Saxony 1
2. Morocco 4
3. Lithuania 2
4. Hungary 3
5. France 6
6. Sicily 7
7. Golden Horde 5
8. Bavaria 13
9. Roum 10
10. Hafsids 8
11. Mamulukes 12
12. Castile 17
13. Teutonic Knights 18
14. Poland 9
15. Aragon 15
16. Venice 16
17. England 11
18. Norway 19
19. Denmark 21
20. Novgorod 20
21. Acquitaine 22
22. Byzantine 14
23. Arles 23

No moves from Poland or the Byzantines, while the FrenchBot continues to mass his troops to no purpose. Saxony has built a pretty good lead over no2; no10 is as close to no2 as Morocco is to the Saxons. Hmmmmmm.....

Just like in the movie "Pulp Fiction" when Mia exclaims "don't you just love it when you come back from the powder room and your food is all ready for you?", I came back from dinner and here in my mailbox is my new turn all ready for me.

What happened to you in Poitou?

Simpleton's question--I seem to be doing something wrong when it comes to accepting alliances. Basically an alliance was offered me but I didn't accept it--because I thought I had to accept it this turn.
What must I do to ensure that an alliance coming my way is accepted?

You must both offer in the same turn.

Byzantium is now bot controlled. I expect Poland to go the same route.

It looks like King Freddie sent his troops into Poitou, but also Aquitaine sent a whole bunch. Major losses on both sides but the English were outnumbered. But where, my dear King, are the reinforcements? Also, Aquitaine's rebuilding his navy.

Acquitaine's got a surprise coming if he thinks he's going to get out of this alive...

It looks like Aquitaine second-guessed us---I fell back to Narbonne to build up my forces while Fred was to land in strength. I fear that Aquitaine gambled on me not attacking Auvergne again and threw everything he had at the English.

As for the navy, Fred's ships are in a good position to take on Castilian troops.

Exactly. Can I board his ship from any of the provinces bordering it? Or do I have to leave from a harbour?

Also, does Freddie need to give me some sort of permission?

Ships can pick troops up from any province that has an adjacent sea-route--in your case, all but Pamplona. Fred just orders his ships to pick you up and drop you.
