Originally posted by rwingettExcept for the overrunning of the torpid Byzantine Empire, a rather slow season. The mighty Venetian Navy sank another enemy fleet (this time Arles'đ 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!

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.....

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?
Originally posted by Bosse de NageYou must both offer in the same turn.

Originally posted by Bosse de NageIt 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.
What happened to you in Poitou?

Originally posted by buffalobillIt 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.
Originally posted by Bosse de NageExactly. 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?
Originally posted by StarrmanShips 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.
