The Back Room
Lol, I remember the one where I was the Slavic Republic, and I had disbanded my military, and you were like 'I'm going to invade you and take Ukraine!' Tbh I had no defense force whatsoever, so I was just like 'Meh, whatever, bring it on :twisted: '. And you didn't attack because you thought I had something up my sleeve hahahaha -- As long as the rules are explained clearly, and something doesn't just pop up out of nowhere and suddenly my troops can't move because I never bought them new boots or something. I'll take whichever nation, doesn't really matter to me.

The population of Sri Lanka at the time would be around...2-3m or so.

Right. So, you're proposing to take over India with 1,000 men?
-
Ye Olde Hegemony
I hope you two idiots realize that if you send over an army of 20,000 to India, 90% of them will die en route.

Spain builds a military school - 1m Budget: 2.1m Army de León is returned to Madrid. It'll stay there as a reserve force for fast response and whatever. Army de León: 5000 peasants 800 spearmen 4000 Archers 1800 Swordsmen 400 Men at Arms 2400 Spanish Jinetes 1600 Knights of Santiago Total size: 16,000 Oh, and I arm the 5,000 peasants with halberds and leather armour. So, treasury: 1.8m. They can wear pots and pans as helmets.

Since Wales now has a budget of 5m since the nobility has been absorbed into the government, they build a castle. And I renew the guarantee of independence I have on Andorra.

Spain monopolizes oxygen.

Can we please keep in mind that it wasn't until the 1400s that large scale expeditions were possible to Asia and the Pacific. So, taking over the throne of Sri Lanka would be useless as all they'd have to do is rebel and you'd have no way of getting troops over there to stop them.

Egypt is allied with Mather.

That part of North Africa is actually pretty darn rich. And why would Egypt be mad that I took over someone else's land?

Spain sends a colonization force out to the Canary Islands, the Azores, and the Madeira islands. Oh yes, and Spain has 20 cogs. So treasury is at 2.1m now.

I was under the impression that when you bought a troop, that's what troop you got. That way someone can't just run around with an army of 10,000 swordsmen and then when they get attacked by cavalry say 'Well, I just gave them spears and shields. They're spearmen now!'

Then they'd be terrible spies and scouts, since they wouldn't be able to move stealithy or fast. His unique unit has conflicting roles - you can't be a shock troop fit for breaking enemy lines if you're equipped like a scout with a sword and a dagger, and you can't be a scout or a spy if your equipped to break enemy battle lines.

I invent the Gods of Leon, they function as spies, ninjas, assassins, fortress breakers, sappers, crusaders, mathematicians, philosophers, tanks, spearmen, mobile cavalry, and experimental physicists. And they can fly. But that's secret. I fail to see how they can function as shock troops if they're wearing armour that spies wear (aka nothing), and wielding weapons that scouts carry (aka a sword, maybe a spear).
-
Ye Olde Hegemony
How can they be scouts and shock troops? One is lightly armoured and runs away, the other armoured like a tank and rushes in.

Everyone thinks their unique unit is the best unit, Rocco. The Knights of Santiago would probably rip a bloody path through Nex's units, that much I know. hehe

Considering I had to invade Wales and beat the [cabbage] out of its army before they finally allowed me to protect it from England I somehow doubt Ireland will be any different.
