7. Austria 5
8. England 9
9. Spain 10
10. Algeria 11
11. Bavaria 6

Austria did not move and it looks like there's a replacement; they're gonna need it with a Russo-Turkish army massing. A combined pre-emptive strike by P and grabbed three of her provinces. England kept shrinking but has rebuilt a sizeable army.
How the hell am I not in last place? I guess my large garrison must be giving me a lot of points?

EDIT - And what is it with you and Bavaria?

You have the 4th biggest army in Combat strength and 5th biggest in Hit points. Other than that, you're screwed.

Bavaria's had it coming for 475 years; payback's a bitch!

I was looking at the map right now. I looked at my garrison in Kent, saw it was strong (of course I already knew this), then decided to look around and see how strong other ppls military was. I glanced down at France and saw a 2104/59 army in Bourbon!

😲

Then of course I realized it was the MD map.

Our goal is simply to reunite Germany and give the German people the peace and prosperity they so richly deserve. King David of Sweden was also outraged by the brutal treatment of Holland by the sadistic Bavarian tyrants and insisted they be freed from their chains; we have re-installed King Ivanhoe to his rightful place on the Dutch throne. The Bavarian fleet which had made unprovoked raids terrifying the simple peasants living along the coasts of Scandinavia also had to be, and was, dealt with.

Going for a little lebensraum, eh? Tell me, did you bomb Rotterdam when you "freed" Holland?

These days it's "collateral damage". In the 1300s it was burn, rape and pillage but not necessarily in that order.

You might not want to follow that historical analogy to its logical conclusion, Emperor of France.

I only have a small scrap of paper to look at here in my dungeon, but it seems the promised liberation of Krakow has not occurred and I am doomed to bread and water for another year.

GET ORGANISED!

The Russians have taken Krakow, though Warsaw is holding out. Perhaps the Czar doesn't intend to return you to the throne after all.

*gulp*

I suddenly feel lighter.

What's that line across my throat?

And why do I have an urge to play the harp?
