Oh, you're right. There isn't even a town there. Shouldn't there be at least a minor town there or something? Rome's there! Wtf?!

And you guys took the Algerian capital! Wow. Looks like Algeria wants to race with England, Poland, Bavaria and maybe Austria for who's going down first.

Your nerves? The Vatican is only a 5 day carriage ride from Naples. The bugger was down here every other month.

The garrison at El Djazar is named "The Imperial Seat". It sounds quite grand. I'm thinking of making it my capital.

Sigh, I wish I could relocate to anywhere right now. I'm getting quite bored of my castle in London and I can't go out what with the constant assassination attempts. When I catch those rebellious nobles and their peasant king there will be Hell to pay, let me tell you! I just wish my reinforcements from the colonies would hurry.

Spain seems quite aggressive for a "minor" power. First he attacks England and now Naples which seems to be allied with the Ottomans. And Halitose seems like such a nice, non-confrontational kind of guy!

I guess I should be glad not to be one of them cards.

I'd hate to see you playing Russian Roulette.

You should read some of the overtly aggressive PMs he’s flooding my inbox with.

You should see what his overly aggressive soldiers do to our women. It's shocking, really!

It seems that the way the game is set up, instant massive invasions across the English Channel are the way to go. It used to be that England was doing the invading, but I both didn't know that and was hit with nerfs so I suffered from France doing the invading.

What was going on in Napoleon's time? Were there ever cross Channel invasions? If not, how should the game be changed to make it more historically accurate?
