Krefarus 65 Author Share Posted July 29, 2019 (edited) World Events For most of the year, Crusading armies have been gathering and preparing. A large amount of manpower and material hailing from the Empire. Towards the late summer, the preparations are finished. Participants are made aware, Venetian ships will transport the crusaders to either Cyprus or Egypt, from there they will advance into Judea. (discord for all involved) King Orodes III denounces the, in his eyes, unjustified act of aggression from the Catholic world. Rumours of Persian armies and flowing into the Holy land in order to support the Jews spread like wildfire. The Andalusians finally achieve a victory in the field against the Portugese Imperial forces. Though it was not a decisive victory, they have begun to advance into the province itself.Kingdom of Denmark A great victory won at the Battle of Copenhagen. Once more the ancient Danish capital is in Danish hands. But the Norwegians have escaped mostly intact, and show no signs of folding to the coalition any time soon..Clan O’Neill A great battle about to unfold. The O’ Neill’s situation is grim, but not hopeless. The future of the Emerald Isle and of Clan O’ Neill itself hang in the balance.Imperial State of Egypt The Egyptian armies have returned home safely from Greece, only to be thrust into yet another conflict. However this is a far more righteous one! In other news, the Libyans seem somewhat disgruntled at the fact the Egyptians believe they can simply strong arm them into the crusade. Though nothing comes of it this year, perhaps it is a sign of things to come?Kingdom of Epirus Another year of war, another year the Macedonians have not advanced into Epirus itself. Some of the troops begin to wonder if Epirus is even at war!The Holy & Righteous Kingdom of Leon The papal decree is not required. The Imperials issue a statement shortly after the call to the Crusade that any who wish to participate will be given safe passage and transportation. More bricks are laid, yet there is still more construction to be done… The war council awaits.. (Discord!!!!!!)Kingdom of Byzantium Word arrives towards the end of the year. Marcus has won a great victory at the siege of Pergamon. Though it was a rather tedious and bloody endeavor, after several failed assaults, and months of waiting around the Ionians finally caved. The country is won, and Byzantine rule has begun to take hold, supported by Marcus’ army.

hellfiazz 878 Share Posted July 29, 2019 K O N U N G D Ó M R T A N M A R K A R [LAST TURN] S U M M A R Y:3 Markets in Áross [22,500 Gold] 1,450 Gold Remaining --- [THIS TURN] Kaupmannahǫfn, the old capital, was once again in Danish hands. After a year-long siege, the combined forces of Sweden and Denmark had finally pressured the remaining defenders into surrender. Through caution and sound strategy, the loss of life for both the coalition and the citizenry was minimal, and King Hardeknud had entered what was now a town triumphantly. In the coming year, he set about returning the old capital to its former status. The King’s court and his retainers were brought over to Sjaelland, save for Jarl Einarr who’s sound governance was entrusted with Áross. The King immediately sets about rejuvenating the capital, as he had promised to the citizens throughout the siege. The town already boasted a small market, but was lacking if it was to be the centre of a capital’s economy. As such, a large quantity of gold is spent on expanding the market and improving opportunities to attract new merchants and bolster long-standing ones. Still, not all efforts are centred on the renovation of Kaupmannahǫfn. Just across the narrow strait between Fyn and Sjaelland, the hinterlands of Oðinnsvé see considerable investment. With more troops and more settlements came more mouths to feed, and so the expansion of farms was vital. Meanwhile, the war with Norway was not yet concluded – not while the traitor king still sat on the throne in Oslo. The King sets about further military expansion, recruiting another 1,000 of the infamous Víkingr to bolster the ranks of the future invasion force. Another transport is constructed for the same purpose.
