Chapter Two Hundred and Twenty-Seven - Impressment Offices Built



1 Jan, 1791 – As a reminder, the game ends in 30 years, it does not end 400 years later in 11 Nov, 1844, but 3 Jan, 1821.

I have 19k, I order:

4 Manufactories

There is a Manufactory called the “Impressment Office” that increases my sailors by 250, they are better in Salt, Fish, Tropical Wood or Naval Supplies.

For example, if I build one in Tuat’s 3 dev Salt Desert province it won’t work since it needs a coast, like Grain Coast, it cost 350 and then takes 5 years to build, and in the Grain Coast it’s 500 Sailors

I build 7 Impressment Offices

1 Grand Shipyard

1 Grand Mosque

15 Universities

10k left

30 Jan – Event – Tariffs too High – I lower them

13 Feb – My 31k is built in Egypt’s Berber, I send it southward for next year’s war

26 Feb - I promote a general to replace one that died today

1 May – With a +52, relations max with Scandinavia, I pull them

Deccan is at war with Bengal, and we weren’t called in.

Japan is at war with Wu, this might be a good time to step in.

14 June – I send it to make nice with Engerland

1 Aug – Our Level 5 Advisor DIP passes and I hire a level 3 Statesman that increases your dip reputation, and then I spend 2400 raising it to level 5

1 Dec – Our High Imam passes!

Our new Ruler is High Imam Hasan II 2/1/2, feh, age 35

Consort – Jalila, 20 years old, 2/0/4

Heir – Muhammed – 0 years, 2/2/3.

Our stability drops. I spend 125 ADM to raise it back to +3

With a +45, relations max with Geneva, dip recalled

11 Dec – Sent to make nice with Hormuz

18 Jan, 1792 – Event – We choose the Shiekh best for the role

This is the year my peace treaty with Somalia is up!

I have 15k, I just order:

12 Universities

12k left, all places have one

22 April – Royal Marriage with Malacca

1 May – Relations maxed with England, diplomat pulled

23 May – Royal Marriage with Bengal

2 June – Royal Marriage Persia

3 July – I send a diplomat to make nice with Transoxiana

1 Aug – Truce is up with Somalia and friends!

Any new allies?

Nope!

Army Check of the Two that Matter:

Aden – 120k
Somalia – 85k

I DOW Somalia for the Horn of Africa minor on the coast called Warshiekh, it’s up the coast from Mogadishu and has a high dev

I call in Malacca since they are not at war right now:

The 7th Somalia War has begun!
