Any William game is difficult. If Harold remains, it's usually the Duke of York who gets on you.

Drink your alcohol man. Don't tell me it's healthy to justify your addiction. And yes, it is an addiction. I don't care if you only drink it a few times a week or even once a week. If you can't stop, you're addicted. Adrenaline is good for you too. Maybe I should go on a few robberies.

I do MT, PMT, PT, but not FT, PMT, or FanT. Too many blurred lines and people with overactive imaginations.

You play as any nation beginning in 1836 (or 1861, if you have the House Divided DLC) and your goal is to industrialise and colonise!

Yeah that basically describes the game.

Oh, and don't forget endless wars between the Russians (especially Kiev and Rostov, and to a lesser extent, Ryazan) being complete bastards toward each other, rather than protectin each other from the Hordes.

Oh, and the endless supply of Hungarian pretenders.

Not really. All nations begin will decent amounts of territory, and there's essentially no "win game".

No, an addiction is when you psychologically become dependent on something, most people who have 1 or 2 glasses every 3-4 days/weeks is not in any way addicted to it and do have the ability to stop whenever they want.

Byzantium usually has a different Basileus every two seconds, and Croatia just sits there half the time.
And the Hungary - HRE alliance is completely useless.
