Although there was a great harvest many peasants had risen up and taken arms against the king. Some even attempted to storm the Royal palace. Although they were easily put down by the guards they still caused considerable damage. So as a form of punishment King Casimir raised the taxes. This may inflame the rebels so he only raised it a slight bit and increased patrols throughout the countryside. He also sent a letter to the Ottomans stating:

King Casimir also sent two 25,000 man armies to the eastern borders of the Lithuanians in anticipation of a conquest into Crimea.



Didnt you mention that you dont want to betray everybody again in your app?

What do you mean with sit around the lagoon?
On land? If so,then yes,the ships.
I know you have some too.But venice has more.much more.
Why would land defenses help you when sieging? I doubt you would start constructing forts in the middle of italy,would you?
Buy what? I already have my ships.

No,seriously,that would cause the people to get angry.Both the orthodox lithuanians(I think they were orthodox) and the catholic polish (And lithuanians,if they werent orthodox).
And finally,I had to,sorry,but *infidelic / *heathenous - heretic is for inside the relegion (as far as I know),f.e. Orthodox and catholic,sunni and shia.

Ohhh valentir.
Always aiming on self-destruction ;)
Civil wars are a hard thing.
Especially if the king has few direct landings,is trying to fight the nobles,and meanwhile anger the bourgeouis even more,so they join forces with the nobles to kill you off (Mad,isnt it?Nobles and the citizens uniting.Now,ya see,thats something to be remembered for. King Henry,The unitor of his kingdom (for getting his a** kicked by all)).
Seriously,dont go down there,the britsmen(or englishmen,they still were) love their rights,both noble,and citizen ones.I have a hard time believing they will simply let you take power.
And this time,you cant take the people against the nobles.

So I should just run over to the pope,sack rome,sack athens,move west,siege genoa,sack granada,skip the rest of iberia and sack brittany,ending up with paying some tolls to denmark,and finishing it all with a sacking tour on the wolga?

No,because I can,isnt a reason.

You have ships, now what? How do you get food? I can occupy your LAND where your ships can't go and prevent you from getting food.

My troop actions was assembling them into an army, wouldn't that count as an action? I didn't raise new troops.

Sorry for the delay guys. I had to bring my Laptop in to get the screen fixed (Everything was all fuzzy). Turns out they don't make the right parts anywhere in Minnesota to fix it, so it took awhile to get them shipped in. I'll try to catch up on the situation as fast as I can.
