Age of Glory, 1504 Alternate History RP, OOC/Signups

[Ukraine Republic]

Tribea Are you staying neutral in the war with venice?

[Amerique Royal]

You Ottoman pigs declaring war against Austria, Aragon, Venice, Milan, Byzantium and Aquatine? Good fucking luck. I was really going to allow you time to gain some more allies of yours so we could have a fair war, but your preemptive attack will result in your doom.

[Ukraine Republic]

A majority of those countries don't even match Assadian's. :l

[Tribea]

Me.

Awesome - if you could spare some Swiss mercs and iron/silver/gold I would be happy to pay in massive amounts of grain, livestock and fine art

Again, theres no way you would be able to get mercs LIKE CONCH THE BURRITO thinks he can, but i might have some extra silver.

[Tribea]

Tribea Are you staying neutral in the war with venice?

No, fighting for Venice on the current path, though if Venice fucks up its Ottomans.

[Ukraine Republic]

Tribea, xD Just answer Neutral or not. Your more toward's venice I know.

[Amerique Royal]

I love how you also didn't specify the amount of ships, what route they are taking, their crew and type, or basically anything required in an RP Invasion. Also you expect to ship a whole army or horsemen across a Sea? I will give you one chance to stop this invasion and try again later, one chance. In every front your plans are unrealistic.

I'm not talking hundreds of thousands, not even tens of thousands.

250-500 crossbowmen, 300-500 pikemen, 400-500 swordsmen - something in or around that. 2000 troops at the very most.

[Ukraine Republic]

Oh, who said they would all survive? It's from Constantinople to the start of Greece at least 500 are going to die on the trip.

[Ukraine Republic]

Also i could get about 260,000 more troop's seeing i only use 2.5% of my population in my military maybe even less.

[Ukraine Republic]

Nation name: Ottoman Empire
Ruler: Bayezid II
Religion: Islamic
Population: 9.6 Million (Believe that or 8.5 Million because of in 1520 there was 11 million.)
Military Numbers: 210,000 (5% is 480,000)
Main focus: To spread Islamic, and to conquer the Balkan's, Trading with other nation's.
Other: The ottoman empire was known for trading and their extensive growth in a short period.

I used less than 50% of 5% so i can get 270,000 more troop's.

[Ukraine Republic]

This could increase the Navy mainly, and the Infantry. I call land troop's infantry.

About 50,000 francs.
Doable.

[Alouite]

Also, Switz mercs will not be willing to invade Switzerland, in case that was unclear.

Payable in the form of jewel encrusted chalices, staffs, crowns, ornamental swords/shields?

You can make your military 10% of your population, but Venice, Austria, and Aragon were some of the most powerful and influential Kingdoms at the time. Their armies combined triple yours, and are of better quality. And our navies will be probably triple or double as well. Doing reasearch on those statistics at the moment. I will give you a chance, but as soon as a ship or man is shot, it's gone.

In the OP I placed a limit at 5%...

[The Ik Ka Ek Akai]

Hellenism was not the Byzantines official religion even though it existed (as a tiny minority of the Greek population)

I am well aware, hence why they are rebels seeking to "Restore a Hellenic Greek state"

[Ukraine Republic]

Also, why would Venice get "everyone" on their side? Mostly speaking I could make a embargo on their asses and they can't do anything. :l, We also have Christian's in the Kingdom, so we can use Diplomatic Christian's just win over kingdom's >:D.

I was being hypothetical, like even if he was allowed to place his army at 10%, it probably wouldn't match the armies of my allies. Doing research on actual populations so everyone knows I am not Godmodding.

[Ukraine Republic]

I did some research to, Sharia law does not exist in my part of the Ottoman empire. This allowing any religion inside the border's.

[Ukraine Republic]

Forced conversion of those raised by a non-Muslim father is counter to Sharia law, and was not a standard practice. However, anyone whose father was Muslim was usually legally required to be Muslim or face execution for apostasy. Until the empire began to crumble, Ottoman law required the execution of all former Muslims and children of non-Muslims of a Muslim father in accordance with the Sharia law on apostasy. Sharia law

[Ukraine Republic]

Thus allowing, the Christianity thus allowing conversion of Muslim's into Christian's.

I'm just going to stop debating about this and start posting, the results for the armies are in, so now let me get the navy stats and we are good to go.

[Amerique Royal]

THOUSANDTH POST! May this RP have many more to come!
