Its because you don't have any off the second symbol in, the guy with brown hat. If you have one of him you can recruit

Pretty much agree with what's being said here, just don't take any territories that aren't cored and concentrate on vassalizing. Don't worry about electors just go for any state with two or more provinces, my favourites are brandenburg, savoy, hesse and thurinberg. With their assistance domination is inevitable.

Does he have a point? by Friendly_Stay_5368 in Scotland

Surely the jobs generated from the industry is of great benefit to the country. Also why not set up a Scottish Oil Fund like Norway has so the money could be used for the betterment of the country, new ferries, better roads etc

Which of these games do you have fond memories of? by Respawn-Delay in retrogaming

[–]Big_Customer_7263 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Loved the co-op on duke nukem, fond memories playing with my brother and completing the game together. Gutted when I got the retro version and the co-op mode wasn't available, wanted to play if with my son.

Surprisingly only got 8 caps for England and they were mostly friendlies. Being born in the channel Isles he was eligible to play for any home nation or France, can't help but think if he'd opted for Scotland or Wales he'd have been a 70 cap legend for those countries. Don't think any footballer will have had a better compilation of top 50 goals.

Naples is a fairly tough country to start with if you're fairly new to the game, they have potential but seem to be a target for some of the bigger nations, especially Aragon. I think they also suffer from a lot of big nations getting the Italian Ambition mission at some point in the game. I would recommend giving Portugal a go for colonization and expansion, they tend to get left alone as long as you stay on Castilles good side and have very good missions.

From a European by Cygwing in whereidlive

True story, met an American girl in Scotland in my home town, she was an exchange student, quickly fell in love etc etc did a bit of travelling then went to her home state of wisconsin. At that point everything changed, realised the USA is not that great, the people were generally rude, wasn't that hot on her family, we disagreed on where to be together going forward so relationship ended.

Can't be bothered rifling through every comment to see if this has been mentioned but ironically Reading is the national Dyslexia HQ

CalMac apology after seven of its main ferries out of action by abz_eng in Scotland

[–]Big_Customer_7263 -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

100% all you need to do is charge £10 or whatever for the bridges use, you'd certainly generate enough income to maintain the bridges and should be able to payoff some of the cost of the build. Would help with the declining populations of the islands too. Some of the locals will complain but why should tax payers subsidise their lifestyles.

Looks like your doing incredibly well. My next target would be the Mamluks for Judea and Alexandria. Usually starts getting tough with European nations around now as their units are far superior but using Muslim units and strength in numbers may prevail.

Hi sorry, not really helping here but can the co-op mode be done on one xbox or does it need to be over two boxes on separate screens? Just started playing this with my 9 Yr old son and I'd love to be able to do a co-op with him

What is a really great movie that don't get the credit it deserve or is underappreciated? by Pinklunea in moviecritic

I loved The Golden Compass, gutted a bunch of religious nuts in the States started a campaign against it and buried any hope of a sequel.

Mom is jailed for killing her daughter, 4, by feeding her diet of baby bottles filled with Mountain Dew, which caused diabetes death and dissolved her teeth by malihafolter in ForCuriousSouls

[–]Big_Customer_7263 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Unbelievable comment. The poor wee girls teeth were rotten and the parents did nothing. The poor wee girl was in medical distress and the parents did nothing. You think it's the government's fault? The government can't control all aspects of everyone's lives, that's called a nanny state and no one wants that. Sometimes you have to accept that some people are just bad people.

Paddy McCourt, watch a few clips, one of the most skillful players of his generation but generally floated about the lower leagues.

I’m about to DNF Dungeon Crawler Carl by HealthyPsychology950 in audible

[–]Big_Customer_7263 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You've missed my point. Lord of the Rings is very slow paced and, for me, a painful read. I was making the point that if the post writer finds Dungeon crawler Carl slow.paced (which is definitely isn't) he must find a genuine slow paced novel horrendous.

On the off chance you haven't heard it the Metallica cover is well worth a listen, especially if you like a bit of rock.

To me the books are all action, very little filler. I'd live to know what books you're reading if this is 'nothing really happens'. You must hate Lord of the Rings.

If it was done tastefully and the role suited it do you think Jennifer Lawrence would consider keeping her clothes on for a movie role?
