[ParallelPlay] AAR Isnochys Plays Victoria II: Japan #1

Kids, pay attention.
This is the story, how I tried to learn stuff about Victoria 2.

We start as the fine uncivilized nation of Japan, well, not really, we are a Shogunate and have lots of others as allies.
But this will change at some point I hope.

Trade policy.
I have no idea, what to do here, so we just click, what @lunaticpandora clicked:)
Seems reasonable and ok.

How does the military work?
No idea, we just build a bunch of soldiers and horses.
They have to figure it out, how to attack the enemy.

First war, Hawaii!
Those evil ones

Our troops are victorious.
(And I still got a navy)

We gained Hawaii.
I don't seem to core it, or at least there is no such thing for won provinces.

If you can see the navy, that would be nice.
They were just on their way to Eto.
74% full, before Hawaii.
But that seem to be a thing in Victoria.
Lesson learned, Navys just die.
:)

Next point of order, Vietnam.
CB needs to be prepared.

Just for fun, we change to Court Faction.
Because we can do it!
and lots of disturbances can happen.
Or not!
Who knows?
I really need to read the Victoria 2 wiki
:))

Let's invade Vietnam, I have rebuilt my Navy.

Sailors?
I send them home, they have nothing lost on our shores!

Sweet Victory in Vietnam.
That was so easy, USA!

Something something happens back home.
The picture looks fun and the stats are good.
Or not?
Wait, do I have stability in this game?

We are now at war with..let's call them Thailand.
And some Infamy, whatever that is, went up to 14.
I think 25 is bad, so let's keep it down there.

And more mountainous regions will be added to our non existing empire.
Hooray.

Not pictured, Hawaii. We own quite the amount of Vietnam

Oh, I forgot the stats, where can I find those?
Will add them next time for the AAR.

That was fun!
I have no idea, what I am doing, I am just attacking and, well, how do I get westernised.
That must happen at some point.
Reforms? well, they are on the way, maybe.
So, watch me conquer more or get beaten up even more, tomorrow.
