Welcome back! This week I cover the re-entry of Bavaria and Colonge in the war as the Truce of Ulm collapses. Can the imperials improve their positions for the negotiations? Sorry for the audio quality, but I'm a bit too sick to rerecord it. And to correct one error, when I say six thousand six hundred, I meant 660,000. Thank you for listening, and I'll see you guys next time!

Welcome back! This week we go over the debates over the reality of peace and what it would be for the HRE. The main focus was on amnesty and restitution, as well as what the normative year would be for the empire. Politics is politics, but there was a growing consensus that hadn't been there for years. Please review and spread the word, and I'll see you guys next time!

Welcome back! This week we go over more of the diplomatic side of the war, showing how land would be used to help negotiate, and how the Austrians used their hand effectively to keep what they needed. The war was dying off in terms of major battles, with only one or two left. I hope you enjoy the episode, and I'll see you next time!

Welcome back! This week we cover a conflict between two factions of Hessen-Kassel, and the degradation of the imperial army. The Swedes also make small gains as they capture a prize for the ages. Things are not going well for the imperial forces, and it's becoming more clear that everyone was tired and this war needed to end for everyone. Thanks for listening and I'll see you guys next time!

Welcome back! Today we cover the events of 1646 as the war starts to come to an end. Granted the beginning of the end is still three years, but after nearly thirty years of on-and-off war, just having an end in sight is a relief. But like always, peace negotiations take time, and war continues as the fighting enters Westphalia, the sight of the negotiations. Thank you for listening and I'll see you guys next time!

Welcome back! The year of 1645 comes to an end as all the battles and diplomacy of 1645 shows what effect it had. This war has been long, but we only have three years left as the factions inch closer to a full peace. That doesn't mean that we don't have battles to go, but the negotiations at Westphalia will become more tangible. Thank you for listening and I'll see you guys next time!

Welcome back! There might be a bit of tinny audio at the start, but I had to get a new computer so I have to adjust to that. But we move back into the war as the first battle of the year, the Battle of Jankau! We see if the Imperials can beat the Swedes, fresh off the war with Denmark. Thank you for listening and I'll see you next time!
