Oh plans. Well I had them as you may have read in my last blog I am playing Empire: Total War. I made a classic mistake though in that I expanded faster than my Empire could finacially support. In my case I was fighting a war on mutiple fronts, like at least 4 enemies from which i had direct contact with. These enemies wore down my economy through raids and neglected the repairs.
So by like the next turn imediately after my last blog things started going downhill. My income began to go away which forced me to raise taxes which in turn has causes rebellions. It of of course stalled my expansion effort and made it hard for me maintain a proper garrision in newly occupied territories. Replenishing my troops also become impossible. Then one of my allies choose to attack another ally and I chose a side which of course gained me another enemy with my territorial reach. I did however manage to broker a cease fire deal for nothing with the Cherokee nation and for now that seems to be holding which is good.
At this point I am just trying to hold on and try to repair infrastructure and hope that my income will come back up. On the war front I just need to defend with what I got, or less.
