I hadn't expected a Skantarios reference at all, hmm multiple Muslim armies dying before the walls of Trebizond to come?

Still, im pretty sure by that time, the Greenland route would've been easily rediscovered wouldn't it?

Ah schism, an ever present thorn in any Basileus and Aftokrator. Iconoclasm, Monothelitism, union with the Pope, and now secularism.

Seems like the ripples of the Mongols Eastern Campaigns have come as the Cumans starts to move westward?

But with the coming Mongol invasion of Russia, there is the opportunity to reestablish the Varangians with a bunch of hardened Rus with no home to go back to.

"general of absolutely no historical consequence named Mikhael Kantakouzenos Philanthropenos" Hmmm, I wonder. 🤔

Wait, wouldn't the Imperial Fleet blockade Trebizond? And also I'm not seeing how Dioceretes wouldn't get slaughter by the citizens of Trebizond before the year is out.

Hopefully, the Eleutheroi won't lose half of their man and officers to a Palace coup before facing any combat like last time.

We need an extended period of no major hegemon in Anatolia, the Ottomans need to suffer a major defeat somewhere that draws their attention away, while Trebizond stabilises and reclaim the Pontic area. Maybe expanding into the Caucacus or attempting to absorb the turks on the Anatolian Black Sea...

Finally, a TL with an Monarcho-Socialist ideology, all those memes will finally come true!

It would seem Alexandros sees an opportunity to regain the Throne, although one should trust the Genoese as one should the Venetian, that is not at all.

Trebizond really got its worked cut out for them. It was really a shame Alexios I got super unlucky. Hopefully his descendants can regain the Black Sea coast at least. Watched.

I don't know it this has been patched, but somehow the Free France owns an island or two south of Madagascar. I can only surmise the last known communications these Island received were De Gaulle's OTL broadcast.

This is going to end in a succession crisis or a legitimacy crisis for the heir isn't it.

Better to give him the same name as his grandfather, Ironsides.

The UK could easy buy War Material from the US and France, so why would they buy from Germany and give its armament industry a boost?

Wait, what happened to the Kantakouzenos? Were they killed in the purge of the Angeloi supporters or something?

Wait did the Heavy Cruisers have Radar installed yet? Otherwise it would be strange the two would be sunk without some kind of movement.

Hmm, I feel like if Otto is seen as too much of a Ottoman 'sympathiser' by the Greek population, they might rise up again.
