129. War on Three Fronts

129. War on Three Fronts

Karl really has his hands full now. By the end of this episode, he'll be fighting three wars on three fronts, but will at least be able to test a new fancy weapon from France... Plus one of his commanders, Jacob de la Gardie, leads one of Swedish history's most famous expeditions. In the meantime, Karl also tries to reorganise Swedish industry and mining back home, to varying degrees of success.
