The only sucky thing is that there are only 2 merc companies and they're both mid range expensive...so not super useful until a certain point.

The thing that makes Axum even more epic is that it already has like 3 churches and a city.

quote:The map of Brazil has seen one of the biggest changes, as the new map has reduced the wasteland provinces in this region greatly. The overhaul moves the border of the habitable parts of Brazil to include all areas settled during the period of the game and is accompanied by an overhaul of historical colonization dates for the later starts. At first glance, the coasts are far more attractive than the inland (which has lower tax values and more provinces with tropical climate) but investment in colonization of the inland can be quite rewarding in terms of the trade goods found there (especially the gold that in many ways drove the historical colonization). Calling Plutonis... oh I just realized he's in jail for 6 days. Well, when I saw this dev note I thought of you

MAn I've been struggling over the last 100 years to build an epic realm and I finally took a holy site (Sinai). Aside from that I own half of Egypt and now have a border with the seljuks and HRE Jerusalem. The real poo poo starts now. I wish empires were easier to create. Had a king live to 70 and he only amassed 3k prestige with nigh constant wars and literally always leading my army (Organiser/Holy Warrior for the epic MF Win!). *000 prestige is slightly insane.

where are you playing widestancer i started a 700s game on sri lanka and had to banish my fuckhead eldest son when he refused to accept the island's transition to ultimogeniture. i will now spend the next several centuries developing it into the premiere naval and diplomatic power of the indian ocean

Don't you know I do what I do for the good of this family?! Seriously though, if my brother in law could just be happy for once with his holdings that are larger than mine, my dynasty would bridge oceans. Short-sighted greedy bastards.

I've never played in Ireland because islands are way too static, Poland is actually a pro-tier starting choice in every bookmark, though. Being one of the Polish High Chiefs will help you learn about de jure realms and expansion strategies, while the king of poland in the 1066 bookmark is really handy if you want to get the hang of managing vassals since you get a good amount of counts and dukes who aren't too powerful.

Yeah, that is true, although in the last king of poland game I played I managed to invade hungary and inherit the byzantines, so you have enough time to build a powerbase for the mongols, who are your end-game.

i did do a game pre-2.0 where i managed to have basically the PLC borders but the mongols never showed up. then the muslims invaded through spain and took over half of europe, so i ended up owning all of europe after a couple crusades

Maybe i'll do a tribal poland game. i lost interest in ireland as soon as i civilized. picts might be cool because you can raid all the english minors though

I got freaking blindsided by the Shias trying to take a Jerusalem duchy from HRE. HRE clowncar just kept coming and eventually outnumbered me so I white peaced out and then Shia Egypt rump declared war and brought in the Arabian Caliph and the battles and siege of one holding were enough to get 100%.

Taking Jerusalem from HRE is gonna be nigh impossible...they're on high CA and field somethign ridic like 60k troops, plus they vassaled pope immediately. I hate how easy it is to do that.
