PurpleXVI posted:Only when the Christians are driven off the Iberian peninsula can the kingdom of Andalus turn its attention to projects of peace and faith. As long as the kingdom's enemies are at our borders, we can't afford to let down our guard. drat straight I'm supporting this policy. Only a crypto-Christian would refer to the great Sultanate of Al-Andalus as a Kingdom. This man is clearly a traitor and spy and should be sent to the oubliette!

 I, Emir Hussein al-Paragonia, do propose that al-Andalus must strengthen its navy to the point where they can defend our home from sea borne invasions. Funding for the navy will, however, be subordinate to spending on our land forces until Portugal, Galicia, and Leon have been removed from Iberia.

Gentlemen! ...Have I missed the meeting? Damnation! Well, I'll have to wait for the next one then. But I bring news! I have been off to the south, negotiating trade with the Ghanese, and they have told me news which I can only describe as fantastic. The Kingdom of Mali has sent ships to sail across the endless wastes of the Ocean Sea. Those ships came back. There is land across the sea, how much they do not know! Land full of peoples who have not heard the word of God, and riches that they apparently have never known how to tap! If we do not stake a claim in this New World, I fear it will only be a matter of time before the Christians do, and between them and the Africans they will divide it up and leave us with nothing, and them with more wealth and peoples they can turn against us. We have pressing concerns in Iberia--this I do not deny! But I propose we must explore the New World, to see what may be there for us! Even if we do nothing with this knowledge today, knowledge is POWER!

 I, Chatrapati of the Ulama, propose that brilliant mosques and universities should be built throughout the land to meet the spiritual needs of the people. We do not need to put our Christian brothers to the sword, but let them marvel at the holiness of Al-Andalus so that they may come back to Islam of their own volition. (Don't know much about this game, but if it's possible, build mosques and universities)

Redeye Flight posted:But I propose we must explore the New World, to see what may be there for us! Even if we do nothing with this knowledge today, knowledge is POWER! Keep in mind that in EU4, you can't actually explore until you unlock the right idea group (Exploration), which will only happen if the League of Merchants are in power. Since the New Taifas currently hold the majority, we won't get the opportunity to explore and colonise until at least the next re-alignment of the Majlis, which'll happen upon the current Sultan's death. Chatrapati posted:(Don't know much about this game, but if it's possible, build mosques and universities) Universities aren't unlocked until tech 17, so it's a while away, but mosques are fine.

For our great party's second policy, I, Emir Flavius al-Belisarius, who is totally not a Roman, propose a nation-wide investment in temples. My reasoning is two-fold: 1) It is for the glory of Allah that we commit to this jihad, and we must honor Him. 2) Temples not only bring the support of the imams, but also help organize our taifas for more efficient taxation (the most halal form of income) to better support God's armies.

I, Whit27, propose that we strengthen our grip on the Sevillan trade node. One merchant should collect trade there with the other transferring trade power from incoming nodes. We should build marketplaces in our Sevillan trade centers and send a heavy or two to hunt pirates in the Sevilla trade node to guard against the barbary pirates.

I was originally dreading the thread being cluttered with ten pages of roleplaying for every one page with updates relevant to the LP, but seeing Emir Flavius al-Belisarius's satirical political cartoon made me realize I was being stupid and ignorant. This is going to be hilarious.

I, Purplebeard, propose that we build a fleet of galleys that can stand up to any Mediterranean power, and look for opportunities to take control of prominent ports in the region. For the forseeable future, the Mediterranean is where the money is. Opportunities will come to expand our influence over the trade in the region, and we must be ready to take advantage when they do.

Declare war on the westernmost Christian kingdoms, starting with Portugal: Lord Cyrahzax, Tendronai, Luhood, Chief Savage Man, PurpleXVI, catlord, Snipee, Ralepozozaxe, Mikl, LJN92, Viola the Mad, Rubix Squid, Flavius Belisarius, ShootaBoy, Ikasuhito, theblastizard, ThatBasqueGuy, Bloody Pom. Declare war on the Christians, but ensure the navy can defend Andalusi shores: paragon1. Renew alliance with the Almoravids: Rodyle. More temples: Flavius Belisarius. Privateer the Genoa trade node: HailedUser, Dance Officer. Attempt to increase power in the Sevilla node: Whit27, The Lone Badger, Archaeology Hat. Focus resources on building a galley fleet: Purplebeard. Just build mosques: Chatrapati, Slaan, BravestOfTheLamps, dd777. So it looks like the Tafias want war with the western Christians (their other proposals are tied), the Merchants want to focus on increasing power in the Sevilla node, whilst the Ulama unanimously want mosques. I'll try and get an update out tonight. I love it.

Hashim, your summary isn't really an accurate reflection of what my proposal is supposed to be. It'd be more like, "Strengthen the navy, but not at the expense of the army conquering Portugal, Castille, and Leon." So I guess what I'm saying is the BUT should be an AND. It's a minor quibble, but I thought I should mention it anyway.
