Agreed. Yes because having to rebuild from scratch is fun after you've effortlessly blobbed for a few hundred years.

WELL THAT JUST HAPPENED!

If I wasn't in the middle of reading the Andalusia LP, I'd be all up for invading, but it turns out reading in detail how one country gets continually dunked on is pretty dispiriting.

So, No.

I agree, we have absolutely no chance of winning right now but I wouldn't mind seeing us invade them later. Voting no because picking a fight with China right now is suicide.

Also, don't you lose all your levies if you declare war on China? So we'd have basically nobody to fight those 175,000 Chinese supersoldiers.

No


We want to see Tibet actually win an invasion of China, this would just be suicide.

It really needs to be underlined for those not familiar: invading China during the golden age is literally the hardest thing in the game. This will require poo poo so gamey it's practically cheating.

While you don’t lose your levies, I’m fairly sure that you do get an extreme realm-wide penalty to levy reinforcement (to simulate your sending a massive army into China, I guess). So there is a pretty big penalty we can ill afford so soon after spending blood in Arabia.

E: Bonus reminder that we actually lost to the original Mongol invasion, and were only spared the Mongol yoke bc they then decided they liked us and never invaded with a CB for Tibet proper. This war would have no such get-out-of-jail-free clause.

No. I want to turn the whole map orange too, but invading China is a struggle even without a Golden Age. Let's let Arabia and our home levies recover, maybe get a couple more tributaries, and wait until China goes back to normal.
