PurpleXVI posted:I know that in EU4, most, if not all, Muslim nations at start get pretty heavily hobbled with a tech penalty due to being from a "worse" tech group than, well, Western Europe, really. Are there any similar penalties or imbalances in CK2? The tech group system in EU4 was mostly retired in favor of the less quasi-racist system of Institutions, which while making the actual historical course of things likely no longer makes western Europeans intrinsically superior. Edit: Whatever else may happen, Galind will always deserve kudos for killing two Kings and a Queen. Shame the Portugese King had the good sense to flee.

 New Taifas There can be no rest while the infidels yet hold so much power within Iberia! However, once our position is stronger the stories of Mansa Aboubakri's so called "New World" must be investigated.

Actually, that raises an important question. Perhaps I missed it in Grand Vizier Hashim's writeups, but I did not see any mention of how the ruling faction changes. Do we, as Wali al-Anderson has attempted, simply defect at a whim between updates? Or will the Grand Vizier call for a formal realignment at regular intervals?

I should hope the Ulema have the good sense not to go through with this proposal. Our Alliance with the Celts is a pivotal resource. We've earned favors by coming to their aid, bloody though it was, it would be foolish to deny ourselves the ability to call in those favors when we need them. And I fear we shall need them. The Taifas are right about one thing, if France gets a foothold in Iberia it will be a dark omen for all of us.

Frionnel posted:As useful as i think our alliance with the celts is, i'd rather we Merchants don't waste one of our actions trying to combat the Ulema, and instead use it for more useful things, like all the other proposals. There are other countries to ally, and ducats to be earned. That presumes there is an action more useful for our second policy than combating the Ulema's madness. I say there is not.

We will need the Ulama in time. If we are to make anything of former Christian holdings in Iberia, we must convert the populace to the true faith of the last Prophet. It will just be a nest of vipers otherwise.

WilliamAnderson posted:The first one doesn't even direct colonization. Also, it's all about the cash from trade, the land is secondary. There is no money for us in the north. William is simply factually correct in this. I'd forgotten the precise trade node map, but it is true that getting anything out of North America would be monumentally more effort than Central America/Carribean/South America. We really have no incentive to gently caress with it.

I, Qaptin Al-Blivious, propose that we move the capital to Tulaytullah, and take steps to develop it further as befitting its status as the City of Sultans! We cannot govern from a position of weakness, and while Cadiz will always be in our hearts as the birthplace of the Jizrunids, may Allah bless them, Tulaytullah is the city befitting the times.

We will be resigned to be small when petty fools like you call for endless wars for the sake of your mad bloodlust, rather than taking advantage of peace to make ready. Do not abdicate your responsibilty by claiming you defer to the Sultan. You push for war upon our fellow Muslims - in the New World, no less - when we are surrounded by enemies! Our very capital was burned, and yet you still clamour for blood... What did "fellow muslims" mean to Morocco when they allied with nothing short of an existential threat to Al-Andalus? Your sentiments are not shared you fool and the naivete of it will doom us all!

Hashim posted:There isn't a Muslim reformation, but there is the potential for the Sunni world to be divided into two big blocs - the Armenian and the Andalusi - later on down the road. Depends on a few things happening though, like us refusing to bend to the Vakhtani Caliphate. Obviously what we need is custom events to form our own weird Muslim/Christian of the Sikh syncreticist movement, assuming we stay the tolerant course.
