Rebels without a pause - a Tribal AAR

FEEDBACK​

naggy - military tradition is the one thing I'm good for. Fighting rebels might not give war exhaustion or prestige but it does give tradition (at least in this version)

sprites - The rebels are a real pain. I'm constantly chasing rebel armies and trying to reclaim provinces. The WE does cause a few bad things to happen as well as a lot of inflation.

anweRU - You're right I don't need a TSC but with a 21 year Khan I'm going to get one

morningSIDEr - I assume the DOWs pour in because my war capacity is very low all the time.

GaiusC - In this patch one point of war exhaustion = one point of revolt risk. 18.26 WE means + 18.3 RR in every province. Revolt risk reduces tax...

Wolfhashat - Persia's had a funny few years they made a couple of gains when ganged but they lost them again - Persia's war exhaustion is still over 14 a couple of years later so they won't be a threat for a while.

Keinwyn - Funny you should say that...

Good to see you updating 'Shogun'

Malurous - I was determined I was going to get something out of all that! Kartli and Armenia really do make the frontier look better. Savour that picture it doesn't last (yes that is foreshadowing...)

naggy - I believe, Sir, you have the soul of an accountant!

Just keeping track of all the rebels is painful enough - I tab into Word and write down the details as each uprising occurs.

Oberkommando des Hordes sounds quite epic!

Glad someone spotted that - I had OKW in 'Audacity' but this OKH works well especially IIRC the Mongols were one of the few pre-modern armies to actually have a Staff function.

aldriq - Accepted culture is just a +1 improvement on revolt risk but it's good for manpower and tax as the non accepted penalty is -30%.

Summer Sundae - I always forget about it o

De Montfort is ten minutes from the town centre and Leicester's got all the usual stuff. I'm not of the opinion that there's anything particularly special there but I'm a miserable git

There's a large park next to the Hall and down the hill towards the Railway Station (on the way into the town centre) there's a group of curry houses - some are straightforwardly expensive but they tend to be pretty good.

Donfodio - I like the idea of new neighbours since this lot don't like me. But if I'm honest it's not them it's me :rofl:

Davout - I have no idea why the western Europeans are quite so keen on attacking me instead of more local stuff. Castile at least gets distracted in the near future. I've actually got a pretty high percentage of cores at the moment - something that will improve in the short term as I can't see me launching any wars with all this WE.

Angry_Norway - Not sure about tech - although the Ottomans are building Workshops. I want to westernise if I can although that's probably a century away.

I intend to fight by letting attrition chew up enemy forces - only Lithuania is a real problem there as they can invade a large part of my empire without difficulty.

blsteen - I really can't do much about the western europeans as i can't reach their homelands to hurt them. Also I can't risk moving troops that far from home.

Herbert - The plan is a new Mongol empire but it's not all going to plan!

Chapter Twenty One​

As 1477 starts I’m at peace but I have 18 points of war exhaustion – which would take a decade to clear in ideal circumstances. This would be a slow motion TSC. However, my Khan has been in the saddle 21 years so I expect I’ll have a TSC sooner rather than later. Revolt risk in my capital is 14% so tax revenue is appalling and I’m going to have to mint – probably three to four months a year. I’ve four rebel occupied provinces and ten revolts at the moment.

Tver revolts in January (Yaroslavl Nationalists)

Kaffa revolts in February (Greek Nationalists)

Idnakar revolts in March (Peasants)

Samara revolts in April (Peasants) as does Ryazan (Yaroslavl Nationalists)

Vyazam revolts in May (Orthodox Zealots)

Simbirsk (Peasants) and Archangelsk (Orthodox Zealots) revolt in July

Hungary sends a warning in August 1477. I really hope this doesn’t bring a DOW anytime soon as I’m losing provinces faster to the peasants than I can wipe out rebels.

Oops – 4th October 1477



I already have war exhaustion of 16.39 at the moment. At least this guy is military 8 so I should get a badboy limit.

To avoid confusing Tribal Succession Crisis rebels with devastating war exhaustion rebels I already had six occupied provinces and nine rebel armies.

The Tribal Succession Crisis



It could be worse I guess all those cores over the last few years have helped. Of course the extra 10% revolt risk for the next two years will be the real killer.

Right culture, right religion cored provinces are at 22.4 revolt risk. Kartli, the worst province, is 40.1.

The only plan I have right now is to ignore the Greek nationalists and let them eventually wander off into Ottoman territory.
