Hooray for attrition!
How many Chinese brigades is that? I make it 38, with a nominal strength of 114,000. The worries about attrition seem well founded.
AAR in progress
Yet this will go onward the same: the Yamato Destiny - Continuation of the last AAR in Victoria 2. Last updated 17th October 2012
Completed AAR
The Yamato Destiny: A Japan HTTT AAR
38 brigades sounds about right. Kashgar province, to the north of my mountains, can support just 2,000 soldiers of mine. Assuming the Chinese get more support as its owners (is it three times as much? I don't remember), that still kills off 15% of all Chinese troops per month until they reach a pathetically small sustainable number. And I didn't lure them to attack right away...
Good to have you on board, sactwu and SiikFajitas!

I played up to about 1900. I civilised by the early 1860s, and industrialised like mad, but couldn't get beyond 9th in the rankings due to lousy prestige.Originally Posted by Selzro
Fantastic! Wars with China tend to drag on and become long and bloody affairs, but you have nice terrain to defend from.

Fighting China early may be a good thing if You can hold the mountains. They'll come at you in vast waves and take massive attrition and since most will not have leaders you'll be able to kill large numbers of them and Get lots of prestige and Warscore. So it'll help westernisation.

The Solution to all the worlds problems is utterly simple. We should set up all government so they run like an Episode of Yes Minster. At least that way the politicians will be so busy fighting the government that they will not have time to invade other countries. Equally it will mean that countries will be well run the half of the time which is about an improvement equal to half the time in the amount of time a country is well run. What could ever go wrong.
Hi, I've been away for the past few days and now I'm a bit ill, but since I'm back home I'll try to keep up my updates to one every day or two, provided my fever doesn't get any worse. Thandros is spot on with the strategy.

Those 6000 taunting men... are they french? Do they say the enemy's mothers were hamsters and that their fathers smelled of elderberries?
All praise the great, benevolent yet malevolent King Pinecone, killer of threads and slaughterer of many bacon pasties!
Must've been 6,000 spartans....or juts 6,000 really pissed of sikh's

It's not so much the 6,000 taunters as the 18,000 reinforcements under Ranjit Singh who show up once each battle commences.
They've resorted to taunting since it became apparent that the Chinese soldiers are too illiterate to read the signs the vizier used last time (well spotted, Tanzhang (譚張))...
