What is the best country to play as if I intend to conquer all of Africa...as an African nation?
 
I honestly didn't consider that because of the large amount of land they have which isn't in Africa....good Idea though.

I'll probably use Egypt then.
 
Zulu is fun and you get sphered by the UK, which speeds up your westernization. Portugal likes to attack you for dumb reasons, like Cut Down to Size, though. It would be wise to keep your relations with them positive so they don't get free CBs from events.

It's virtually impossible to stop France or Germany from colonizing all of Western and Northern Africa as them though.
 
Was considering that as well....but might be weird to have "South Africa" spread across all of Africa.
Especially if your territory isn't continuous, then you'd get "South African Africa" :D
 
Transvaal ain't bad either, just go for the +life rating techs as fast as possible and you'll get quite a big chuck of Africa. And it'll be easy to take the Portuguese and unciv lands. Just make sure you ally Britain.
You'll have easy time with economy once you discover the 2 gold mines from your starting provinces. (though not as easy as back in vanilla Vic2)
 
I had some epic results with militaristic Zulu.
 
I suppose I'll eventually try an Oranje game with AHD. It'll be harder with some of the gamey elements being nerfed, that's for certain.

Transvaal is more fun IMO.
 
Best game Ive ever played as an African Nation was in PDM.

Super challenging and fun! I cant to try in again in PDM for AHD.

Who did you start as? I started as Sokoto (guessing by your borders you did too). I agree, very enjoyable. It's fun as an unciv to beat back the European menace from the coasts.
 
What does PDM stand for?
