How is World Conquest defined? Literally wiping out every other nation?
Yes. I'm not sure if it involves also colonizing every province (so that every province is owned by you).
How is World Conquest defined? Literally wiping out every other nation?
I'm pretty sure that you decide that. Some call a WC eradicating everyone else on the map, some call a WC colonizing every province, some call a WC colonizing every province and converting all the provinces to your religion etc.Yes. I'm not sure if it involves also colonizing every province (so that every province is owned by you).
That said, the proper game (after the surviving period), starts when you get your first core province somewhere else. That's already -50 years from the time you have for a WC..
Is it impossible as Maldives as well?
Is it impossible as Maldives as well?
Nope. In a HTTT game I tried, I got into a PU with some medium-sized nation and used it to conquer a lot of stuff.
Are maldives capable of forming Hindustan? If they are, It's definiatly not impossible in DW, as you get an obscene ammount of cores for forming that, making fast conquest even easier..
That's absolutely insane.
Low income and tiny forcelimits haven't stoped other OPMs, though. Granted, other OPMs are not islands and in Europe they tend to be surrounded by OPMs, but still. It's possible to expand as Riga, who only has one neighbour that is large and aggressive; Ryukyu has the advantage of not being threatened. WC, though, might be impossible.Your income will be less than 5 ducats a year and your forcelimit will be 3 or less. You can't conquer anything. You need cores.
A regular WC isn't impossible, you can stay under the BB limit as, say, France.

And, I suspect a WC without going over the BB limit is no longer possible, because you can no longer have three BB advisors at the same time.
Ryukyu is usually attacked within the first five years either by Korea or Ming.
also in DW? they have survived in all my games untill now.
Hmm, haven't been paying attention to it too much. Maybe things have changed.
