First an introduction.
Well, after some failed AAR due to problems with my old computer, i return to the fray with this project that i have quite advanced and for which i have read enough.
Long ago i bought the expansion that includes an invasion from the West by the Aztecs, the problem is that it is not historically viable an invasion by the Aztecs to Europe if the Vikings came much further north, etc., etc.
I always wanted to use the Sunset Invasion DLC, and reading around I found a theory about the probable Phoenician colonization in Brazil. After reading a lot about it and about all the rich history sorrounding the phoenicians (I recommend Carthage Must Be Destroyed: The Rise and Fall of an Ancient Civilization from Richard Miles, it was an entertaining read) I decided to create a scenario where the invasion comes from the west and are the descendants of the settlers who arrived to Brazil those who return to take revenge after almost thousand years living in America, the invasion is justified as part of a religious belief similar to Manifest Destiny.
I'm a great admirer of phoenician history after all.
Choosing the religion of the invaders was complicated in the beginning, the same with the culture, the problem with the Aztecs are the names, they are not representative of what I wanted to achieve with the history ... and I could not arrive to choose a religion that had relationship with other faiths of the game and made it easier to create alliances and marriages, so I decided to use the Karaism as it does not have many special mechanics (like the Crusades) or alliances with other peoples (like playing with some variant of Christianity) ..
On the way I tried to create my own mod, but I failed. Maybe im too lazy to get a mod done, maybe i need a better guide, maybe i was hoping to make it easy.
Then after a long creative process and a lot of testing i decided to use some mods to facilitate the process of creating this story, the culture will be Nahua and I will start with some event troops, resources and some boats.
All the images are property of their respective owners and all that stuff. English is not my primary languaje.
