AGC-EEP Tag Discussion

[Garbon]

The old discussion thread was sort of large already with old conversations / I'm not sure why we didn't just have a new thread for discussions before.

Anyway, this thread is for discussing tag usages / reservations for hypothetical states.

Tags currently reserved for hypothetical states:
Updated 8/30/06

ALT Tlaxcala
AMG Armagnac
ANH Angoche
BUK Bukhara
CRG Moghulistan
KRN Cilli
PEU Peru
PIC P'urepecha
PRT Oirat
SEI British East India Company
SLO Sofala
U30-U35 reserved for Japanese breakaway states
VOL Dutch East India Company
ZAP Mixtec
ZEE Zanzibar

 

[Garbon]

If no one has any objections, I'd like to propose tag reservations for the following states (that have been proposed many a time but several of them never got tags):

Ethiopian:
Kefa
Dawaro
Bale
Shewa

Zanj:
Sofala
Zanzibar

Mesoamerica:
Tlaxcala (only this one for now, as I don't have enough time at the moment to sort through the old thread and assess the validity of all those one provinces minors)

Also, should we remove the MAA tag? Currently its still a revolter.

On the new map, Georgia might need two more tags - for Kartli and for the princedom of Samtskhe.

I think we should stay away from that discussion at the moment. That just opens a whole large can of worms that I think would be best to stay away from until we've actually adopted a new map.


Also I forgot:

It'd be nice to have a tag for Moghulistan the partner in crime to Uighuristan (which is what Chagatai would be re-named to).

YOR and LAN I hope are still reserved for civil war states.

 

[unmerged(29041)]

The opinion of an ample majority (5 votes to 1) in the Spanish forum is that it is inappropriate to use the CAT tag for the Spanish civil war of 1705-1715 during the Spanish war of succession of 1701-1713 as I had proposed (guess who lost). There is ample precedent with the wars of religion in France, and the civil wars of England. I would like to temporarily reserve a tag, while we further discuss the issue.

If only those prefixed three letter combinations are available, I propose SHA (Spanish Habsburgs grand Alliance).

 

[unmerged(40707)]

I'm afraid SHA is not available. See here (post #9).

HSA could fit.

 

[unmerged(29041)]

Both HSA and SHA are free in AGCEEP according to that post. I suppose in vanilla SHA are the shawnee.

 

[Garbon]

Okay I reserved the following tags as follows:

ALT Tlaxcala
BEA Bale
CMG Dawaro
HSA Spanish Hapsburgs Grand Alliance (if you've already coded using SHA let me know)
KRE Kefa
SHA Shewa
SLO Sofala
ZEE Zanzibar

 

[Garbon]

Oh and Moghulistan was given tag - CRG

 

[unmerged(2456)]

how many are left? i still would like the use of tags for Japan and Ryukyu islands.

We have 36 although perhaps about 30ish if we get the new American states. Of course, it was always going to be somewhat of a fight / a tight fit for the amount of tags you want for Japan.

 

[Garbon]

I don't know how I forgot it, but I'd also like to put in a request for a tag for Angoche. It was one of the most important city states south of Kilwa (as it controlled a bunch of city states under it in a sort of vassalage) and is one of the few states that was quite competent in fighting the Portuguese.

 

[Svantevid]

I hope to use KRN tag for Cilli. Putting this here just in case it's missed under the Krain topic.

Its not been unnoticed, I'm still waiting for the explanation as to why Cilli needs as tag.

 

[Norrefeldt]

I'll question (and have done so before) the Ryukyu islands, but not here. Before someone ask for the Maldives, I'll question that too, on the same grounds as Ryukyu

I was thinking that we shouldn't have the Maldives on the new map.

Well, one never knows...

Because I'm doing events connected with it? (historically, it existed only for about 20 years, but I'd like to make a fantasy extension of it)

An explanation of why it needs a tag, is like providing the information about why it should exist in the mod.
