- Vijay attack on Gujarat was a strong play. There isn't space for so many players in India, so it was kill or be killed, and given the tech disadvantage he had to time it well. Alliance with Pasai makes total sense as they have separate spheres of expansion, but close enough to help each other.
I bring the thunder to the thunderdome.
If anyone is going to be able to throw a monkey-wrench into the Byzantine works, it's going to have to be Vijayanagar, which can into Bharat, and then might team up with either Ming or Transoceania (as Jake loves to call Groogy), or both, having most of the Indian sub-continent consolidated and developed. I suspect that KJ won't let that happen...
Thanks for the vote of confidence . This is essentially my intention. I have no hostile intent towards Groogy or Ming, they're my natural allies against Persia/Byzantium
