[Groogy]

Weeell *beep*

 

[Shumpitostick]

First! (Sorry couldn't resist)
Anyway that's great. Are you planning on developing another expansion in this one or just patches and finishing WoN?

 

[mwyeoh]

Will you finish uploading the last season on youtube first before this one begins?

 

[Avernite]

Well, if Wiz and ForzaA win again you guys should be really ashamed

I am betting on Yonaz or Witch-King, this time around

No this time it will be me!:ninja:

 

[Wizzington]

No this time it will be me!:ninja:

At least you should be able to get Gondar earlier this time. Make it your capital.

 

[nephilim2k]

If Peterskager wins, I will be surprised, especially as Hansa!

Goosecreature could win, Japan is isolated, got Asia to dominate, could happen if Westernisation doesn't cripple Japan!

 

[Groogy]

At least you should be able to get Gondar earlier this time. Make it your capital.

At last this time you will have a proper nation like the Kingdom of Denmark and not some made up nation like Archudchy of Austria!
You should learn from me and start speaking properly.

For konge og fædreland

 

[ForzaA]

Well, if Wiz and ForzaA win again you guys should be really ashamed

Well.. certain people here in the office [*cough* office bullying, I tell you *cough*] threatened to organise an alliance against me before I had even picked a country..
So I picked Portugal, so that at least it will be quick

[actually, Wiz and I will coop either POR or DAN, depending on which one lives, and come in third ]

 

[unmerged(1823)]

Wonder if my Bohemia will survive me being in a management meeting all day

I learned all my Danish from this educational video:

[Chevaresqye]

I place my bet on you Wiz. Your charisma will bring the whole world under your feet.

 

[Avernite]

[actually, Wiz and I will coop either POR or DAN, depending on which one lives, and come in third ]

The scary thing is... you probably would manage it, too!

 

[Goosecreature]

I wouldn't expect too much out of Japan... I tried a few test games (never played as Japan before), and in three of those I failed horribly when my daimyos revolted and my army was crushed. The fourth time I did better and actually managed to win against my rebelling vassals, although I was heavily in debt. I'm impressed that Rufus managed to unite Japan as quickly as he did in the previous game.

My plan is to spend the first several sessions watching the percentage slowly tick up as I diplo-annex my vassals, while praying to the ancestors that they won't rise up in revolt. At least not until I'm ready to deal with them.

I also don't expect to be alone in Asia for very long. We're bound to lose players in Europe as people expand, and at least some of them will likely end up playing Asian nations in future sessions.

You should have gone with my suggestion
Daimyo all the way!

 

[KaiserJohanHome]

Why dont you have a multiplayer session in which all you play as a daimyo and make war in japan? That would be entertaining

 

[A_Spec]

There aren't 25 Daimyo's.

 

[Servancour]

There aren't 25 Daimyo's.

But that's why we have Sengoku, no?

 

[Rufo]

2 people coop as each Daimyo + the Shogunate makes 24. :laugh:
