but I'm not so sure about Jain as its a pacifistic religion.

The Manifest Destiny CB doesn't have its own flag-check for Jain/Pacifism like the Holy War CB does, but does have the 'is_holy_war' flag (as does Holy War). I think that means it has the dynamics of a Holy War (i.e. other leaders of the religion can join in the party), but that a Jain Seljuk for example could still use it (and not normal Holy Wars). I can't see Borjigin in the file but it's definitely valid for Seljuk and the Timurids.

My Wendish empire. I started as the chief of Lesser Poland I think. I am still trying to reform the faith, but these holy places are too far apart. -.- When I eventually get the 3 holy sites, reforming the faith would be pointless anways, as I am a roflstomper already.

By Tyr, is that the Idrisids in Hispania? I haven't played a single game so far where they aren't roflstomped by the Ummayads or Aghlabids a few years in.

Wait for it :p in a century's time, it won't be so quiet any more :p.

You'll probably get through fine, though, if you're large enough and have good internal stability.

Finally got around to conquering the Catholics. :laugh:

Ilkhanate conquered Persia, converted to Nestorian, then proceeded to implode from all its Muslim vassals. Arab Caliphate at one point was a contiguous blob from Egypt up to Greece. There's a random Monotheism Prince-Bisophric of Frisia on the North Sea, Venice is the capital of the Merchant Empire of Bulgaria, which at one point controlled all of Scandinavia (And there's a Sunni Sultanate of Bulgaria on the coast of the Black Sea that's independent).

Persia's just a mess, especially with religion.

Working on conquering France and England before the game ends. :laugh:

So i was playing as East Anglia and this... happened

DJN7tNl.png


Lick my feet petty mortals!... to be fair though many people complain that this is the hardest start.. it was actually the easiest game i've yet had. Borrow money, expel jews, recruit mercs wait for allies.. Walk over and gather Said allies.. boom 11k stack.. Attack Ivar the boneless directly, or lure him into a river crossing.. Boom! win.. then just pick on jorvik for a few years.. preferably in ways that end his brother alliances

Are all of the other Slavic states of your dynasty? Or did you plant them using non-dynasty members?


Finland I released once they were Slavic. Poland & Carpathia are from my Dynasty and the rest is the work of the AI as well as some claims that I pushed & Marriages (Denmark & Sweden)

Start as Wessex, We are in 995. Crusades will be...interesting. (Obviously, I'm the deep red in Europe, not the deep red in Asia. It's hard to tell the difference between me and Poland on the map, alas)

I think it's a rather fast start, no ?

The ruler following the one of this screenshot spent 50 years fighting almost constatly, annexating the Baléares, the entire Al-Andalous, what was left of Poland, three quarters of Lithuania, what was left of Denmark, half of Sweden and Norway, a third of Hungary, a quarter of Italy, Kingdom of Jerusalem and two duchies of Egypt.

But conquering ONE country from West Francia took three wars.

My thirty years old monarch with a Genius son have a long reign of treshing his way across the Med ahead. (The obession to get clean borders is expensive at long term, as Byzantium and Bulgaria have to be taken down one county at the time)

Also, the damn Arabian Empire, despite being stuck at 100% decadence for two decades and being completely crashed by Britannia on a recurring basis (the current Sultan, around 70 years old, lost two Djihads and two Crusades against Britannia as well as six holy wars) is still experimenting perfect calm....
