Rwanda - The Chosen Nation

[Duke of Wellington]

Grundius - It is good. When I tried this game for the first time I annexed all those four nations I vassalised in this one, in one go. Got lots of BB but it was fun annexing four nations before even 9 months of game had passed And all with only 3000 troops.

stnylan - Quite right, just giving the illusion to the others.

Rwanda's world with names​

Great job. Just saw this and read it. Will follow. And why is it only those 10 were chosen by Orisha?

 

[EvilSanta]

Kilwa seems to be really tough nut to crack. But Sesanti is such superman nothing can beat him.

 

[Dhimmi]

if i recall correctly this is the first real native african aar, give me more pls

 

[The Danish King]

DoW, what version are you playing? 'Cause my MyMap-AGCEEP Africa does not looking anything like yours.

Where can I get my hands on the same versions as yours?

 

[unmerged(17581)]

Strange. My MyMap looks exactly like that.

 

[Duke of Wellington]

The version i'm playing is the latest one. Its MyMap-AGCEEP 1.51. The earlier versions of MyMap were different which explains the variation.

 

[unmerged(21111)]

Good going.
Do you get to change religion later? Or is it Paganism for everyone you conquer?

 

[unmerged(49083)]

Great! The most unusual choices, Duke of Wellington. Just one comment though, is that maybe some events could be made.

"Contact with the white people"

a.) Stay as the true faith
b.) Adopt their religion (Catholic)

"Contact with the East Africans"

a.) Stay as the true faith
b.) Adopt their religion (Orthodox, like Ethiopia)

"Contact with the Muslims"

a.) Stay as the true faith
b.) Adopt Sunni'ism
c.) Adopt Shi'i

"Conflict over the religions"

(Trigger = "choice A in all events")

We have discovered many religions. What path shall we take?

Armageddon

War once again raised its ugly head over Rwanda. A mighty war it was to be. Between the rising righteous traditional African tribal Kingdoms and the heathen invaders Kilwa, Mombasa and Malindi. This was the war Sesanti had been preparing for ever since that first day he went to meet Orisha.

But far worse was to come Rwanda's way than war. It began not long after the war started. The sky began to fade in the middle of the day. The earth began to tremble then shake. The phenomenom grew stronger with each passing moment. Trees swayed and fell mountains crumbled. Fire erupted far into the sky. Sesanti was awestruck. His people panicked. The war was forgotten by all as they ran like terrified lambs for anything resembling safety. Was this some act of great Orisha? A punishment for being too slow? A blight to strike down the Muslim invaders that had gone wrong? Was it even the god of the Muslims?

But whatever it was it would not stop. The sky faded paler and paler. The Earth broke more and more. All becoming one. There was no border now between earth and sky. Gradually the sound of destruction too faded. The people faded. Sesanti was alone in a greyness. A greyness that was thickening. Becoming the only tangible thing. Silence all around now. Sesanti waited. Surely Orisha would speak to him now. But there came no voice. Instead Sesanti felt himself growing sleepy. He gazed down at himself. Before his very eyes he seemed to be fading. Was he seeing things? No he saw it now definitely a patch of the grey vivid and clear on his foot. It began to spread now. There was no pain. Only sleepiness. Sesanti was never aware of slipping into nothingness.

For those of you wondering what all that was I have bad news. I just bought myself a new computer over the weekend and in the confusion of shifting files between my computers I copied across the wrong EUII folder. This game and all its files have now been deleted into oblivion. I regret this a lot as I was very much enjoying this game and AAR. I guess the only good point is that I lost it early on before things went too far. I may start the game again or find another game to write an AAR on. Thanks to all those who followed this during it's all to brief life.

[EvilSanta]

Too bad, this was shaping to be one son of a aar.

 

[Farquharson]

Bummer! I agree this had a great potential, snuffed out so suddenly . Any chance you might start again with something similar?

 

[unmerged(49083)]

Can you do another Rwandan AAR with my suggestions?

 

[unmerged(21111)]

Ugh .
Maybe start over on the other side of Africa, or the southern tip? Although that would be harder than eastern Africa. Or perhaps those minors on the eastern Indian Ocean.

 

[Grundius]

Too bad. Fortunately, the Golden Horde survived!

 

[stnylan]

A great shame, to be sure.

 

[Kelvin]

Such a shame

This was shaping up to be one of the most interesting AARs I've ever read...

 

[unmerged(53612)]

Not cool

Always look the good side: You Have a new computer
And the Horde survived!

 

[coz1]

Well, you'll just have to load up another and start anew. This was quite good while it lasted.
