Ha. In my current 1.05 Venice GC, the AI China is at worse than -3000 VP :D

North African nations, as were said before, are a lot of fun. Go with one of them. It'll give you a good game with a fairly solid challenge. And you'll be close to Europe to watch the action so you don't get too bored.

I've read this thread carefully as I'm also going to start a new GC. It seems the Northafrican countries are interesting. Has anyone experience playing some Indian state like Delhi or so? Is it interesting?

Delhi's okay, has a few revolt events, but then again I haven't played them for more than a century. It's fun to rub elbows with Timmy (nickname I give to the Timurids)/The Mughals.

Beware Vijayanagar's revolt events!

I have a small question for Charles II: Do you actually play all these countries together in a single game or in seperate games after resaving?
I didn't know was possible to do the former:How do you do that?
Did i misunderstand?

Speaking from my experience with Ethiopia...not too bad. Once you crush the Nubians, try to push to the Med and grab Alexandria (good luck with the Mams and Turks :D)

Crush the Nubians? More like Diploannex.

Can't say the same for the Zanj to the south.

I play each nation in a separate GC. I play ten years with one nation, then the same with the next nation, and so on. You get the picture ;)

Yep, got the point: thanx!

Did you try to play like that every majors (the 6 biggest)? Shouldn't be a kind of fun to play France and then to switch to England :) etc..
this could lead to potentially interesting situations... if you fairplay all countries following long-term strategic plans: It could even lead to the actual historical situation
:D

btw, wondering: does smby know if it's somekinda possible to play two or more countries at the same time? :confused:
