Just thought I'd boost this topic...;)

I'm playing as Muscowy at the moment, and right now (in 1498), Ak Koyunlu is beating the crap out of every one of it's neighbours. The Kaliphate and the Timurid Empire are all but gone, some Turkish minors are completely gone, so Ak Koyunlu is now concentrating on the Ottoman Empire. In one single war, Ak Koyunlu managed to conquer 10 Ottoman provinces, before receiving 6 in a peace agreement.

Ak Koyunlu now has a whopping 21 provinces...:wacko:

no screenshot but when i finally got some european maps around 1550 i found an ai albania which controlled around 15 provinces from istra to thrace the ottoman empire was no more with its turkish provinces contolled by poland and scotland.

Awesom, wish it would be my game I would have colonized it being Aztecs or such a thing.

What did you do to the Europeans?

In my current game as Russia I have a 12-13 province Brittany bordered by 12-13 province Lorraine with a 1 province France in between! The French have some colonies in Newfoundland but other than this Paris is all they have left, its about 1720 at the moment.

To add some new spice to this thread:

What I really love about EU II is that there is no single nation, which consistently over- or underperforms when you compare it to real history.

Sometimes even a Sweden collapses or an Ottoman conquers the Mamluks, Persians and Hungarians.

You get divergences from historic facts, but always in different directions. Gotta love it.

Now, back to the search of overgrown AI nations (Screenshots! I want screenshots!)

This is from my current game as Navarra. Austria has been wiped out by Hungary, and France is almost out (because of me), and the absence of the two super powers has made a very interesting situation in central Europe.

This is definately the largest Luxembourgh I've seen, and I don't think I've seen Kleves that big either.

Pommern is also quite large (6 provs.) but they were even larger before the swedes, the dutch and the poles started to pick on them.

although it is clearly off topic but harvard did you write this:

"The path of the righteous Member is beset on all sides
By the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men.
Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and good will,
Shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness,
For he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children.
And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger
Those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers.
And you will know my name is the Admin when I lay my vengeance upon you."


either way....I just have to say its awesome. :)







btw. I'm too lazy to put up a screenie but in my AoN game russia was 1 1/2 times larger than its present day's boundaries. Spreading in all directions.

They should allow images to be uploaded to the forum host so you wouldn't need to host them yourself. I have an interesting picture of a huge Poland to show but I can't host it anywhere. I posted about it like a couple of months ago but people started to accuse me for faking the screenshot. Now this thread proves them wrong because I wasn't alone with a huge AI nation. Eat that you people, you know who you are!
