Timurid Invasion of France!!??

[anonymouswolfm]

The Timurids are coming - to France!?? Is this even possible?? Never seen the AI do this before and probably will never again.

Needless to say I was very shocked. I didn't get the Aztec invasion DLC and so to console me the AI decided to give me a Timurid invasion instead...

I'm not sure how to look up the files - how do you see the code which determines which target the Mongols pick/are more likely to pick? How on earth would they want to attack a place they probably don't even know exists and is thousands of miles away?

Well... They have quite a hike, you have plenty of time to prepare.

Did France have a random territory out in the Steppes that went de jure France? I've seen that happen before. They declare war to take the bordering territory, but because of how invasions work they end up with the whole kingdom.

It won't if it is one of the magical attrition-free Doomstacks!

Weirdly that kinda makes sense for me. It feels like the barbarian invasions and huge resettlement of people from the early middle ages.
But of course ingame it makes no sense. It reminds me of the Rome: Total War expansion and how crazy things could get. It'd be nice if they made something along those lines.

Yes it is.
