#Tolerance of the true faith eu4 series#

Renaissance is spreading through Oman, but I'll probably have to dev push next two institutions. Ming got another tributary in India after I annexed Bihar, so that's a bit annoying. Now I'll probably do nothing for about 10 years while getting next tech and admin ideas. I rushed Bharat as it gives me permanent claims and therefore big mana discounts on all of India. I'm still very far from able to challenge Ming in a fair war.Д¦ Old World Great Powers and their spheres.

Against all West Indian minors it was a series of stackwipes, and Ming got exhausted with the war and white peaced out. Ming sent one stack over, I had to fight them a few months before unlocking next sword tech. Right now I could go on a conquering spree, but I'll probably be better off spending next 1500 or so paper mana on admin tech 5 and first two admin ideas to get double discount. Ming's sphere and mine are fighting a lot. U-Tsang started another war against my tributary. Well, I had to milk it for all it was worth - getting 105% overextension in process, and having such mana shortage I only finished coring it all 7 years after annexation. Ming embarassingly ended up white peacing Hsenwi as well. Ming only sent limited forces, so it was more like 2:1 against me, which with tech advantage resulted in fairly one-sided war. Lan Na war ended, and I had decent shot at tech 5 before anyone else, so I just attacked Bihar. I planned to take advantage of their distraction, but another one of my tributaries got attacked by Ming's Lan Na. Fortunately Ming tried to force tribute on Hsenwi, who were allied with Ayutthaya and Mong Yang, and they were losing. I wanted to threaten Bihar for one province, but they'd have none of it.

War between U-Tsang and Nepal concluded really quickly. Post 2 - Originally published on Google+ on 09:10:18 UTC Nepal is at war with Garhwal, so they looked like a good target, especially if AI somehow ignored me.ДЇor now I'm blobbing rather slowly, but due to so many mid-tier powers having similar development, I jumped from 20th to 9th place already. I got a few strong allies, and a ton of minors as tributaries. This mix of religions and cultures sure helps with AE, but then hurts with unrest. If both of them leave me alone while I conquer India, this will be easy campaign. I'm mid-tier power stuck between Ming and Oman. I guess I could fight Ming, they're only 5x stronger than me. The first huge obstacle to my plans is that Bihar became Ming's tributary, and I need it to access last province I need to form Bharat. I was taking a break when Ming's tributary U-Tsang attacked my tributary Nepal. I got a ton of tributaries, to deliver me desperately needed manpower. Oman took Alexandria, so if it spreads there, it's just Baluchistan and then West India. Renaissance spawned in Alexandria, so maybe it's not completely hopeless. Then took Cuttack from Orissa and humiliated them for age bonus. Then I showed strength against Ava for some mana. So first war was conquest of Kamarupa, getting me first required province. I could stack that annexation cost discount with influence ideas for -45%, but that's wrong kind of campaign for it.

opener: -20% infantry cost, -15% cavalry cost.

Here are random ideas I got - nothing special: Her 6 year old relative rules in Orissa.Д«engal starts as 20th power with 143dev, and would actually just qualify for 8th Great Power in its 1350 borders, but Orissa gavelkinded and Bihar got good chunk of bordergore cleanup.ДЇor Bharat it starts with 7/10 needed provinces, requiring Koch from Kamarupa, Cuttack from Orissa, and Bundelkhand from Delhi (with Bihar standing on the way).

Current queen is 29 year old Devavati, 2/1/4, secretive, and obsessive perfectionist. After Oman's withdrawal, many of its minors fell, so India is now a mix of 4 religions, and 11 cultures in 4 culture groups, not counting some Khazars and Lithuanian Ceylon - which actually happened centuries before Oman got involved.Д«uddhist Bengal, ruled over by the ancient Pala dynasty, managed to avoid any conflict with Oman.

watch Europe burn - I'm hoping Spain and Russia appear (Great Britain can't as Anglo-Saxons can't form it)ДЇor some historical background - empire of Oman, offended by Hindu caste system, conquered South, Central, and West India from the Hindus, and setup variety of Jewish merchant republics and Jain feudal minors.

take administrative ideas first, maybe stay away from colonization for a change.

wreck Oman, take over all Indian Ocean trade.

trade node map edited so Oman, Constantinople, and English Channel are end nodes (not Genoa or Venice).

some hacks to make 'historical' events, missions, and decisions work (they're normally mostly disabled in converter games).

exported Oman CK2+ campaign (1000-1350), with some edits to cover missing century and inevitable bugfixes.
