They don't necessarily need to come from you.

I do hope you get around the problem with the Chandelas. :)

The True Pacific Empire

Hey all, welcome back to The True Pacific Empire playthrough feturin' Malaya, we are now at turn 200. Let's begin with the minimaps.

Turn 100:

Turn 125:
Image

Turn 150:
Image

Turn 175:
Image

Turn 200:
Image

Where to begin with? There's just so much to talk about, it's probably better to talk about all the wars individually.


Communist China - Joseon Dynasty

The first war to happen in this game that I know of. It's impressive how the first war in the Old World began after turn 100, it usually happens before that mark, but oh well, Communist China was the first civilization to eliminated from this game, unfortunately these guys haven't even settled a second city when Joseon decided to attack. Also, let me address this right now, this Joseon civilization is the same Korea civ that is available on the Steam Workshop, I just changed its name in the XML files because I felt Joseon was more correct and also because I think it's a cool name.

Nubia - U.A.E.

I don't have much to say about this one but Nubia apparently only attacked the Emirates because of 1 city, apparently they only want to expand further into Asia as they would later declare war on the Qara Qoyunlu, a war that has begun a few turns after the one against the U.A.E. and is still goin' on until now...

Russia - Timurids

Putin's Russia is apparently the most expansive Russian civ out there and I like this. They were pretty successful in the first campaign I commented about here and they may once again be successful dependin' on how things go in a certain other war.

Sibir - Nenets

*Sigh* at this point I'm actually kinda bored of always havin' Sibir in my games but at the same time I still have to see them be completely defeated by another AI civilization, unfortunately the Nenets failed to do so as Sibir took away their two cities.

Botswana - Betsimisaraka

Betsimisaraka, oh my god why does every Malagasy name have to be complicated or even unpronounceable sometimes... Betsy was doin' well in Africa with their island bein' fully occupied by themselves and havin' two cities in mainland Africa, Botswana would soon end their success. The cool thing is that Lesotho and Burundi would avenge Betsy's loss with a full attack on Botswana later. The uncool thing is that none of them would return Betsy's cities to its original owner.

Malaya - Demak

My first war of this campaign, started only after turn 125, and that's because the only real viable way for me to do this was to wait for the first ranged ships of the game, but now I have them and Demak was only the first victim of my ambition.

Yamana - Min

I don't know what really happened here but apparently Min was so scared of Yamana that they decided to give them a city in a peace deal, sometimes I wish cities couldn't be traded in these, or that at least only cities that border your territory or that you have taken enough health of could be traded like this.

Ramkhamtrols's Fall

This is what you get when Burma, Qin and Min all declare war on Siam. The Reason I call Siam's leader by that name is that he's such a troll in my non-TSL games with his forward settlin' and citadels, he once settled not only 1 but 3 cities really really close to my territory, and now 3 civilizations have teamed up together to take him down.

Malaya and Papua - Australia

My first joint war of the game, and this was actually Papua's idea as they weren't really happy with Australia eliminatin' the Kimberley, a civ that I didn't even get to meet, at least their cities are now under my dominion.

By the way Australia's startin' location this time around is in Perth instead of Sydney or Canberra.


Ethiopia - Burundi

Ethiopia losin' this one really came out of nowhere, they are one of the best civilizations to play defensively, in TSL maps they are protected by rough terrain like hills and jungles, and they even built the Great Wall wonder in this game, and yet Burundi somehow managed to go through all this. By the way, this wasn't a fast war, Ethiopia's second city, Harar, flipped between both nations multiple times.

Russian-Evenki Coalition

This is what I was talkin' about Russia earlier. This is a war between Russia and the Evenks versus the Kalmar Union, the Vainakhs and Sibir. And Russia's future depends on how much the Evenks can distract Sibir because Kalmar and the Vainakhs have already damaged the Russian military quite a bit, luckily for Russia the Isle of Man decided to take advantage of the Kalmar Union's weakness as they declared war on Kalmar but only on Kalmar.

Joseon Coalition

Oh well, the surroundin' nations weren't too happy with the fall of Communist China as they all decided to go for a coalition against Joseon, this started a few turns after Mao's fall and until now they all occasionally declare war on Joseon, these nations include: Burma, Qin, Min, Yamana, Nepal, Magadan, Yakutia and the Chukchi. They constantly ask me to join in too.

---------

And that's it, these were all the wars that I could remember. Of course there were more but some were pretty irrelevant like Macedon declarin' war against Ethiopia. Here are the Info Addicts and other info screens for this part.

Thanks to the fact nobody close to me has founded a religion and that I took one of the bonus that makes the religion spread further I'm able to for the first time be in first place in score so early on.

I hope the Mughals do well in this campaign, if you don't attack then.

These all would be interesting but the Indian civilization that I would most like to see is just an India not led by Gandhi. :lol:

Don't worry, I don't have any plans of expandin' into Mughal territories. :)


Now that you brought this up, I would like to know what civs you guys are rootin' for in my campaign.

Don't know why but I also would like to see the Mughals doing well in this.

And I'd like to see a strong Cascadia in North America but I know they're in the way for your main objective.

Cascadia is a very cool possible proposed country located within the west coast of North America. And with the recent events of the world I'd say they now have a very good reason to leave the Union. :P

The UAE, although it will be really hard (pause) for them to be able to make a comeback, they could attack the Qara Qoyunlu.

Both the UAE and the QQ are at the bottom of the military manpower rankings Miao provided us, and for the UAE to attack the QQ they would either need to embark their units and squeeze in into [whatever demonym is used for QQ] lands or get open borders with Nubia, which attacked them before. I don't see this happening with emperor difficulty AI but a human player could probably pull it off.

Since everyone is picking one, I'll go with Betsimisaraika or whatever is the name of that civilization from Madagascar.

My opinion on people showing off their games and AI battles definitely changed over the time, at least for the games with true starting locations.
