Mao? Sorry lad, chose Chiang this time. He looks like a good guy.

/sarcasm.

Then why did you say China when you chose to play as greater Taiwan?

You got me to revist the mod and starting in the Fire Nation bookmark (or the first one with the FN in it, the one where the Islands are still fractured) I have gone to unite almost all the islands save for a few spots. Then I plan on invading the Southern Air Temple and Southern Water Nation before taking on the Earth Nation. Maybe the other Air and Water tribes.

I'm gonna go the path of Sozin when I next get the chance. Still working on uniting the islands fully, I started in the very first start date...

So you are going to unite the Fire Nation, take the Air Nomads, then the Water Tribes and then the Earth Kingdom? Good plan, worked well for Sozin before the Avatar kicked the shit out of him. I don't hink the Avatar can do that in the mod tho so yeah, have fun.

I have tried to do the Earth King in the earlier start dates but taking back the Kingdom one province at a time seems....daunting to say the least.

Yeah, pretty much. I did call the avatar to put down a peasant revolt at one point, just to see what it did. I don't recommend it unless you need it; tanked my taxes. I still make bank, though.
Also, benders are OP get as many as possible. I've currently got 1000 firebenders in my retinues. I wanna see how good armor is, but that'll take time...

Looks quite interesting actually. I'm eager to see what the final product will be like.

Wiz is going to be showing it off what it currently looks like in today's Twitch stream. Should be interesting.

Tis indeed interesting, and could be a good choice to make warfare a bit more fleshed out than it currently is.

It's so much better than a Sim City game and therefore has more depth to it. A bit harder to get the grasp of.

I think your conclusion on the wrong side of that "therefore". But, an I'm going off SimCity 4 here, I'm hesitant to say Skylines has more "depth".

Was meant to post this before but it slipped my mind

The Ottomans have been completely fucked by me and the rest of europe. In my last war i took tripoli from them to get a foot hold in africa, and then via events they were forced to release Bulgaria and Albania, thus ceding all the land they held in europe bar their capital. I then promptly invaded Bulgaria and annexed most of it, now its just a little sliver of land on the coast.

This was before my latest war with Prussia where i took upper Silesia from them and humiliated them. Also the dutch annexed belgium, didnt even see it happen, it was just gone one day :lol:

I like the idea of stationary defences actually being worthwhile, but I'm not exactly enthused about not having my choice of FTL.

Oh they will still be there it seems.

Just no idea what could be on the other side.

Being able to jump between galactic arms from the start was nice.

Oh, I'm glad they're still there in some form or another, but I'll miss the FTL style nonetheless.
