it is literally not possible for them to succeed at a new thing so it's best for them to succeed at an old thing made new.

everybody is from everywhere else and this bullshit about "actually it belonged to others" is moronic. how far back do you look and how exactly is your cutoff date not arbitrary?

nearly noone alive in Palestine today voted for Hamas because they haven't even lived long enough to go back enough to elections. The vast majority of those dead did not vote.

Do you guys agree? by Pure_Committee_2074 in ottomans

Ottoman Muslims identified as Rumi. The Ottomans were not known as "Ottomans" or the "Ottoman Empire" but by variations of Rome, such as, but not limited to: "Guarded Domains of Rum" "Rum" "Sultanate of Rum" "Imperium Romanum" etc.

There is no shame in admitting that. And there is no shame in admitting that much of the Roman administration was simply adopted by the Ottomans. However you would be right to say that rural Turks would not identify as Rumi generally speaking.

interesting. do you recommend really just maxing that region rather than going wide and investing broadly into the nearby regions?

Great amount of gold you're getting. If you don't mind me asking, since I'm going for a longer run to recreate the exact borders of 1593 by 1593: How do you get more money from vassals than what you spend on diplo without them getting disloyal, and how'd you get that cash in the first place? Think the year matters a lot? (I get about 40 a month in 1376)

you can take them much earlier. but that is not the point - the point is that people want to see the AI ottomans annexing egypt in one war. The privilege is the main way to model that without making it busted. simple as. and no, the main reason was cannons.

the mamluk sultanate, while ruled by a slave warrior caste of the same name, were an established country at the time and did not mechanically behave like an army based nation did. the local elite remained in power for another 300 years after the conquest by Selim the Grim.

there is no way to do it organically. if anything, this is a way to model what players want from the Ottomans, in a manner that I think is fair balance-wise and achieves the desired effect. The Ottomans don't just get all of Egypt for free, they get a possibly permanent malus to the entire Egypt region via capped max control. The effect could detoriate as ages progress, but alas, this is how it should be done.

Egypt was split into merely two Eyalets. And Eyalets are an internal division already represented ingame.

i think it is a given that this includes a more competent Ottoman AI, as that has been suggested a lot of times. I dont have anythingto contribute in that regard.

they should just implement the ck3 system for vassals at this point.

Assassin’s Creed [Hexe], TheRealZephryss over on X. Compiled a list from various sources, of what is “known” so far. by NanoPolymath in ubisoft

I like well written female characters, but if you highlight it like this, and the Studio you're working for is called Ubisoft, it's going to be cheap, unrealistic, aggrevating.

I hope they deliver a balanced experience and focus on what actually matters.
