Ottoman Rush

[Ssharifi]

Ottoman

This scenario is supposed to have several different stories behind it. You can be the Ottomans trying to conquer Europe. You can be the Vikings, and you can be the rising power of Prussia.

The game is set during the year of 1520. the Ottomans are at their greatest extent and all that stands between them and the Pope is the Holy Roman Empire.

This is my first scenario and it took me two days to make, i hope you guys all like it, tell me what you thing and tell me about any problems. The game takes about 2 minutes to load so be patient, Thnx.

I suggest you play as England, or Prussia, or the Ottomans

*This is the second version. I made some key changes and deleted the first version. I suggest you download this one

First of all the Celts did not exist in the 16th century. Ireland was under British rule, and Scotland would be soon (im not sure if it would be better for it to be a part of england or seperate). And i don't believe the Ottomans ever controlled that much of Africa. and if Prussia and Brandenburg are going to separate Berlin should be in Brandenburg and Prussia's capital should be Konigsburg which is where you have Gdansk (which should be Danzig anyway). you also seem to have Bratislava (should be Pressburg) where Prague should be, Pressburg is right next to Vienna. and St. Petersburg did not exist until the early 18th century. Arhus, Stavagner, and Birka Aren't in Sweden, they need to be Karlstad, Malmo(danish at this time) and move Birka down and make it Kalmar. Northern Italy was Independent of the Holy Roman empire, and Sicily was and Sardinia were under the Control of Spain (I know iv gotten grilled for that one before) and Austria really needs to be a part of the Holy Roman Empire. other than that it looks pretty good, for a first scenario.

Also Prussia and Brandenburg were in this time united. Also Saxony and Brandenburg were parts of the Holy Roman Empire, while Prussia wasn´t.

Right i know that but i wanted a more diverse game play and i wanted it for players to fight for Prussia to be become a european power, while they can fight the Ottomans. As for england i wanted to give them an opponent instead of having to send ships to europe to fight.

 

[Ssharifi]

For sweden i just got way too tired to look at a map and put there actual cities in. The ottomans went all the way to the western parts of algeria and i just gave them maritania so they could attack spain. And as for bratislava, and st.petersburg, i just didnt know about that, srry

 

[Ssharifi]

So pretty much you can see that the game isnt year accurate but i think the game play is still pretty fun

 

[Johann MacLeod]

and Tallin was called Reval at this time.

 

[Ssharifi]

OK! OK I GET IT, THANK YOU! any comments on game play?

 

[Johann MacLeod]

well when you have inaccuracies people point them out, be prepaird for a lot more. its what people here do, its all in effort to make your scenario better. so far your lucky- Metacomet hasn't gotten to it yet

 

[MSTK]

Don't worry. You're supposed to take constructive criticism

 

[Ssharifi]

ye, but does anyone have any comments to the game play? like was a specific unit too hard to fight, or was a specific nation to hard to defend against?

 

[Al Zan]

Yes a Ottoman Game! wait.......you should make Morocco its own civ and Tunisia under Ottoman rule. and put some units in Poland and Russia!

 

[Ssharifi]

oops, i thought i did put troops in russia and poland. and as for tunisia and morocco, Tunisia wasn't under Ottoman rule till i think the early 1700's. and for morrocco, i just decided to make them ottoman. but i will change some things, and the new version will be up soon. Any comments bout gameplay? i suggest being either the Brits, Prussia or the Ottomans

 

[Ssharifi]

Alright, the new version is up.

Changes
*I gave the Russians more troops
*Moved Russian capital to Moscow(Moskva)
*Gave Poland more troops
*Changed a few city names in Prussia, Austria and in Sweden(Finland)
*Created the Morrocans

 

[Duddha]

Is there a reason why the Ottomans are way behind historically on the tech tree?

 

[Ssharifi]

Everyone in the game is in the Middles Ages with no possiblity of moving forward in science.

 

[Konta]

one thing i noticed is that st.petersburg should be the russian capital at the time

 

[bigmeat]

i likes it, it's fun for me to play

Comments:

- Calais I beleive belongs to Britain.
- Many names are wrong
- Saxony is based in Dresden, not Hannover
- Brandenburg owns Berlin
- The HRE should be dismembered, paticuarly in Italy
- The Netherlands was owned by Spain
- Russia was MUCH smaller and was based in Moscow
- Poland-Lithuania was MUCH bigger
- Some city placements are a bit off
- Some key cities are missing
- I beleive Naples was owned by Spain
- Scandinavia should be re-named Denmark and be Based in Copenhagen
- Austrias leader is Charles V
- Brandenburg's leader was NOT Alexander
- The HRE should be devided, but if anyone had to rule them, Charles V would be it
- Spain is ruled by Carlos I (Spanish for Charles V)
- Ottoman Leader is Suleyman I
- Ireland ruled by Britain
- Gaps in leader names and titles
- Map does not need to be of such a size

Still this does look promising, and if some work is done (like this long list) it can be a great scenario. I may look in my books and find all the leadernames for all these nations.

Brandenburg and Prussia were under the reign of Elector Joachim I. (1499- 1535).
