Preview Thread: DaNES II: In Search of a Decent Title

[Supermath]

All right, I'm in. Let's see if this lasts for more than two turns (*coughcoughThlayliandBombshoocoughcough*).

First choice: Cambrian Confederacy
Second choice: Kingdom of Walhia
Third choice: Ruxsalannoi Horde

Selected portions of NESing history:
DaNES I: Invaded and conquered Ecuador within a year as Peru.
NoP NES II: As Serbia, invaded the Ottoman Empire and occupied a large portion of Macedonia.
SerfNES II: Started rebuilding Mexico's economy after emerging from a violent civil war.
BombNES I: Playing Brazil, engaged Peru and La Plata to a peace on favourable terms.
TNES II: Managed to survive being next to Insane_Panda for two whole turns!
BombNES III: Currently invading (and beating) Chile as Argentina.

 

[Kentharu]

When you have time O great history pirate, could you do the factions of the following:

Aigyptos, Panormos, Persied, Aksumite.

 

[flyingchicken]

I'D LIKE INFORMATION ON THE VARIOUS Ruxsalannoi Horde FACTIONS PLEASE

You could probably tie it up with every other horse-riding barbarian faction as well.

 

[Justo]

Also add the Kingdom of Pisidia as a secondary claim for me.

 

[Espoir]

Dachs, if you're seeing a lot of overlap between the Medians as a whole and the Zoroastrian clergy, does that mean much of the Zoroastrian clergy is Median/Persian?

 

[Azale]

My poor Koreans are npc'ed

1: Dayang Dynasty
2: Perseid Empire
3: League of Patalene

THINGS I DONE: I've been NESing for 7 bloody years. I won puglover NES! I single handedly drove lmsw into insanity. As Nippon, I assembled a massive coalition in NKNES and drove into the heart of China to defeat alex. I did the same in KamNES as Abyssinia to defeat the evil Persians. I unified Italy as the Pope in NES2 IV (?) and managed to switch allegiances smoothly from Spain to France and I didn't get eaten until the NES went into the next thread. I totally killed Luckymoose in ASNES. I made an awesome matriarchal warrior-priest culture (the Jomon) in ASNES. I was on the frontlines against the Muscovite menace in stjnes5.

I did some other stuff too but I can't remember it easily off the top of my head. I've modded about a dozen nes', some of them actually lasting more than 2 turns LOL

THINGS I'M OK AT: I like to make alliances, friends, etc and I'm good at doing it. I'm easy to get a hold of. I try and get people involved in the NES. I know NESing isn't necessarily about going all Herm Edwards on everyone.

As Nippon, I assembled a massive coalition in NKNES and drove into the heart of China to defeat alex.

You did not defeat me. The turn it ended, I had just finished assembling a counter-alliance against you where two of your allies were about to betray you as they feared your growing power; at the same time, my religious fanatics were about to be unleashed upon you. You only had the upper hand, momentarily.

 

[Yui108]

Ahhh crap I came late to this... Is there anything powerful still open?

 

[Kentharu]

There are a lot of nations open. Also Dachs is doing nations on an application basis. Still a lot of steppe nations that are open.

 

[Yui108]

Yes I missed that...
Sorry Dachs.


Application : Yui108

First Choice: Kingdom of Kaspeireia
Second Choice: Yang Dynasty
Third Choice: Kingdom of Rygia

While I have less experience than many other NESers here, I think I have a good grasp over my two years here of all the basic NESing concepts. In A Brave New World I and II (the only NES I played in that lasted more than ten turns I think) I had the largest land empire in the world for as long as I played. While I am not the greatest historian on the forum, I have a great enthusiasm for the field. You should chose me as the leader of Kaspeireia because I am fascinated by the Greeks, and think that Kaspeiria offers both a challenging position, and one with great potential.

 

[Omega124]

I'm just going to wait until all the NPCs are open....

 

[Karalysia]

NoP NES II: As Serbia, invaded the Ottoman Empire and occupied a large portion of Macedonia.

The only reason you made any headway at all is because I decided to trounce Greece and Bulgaria first. Trust me if that NES had lasted longer you would have been part of the Ottoman Empire again.

 

[Shadowbound]

As the Germany, I can confirm what he said.

I assume Iberian marcher-lords are the military leadership, probably with their domains on the frontiers or in the recently-conquered south? The assembly is the Hatta nobility as a whole, and the Hellenic poleis are Greek cities on the coasts?

The title for the ruler is noticably blank. Would they be using a Seleucid or Greek title, or a Germanic one?

 

[Birdjaguar]

Here are the requests by nation. Each first, second or thrid choice is in [ ]. Two names in a [ ] means two people choose that nation for the same choice. ie NK and supermath both choose Cambrian empire as their first choice, but no one else even selected it. Please let me know if you see an error.

I hate to nit-pick up, and thanks for doing a nice job on that bird jaguar, but it's Yui108. It doesn't mean anything.

 

[Azale]

You totally owned me LOL! You are far superior to me in NESing and also are much sexier! USA #1

Thanks alex!

Sorry, fixed.

 

[Kentharu]

I feel so betrayed BJ

 

[Supermath]

Hey, note that I did not say I was going to win the war, I just said that I had occupied a good-sized portion of Macedonia, which is true as of the last update.
