Moorish reconquista?

Alexander VI must be mad sitting in Rome.

Vikings, the true masters of the seas.



I suppose this happened when Nidaros became independent and the settler got wrongly displaced.

Wrongly displaced units are very common in the black sea. I've yet to go a game without some unit getting thrown into it.

Disclaimer: I've primarily been playing QMC, but I haven't made any changes to anatolia or the unit push code.

So, I'm playing a game as Tonga and Tahiti has become the Pacific Ocean production capital for War Elephants after acquiring an Ivory source from Ethiopia. Begs the question, should this be allowed?

 

[Leoreth]

Why not?

 

[TJDowling]

Why not?

I mean, I think it's awesome. But the idea of shipping hundreds perhaps thousands of elephants across the Indian Ocean and half the Pacific is a bit wild.

 

[Leoreth]

Well everyone knows it's just the Ivory being traded, the elephant is then reassembled in the destination city.

I wondered!

Alternatively, you take some giant turtles, bolt the tusks on and give them a grey paintjob.

Got another interesting victim of displacement when Phoenicia fell.



That poor guy is gonna be there forever. Might as well buy a couple houses and settle down. Two millenia later linguists will be stumped how the natives of Cyprus came to speak a weird Greek dialect with Chinese loanwords.

Tonal Greek.

 

[JHLee]

Yeah, a scout that got stranded in Sardinia helped me a lot in my China game. All those safe contacts with European civs.

Little update, the Arab spawn displaced our Chinese archer yet again, now he's moving back and forth on the two tiles of Crete

1. Start as Egyptian.
2. Build the Pyramids, generate a GE.
3. Found Buhen, research writings.
4. Walk a settler to India, settle on rice.
5. Boom! Lovely Dujiangyan.
6. Switch to Ethiopian.

 

[Tigranes]

Ethiopia has the second largest population in Africa so this ^^ is very fitting!

 

[Steb]

The Turks were invading in the East, and crises were now commonplace in what remained of the Roman Empire. But the people could take solace in knowing that the imperial glory was now extending ACROSS THE SAHARA

Heh, the Congress of Vienna, oh so very close to its actual real life history date.

1814? So very close? Google says it started in that very year.

Don't you mean it occurred exactly as history intended.

 

[Imperator Knoedel]

Huh, I was always under the impression it was in 1815, but maybe that was just when it ended.
