Why without Korea??

[kairob]

I saw that once too, quite a while ago though...

 

[Lone Wolf]

I saw Greece conquer Seoul once.

 

[say1988]

I saw a lone Persian Immortal conquer and raze Soeul, while my Samurais were a turn away from it (they raced back from pillaging Chinese lands).

im playing a current game where the japanese, chinese, mongolians, and Khmer didn't get off to a good start. they're ALL in civil war. Korea is still thriving from this, as it was conquered by IMPI'S about 30 turns ago. it was taken by the Carthaginians a couple turns after that. ethiopia is trying to get it now.

now to the main idea, i think it is possible to add another city on the peninsula, Pyongyang. but no more than that. and maybe a "hunnic empire" to stifle the romans a bit. just an independent "Budapest" around the time they conquered Hispaniola and Illyria in OTL. it shouldn't be barbarian... but independent.

 

[Lokolus]

If you want Budapest you shoul'd add a Celtic city named "Ak-Ink" when it will become Roman it will be: Aquincum. If it becomes German it will be "Ofen". If the Turks conquer it the name would change to "Budapeşte" and when it will be German again it will be named Budapest.

 

[09camaro]

too many if's. normally i play as germany and i never lose a city.
so a celtic city wouldn't be good. independent would be better. using a translated version of the roman name of budapest.

 

[Lokolus]

The city was Celtic, so I think that if there is a Celtic civ, it should be used for "Ak-Ink" (Budapest)

 

[09camaro]

the huns were celts?

 

[Verily]

the huns were celts?

Huh? The Huns (who were not Celts) didn't enter the scene until 350 CE, way after we're talking about, and the Magyars came even later. The Celts, however, had settlements stretching from Anatolia (modern Turkey) to Gaul (modern France) as early as 1000 BCE.

 

[Lokolus]

the huns were celts?

The Huns were not Celts. Budapest was Celtic and after that was captured by the Romans and Huns.

 

[09camaro]

ok. my knowledge of the region was that it was only settled by the huns. who would later become the magyars after the turks invaded and interbred with them for a while..

 

[Zdarg]

For what it's worth, in my most recent game, Persia conquered Seoul.

Same here. But it fliiped to me (China) very soon.

Hi ,

the korean civ should warrant a bigger map , or maybe a special asia pacific only map , .....

aldo they have a great starting location they would need a high dose of luck in order to expand , ..... it would be nice to play a china , korea japan scenario , each with its own religion ( !! )


the map is just to small now to include the koreans , aldo the unique building can be included for a few cities there fron the natives , so can the UU for the native seoul to depend it , ....

if the map would be bigger and allow for at least three four cities on the peninsula , sure why not , ....

its funny to see a single mayan swordman try to conquer it , .....


Have a nice day

It would be nice to do a 1 city challenge with Korea, the location is ideal.

Hi ,

GOOD LUCK


want to take a bet on how fast you will be razed , .....


it seems the AI does not like humans there with all those resources , maybe if lucky you can make it to 1600 , if you start in 600 , ....

Have a nice day

Actually Korea was founded 2333 BC, though that's disputed. So Korea would start very early, one of the earliest civs up there.

Shucks, too bad..
I'm on vacation, though, so if anyone is willing to tell me the necessary steps to create a Korea, then I'm more then willing to try.

 

[Jinnai]

While I'm not anti-Korea there is not room for more than 1 or 2 cities if you rearrage stuff for balance over gameplay, but other more important East Asian nations are excluded and should be added first, if any:

Manchu, Bengal, Tibet, Dai Vet, etc. However there is really on room maybe 2 more civs, one in SEA and Manchu.

Korea and some of those other nations would be better if a Asian Map project similar to Europe were done. However it requires time and effort, though it's history has enough depth to make it just as viable as a European map.

 

[musicfreak]

I saw Greece conquer Seoul once.

I saw Inca conquer Seoul once.
Not really, but that would be pretty beastly.

In all seriousness though, Korea will not and should not be added. Unless Rhye adds a one-city challenge to the game (which he probably won't), the addition of Korea would not add any benefits to gameplay at all; it would only make the game less fun for any Asian civs.

I'm on vacation, though, so if anyone is willing to tell me the necessary steps to create a Korea, then I'm more then willing to try.

Chances are that if you don't already know the steps, you won't be able to do it. It takes a lot more than editing XML files to add a civ into Rhye's.

 

[Ajidica]

Not Korea related at all, but I thought an OT post would be better than starting a new thread.
My question is why isnt there more independant cities in eastern Europe. These could represent the Slavic culture group. It would be realistic as the land was already populated and other empires took the through military force. Thus you can represent Poland and the Kievian Wars of Expansion. From what I can tell, adding a few more independant cities wont slow the game down much.

There is already a thread on the same topic (one of many threads). Unfortunately our God have not deigned a comment on any of them.
