Ireland v Scotland

Well pick one.

Ireland is the less historically accurate choice, however, it may fit better into the game, due to the Irish Straits and the lower chance of the AI taking over England with them.

Scotland is historically accurate, however, it is more likely to take down England while under AI control and is much more similar to England and so has a less unique gaming experience.

I am tied between the two. I would slightly prefer scotland, howeve, If it means England always geting destroyed then Ireland.

Edit: I voted Ireland, because on reflection, it might be better for gameplay, as AI doesn't invade across water too often.

That is why I am unable to vote, I am unable to decide which is better. I think I am biased towards ireland because of my Irish heritage and Irish Soda Bread is soo good too.....

I am thinking that in spite of that if we are not skinned alive by historians and Ranika, Ireland is the better choice...

I know, I was originally backing Saranalos on a Gaelic Federation, and he managed to persuade me over to Scotland. Whichever one we leave however, we definately will use them in Feudal.

Oh, BTW, I sent you a pm.

Ireland or Scotland is find by me; the confederation idea was the most irritating. As for how I view it, I am inclined to vote for Scotland for historical reasons, but the gameplay considerations are pretty valid. So I'll flip a coin and vote later.

Hey I was never for the Gaelic Confederation I was just for Ireland. I think if we have Ireland in the game we might be able to squeeze some scottish mercenaries in because as far as I know they were used regularly(correct me if i'm wrong on this).

Well, if nobody else votes, its your decision. After all, you are the Team Leader.
