Yuezhi Spawn Point

[desert]

Hey, where do the Yuezhi appear, exactly?

In Xiyu? In Sai Yavuga? I ask because it is already 171 BC and my spy (who was stationed in Xiyu) hasn't seen anything yet.

[A Very Super Market]

It is supposed to come at the very NE territory of the map. The Saka starting point.

Have you activated the script, bla bla bla...

[desert]

I guess I'll check out Sai Yavuga then. I hope the Yuezhi are part of a real faction and not just Eleutheroi.

I'm not even going to bother with the script question. :D

[Cullhwch]

They're Eleutheroi. They were a real faction up until .80 I believe. If you don't own the very NE corner of the map, they'll probably just sit there with their elite horse archer armies and do nothing.

[desert]

Found them. And they're Eleutheroi.

What I meant Cullhwch, was that the Yuezhi are supposed to be part of one of the Western factions, like Lusotana or Casse.

They are supposed to be a Western faction? What?

[seienchin]

Yes, one EB Member said they were lusothanian or something like that, but I guess he meant their culture?? Im not sure how he meant it

[Rilder]

I think he was wondering what faction was implemented instead of the Yeuzhi

[A Very Super Market]

I'm pretty sure that the Saka replaced the Yuezhi. And the Saka replaced Pontus from stock RTW

[The Fuzz]

What units spawn with the Yuezhi? Just the usual HA or are there new units?

[Atilius]

That's probably a misunderstanding based on some notes in EBBS. Some of the scripting black magic done for the Yuezhi Invasion requires that the Lusotanannan, the Casse, or the Qarthadastim still exist. I won't get into the reasons why, but the Lusos, Casse, or Q are not maquerading as Yuezhi.

[MarcusAureliusAntoninus]

The Yuezhi spawn in the Tarim Basin, near Sulek.
They are controlled by the 'rebel' faction.
They are made up of mostly different types of horse archers, but I believe they have a few foot archers.

[The Fuzz]

Thanks for the information.

To the Yuezhi: bring it.

*dons hat*

[Cyrus]

But why xactly is it the Yuezhi were removed?

[A Very Super Market]

The Yuezhi weren't even in the EB timeframe as of 272 BC. They were replaced by the Saka, I'd say, who were around at that time, and then scripted to come as Eleutheroi at the historically correct date

More specifically, they probably weren't on EB's map during 272 B.C., and even if they were, they weren't interested in the west until they were booted out of their homes by China.
