    Default Should the Persians replace The Golden Horde?

    Well, if you read my last post in the "A major idea for the Mod" thread, I am suggesting we put in the Persian Principalities instead of the Golden Horde. I have worked out the culture groups as well. Vote on your opinions.

    hard to tell
    the mod is about the renaissance so it's going to be somewhere between 1350 to 1600 ce , if so , the golden horde is a dying empire and the persians are one of the 2 strongest empires in the near east , so the choice is clear . but , the problem is muscovy or moscobia (russian empire) - they are left all alone , from the edge of the map to polska ... hhhmmm............. it's going to be very easy for them to conquer the map
    damn with the hardcoded limitations !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11

    imho if we have from the british ils to greece 15 to 18 factions and from greece to central asia only 3 to 5 factions - the mod is unbalanced so please choose persia and the golden hord and cast aside one of the european factions like portugal , a kingdom that never played a roll in european chess (only in america and africa)

    No, I think we should keep the Golden Horde. I'm not even sure if the Persians existed when we start the mod.

    K i just did some research on the Persians. The Persians were under the rule of the Golden Horde from 1219-1500. Then a new Persian empire was born. So this date is very close to the beginning of the mod. If the governor of Otrar didn't kill the envoys they would have survived.

    The mod starts in 1402, so it's 98 years later that the persian empire is born...

    Both. Take out some boring European faction.

    10 to 3 dedicated, 4 not so sure.

    I would say keep the GH, at this point they were still a major player and will be more aggressive than rebels and people can try to pull the GH back from the brink in SP.

    But the GH will not threaten anyone at all.

    You could always make them be agressive so they wouldn't crumble.

    The GH will definately be able to threaten people, not necessarily from the very beginning but they will be a major obstacle to Turkey and Russia.
