A theoretical question

What would happen of another faction conquers 60% of the map? I'm playing as Sicilians and the English have conquered all of Spain, HRE, France and parts of Middle East and Africa. I'll post some screenshots later.

Good question. I would expect them not to have programmed conditions for the AI to win like that. You could perhaps play that game for a while and help the english out as mush as possible and then reload later to win yourself. If they do win, would it be like loosing a GA game?

Here are some screenshots:

They sure are big. I on the other hand don't have a large army but I have a good toasting crew.

Any suggestions on how to help the English in their conquest?

Conquer the world, except for england and then disband all your troops at once and declare war on them by attacking with a unit of peasants.

A good idea. I was thinking of leaving them for last. When I've finished all of them off I'll save and try that. Thanks for the suggestion.

I don't have an actual count, but I remember in my Italian game I turtled in a big way and apart from conquering the Sicilians and a little crusading early on I stuck to my homelands until well into the late period. My Spanish allies dominated the world, and by the time I started using the super-duper late period army I'd been building up to they controlled nearly everything except me and the pope. There were still two or three other factions with one or two provinces, but I'm sure the Spanish had well over 60% and the game just continued on.

I'm sure if another faction gained 100% it'd tell you (mostly because you'd be dead by then), but the AI doesn't seem to have a 60% victory option. Of course I could be wrong on this as my investigation is completely unscientific, but oh well. That's all I got.

As an avid early turtler I've seen some AI factions go big..all that seems to happen is at a certain point they get clobbered with masses of simultaneous rebellions.
