I'd love to see a colonial Qing play-through LOL

for the love of all that our sun graces with her touch, part 2 pls

Only 2.5k? You underestimate our power and cravings for cursed colonial Qing.

Imagine the europeans explorers arriving in the tribes, just to see some chinese advisors around "These people are under the protection of the Celestial Empire"

wombo combo

From colonizers to colonizees.

The Apocalypse

Probably not far from the truth. The semi-literate early 20th century warlord Zhang Zongchang was also a poet: "You tell me to do this. He tells me to do that. You are all bastards, Go f*** your mother."

I think you'll like part 2 then. It goes so much crazier than you'd expect

I know it's a tired playthrough, but pirate japan can make excellent use of colonial ideas. Making colonies both east and west is a comically easy way to expand your raiding opportunities from the deltas of india to the californian coast.

@@joelfilho2625 Why pirate Japan in particular when regular Japan literally has national ideas for colonization? lol

@@MundaneThingsBackwards Because you still have those same ideas, while you also can immediately raid every province within 3 sea tiles of a colony for loads of early-game money for even more colonies, not to mention the aditional naval force limit obviously helping to mantain said colonies.

check pinned, pretty sure it didn't always do that

​@@QuarbitGaming It has done that for as long as I have been playing, but that's not that long (since leviathan) Forming Yuan doesn't force you out of a horde, so for Yuan the strat works, and I've seen other people get those mixed up before.

​@@QuarbitGamingalways do unless you are tribal Qing

ah, that was it thanks

Hurricane 😐 Hurricane, Japan 😮

until my economy is mostly built, I keep maintenance down when I'm not at war so I can invest and snowball earlier I do like professionalism, I take it in every event. But since drilling is based on your army / force limit fraction, I find my force limit usually exceeds my actual army size by many times (likely because I dev mil pretty heavily), to the point where I'd rather just invest that money. And I find the drill bonus to be optional in singleplayer. It's nice, but it's unlikely to be the determining factor in most of my wars. It's the same reason I usually don't go for above 15% discipline. If my armies already suffice, I can sort out whatever I'm lacking in (like spending money on advisors for points, rather than on drilling) That's pretty much also the case for army tradition. I keep forts on in late game since I have abundant cash, but first and foremost money needs to be spent on far more important things.

my favourite imperial city

sure

There's a video to go along with commentary. It helps to look at what he's doing.

maybe 🗿

There was an old Jurchen dynasty named Jin around there previously.

​@@dominicjosepn2609 partially correct, there was indeed a Jurchen Jin Dynasty around the 13th century. The "Later Jin" moniker is used because when Nurhaci unified Manchu, he also named the dynasty Jin, hence the "Later Jin" to avoid confusion with the earlier Jin Dynasty That said, there's also another Jin Dynasty before the earlier 13th century Jin Dynasty, albeit it is in a different Chinese character (晉 as opposed to 金）

weak
