Man you and your cheating ass :/

And we do not try to be real life, as why would you ever play real life if you have one ? We play the GTA universe, and our players should try to live in the GTA world, not the real one.

Oh if you think I actually cheated, I said it ironically. It's a game option to have a bigger colonist size. I didn't edit any files or entered any cheat code whatsoever.

The name is now an arc from north america's east coast, down to mexico and then all the way up to the west coast

Yeah I know :( I still feel way inferior to your economic build-ups. That is one of the greatest problem I always have in my games. My economy is always so down that I can't afford any armies.

Hehe my economy was SHIT until I switched capitals in 1500

Coffee, Sugar, Cotton, and Gold are abundant in America. I have about 100 provinces or so, and most of them produce that. This combined with max Free Trade and Plutocracy, and a high level master of mint make my income about 500 ducats yearly.

I mean in general. You managed to reach for example the Holy Roman Empire by 1511 I think it was, while I was struggling and got to it like 200 years later. Just shows there is something really wrong with my gameplay.

It was something like 1600 actually... But I get your point.

Easiest thing to do is just move all the way to max free trade in early game. Doesn't matter which nation you are, it always pays off. Always.

Yeah but at which point is it actually profitable to start sending merchants to CoTs?

Tried to reach Pacific as early as I could - ended up breaking another record...

India, Vijayanagar. The Muslims control much of the territory of the once-powerful Hindustan and are showing no interest in stopping until they control all of our peninsula. The days of Asoka The Great are long gone, and the entire peninsula is completely divided. The regional superpower, Delhi, is locked in a devastating war with Timur's Empire and as such is unable to protect their religious brethren, Deccan, Gujarat and Sind from my inevitable onslaught to kick the Muslims out of Hindustan, for good.
My advisors have recommended me to liberate Raichur Doab and, with that, form a land connection with the province isolated from Bangalore, Goa.

The trade routes to Europe were disrupted with the Mongol invasions two hundred years ago, and we now know nothing about the state they're in. We are guessing, that without our spices and without the Chinese luxury goods, they have fallen into a state of anarchy and are in a state of perpetual war. All our attempts to re-establish connection have been blocked by the Muslims of Persia and Arabia.
On a related note, the trade routes to China have also diminished and, while maintaining connection with the Indo-Chinese peninsula, we have no idea about how the Chinese Empire is faring. The last we heard from them was them being invaded by the Mongols, and we fear the worst.



As the king of the state of Vijayanagar, things are looking good. I was able to recruit three advisors into my court to help me in my quest to liberate the area from Madurai to the valley of Indus. My son, Virupaksha, is not well liked among the populace due to his rather violent ways, but I believe that he will be a better ruler than I once he takes the throne, and I don't care what the serfs think.



In two short years the Muslim bastards have annexed the state of Orissa. I have been preparing for war all this time and am ready to attack Deccan. I have forged an alliance with my northern Hindu brothers from Bihar, in case Deccan proves to be too strong.
A Hindu liberation army has taken arms in central Deccan, and I am going to attack before the Muslims get to suppress them.
More news from the north - the Muslims of Gujarat have viciously attacked the Hindus of Rajput. It looks like the Hindus are getting the worst of it.



Things are looking well for me. The Muslims of Delhi have rushed to the aid of Deccan, but due to their war with Timur's Empire, they are unlikely to send any forces to Deccan. I am leading the Hindu Liberation Army against the Muslims in the province of Golconda, and I have trusted the Army of Bangalore to occupy Raichur Doab. A small force has also been sent to Telingana since the Muslims have no army to speak of in Orissa, and the more I occupy, the better.



In less than a year I have managed to occupy two of Deccan's provinces. Delhi is still locked in a war with Timur, but have completely rebuilt their forces - I hope that they don't send any down here. The army I'm leading, the Hindu Liberation Army, while victorious in two battles, has taken immense casualties and is now stuck in northern Deccan. Due to the pressing need of reinforcements, I had to raise a levy, seven thousand strong, and they are now moving to support the occupation of Orissa. The war is completely in my favor, I estimate a total victory in less than two years.




I have about 25 more screenshots, should I keep going or is no one going to read this?

I once saw Vijayanagar get really, really big in one of my games. They pushed over all the way to border with Tibet and all the way to Timurid shit around Indian peninsula.

Are they the ones who form Mughal Empire?
