Inaccessible Province?

[Samijew]

I installed BC shortly after the release, and most of the time, things been running smoothly and i have encountered few bugs.
I did stumble upon a rather strange thing which puzzles me, since I cannot figure out whether it's intentional or not. I have a feeling that it already has been covered in a previous topic (though i couldn't find any).
It concerns the province of Tibet.
When I played as the Rajputs, i realized shortly after having conquered all adjcent provinces to Tibet that the city/castle (if there's any?) of the province is unreachable. There are no mountain passes that allow access to it, and it is so far beyond the mountains one can't even figure out where it is.

Is this intentional or am I supposed to be able to conquer Tibet?


First post btw! I do Hope my English satisfies you native speakers!

Because Tibet contains Shangri-la and pious monks, you can only reach it if your piety is high enough. You must pray more my brother.

lol omg K_T that was hilarious

[Lebre]

tibet is unreacheable
same as siwa and saudi arabia

EDIT: siwa is but won't be acessible by water nor by land

[Samijew]

Thanks, i was just being curious.

[Tacit]

Siwa is accessible by water.

[Miraj]

It won't be anymore..

Also there's a city near Kwarezm only accesible (I assume) by water, KS never conquers it. :hmmm:

[Miraj]

Yeah, I've removed that province. Its a left over from the time when I used it to block the passage between Khiva and Itil. But now its not needed anymore.

[Samijew]

And the purpose of this is.... Historical Accuracy?
(IMHO that reason would be rather ridiculus, afterwards, what were the odds that the kingdom of jerusalem could conquer all of the middle east, which is possible, and should be so!)

[Miraj]

Purpose of what? The old Khiva to Steppe blockage? That was to generally to make Khwarezm focused on taking Central Asian and Iranian lands instead of meandering into the steppe.

I'm glad you think that historical accuracy is ridiculous, but really has no bearing on how we desire to build the map or strategic direction of the factions.

[Samijew]

Ok, fine

Well what about Karakorum, how do you get there ?
Is that the province you guys are talking about ?

You mean Karakum. Its not supposed to be conquerable and in 2.0 it's been removed.

[Sinan]

Yep, that's the one. Thanks.

[Miraj]

Sorry I meant in 1.1 its been removed. Not 2.0.
