*Looks around...

*Waits for Lawrence to post his Iraq screenshots...

Or maybe Korea.

But wait, there's more - I still have over half a million more soldiers to spawn!

We Send Our Greetings to Infidel from Rum.

Too bad I only have two armies.

I could create more, but once you have more than 75 units in one stack it takes a long time to do anything with them.

lulz

Since I only control most of Europe and North Africa, this is a bit much.
At least in your Iraq game you control the world.

So I win for soldier density by far.

He actually did control the world using Iraq...

Which is why you can't compare his armies to mine. I own a much smaller piece of earth and still have an army with 1.5 million men or whatever.

Well, I could enlist mercenaries until my coffers dispensed dust, but then again, I make 2000 a month and 6000 at the end of the year.

Besides, you owned Europe. By the time I did get to control all of Europe I had the rest of the world. Not to mention that you are 3x over your manpower. So you either recruited a lot of mercenaries or you just recruited men until you hit the supply limit.

They're in Roma, but their supply limit is only 71,000, which is why the attrition is at 5%

239k/251k
654k/685k
9.5k/10k

I have 100,000 more troops out over several islands.

How did the Inca and Aztecs become greater then ming?

**hellheaven1987** · May 06, 2008, 03:01 PM

They probably cheat.

I never heard Inca Empire got cavalries before westernization.

If I released a nation, and then played as them for even a month, the AI will recruit regiments in batches of 200.

I really don't like loading up because it takes a long time to load EU3.

Nice one DarkProphet.

**Nutsack** · May 06, 2008, 07:00 PM

I think he might be playing the Whole World mod. I played that game until I discovered that all civilizations seem to develop at the same rate, and that the Incas were kicking the Europeans out of Brazil.

**LSJ** · May 06, 2008, 07:45 PM

I am using the Whole World Mod.

The Mayans always create colonies in Africa, the Aztecs kick the Europeans' and everyone else's arse in North America, etcetera. I like it since it greatly slows down the expansion of the Portugese and Spanish, giving me a better chance at taking the New World and conquering the Iberian peninsula.

Although it removes any remaining sense of historical accuracy you'd find in vaniller EU3....
Still fun though.
