How to make The Mongols spawn at Baghdad?

[arsatalvi]

Does anybody have the knowledge to make the Mongols spawn exclusively at Baghdad because I would like to enter a war of attrition with them now you have a 25% chance because they can come by Bulgar, Sarkel, Yerevan or Baghdad

does anybody know how to do it?

[Silent Assassin]

No sorry but they are scripted to arrive from their or more at the North near Sarkel. 80% of the time they will go where the player is, playing as Russai once they came North PLaying as any other faction and because I love crusades I always take Antioch they come directly for that city.

It might be worth a look at the campaign_script in Medieval II Total War\data\world\maps\campaign\imperial_campaign.

Theres some stuff about the Mongol's spawn location in there.

[Monsieur Alphonse]

You can edit the regions list. IRC there you can find that Antioch and Kiev are horde targets. Make Antioch the only horde target and the Mongols and the Timmie's will always home in on Antioch.

Once in my campain the mongols went to went to rome and conquered most of western europe and me poor old england eas stuck in the new world wile the scots tried to couqer europe from the mongols.

i always thought they spawn the closest to your regions as possible.

[Monsieur Alphonse]

i always thought they spawn the closest to your regions as possible.

Nope. They spawn near Baghdad, Sarkel or Yerevan. They then proceed to their horde target. Not always as fast as possible because if you ignore them they can wander around for some fifty turns. They can come straight at you or ignore you.

thanks Monsieur Alphonse I will try to see if it works

i didnt mean random spawn but thought either north east or east depending on your position; they usualy ignor rebel settlements.
