Questions about Mongols and their Horde

[Tokugawa]

Hey everyone, long time total war player, this might only be my second or third post ever. I just started playing Medieval 2 again with SS 6.2 and the recent patch. I'm enjoying the game and how much better it is than Empire. So, here are my questions. Do both the Mongols and Timurids come in 6.2, or it just the Mongols? Can you actually destroy the Mongols? What I mean by this is, they appear, take over some cities. If you then capture those cities, will they always revert back to the horde with a never ending supply of troops? If you kill the grand khan of the Mongols, do more immediately show up? Is there any way to completely wipe them out? I need to get my facts straight, yarg!

I'm not sure, but at least in 6.1 and 6.0 only Mongols exist. In 6.2 Ireland was removed, so perhaps Timurids have taken their place. I don't know.

Can you actually destroy the Mongols?

Probably yes, but they (as far as I know) must get some time to raid before they can be destroyed.

What I mean by this is, they appear, take over some cities. If you then capture those cities, will they always revert back to the horde with a never ending supply of troops?

They can't be destroyed before all of their generals spawn. If you kill them all before they get any city, it's possible to destroy them without losing a single settlement I believe.
I'm not sure but I think Mongols don't have supply traits before that event launches which makes them destroyable. Not sure though.

Did you have any easier questions?

Just the mongols are in 6.2. It is only in the RR/RC compilation submod that the Timurids make an appearance.

The Mongols in 6.2 are a LOT harder than in SS6.1 because a lot more stacks will show up and at different times to simulate the different historical Mongol invasions. But it is possible to kill them. There aren't an infinite number of stacks that spawn but there are an awful lot. Good luck!
