    Default What are the factions that you have never tried?

    Hi. What are the factions that you have never tried in M2TW? And why?

    In me case I hate the Byzantines, I have never tried them, neither their units atract me nor their position in the map, besides I don't like their units and color. And I don't like Poland, Russia and Hungary.

    So these are the factions that I have never tried: Byzantines and Poland. Hungary and Russia in a few turns I abandoned them.

    To play as the Aztecs you need to scroll down to the Aztecs' line in descr_strat.txt and delete the "undiscovered" line.

    As to the factions I have never tried:

    Turks
    Hungary
    Denmark
    Scotland
    Russia

    You need to access the console to play as the Mongols or Timurids. I'm sleepy so you'll have to look up the details yourself but it is possible to play as them when they arrive by handing over control of your selected faction to the AI then switching to the emergent faction. The game will then run its course until they arrive.

    No because your mod artifically adds them and gives them land they shouldn't own. Using the console method requires no mod and allows you to play them as they emerge just like in vanilla and real history. You might need to mod them a bit to give them access to all their units from custom battles and imams, hashashin etc though.

    Never really played a campaign as: The Moors , the Mongols, Cuman Khanate, Kievan Rus, Republic of Novgorod.

    My favorite factions in order:
    1. Scotland
    2. France.
    3. Spain (kingdom of Leon)
    4. Byzantines
    5. Sicily (you can read all about my current sicily campaign in the AAR section of the forums )

    Coincidence that most of the factions I dislike are in the north/east.. and moors.. blehh.. never really liked them...

    I tryed to play them, but stuff they get in beggining are too complex for my simple mind, i preffer starting with small factions, so everything is where i want (or atleast i know what to do)
