Ottoman Empire Campaign

The moment that I waited for...for 2 months! The laptop that I got yesterday could play ETW! I started an Ottoman campaign since they are the only playable Muslim faction in the vanilla game.

I am overwhelmed by how different the game is!

I just realized that some Egyptian words are Turkish.

We use words like "Afandim" (sir) and "Mashi" (Ok)

Either they are Turkish or Egyptian Arabic that they took?

dude egypt is just a province of the ottoman empire

lol and good luck playing on a laptop

watch out for persia first btw

and that bastard country to the north, georgia

russia is easy to fight

I'm talking about real life noob. Heard of it lol? I'm talking about the language...I understand some words.

The laptop is pretty good. The frame rate is 60.

Also I just eliminated Georgia. They actually went as far as capturing Armenia from me...

Persia isn't doing much ATM...but Venice is retarded. Just sends small units at me to die.

dude DONT lower the garrison in georgia or whatever and start converting there .... that place will declare independence again as soon as it gets the chance too ... also dont let Russia beat the Crimean Khanate ... after protecting them like i was supposed to and taking Kiev from Russia, i got a ceasefire and noticed that the Crimeans steamrolled through Russia and even took Moscow ...

BTW Egypt is in the game. They are called Mamelukes. They need to rebel though.

Ok I'll try that for Georgia. But can't you just exempt them from taxes and thump be cool? Lol

Also Russia is calm in this game. Crimean isn't doing anything so far.

Dagestan, Persia declared war on me. Persia raided 2 towns in Mesoptamia.

Barbary states dragged me in a war with Morocco. Venice is trying very hard to take Athens...and thy are raiding me everywhere in the sea.

pirates

I captured the Venetian city that's next to Athens. Why aren't they eliminated? Do I have to destroy their fleets too? Or am I missing something?

I sieged Georgia's only city.


I lost.


I sent an army from my European lands and they sailed to Georgia. Captured!




Dagestan...


Captured it from Venice. But they still didn't get eliminated!




Conquered. Same army that conquered Georgia.

I captured Azerbaijan and Iran's capital (not shown on map).


I lost them and they took them back. BUT I captured Baluchistan. Prussia offered me 2 Techs and money for Baluchistan...why? It sucks I think.


I'm currently going to Afghanistan.

tip in battles:

let the enemy come to you ... don't charge at them ... or else everything gets screwed up .,... use your ARTILLERY

Ok

Is Afghanistan impossible to hold onto like I heard?

i never tried taking it

I just took it. Mughals offered me Kashmir for Afghanistan...should I accept?

yes!! Kashmir!!!

Ok I accepted..I also had to give them 1200. They also gave me four field crop rotation tech

u have an alliance with them right? have them help u take out the rest of europe lol ... try to get something going with Mysore too ...

No. They keep on refusing. And that's pissing me off since Kashmir is no longer connected to my empire and the Mughals surround it.

Mysores are Hindus right?

Mysore is Muslim

Mughals won't betray you

Just focus on Europe now ... eliminate those damn knights of "st john"

Lol that's my colleges name

Actually I want to eliminate the Venetian bastards...they spammed my sea near Greece. And fir now I'll try and eliminate Persia once and for all.

Alexandria just emerged as a new port.

Btw what do you do with scholars?

Mysore refused an alliance.

Russia took Dagestan.

I took Azberijan from Persia.

They never want an alliance with me. What gives?


After a long war.


Now

I re-conquered Dagestan from Russia.

I started building ships at Alexandria. I sent the ship out West. I could have went and possibly destroyed freaking Venice, who is destroying me at sea...raiding all my ships and ports...but instead I declared war on the Barbary States for dragging me in a war against the WHOLE world...they have like 20 enemies lmao. I landed in Libya and I lost.

That sucked.

Poland-Lithuinia and I are now allies.

um i didnt tell you to not keep ur alliance with them?

oops
