    So perhaps a Nahuatl Wallachia-Serbia-Hungary union of sorts.

    That could work. Though it's a shame that they would replace the Draculesti family.

    Replace Holy roman empire with Holy Nahuatl Empire, all nations are the same except state religion being nahuatl.

    It's difficult to make the states the same and just change their religion, because you can't actually name a custom nation something that's already in the game. So you couldn't just make France and change it to Nahuatl. You'd have to make like...New France and then make your changes.

    Also, said nation couldn't have an emperor, because it's hard coded they have to be christian

    Why not just have the Emperor have his home place somewhere funny, like Cyprus or stick in Greenland/Iceland or the Americas, for the Funny?

    Maybe a way of breaking up powers would be setting an increase in revolt risks. Like the Muslim religion has a 63% chance of any one area revolting, and setting it up for other religions as well. It's not like historically that some Christians attacked other Christians despite the Pope saying not to do that. Catholics acted Catholics in the Hundred years war after all.

    Game play limitations mostly. Custom Nations aren't considered part of the Holy Roman Empire unless their capital is actually IN the borders of the Holy Roman Empire.

    Yeah. I noticed that when first, I wanted to put the capital of Italy into Rome.

    I like the idea of Nahuatl vampires. They probably won't survive long surrounded by Christians and Ottomans and Mongols, though.

    Keep suggesting new nations, by the way. There's a few slots open and since I couldn't get this started this weekend, it will probably be next weekend before I have them all put in. (I wish you could save in the custom nation creation phase.)

    I thought there was a way to save and load them above the Delete/Done options. Granted, i've never actually used it. So I could be mistaken.

    Well, We still have spots in Africa, and in the pacific area right?

    Japan is already in conflict with the start of their "Warring States" period, that is supposed to end in 1600s with Ieyasu(Spelling is probably wrong) Tokugawa taking over to become Shogun, so don't to do anything there.

    Africa-We should trying forming some fun states here. One should be the Zulus, then maybe a few made up ones working up towards the top of Africa near to the Mediterrinean ocean.

    So let's go with the "Southern Crescent Sword", A Sunni/Shia Islamic Republic made up of Zulus controlling South African and a few nearby real African states. Several groups of Muslims arrived in the African lands, and converted many natives.

    Another in Africa could be "Neo-Judah", where the Ancient Israelites migrated to parts of middle Africa (Like Lake Victoria and Kenya) establishing a new kingdom of Judah like the one from the Bible.

    Between "Neo-Judah" and the "Southern Crescent Sword" would the realm of "Iron Chef America", a time displayed group dedicated to the ideals of the Iron Chef America show. Where competitions rage for the best Iron Chef daily.

    Oh, and no Africa is without the Pirates of the Ivory Coast, and Ethiopia plus Somalia. You should make them too.

    Maybe there also be a Jewish kingdom somewhere in Russia for the Ten Tribes that the Assyrians carried off.

    An Idea that is completely nuts:

    The New Hittite Empire) The Hittites are up again and share Turkey with the Ottomans and wondering what the heck is going on, since they are from when the Hittites where actually around.

    In fact, you could time travel different old BC powers into the world, and watch the humor unfold. Transport Assyria, Babylon, and Persia/Medes into the current times. That would be EPIC!!!!!, wouldn't it?

    I rarely play in Asia, so I have no idea how nonplayer Japan usually does. What I've found, however, is tat in the two games as Japan I played, one recently and one quite early, I can unite Japan reliably in less than 50 years. Sometimes much less. It's really rather simple. Just jump into every conflict between vassals and annex the loser.

    Okay, you know, since time-travelling Lombards were mentioned earlier, why not. Let's start this over with an entirely new idea.

    Famous rulers from history have time travelled to the year 1444 with a personal retinue. They quickly take over the local area around what was once their capital and begin to rebuild their empires, as around them, the existing states look on in some confusion.

    Give me interesting historical rulers. Any time period, can be after 1444.

    rulers, not states... Some areas that will be a bit hard

    send Sitting Bull back in time and see if he can hold off colonialism in North America

    put Quin Shi Huang in China to see how terrifying that area would be as a draconian military industrial complex

    let the Ottomans war with King Priam of Troy

    although Quin Shi Huang might be difficult because none of the in game religions remotely resemble legalism in flavor or mechanics

    Nobody mentioned the obvious? Caesar from SPQR annexing the Papal States and its environs, and starts a brand new Roman Republic/Empire.

    Also maybe have one of the famous Greek city states of antiquity (Sparta or Athens, take your pick) mooch off the Ottomans.

    If we're talking future to the past, then maybe Napoleon travelling back in time to enact the French Empire for good, this time. Maybe Attila the Hun as a horde in the middle of Germany but I don't know how that'll work out, considering he'd be surrounded by hostile powers almost immediately.

    I'll be honest, Considering how interest in this seems to have waned a bit since you switched to a new idea. I think some people were more interested in your original idea.


    Personally, I just wanted a new Europa Universalis thing to read...
