I'm wary about the fact that the HK option is the one with highest multiplier.


[X] [Focus] East, with the mountain pastoralists (1x)
[X] [Focus] North, against the growing Gylruv powers (1x)

[X] [Allies] Khemetri, trade rivals but not the Vortuga (1x)

I have no idea what is going on anymore. It's all gone crazy.
Out of interest are the Kielmyr Triple Crown related to the Storm People?
Presumably they're related to Amber road same as the Gylruv. Kielmyr is Scandinavia I believe, whilst Gylruv is Russia and the increasingly closer and more unified kingdoms and republics that live in that area.

[X] [Allies] People from the Spice Lands and Tea Lands (0.8x)

We need to get Txolla back anyway, so might as well start increasing travel

Kielmyr Triple Crown only makes sense if we attack Northwest.

Feels odd to support higher weighted options but this would paint a stripe down the continent of allied lands and that seems potent to me.

While I would love to either regain the lowlands or go north I think it's better to go eastward

Let me explain
Into the west lies Europe, expanding there, especially with the current religious troubles could easily lead to a crusade against us, especially if we go with the Khemetri there
into the south lie the lowlands, our unending breadbasket and undying battlefield in one, we could go there, but would have no allies and would have to once again contest the highlanders
Into the north we cannot expand because there lie the steppes and thus nomads and we don't have enough guns yet to simple slaughter them all, nor are our allies there good for fending of the nomads, even if I would love to see how our nothern kin developed
If we go into the east however we could safely expand there, regain our eastern lands and thus minerals from the Horse mountains and if we make allies into the east, maybe even gain a trade monopol of spices and tea leaves

Therefore
[X] [Focus] East, with the mountain pastoralists (1x)
[X] [Allies] People from the Spice Lands and Tea Lands (0.8x)
Adhoc vote count started by sidestory on Feb 19, 2018 at 4:51 PM, finished with 157 posts and 53 votes.
 
So, you all sponsored the spread of not-Protestantism into the northern not-Europe countries with direct access to the not-Atlantic. I wonder how that's going to play out, hmm?
War, war, and war, until they tire of it and develop Humanism and Enlightenment. Which are close to the old Ymaryn values now that I think about it. Maybe we'll re-develop the old shaman-researchers?

Put the squeeze on HK and lowland with alliance with Not!India and Not!China. Alliance with amber post is also cool.
Edit: focusing on east-south to avoid the European firestorm we setup. Come back after ashes have settled.

Not sure exactly why people are picking !notSweden if they don't plan on trying to take over Europe.

Triple Crowns is effectively worthless as an ally unless we plan on moving heavily into the European theater.

Considering the fact that most people are also voting to go for the Lowlands, this doesn't seem to be the case.

If this is about contesting Vortuga, consider voting for the Khemetri, who can contest them on the Mediterranean and are closer to their home land in Iberia, or China/India, who can proactively fight again their encroaching trade and imperialism.

This is basically a vote for "South, Kielmyr" due to vote weights.
