I'm sorry to break your groove Euchre, but this isn't a LP thread.

Good point.  Although, I'm afraid if I label this an LP, then I'll suddenly lose all interest in this game and reporting upon it.  :P

Still, I'll start a dedicated thread if I'm interested in sharing more exploits of the Reaver American Unity Empire.

Yeah, there's an automatic event to have FUSA / NCR DoW the Chosen One, but apparently they forgot that someone else could take over. :P.

DoW on them yourself and let the war begin!

(Speaking of which, the Chosen One should also seriously be buffed if the human's not part of the Jihad.)

Uh, no thank you.  I'll wait until Enclave is completely and utterly destroyed before messing with the Chosen One.

I should get something for managing to take over American Unity, right?  ;D

Also, will Reservation or God Machine ever get into the Final War?  They seem contently neutral for now.

As a final update, Kurtz tends to die and be reborn a lot.  I assume it is because Kurtz's starting province keeps changing hands, and the opposing factions repeatedly annex and liberate Kurtz.  Another fatality of the war, I guess.

New topic here.  I'm hoping that at least some people follow me in the move, I haven't had much luck in attracting attention to my LPs in the past.

That was easy. I wonder what I should do next. Maybe paint the Americas blue. Or take over Russia and colonize Siberia.

Personal Union and Vassalize everyone. Convert to Protestantism and take Roma. Remain a decentralized feudal monarchy that practices serfdom until the 1800s. World Conquest.

There are plenty of things.

One can only hope they never learn of Big MT.
I actually wish that Big MT was included in this mod, although it would go against the whole "Big MT not interferring with the outside world" thing.
I'm pretty sure Big MT is still an actual mountain at this point in the timeline, so it not being included makes sense. The Think Tank imply that they blew it up not too long before Elijah, Ulysses, and the Courier arrived.
The timeline is all screwy, though. Caesar's Legion is supposed to have been routed at Hoover's Dam and is suddenly in virginia, but Caesar wasn't even born at this point or something. Personally I wish they would make a new scenario set after the events of New Vegas, with House/Yes Man in charge of Vegas.
Question: What exactly is X Marks The Spot Beta? I never did find that out.
It's one of the nations that are supposed to appear at some point in the game, like the god machine. Sometimes they never fire but you can manually fire the events if you look for them.

Anyway, here's my doing.

Well, you got me beat.  I more or less stopped when my position became dominant.  But I'll probably go back in to kill the Spiders.  I've been busy.

Congratulations!

One thing about the Fallout Mod: Every nation starts out so small that it is relatively easy for most nations to gain dominance through rapid expansion.  There is no USA or USSR to really ruin everyone's day.

Spiders were hard, but personally I found the Enclave with 60k stacks somehow staying supplied despite being reduced to a single island to be the ultimate challenge. Battles lasted months, and it took years of constant bombing to finally eradicate them. From what your current 'won' state looks like in the other thread, you'll still have a hell of a hard time taking down the jihad among other things. Also, you're dependent on your alliance. It may be called American Unity, but that doesn't look like a bunch of nations capable of co-existing to me.

They co-exist because they can't break the alliance until our state-of-war ends, and I can hardly be bothered to erradicate the Enclave for a few tiny insignficant islands that hardly count as being part of North America anyways.  Thus the war goes on, and thus my "pals" are forced to co-exist.  That is how I invision the end-game, at least until we figure out how to nuke the Enclave's bases.

Thanks for the goating though, as it means I need to continue.  But forwarning that it will be about a week before I touch this game again due to commitments.

Oh, and don't worry about the Spiders, MetalSlimeHunt.  I need Florida for naval expansion, and I'm hoping the Spiders absorbed Manatau's naval tech teams.  So, I've got plenty of reasons to erradicate them.

I posted a relatively large (relative the rest of the posts in this thread anyway) history of my nation, then my computer crashed! Never mind. :(
Here's my Ashanti Empire using the Black Death scenario in MiscMods:

I cleaned up some areas, each country is named in their alphabet first and in the Latin alphabet second.

Can we get a bigger version of that picture? I can't read any of the names. (or at least have the Latinized name be first?)
Also, is Europe Muslim now? How'd that happen?

In the Black Death scenario it follows an alternate history where the Black Death was way worse than in reality and killed almost everyone in Europe, allowing Muslim states to colonize the area after the disease subsided.

When the game starts almost all of Europe is Terra Nullius. There are about three OPM Christian states left in the world.

Sure. The original image was much larger, my image host must downscale large files or something.

In the Black Death scenario there are only around three or four Christian states in Europe, though this increased over time due to other states converting. It's only within the last century or so that Christianity's been on a massive decline, the only significant Christian states left are Rumi and Novgorod. The only Catholic state left on Earth is a Japanese country on Kyushu who must have been converted by Aragon at some point I guess.
Faransi (France) is a Zoroastrian state and used to be a massive power until they got invaded simultaneously by Magyaristan (Hungary) and Al-Alemand (Germany) who are both massive pains in the arses.
