Most such sites will give you the code for adding the photos.

We should probably start suggesting sites.  Tinypic is one.

[Criptfeind]

Imgur is a good one.

[Zrk2]

I use imageshack.

[Mr.Person]

I use imageshack.

If you use Imageshack make sure to bypass their "no hotlinking unless you pay us" shit. This is seriously a dealbreaker, having to click on 30 thumbnails is really, really annoying. Just load the image up, right click, properties, there you go, there's your URL to post the image as. Or just use a different image-hosting service, I'd try Imgur first, then Tinypic, then Photobucket last.

I vote for the Golden Horde, because honestly the Byzantines are boring and Poland is easymode.

Perhaps just 'any horde'?

[Dutchling]

Timurids can be fun too. Just remember not to change your gov so forming Mughals will be impossible :)

[NRDL]

This looks cool, I want to see the Golden Horde.  I wanna see what they actually are, I've heard about them before in Paradox but since I don't have EU3 or any of the Paradox games other than vicky 2, I don't know who they are, what they do, and how fun it is to play them.

And yeah, conquer the world, absolutely no westernization. 

[MrSmiley]

okay any horde it is...the major problems with the hordes is the war exhaustion which rapidly builds up...that tore my golden horde empire apart. but i will start on the aar tonight. the faction will be a suprise!

[Heron TSG]

War exhaustion? You'll be fine if you don't fight any hordes. Against anyone else, just sack a city or two. You also don't gain monthly war exhaustion from being at war with non-hordes.

(As of Divine Wind, anyway.)

[MrSmiley]

okay....well here is installment A sorry about lack of pics, i forget until the end to take any


THE GRAND CHAGATAIN HORDE!

The chagatai are the most central of the hordes. They hold an empire in the rolling plains of asia and are reaching the beginning of their power. to the north the Khazakhs, who are not enemies, to the east the Qirat, who are also not hostile, to the west the Timurids, a vast superpower built on Timur the Greats conquests and one that will distract the Chagatais enemies, and to the South Delhi and India, rich lands of spice and manpower. The hordes aims will be solely placed on India and the formation of the Mughals but such a venture will not be without peril. Should another horde, such as the covetous Timurids, see the expansions of the Chagatai and declare war a bloody conflict could emerge and drown the ambitions of the Nomadic Steppemen. A risk will have to be made, a game of chance, by balancing defences against the bloodthirsty hordes on the all sides, and offences against the weak Princes of India.

1399-1406

The chagatai found themselves locked in their first war immediately, against the kingdom of Delhi. The grand army was sent into the fight but unfortunately, quick moves by both the Timurids and the Qirat locked down any provinces bordering the khanate. Shams-I-Jahan, the diplomatic khan, decided to wait and let the other hordes make peace and weaken Delhi, before striking and securing the necessary provinces. The court of that time, with famous scientists and diplomats discussing important matters in the Khans War Yurt, agreed completely with the khans decision, not through fear but through seeing the wisdom in the decision. Eventually the Qirat and Timurids found themselves distracted and made peace, clearing the way for an invasion. All of the provinces down to Delhi fell within a year,and at the close of 1406, the Khan sat with 6000 men in the very city of Delhi, mocking the 10000 strong army to the east. Now he would wait til the provinces were secured and then wipe the Indians from the face of the earth. The children of Humanities Scourge were proving themselves just as terrifying.

The Mongol Khanate sure died fast. Ming already has one of their provinces eaten away? Good for them, you might wind up with some big trouble in little China.

[MrSmiley]

1406-1415

The war with Delhi took a fascinating turn for the Chagatai, when Dulkadur formed a personal union with Delhi and declared war. It did not matter though as the hordes swept through India,their goal being the capture of Delhi, Lucknow,Agra,Jaipur and Panipat, the necessary provinces for the formation of the Mughal Empire.

As the years dragged on, and more enemies begain to mount up on the doors of the occupied provinces, Shams-I-Jahan begain to wonder if he would ever claim the Mughal Empire in his lifetime. Unfortunately he had forgotten to read the description of the decision, which clearly states you must have a military skill of 6 while he has only 4. The court neglected to point this out, for it would surely have destroyed the push into India. By 1413, all provinces had been claimed and now all it would take was a little waiting. Due to their war-like nature though, the khanates can never rest, not while peaceful god-fearing people are still alive! So more wars popped up, againts Bihar, Vijayinagar, Nepal and Gondwana but none could stop the invincible tribute-grabbing war machine.

Finally, by October 1415, the north of India had been taken and peace secured on the borders by tribute and concessions. The Kazakhs defend the Eastern border from the Ming and the Timurids still hold back the sultanates of the West. It seems as if the khanates may be split up and sundered apart but by all that is holy they are not done yet. Europe may still learn to fear the descendants of Genghis Khan!
