I order another 1k cavalry

Admin Tech 7 – New Idea Group. I take Expansion!

11 Sept – I begin building a spy network in Ternate

4 Nov – Tidore falls!

I annex Tidore!



Here is a map of my new area in the Indies. As you can see Tidore is a major acquisition for my nescient nation with that development of 3. I ordered a core for it. You can also see the peace deal, the stuff in Tidore, the location on the map, my current monarch power, and more!

Awesome possum!

1 Dec – My Dip is over 400 and I can get my next idea: Idea #4 +10% global settler.

Ternate announces us as a rival

1 Feb, 1479 – Mil Tech 7 – I can get artillery, and they get better.

15 May – I get an insult from Ternate, which we can go to war against them. We have the same size military (5k each) so I order 1k artillery and 1k infantry built in Palau and then ferried over to Halmahera

I declare Ternate as my rival

1 Dec – I complete the mission to build to my forcelimit. For 25 years I get better army results

12 Feb, 1480 – I have my troops in Halmahera and declare war on Ternate. My navy is in the Halmahera Strait

7 Mar- I win in Ternate. We begin the siege

4 Sept – Ternate is ours!

30 Sept –



Ternate is ours! As you can see it’s very developed and we have a lot of value from it’s spice trade. I order a core for it as well.

1 Oct - I completed my High Income mission and our economy grows for 25 years


Here are my goals for Pohnpei:

My Goals for Pohnpei!


#1. Establish us as an Economic Power
#2. Build our navy
#3. Explore the rest of the Pacific
#4. Colonize the nearby area
#5. Establish a thalassocracy - rule by the sea
#6. Control every Polynesian culture province
#7a. Own every island the Pacific ocean
#7b. Establish some islands in the Indies.
#8. Set up bases on both coasts
#9. Colonize every Pacific ocean holding
#10. Takeout every power on the Pacific ocean and control them.

With Halmahera, Ternate and Tidore in my cache, we have established a base of financial operations in the Indies as well as secured our economic power. I consider 1 and 7b finished. Although the Indies call out…

And maybe in a diverting way as a method to really establish a financial foothold.
