Chapter 5 – Dreaming of Sulawesi
I choose the Ship Boarding naval doctrine that increases my ability to capture ships at sea
1 Dec – Gems in Ceram!
1 July, 1488 – Chinaware in Ampon
1 April, 1489 –
Our ruler has passed!
Our new ruler is Queen Luana, 51, 4/2/3.
Our new heir is Iwalani, 4/3/4, age 13
15 April – Royal Marriage with Kuati
1 June
Two major things today:
Mil Tech 8 – Better infantry, I cam build Regimental Camps
Expansion idea #2 – I get a new trader! I can’t reach anywhere right now though
22 Jan, 1491 – I pull colonists from Ceram and send them to Kendari in Sulawesi Island, next to Buton and our allies.
22 April – Kendari has set up. I fabricate a claim on the adjacent Buton and declare war. My 7k vs his 3.
19 May 0 I route his army and begin the siege of Buton – my navy is in the adjacent Flores Sea
4 November - Buton falls!
Here you go!
As you can see Buton is another high development Spice province. Animist faith and Sulawesi culture. I have ordered a core here already when I took the screen. This small island chain to the south of Sulawesi is connected by a strait to Kendari, and we are east of our ally at Luwu and it’s two holdings. My next colonial Indies goal after bringing in Ceram and Ambon is to slowly bring in the valuable Sulawesi island now that it’s fully mine or my ally’s. Then to move into deeper into the Pacific as well so I can leapfrog deeper there.
