Here let me show you a few images first, and then we’ll back up and set the stage:
Note a few cool things:
1. You can see the stage is set with an introduction to the broken era of 1444 in the Philippines.
2. You can see my one-province holding to the left of the screen, with an uncomfortable tropical marsh, which won’t be easy to grow up, but the heavy trading riches of gems to make up for it. Note the big 9 development, which we’ll delve into later in the history of the area. Note that it’s not Hindu but Animist, so that is a mistake we’ll need to correct
3. Note in the 2nd image the continuation of the story. I also brought up the adjacent capital of one of our rivals.
We begin with 4000 army and 10 ships.
